Xander stood in front of Willow's bathroom mirror. It was freaky to see Buffy's face staring back at him. He stuck his tongue out at his reflection. It looked cute. His face broke into a grin. Now that really was freaky. Mind you, he thought, my smile does look kinda fine on this beautiful face.
He turned away from the mirror and tucked Buffy's hair behind his ears. Oh well. He took a deep breath. In ten minutes he'd be facing Cordelia. She would be mightily pissed. He wondered whether he could do all those Buffy acrobatics. He hoped so. He'd need them to get away from Cordelia.
There was a bang on the door.
"What?" he yelled.
"Will you hurry up in there," came Xander's voice, it was Buffy. "I've got to do your make-up."
"Oh. . . why?"
Buffy made an exasperated noise. "You are not taking my body to school, without any make-up on. Do you know how rough you look."
"Oh gee, thanks." Xander opened the door and peered round.
"You know what?" he said. "You've upset me. I always thought your beauty was natural. Now I know different and something has died in my heart. Oh, the humanity of it all." He ended in a mock wail. Buffy just stared at him, one eyebrow raised.
"That was a compliment, you know." Xander said, defensively.
"Come on, we don't have time this morning to be messing around." She grabbed Xander's hand and pulled him out the bathroom and back into Willow's room.
It was more difficult to get Xander ready than she thought.
"Don't put that thing anywhere near my eye!" he squealed when she advanced on him with a tube of mascara. It had been difficult enough to get eyeshadow, foundation, and power onto him. He hated the feel of all this stuff against his skin.
"Look," said Buffy. "We girls do this everyday. I will not get mascara in your eye if you STAY still."
"Ok." said Xander in a small voice. He braced himself, and discovered it was not that bad after all. It didn't hurt, it just felt gloopy. "Why do you girls go through this every day?" he asked.
"Because we want to look beautiful for you." Buffy said very sweetly.
"Oh, right then."
Willow looked at her bedside clock. "Come on we're going to be late."
"Oh, Buffy," said Xander. "I think there's something you ought to know. As you are in my body today, the lovely Cordy will try to kill to, because you did not turn up for your date with her last night. Please," he begged. "Try to avoid her."
"I'll see what I can do." Buffy replied.
