A Short Secret Filled Game.

By: A Wandering Soul

It was a normal day at the Magic Box. If you count not having anything to slay or any apocalypses that were about to destroy the world normal. In fact the inside of this wonderful establishment was filled with chaos.

"I want to know what is going on! Why is the town so quiet? Is something about to happen?" Everyone turned there attentions, except Dawn who was doing her homework and Xander who was helping her on it, to Spike. "Don't look at me. I don't know anything." That seemed to turn the heat off of the vampire but the questions still rang out. "OK shut it!" Xander yelled before focusing on Dawn once more.

"I'm sorry Dawn, where were we at?"

"um… Question 23) '84 is the sum of 24y divided by 12 minus 8.What is y?' Can you help me?"

"OK first we need to write it out as a problem. 84 24y (12 - 8), what is y? First what ever you do to one side you do to the other. What should we start with?"

"um the parenthesis?"

"Yes. The answer is?"

"Well 12 - 8 is 4. So it would end up being 84 equals 24y divided by 4. Then I times 4 to both sides." She paused to do just that. "336. Then I divide both sides by 24," another pause, "Getting 14 y. Is that right?" Xander took her paper and nodded. "Yes that's right!"

"Yes!" Dawn yelled. The two continued to finish her homework before she had to go.

Buffy watched the whole thing. Her curiosity was becoming to much and she wanted to know just what she had been missing in her best friend's life. "I have an idea since nothing is going on in town. Lets play 'I Never'." As she said this she pulled out a bottle of whiskey from Giles' stash and shot glasses for everyone, even Spike. She set up the game and sighed. "So who goes first?" Xander gave a wicked smirk, he knew to much about his girls and had a wicked secret on Spike. He decided he was going to be nice for know. "I never… Ran over the Sunnyhell sign." Willow chuckled lightly and took a sip along with most at the table. Spike downed his whole shot though. "I n-never ran away from home." Tara mumbled out. She bowed her head as Buffy and Giles took drinks. It was Willow's turn next and Xander had yet to drink. She thought she would take pity on him so she said, "I never ate a whole box of Twinkies by myself." No one took a drink and where all surprised to see not even Xander had taken a drink. Willow raised her eyebrows at him as did everyone else. "What! I never have eaten a whole box by myself." "Why is that?" "Because my dad ate some not to mention Jesse ate most of them because…" He trailed off and looked down at the table. Giles quickly spoke his I never at this point. "I never had a thing for a vampire." No surprise Buffy and Spike drank but when Xander took a sip the girls were all over him. Finally he just yelled, "Trust me you don't want to know!"

With that they backed off. It was Spike's turn and he was taking his time thinking. "I never shagged a vampire." No surprise he took a drink as did Buffy. Xander on the other hand drank as well and before the questions could start spoke. "I never died my hair." Buffy, Spike, Tara and Willow all took a drink. Tara, who was upset by being ousted that she died her hair, spoke with convection. "I never stripped for a room full of vampires and demons! Male vampires and demons!." Xander took a shot and glared at Tara. "That was a secret you cheap whore."

"I don't care you inane slut." The game went on for a few more moments before Buffy spoke, "I never kept things from my friends." Here Xander looked ashamed as he downed his full shot glass. "I never slept with a guy." Tara said as she blushed. Willow, Buffy, and Spike took a drink. As did Giles and Xander. Buffy was shocked as she looked at the two. Said two men shared a look and Xander winked. "What was that?!" Buffy yelled. "I think you are going to have to come clean Xan."

"I suppose your right G. I just hoped it was not know. How is Ahn by the way?"

"Her feet are swelling up nicely." They both laughed. Xander turned back to their audience. "Well Tara is the only one that knows but in Oxnard I was a stripper. Long story short a guy got sick and I had to dance. Now the 'shagged' vampire thing, well Angel is VERY persuasive when he has no soul and you remember when our doubles from that alternate dimension showed up?" At there nods he continued to speak. "Unlike Willow I fell victim to my flirting." There were gasps and Willow shouted "Xander you didn't!" "Well I did." He responded with a smirk that held secrets. "Now that whole guy thing. I was in Oxnard about 4 weeks before I ran into Oz. I told him I had liked him for awhile and one thing led to another." Here he cut off at the looks he was getting. "What? Anyways on graduation Larry finally cornered me and I thought 'what the hell the earth might be destroyed so…' and then when I was 16 I had this thing with Jesse. His way of telling me was by making suggestions with Twinkies. I have never bought another box after he died. To many memories. After I got back from Oxnard I got a bit tipsy with Giles and well when he gets drunk Ripper likes to play… You might not want to know how THAT turned out." This time Ripper showed through as Xander and him shared a smirk. The girls were going crazy spouting 'why didn't you tell me?' Willow was so upset she refused to talk. "I'm sorry guys I never meant for you to find out this way. It just happened." Xander stood up and walked towards the door. "I need to get home I work in the morning." Spike stood and followed him without a backwards glance.

After the two made it to Xander's apartment Spike slammed him against the wall. "Why don't you show me what Peaches and Ripper did to you love? Maybe some of those dance moves you learned?" Xander hummed and led the vampire to his room. "I guess I have more to add to 'I Never'. He chuckled as the bedroom door was closed.
