He wasn't the man she wanted. Giles had no idea he'd spoken the words aloud until he heard her voice behind him.

“You’re wrong."

He quickly spun around to face her. "Excuse me. How am I wrong?"

A smile crossed Buffy's face. "You are the man I want.”

"I... uh.... I..." Giles was all stammers as he stared down at Buffy. He shook his head and cleared his throat. "I am? Are you sure?"

Buffy nodded and moved close enough to thread her fingers between the buttonholes of his shirt. "I've never been more sure of anything in my life."

Yay! Figures that Buffy would have to make the first move. ;)

I hope you don't mind. I've added you as a friend. I'm so glad our fandom is still active after all these years (although I'm kind of newish).

Thank you very much!

[angelus2hot]

Oh he plans on it! :D

[angelus2hot]

Of course she would be but who could blame her? :D

I don't mind a bit and I've friended you right back. So am I.
