Will be B/A and later on Giles/Jenny Takes place in the beginning of season 2 and goes AU from there. Confusing I know. Read and you'll understand
AN- I am still working on my other fic I just felt like I wanted to start this one too.
Angel was trying to concentrate on the assignment the teacher had given him but his eyes kept drifting back to Buffy Summers. She was sitting by the window and the sunlight gave her some kind of angelic glow. He shook his head at his own thoughts and turned back to his paper. He had never been around girls his own age before; actually he'd never been around anyone his own age before. His whole life he'd been surrounded by British men, old British men at that, old British men who thought very little of children. So he'd learned fast not to act like a child. It would only get him punished. He never had toys or friends. He'd never eaten cookies or candy or played any games. He trained everyday and he read and he ate whatever everyone else was eating and he sat at the large table and listened to the boring conversations of the watchers. He hadn't had a childhood.
"Mr. Donnelly as you seem to be on another planet I'm going to assume you finished your assignment?" the teacher asked snapping him out of his thoughts.
"No miss I'm not" he said picking up his pencil, ignoring the snickers of the class. He'd never gone to real school either.
He sat alone at lunch. As much as he liked to pretend it didn't bother him he wished someone would walk up and ask him to join them, or at least say hi to him. He may have never attended school before but even he could realize only the dorks sat alone at lunch. He moved what they liked to pass as food around on his tray and for the first time found himself wishing for a scone and tea.
"Mr. Donnelly" a British voice said coming to stand in front of him. For a minute he felt like he was back with the council. Getting in trouble for having his elbows on the table. But he wasn't. It was just Mr. Giles the librarian and Buffy's watcher. Of course Mr. Giles didn't know he knew that.
"Yea?"
"Can I speak to you in the library?"
"Uh sure" Angel said getting up and dumping his tray of food. Not like he wanted to eat it anyway.
"So what's up?" Angel asked once they had entered the library. Giles turned to him and smiled
"You know who I am. And you know who Buffy is. And I know who you are"
"I kind of figured the council would clue you in sometime. They told me not to tell anyone until I was sure you guys knew for sure. So...what now?"
"I was thinking you could come to the library after school. Willow, Xander and Buffy will be here"
"Willow and Xander? The red head and the guy who were here yesterday? They know who she is?" Angel asked
"Yes I'm afraid Buffy was never very good with the secret identity part of the job"
"Hey I'm sure I would have told someone by now...I never had anyone to tell" he said quietly but then smiled
"So what are you guys like some supernatural crime fighters?"
"Yes. I believe Buffy refers to us as the Scooby gang" the British man said with a wry smile
"The what?" Angel asked
"I'm not sure. It's some type of pop culture reference I believe"
"Oh not so good with pop culture myself. Any way I'll see you later". Giles watched him go and felt a rush of emotion. He had just held an entire conversation with his son for the first time...and he was seventeen years old.
Buffy was surprised to see Angel sitting at the library table when she came chatting with Willow and Xander,
"Hey guys"
"Hey Buffy" the three teenagers said and Giles came out of the office sipping his tea
"Buffy there are some things we need to discuss about Angel"
"He was the one following me wasn't he?" she asked putting down her bag
"Yea...look I didn't mean to freak you out or anything. I'd heard a lot about you I needed to see for myself," Angel said
"Heard about me where? I have a feeling you aren't just your average Joe teenage boy"
"Not really. Um Mr. Giles you want to explain this one?" Angel asked.
"Of course. Buffy I received a call last night. It appears that Angel is also a slayer. He is the only male slayer in the entire world. His birth was prophesied hundreds of years ago. He grew under the care and direction of the Watchers council" Buffy listened curiously watching Angel. He was staring into space and was holding the ring around his neck tightly in his fingers.
"So why send you here now?" she asked. Angel snapped out of his trance and looked at her
"I think it may have something to do with you dying"
"But I didn't stay dead!" she said defensively. He shrugged and she frowned
"This is cool. Two slayers. I mean this'll make things a lot easier on you Buffy" Willow said
"Yea I guess" the female slayer said quietly.
"I could patrol with you tonight" Angel volunteered. Buffy smiled
"Okay, meet me at Restfield cemetery at 8:00"
She felt him before she saw him. She waited till he was a few feet behind her then turned around and smiled. He grinned and waved at her. He was wearing the same thing he had been at school. Black baggy pants and a brown t-shirt
"Hi" he said coming up to her.
"Hey" there was an awkward silence before Angel asked
"Are you cool with this.... I mean me being here. I wouldn't want to you know...crowd you"
"Don't worry I'm very cool with it. I'm kind of hoping you being around will ease the workload for me a bit"
"I'll try my best but just so you know vampire and demons kind of gravitate towards me. I think it has something to do with being a slayer and the son of one of the most powerful witches of all time"
"Really? Can you do magic?"
"Simple stuff. I'm capable of more but they would never teach me anything back at the council. I'm not sure why. Safety precaution I guess in case you know one day I decided to like kill them all or something"
"Okay.... you live by yourself?" she asked as they started to walk along the path.
"Yea. I've got an apartment on Bridge Street"
"Bridge Street?"
"Yea people at the council tend to be penny pinchers"
"I know what you mean. Giles is so cheap. You should see his car"
"Nah he's different. He's a lot nicer then the other watchers"
"Well well what have we got here? Two slayers for the price of one?" a deep voice asked. They turned around and found themselves surrounded by about ten vampires. Buffy pulled her stake from her pocket while Angel grabbed his from his belt
"You get the ones on the left"
"Cool"
