Frivolosity pt. 1
A Year Later
Now that another summer was over, Buffy's parents had agreed to let her leave their little farming community outside of Albuquerque, to move to California to finish high school there. With her 3 month old son, Liam Joshua Summers, she packed the bare essentials, Angel's box being one of them, and got into her dad's truck. Thankful that her parents had paid for brand new parts for the truck, as well as finally having it washed and waxed, she loaded all of the baby furniture, Angel's box, and 4 other pieces of luggage. After a big breakfast and kissing her parents goodbye, promising to call as soon as possible, she got into the truck, then drove all the way to Los Angeles, to start her new life as a single mom.
Los Angeles
He didn't know why, but for some reason Angel couldn't stop staring at her picture. They had ended a year ago, but until tonight, he had never looked at her picture. It was too painful to remember the girl who he had truly fallen in love with. Granted he wasn't a virgin when they first made love, but she instilled simplicity, common sense, and a work ethic into him. During the last year, he had gotten As and Bs, proving that he wasn't just a star athlete, and MVP in every sport their school participated in. He also got rid of his 'love 'em and leave 'em' reputation. A month after he came back, he started dating Jessica Kyner, a straight A student who loved the theatre, volunteering at the soup kitchen, and synchronized swimming. He knew that he could never have Buffy again, but the fact that Jessica was becoming the type of girl that he could see himself with, he decided that he was content enough.
72 Hours Later
After many feedings, diaper changes, and fast food restaurants, she finally saw the border for California. Getting out at the rest stop, she changed into capri pants and a tube top, then got cleaned up before tending to her son. Once he was ready, she situated him again in his car seat, got into her truck, then made her way to the border.
Once she was free to go, she went to find the cheapest, most decent two bedroom apartment she could find. She may be low on funds, but there was no way she would raise her son in a flea/rat infested building that was doomed to falter at any moment. Making sure that they were decent, she carried her baby and purse into the building, hoping for the best.
Twelve Hours Later
After finding a decent, furnished apartment for $300.00/month, she moved the furniture in, assembling it right away. Having a talk with the landlords, getting them to take care of her son while she was at school and work, she walked into the Bronze, getting a job as a waitress. It only paid $10.00/h plus tips, but it was enough for a decent start. Once her son was asleep, she called her parents, telling them that she was ok. Getting into her bed, she fell asleep, dreaming about Monday, when, hopefully, she would see him again.
