Part Six
"You knew?" Buffy repeated more forcefully.
"I-- uh... God Buffy... I'm sorry.." Xander stuttered.
"I can't believe you!!!!! I thought I could trust you!!!" she cried in disbelief. "I thought you were my friend."
"Buffy I am-"
"No." she said backing away from him. "Not anymore."
"Buffy..." he managed before she turned and ran away from him, into the school.
"Will...." he turned to her.
"Don't talk to me." she said as she pushed past him.
"Will, where are you going?" he called after her.
"Home!!!" she shouted back at him.
Xander finally let the tears fall as he watched her walk away.
"See, there's no-one here." Lyndsee stated as she glanced around the empty library.
"Let's look up there." Angel pointed towards the stacks.
Lyndsee sighed and followed him.
They both jumped when they heard the door open.
Angel peeked out from behind the bookshelf. "That's him, Giles. Buffy's Watcher." he started to step out into view.
Lyndsee pulled him back. "Angel!!" she hissed. "He doesn't know you're alive, remember? What do you want to do? Give him a heart attack? Stay here and let me go prepare him for the shock."
"Okay." Angel nodded.
"Uh, hello. May I help you?" Giles stammered when he saw the young girl step out from behind the stacks.
"Um yeah. My name is Lyndsee, I'm looking for a Giles."
"Uh yes, that's me." Giles nodded.
"Oh really? Well, my Watcher sent me here, to find you."
"Watcher?" Giles said, surprised. "You're, you're a Slayer?"
"Yeah."
"Who's your Watcher?" he asked, setting down his coffee cup.
"Elliot Blake." she informed him.
"Um, I have a list of all the Watchers in my car. Would you mind coming with me to retrieve them?" he asked, repositioning his glasses.
She shrugged, "Okay lets go."
His relief faded when he saw how upset she was. She was leaning over the counter, her head buried in her hands. She was crying.
Angel quietly descended the stairs and neared her.
His heart pounded as he reached out his hand and touched her back gently.
"Buffy.."
She whirled around, eyes widened, "Angel...."
