The Slayer, A Soulful Vampire, and An Unknown School

Disclaimer: You know that I don't own Buffy and her characters, like Dawn and Angel, their Joss Whedon and the entire HP characters are JK Rowlings, so yeah.

Thanks to all who have reviewed my story! I'm trying still to keep this story different from all of the Buffy/Harry Potter crossovers, so any constructive comments are most welcome!

Here we go!

**************************

Buffy sat up in her bed. She was thinking of Angel. She hadn't stopped thinking of him since he left that day after Graduation. Buffy tried to cover it up by putting her pain all over Spike.

Buffy then got up and walked outside of her room, with her back against the wall. She slid down and started to cry, at the thoughts of her past.

A huge, dark figure stood above her and crouched down to look her in the eye.

"Buffy? Are you alright?"

"Angel," Buffy sighed. "I can't do this. I don't know how to handle kids. I can barely handle Dawn. This is insane. I'm the Slayer, I'm not supposed to cry."

"Your human. You're supposed to cry. I wish I could say the same thing. You can't do everything perfectly and you'll have tons of help from me. And as for the crying, I think you look beautiful when you cry."

"Thanks Angel. What would I do without you?"

"How about going back to bed. We have a big day tomorrow," Angel spoke.

"Yeah. You're probably right, as usual. Brings back memories," Buffy replied.

Angel helped Buffy up and she looked up into his pretty face, covered in pain from all of the losses in his life.

Buffy and Angel got closer and closer, until their lips touched and they embraced in a lustful kiss.

Buffy stopped.

"We can't do this," Buffy said. "Not now."

"Later?" Angel replied.

"Maybe."

And with that, Buffy smiled and turned back into her room. But when she looked back, Angel was gone.

*********************************

When Buffy woke up it was 8:30 in the morning.

"Oh Shit!" Buffy screamed as she sat up. "I slept in!"

Buffy quickly got dressed and ran down to the Great Hall to find only that no one was there.

"I guess I'm a little late for breakfast."

Professor Dumbledore then surreptitiously came up behind her.

"Professor Summers? Nice of you to join us."

"I am so sorry! I totally slept in. I haven't slept the whole night through since.well...in a long time."

"That's quite alright. But if you don't hurry you are going to miss your first class!"

"Thank you," Buffy said before hurrying down the corridor to go find her classroom.

Buffy ran into the class to find Angel already demonstrating to the class the technique of how to block an offensive attack.

"Sorry I'm late!" Buffy said as she walked into the class. "I got a little lost!"

Buffy turned to Angel, "So why don't you throw a basic punch at me and I'll block it."

"Alright," Angel replied.

Angel threw a hard punch at Buffy and she easily blocked it.

One of the students put up their hand.

"Yes?" Angel asked.

"Umm. Why are all of the windows covered? I couldn't see that very well."

"That is easy to explain," Buffy explained. "And Professor O'Roake is going to tell why."

"Right," Angel started after glaring at Buffy. "Well.umm. most demons will attack during the umm.night and we are just trying to set the ambiance."

Buffy smiled and whispered, "Nice cover."

Angel just smiled that dreamy smile of his back.

Their first class together was a success. All of the first year students loved the class. Next Buffy and Angel taught the fifth year Gryfindors and Slytherins, so Dawn and Conner were going to be there. This should be interesting.

Most of the Gryfindors came in first including Dawn and her new friends. She quickly said 'Hello' to Buffy, snubbed off Angel and sat down.

Then Conner came in. Covered in Slytherin girls! He seemed to be ignoring them, while they drooled over his pretty boy eyes. Later, Conner revealed that after the 'incident' in the Great Hall, he hadn't had a moment of piece.

"Settle down class and take you seats," Angel said in his deep, intimidating voice.

This class drew silent.

"Alright," Buffy began. "We're going to start the class by opening you textbooks to Chapter 1."

"Yes," Angel continued. "The first major unit that we will look at in depth is Vampires. This is going to be quite an intense study since we will teach you also how to defend yourself if you ever come into contact with one, with your wand not usable and/or available."

Hands then shot up in the air.

"Yes?" Buffy asked pointing to the blonde slick boy Conner punched in the Great Hall. (And to much of Buffy and Angel's dismay, looked astonishingly similar to Spike.) "State your name and your question."

"My name is Draco Malfoy," the boy said. "And I would like to point out that vampires are not real."

"Oh really," Angel retorted, with both Dawn and Conner trying to hold back from laughing hysterically.

"Yes. They are just a myth," another student said, which caused confusion and a lot of people nodding their heads or saying "Yeah!"

"Are you questioning my.I mean.our teaching?" Buffy said trying to equal her 'scariness' to Angel's.

This got the class quiet again.

"I thought not. So let's look at Chapter 1. Vampires are creature of the night and therefore burn up in Sunlight. They can be killed by stabbing them in the heart, with a wooden stake, fire or decapitation as well."

"Let's pretend that Professor O'Roake is a vampire," Buffy said, and smiled.

Conner retorted back with, "Who needs to pretend?"

Dawn turned around and hit Conner over the head. "Shut up, Conner!"

"Anyways," Buffy continued, glaring at Dawn and Conner. "I will show you how to attack."

Buffy ran towards Angel with a wooden stake she grabbed off of her desk. She jumped gracefully, yet powerfully, and landed just before hitting Angel in the heart. Most of the students were in awe and some were clapping in entertainment.

The sad this is, Angel didn't flinch. Buffy thought, 'He is either getting used to me doing this, or he trusts me like he used to before.' and she stopped thinking about that because there were too many painful memories.

Angel then turned to the class and said, "Just before class ends, we are assigning a research report on a famous vampire. Choose anyone from this list Buffy.I mean Professor Summers.and I hand out. Oh and remember, we will be practicing the move Buffy showed on me, next time so be prepared!"

All of the students filled out, except for Dawn, and her friends.

"Yeah, Dawn and friends?" Buffy asked. "What's up?"

"Hermione, Ron and Harry want to ask you something," Dawn said.

"Alright then, shoot. Not literally of course."

Hermione just came straight out and asked, "Is one of you a vampire?"

End of Chapter

Dun, dun, duuuuuuuuuuuun.I thought that is was a great way to end a Chapter. I have some ideas about new plot themes. I really want to put some old Buffy characters into the story and mingle with the HP characters and spark up some old flames and/or rivalries between Buffy and Angel. I prefer them being old rivals with B and A. Send ideas and comments please. Feedback is always encouraged, if it isn't too critical! Thanks!
