They walked out of the Library in silence, Whistler and Drusilla a few feet behind them.
“So, how-how did you get out of…” she trailed off and tried to swallow past the lump in her throat.
“Hell? Willow".
“Oh. Um…listen, Angel I am SO unbelievably sorry. I had to! I would have stabbed the sword through myself, if-if it meant I wouldn’t kill you, but, but I couldn’t! I’m so, so sorry". She started to cry.
“Angel?” Drusilla spoke up. He looked at her. She whispered so only he could hear, “You better forgive her, love, or soul or no soul, I swear to god I’ll bloody rip your throat out", then smiled sweetly. Angel grinned back and whispered, “You don’t have to worry about that", as he pulled Buffy into his arms whispering soothing words of forgiveness.
“AHA!” a new voice cried out. It was Jessica. “I KNEW it, you slut!” She crawled out from a bush.
“You were following us?” Angel growled, his patience running thin with this girl. He had no idea what made him fall for her in the first place. Jessica shrank back at the tone of his voice.
“I-I knew I couldn’t trust her", she glared at Buffy, who just smirked back, mockingly. That made Jessica even madder.
“Did you actually think that he would want you back?” the girl snarled, viciously. “Why would he want you when he had me?” Drusilla growled, and moved forward, but Whistler held her back.
Buffy just stared at her, stunned. Then she started laughing. Loudly. Mockingly. “I am in no competition with you, little girl. But, if I was, I’d wipe the floor with your ass more ways than one".
Jessica glared. Then she goes, “Then tell me: Why did Angel pick me? Why was I chosen to be slayer? And why, when Angel came back, didn’t he bother looking for you?”
“Because", Buffy answered, matter-of-factly, “he knew I didn’t want to be found. Now go home to your mother, little girl. It’s past your nine o’clock curfew".
It was then that Jessica shot the zinger. “At least I *have* a mother".
Buffy turned around slowly, tears streaming down her face, “And I pity her…for having a spoiled rotten, little brat like you". She whirled around again, and started stalking off, with Drusilla and Whistler trying to comfort her. Angel could see her shoulders shaking.
“Gee", Jessica commented, “what crawled up her butt and died?”
Angel stared at her in astonishment. This girl was stupider than Xander! “You know what Jess?”
“Yes?”
“Shut the hell up". With that, Angel ran off to catch up with Buffy, Drusilla, and Whistler, leaving a very stunned Jessica just standing there.
