“Why does that not surprise me?” Buffy growled, pushing her way through the door.

 

“Excuse me?”

 

“You! You and your… Britishness!”

 

“I’m afraid I don’t follow.”

 

“Of course you wouldn’t!”

 

Giles blinked owlishly at her.

 

“Your… ingrained need to… repress! Everyone spilled their guts tonight because of that truth serum-y demon blood. And you… all you had to say was, ‘Sorry, Xander, I ate the last slice of pizza!’”

 

“Well, everyone blamed him.”

 

“I told you I’m in love you. I just thought maybe… that you might…”

 

Taking her hands in his, he replied gently, “That's never been a secret.”
