"I want vanilla," Amanda yelled, jumping up and down beside Buffy as the two of them stood at the counter of Kendall's Ice-Cream Castle.
"Okay," laughed Buffy sharing a grin with the teenager at the counter. "One vanilla and low fat strawberry yogurt," she ordered.
"No, wonder you don't have any fat," commented an all to familiar male voice.
Buffy shook her head at the handsome man behind her," Angelus, I didn't thnkyou were into ice-cream," she stated taking Amanda's vanilla cone from the drooling teenage girl.
"You will find, Miss Summers, that I am full of surprises," returned Angelus placing his trademark half grin on his face firmly. He had to admit he had been shocked to see Buffy here. Out of all the ice-cream shops in Los Angeles, Dawn had to pick the one Buffy was at. He smiled to himself, it just gave him more time to work on getting her into his bed. She was looking hot, in that tiny white sun dress and canvas sandals, her hair falling in waves down her back, she was a goddess.
"Bro, drool,' spoke up Connor snapping Angelus out of his ogling of Buffy.
Grinning Buffy couldn't resists a comment," Awe… do you need a bib?"
Angel growled at her comment," Buffy, I never need a bib and I never give up. Come end of the movie you'll be begging me to get into my bed, just like all the others."
"Confident, aren't we?" directed Buffy leading an already messy Amanda over to a booth to get some napkins for her face. The little five year old giggled when she noticed her big sister was getting this guy in front of them good. He looked like he was about ready to explode in anger.
"You know it," redirected Angelus as Connor walked away to order. "So how about tomorrow night we relax after shooting?" he asked slipping his hands on to Buffy's waist.
"Did I say confident?" wondered Buffy," what I meant to say was conceded," she said firmly, placing her hands upon Angelus' hands and removed them from her hips.
"Angelus, what kind of ice-cream do you want?" inquired Dawn deciding to save her brother from further embarrassing himself. She loved her big brother dearly, he had always been there for her and Connor. They knew he was a big teddy bear underneath all that connectedness, it was to bad that others didn't always get a chance to see it. Judging by the looks of her brother's latest interests, Dawn had a feeling that this girl just might be the acceptations.
"Chocolate Chip," answered the dark brown haired man turning to look at his little sister.
Buffy took that opportunity to sit down across from her little sister," Mandy, hit you mouth, not you cheek,' she instructed the little girl playfully.
"I am," insisted Amanda with a mouth full of vanilla ice-cream. "Doesn't you ice-cream taste good?" pointed Amanda causing Buffy to look down at her melting yogurt.
"It taste good, Sweetie," Buffy assured her catching a glimpse of Angelus being pulled over to a table with the young man and woman who had talked to him.
'Must be his family,' thought Buffy taking a bite of her yogurt. He looks really good, to bad he's so egotistic,' she let herself think as Amanda talked about her day at school, and how she was entering a gymnastic meet next month.
"Buffy, can I come to the set with you?" displayed Amanda finishing her ice-cream. "I don't have school next Tuesday, and Mommy and Daddy said I could if it was all right with you."
Buffy focus all her attention back to her littlest sister," We'll see if that's allowed okay," she reasoned gently. Sometimes she could bring her sisters to work, and other times she wasn't allowed too.
"Why won't you go out with, Angelus?" a satisfied Amanda asked plainly catching her nineteen year old sister by surprise.
"Because," begun Buffy trying to explain it to Amanda so she would understand," he hasn't asked me nicely. I don't like to be talk to the way he has been talking to me."
"If he asked you nicely would you go out with him?" pushed Amanda swinging her legs back and forth.
Thinking a moment Buffy came to the conclusion that more then likely she would go out with him. If only, he wasn't a jerk every time he was near her," I just might," she declared to her baby sister. "We'll have to see what happens," she added more to herself then to Amanda.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"Angelus," snapped Dawn shaking him out of his gazing at Buffy as she giggled at something the little girl with her had said. 'Must be her sister,' he concluded remembering their conversation from earlier.
"You were saying?" remarked Angelus looking over at his sister.
"I was saying," sigh Dawn gaining a grin from Connor, she couldn't believe that Angelus didn't hear a word she said. "If you want Buffy Summers to even consider a date with you, you need to work on your approach, partly watch what you say," advised the sixteen year old having the feeling that the honey blonde could be the one for her brother, if only, he would lose the arrogance attitude. Then he would stand a chance at winning Buffy's heart or heck just a date to start with.
"My approach is fine," defended Angelus looking over at the honey blonde once more.
"Angelus, I love you," said Dawn truthfully," your brother, but honestly, I feel, you treat girls, who aren't me like objects," she confessed causing Angelus to whirl his head back towards her," and that's what going to cost you a lot in the long run," she finished taking a sip of her chocolate milk shake.
"I'm not interested in anything serious, claimed Angelus not liking where this subject was heading.
"So date," encouraged Connor," just consider the girl's feelings once in a while he agreed with Dawn, Angelus needed to do just that.
"Fine," grumbled Angelus considering Dawn's statement. "I'll try a different angle," he promised gaining a triumph grin from Dawn.
"Good," confirmed Dawn digging into her strawberry yogurt.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"Mom, I'm off to work," shouted Buffy the following Monday walking past the kitchen.
"Have a good day," responded Joyce Summers sharing a secretive smile with her husband. Things were changing and she could feel them.
Grabbing her car keys to her new Sports Car, a gift from her rich Uncle Giles, Buffy said good-bye to her sisters and headed out. Today was her first day on the set of 'Timeless' and she was determined to make the best of it. Hopefully, Angelus would be nicer then before, and working with him wouldn't feel like pulling teeth as it had with working with Riley Finn.
Arriving in the parking lot, she parked her car and took a calming breath before entering the studio.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Angelus had seen her walk in before she saw him. He planned to try out some of the suggestions that Dawn and Connor had made to him last night, and hopefully one of them would work.
"Good morning," greeted Buffy when she noticed Angelus standing next to the coffee machine staring at her.
"Hi," said Angelus simply trying to watch what he said. "They have really good chocolate donuts I am told," 'How lame are you,' thought Angelus at his attempted at a new approach.
"Would you like to get one?" offered Buffy smiling at Angelus's effort. 'Maybe he wasn't so bad after all,' she thought when he nodded his head. Together they walked towards the long black snack table in the corner piled high with every type of donut you could think of.
Maybe today would be good day for a new beginning for the both of them.
