Safety
By Trisana McGraw
She nervously twirled her keys, casting suspicious glances at the innocent-looking vehicle sitting outside the phone booth. "Any vampires craving an unsuspecting, pretty girl for lunch could jump into my car while I'm driving."
Xander sounded exasperated, but that was normal whenever they talked. "It's daytime, Cordelia."
"But –"
"Don't worry about it. Willow's preparing that uninviting spell for Buffy's house; she'll use it for your car, too."
He was trying to be patient, she could tell, but his soothing tone nonetheless helped to lift some of her anxiety. "Thanks, Xander."
He sighed. "Your welcome." She felt a little safer.
