-----------------------------------------------------------------------

I watched the vampire approach her. As he did, my anger grew by the second. He was directly over her when I leaped forward and landed directly in front of him.

With my eyes flaring and saliva dripping from my mouth, I pounced on the undead demon. "Get off me, you mangy mutt."

What happened next surprised the human being of Xander Harris. I took a bite out of the demon, and he turned to dust.

With a mighty howl, I leapt from Buffy's side and attacked the remaining eight vampires-biting them left and right. And like the first vampire I attacked, they all turned to dust.

Just as I killed the last vampire, I turned around and saw Buffy stirring. At that moment, when she came around, my eyes rolled back and I fainted.

A short time later, I woke up and saw Buffy approaching me. She looked at me, and asked, "You alright, Xand?"

I nodded, "I guess." Then I looked down my body and saw that I was naked. I immediately covered my penis and blush, "be right back, Buffy. Gotta get dressed."

Without hearing anything else, I ran back to the crypt and gathered my clothes. I backed into the corner and put on my boxers followed by my jeans, shirt, and the rest of my clothes.

As soon as I finished, something struck me? Why was I human? Shouldn't I still be a werewolf? There's a full moon out and it's only 2 o'clock in the morning.

Before I could further analyze anything, I heard someone approaching me. I turned around and saw Buffy standing at the doorway. "What just happened, Xander? I just woke up when I saw you fighting that vampire. You took a bite out of him, and he turned to dust. Then you fainted and turned back into a human."

I shrugged, "I don't have the slightest idea, Buffy. However, there was something different about this time as a werewolf rather than last night."

She stepped forward me and squatted right in front of me. "How so?"

I scratched the back of my head; "I actually remember something during the time when I was a werewolf. I remember you talking to me, and I answered you."

She looked at me confusingly, "There is definitely weird going on about you-something that isn't naturally werewolf."

I agreed, "Definitely." Then something hit me. I narrowed my eyes, "you saw me naked."

My friend giggled, "Yeah, I guess I did."

I continued with the tone, "Just for that, Buffy. I should get a chance to see you naked too."

Buffy shook her head, "I don't think so, Xander."

I flashed her a set of puppy dog eyes, "C'mon, Buff. Please?"

"No." The blond said sternly.

I stood up and approached her. I squatted in front of her until we were face-to-face. "Why not? I believe I've got a better penis then Angel, Riley, or Spike."

Buffy glanced at my crotch and then back at me, "I can definitely say that you do, Xander. But, you still can't see me naked."

I pouted, and stood up, "Fine, Buffy. I don't want see you naked anyway. You're probably small and couldn't handle seeing the size of my werewolf penis."

The Slayer stood up and glared at me, "I'm not small."

I chuckled, "Sorry to say this, Buffy. You are. I mean, you're just a little over five feet."

"Blame that on my parents, Xander. It's not my fault I come from short stock."

At that point, two of us were barely nose-to-nose. Well, actually Buffy was staring up into my eyes. We were practically breathing on each other.

We stayed like that for a few moments.

"Why won't my feet work?" I asked her.

Buffy replied, "Dunno. Mine won't move either."

I took a deep breath, and moved my head down. Buffy stood up on her toes and the two of us brushed our lips together. Just as gentle as before, but there was something different this time around. Rather than pulling apart, we continued kissing.

The blond pressed her hands down on my chest, and the two of us lied on the ground of the crypt-the whole time kissing, not wanting to let go of one another.

Buffy was about to lift my shirt off my chest when I immediately stopped her, "Wait, Buffy."

Buffy let go and sat up. Her legs straddling mine, "Yeah?"

A deep breath was made, "I don't know if we should do this. "

She sighed, "Because of Anya, right?"

I nodded, "I love her, Buffy."

"But she broke up with you for being a werewolf, and she didn't give you a reason. Listen, you and I went through a lot within the last few days. You've reached me when no one was able to do-not even Spike or Angel. We became really close, and I can't live without you, Xander. I think I'm falling in love with you, and I want to try us out."

Wait! Buffy loves me? Wow! But do I love her? Of course I do. Just look at what all I've thought about the last few days. Thinking of her all this time has definitely rekindled my feelings for her. I haven't even thought this way about Anya. God, I do love her. Buffy, I mean.

But Anya?

Do I really want to end it with her? Do I really want to throw away two years of dating? Now, that I think about it, love has always been something people felt about each other without prejustice. I love Anya...I mean, I loved her. I was able to put aside the fact that she was a demon, but she can't get passed the fact that I'm a werewolf. If she loved me, she would've at least tried to deal with it. She wouldn't have run off like that.

I looked at Buffy and caressed the side of her face, "Buffy?"

She clasped my hand from her face and brought it into her hands. In an almost whisper, my friend replied, "Yeah, Xander?"

I took a deep breath, "I've thought about what you said."

A nod was made, "And?"

I decided to be completely honest with her, "From the moment I laid eyes on you so many years ago, I fell in love with you. As time went on I got to know more and more about you. You became my hero, and you still are. But, a part of me loves Anya still. I guess a part of me will always. I even love Cordelia to some degree. However, neither one of them have been able to make me feel the way I do about you. There's no denying it. I love you, Buffy, and I want to spend the rest of my existence by your side."

A grin appeared across her face and fresh tears emerged from her eyes. She lowered herself down onto me and captured my lips in a soft kiss. The blond withdrew her lips from mine and laid her head on my chest. My friend rubbed her hand across my chest. "Are you sure you wanna to do this, Xander? I don't want to go through this with you unless you completely want this."

I took my hand and lifted her chin so she could see me directly in the eyes. "I want this, I want us."

She flashed a smile and pulled me in a hug followed by a quick kiss on the forehead. "Now, how about you and I go back to the Magic Box, talk to Willow, and see if there's anything that she can tell us about your werewolf problem."

I smiled, "I was kinda hoping that we could stay here and hold each other for a little while longer."

Buffy looked at me lovingly and caressed my cheek much like I did to her before, and said to me, "I wouldn't it have it any other way."

She lowered herself back onto me and rested her head on my chest again. I soon began running my fingers down her hair. Both of us closed our eyes and snuggled into each other.

We stayed like this for about ten more minutes. Neither of us saying anything. All that was sounded was the chirping of crickets.

Shortly, I said, "Buffy?"

"Hmm?" she whispered with a serene smile on her face.

I kissed the top of her head, "I love being with you like this, but we gotta go."

She nodded, and she slowly pulled away from me. As soon as she got into a sitting position, my new girlfriend stretched her arms out and pouted, "Alright, Xander. I guess your right."

I rubbed my left hand down Buffy's right arm and said to her, "I promise you this, Buff. Tonight, I got the last of my three nights of werewolf transformations. Tomorrow, after patrol, I'll be more than willing to sleep next to you at your house. That, or you could stay at mine."

The Slayer kissed me one more time on the lips, and then the two of us left the crypt the whole time with me wrapping my arm around Buffy's shoulders and she wrapped her arm around my waist.

The walk to the Magi Box was quiet and enjoyable. We simply enjoyed being with each other.

As soon as we got inside we spotted Willow and she looked like she was asleep on a couple books.

I turned to my new girlfriend, "Isn't that cute? Our little Willow tuckered herself out."

She smiled, "That is definitely cute," then she turned to me, "but you're more cute."

I grinned and blushed, "I've had years of practice. It all started that fateful day twenty-two years ago."

The blond stood on her toes and kissed me on the lips briefly, "All that practice certainly made a difference."

"You better believe it, Buff," then I turned to my already asleep friend, "watch this."

I covered Willow's eyes with my hands and said in a different voice, "Willow, honey, its time to wake up."

My best friend managed to say, "Not now. Sleepy time."

"Ah...c'mon Williow. Guess who it is."

Willow ignored what I said.

"You're no fun. Just for that, I'm going to make out with Tara."

The mention of her girlfriend's name woke up. Without turning around she said, "You stay away from her, you meanie."

I chuckled in my normal voice, "Relax Wills. I wouldn't touch Tara. She's not my sexual orientation."

Her eyes widened, or that's what I guess happened. I can't see what Willow does when I look at the back of her head. All I see is that mess of red hair.

"Don't do that, Xander." Then she slapped me in the back of the head.

I sighed, "Sorry, Will. Just couldn't resist."

All of a sudden Willow shrieked, "Xander! What are you doing being you? Shouldn't you still be the werewolf?"
