I warn you. This part will probably suck because I'm not very good at writing actiony stuff and stuff. It'd probably be better written by someone else, but you're stuck with me =P lol.

Sorry for not updating lately, but I've been busy with friends. Isn't like fun? lol. That wasn't sarcasm by the way. But, as always, I am back and giving the kind people what they want =o)


Buffy yawned as she opened her eyes, rubbing the sleep from them. She sighed as she sat up, and looked around herself to see she was in her bed.

"Angel?" Buffy said, standing up. I strictly remember falling asleep in his arms on the sofa after a very violent movie that I happened to enjoy. I'm praying that it wasn't all a dream, she thought.

She grabbed a sweater off the floor of her room and headed out to the living room. As she entered the room, she saw Angel standing in the kitchen making something. A smile formed on her face when the smell drifted up her nose.

"Mmm. What's that?" she asked.

He looked over at her. "Breakfast."

"Well I see that much," she said, walking over to him. "Did you stay the night?"

He nodded. "You weren't the only one to fall asleep. I woke up, put you in bed, checked on Katie and came back here to make you something."

"You're the best," she said, kissing his cheek. "Smells good."

"Go get comfortable and I'll bring it over."

She smiled at him before disappearing into the living room and sitting down on the sofa. She turned on the TV and flipped through the channels until it landed on cartoons.

"Still young at heart," he said, placing a plate of pancakes on the table in front of her. "And in size."

She stuck her tongue out at him and looked down at the feast. "Oh, my favourite. How'd you know?"

"Lucky guess."

"Are you going to be joining me?" she asked.

"How could I deny such a cute face?"

He sat down beside her, and watched silently as she dug into her food. She looked up at him, her mouth full with a questioning look.

"You're not eating?" she said, swallowing. "You haven't gone anorexic on me, have you?"

"I ate earlier," he said. "I don't mind just watching you."

She smiled. "Did I mention you're the best?"

He nodded. "But that doesn't mean I don't enjoy hearing it over and over."

"I love you," she said.

"I love you," Angel said, kissing her quickly. "Now eat up, we have school soon."


The last bell of the day rang at Sunnydale High, and Buffy was heading towards the library to meet up with Giles when someone stepped in front of her.

"Buffy," Willow said. "I was wondering- We were wondering if you wanted to go back to Xander's apartment with us. You know, hang out, drink some root beer."

Buffy smiled, but looked impatient. "Thanks Will. But I kind of have something I need to take care of."

"Oh, ok," Willow said, looking down to the ground.

"I mean, I want to, but this thing, it's real important. Maybe I'll catch up with you guys tonight."

Willow's face lit up. "We were planning on going to the Bronze. You-You could meet us there."

"Sounds like a plan. But I really have to get going," Buffy said, walking past her. "I'll see you tonight!"

"Yeah, tonight!" Willow yelled after her.

Buffy smiled to herself as she walked away from her friend. She pushed the doors of the library open and walked inside. Giles was sitting at the desk, his nose buried in a book, as usual.

Buffy walked over to him and stood there, waiting for him to acknowledge her.

"Oh, Buffy, hello," he said, standing. "You're here, good."

"And on time," she said cheerfully.

"Ah, yes," he said, looking up from the book he held. "I'm afraid I have some..."

"Bad news? What else is new?" she asked. "What is it?"

"I'm sure it's nothing, but..."

"You can't take any precautions when you're the Slayer."

"Yes, well, think I can finish my own sentences?"

Buffy smiled. "Sorry. You're just so... Predictable."

"I see," he said.

"So, what's the baddy?"

"A Turok-han. As Neanderthals are to human beings, the Turok-Han are to vampires. Primordial, ferociously powerful killing machines, as single-minded as animals. They are the vampires that vampires fear. An ancient and entirely different race and, until this morning, I thought they were a myth."

"How do you know it's this Turok-thingy you said?" she asked. "Couldn't it be just a normal vampire? I mean, did you see it?"

"Not me, but a friend," Giles said. "He called and gave me warning that it may be headed here. I want you to cut back on your patrolling, until we know for sure that it's here. If he catches you off your guard, I..."

"I'm not going to stop protecting people because there's an ancient vampire who thinks he's all that on the loose. Giles, I can't stop being the Slayer for a few nights."

"Yes you can. And you will."

Buffy sighed. "What if I go out on non-slaying terms?"

"No. You are not to leave your house after dark, do you hear me?"

Buffy nodded. "And that goes for you too."

"I am capable of..."

"Oh so the Watcher who's weak can go out, but the Slayer with strength can't? And I get to worry over you, but not you me? How is this fair?"

"I worry about you every second of every day Buffy. I know you, and I know your stubborness and that worries me."

Buffy smiled. "I won't go out after dark Giles. I promise you. Now, I have to go. If, we're done here?"

"Yes, we are. I'll call you if I know anymore."

Buffy nodded. "And I'm calling you right at sunset to see if you're home in your locked house."

Giles just smiled back at her as Buffy grabbed her bag and headed out.


:: Ok all, I changed the demon cause, well I was watching "Bring On The Night" and thought, "hey, the ubervamp kicked her ass" and so, I changed it. Don't hate me =D

Nothing big happened here. But, see, I'm busy. And this is all I could get done for this chapter. But next chapter, I promise, will be sooooooooooo actiony dramay traumay packed =D lol.

And the anorexic comment that I made earlier on in the story, I didn't mean it offensively, so please, no one take it that way. ::
