We Meet Again

She saw him, standing in the corner, with his usual charm. She had always had a thing for him. Even back before the spell she did for him and Cordelia backfired. She had always loved him. Thats why she wanted to help him.

He saw her, across the room. He never knew she was so beautiful. He knew she was a witch, he didnt care. She was beautiful. He watched her watch everyone else. He wondered if she even saw him.

He slowly walked across the room, in her direction. She watched him. He watched her. They both wanted to talk. There was so much to talk about. After the Mayors ascension and after Willow finally turned Amy back into herself, there was much to talk about. All the surviving students of the graduating class were talking about their battles, from the Mayors ascension to marriage to divorce.

She got nervous, her face turned red as Xander approached. She looked and Xander and said, Hi. Xanders face turned red with excitement. He didnt say anything, but Amy knew what he was thinking. Amy said, Yes, I have been fine since being de-ratted. Amy smiled. Xander smiled back. Xander finally got enough courage to speak.

Hi, Amyum, so, boyfriend? Husband? Xander asked nervously.

None of the above Amy said, with a smile.

Oh, Im sorry. Xander didnt know whether to frown or smile.

Dont be sorry. All the men I date are jerks. Amy replied.

Xander slowly eased his way beside Amy. Amy laughed a little. Xander knew that he was nervous. He didnt know why he was so nervous. She was just Amy. Good little witch, good student, psycho mom Amy.

Xander looked at Amy, You want to get out of here? he asked, in hopes she would say yes.

Definitely! This is so lame! Amy replied, excited.

Amy and Xander walked to Xanders car. Amy had teleported to Sunnydale. It was so much easier. Xander had thought that might cause somewhat of a scene if they just teleported out of there. Amy had still been seeing Rack, and getting more powerful magick.

Amy got into Xanders car and put her seatbelt on. Xander looked at her and smiled, saying, Safety first. They both laughed.

Xander stopped in front of a fancy French restaurant. He didnt know the name and there was no way he could pronounce it. Xander looked at Amy, smiling. Amy seemed to like the restaurant. They walked inside.

Inside the restaurant, the hosts seated Amy first, and Xander second. Xander looked at the menu, it was all in French. Xander panicked. Xander got embarrassed and started to blush. He quietly asked Amy, Amy, psst, do you know French? I dontand the menu is in French. Amy giggled, waved a hand over the menu and then said, Now can you read it? Xander looked at his menu and laughed. It was now translated into English. He whispered, Thank you.

The waiter came up to their table and said, May I take your order? Amy ordered some Duck and Xander order Snails and Duck. They ate and talked and ate.

As they finished, the waiter came to the table and placed the bill down. Xander took a look at it and gasped. The bill was 65 dollars. He looked at Amy and took the bill in his hands, gulped hard and said, Its expensive. Amy giggled and said, How much? Xander gulped again and said, 65 dollars. Amy laughed and took out of her purse 65 dollars and handed it to Xander.

Here ya go. Amy laughed.

No, no, thats um, ok. Ill, uh, get it. Xander said nervously, knowing that he didnt have more than 40 dollars in his wallet.

Xander, you dont have that much money. I know that. Take my money and pay the bill. Amy said, winking at Xander.

Xander reluctantly took the money and paid the bill. He then took Amys hand and walked out the door to Xanders car. Amy sat down in Xanders car and looked at the gas gauge. She noticed it was near empty and she flicked her finger at the gas gauge and it went back up to full. She thought, Xander must really be low on cash. Xander sat down and started the car.

They drove to Xanders house and went inside. Amy looked at Xander, reluctantly saying, I have nowhere to stay. I hate to ask this of you, but may I stay with you? Xander had the look of utter joy on his face when he replied, Of course, you can stay here anytime you like. Amy giggled and said, Thank you.

That night, Amy and Xander were getting ready to go to bed. Xander didnt have an extra bed so he had volunteered to sleep on the couch, in the living room. Xander made his bed on the couch and Amy laid down in Xanders bedroom. Amy quietly got out of bed and crept into the living room. She sat down at Xanders feet and rubbed his arm until he woke up.

Amy?? Xander said groggily.

Yeah, its me. Amy said sweetly.

What are you doing? Xander said, starting to wake up.

I just wanted to, um, be with you. Tonight. Amy said quietly.

Oh, ok.. Xander said, turning over.

Xander..Wait, will you come lay down with me? Amy said.

Xander bolted up in bed and said, What?

Will you come lay down with me. In your bed?

Um, ok. Xander smiled.

Amy stood up, and then Xander stood up. They walked back to Xanders room and Amy laid down in bed and Xander quietly shut the door.
