Chapter Three
Welcome to my life
Cordelia Chase was the most popular girl in the school. She was a cheerleader and was dating the quarter back Riley Finn. She had a group of followers that would do anything she told them to do. Which sometimes could be cool. But everyone was afraid to tell her what he or she really thought. They always agreed with her. It got really annoying. Her opinion couldn't be the only one that was out there. But the new girls Buffy and Faith weren't afraid of her. They had made friends with Willow and Xander. The two people she had made fun of since the first year she met them. They could tell each other what they thought without worry. Was that better then popularity? Would she rather be the most popular person when everyone only agreed with her or did she want to be the person who people were able to tell their opinions too? Cordelia didn't know. She had never been faced with that decision before. But that's exactly what her boyfriend had asked her. He had asked her whether or not she wanted to go out with him or run with the nerd herd. And her answer to him was you but now that she thought about it why would he ask the question. It shouldn't matter who her friends are. But of course it mattered to Riley. He didn't want his girlfriend hanging out with Losers.
"Cordy?" Riley asked.
Cordelia looked up from the magazine she was pretending to look at.
"Hmm."
"You've been staring at that page for an hour. What's up?" Riley asked.
He just wants to know if I was thinking about the question he asked me, Cordelia thought.
"Whatcha thinking about?" Riley asked.
"Just stuff."
The bell rang and Cordelia and Riley left the lunchroom to go to their next class. Riley was in Cordelias next class so they usually walked together. But he went a different way then usual.
"Where are we going?" Cordelia asked.
"I want to talk to you in private," explained Riley.
"So we go to the Library?"
"We don't have to go in, but no one comes this way."
"Ok. What did you want to talk to me about?" Cordelia asked.
"I just want to make sure that your not going to go hang with the nerd squad."
"Why would I hang with the nerd squad?"
"Well you've been looking over at them a lot. I don't know maybe I got the wrong idea," Riley accepted defeat.
"And so what if I did? I can hang with whoever I want."
Riley pinned her against the wall.
"No girlfriend of mine is going to hang with the nerd squad," Riley said through clenched teeth.
"You don't care about me you just care about your popularity," Cordelia countered.
Riley raised his hand to punch Cordelia but it was stopped mid way.
"What the hell," cursed Riley.
Riley threw Cordelia to the floor and turned to see who had stopped him. Standing behind him was none other than Angel.
"Who the hell do you think you are?" Riley asked.
"My name's Angel. I moved here from L.A. Oh and," Angel finished off by kneeing Riley in the stomach.
Riley fell to the floor clutching his stomach. Angel grabbed him and threw him down the hall.
"Get out of here and don't let me see you near Cordelia," Angel called after him as Riley ran.
Angel turned and helped Cordelia to her feet.
"You okay?" Angel asked.
"Yeah. Thanks."
"No problem. Well I was going to ask you sooner but do you wanna go to the Bronze tonight with me?" Angel asked.
"Sure."
