Spent the past few months where I spend most my time, out of the bloody loop. Guess I figured wrong when I thought I was part of the gang after what happened with the slayer, not like I wanted to join thier study group or nab a secret scooby decoder ring or some bullocks, but I thought I was sortof in, in a James Dean kinda way.

I'm not the sortof person to make plans, so saying I never planned to be here now is more or less pointless. I didn't plan to be anywhere, but I didn't think It'd be LA.

I idle Dad's truck to a stop across the street from the house and then glance down at the internet directions I had Chloe print for me. She was a little confused, but for once in her life didn't ask questions. I know I'll have to come up with some sort of good excuse when I get back, but I'll worry about that later ( Read more... )

I can't believe they didn't tell me about it. She was my sister! But no, it's too dangerous for Dawnie, she can't get her hopes up, she's not old enough. I'm almost sixteen, hello! They were planning on raising my dead sister from the grave and I couldn't know. Well, they didn't tell Spike, either, but that was for different ( Read more... )
