"Mister Harris my office now."





Xander sat in Principal Snyder's office absently fidgeting while the other man reviewed papers neatly stacked on his desk. It wasn't often he was called here, but when he was it was big. Sometimes scary too.

"Your grades are slipping." Snyder finally said. "Your teachers say you've been skipping class again."

"I'm sure I can explain that." Xander said nervously.

Snyder cut him off. "I don't like your friends Xander, I never have and I never will, but there is little I can do about that no matter how much I hate it."

Xander just stared.

Snyder sighed. "I expect your grades to not 'slip' anymore and I do not want to hear of you skipping any more classes."

"I will." Xander is quietly getting out of his chair to leave.

"Xander." Snyder called back.

"yeah?" Xander asked turning back.

"I thought maybe we could stay in this weekend, rent some movies maybe?" Snyder asked a bit uncomfortably.

"Sounds cool." Xander said with a half smile. "Can I pick them this time?"

"A few." Snyder answered back.

Xander nodded opening the door. He stopped halfway out then looked over his shoulder. "I'll be home for dinner Dad." He said and shut the door behind him.
