Later that night
Everyone is at Xander's.
Everyone is sitting down, talking quietly amongst themselves except for Buffy who is asleep, her head resting on Angel's lap.
Then a spine-tingling scream cut through the air.
"Aaannnnngggggeeeeelllllllllllllllllllllll! Nooooooo. Willow? Xander? Cordy? Why? I thought that you guys were my friends! What? No, don't kill me, I don't want to be a vampire."
Buffy who was having a nightmare screams again. Angel shakes her. "Shhh, it's me! You were having a nightmare. Are you okay?"
Buffy jumps up and starts backing away from them all. She looks around at them, scared, holding up her fists to show that she was willing to fight.
Angel stood, holding out his arms to her. "Buffy, what's wrong? We're not going to hurt you."
"Really?" Buffy asked quietly in a voice sounding like a little child rather than her usually over confident self.
"Promise!" Buffy runs into his arms and starts crying quietly.
"Angel, I'm scared"
"I know babe. But it's going to be okay."
Buffy was lead to the couch again by Angel where she fell asleep almost at once. But this time it was peaceful as she was in her lovers' arms and knew she was safe.
