December had finally arrived and finals were two weeks away. Buffy dreaded this moment since she started at UC Sunnydale. Though she needed to find a study partner. 'I could ask Willow, 'cause she got the brains. Or I could ask Angel. Though I doubt he'd want to help me after I kissed Parker. Oh, well.'
"Buffy." She looked up and noticed that it wasn't Angel, but instead it was Parker Abrams. She didn't like him at all. After the incident that he pulled at the initiation, she didn't want to be near him.
"Parker. What do you want?"
"Come on, Buffy. I didn't mean any harm. Besides I thought you and I created a special bond. I mean that kiss was something, wasn't it."
"Yeah, it was disgusting. I only kissed you because I was told to. You're not my type anyway."
"So what is your type? Perhaps Angel McCrohan." Before Buffy had the chance to answer, Angel came over to interrupt them.
"Hey Buffy. Oh, I'm sorry, did I interrupt something?" he asked looking at the two of them.
"No! Please have a seat. Parker was just leaving, weren't you?" Angel sat down and looked up at Parker.
"Parker."
"Angel. I see you came to rescue your girl from me. You're thinking I might steal this one away, too."
"Parker, she's not my girl. And since when do you care about whom I talk to? What you and Buffy here have something that I know about?"
"Actually, we might have something one of these days. You just wait and see. The next time you see Buffy, I'll be the man sitting by her side," he said smiling and then walked away. Angel faced Buffy and started to speak.
"So you and Parker huh? I expected a better judge of character from you," Angel said with a smirk.
"There's no Parker and me. He's not my type. Besides I like someone else."
"So who is he? Is he someone I know," he said leaning in closer.
"I'm not telling you. So are you ready for finals?" she said changing the subject.
"Yeah, more or less. Though we have these last two weeks to review. How about you?"
"Well, I've got Willow to help me out Biology, but I need help with Art History. So I was wondering if you could help me out? I mean unless it'sβ¦"
"No, I don't mind at all. Do you want to meet in my dorm room or yours? Or do you prefer the library?"
"You and libraries don't go well together. I don't want while were reviewing that you have horny thoughts." Angel laughed. He couldn't believe that she remembered that.
"I know, but I won't. Trust me when I say this. The last thing that would be on my mind during finals is having sex or thinking it for that matter."
