Chapter One – Beautiful Stranger

Summer of 1998


It doesn't matter what I want
It doesn't matter what I need
It doesn't matter if I cry

The little blonde walked through the darkened streets of L.A. in deep thought; it's already been a month since she sent her lover to hell and left her friends and family behind. The sky was clear that night not even stars nor the moon illuminated the night. As she walked back to her apartment building after a long evening of waiting tables at ‘The Greasy Grill’ she couldn’t help but wonder what her life would’ve been like if she’d never been called, if she never had Angel. There were so many ifs and what could have been but now was not the time to think of them.

Even though she had left Sunnydale behind that didn’t mean that she left the demonic world behind. The Slayer heard a scream just up ahead and immediately broke out into a dead run. As Buffy rounded the corner her eyes were instantly drawn to the girl cowering off to the side, she soon directed her eyes back to the fight where a man and a vampire were having it out.

The blonde was about to jump into the fray just as said vampire exploded into a cloud of ash. The man turned to face her and she was taken back by the intensity she saw in his eyes. Buffy couldn’t remember the last time she ever saw eyes so blue, even in the low light of the street lamp what she saw there sent shivers up and down her spine.

Sometime during the fight the young girl had run off leaving Buffy and her beautiful stranger alone in a darkened alley way. Deciding to make the first move she approached the man with caution. It was obvious that he knew about the world of vampires and such. She also kept getting funky vibes off of him but it wasn’t an unpleasant feeling so she let it go.

"So it’s obvious that you knew what that thing was, I mean since you were able to kill it and all. So now the question is…who are you?"

The Slayers’ stranger just smiled at her before taking another step toward her to close the gap between them and when he spoke she was pleasantly surprised to hear an Irish brogue accompany his words.

"Well lass, me name is Allan Francis Doyle but most just call me Doyle" he said with a small smile on his face.

Buffy found her herself warming to him immediately. She couldn’t explain it but from the moment she saw him she felt connected to him. There was a loud crash behind her, startled she turned around to discover it was only a cat that had knocked over a garbage can. When she turned back again she was disappointed to find her mystery man had already gone.

Even though he did leave without so much as a goodbye Buffy found herself walking on, though alone with a much lighter heart. All she could hope to do was to catch a glimpse of her beautiful stranger again sometime.


Don't matter if I bleed
You've been on a road
Don't know where it goes or where it leads
