some time has been skipped in between chapters, a few hours at most. oh, thanks for the reviews:)
Buffy walked into the library after school as Giles had told her to do at lunch and saw that everybody was sitting and looking at her.
"Who, Giles, is this just a coincidence or-?" Buffy motioned.
"Buffy, find a seat. I've called an emergency meeting." He said nonchalantly.
"Emergen-?" Buffy started.
"We can finally get started." He gave a warning glance to her. "Now, as we all know, Buffy has been acting very strange the past two days. This is not entirely her fault." Giles talked as if she wasn't even there. She just twiddled with her ring in response. "She has informed me that she has been transported here from an alternate universe."
"I knew it! I just knew that there were really people on Mars!" Xander exclaimed.
"Xander, we are talking about an alternate reality. Both, our Buffy and the other Buffy have been condensed into one." Giles reasoned.
"That's like really weird." Cordelia replied.
Buffy nodded.
"Have you spoken to Angel yet, Buffy?" Giles gave her a critical gaze.
"And I would have time to do that, when?" She raised her eyebrows.
"I expect it to be done, tonight."
"Okay, okay, whatever." She got up.
"I didn't say you could go." He notified her.
"I know."
She hated the way Giles was all of a sudden all stiff and scone-y to her. It was completely unnatural and it was if he felt she was a stranger. Most of all it was condescending and mucho annoying.
She shook it off and entered Angel's apartment.
"Angel?" She called.
"Hey." He said.
"There you are." She smiled softly as he sat down on his bed.
"So why the visit?" He asked.
"Well, I talked to Giles…" His grin slowly became a frown. "Why the sudden broody face?"
"What 'sudden broody face'?" He asked, innocently. "I don't get why people always say I brood."
"That's because you are." She said effortlessly.
"Stupid people." He muttered under his breath.
"I love your broodiness." She smiled.
"Okay, so what did Giles say?" He changed the subject.
"There you go again! Always changing the subject when we start acting like ourselves again." Buffy looked down. She was sitting on the bed now.
He took her hand into his. "I'm sorry" He looked into her eyes as he said it.
"So, Giles said that since it wasn't made my a vengeance demon, our selves are merged and just sending one to either universe would just leave one lacking us. So, apparently the other world is like erased unless we go back."
"All we have to do now is choose." He looked to his feet.
"I say here." She whispered.
"Why?" He was confused.
"Isn't it obvious?" She paused. "God, I can never win with you, can I?" His look told her everything she needed to know.
