The Sadie Hawkins Dance
By LadyOfTheFieryMoonlight
Thank you everybody who reviewed the Zutara story, you guys ROCK!
Heehee, this is what I think shoulda happened in season 2 of Buffy with Willow and Xander lol ^_^
Sorry it's short but I kinda wrote a spur-of-the-moment sorta thing and I am working on Ice and Fire right now! ZUTARA 4EVER!
"Will you go to the dance with me? No no no, that sounds too needy," said an exasperated Willow Rosenberg into her bedroom mirror. She had been practicing all night to ask out Xander Harris to the Sadie Hawkins Dance. She wanted it to be the perfect night, so she wanted her perfect man. She wanted to cry. I'll be the laughingstock of the school. No one likes me as it is, even though I'm as nice as I can be to them. She let out a deep and heavy "sigh" and gazed out the window, the moon shining in her hazel eyes. "Will I ever find the courage to ask him?" she said, expressing her thoughts with words as if someone was in the room with her. She did this quite often, seeing as her best friend Buffy was always on patrol, defeating her vampire foes with her vampire boyfriend and dance date, Angel. Willow envied their passion greatly. They were the only real couple she knew that did their job together. She often daydreamed that she was a Slayer and Xander was her vampire. And as she was imagining this glorious daydream, she heard a knock...on her window. It was Buffy and Angel, back from patrolling.
"Hey Willow, we saw your light on in your room as we were walking back to my house and I got worried, are you okay?" said Buffy.
"Oh no, I'm fine."
"Okay then. Hey Angel I think I'll walk by myself the rest of the way." And she kissed Angel in the moonlight. Meanwhile, Willow gazed on them, replacing their heads with those of hers and Xander. Then Buffy jumped off the tree branch that she and Angel were standing on and walked home.
"Are you really okay?" asked Angel.
"Yea- well, no," and Willow told Angel everything about how she longed to take Xander to the dance, and of her life-long love for him.
"Well Willow, love is very important, and if you truly love him, then you should tell him how you feel. Well I have to go now, but I just think you should know that I bet he feels the same way too." And then he left, leaving behind a Willow who felt much better.
