TITLE: Part Four of "Read My Heart"

AUTHOR: sokkerblondie005 (duh. If you're reading this, u should know. 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!). But anyways, yeah. I don't own this and you don't own that. How unfair can this world get?

SPOILERS: This is AU, so there are none.

RATING: PG, for violence. (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 Willow, Oz, Xander, Cordy, Buffy, Spike, Giles, and Jenny are the Scoobies. But.... Buffy's gift has a price. And there are other twists that I make up as I go along. Muhaha. This is the best part of being the author!

EXTRAS: Couples in here are B/A, W/O, C/X, J/G, like they were in Season 2 and there's an exception for characters that weren't known of in S2. But that comes later. Uhhhh?Buffy left during her and Angel's date, freaking out, she went to Willow's and freaked out there too and Angel is confuzzled. I think that's where we left off. Blah blah blah. I'm sorry this took so long, y'all! My computer had a virus and I haven't been able to get online in forever!!

After a half hour of comforting the tiny blonde, the girls all decided to stay the night together again. Buffy slowly got herself under control and the other three went about getting ready for another sleepover at Willow's.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the tiny Hellmouth-y town, Angel was nervously pacing his room. He was actually having a hard time doing so, because the boxes full of his stuff from LA were in his way with every other step. After the fifth time he hit a box, he decided to call Spike, Xander, and Oz.

As soon as the four of them were on the line he began to speak, hurrying his tale along until he came to the important part. "We were having a good time and all, when all of a sudden this dude comes up. He, like, tapped Buffy on the shoulder, and when she turned around she almost jumped out of her skin. She, like, backed up into me and literally shrank away from him. She was totally freaking out and I have no idea what was so wrong. The dude gave off this weird feeling though. I really didn't like him.

"But anyways, I got her out of there, and she started shaking. First it was her hands, and then her whole body was violently swaying. She kept rubbing her shoulder where he'd touched her, too, like she wanted to, like, get the feeling of him touching her off of her. I took her to Willow's right after and I guess that's where she is now." He stopped, and Xander and Oz gasped almost simultaneously.

"Oz, there's no way man. He wouldn't-"Xander began.

"You never know, dude. It coulda been." Oz spoke.

"But-" Xander stopped, at a loss for words.

"Hey, Angel?" Oz asked after a couple of seconds of strained silence.

"Yeah?"

"Did you catch this guy's name, man?" He questioned, nearly using up his word quota for the day.

"Uhhh? I think so. It was, like, Peter, or Parker. Yeah, Parker." He replied, and Xander immediately freaked out.

"Oh my God are you freakin' serious? I- I totally gotta go to Willow's. I'll catch you guys later." He told them and hung up milliseconds after.

"What the bloody hell was that all about, mate?" Spike said, speaking for the first time in the conversation.

"I don't know." Angel told him, completely confused. "Oz? Do you know?" The multi-color-haired boy was silent (surprise surprise!) immediately leading Angel to the conclusion that Oz knew something.

"Oz!" He hissed.

"I? I'm sorry. I'm not sure I should be the one to? tell you what happened. You'll just have to ask Buffy." He told them quietly. Angel roared and slammed his hand into his bed, only slightly muffling the thud.

"What the hell happened?" Angel growled, trying to control his temper while trying to scare Oz into telling him.

"I can't tell you. You'll have to ask Buffy." Oz told Angel, not the least bit scared or intimidated.

"Fine, then I will." Angel bit off, slamming the phone in its cradle. Oz quietly hung up, leaving Spike all alone on the line.

"'Ello?"
