*means internal thought*
Rehearsal Dinner *I don't know what goes on at these...so just bear with me, please*
It had been a week since Buffy and Spike were over. A week since Riley and Sam came to town and ruined Spike's
un-life. A week since Willow had seen Tara, and it was tonight, at the rehearsal dinner for Xander and Anaya's wedding that each of these people,
(save Riley and Sam) would meet.
It was about 6:00 P.M. and all of the wedding party was entering the doors. Everyone was there, except Spike.
"Who the hell does he think he is? Not showing up for our wedding dinner/rehearsal?! I invited him, and he didn't come!" Anya ranted
to Xander, who was just as upset.
"We should kick him out," he stated plainly.
"Kick him out? What the hell are you talking about, Harris? We need Spike! We need him to be standing there, across from Buffy!" she
pointed to where all of the bridesmaids were standing in a line, waiting for Anya to walk up the aisle. It was Halfrek, Buffy, Willow, Tara, and
Dawn onthe right. On the left demon named Cirus, a spot for Spike, a friend of Xander's, Jake, a demon with tentacle, Orchi, and a horned
teen-age demon, Fortus.
"Come now, Anyanka, let's get this rehearsal finished with. We all have things to do," D'Hoffryn calmly said. He was going to 'give her
away' to Xander, since he was the closest thing Anya had to a father.
"Oh, all right. Not like I have anything to do tonight, other than practice my vows. I can't sleep with Xander, so there will be no orgasms
for me tonight," she pouted, while glaring at Xander.
"It's tradition," Xander shrugged.
"Tradition-smuadition! I'm not asking the bridesmaid to wear the traditional bridesmaids outfits! We're only doing human traditions!" she
complained.
"An, we already had this conversation," Xander reminded her.
"I only agreed because we were about to f-"
"Um, let us start the rehearsal ceremony," the minister called. Sighing, Anya and D'Hoffryn walked down the red aisle, followed by Xander.
The practice wedding did not take to long, and Anya wished it was all over, but it wasn't. Something she'd just need to deal with. By the time
they practiced everything a couple of times it was around 7, and everyone was starving.
"So, how about some grub?" Xander said, and everyone agreed and piled back into their cars. Dinner was going to be at Buffy's house, so
they could accomadate human and demon needs.
After dinner, Buffy, Willow, Giles, and Dawn were relieved to have everyone out of the house.
"God, some of Anya's friends are weird. But D'Hoffryn's pretty nice. Halfrek kept asking me if I 'wished' for anything though," Dawn
randomly commented as they watched television.
"And what, exactly did you say to that?" Buffy said supspiciously.
"I said no, duhh!" Dawn said rolling her eyes. "But she did say something about Spike."
"What about him?" Buffy asked, perking up.
"Well, when Anya said where's William the Bloody, she looked up. And Anya explained to her that Spike was William the Bloody. And
then Halfrek said, he's probably off somewhere writing poetry," Dawn told Buffy.
"Poetry...How did she...nevermind, not caring about what she said about the soulless dead thing," Buffy dismissed the topic and reverted
her attentions back to the television. Everyone exchanged looks before getting back into the show. It was about travelling to exotic places.
