This story takes place in March 1999.
Willow sat down on a bench afterschool and quietly waited for Buffy.
Someone then whizzed right past down the steps on a skateboard and crashed at the bottom.
" Ow..." the person moaned.
" Xander, are you OK?" Willow asked, rushing to his side.
" Yes, I'm fine." he reassured, and slowly got up, and promptly fell foward.
" Whoa ! " Willow grabbed his arm."Here, lean on me."
" I always do." Xander teased.
" Here, let's sit on the bench." Willow suggested, leading him towards it." What were you DOING anyway?"
" Skateboarding." Xander replied, with a tone of voice that seemed to ask why she was so suprised about that.
Willow heard it, and replied : " It's just that you havn't skateboarded since..."
"...sophmore year." said Xander, finishing the sentence for her.
" What made you wanna skateboard?" asked Willow, curious.
" I was thinking everything was so simple then...maybe it was a way I could reclaim that simpleness...look at me, therapy boy." Xander told.
Willow giggled." It's amazing how much has changed in only two years, huh?"
" I know, right?" Xander agreed." I mean, who would've guessed we'd discover the exsistence of vampires..."
"...the exsistence of a Vampire Slayer..."
"...and her Watcher..."
"...and that she'd have a vampire boyfriend..."
"...I KNEW he'd go bad..."
"...sheesh Xander . Or that she'd have to send him to hell..."
" ...and that he would unfortunately - "
" Xander ! "
" - come back..."
"...and that I would restore the vampire's soul and start to take up witchcraft."
" Who wouldv'e guessed you'd be dating a boy who was a beast in a band?"
" I wouldn've guessed you'd be date the meanest girl in school."
" I don't think SHE wouldv'e guessed it, that's for sure."
Both went on for at least 15 minutes.
Eventually, Buffy came along." Hey guys." she said cheerily." Whatchya doing?"
Xander and Willow exchanged a look.
Xander responded." How things never change in Sunnydale." and in agreement, Willow nodded her head
