"Why do you even want to have internship here? You hate the place." I say to Payton pushing the elevator's button. Wolfram and Hart. This is actually how we with Payton met in the first place. Her dad works here and so does mine. Who knew Wolfram and Hart could actually make someone best friends?

"It will look great at my CV, you know that. Besides, I will probably end up working here after the college anyway." She's right. Payton, even if she hates learning, is great student and will make a great lawyer and Wolfram and Hart is very interested in great lawyers.

"Right. Ok. Why am I here?" Not that I'm complaining coming with Payton to Wolfram and Hart, really. I might run into Faith. Not that it's my main interest here. Well, ok, yeah it is my main reason here, but... I can't help it I can't get her out of my mind. Not that I really have tried hard... um, maybe hard but no so much of the tried...

"You're my support. Besides, your dad owns this place." I'm making sure she gets to do very less and gets paid very much. Figures. This is so in Payton's style. "She works here, doesn't she?" Huh? "That slayer chick you fucked, she works here, doesn't she? I can see it in your eyes." Fuck. Am I that readable? "Yeah, you are." Of course.

"She might be..." I reply as the elevator stops. It would really be pointless to lie to Payton, she always knows what I think. It's pretty scary actually, but that's what's the best friends are for, right? As long as she's more of my best friend that my ex-girlfriend I'm ok. She's frightening ex-girlfriend, believe me, I dated her.

"You're so pathetic, Connor." Of course I am. It figures Payton would say that. But I'm not complaining... I am kinda pathetic. I shake my head and try to ignore her as the elevator door opens and I see dad talking with... something.

"Hey, dad!"
