Buffy was stunned. Giles thought of her as a woman grown. Not the whiny little teenager she had been when she first moved to Sunnydale.

"You really see me as a woman grown? Really?" she asked.

Giles moved closer to her and leaned down till their lips were almost touching. "Yes, I really do think of you as a woman." Then he leaned the rest of the way and she met his lips in a fierce kiss. Once Buffy got past the idea of kissing her old Watcher, she really lost herself in the kiss.

Eventually they broke apart. Buffy was stunned. She had been kissing Giles, and she'd liked it very much.

"I'm sorry, Buffy, I didn't really mean to do that," Giles said.

"Don't be. I rather enjoyed that," Buffy answered. "Giles, I just find it a bit strange, that's all."

"First, you could start calling me Rupert," Giles said. "That is, if you're serious."

"All right Rupert. I am serious," Buffy tested. "So what do we do now?"

"I think we do that again." Giles suggested.

"I'm all right with that." Buffy leaned up and kissed Giles. This time she was the one who deepened the kiss.
