Chapter 1

“Are you sure? Do you want this?

“Mmmm, yes please, very sure.”

Buffy snaps awake in bed, looking around she sees her sheets piled all around her. To her right she notices that the bed is empty beside her. There is an obvious spot where some-one has been. She reaches over and runs her hand over the sheet, the spot is still warm. Buffy pouts as she thinks, “Not here, wonder where?” As she lays there thinking, she sees the time on her clock, “Damn I am going to be late she says as she jumps from bed.
“Come on Buffy, get it together, we are going to be so late,” As she moves towards the bathroom, the reflection from her mirror stops her.

Looking into the mirror Buffy realizes that she is naked. Thinking back to last night brings a blush to her cheeks. Talking to the reflection she says, “Wow, is this me? Last night was not a dream then, “that thought brings a smile to her face as she gathers up a towel and clothing to head to the bathroom. In the bathroom as she brushes her teeth Buffy looks hard at herself in the mirror. As she looks closer into the mirror thoughts race through her mind, “I don’t get it, what does anyone see here?” After finishing her teeth she runs her hands down her body from her shoulders to her hips, turning around she looks back over her shoulder. Looking closer she brings a hand back up to her left shoulder and looks closely at a bruise. Talking to herself she frowns at the bruise, “That can’t be…It is those are teeth marks.” The though of how and who put them there brings a smile to Buffy’s face. The thought of the person responsible quickens Buffy’s pulse as tingles runs through her body.

“I have to shower,” She says to herself, “or we will be really, really late.” As she closes the bathroom door she hears voices from downstairs. One of the voices brings a giddy smile to her face as the door closes. While showering Buffy thinks back to last night and how chance and choices made decide what happens. Thinking more Buffy wonders, “What would have happened if I had not dropped Professor Walsh’s class. Who knew she and Riley were part of some super-secret government program.
“Talking to myself, maybe not so good,” Buffy says to herself as she finishes her shower.

The smell of flowers hit Buffy as she opens the bathroom door. The smell is coming from her mother’s…Her room. The room that she sleeps in has never seemed like hers. Buffy was always waiting for her mother to come back and say, “Okay that’s nice but put your stuff back in your room right now young lady.” With the smell of flowers coming from the open door she realizes that last night the room, once her mother’s, had become hers.
Buffy stops in the doorway, her mouth open with only a slight “Oh” coming from it. Strewn about the room and all over the bed were roses; white, yellow and many red roses. The floor was covered with petals of all colors and the perfume of the flowers was drifting into the hallway.

A shout from downstairs breaks Buffy’s trance. “Hey Buffy, are you coming down? We are going to be late to school.” A sigh escapes Buffy’s mouth and then she shouts back, “I’m getting dressed Dawn, be right there.” After getting dressed Buffy heads downstairs, quietly. She turns quickly into the kitchen hoping to surprise her new lover. Buffy stops short, looking around she sees only Dawn in a chair, eating. Buffy asks, “Where did?”
Dawn speaks up, fork in hand, “Left, could not wait any longer, sleepyhead.” Buffy looking at her sister and the food, stammers, “But, I wanted to, why” Dawn now looking serious say, “Come on Buffy, eat we can’t be late again, I have a test.”

Buffy sits and says sadly, “Ah, yah, good old food for me.” As she fills her plate she feels hands cover her eyes and hears Dawn cheer. For a moment Buffy tenses and almost attacks the person or thing behind her. She stops though as the smell of roses drift into her brain. A smile forms on her face as a body snuggles up to hers from behind. She hears loud cheering from her sister as she leans back into the warm, mostly, naked body behind her. A shiver goes through her as warm breath drifts over her neck and she hears, “Good morning mia bella, not too tired are we?” Buffy starts to turn but a kiss on the neck stops her and brings a moan to her lips. The voice behind her says, “No, no, no you have to eat and go. Dawnie is right; I will meet you at the school for lunch okay?” Buffy, the hands still on her eyes just nods a bit trying to think of food and not the body behind her. Being this close brings back memories of soft kisses and hot caresses from last night.

The hands vanish and she hears the door open and close as she starts to eat. As she chews, hard with such a huge smile on her face Buffy thinks to herself, “This is good, all goody, goodness for me, for once.” A strangled laugh comes from across the table. Buffy looks up at her sister with a stare and says, “What?” Dawn with a look of innocence says to her sister, “Nothing, Did I say anything?” As Dawn leaves the table Buffy is sure she hears her sister whispering, “Juliet, oh Juliet where for art thou.” Buffy looks at her sister’s back and thinks, “I should be mad but she is right, I may have found my Juliet.”
