Part Eight
Buffy was having a happy. When she was with Angel or talked about Angel she had a major happy. But it was more than that. There was something different about her that I couldn’t quite place. Angel was different around her too. If it was possible he had become more attentive and protective. I thought that maybe it was their getting back together but still the little voice inside me said that there was something more to it...
"Hi Buffy. How are things?"
"Oh Hi Willow. Things are great. Angel’s had to go back to LA for a few days to tie up all the loose ends and I miss him like crazy but things are great. You and Oz?"
"Wonderful. The Dingoes are rehearsing tonight, maybe you and I can do something before patrol."
"There’s a large tub of ice cream in the freezer with our names on it! Girlie chat and ice cream at seven tonight ok with you?"
"Great! See you then.."
**...I really wasn’t in the mood for this. I was feeling agitated and I didn’t know why. Not even speaking to Angel on his cell phone had lessened the feeling. How I was going to keep it together round Willow I didn’t know.
Everything had been find until the end of the day. I’d had a study period and had spent it in the library with Giles trying to find a way to bind Angel’s curse permanently. We’d had no luck. It was as I was saying my goodbyes that the feeling had hit me but I’d managed to hide it well. The journey home had been uneventful but still things didn’t seem right.
The doorbell dragged me back into the real world. Running my fingers through my hair I crossed the room and checked who was there. Seeing Willow I opened the door...**
"Hi Will."
"Buffy? Is everything alright?"
She looked awful. Her face was pale and she appeared to be shaking. This was a complete contrast to the Buffy I’d spoken to earlier.
"I’m fine. Come in."
She turned and walked back into the house. Closing the door behind me I followed her.
"I think you should sit down. You don’t look..."
I didn’t get to finish the sentence as, almost gracefully Buffy crumpled to the ground.
"BUFFY!!!"
And yet more!
I like feedback. It gives me a happy. Working where I do I don't get many of them. Please feed me!
