Joyce was making Buffy�s life really hard.  But it was just about to get harder.  Buffy and Willow went out one night and ended up going to the Bronze.  Buffy saw a lot of people she knew, but stayed away from them.  She was heading up to the bar to get a coke, when some guy came up behind her.  He put his arms around her and whispered in to her ear.  �You�re just about the prettiest thing I have seen in her all night.�
Buffy turned around to see a talk man giving her the biggest smile in the world.  He was looking down her shirt now she could tell he must be drunk or high.  But when he smiled and looked in her eyes she felt all warm inside.  �Hi my names Buffy what�s yours?�  She asked putting her hand out for him. 
�That does not matter right now, so how old are you Buffy?�  He asked her.
�I am 17, why does your name not matter?�
�If I told you, it would not matter because either way we are going to end up having sex.�  He said laughing as he put his hand on her arm.  He started to lead her from the bar to the door.  She stopped him before they made it to the door.  �I have to at less tell my friend good bye.�  Buffy told him.  He nodded as Buffy went to find Willow to tell her good bye.
Reaching the door again she found him talking to the bouncer waiting for her.  When she reached him, she placed her arms in his and gave him a kiss on the neck.  His smile grew as they walked outside.  Reaching his car he pushed her against the side door.  Kissing her neck as his hands wondered down to her skirt.  Lifting up her skirt his fingers went up and found the scrap of fabric covering her warm cunt.  Pushing that aside his fingers went right up inside her warm body.  Buffy let out a small cry. 
Opening the door for her he said her on the seat, bending down he spread her legs open.  Finding her clit with his tongue he gave it a little lick.  By now Buffy had lost it mental.  She had been good for over a month now and tonight it was all about to change.  As he moved around to his door Buffy slid in, and moved to close the door.  He said in and looked at her �My name is Riley honey, and you and I are going to have a lot of fun together.�
Buffy and Riley began to see each other once or so a week.  They would met at night and have their fun together.  But the whole time Buffy would be seeing Spike.  Spike was about to go out of state in a few days so Buffy decide it was time to break things off.  So one day during her class with Willow she told Will how she had planed to leave Spike, but she also told her about Riley.  Willow was not happy with Buffy but knew that her life had always been trouble and that it would take a lot to fix Buffy.
Buffy finally told Spike that she wanted out of the relationship while he was away.  Surprisingly Spike took it rather well, he was ok with while he was gone, but when he got back wanted to make things right again.  So Buffy was left with Riley, and finding away to stop this self hurting path of sex with him.  She knew of no way to make him leave her, because she was afraid he would not take it as Spike did, and would hurt her. 
Buffy went home from school one day to find a message from a man named Giles, all he said was that he would be over to see Buffy in a few minutes.  Buffy walked in to the living room, just as the door bell rang.  Walking to the door she met a tall, older man.  �Miss. Buffy Summers I guess?�  Giles asked.
She nodded and showed him in.  �I am Giles, I work for the sexual crimes department down town.  We have heard about you and have something we need to ask you.  We are wondering if you would be willing to help us catch some well bad guys.� 
Buffy and Giles talked for an hour before Buffy finally told him she could not help.  Buffy knew that if she was to help them, Riley would find out and hurt her some how.  So she took Giles phone number and showed him out.  She knew that some day he could help her and she would be able to help him.
Buffy wondered upstairs to call her friend Willow, she wanted to stay over there tonight, because Joyce was coming back to town and there was nothing that she hated worse then seeing her mother.  So when Willow did not answer she decided that she could spend time looking for a job for summer.  School would be out in two months and Buffy would be graduating.  She need a job and needed one fast.  She found a place called GHR and it was hiring.  She called and they took her information and said they would call back.
Buffy went to school the next day, ready to take on the world.  After her fight with Joyce, she did not care about a thing.  She was sitting at lunch with Willow when her cell phone went off.  It was Riley, he told her to be at her house in 15 minutes he need to see her.  Scared she would be caught by her mom, she still had to do it.  Pulling in to her drive, Riley pulled right in behind her.  Walking up to her he pulled her in to the house and up the stairs. 
Throwing her in to her bedroom, he closed the door and locked it.  He wanted her to fuck him, now and fast.  She refused, he had gone to far and this was not going to happen.  Grabbing her hair he jerked her to the bed, where he pulled at her pants.  Dropping them to the floor he pushed her on to the bed.  Once his pants where off he was on her in a second.  Sliding his hard cock in to her, she screamed and tried to kick him off her.  He just kept pushing in to her, finally Buffy just laid there crying as he continued to fuck her.
He finally finished with her and left, as he walked out the door, he yelled back to her, �Now my little whore don�t be going and do anything I would not want you to.�  And Riley left Buffy alone in her room crying.  Getting up Buffy ran to the shower to wash away the flit that was Riley.  She wondered back to her room to get dressed again when she came across Giles�s phone number.  She made up her mind and picked up the phone.  Telling him everything about Riley, he promised her to bring him in.  He was older and Buffy was still a minor, and he was going to take care of this ass hole once and for all.
It took about two weeks before they caught Riley and when they did they found he had been stalking Buffy for some time.  They put him behind bars and Giles just had to tell Buffy the good news.  Pulling up he found Joyce home and not Buffy.  He had to think of a lie to tell her, so that Buffy would not be in trouble.  Telling Joyce just about the stalking was all he did.  Buffy finally came home and he just had to tell her the good news.

*****
�Ok Doug come on him.�  Buffy let the man in to her house.  No matter what happens the rest of the day she was on cloud nine.  Riley was in jail, and Spike was away.  Doug was not about to do any harm to her.  Even if he was dating her mother.  Going in to the kitchen to get ready for dinner, Buffy hear the phone ring, so she answered it.
�Hello, is Miss. Buffy Summers there by chance?�  A man asked.
�This is her, may I ask who�s calling?�
�This is GHR call and we would like to know if you are still wanting to work for us this summer.�   It took Buffy a shocked second to answer the man.
�Of course I would, but school wont be out for another week.  Can I start in a week?� 
�Yes you can, just stop by the office one day before then and fill out some paper work.  It will be nice to have you on bored this summer Miss. Summers.  Thank you and have a good night.�
�Thank you too.�
The next week Buffy stopped by the office and went in.  She saw a woman about two years older then her sitting behind a desk.  A man standing next to her was talking and pointing to the computer showing her what to do.
�Hi my names Buffy Summers and I was told to come down to fill out paper work for the summer.�
�Oh, hello Buffy, I am Wesley, and this is Fred.  You would be looking to find Angel he is just down the hall.�
Wesley put his hand back on top of Fred�s as they went back to work.  *lovers* thought Buffy as she worked her way down the hall.  She stood in the door way to find a tall dark haired man working at his desk.  He turned to see who had come to the door, and it shocked Buffy.  It was the man who had hit her that night, and damn did he look good.
�Come in Buffy I am guessing.�
�Hi�I am�. I am here�. Um to fill�um out paper work.�  She said staring at the great looking man.
�Yes come on in.�  Angel�s eyes looked Buffy up and down, and he cursed at himself.  Why would any girl her age want a man his?  He thought. 
Sitting down Buffy could not take her eyes off him, he could see her looking and gave her the biggest smile.
�So it looks like you and I will be getting really close this summer yeah Buffy.�  Angel said.
Angel pointed to a chair in his office and asked her to take a seat.  She sat down still looking him up and down.  Angel was by far the hottest person she had ever seen. 
�So Miss. Summers, well as you should know I am not the only boss here, if fact I have some one ahead of me.  Wesley is in charge of most of the new young workers, they do all the work to get take care of the field.  Fred out there is the secretary, she takes care of all the data we collect.  And the person you have yet to see would be Ms. Cordelia Case, she is the head boss.  By the way, stay far away from her, no one really likes her here.  Ok would you like me to show you around?�  Angel asked as he moved to the door.  Standing in the door way, he leaned against the frame and looked over at Buffy.  She had not moved an inch in her seat, just watching him walk is all she did.
Standing up they made there way in to the main office.  He showed her the big seed room, telling her this is were all the data ends up.  Walking through the offices he showed her all the other offices of people she would be working with.  Walking outside he showed her the tractors and other equipment they would be using.  Buffy turned to head back in side when Angel grabbed her arm and walked her to the other side of the building.
�What did you do that for Angel?�  Buffy asked him ripping her arm away from him.  �Shhhhh, quite.�  Angel said.
�What?�  Buffy asked.
�Cordelia just got here. If she sees you today here, she would flip.�  Angel told her as he looked back around the building.
�Why would she flip, she knows you hired me right?  Right, Angel?�  Buffy questioned him.
�Yes, but she was not happy about it.  She wanted me to hire a guy, because well Cordelia, is in love with me.  She would think I hired you for your looks, and to fuck you, I mean hell she fired the last secretary because she looked at me wrong.�  Angel told her.
Buffy started being confused, she was finding out that the main boss here was missing her marbles and was crazy.  Angel swung around covering Buffy in his arms and picked her up off the ground.  Walking to the back of the building he set her down, turned around to see Cordelia walking over to him.  Angel pushed Buffy, she took it as to run around and go inside.  Going around she went back in to his office and sat down at his desk.
Outside, Angel was trying to keep Cordelia off him.  He kept pushing her away, as he put her hands on his chest.  �Cordelia, man I told you a hundred times, I am not interested in you, and no I don�t want a relationship with you.�  Angel said as he headed back inside to make sure Buffy was ok.  Walking in to his office he found her sitting at his desk looking at the photos in his desk.  She was looking all around his desk, being very noise.  He smiled, thinking that Buffy was almost perfect in every way.  Walking over to her his head started thinking of just what do about Cordelia. 
�Buffy, can I ask you something?�  Angel said scaring her. 
Turning around like lightening Buffy dropped the frame she was holding.  It went to the floor crashing.  �Oh my god, Angel I am so so very sorry.  I will do anything to replace it.  I don�t know what got in to me, I am sorry I was looking through your desk��  Buffy rambled on.
�Buffy its ok, I am kind of glad you broke it, it was a gift from Cordy.  But can I ask you something?� 
�Sure what�s up boss?�  Buffy asked. 
His eyes focused right on hers and for a second Angel was on cloud nine, and was not about to leave. 
�Would you like to talk about the job over dinner tonight?  I mean if you�re not busy and if you don�t mind going out with an old guy like me that is.�  Angel said turning away, he was shocked he had asked her something like that, but had so wanted to.
�Sure, what time.�  Buffy said.
�I mean I know you most likely have plans and all, but it would mean a lot to get to know you better.�  Angel started rambling on.
�Angel, I said yes.�  Buffy said standing up.  �What time?�
�Oh, sorry, how about 7?  I can pick you up at your house, if you like?�  He said smiling now from ear to ear.
�That�s just fine with me.  See you at 7pm then.�  Buffy said writing down her address and phone number and handing it to Angel.  She smiled as she walked out of his office and down the hall.  Standing at the end of the hall was a woman about Buffy�s height, black hair, and wearing some very slutly outfit. 
�Just who the hell are you?�  Cordelia asked as she put her hands on her hips.
�I am Buffy, Angel�s new assistant.�  Buffy said as she made her way to the door.
�Oh.  I don�t fucking think so, he would not hire a little whore like you.  If I see you on the grounds once more I will call the cops.�   Cordelia said as she moved to let Buffy pass.
�Oh you will be seeing me a lot, you hired me don�t you remember.�  Buffy said walking out the door.


*7:00pm that night*
Buffy was up stairs getting changed, when the knock came at the door.  Running down the stairs to answer it she was a bit too late.  Mommy dearest had beaten her to the door.  She saw Angel standing there and smiled. 
�How can I help you tonight sir?�  Joyce asked.
�I am here to see Buffy, my names Angel I am working with Buffy this summer.�  Angel put out his hand to shake.  Joyce smiled and took it.
�Oh come on in, so what are you two going to do tonight?�  Joyce asked prying in to her daughters life some more.
�Well we are going to go out to dinner at this pizza place I love, then I figured I would dropper her back off here afterwards.  If you don�t mind?�  Angel asked.
�Well I guess that would be all right.  Let me go see if Buffy is ready then.�  Joyce said walking up the stairs, but Buffy had snuck in to the living room by then and went up behind Angel hugging him from behind. 
�Oh, my, god Buff you scared me.� 
�Sorry Angel, ready to go?� 
�Yeah.�
Buffy yelled up stairs to her mom that she was leaving and walked arm in arm out the door with Angel.  Willow started coming up the walk way as, Buffy and Angel were going down it.  Buffy saw her and ran up to her giving her the biggest hug in the world.  Willow and Buffy let each other go to breath.
�Hey what are you doing here Willow I thought you had to baby-sit tonight?  What are you doing her now?�  Buffy asked as she pulled Willow back on the porch.
Angel followed the two girls up the stairs. Sitting on the steps as the two were talking, he watched Buffy as her smile kept on growing.  Willow was the girls name, Angel had remembered that, and she must be by the way the girls were acting Buffy�s best friend.  
�So, yeah Buffy well I went to the writing class you told me to, and I meet this most perfect guy there.  His name is Oz, and he is so smart.  Buffy he is in a band too.  God I wish I could talk to him.�
Buffy and Willow talked for about 10 minutes before Willow decided she was going to talk to Oz the next day.  She walked down the steps, and past Angel, seeing the man sitting there Willow turned around in shock.
�Have you been there the whole time?�
�Yeah I have, my names Angel, I am Buffy�s new boss/friend.�  Angel stuck out his hand for Willow.
�Nice to meet you Angel, sorry I took up so much of Buffy�s time, I just had to tell her my news.� 
�Its ok, Willow, would you care to join us for dinner tonight.� 
Buffy was standing behind Angel at the time shaking her head no, she wanted Angel all to her self to night.  �Sorry Angel, but have to do some things on my own, but maybe some other time.�  Willow said as she skipped down the walkway and back to her house.
�Sorry about that Angel, my life is well full of surprise like that.�  Buffy said as the two continued down the walk to Angel�s truck.   Smiling as Buffy could remember the night that truck had hit her.  Angel opened the door, and walked around behind.  Stopping for a second to stair up Buffy�s drive way.  He saw the green truck that sat in the drive.
Sliding in to the driver side, he started the engine and drove down the road.  Not saying anything he loved over at Buffy, it hit him.  He had seen her before.  It was her, that ran the red light, that night.  The night that had changed his life.

They pulled always from Buffy�s house, Angel was almost silent.  Choosing to keep his mouth shut about that night.  Angel drove Buffy to one of the nicest restaurants in the city.  The sunset was a place only the rich people went to, so when he  pulled in Buffy could not believe her eyes.  Getting out he went around to open her door.  Buffy had grow on him.  How or why he had yet to figure out.  Walking in with Buffy next to him was the best thing in his life, and he knew that tonight was going to be very special.
Buffy and Angel had a wonderful dinner, talking about their likes, and everything.  Taking her home she sat next to him.  Putting his arm around her, he looked over at Buffy.
�So does this mean we are a thing now?� 
Buffy reached up and kissed his cheek.
�I hope that was a yes, because it sure as hell felt like it.�  Angel said pulling in to Buffy�s drive way.  �So it will have to wait two more weeks before we can spend a lot of time together?�  Angel asked her.
�Well for sure in two weeks you will see me, but before will just have to be a surprise.�  Buffy put her lips to Angel�s and never wanted to let him go.  But they both knew it was only the start.  She got out and walked to the front porch, waving good bye she went inside.
Joyce was waiting for her in the living room.
�Just where have you been young lady?  It�s a half past ten and way past your bedtime.�  Joyce started yelling at her.
�Mom, I went out with Angel remember you saw me leave.   And my bedtime has not been before ten pm in a long time.�
�Oh ok, that�s right.  Did you have a good time tonight, honey?�
�Yes mom, goodnight.�
Going upstairs Buffy knew she had a great time, but she would just have to wait until tomorrow before she was able to tell any one.

~~~~~~
Next Day

Willow always comes to school half way after first period.  She had a free hour, and Buffy was the librarians aid first period so they could always talk.  So Buffy had to wait a bit longer to tell Willow the good news.  In the mean time she decided to check her email.
Opening her account Buffy saw three names, she thought were in her past.
*Spike [email protected]  Hey Girl
*Riley [email protected]  To bad girl
*Giles [email protected]  Bad News
Buffy sat back in her seat what one to red first.  She opened Giles almost knowing what it would be saying.

*********
Dear Buffy,
Honey sorry about this but Riley just got on a technicality.  He will most likely be in touch with you.  Word you must Obey  SAY AWAY!!
Please Buffy.  You will be safer that way.  Good luck.  Stay in touch.
     Giles
P.S. If you need me call.
******

Reading his letters still sent chills through Buffy�s spine.   She knew what Riley wanted and knew he would be after her for it.  Next she opened Spikes letter.
 
*******
Dear Buffy,
Its been a while.  Hope you are doing good.  Well I am almost done with my training two months early.  Yeah!!!.  Well I was thinking the other night about you.  What about us?  I was hopping we can try again soon.  Well your mom told me that you are having an open house in three weeks. See you soon.
     Spike
****
Shit. Shit. Shit.  Buffy knew he was going to come for the open house.  Oh well Angel will be there to protect her.  One email left to check.  Just looking at the name made Buffy sick to her stomach.

*****
Buffy,
Well I got off.  I am not talking to you, but I cant help it.  Your driving me nuts with need for you.  I want to see you so bad.  If there is any way please.  I will be around.  See you soon.
     Love,
          Riley

****
Buffy sat in shock.  Not believing it.  Riley did not really threaten her in any way.  So what to do was no on Buffy�s mind.  Willow had come in flowed by a shorter boy.  He had Willow�s hand; this told Buffy he must be Ox.  Willow flashed Buffy a huge smile as they made their way to sit down next to Buffy.  Willow saw Buffy�s face and knew right away something was not right.
After reading the emails and listening to Buffy�s night with Angel.  Willow did not know what to do.  They all knew Angel was the guy for Buffy.  But how to make Spike and Riley understand that?
�Talk to Angel about it.�  Oz suggested.
Buffy nodded and the day went on.  She went over to GHR�s office to see Angel after school.  His truck was there but so was another car.  Walking in she saw Angel making copies in the front office.  Angel saw her and smiled, but his smile quickly faded away.
Coredila had come out of her office.  Sticking her nose up at Buffy, she handed more paper work to Angel.    Giving Buffy a look she went back in to her office and back to work.
�Angel can I talk to you?�  Buffy asked.
�Sure lets go in to my office.  I have something to show you too.�
Closing the door behind him, he pointed to a new desk that had been brought in.
�Its for you.   So, what did you need to tell me?�
Sitting down at her desk, putting her head in her hands she sighted.  Looking down at her Angel put his hands on her head, and started to run his fingers through her hair.  She started to cry, so he got on his knees to hold her.
�Angel I have a problem.  Along time ago, I was dating this guy.  Then it was another guy after that one.  Well it was just my luck that the two men I dated were bad, I mean really mean.  Well I got them out of my life for a short time.  Now they are back and I don�t know what to do, I mean I don�t know how to deal with it.�
Angel sat there confused about what Buffy had wanted.
�Honey, I can�t help you unless you tell me what you want.�  Angel said hugging her just a little tighter.
�What I want is you.  And only you in my life.�  Buffy told him.



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NEXT WEEK
Standing on the stage, Buffy finally smiled.  She was happy.  Her life had been through the ringer this past year.  The problems through out her senior year caused Buffy a lot of pain, but the one good thing to come out of that year was Angel.  Willow, Oz, Angel, and Joyce sat in the crowed and cheered her on.  She smiled so bright when she got her diploma. 
After the ceremony Angel took Buffy hone while her mom went out on a date.  So Angel decided to make Buffy dinner and invited over his sister, her date, Willow and Oz.  He told Buffy that a young girl named Faith and her new guy would be at the house any minutes.  So he went in to the kitchen to start cooking up dinner.
The door bell rang it was Willow and Oz.  Coming in they all sat in the living room with Buffy and started talking.  The bell rang again and Buffy went to answer it.  Opening the door there stood a medium height black haired girl.
�Faith if I am not mistaken.  Come in.�
�Hey ya its me.  You must be Buffy, all Angel ever does any more is talk about you.  Buffy this and Buffy that.  Nice to finally put a face to the name.  By the way this is my boyfriend Lindsey.�  The tall blonde hair boy smiled at Buffy putting his hand out for her.  Shaking it, Buffy invited him in and showed Faith and Lindsey to the living room.  Going in to the kitchen to check on Mr. Chef.  She found that at lest he had not made a mess yet.  Angel asked about Faith�s date.
�His name is Lindsey, tall blonde hair handsome.  Seems kind of boring to me.� 
�Oh ok, tell every one dinner is ready.�
Buffy gathered every one in the dinning room.  Angel carried in a big bowl of past when he caught site of someone.  The guy sitting next to Faith with his arm around his sister looked to familiar.  Lindsey looked up at Angel and let out a gasp.
�He�s your brother Faith?�
�Angel, Lindsey.  Lindsey, Angel.� 
�We have met before.  Right, Angel?  Still got that temper pal.� 
�Shut the fuck up, you ass hole.  You had it coming to you.  Now if you don�t mind get the fuck out of this house, before I kick your ass AGAIN.�  Angel said.
Buffy sat there watching this play out.  The tears started welling up in her eyes.  Only she could be stuck with the abusive boyfriends.
