Buffy woke up, rubbed her eyes and looked at her calendar. She sat in silence.
Today was the 30th.
Today was the end.
Today was the day the slayer died.
She walked down the stairs and saw her mom. Buffy went up and hugged her.
"What," Joyce asked "have you done?"
"Nothing" Buffy said sadly
"Did you have nightmares again Buffy?" Joyce passed her a glass of orange juice "I think tomorrow night we should sit and have a chat about them, don't you?"
Buffy swallowed a mouthful of freshly squeezed juice and was about to answer when a car horn honked outside.
"Oh, dear, is that the time? I've gotta go. The gallery!" Joyce kissed Buffy on her cheek and then ran out of the house.
A small tear ran down Buffy face, but she wiped it away. She was determined to stay strong today, no matter what happened. She was hoping that this 'god' would be there in person.
That way she might be able to kill it and survive.
'Who am i kidding' she thought.
She put her empty glass in the dishwasher and walked out of the door to face the start of the last day of her life.
==+==
Buffy had called a meeting in the libery. It was a saturday and 'big shock', thought Buffy, Cordy as already complaining. She could hear Xander trying to explain that today was for Buffy.
She took a deep breath and walked into the libery. Everyone stopped talking.
Everyone was there. Will, Oz, Xander, Giles, Jenny...Everyone except Angel. She was saving Angel for later for two reasons.
One. She wanted to see him in private because she was hoping for some serious smooching before she died. And
Two. It was day
"So..." Buffy stood up by the desk. "Umm, I wanted to talk to you all about my funeral"
The silence echoed around the room and into her ears.
"Well, for a start i want 'Full of Grace' by Sarah McLachlan to be played. And everyone has to wear Black gypsy skirts, oh except the guys, i will skip your embarrassment and let you wear black linen trousers
Oz, you can play there if you want. Umm, that's about it. I just want to say I will miss you guys so much. Your the best friends any girl or any slayer can have" Buffy could feel the tears swelling up in her eyes.
"Can we change the subject? I don't want to get all blubbery"
Willow stood up and ran at Buffy, throwing her arms around her best friends neck.
"Buffy, this doesn't seem real. You can't die. What will we do without you. What will i do?"

It was about midday before Buffy got out of the school. She had arranged to meet back at 6pm. 2 Hours before she was going to die. But now she had someone important to see. Angel
He was waiting for her. He was wearing a black tux with a bunch of white roses in his hands.
He handed the to her and stood behind her. He placed his hands over her eyes. The sudden cold made her shiver. He lead her into his bathroom, where he removed his hands. When she felt his hands move, she opened her eyes.
The bathroom floor was covered in red rose petals. All around the room, were lit beige candles. But in front of her was the most beautiful dress she had ever seen.
She turned around. Angel smiled at her and turned around the face the door.
Within a few minutes she had on the beautiful dress.
"Angel, this is-"
"Shh" he placed a single finger on her lips. "This isn't it"
He lead her into the dining room, were the table was laid for two with a magnificent dinner for two.
##~~*~~##
"That was the best meal I have every had" Said Buffy as she placed her knife and fork down on the china plate. "I don't suppose you enjoyed it much though" She looked at Angel
He also put down his knife and fork. "Well, I couldn't taste a thing but, it was worth it to be with you" He lent over and kissed her on her lips.
"What time it she asked?"
Angel stood up and looked though the door into the living at read the time of the clock on the mantelpiece. "Umm, 7"
Buffy stood up and knocked over her chair in panic. "7!?" she gasped. "I'm an hour late! I'm gonna...It's gonna happen in an hour"
Angel put his arms around her and held her for possibly the last time ever.
