The One Person I Can Always Count On....

Aug 17, 2005 00:26

I couldn't believe Buffy slept with Angel..not after everything that happened, everything she knew. Not even the fact that she slept with Angel...the fact that she slept with him as...well the blood thirsty demon he is. What was she thinking? Was she even thinking at all? To many questions and not enough answers. Not that if I asked Buffy I would ( Read more... )

I was suppose to be off to England by now but there was a slight problem with my ticket. It would seem the flight was terribly overbooked and I hadn't arrived at the airport in time. My next flight doesn't leave for another day.

Maybe it's for the best though. I still have a few things I needed to do and now I have a little time to finish them in. The flat is quiet tonight, which means I can get a lot of things done. But first I should make myself a cuppa.

I head to the kitchen and start measuring out some loose tea. I put my kettle on and I wait for it to brew. The whistle goes off and I'm about to pour myself a cup when I hear the front door open.

I was about to inquire as to who was there when Dawn jumped in my arms. "Err, hello Dawn," I say as I hug her back.

"Does this mean your staying?"

I looked at him after pulling out of the hug. I knew he wasn't going to be gone forever but it's weird not having Giles here. It's like we rely on him for everything, but he is more like a father...he considers it more like an Uncle to us, but either way he is family.

I looked at his face trying to find some sort of expression, anything would be good about now.

"No," I tell her as I sigh. "There was a mix up with my tickets. I'm still going and will be leaving tomorrow."

I give her a warm smile and softly touch her cheek. Dawn is a sweet girl and sometimes I feel guilty for everything she's gone through. Every time something bad happens, I seem to become more protective of her.

"Now, why don't you tell me why you're out so late. It isn't safe for you to be wandering the streets after dark," I say before pouring the tea in my mug.

I lowered my head so I wouldn't start to cry. Man it was as if he wasn't coming back..even though I knew he would be. It's just well, especially since mom died, it's just been really easy to talk to Giles about things. And with him gone for how ever long I won't be able to come over and have a nice cup of tea and just spill. He has been trying to get me to talk with Buffy about things since she is my sister and all..but that just seems to be getting harder and harder these days ( ... )

I listen closely to everything she has to say. It's a lot to take in. Perhaps we should take one thing at a time.

"Waking dream?" I ask, furrowing my brow. "Like a vision of sorts?" Visions are a tricky thing. They can be merely nothing more than illusions given to you by your mind. Or they could be something more. It'll be something I'd have to research. "Does these visions hurt when they come? Do you feel any sort of pain?"

When she mentions Angelus, my jaw clenches. How many times are we going to have to deal with him? And Buffy's shagging him? Dear Lord!

"Did Buffy tell you it was Angelus?" I ask, yanking my glasses off my face.

dawn_thekey August 18 2005, 02:37:34 UTC

"I suppose it's a vision type deal. And no I didn't feel any pain. I had a headache..but I figured it was just a headache. You know..the normal kind. But why me? I mean as far as I know no one in ur family has visions..and I doubt any part of being the key would have anything to do with it either. Besides it's not like I open anything anymore anyway..so no problems there. Less this is some really bogus side effect ( ... )

"You don't always have to be special to have visions," I tell her once she's done speaking. "Visions are sometimes gift, given to you by higher powers because they think you can handle them. Usually humans can't handle them so this may be about you being the key. I'm not sure though. I'd have to do more research."

Watching her, with the weight of the world on her shoulders is heartbreaking. She's been through so much lately and sometimes I wonder if I'm doing a good enough job in protecting her. Yes, she has a father but he's never around.

"Does Buffy know where Angelus is? We can't have him running about town, terrorizing people."
