Buffy, Willow and Xander were at the Bronze sitting at their usual table and in their usual seats and hearing the same music as always.

Buffy was in a rut, and that was depressing.

Willow was laughing at some joke that Xander said, so she thought she should react some how so she smiled.

"Hey! Look Willow I made 'Buffy the Depressed' smile!," said Xander in his typical joking way. Buffy looked up at the sound of her name being said. "Look guys I might want to go home, because I'm just kinda tired." "But Buffy how about a couple more songs ok?" said Willow watching The door."I don't know I might" said Buffy as she sat back down. She was back into her little world when a song came on.

A song that was meant for her and Him .

*Show me the meaning of being lonely*

A dark figure came up behind her and whispered in her ear." May I have this Dance M'Lady?" He asked as he reached out his hand. Buffy stood up and took his hand. she thought as walked out on the dance floor with him.

*So many words for the broken heart
It's hard to see in a crimson love
So hard to breathe walk with me,
and maybe*

"You left"

"I didn't want to"

*Nights of light so soon become
Wild and free I could fell the sun
Your every wish will be done
They tell me....

"I loved you"

"I still do"

"Why'd you leave me? "

"I thought it was for the best"

"You thought wrong"

*Show me the meaning of being lonely
Is this the feeling I need to walk with?
Tell me why I can't be there where you
There's something missing in my heart*

Back at the table:

"Look at those two, it's as if he never left! " said Xander full of jealousy.

"Yeah I know isn't it great romantic?"asked Willow

"Hey who's that guy with Buffy?" said Riley as he sat beside Willow with a drink.

"Old boyfriend." said Xander loving telling Riley this.

"WHAT??!!" screamed Riley.

*Life goes on like as it never ends
Eyes of stone observe the trends
They never say forever gaze
Guilty roads to an endless love
There's no control
Are you with me now
Your every wish will be done
They tell me...*

Buffy and Angel weren't paying attention to the scene Riley was making. They were lost in each others arms.

"Are you here to stay?"

"Do you still want me to?"

"Yes I want you with me forever"

*Show me the meaning of being lonely Is
this the feeling I need to walk with?
Tell me why I can't be there where you
There's something missing in my heart*

"Excuse me I want to dance with my girlfriend" said Riley pathetically trying to break up the two lovers. But Buffy and

Angel didn't hear Riley they were focused now on the words of the song.

*There's nowhere to run
I have no place to go
Surrender my heart, body and soul How
can it be you're asking me to feel
The things you never show
You are missing in my heart
Tell me why I can't be ther where you are*

"Why'd you come back?"

" I have a surprise."

"What is it?"

"It won't be a surprise if I tell you"

"Tell me"

"Wait until the end"

*Show me the meaning of being lonely Is
this the feeling I need to walk with? Tell
me why I can't be there where you are
There's something missing in my heart*

As the song ended they were still togethor.

Xander was trying to explain that Riley has no chance of beating Angel in Buffy's heart.

"Will you tell me now?" asked Buffy

Angel moved his head close to her ear and whispered two words. "I'm human"

[ The oracles watching from aboove with the powers."I think this was the best present a slayer has ever gotten." said the female. "For once I agree with you"said the male as they turned back to watch the lovers leave]
