sequel and/or prequel?

Briana Summers sat down, playing with the roses in her hand. "Hey, Mum, Dad," she smiled.
"Josepha and Florance insisted I come down and see you today, 'cause I got into UCLA. Aunty Willow wanted me to go to UC Sunnydale, but Oz told her that he'll get me an apartment free of charge while I work there. Aunty Will is worried about me being alone. That Joey and Flora can live here until I get a proper job. I was thinking a waitress - but you don't want your baby girl clearing tables, do you Daddy?
"Daniel also wanted me to stay in Sunnydale. But he doesn't understand what Sunnyhell means to me," Bri lay on her back. "We broke up yesterday. I couldn't hang around Sunnydale all my life - I need to get out. I was actually thinking of working with Aunty Cordelia, Doyle, Gunn and Wes at the agency - I know they've been run off their feet with work.
"I spoke to the adoption agency and both Isabel and Miranda will be moved back into Willow's, until I can organised the apartment in L.A. I'd say Wes will live with us until Flora leaves home. I know she's been looking for her birth mum and all, so maybe that'll be sooner than later.
"It's kinda strange. Me and Joey. Sorry, Joey and I, will be like those sisters on that old soapie Mum used to watch. We all used to moan about how we wanted to watch 'Diaries of the Disheartened', so you gave it up, rememeber Mum?
"I was going to get my hair cut short, but Anya insists that cutting hair like mine would be criminal. Xander was busy with the new baby. He's almost funny." Bri paused, to flick her hair out of her face.
"Anyway, it's now summer - you both already know that. But Giles is taking Flora, Joey and I to London. I'm accepting some awards or something. I can't remember. But I made a decision, at Graduation," Bri swallowed hard. "I'm not ever coming back to Sunnydale, again. Everyone else agrees. They believe that I've had enough of this town forever. You aren't mad, are you?"
Buffy leant down and kissed her daughter's hair. "Of course not, sweetie. You remember the most of the End of Days, so go wherever. Just make sure Joespha is okay with that. And Flora, Izzy and Mira. Promise?"
Angel smiled at Bri. "Always make sure you are happy. Because if you're not, it's not worth it."
Bri looked at the ground. "I promise to make sure Joey and Flora and all are okay with it before I leave. I'll only come back once - on my wedding. I promise."
Bri stood up.
Buffy felt tears slipping down her cheeks. "Miss you, Bri," she whispered.
"Miss you, Mama," Bri said, kissing her hand and pressing it to the gravestones.
Okay. Joey (Joespha) and Bri (Briana) are Buffy and Angel's only real daughters. Florance, Izzy and Miranda are adopted. Buffy and Angel's spirits are talking to Bri. Bri has just graduated and is 18.
The soapy that Buffy watched with the two sisters that Bri refered to is Dawson's Creek, where Bessie raised Joey when their mum died. Feedback is a must if u want a sequel and/or series.
