"I swear to God Xander I made a vow that once I got this whole soul I would not hurt another human but you make is so difficult to keep that vow."

Buffy stepped between Angel and Xander. This nights patrol had been particularly rough on Angel. "Angel let's just take a minute and breathe."

Xander just laughed at the irony. "I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for him to you know breathe"

She glared at him "Xander."

Xander just put his hands up "I'm backing off."

Angel took off his black leather jacket and started inspecting it. The thing was caked in what looked like a combination of blood and mud. "It's ruined. I mean I'm never going to be able to get this out."

Xander looked at his shrugging. "How was I supposed to know that thing was going to pop like a balloon once I stabbed it."

Angel tossed the coat to the ground angry. "That was Italian leather. Do you know how much that was worth?"

Xander laughed at the hissy fit he was having. "Are you going to tell me you don't have a closet filled with like 12 more of those? Angel you dress like a cartoon character. I mean your George Jetson or Fred Flintstone maybe Shaggy. You have like one outfit that you wear constantly. It's always black or gray with you."

Angel balled up his fist trying to control his anger. "I dress like a cartoon character? I swear to God Bozo the Clown has more fashion sense than you."

Buffy had enough she put a hand on both of their chest pushing them apart and knocking them to the ground. "ENOUGH!" She took a breath "I am sick and tired of this. The whole you two constantly at each other throat. I swear to God if you two were gay I'd call it sexual tension. I'd tell you to just fuck and get it out your system."

Xander pulled himself up. "Yeah trust me there is tension but it ain't sexual."

She looked at Xander. "I am going home. I don't want either of you fallowing me."

Angel cocked his head looking at Buffy. "But I usually walk you home and you know kiss you good night."

"Yeah well I'm not in a kissing mood right now." She picked up the last sword from the ground and heaved it in to the bag. She lunged the weapon bag over her shoulder. "If either of you get the ide of following me home I swear I'll kill you where you stand."

Angel waited till she was gone and picked right up where he left off. "Are you happy now?"

"You know I didn't plan any of this but seeing you covered in the blood and mud with Buffy just as pissed at you as she is at me. I'm going to mark this night down for a W."

Angel closed his eyes and tried to find his calm but Xander was tap dancing on his last nerve. "You know I get why this started 3 years ago. You wanted Buffy. She chose me but come on man."

Xander shook his head and laughed. "Oh my God. I have a girl friend. Cordeila Chase is pretty much everything you could ask for."

"Than WHY? Why do you always have to battle me every step of the way."

"Angel you want to make this complicated and look for some deeper meaning or understanding. Why we don't get along? It doesn't' have anything to do with jealousy. I just don't like you. I don't trust you and I think you are trouble. "

"Yeah well trust me I don't like you either. You know what I want. You know what I really really want. I wish we could switch places for one month so you could see what a tremendous ass you truly are."

D"hoffryn the Lord of all Vengeance Demon had been watching from across the cemetery. He had been scouting Sunnydale and knew good things were go come but he couldn't have asked for better than this.

"DONE" A bolt of lightening came from the sky striking between Xander and Angel. The force sent them flying back and almost knocked them out. There ears were ringing from the boom and they laid on there back not sure what the hell just happened.

Angel looked at the night sky. "What the hell was" He coughed clearing his throat. He froze immediately in place. He hadn't coughed in over 200 years. He opened his eyes and looked around "What the fuck is going on?"

Xander pulled himself up "Was that lightening?"

That is when Angel saw it. He was looking across at his own body The voice that came out was his voice but it wasn't him. "What is going on?" As he spoke recognized the voice coming from his mouth. It was Xander's voice.

Xander looked over seeing his own body and knew it was Angel's voice coming out when he spoke. That is when he saw Angel standing there in his body. "What the hell did you do?"

Angel popped up and stepped to Xander. " I didn't do anything."

Just than they heard some twigs snapping behind them. D'Hoffryn stepped out from behind the tree. "I think I can offer you the insight you are looking for."

Angel tightened up defensively not sure what was going on. Xander did the same suspicious of who this demon was. Xander was the first to speak. "Who are you?"

He stepped closer looking him over. "The name is D'Hoffryn"

Angel let a deep sigh. "Oh shit'

The smirk spread across D'Hoffryn's lips. "So you've heard of me?" He stepped to Angel this time looking him up and down in Xander's body. "Well if it makes a difference I've heard of you as well."

Xander stepped between them. ""Look maybe you two can grab a tea or something later and catch up. But for now"

D'Hoffryn shook his head. "Patience is a virtue."

Angel interrupted "You did this to us?"

Not answering he just circled the two of them. "You know the Hell Mouth is just over flowing with energy and I have neglected it. I decided it was time to get some of my better Vengeance Demons in place. I was just doing a little recon. Checking out the area if you will."

Angel glared at him. "So you being here is just a coincidence?"

D'Hoffryn just laughed "I do enjoy the way Universe works out. Now the boy I would expect to make a stupid mistake but come now Angel you are 200 years old. Still a baby compared to me but I still expect you to know better."

"What are you talking about?"

D"Hoffryn just laughed. "You used those four delightful letters. W-I-S_H"

Xander rolled back the conversation in his head and it hit him. "You moron. You wished we would switch places."

Angel shook his head. "I didn't mean it. I didn't"

D"Hoffryn rolled his eyes. "Haven't heard that one before."

Xander shook his head "He wished this. I didn't. Is this supposed to be some cosmic lesson? I learn something big. He learns something and we switch back."

D'Hoffryn laughed, "You watch too much television kid. This isn't Freaky Friday. I was passing through and I thought it would be funny to throw a little Chaos out there. You should feel honored. I don't really do this anymore. I have Demons who do it for me but when an opportunity like this hits you up It was too rich to not devour. It should be fattening."

Angel lunged at him. "The charm or totem or amulet give it to me."

A simple push sent Angel flying back. He didn't' have his vampire strength anymore and in Xander's body he was no match, D'Hoffryn stepped over him. "Don't try that again?"

Xander looked at him. "Look I can't live my life as a vampire. I have finals I have to study for."

D'Hoffryn rubbed his temples shaking his head. "As much I would love to find a way to torture the two of you forever even I have rules. Do you remember your wish Angel?"

Angel closed his eyes trying to remember "I was pissed and said I wish we could switch places fo" His eyes flew open and he pointed "One Month. I said one month."

D"Hoffryn shrugged "Now you are catching on. 31 days you two can figure out how the other half lives."

Xander shook his head. "Wait he said a month. That could be 30 days."

Angel interrupted. "Or 28 if you count February"

D'Hoffryn just laughed his evil laugh, "Sorry but it's 31. You didn't specify which month, Just so we are clear. 31 days under the full moon."

Xander shook his head "Wait I can't do this I am human. I have a life and a girlfri" He was cut off as D'Hoffryn teleported away. Xander fell to his knees yelling "NOOOOO. Don't go."

Angel rolled his eyes. "Stop being so dramatic."

Xander popped up to his feet angry. "This is your fault." With out meaning to Xander put on Angel's vamp face. "I should kill you."

"Yeah well if you kill me your stuck a vampire for the rest of your life. Genius."

Xander shook with rage. "Remember that thing I said. The whole I don't like you. I'm doubling down on that."

Angel rolled his eyes. "Look it's late and we have to figure this out. "

"Figure it out? We are screwed."

"It's a month Xander. I don't want to be you any more than you want to be me but it's a month. But for now I think we should find Buffy."

Xander looked at him still pissed. "Fine. But you know this is completely your fault."

"Will you shut up?"
