Buffy laughed when she saw Angleus slide on his tight leather clad butt that evening. They had just finished rehearsing the opening sequences which had her character Kelly's voice over, while Angelus's character, Zack, was walking down a long black stair case dressed in leather pants and a white wife beater. The scene seemed pretty weird to Buffy, for an opening scene, but hopefully the difference would catch the audiences attention.
"You think that's funny, huh?" joked Angelus, surprise to find himself smiling right along with Buffy. He brushed his dirt covered butt off, and tired not to laugh at his own clumsiness. Dawn's advice to him was actually paying off. Buffy hadn't walked away from him all day. Now looking at her, with green eyes sparkling with laughter Angelus found himself liking her, possibly more then liking her.
Buffy shook her head playfully," Are you alright?" she wondered still grinning like a fool. She had to confess to herself that today was going a lot better then she had expected. Angelus seemed to be trying harder to be generally nice to her. That in itself shocked her, and made her see that maybe there was more to Angelus then first glance.
"I'm fine," responded Angelus delighted she had asked. "I think, we get a break in thirty minutes," played Angleus watching the reaction of Buffy's smooth peach kissed tanned face, for any expression which might tell him a head of time what she was going to say.
"We do," agreed Buffy clasping her hands together lightly. "You have any plans," she asked slowly staring to walk towards her baby blue resting chair. She knew Angelus was trying to read her expression, and she was going to some fun with it.
Angelus took a confident breath and proceeded with his advance," There is this Spanish Restraunt called 'El Pedro'. They serve the best spicy chicken and rice dishes out there. In fact, Connor and Dawn make me take them there at least once every week," he explained sitting down in his black and white chair next to Buffy's baby blue one, which she now occupied.
" Is Dawn and Connor your brother and sister?" directed Buffy picturing the two young teenagers Angelus had with him last night.
"Yeah, they are," returned Angelus leaning over the side of his chair. "Dawn and Connor are twins and they go to Hemery High," he added brimming with pride at talking about his siblings.
"Really," wondered Buffy, and felt her heart take a little more of Angelus due to the softness her eyes saw when he talked about his brother and sister. "My sisters Kennedy and Molly go there too."
"What grades?" responded Angelus interged that he was actually having a normal conversation with a beautiful young woman without, the thought of getting her in bed in his mind.
"Well Molly is a Sophomore and Kennedy is a Junior. My littlest sister, Amanda, is in kindergarten," answered Buffy having a nice time. Who knew Angelus could actually talk about something other then getting a girl in bed.
"She was the little girl you were with last night, right?" prompted Angelus hoping that the little girl had been Amanda.
"Yeah, that was My Mandy," beamed Buffy. "So…," she began, but blushed the minutes she heard her stomach growling. "Sorry," she apologized as Angles smiled at her. "I guess, I'm more hungry then I originally thought."
"How about I treat us dinner, then," delivered Angelus taking the plug.
Buffy thought a moment, a little to long for Angelus's nervous nerves, but when she smiled and nodded her head, he found his heart speed up," That would be really nice of you," confessed Buffy standing up.
"Let's go then," voiced Angelus standing up as well, taking the honey blonde's hand into his, as if naturally he leaded her out of the studio and across the street.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"Wow, you're Buffy Summers," squealed an excited teenager girl with her friends, the minute Buffy and Angelus sat down at a white and red table for two.
"Yeah," spoke Buffy politely. She was use to this by now, and looking over at Angelus she could tell that he too, was use to being interrupted when in the public's eye.
"I just loved your last movie," confessed a red headed girl. "You were incredible in it," she rambled on to Buffy as Buffy herself shared a look with Angelus of happiness.
"Thank you," replied Buffy taking the pen and paper two of the other girls had handed her to sign her name. It always amazed her at how many people actually knew who she was. One minute she was a nobody starting her Freshman year at Hemery and now everyone she met seemed to know who she was. She figured by the way the other two girls in the group were talking a handsome Angelus that he too knew what she was thinking.
"Are you two going out?" asked the orginal girl once Buffy had handed back the piece of pink paper she had signed for the girl.
"We're working on a new project together," confirmed Buffy sitting back against her chair, and caught Angleus staring at her as if she was the only one in the room, the thought that he might be thinking that made Buffy blush against her better judgment.
"When will it be out?" asked another one of the excited girls bouncing up and down on her feet.
"Probably next year sometime," informed Angelus as a waiter came up to them and ushered the girls away from the two actors.
"I am so sorry, Mr. O'Connor, Miss Summers. I tried my hardest to make sure all my famous guest don't get trampled with others," stammered the waiter, who was the son of the owner of the restraunt.
"Not a problem," Buffy assured the young man, who looked to be about her age. "I am completely fine with talking to fans," she added making sure the guy didn't feel to bad about this episode. "I mean it goes with the territory."
"Thank you," said the waiter with gratitude. He was glad that the honey goddess wasn't about to chew his head off, and to be completely honest he was a little perplexed that Mr. O'Connor hadn't began his usual comments about tightening security for the famous. Today the young man seemed light and happy. 'No doubt' thought Pepe,' It has to do with the young goddess her is with.' "How may I serve you?"
"I'll take the usual, Pepe," Angelus informed Pepe without even looking at the waiter. All his attention was still on Buffy, she seems to be so nice to everyone that talks to her, and carries that aurora around with her. Quit a change from the other woman he had been with or hung out with.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
"So that was a nice dinner," commented Buffy a hour later as the two of them made their way back to the studio eating vanilla ice cream cones. "Thank you for the dinner and the company," she said. Spending time with Angelus alone had been something Buffy hadn't expected at all, it had been fun, and it felt really nice. Part of her was even hoping that maybe just maybe he would try and ask her out again.
"Not a problem," stated Angelus subconsouly taking Buffy's hand into his once more that evening. He had surprised himself to find out that spending the last hour with Buffy had been on of the best hours he had spent with any girl in a long time. She had captivated him, and he knew it. She seemed to be nothing like all those other girls who he had dated or slept with. Buffy seemed to have this aurora around her that made her completely seemed amazing when compared with other actress.
Buffy curled her small figures around Angelus warm hand," You know my family is having a cook out this weekend. Why don't you bring your family and we could hang," she offered surprising not only herself with the invite, but Angelus as well. 'Where did that come from,' she wondered as the two entered
"That sounds like a nice invention," responded Angelus. "Dawn, Connor, and I would be honored to join your family for lunch with your family," he accepted.
"Good," Buffy said delighted he had excepted. She let go of his hand and followed her custom designer into her trail to change for the scene that was coming up in thirty minutes. Sharing a smile with Angelus before she disappeared into the into her dressing room, Buffy found herself excite at the thought of seeing him again soon!
