Late August
"So, when do you start school again?" Angel asked Buffy as
they packed up their belongings.
"Next week. What about you?" She asked, shoving her tooth
brush in its travel case.
"Next week."
Buffy looked up at him with a smile. "Whoa. That's cool.
Now you won't have anytime to brood about me being gone."
"Yeah. Plus the fact that I'm going to Sunnydale High
School." He said with a smirk as he threw his boxers into
his bag.
Buffy dropped her curling iron. "What? What do you mean
you're going to Sunnydale High School?" She asked slowly.
"Oh I didn't tell you? Silly me. My parents bought a house
in Sunnydale. We move in a month but Connor and I are going
to stay with my cousin so we can start school on time. In
fact we better get going. I have to meet my brother at the
bus station." He replied, zipping up his duffle bag.
"Angel… are you serious?" She asked him in awe.
"Dead serious. I spoke to my parents last week and they
told me. I'm just worried. I don't know what the neighbor
hoods like. My mom says our neighbor is nice and that
there's this girl my age that lives next door. Umm… 1633
Revello Drive, or something like that. Is that a good
neighborhood Buff?" He asked as he headed out of the
bedroom.
Buffy zipped up her bag and ran after him. "That's right
next door. Oh my god. Angel! I can't believe this." She
yelled as she hugged him.
"Yup. No matter what, you'll never be able to get rid of
me." He said before placing his lips on top of hers.
Reluctantly he pulled away. "I wasn't joking though when I
said we needed to hurry up. Or bus leaves in about two
hours and I still have to meet Connor."
"Okay. Buffy grabbed her bag and followed them down to the
landlords apartment to drop off their keys.
