Buffy rang the Cooper’s doorbell three times in a row, a look of dead set determination on her face. She was her own person now. To hell with the rest of um. Buffy Summers had gone from uncertain little girl to confident woman in one five minute blow out. She was done living for other people. From now on, it was all about her.

A few seconds pasted before the door swung open. Ryan, who had clearly been asleep squinted at her, “Yeah babe?”

Buffy shook her head, coldness filing her eyes and dripping from her words, “Don’t call me babe. I’m not your anything anymore Ryan.”

Snapping fully awake at this, Ryan shook his head and laughed almost angrily, “So what’s this Buff? Spike tells you that he loves you, more than likely just to get into your pants and now it’s just over between us?”

Buffy rolled her eyes, “You really don’t get it do you? Our relationship has been over for at least a month. It was confirmed not two Saturdays ago when I’d finally had enough. I’m over it all now Ryan.” She paused before smiling, “I think I’m free ya know?”

Ryan ran his fingers through his long blonde hair and nodded, “I’m sorry you know. If it means anything, I had loved you in the beginning.”

Buffy nodded back, “Yeah well I kinda loved you too. I guess it just wasn’t meant to be.”

Ryan looked up at her before asking in a sharper tone, “Are you going to go running from my arms into his?” He really didn’t know if he could take that.

“I don’t have a fucking clue what I’m gonna do Ryan,” Buffy shook her head, sighing heavily, “I almost wish that my life would go back to the way it was before you but then again, I don’t think I’d be the same if you’d never happened to me. I hate you so much right now but I’ll always know you as the guy that changed me for the better.” She laughed at the cheesiness of it all and added, “My first love,”

Ryan laughed and nodded, “Friends?”

Buffy shook her head with a heavy heart, “No.”

With a final sigh, Ryan asked, “Ex’s that can be civil towards each other?”

Buffy smiled, “Always.”

Buffy and Ryan hugged quickly before she started on down the driveway.

Two down, one to go, Buffy thought

I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them
And you know it makes me sick to be on that list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed

You say you're gonna burn before you mellow
I will be the one to burn you
Why'd you have to go and pick me?
When you knew that we were different, completely

I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend

I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed

Your wildness scares me
So does your freedom
You say you can't stand the restrictions
I find myself trying to change you
If you were meant to be my lover I wouldn't have to

And I feel so mean, I feel in between
'Cause I'm about to give you away

I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend (for someone else to take)
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend (am I making a mistake?)
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them (all the time that we wasted)

I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed
I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed

I'm about to give you away for someone else to take
I'm about to give you away for someone else to take

We keep repeating mistakes for souvenirs
And we've been in between the days for years
And I know that when I see you I'm going to die
I know I'm going to want you and you know why
It's going to kill me to see you with the next girl
'Cause I'm the most gorgeously jealous kind of ex-girl

But I should have thought of that before we kissed...
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend
I hope I hold a special place with the rest of them
I kinda always knew I'd end up your ex-girlfriend

I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed
I'm another ex-girlfriend on your list
But I should have thought of that before we kissed

**********************************************************
Sorry it was so short but this was kinda just a mini-chapter. Song: “Ex-girlfriend” by No Doubt because I thought it fit and I’ve been in a No Doubt mood of late. The next and probably final chapter will be up by the end of the night or tomorrow at the latest. Though, there is a twist I could throw in to prolong it and here to think all you would have to do is tell me you want the twist and I’d automatically continue… *hint hint people*
