still not mine. i wish though
Willow and Trish finished their respective plates and smiled at each other. They could actually hear Edge, Matt, Jeff and Christian screaming at each other in the Lobby. It almost sounded like people were cheering them on.
"My treat." Willow offered. "After all, i am the new kid on the block" Trish nodded and grinned.
"Sounds good to me, kid. How bout we blow this Popsicle stand and skip the work out for today, and get straight to the shopping?" Trish teased with a grin "I'll distract Matt and Christain, while you grab Edge and Jeff. Work for you?" Willow grinned and tugged on her t-shirt.
"I think I can handle that. If your up to your end of the task." She led Trish through the crowd that had gathered around the arguing foursome. As Trish turned on the charm and grabbed the attention of Christian and Matt, Willow grabbed Edge and Jeff by the hair and tugged them backwards into the crowd. She slapped a hand over Edges mouth and elbowed Jeff in the side to shut him up. "Both of you can shut the hell up. You've been at this for two long and Trish and I want to go shopping."
"What about the work out?" Jeff asked, sounding slightly guilty.
"You two put us out of the work out mood. So now we shop." Willow shrugged. "Go change, I have to do the same." She ushered them into the elevator and caught a wink from Trish just before the doors shut. "You two look stressed. Put on something that makes you look good and meet me down stairs in 15 minutes." She hopped out on her floor and ran to her room.
Willow rummaged through her bags until she found a pair of tight black pants, and a red tank top. She pulled them on and ran to the connecting door to her cousins room. Tapping on the door she grinned when Mark pulled it open.
"I'm going shopping. Can I borrow one of your shirts?" She asked, darting around him and running over to his suitcase. She rummaged through it and found a leather vest and threw it on with a grin. "Can I borrow this?" She twirled around and then hugged him and ran back to her room. "Thanks Mark!" She closed the door on marks puzzled face and headed for the hallway, pausing to grab her wallet which she slipped into the inside pocket on the vest. She slipped her room key into the same pocket and ran out into the hallway. It had been about 12 minutes and she wanted to beat the boys to the lobby. In the hallway she hopped onto the next elevator and waved goodbye to her still confused cousin as he peeked down the hallway in the direction of the elevators. The doors slipped shut as he stepped out of his room and the elevator headed downwards.
At the lobby she joined Trish on a love seat and set back to wait. They watched the people go by and both wondered about the guys. Five minutes passes and Trish stood and stretched.
"They'll be late. Just because its Edge and Jeff, Edge will need to fix his hair, and Jeff will forget his bag of skittles, and then end up wanting to re-dye his hair seven different shades." Trish said with an apologetic look at Willow. "Is that Takers vest?" She added.
"Yep. I stole it from him. Hows it look?" Willow asked, running a hand over the vest. "Are the guys really that bad?"
"Most of the time." Trish affirmed. "It looks good, don't give it back to him." They both laughed and Trish sat back down. "They are both great guys, but Jeff always has something on his mind and he changes it about every four seconds. And then Edge, well you've seen that hair. He takes better care of his hair than some people do their children." She laughed and flipped her hair over her shoulder. "Its worth it though."
Willow grinned. "It makes you want to run your hands through it." She paused, "or rip it out of his head for yourself."
"Rip out what from my where now?" Edges voice came from behind them and Willow jumped and squeaked. "You two ready to go or what?" He and Jeff were both dressed completely in black.
"Don't we look all happy to be alive." Willow said sarcastically, "What's with the lurking clothes?"
"Lurking clothes?" Trish cracked up, "Where do you get a style of clothing that is for lurking?" Willow stood and pulled her off the loveseat.
"I'll talk, you three walk." She said as they left the hotel. Trish led the way to the good stores, as Willow started to talk. "Ok so back home, there' this guy, Angel right? He was like all moody and mysterious and lurky. And Buffy, shes the one that taught me how to fight and all, had this major thing for him. But he only showed up when he had information, about umm... gossip and stuff. And he wore all dark colors and lurked. So, lurking clothes." Willow paused to look around and stare, unabashedly at the people around them. "Wow, New York is really, umm different." Trish laughed.
"Every where is different. So tell us about your friends, Buffy, and Giles?" She asked, pulling Willow across the street.
"Well, Buffy, shes like the blond cheerleader type. Giles is older, he's like, our dad kind of guy. He's the stuffy british type. Xander," she paused softly, "He my best bud, since forever. He's the class clown. Then there's Anya, she's Xanders.. she was Xanders fiancee, but thats a really long story. Anyas, hard to explain." Edge interupted her.
"What about this Angel guy?" He asked, as they moved across another busy street.
"Well, Angles in LA now, hes like a Private Eye. Hes still Mr. Moody and Lurky, but Cordys changing that. Cordy, shes the preppy popular queen, the really gorgeous one, she works with him, and she used to be Xanders girlfriend. And theres Dawn." Willow paused and shook her head. "Dawn is, Buffy's little sister, and she's great, a little bundle of energy." She chuckled and then shook her head. "So where's the stores? And Jeff?" She reached backwards and caught his arm. "You will explain what crawled up your brothers ass and made him a prick right?" They passed a shallow alley way and turned left onto another block. Willow gasped, "Macy's! We can go in there right?" Trish grabbed her and they ran towards Macy's.
"After this we hit Sax 5th." Trish called. Jeff and Edge shook their heads and walked after them at a much slower pace. A shadow slipped from the alley and rapidly caught up to them and kicked Edge in the back of the knee. He and Jeff turned to face Anya.
"You prick!" She hissed. "You reshaped time? I fell face first into central park for no reason. With out Willow to catch me." Edge blinked and opened hi mouth. "Oh no, no talking blondie.I can't believe you did that." Jeff interupted her.
"Um, Anya, how do you know we, Edge, re-spun time?" He asked softly.
"Hello?" Anya gestured at her self "Vengence demon..." She slapped him upside the head. "It ain't gonna affect me! Especially when i'm summoned. And i was, twice. Once against all of you and Once against Matt." She grinned. "Now my question to you is, do i make with the vengence, cause if i remember correctly she wanted him to have to put up with a baby for a day. All by himself, and see how much he liked being grabbed and yanked at. I gotta say its unique, and i would love to see how the manly man himself would pull it off. Or do i make with the shopping and 'run into you'?" She stamped her foot impatiently after about 2 seconds had passed. "Well? Vengence or shopping?"
"Shopping Anya." Edge said. "Now we'd better get going before the girls come back to get us." Anya nodded and Edge and Jeff ran into Macy's. Inside, waiting impatiently for them were Willow and Trish. "We had to sign autographs."
"I thought we were shopping." Jeff said. "Why aren't you dragging us around and asking if 'this makes you ass look fat?'?" Willow and Trish shared and evil look and each grabbed a guy. Trish grabbed Edge and Willow got Jeff. They dragged their respective man slave off to ladies wear.
Willow descended on a saleswoman and put on her Cordy attitude "Excuse me?" She asked haughtily. "I've just gotten a new job and i need a brand new wardrobe." The woman smiled icily and looked Willow up and down. She opened her mouth to speak and Willow snapped at her. "I wear a size 6. Why aren't you moving?" She tilted her head to the side and waved at some chairs next to the changing rooms. "we'll be over their. I like black, and red, and young. I'll let you see if your store might have anything I might like." The saleswoman looked like a fish out of water, and Willow smiled to herself. The joys of going to high school with Cordielia Chase. You could cow a saleswoman at fifty paces. She pulled Jeff down to sit on a chair as the saleswoman snapped to life.
"well!" She demaded icily of the other sales women, "You heard the lady. Get moving. Lucy," She hauled one girl aside, "see if they want any beverages. I'll be in my office." She bustled away and Lucy headed over to them.
"She doesn't even have an office." Lucy said with a smile when she reached them. "Can i get you guys anything? Something to drink? eat?" She smiled at them easily. "We'll take better care of you, than she ever could."
Willow smiled and waved at Jeff. "I'm fine, but did you want anything Jeff?" Jeff shook his head and stared at her in amazement.
"How did you do that?" He asked finally. Lucy nodded her head energenically.
"She doesn't do that for famous people." The salesgirl said with a grin.
"I was lucky enough to go to high school with the queen bitch of them all, Cordy Chase. She tried to teach me to shop once." Willow explained with a sigh.
"Well you certainly learned." Lucy sighed. "Are you sure i can't get you anything? If i take care of you, I'll be the one to ring up the sales when your done."
"Oh in that case, Can you get us some coffee and oh gee, I don't know, some chocolate." Willow asked, splaying one hand out in front of her. "you have makeup counters down stairs right? Grab some random salespeople down there to bring some dark nail polish up here." Lucy grinned and ran off, visions of dollar signs dancing in her head and Willow turned to Jeff. "ok, your turn to talk." Her smile disappeared and she leaned towards him. "Tell me about your brother."
