Twill pulled her sunglasses up on top of her hair and took a quick look around at the Sunnydale Galaria. So far, it had been crowded with people she was absolutely positive she did not want to meet. Where's Kels and Daniel? she wondered. They were supposed to meet me here 20 minutes ago.

Daniel spotted Twill searching through the crowd. He heaved a sigh. It was good to see her again. He walked up and tapped her on the shoulder.

Twill started. Then she remembered why she came and turned around. "Hey Kel..." the words died on her lips as she realized who it was. "Daniel. Hey." she was suddenly nervous. She tucked a dark curl behind her ear. "Long time no see. Where's Kelsey?"

"I actually didn't get a chance to see her. I swung over here as soon as I could get off work. I thought she'd be here by now." He couldn't help the crestfallen look on his face. He was secretly hoping that Twill would be happy to see him again.

Twill smiled. "Well, we might be waiting a while. She might be at cheerleading."

Daniel nodded. "Quite right. Since we might be waiting here a while, can I buy you a soda?"

Twill was about to politely refuse when she felt her throat dry up. "If it's not too much trouble, I'd love a drink." She didn't want Daniel spending important money on her.

"Trouble? You and Kels have been like sisters since... well, you know." He smiled awkwardly. "What do you want? Coke? Sprite? Rootbeer?"

"I'll take a coke," Twill replied. She sighed as Daniel pulled some money out of his wallet, then quickly looked at her feet.

Daniel counted through his stash of dollars. "One coke coming right up." He turned and walked to the McDonalds. There was an Indian guy working the counter today. "Hi, I'll take a medium soda." The guy gave Daniel a cup and took the cash, giving Daniel his change. Daniel filled it up and brought it back over to Twill. "Enjoy," he said, giving her a smile.

Twill smiled gratefully and took the coke out of his hands. She took a sip through her straw, then let it drop to her side, being careful to keep it upright. "So how's the job these days?" she asked, trying to start an adult conversation.

"Oh, you know. Business as usual. I get to read a lot of books, which is good. I'm hoping it'll inspire Kelsey to read a little more, but she's short on free time. You will not believe how busy being a book editor will make you."

Twill gulped down some more soda. "Read any interesting books lately? I want to start making a summer reading list so I have something to do during the day. Other than train with Kelsey, of course."

Daniel chuckled. "Not recently, no. But I'm going to a book signing Friday night. I might be able to pick you up a copy. It's a novel about the Medieval times, I know how much you're into all the torture devices and what-not."

"Yes, the one thing that makes me different from other girls, I know." Twill blushed. "Don't forget to get it signed first."
