Chapter 13 I'm Not Buffy, Really! The girls plan to get their parents back together with a little help from Anya and her beau's best friend. The festival I made it up. Most probably it doesn't exist. Sorry for the delay children. Read on to learn more.
His children leave Giles with his ex-wife and his to be wife. He is so going to kill them when they get back. He decides to get drunk, which annoys both of the women. The women both decided to leave Giles in his den and head to their rooms.
As soon as Giles knew that they would be asleep, he heads upstairs fully aware of where he is going and heads to his room. Joyce's room is next to Giles' and she hears him enter his room. She gets up and goes over to the wall that connects with his room.
In Giles' room he looks at the wall that connects his room to Joyce's and touches the wall. He takes a deep breath and walks towards his bed. Joyce on the other side does the same.
The next day Elizabeth and Buffy convince Giles to go and take them to one of the local festivals.
"We could go together as a family," says Elizabeth.
"Yes," says Giles. "And Glory can come with his."
"Dad we said family," says Buffy.
"Glory will be part of our family," says Giles.
"But she isn't," says Elizabeth. "Dad I want us to go as family. We've never done that." Elizabeth puts a sad face.
"Elizabeth," says Giles. "We did go as family once. It was to a fair when the both of you were about three."
"I remember that," says Joyce coming down the stairs. "Your father lost the car in the parking lot." The girls laugh and look at their dad.
"Did someone steal it?" ask Buffy.
"No. I don't think anyone would steal that car," says Joyce.
"Hey," says Giles. Joyce snickers.
"What's so funny?" ask Glory entering the house. Buffy and Elizabeth roll their eyes.
"Oh it's little incident that happen a long time ago," says Giles.
"Oh, how sweet," says Glory. "So Ripper what we doing today?"
"We're going to a festival," says Giles. "It's time you get to know the girls."
"Well, dad if you get to take someone then you wouldn't mind if the boys came with us," says Buffy. Spike and Xander come down the stairs. The two are talking and look at everyone downstairs.
"Good morning," they both say and kiss their girls.
"Alright," says Giles.
"Fine," says Elizabeth.
"Hey, so what are we doing today?" ask Anya. Everyone looks at her.
They all group into two separate cars and head to the festival. The girls went with their boyfriends and their mom, while Giles, Glory, and Anya went in the second car.
"Hey, Riley I'm going to this festival today and I was hoping if we can meet their," says Anya holding her cell phone close to her ear while looking out the window.
"Sure," says Riley. "Could I bring a friend?"
"Sure," says Anya. "Love ya." She blows a kiss into the phone.
"Love you too," replies Riley. Anya hangs up the phone. She looks at Giles and Glory.
"How could you use that wretched machine?" ask Giles.
"What?" ask Anya not understanding her brother's English words.
"He means your cell phone," says Glory.
"Oh," says Anya. "Giles it's the only way to communicate."
"Ripper it's the way of the future," says Glory pulling out her own cell phone. "It's better than the cordless phones." Giles smiles at Glory.
They arrived at the festival and head inside. Buffy and Elizabeth pull their guys with them away from their parents. Anya sees her boyfriend and runs over to him. She jumps into his arms and he picks her up kissing her on the lips.
"This is my family," says Anya after she released Riley's tongue. "My brother Rupert, but everyone calls Giles. His fiancé Glory."
"Nice to meet you two," says Riley shaking their hands.
"This is one of my best friends Joyce who is also my brother's ex-wife and the mother of my two very beautiful nieces Buffy and Elizabeth."
"Oh, nice to meet you," says Riley to Joyce. Buffy and Elizabeth wave at him and signal to Anya to come over to where they were.
"Girls, this is Riley," says Anya.
"Hi, Anya has told us so much about you," says Elizabeth.
"She has?" says Riley.
"Not really," says Buffy.
"Hey, I'm Spike," says Spike pulling his hand out. "He's Xander." Spike indicated to the guy next to Elizabeth.
"Wow, how do you tell them apart?" ask Riley to the guys.
"They don't," jokes Buffy.
"Yeah," says Elizabeth. "We trade boyfriends once in a while."
"Really?"
"No." Buffy, Elizabeth, Spike and Xander say at the same time.
"So where's your friend?" ask Anya turning to Riley. "You said you were going to bring a friend."
"Oh yeah," says Riley. "He said he'd meet me here."
"What does he look like?" ask Buffy.
"Tall, dark and broody," Riley jokes. The girls laugh.
"Ripper I'm getting bored," says Glory. "Why don't we go to the car and..." Joyce is standing right next to them.
"Not now Glory," says Giles. "Here why don't you buy something?" Giles pulls out his wallet and gives her forty dollars. Glory shrugs and smiles.
The girls start to get on some rides that they had at the festival. There was the merry-go-round and the Ferris Wheel, which gives the girls a brilliant idea.
"Riley hey," says Riley's friend walking over to the group.
"Wow," says Buffy when she sees him.
"Hey, I'm right here," says Spike tugging at Buffy.
"This is Angel," says Riley introducing his friend. "Angel this is Anya, Buffy, Spike, Elizabeth and Xander." Angel greets them all.
"So are you a student?" ask Elizabeth.
"No. I'm an actor. Well struggling to be one."
"Really," says Buffy with a smirk. "I've got a way for you to use your talent." The others look at Buffy.
"Mom I'd like you meet someone," says Buffy after pulling her mother away from the arts and crafts section. "This is Angel." Angel extends his hand to Joyce.
"Hello," says Joyce very flatter when Angel kisses her hand. Giles turns around and sees the whole scene. Buffy looks at her dad and walks over to Spike.
"Would you like to go on the bumper cars with me?" ask Angel.
"I'd love to," says Joyce. Angel leads her over to the bumper cars area. Joyce looks at the girls and knows what they are up to immediately. She just goes along with it.
When Giles sees Joyce getting on the bumper cars with another man his eyebrow raises and he walks over to the girls.
"Who's that man your mother's with?" ask Giles. Buffy smiles at her dad and looks at him.
"Some random guy," says Buffy. "Where's Glory?"
"You're mother shouldn't be going along with any man that ask her..."
"Dad, mom's got the right. She's not married," says Elizabeth.
"It's not right," says Giles. "He could be some sort...who know what he could be."
"You better keep an eye on her," says Buffy.
