Buffy Summers and Cordy Summers had always been the two girls
at Nashvillle High who everyone knew and loved. They always
looked completely put together and were never single.
Unfortunately for them, with every perfect life there comes
that one thing that is bound to screw things up and for them,
that one thing was "The Parents." Buffy Summers and Cordy
Summers had very strict parents, especially their father.

"Buffy, Cordy, please come down here. Your mother and I would
like to have a chat with you." Hank Summers called from
downstairs.

"Coming Daddy," Cordy yelled down.

Buffy had ran into the bathroom to fix her hair before she had
to slip on her hat and gown. Just as she was putting the
finishing touches on her make-up, her sister came running in.
"Buff, hurry up we need to be downstairs so Dad can give us
the Talk" Cordy said, rolling her eyes.

As Buffy dropped her eye liner in the basket she turned to
Cordy and asked, "What is it with him? I mean, in 9th grade
this was fine but we're eighteen now and he still treates us
like we're in junior high."

Cordy walked over to her sister's bed to sit down "Hell if I
know."

Buffy shook her hair back, ran over to her closet to slip on
her three-inch black heels and said, "Come on lets go. I have
a speech to make and then you and I have plans tonight."

DOWN STAIRS


"So as I said before, you will not under any circumstances be
attending any afterparties. God knows what will be going on
there. You will come straight home and have a nice family
dinner with your mother and I. Understand?" Hank asked his
daughters.

When Buffy and Cordy nodded, Hank stopped dead in his tracks,
looking at his daughters and tilting his head. "Something
isn't right. Knowing the two of you, right about now you
should begging me to let you go to the afterparty. What's
going on?"

Cordy stood up, walking over to her dad and saying with a
sickly sweet tone, "Daddy, we understand that you are only
telling us to do this for our own good. Don't worry, we have
no sneaky plans. We just want to make you happy." She hugged
him and ran up the stairs.

Buffy looked at her father with wide eyes and then at the
stairs before she stood up and straightened her gown, "Gotta
run dad. We gotta finish getting ready."Buffy said as she ran
upstairs.



UP STAIRS


Buffy walked into Cordy's room, slamming the door shut and
glaring at Cordy.

Cordy looked up, "What?"

"Nice job with the, 'Of course we don't have any sneaky plans
Daddy, don't worry." Buffy repeated sarcasticly.

Cordy rolled her eyes and said, "Ohhhh, please, you know he
didn't think anything of it."

Buffy turned around and walked to the door before asking, "You
have your stuff packed right?"

Cordy looked up from her bed and replied, "Yes mother."


BUFFY'S ROOM


Dear, Mom and Dad

By the time you get this me and Cordy will be gone. I
know you're madder then hell with us right now but please
don't be. We did this for because we need to find out who we
really are without you guys watching our backs every five
minutes and trying to fight our battles. Don't worry about us,
we are just going on a little vacation and we'll be back soon,
maybe even by the end of summer. Please dont be mad, we love
you lots.


Love,

Cordy And Buffy

P.S. We promise to call often

Buffy finished writing the letter before sticking it in a
little white envolope and putting it in her white leather purse.

Just as she turned off the light on the nightstand, she heard
her father call for her and Cordy to come downstairs, it was
time to go. She grabbed her vanilla lipgloss and dashed out
the door.

As Buffy and Cordy sat in the backsit of her father's limo on
the way, Cordy leaned over to whisperin Buffy's ear, "Are you
sure you're ready for this?"
Buffy looked at her and then out the window not wanting to
answer that question. SHe knew that that is was too late to
change their minds. There was no going back now.

Buffy and her family arrived at Nashville High around 8:30 pm
to take pictures before the graduation ceremony. Buffy was
currently dating Riley Finn and Cordy was dating his best
friend Angel, flithy rich snobs who neither girl liked very
much, but who their father forced them to date.
As the two girls stepped out of the limo they heard, "Buffy,
hun over here."

Buffy turned her head and saw Riley shouting from across the
field. She walked over towards him and hugged him with a
barely concealed grimace."How are ya Riley?" she asked with a
fake smile.

Riley wrapped his arm around her shoulder and kissed her
forehead. "I'm great sweetie, but listen, I need to talk to
you about something. Do you think you could meet me after the
ceremony at and after party or somewhere?" Riley asked her in a
whisper while smiling toward the camera that his father was
holding.

Buffy looked up at him and frowned, "Riley, you know I can't
go to any after parties, my father would kill me. Whatever you
have to tell me you can just tell me here"
Riley asked his father to give him a minute before pulling
Buffy away from the crowd in the middle of the lawn. As they
were walking Buffy noticed Cordy and Angel engaged in what
looked like a very heavy conversation,

"So, you're telling me this whole time we have been dating
I've meant nothing to you?"Cordy demanded of Angel, starting
to pace back and forth. As he turned to her, she noticed him
glance at a girl walking over to the fountain in the lawn.
Cordy looked at him and then back at the girl at the water
fountain, realizing who it was.

"WHAT, why are you looking at her like some starving lion?
Don't tell that you two have been fooling around with each
other behind my back?"

Angel grabbed Cordy by her upper arm to keep her from running
away. "No Cordy sweetie, it wasn't like that. I promise I
would never cheat on you." Angel said to her in a pleading
tone. He let go of her arm when he saw her begin to soften up.

"I wanna know the truth Angel. I wanna know what the hell has
been going on."

Angel looked across the lawn toward Buffy and Riley before
turning back to Cordy and saying. "Okay, remember that summer
when you and Buffy went to England?"

Cordy nodded.

"Well, I met this girl and since you weren't here I didn't
think it would matter so I fooled around with her, and I'm so
sor-" Angel didn't get to finish his sentence as he felt a
sharp slap to his cheek.

"You sorry son of a bitch."Cordy said to him in a tone that
could make anyone's skin crawl.

Angel dropped his head to the ground.

"Thank god, I never gave myself to you. I knew if I did I
would regret it and I sure as hell was right."Cordy said in a
whisper.

Angel looked up at her, "Cordy, I wasn't the only one. Riley
cheated on Buffy with Darla."

Buffy overheard and looked over at Angel and Cordy before
looking back at Riley. There was only mirth in her eyes as she
burst out laughing.

Riley looked around furtively to check if anyone was watching
before growling at her, "Come on Buffy knock it off. This is
embarrassing."

Buffy stopped laughing and glared at him. "You know Riley I
always knew there was something going on between you and
Darla. You and Angel weren't as tricky as you thought you
were. I couldn't be more happy to find out that my suspicions
were correct. Don't try to mess with the Summers girls again."
Buffy said to him proudly before turning to walk away. "Ohhh,
yeah and have fun with herpes girl. I'm sure she'll be one
hell of a ride."

********************************************************************************************
2 hours later
*******************************************************************************************
Principal Robin Wood raised his hands to say, "Will the Class
of 2004 please take your seats."

The class of 2004 sat down, and watched the principal announce
Buffy. "Now it is great honor for me to present to you Buffy
Summers of the class of 2004 with her
speech."

Buffy walked across the stage, giving Cordy a quick wink and
waving to her mother who was holding up their video camera,
before approaching the mic.
"My fellow Graduates it is a great honor to be the one who
gets to speak to you all on such an important day in our
lives. They say your high school years are the best years of
your life. They sure were a lot of fun but I'm hoping that
they just keep getting better. As you leave here today I want
each and every single one of you to know that things will get
rough, we will have many choices to make in life and I can
promise you they will not be easy. But you are prepared to
make these choices. Be strong, live, laugh and learn and
never forget that each step you take you are moving forwards.
Live this moment for you have worked hard and succeeded. Laugh
at this moment, for there were those of you standing here who
thought you would never make it this far. Look at your gown.
You did it! Last but not least, learn from this moment,
treasure it, know that if you can do this then you can do
anything that comes your way." Buffy finished her speech with
a smile before saying loudly into the mic,

"I give to you the class of 2004. Please stand with me."

And the Nashville High class of 2004 threw their caps into
the air

That night, following graduation, Buffy awoke to the soft ring
of her alarm clock. She jumped out of bed, pulling her
suitcase out from underneath the bed and throwing on some
clothes. Dressed, she tiptoed over to Cordy's room and tapped
on her door, opening it a crack and whispering, "Cordy, wake
up. It's time to get a move on."

Buffy leaned against the wall to wait and moments later Cordy
emerged, handing Buffy her three bags.

Buffy looked down at the bags in her arms, dropping them to
the floor with a heavy thud

Cordy glared at Buffy and asked sarcastically, "God, could you
be any louder?"

"Well, that wouldn't have been so loud if you hadn't packed so
damn much. Cordy, you do realize we're only going for the summer?"

Cordy looked at Buffy and confessed quietly, "No Buffy, you're
only going for the summer. I'm not coming back. There is
nothing here for me. I need to get away from this place and
really live."

Buffy looked at her sister and could see. Their dad was on
Cordy's case even more than he was on Buffy's.

Buffy nodded. "Lets go hun," she said with a smile while
grabbing her bags. On the way out she slipped the note from
her purse onto the coffee table where their parents would see
it when they woke up.



Cordy looked over at Buffy in the driver's seat, "So my
dearest sister, what's our first stop?"she asked Buffy with a
giddy smile.

Buffy looked over and laughed as she saw the goofy smile Cordy
was wearing. "The first place we are making going to is to our
favorite club. We have to pick up something."



Buffy pulled into a parking space and the girls stepped out of
the car.

"Buffy, Cordy, over here."Andrew shouted to them from the club
door.

Cordy ran across the parking lot and straight into Andrew's arms.

"Oh my God Andrew, I haven't seen you in forever! What are you
doing here?" Cordy asked him.

Andrew turned to Buffy with a questioning glance beofre
turning back to Cordy and asking, "Buffy, didn't tell you I
was coming on the road with you?"

Cordy's mouth snapped open and looked toward Buffy.

Buffy lifted her hand to Cordy and said, "Don't even start. We
dont have time for arguments right now. Are you guys ready to
get out of here?"

Andrew looked down and his eyes grew wide, not sure how to
tell Buffy what he had to tell her.

"Andrew what's up?" Buffy asked.

"Well, um, you see Buffy, I kinda invited two other people
with us cause they have a gig in Sunnydale and no other way to
get there." Andrew told her quickly while looking behind her.

"Andrew - " Buffy paused mid-sentence as she turned to look
behind her, forgetting Andrew's statement, forgetting
everything cause, holy crap, the man standing behind her had
just set her heart pounding away in her chest.

He was of an average height, but boy did he make the most of
it. Everything about this man screamed "bad boy," from his
long leather coat, and his tight, faded jeans, to his platinum
blonde hair slicked back to his head. His jaw was strong, his
cheekbones high, and his eyes icey blue. His mouth looked as
if it had been created for the sole purpose of kissing. He
looked like a god.

He snapped his fingers in front of her face to get her attention.

She finally snapped out of her gaze and looked at the man
standing before her.

"Hey love, I'm a thinkin you need a drink you're lookin a
little tense." He told her with a warm smile.

She smiled and replied, "I think you're right. You're good."

A slight smile curved across his face as he responded, "You
have no idea just how good I am."

She giggled as her mind filled with thoughts of what he could
do. She had to give herself a little credit: only half were
porn related. Maybe over half but whatever, math was never her
strong point.

His voice pulled her out of her yummy daze, "Don't worry love,
there's no line. You wont have to wait that long."

Buffy noticed his suggestive tone and replied "You think
you're that good?"

The man chuckled deep in his throat and backed Buffy up
against the wall. "I've been told I can turn a few worlds
upside down. "He whispered into her ear, sinding shivers
through her body.

She knew she should have walked away and made him beg for
forgiviness for his presumptiousness, but she was so drawn to
him. No man had ever her feel a lust like this before. So
instead she decided to go with it, confidently grinning back,
"I've been known to turn a few worlds upside down myself."

His cocky grin was replaced with a tightning in his cheeks,
finally managing to reply, "So kitten likes to play huh?

She looked at him and said, "I've been to busy to play lately,
but it seems as though some time has just opened up in my
schedule."

Before he could say anything Buffy asked, "What insturment do
you play?"

"The guitar. Do you play anything?"

"Nope. I'm definitely not a musician."

He leaned into her a little more before saying,

"Really? Because I can see you playing the clarinet."

Her mouth opened and closed like a fish out of water. She had
a feeling he wasn't talkiing about the musical instrument.

"I don't even know your name" Buffy realized.

He curled his tongue behind his teeth before replying,

"The name's Spike. And I already know your name"

Buffy smiled before frowning, "What kind of a name is Spike?"

"It's a nickname."

"Why Spike?"

He backed off the wall and turned around to walk to Cordy's
black truck where everyone else was waiting. "You'll find out
soon enough."

Buffy took a deep breath and before following him to the car,
mumbling under her breath, "This is gonna be one hell of a ride."
