TITLE: Part Two of "Read My Heart"

AUTHOR: sokkerblondie005 (duh. If ur reading this, u should kno. Just look up.)

DISCLAIMER: My all-time favorite disclaimer----- I own nothing. Joss is the Master of all Evils. (And he's their king.) Sadly, none of these are mine (although if you'll sell... I'll buy!! I'll fix their sad lives and make everything all better!)

SPOILERS: This is AU, there are none.

RATING: PG, for language. (stop asking me to do this, I suck!)

SUMMARY: AU. Buffy is a mind reader. Angel's a new kid with a secret. Faith is a slayer, and they are the scoobies. But.... Buffy's gift has a price.

EXTRAS: Couples here are B/A, W/O, C/X, J/G, and an exception. But that comes later. Uhhhh…Two weeks have passed, Angel fell for Buffy, Buffy fell for Angel. Blah blah blah. I'm sorry this took so long!

About two weeks after her initial meeting with Angel, Buffy had fallen completely head over heels for him. One Thursday night, at a sleepover with Willow, Faith, and Cordelia, the four girls were playing Truth or Dare. It was Faith's turn to dare someone, and she dared Buffy to do the one thing no girl should ever have to do.

"Buffy, I dare you to…ask Angel out." The brunette said, laughing when the blonde's mouth fell open. And there was no way to get out of it. Though Buffy begged and pleaded, she could not get the slayer to back down.

So, the next day, after avoiding Angel all day, she finally had to do the dare. It was right after last period, when Faith came up to her. Slapping Buffy on the butt, she said, "Get 'em!"

So Buffy walked up to Angel, inwardly cringing at his rejection, or what she assumed would be so.

"Angel? I was kinda wondering…if…ya know…you wanted to hang out…maybe at the Bronze…?"

"Uhhh…" His face was completely blank.

"Never mind. Bye." She blushed bright pink and went to turn away when he grabbed her forearm. Spinning around, she turned to face him.

"I'd love to." He told her, and she grinned, her knees turning to jelly. She didn't know that his insides were melting at that brilliant smile. She nodded and told him she'd meet him there.

Walking away, she saw Faith, Willow, and Cordy peeking out of an empty classroom.

"Faith!" She groaned, knowing it was her idea to spy on Buffy and Angel. The slayer tapped her head and Buffy quickly jumped inside.

*What's up? *

*Sooooo. What'd he say? *

*Aren't you just dying to know. You sat there watching, and you don't even know? Geez, Faith. Your lip reading starting to suck. Much.*

*Buffy!*

*Duh! He said yes. Actually, he said he'd love to, but-* The two girls were so close that they started talking out loud.

"See? I told you! He really likes you!"

The girls continued talking as Angel turned around, grinning like an idiot, abandoning his famous half-smiles for a full blown grin. He didn't see Riley peeking out of another uninhabited classroom. Nor did he see the "Fish Boy's" reaction to the whole ordeal. Angel was so happy, he ran straight into Spike while walking in his daze. The two boys had quickly become friends, along with Xander and Oz in their group.

"Hey, man! Watch it!" Spike protested.

"Sorry." Angel muttered.

"What's got you so happy Peaches? I've never seen you smile before." As Spike looked in the direction of Angel's gaze, he said, "Ah. So you finally asked Fluffy out? And I take it she said yes?"

"Her name isn't Fluffy, Peroxide Boy. It's Buffy. And no, I didn't ask her out. She asked me." Angel growled at the bleached blond Englishman. "What do I do?"

"What do you mean, what do you do? You've never gone on a date before?" When Angel shook his head, he continued. "But you've had plenty of girls- don't tell me they were screw and dump!" Angel didn't say anything and Spike shook his head. He took Angel to his house and helped him look suitable, neither boy knowing that Buffy was having similar problems two blocks away.
