LA - Buffy

Title: LA
Prompt: Before (from [community profile] still_grrr )
Characters: Buffy
Timeline: Becoming

Buffy scribbles down a note to her mother. Writing down her emotions isn’t second nature to her but talking about them hasn’t been either. But, she knows that her mom doesn’t want her around, her dad didn’t and he didn’t even know the truth.

She gets onto the bus, the driver narrows his eyes at her. She sees it on his face, that she’s just another girl running away, or trying to become a somebody in a city that will engulf her. “You ever been to LA before?”

“No.” She might as well starting lying before she gets to LA.

I like how you take us from Buffy's inability to talk about her emotions to her decision to start lying in this.

Very well done.
