A Christmas Gift. Buffy receives a gift the day before Christmas Eve. She has no idea who it is from. Here's a Christmas story for you all. If you are in the Christmas spirit then read last years Christmas story True Love out of one of my fave movies. Also this year's Santa Baby. Do enjoy. I will try to continue with other stories of mine but I'm not in my own computer so it will take a while. Be patient. Thanks all for reviews and Enjoy.

The door bell rings and Buffy goes to get it. She opens it and sees nobody but a small box on the floor. She picks it up and looks around to see if the person who left the box is still around. No one is in sight.

The box could no have been for her mother or her sister because they were not in town. Dawn went with Joyce to an art gallery in LA. Buffy closes the door. She opens the box and gasp at what she sees inside of it.

"Who could of send this to me?" ask Buffy to herself. Her first thought is that it could be a prank or perhaps one of her ex's. She has had many boyfriends and she is going to find out who is the one that sent the box to her.

She grabs her coat and heads into the cold winter day of Sunnydale. Buffy puts the box in her purse and walks down the block.

When she arrives at the first boyfriend's house, she takes a deep breath and knocks at the door. The door opens and Riley Finn is there.

"Buffy, hi," says Riley. "Come in." Buffy enters the house surprise to see a dark haired woman in his living room. The woman gets up and greets Buffy.

"You must be Buffy," says the woman. "Ri here has told me lots about you. I'm Faith."

"Hi. Really," says Buffy. "Hope it's the good stuff. Not that I'm bad or anything." Buffy smiles.

"We've been going out for six months Faith and I," says Riley putting his arm around Faith's waist. "We're heading to Boston for Christmas Eve to have dinner with her family."

"That's great," says Buffy. "I'm really happy for you Riley. I just want to talk to about something."

"Right. I better make sure you've got everything packed," says Faith. "You know how you always forget things." Faith heads up stairs leaving Riley and Buffy alone.
"What is it you wanted to talk to me about?" ask Riley. They go over to the living room and sit down on the sofa.

"I got this box left at my doorstep and I thought that..." Buffy says. She takes the box out of her purse and opens it.

"Buffy you thought that I..." says Riley. "I definitely don't have enough money to buy this. Looks like you have a secret admirer."

"No secret admirer would send me this," says Buffy. "Who could it be?"

"I don't know," says Riley. "Did you ask Angel or Xander?"

"No," replies Buffy. "I don't think they would do that, but it could any body."

"Why did come to me first?" ask Riley.

"It's kind of like something that you would do, although I don't think that you would of left it there in front of my doorstep," says Buffy.

"I really will take that as a complement," says Riley. "But I'm in love Buffy. Faith is the greatest thing that's happen to me since you."

"I'm glad you found someone," says Buffy as she gets up and hugs Riley. She walks over to the door and Riley follows her. He opens the door.

"I hope you find him," says Riley. Buffy turns around and looks at Riley.

"I hope so too," says Buffy. "Have a good time in Boston. Say bye to Faith for me."

"I will," says Riley. Buffy walks down the steps. "Hey Buffy."

"What?" ask Buffy turning around.

"I hope that whom ever is that gave you that box is someone, who really means what he saying with the gift," says Riley.

"I hope so too, but I don't know," says Buffy shaking her head. "If he meant what he meant then why didn't he show himself with the box."

"He was probably scared to talk to you. I was the first time."

"I didn't know," says Buffy.

"I'm glad you came by," says Riley.

"Me too," says Buffy.

"Merry Christmas Buffy."

"Merry Christmas Riley." She turns around and walks towards the sidewalk.

Buffy was so sure that it would have been Riley but it wasn't. She wraps her arms around her trying to keep herself warm and walks down the block to another house.

She heads over to another doorstep and knocks at the door. A dark haired man opens the door and is surprise to see Buffy at his doorstep.

"Buffy. What are you doing in this part of the neighborhood?" ask the man.

"Sorry to bother you Angel, but I just want to ask you one simple question," says Buffy.

"Angel who's at the door?" ask a blonde girl coming over to the door. "Hi."

"Hi, Darla," says Buffy.

"Angel invite her in," says Darla. "Come on get out of the cold." Darla leads Buffy into the dinning room. "Would like some hot cocoa?" Angel closes the front door and walks over to the two blondes.

"Oh that's really kind but I'm not going to stay long," says Buffy. Angel pulls out a chair for Buffy and Darla.

"Before you say anything Buffy," says angel. I have something to tell you."

"You do," says Buffy says surprise.

"Yes," says Angel with a smile. He grabs Darla's hand and she smiles at Angel. "You're the first person to know. Darla and I are engaged."

"Engaged," says Buffy. "Congratulations. That's wonderful news Angel. Really."

"What is it you wanted to tell me?"

"I got this little left at my doorstep this morning," says Buffy as she pulls out the box from her purse. "No card. Nothing. I thought that maybe you..."

"It's beautiful," says Darla.

"I didn't get you that Buffy," says Angel. "Did you ask Riley?"

"Yeah I did before I came here," says Buffy. "He's going to Boston with his new girlfriend Faith."

"Oh," says Angel.

"What about the funny guy?" says Darla. "What's his name?"

"You mean Xander," says Buffy.

"Right," says Darla.

"Why didn't you go to him first?" says Angel. "He was your last boyfriend."

"Yeah, you're right," says Buffy. "This does sound like one of his antics. I guess you and Riley were the first to come to mind."

"Thanks for having me in mind but bad Buffy," says Angel with smile. Darla slaps him on the shoulder.

"I'm sorry to disturb you guys," says Buffy getting up and heading towards the door.

"It's no disturbance at all Buffy," says Darla. "Come over when ever you like."

"Thanks Darla," says Buffy giving her a hug.

"Hey Buffy," says Angel as Buffy exits the house. "If it's Xander let me know."

"Why?" ask Buffy.

"So I can hit him," says Angel.

"Angel," says Darla in a stern voice. "You promise no more fighting."

"It's not fighting," says Angel. "I just don't like the guy is all."

"Just because he took me away from you doesn't mean you have to not like him," says Buffy.

"I don't have to be his friend. Do I?" ask Angel to Darla.

"Stop being a baby Angel," says Darla.

"I don't wanna," says Angel in a whining voice.

"I'll stake you real good," says Darla. with wicked smile.

"I'll be good," replies angel with an angelic smile.
