"This bandage should hold. Just change the bandages once a day and clean the scratches. Keep it on when you come to school on Monday. I’ll take a look at it again then, and if everything looks well, you should be able to go without starting then," Giles said as he checked the bandage one last time.
"I’m glad it’s Friday night," Cordelia said.
"I guess we should go now then, huh?" Buffy said.
"Right. Xander, do you need a ride back home?" Giles asked.
Xander glanced to Cordelia quickly and saw the answer in her eyes. "No, I think I’ll stay a little longer. I’ll get a ride later, thanks," Xander said.
"In that case, we should go try to find that werewolf. Come Buffy," Giles said.
"Night," Buffy said and walked out of the kitchen.
"Later, Buff. Later Giles," Xander said.
"Giles, and Buffy, um, thank you," Cordelia said.
Startled, Buffy popped her head back around the corner.
Giles smiled and said, "Your welcome. We’re just happy that you are fine."
"And not a werewolf," Buffy added. "But we really should go now." She wanted to leave before someone (like Cordy) says something that would break up this happy moment.
"Right, good night," Giles said.
As Giles and Buffy left the room on their way out to Giles’ car, Cordelia sat down sideways on Xander’s lap, throwing her arms around him and resting her head on his shoulder.
Xander put his arms around her, to both hold her and to keep her from sliding off his lap.
"Thank you," she whispered in his ear, then quietly cried on his shoulder. This time from relief.

Dru sensed something was wrong when she entered the house. The walls spoke of pain. But it wasn’t a pleasant pain.
"Dru, isn’t it just a lovely evening," Spike said with a grin.
"It was beautiful. But now it’s all dark," Dru replied.
"Of course it’s dark. It’s night," Spike said. He only casually wondered what she was thinking now.
"Angel, he’s in pain," Dru realized. "I’m going to help his healing."
"You just do that, why don’t you," Spike said, finally losing his smile as she walked to Angelus’ room.

Upon hearing a knock on his door, Angelus said, "I said I don’t want to be bothered."
Dru walked in anyway. Angelus sat up a bit in his bed.
"Angel, you have a booboo. Do you want me to kiss it and make it all better?" Dru said.
Angelus just smirked and lay back down on the bed. "Not tonight, Dru. Not tonight."
