I love the way you write Angel as a creepy lecherous type. In hindsight, it's so much more apparent than when the show began. Really feeling sorry for Spike at this point. Buffy is going with her initial attraction to Angel and will soak up his dismissive remarks about Spike.
I always thought it was creepy. It might have had something to do with the fact that I didn't find the show until I was in my early twenties and I had young daughters of my own. But even the first time they talked to each other what he said came off as creepy and kind of pervy to me. Angel got to her first (Spike so didn't help his case there!) so he gets to make the good impression plus bad mouth Spike. Spike is depressed, pissed off and tired right now and that makes him his own worst enemy!

i sort of really, really, really hate this buffy! why would she believe anything from a stalker rapist? spike has the right idea with giving up on her from the beginning, and maybe giles need to listen to him and do the same.spike, xander, willow and whistler can more than handle things. since he came early to help buffy(who doesn't deserve it) could he go save tara and bring her on board early or something? if he 's going to make someone life better atleast let it be someone who deserves it. maybe giles could get her to come there as an exchange student? idk how but she is a lot more deserving than buffy is of a second chance.
I feel sorry for her. In a very short amount of time she went from a pretty typical teenager who's main worry was what to wear and what boys liked her to having to save the world from monsters. Her parents didn't believe her, she was tossed in a loony bin, mom and dad divorced, she was expelled, had to leave her friends, her school and everything she knew. All of that happened in about 6 months. She hates vampires and slaying it ruined her life as far as she can see.
Now here is Giles telling her that despite what Merrick had told her about her having a destiny she is replaceable. She's upset, confused and kind of pissed. If there were others who could and would take up her slaying duties why did she have to go through all those things to begin with? Why did she even need to be called? Then for Giles to tell her that a vampire is going to take over her duties? That sent her into a tail spin. Leaving with Angel wasn't a conscious decision, she needed to leave to try to figure out what was going on and he went with her. The fact that he was able to put his two cents in before anyone else has given Buffy a really bad first impression of Spike.

Wow, Buffy is a complete moron in this fic. LOL!! She leaves with Angel even after Giles stated he had raped, tortured, and murdered a young girl. Plus the knowledge that Spike hadn't even been with Angel for more than 2 weeks, and she's going to assume anything Angel says is correct? The guy was stalking her, didn't help in LA so she burned down a gym and ended up in a mental institution, and now she's sitting down having coffee. I honestly despise the Buffy in this story and wish she'd fall in love with Spike and he rebuffs her. That is the least she'd deserve.
She's a sixteen year old girl, new to town with no real friends, trying to run from a destiny she doesn't want. So far Angel is the only one who has really tried to be friendly towards her. And like most 16 y/o she is great at hearing only what she wants to hear. Angel has a soul, that must make him a good guy.
Things are coming a little fast for Buffy to process right now. She really doesn't want to be the slayer, but the idea that she could be replaced so easily is off putting. One vamp introduced himself to her (granted he left some stuff out!) the other doesn't want to be in the same room with her. She knows nothing about Spike and his soul so she has to choose who to trust and right now Angel wins.
Don't hate her, feel sorry for her, she is a young girl who is overwhelmed right now and doesn't know where to turn.

Silly, silly girl, I know she's young, but she sounds like a fool. She needs to see what Spike and the Scoobs have been doing while she's been sat on her arse. Super update.
She was kind of self involved but then what teenager isn't? From Buffy's point of view slaying has ruined her life. She was tossed into a mental institution, her parents divorced, she was kicked out of school and had to move from LA to a crappy little town where they want her to slay again. She's not having any of it right now.
