Shoelaces, Bunnyfears and New friends in the block
It was eight in the morning. The time when on weekends, only kids were up. Probably watching TV or playing inside but, right now, Anya was on other thoughts.
"Ugh. This isn't working!" Groaned young Anya Jenkins. She hated tying her shoes by her self. Never the less, she was determined to go outside and talk to all of her new neighbors all by her self.
"Why won't you get tied, stupid shoe." She complained as she clumsily fumbled around with her tiny fingers.
She did the hole and twirled, but nothing happened. The shoelaces just hanged there. "Dammit." She cursed as her brother once had done. But no one could hear her now.
She sighed and grabbed her Mommy's high heels. Grinning, she opened the door and walked out.
"Hmmm, where could I go first? Ooh there are some kids!" She giggled at the children playing at the other side of the road.
I hope there won't be any big kids there, she thought as she sneakily walked towards the fence. Stopping she gasped in fear. Before her, there was a huge road. And she knew about roads. There could come cars any time, and they didn't always see tiny children running around. Putting on her sunglasses that she had been holding in her left hand the entire time,(Even when trying to tie her shoes) she ducked a little bit. "I am Bond, Anya Bond. And this is.. mission impossible." She felt like a super agent, quoting her elder brothers movies,wearing high heels and pink hello kitty sunglasses.
Slowly, she turned her head left. Then right, and then left again. No cars in sight. Good.
She hurried over the road as fast as her little three and a half year old legs could carry her and didn't even look up as she ran into something hard. Maybe a tree?
No. Tree's didn't wear clothes and look like a regular kid. "Uh.. I'm sowwy.." Anya whispered, suddenly very shy infront of the cute boy. "It's okay. You just moved in, right?" The boy asked.
"Yes I did." She said quietly.
"Oh, well over there are Willow, Tara and Buffy. Oh and I'm Xander. What's your name?"
"I'm Anya." The girl smiled. "
That's a really pretty name." Xander responded.
Yes, Anya knew, she was going to like that boy.
"Do you wanna play with us? We're building a zoo in Tara's sandbox!"
The redhead said excitedly. "Ooh okay!" Anya grinned. "Hi, I'm Anya, I'm three and a haf and I just moved here yesterdays." She smiled as she sat in the sandbox and was given a shovel.
"I'm T-Tawa. I'm four years old."
"No you're not Tara! You gotta wait one more week.
Tara rolled her eyes at Buffy's statement. "I'm Buffy. I'm the only one here who actually is four years old."
"And I'm Willow, don't forget me! I'm almost four too. Just.. six more months." The redhead said. Anya grinned, knowing these were going to become good friends of hers. They laughed and built a large pyramid of sand, where the crocodile and lion could live together. Anya was afraid that the lion and crocodile would kill each other, but Willow knew they were best friends and told her. Later, they made a large hole. For Choco the rabbit.
"Uh.. What's a rabbit?"
"You don't know what a rabbit is?" Xander asked, confused. He hurried to a cage or something and grabbed the most horrifying creature Anya had ever seen. Letting out a loud shriek, she jumped ten feet away. "Okay, i have a n-new idea. Choco can live f-far far away from here. On mars?" Tara smiled, seeing her new friends fear.
When the rabbit problem had been solved nearly an hour had passed. "Okay, I think I haves to go now!"
"Why?" They all asked.
"Because my mommy is gonna wake up soon, and I don't want to scare her by being gone!" The small brunette explained.
Her friends agreed and hugged her before waving goodbye.
Anya sneaked up to the road and mission impossibled her way over it once again. She ran up to the door and placed her mothers shoes back where they were in the beginning. Grinning, she turned on the television and watched an episode of Winnie the Pooh before falling asleep on the couch.
Yes, Anya was going to like this neighborhood..
FIN.
