Chapter 2

William woke up to find himself on a couch. He looked around and saw that he was in someone's house. He rubbed his eyes when Xander came over to him. "Good, you're awake. It wasn't easy carrying you here. What's your name anyway?" He said as he handed William a glass of water. He took it and drank it all down.

"My name is William. What happened?" He asked.

"You kinda passed out." William thought back to what happened and then stood up.

"We are in the year 2004? This cannot be happening. How do I get back?" Xander sighed.

"That's what I don't know. I've read the book over and I'm not sure how to open another portal to send you back. I'll find it though, it's probably in another book or something. I'm sure I'll have you home in no time, but until then I guess you should stay here. It would probably be best if you didn't tell anyone about where you're from. They probably wouldn't believe it. I have to get you to blend in somehow." Xander stated as he looked at William. "First, we have to do something about your clothes. No one around here dresses like that. You can wear something of mine until we do some shopping." William looked back at his clothes when Xander went upstairs. He came back down and handed William the clothes he picked out. "These might be a little big on you, but it's good enough for now." He said as he showed William to the bathroom. William came out a few minutes later wearing a baggy shirt and jeans. Xander smiled at him. "That's much better." He was about to say something else when he heard the front door open.

"Xander, you here?" He heard a girl say.

"Yeah, I'm in the living room." William finally looked up after fussing with his clothes when he saw a vision walk into the living room. She was petite and had long, blonde hair. William has never seen anything so beautiful. She smiled at Xander.

"Hey, what are you doing?" She asked when she noticed William there.

"Just hanging out. I would like you to meet a friend of mine. This is William." He said and William gave her a shy smile. Xander then turned his attention on William. "This is my sister, Buffy." Buffy smiled at him.

"Hi, it's nice to meet you." She said as she held out her hand for him to shake. He just took her hand and placed a soft kiss on it.

"The pleasure is all mine." He replied as he let her hand go and Buffy blushed a little.

"You sure are polite. Are you really one of Xander's friends?" Xander laughed.

"You're just hilarious. We were kinda in the middle of something, Buffy. Don't you have some homework to do?" Buffy rolled her eyes.

"Fine, I can take the hint." She stated as she looked back at William. "It was really nice to meet you." She said as she headed upstairs. William watched her go and then turned back to Xander.

"She is very lovely." He said and Xander rolled his eyes this time.

"Yeah, sure. Anyway, you're gonna have to sleep on the couch. Sorry, but that's all we have." William nodded and wasn't really listening to what Xander was saying. His thoughts were on the enchanting girl upstairs.
