You Got That Something

Buffy blinked a few times. She was sure the good-looking All-American blond guy hadn't been there the whole time. In fact, she was getting not-so-normal vibes off of him. Quickly dusting the vamp in her way, Buffy raced across the alley just as he bent over the woman who'd been knocked down.

"Piper, are you okay?"

"Ow, no that hurt!" The woman snapped, her eyes landing on Buffy. "Who're you?"

"Buffy, and I just saved you from becoming a vamp's dinner," Buffy snapped right back, her gaze going to Leo instead. "What are you?"

""Scuse me, I believe I was asking the questions here," Piper demanded.

"You've got this freaky vibe that's sending off my spidey-senses, and trust me when I say you don't want to be doing that," Buffy demanded.

"Hey, back off of my husband, lady." Piper stood between the two of them ready to freeze or blow her up - however it happened - if she took one more step towards Leo.

"I'm not a threat," Leo answered. "I'm not a vampire or a demon."

"Huh?" Piper asked.

"What are you then?"

"I'm a whitelighter - kinda like guardian angels, every witch gets one. Slayers used to as well, but the Powers didn't want us involved any longer, and the balance demons took over." Leo watched as the woman's face clouded over. "I'm sorry."

"What for? Wasn't your decision," Buffy blinked, her mind recalling what the Powers had said about Angel - both now and then. How the powers couldn't intervene. If this woman was a witch, he was a whitelighter, and they were married, Buffy figured he must understand. "Maybe it's time your boys upstairs take an avid interest."
