This was suppose to be one of those monumental moments you know? It's suppose to be some symbol of the life I'm about to start. If mom were still alive she'd be bugging me about grad school or getting a job with some agency or anything. If Buffy were alive she'd be so proud, she'd tell me she loved me and she was so happy for me. I'd be able to ( Read more... )

"My loss, Spike shrugged and tried to follow me inside, but he was hit with the invisible barrier that vampires get smacked with when they are univited ( Read more... )

I had no idea why I kept talking about Buffy to Mike. I mean she was this gorgeous high school girl that even though she was a total freak all the boy like feel at her feet. It was disgusting. And what do I care about her boyfriend with the girly name anyway ( Read more... )
