I glanced down at Charlie's shoes. "Cute shoes," I said trying to seem upbeat. "Ready?"
Cute shoes? Cute Shoes? Nice Segway Buffy. I chidded myself internally just waiting for Charlie to start laughing at me. The one actual friend I'd made here and I'm acting like, well actually a lot like I did when I first moved to Sunnydale.
What ever happened to cool confident Buffy? The Buffy that was pretty good at handling most situations? I think she went down in a blaze of glory with the high school. Add Faith's return into that mix and I'm just a bundle of nervous energy. And I'm not good with nervous energy; I normally end up hurting someone, sometimes myself.
I kept thinking about mom and Dawn and worrying. Faith was the type to attempt to hit me where it hurt most. And since Angel wasn't around for her to try to seduce she'd go after mom and Dawn. I hadn't been home in a while and I felt guilty.
Then there is the succubbus. Good things come in twos I guess. Faith, Succubbus, or wait wasn't that threes? Did that mean something else was going to go down to insure that my life was going to suck beyond measure soon? Cause come on, there's only so much a girl can take. Slayer even, a slayer can only handle so many demons at a time.
Plus that whole together forever scooby gang thing? It felt ... missing or something. Sure I was hanging out with Xander a lot and it was great because well it's Xand but have I seen Will lately? That would be a negative and that really sucks because we were suppose to do this whole college thing together. It was going to be great, and now? I don't see her and I hate it.
I'm not even mentioning that she would be the best in the succubbus research department, with her theory about Tucker. Who by the way will never get on my good side. That prom fiasco is not far from my memory. Maybe she's still mad at me about the roomate mix up. But it's not like I did it on purpose and has she met kathy?
That's a whole other can of worms I'm not itching to break free.
I shook the thoughts out of my head and looked at Charlie then to Xander. He was being stare guy. Uh oh, I hope Xander's interest didn't mean Charlie was a demon of some sort, because that would just be my luck.
