Part two

(April 1st. april Fools Day)

Buffy was tired. She had only had two hours sleep again after staying up last night to watch the reruns of Dawson's creek with Cordelia who insisited on watching it whether Buffy wanted to or not. Cordelia was one of Buffy's mates from high school. They didn't see each other very often as Cordelia had moved to New York to persue her dream of acting. Willow and Xander were also in town for a while but had made excuses not to come round as they knew what Cordelia was like.
Climbing out of bed Buffy slowly rose and stumbled down the stairs to find her mum cooking pancakes for breakfast.
"mmmmm. that smells nice"
"Thanks Honey.They'll be ready in a minute. Wash your hands and grab a seat."
Even though Buffy was at collage she still lived with her mum. she knew it was uncool and not away to get boys attention but it was cheaper in the long run so she beared with it. well she would for now. "Mum. Can i tell you something. It's kinda important and im not sure if i wanna do it cause i got all my friends here and your here and stuff.."
"Buffy, Just spit it out"
"Cordelia asked me if i wanted to move to New York with her,Willow and Xander. she said its easy enough to transfer and stuff. Its meant to be fun"
"Buffy. Of course you can. I really dont mind. Ive got Giles now and as long as you still come and visit i have no problem with it."
"Thanx Mum. Your a star. I'm just gonna pop over the road and see what Angel says."
Jumping up she gave her mum a hug and ran out the house.
"What about your pancakes hunny.." Joyce shouted but she was already gone. "that girl" she mumbled to her-self.

(Angel's House)
"Spike. I can't." "no you shut up" "you wouldn't" "Well fuck you"
Angel slammed the phone down onto the reciever. he hated that guy. God. He just didn't want to hurt Buffy's feelings but if he didn't do it now apparently Spike was gonna tell her about the april fools and that would get him into big trouble with Buffy.
Hearing a knock on the door he walked down the hallway to answer it. Standing at the door stood his best friend. God she looked good today. With her blond hair down and her hazel eyes sparkling. Forget good she looked beutiful. Ok angel. where are these thoughts coming from. she is your best friend and no way in hell are you going to think about her that way.
"hey angel. can i come in. I got some big news"
"um sure. What is it"
"Im moving to New York"
"Your what!!"
"Well cordelia invited me. she said it was cool. I didn't think you'd mind cause theres nothing exactly keeping me here."
"What about me?"
"Angel. Your my best friend and of course i'd miss you but at least we can still keep in touch."
"Buffy, i dont wanna just keep in touch. I wanna see you everyday at collage. I want to sit next to you and hold your hand when you get scared of going to the denstist. I wanna look out for you like a best friend should"
"You still can look out for me, just not see me everyday. its not like i won't be visiting. I'll come back for the holidays and maybe even some weekends but this is what i want. I'll miss you of course but it's not the end of the world."
"If its what you want but i'll miss you Buffy. I wish you wern't going"
"Well if you can give me one good reason to stay then i will."
Buffy looked up hopefully at him waiting for an answer. Part of her mind wanted to go but the other wanted to stay. To stay here with him.
"There is no reason buffy" Angel looked away. "You go and have fun and remember that i'll always be there if you need me"
"Yeh i will. Bye Angel. I'll see you soon."
"Bye Buffy. I love you"
Buffy turned suddenly to look at Anegl in shock. had he just sayed he loved her. he had never done that before. Not even in a friendly way.
" I love you to Angel" she said in reply and walked out the door taking one last look at Angel.
Angel lifted his head slightly from his thoughts. Did he just tell her he loved her and did she just say she loved him too. he didn't mean to say anything like that. he meant to say all the normal things people say like have a nice time and send me a postcard. Now she probabily thought that he loved her.
"Shit"
