Unexpected Visitors -- and no, not aliens.

I stare at myself in the mirror. My hair was in two french braids, made me look younger..but mum did my hair, not me, and I wore something..else, than my run down clothes. A white tank top, no..it will not reveal anything, thus I have nothing to reveal, a skirt..another mum..it was a cute skirt. Black with white checkers. My shirt had writting on

The door finally opened and there was Court...

"My little girl," I said proudly as I reached out and engulfed her into a hug.

It felt better then I thought...and I didn't feel like letting go. Bloody strange.

"Courtney, I've missed ya. Finally got made real 'gain...oh, this is Buffy. She's yer future step-mom. You'll like 'er...yer 'lot alike."

Smiling at her, I kissed her forehead then ran my hand along her cheek.

I smiled. I never knew Spike could be so....fatherly... I finally waved a 'hello'.

"Hi, Courtney. I'm Buffy."

I didnt want to be too overbearing. Couldnt have her hate me, now could I?! I reached my hand out to shake hers.

I was overwhealmed! Um..hello! I'm not a social butterfly 'ere, all that jazz.

Still being enfulged in my...father's hug, and I think I was losing oxygen, I manage to wiggle my right arm over to Buffy, and hand out of my hand towards her meekly. Shyly.

I'm sure, remember!?

"Hi.." I repeat to Buffy softly, though she could hear. I couldn't of really been mad at her, not yet anyway, I mean -- how would it be? Yeah, I my one hundred year old or-something boyfriend is a dad to a homless girl. Yeah. I look at her sympatheticaly..

And step mother? STEP MOTHER!? I don't show anything, but I was confused as hell.

Absentmindedly, perhaps it was a hold habit from when I was little? I lean my head on my fathers shoulder, while he squeezes me some more.

It felt..nice. He was still a right bastard, but..it was nice...really nice. Nice. Alright, I'm spazzing again. I'm not mentally chalanged, though because I hav etrouble speaking up..people possibly think I'm mute.

"Hi.." I manage again, nervously.

I smiled once more at her. Once Spike let her out of his 'deathgrip', I pulled her to the side a bit.

"Dont worry, he was exaggerating about the whole 'stepmom' thing. That'll take some time."

I said it quietly so not to let Spike hear. I didnt want her to freak out, and I didnt want him to think I dont love him enough. because I do. And winked at her, a signal not to say anything to him.
