TITLE: Part Five 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 I really don't think there are any.


RATING:
PG, for violence. (Stop asking me to do this, I suck at rating things!!)

SUMMARY: AU. Buffy is a mind reader. Angel's a new kid with a secret. Faith is the 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. Mwahaha. This is the best part of being the author! Oh, and Buffy has the biggest secret of all.

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 about in S2. But that comes later. Uhhhh…Angel called Oz, Xander, and Spike to talk about what happened at his and Buffy's date. Which was freakage much. Angel freaked out and went all growly. So now he's pissed and dangerous. Bad mix.

Oh, and aren't y'all proud of me for getting this up less than 2 weeks after my last update? I know, I'm good. Bow before me! LoL!

After Oz hung up the phone with Xander, Spike, and Angel he quickly called Willow's house.

"Hello?" She said into the phone.

"Will? It's me. Um…somethin's up." He told her. She quietly walked into another room, farther away from the other three girls.

"It's Angel, isn't it?" She asked, trying to keep her voice down so the other girls wouldn't hear. But with her excelled slayer hearing, Faith heard and excused herself from the presence of her blonde and brunette friends to find out what was up.

"Yeah. The boy's pissed as hell. He freaked out 'cause Xander and me wouldn't tell him about… you know." Oz murmured, and a dark look crossed Willow's face.

"Did he guess anything?" She quietly replied, and Faith began asking questions.

"Angel? He knows? Did Buffy say anything?" Faith interrupted at the same time as Oz said, "No." Willow held one finger up to Faith, signaling her to hold on a minute while she continued the questioning of her boyfriend.

"But he, like, started yelling and stuff. Much with the violence. He was really mad that we wouldn't tell him what was going on." Oz told her.

"Okay, well, just make sure you and Xander and Spike don't say anything, okay? It's Buffy's deal. She needs to be the one to tell him." Willow said, and instantly froze, trying to clear her mind. "No." She whispered, seemingly talking to the air. "No! Stop it! Now!" She yelled, startling Faith.

"Willow? What's wrong? What is it?" Oz asked, worried for his girl's safety.

"She- She's trying to read me- Oz, I'll talk to you later!" Willow said through clenched teeth. She dropped the phone and collapsed to the ground. As quickly as it had happened, Willow stood up and charged into the room that Buffy and Cordelia were sitting in. Buffy's face had gone chalk white and Cordy was trying to wake her out of her trance.

"What happened?" Faith asked urgently, hurrying in behind the Wicca, after having hung up the connection and dropping it down in its cradle.

"She- She read me- My head. Buffy, he doesn't know. Buffy, he's not mad at you." Willow pleaded, rushing towards the petite person on the bed. She grabbed Buffy's shoulders and looked deeply into her eyes. "Buffy-"

All of a sudden, the doorbell rang. Violently. Buffy came out of her trance gasping, and she started shaking with fear. "It's him! Parker! I know it!" She sputtered. The doorbell kept ringing, and Buffy kept shaking and sobbing.

Willow ran to answer the front door, and Buffy screamed, "No!" So Faith sprinted after the redhead, only partly reassuring the screaming girl.

Willow wrenched the front door open, Faith appearing right behind her, ready to go Slayer-licious and kick some Parker-ass. The two were nearly beheaded by Angel, who had raised his hand to pound on the front door.

"Angel!" Willow gasped. "What are you-" She stepped aside as Angel dashed into her house.

"Where's. Buffy." Angel growled, glaring at the two of them and looking around Willow's downstairs rooms anxiously. Suddenly he stopped making noise and cocked his head to the right. He heard Buffy's muffled cries and yells and he sprinted for the stairs.

TBC- Sorry for the cliff!
