Chapter 4
Willow leant back against the wall, dropping her bag on the ground. Why did Xander have to ask if she and Cordy were talking about him?
"Willow? What's wrong?"
Willow looked up and saw Buffy there. She looked down at the ground. "Nothing's wrong," she replied quietly.
"Oh, come on. There has to be something wrong," Buffy said, arching an eyebrow.
The redhead sighed. "Fine. Cordelia and I were talking about Xander. She really misses him. I totally blew their relationship because I was.too.selfish. I wanted him.and I couldn't bear to see them together." A tear rolled down her cheek.
"Oh, Willow. You didn't have to lie to Xander, you know," Buffy replied gently, walking over to her friend.
The young Wicca sat down on the floor and buried her face in her hands.
"I.I." she trailed off, at a loss for words.
Buffy knelt down beside Willow. She placed a hand on her best friend's shoulder. "It.It's gonna be okay. Trust me."
But even Buffy knew she had lied.
"Come on. Let's go over to my place. Mom won't be home, so we've got a whole four hours before I've got to go patrol."
Buffy and Willow stood up, Willow wiping her eyes. She took her bag and slung it over her shoulder.
"What about Xander?" Will asked quietly.
"What about me?" came a voice from behind.
Willow and Buffy turned to find Xander standing behind them.
"Xander. How-how long have you been standing there?" Buffy asked, her eyes wide.
"Only long enough to hear that you two were going over to your place. Mind if I join?"
"Actually, we'll be studying for that Science test tomorrow, but if you're sure you want to come, then fine by us." Willow shrugged.
Xander sighed. "Fine. I'll come along."
He walked over to his two best friends and slung an arm around each of their shoulders, and they walked to Buffy's place, talking and laughing. ~~~~~~~~~~***~~~~~~~~~~***~~~~~~~~~~***~~~~~~~~~~***~~~~~~~
If one of them happened to look behind, then they would've seen the sad figure of Cordelia Chase, a tear rolling down her cheek.
