Willow rocked nervously on her feet as she stood beside Buffy. She really wasn't looking forward to the reactions of her best friend and her boyfriend. What if they hated it? What if Oz dumped her cause he liked her hair long? She felt a sharp pain in her ribs and realised it had been Buffy's elbow.
The Slayer was giving Willow the thumbs up and then she called out, "Okay boys, open up!"
Oz and Xander did as instructed. They both sat their open mouthed.
Buffy knew what would be going through Willow's head right now. Willow was still not sure if she should have cut her hair, and she really hadn't wanted to surprise them like this. If they didn't say something soon then Buffy concluded, she couldn't be held responsible for her actions, or the pain caused due to her actions.
Luckily she didn't have to as Oz smiled. A huge smile and Buffy thought maybe it was the first time she'd seen his teeth. He stood up and walked over to his girlfriend, who was currently sporting an anxious and nervous smile of her own. Buffy watched as Oz ran his hand through her hair and leaned forward and kissed her gently on the mouth. He whispered to her, and though the words were inaudible Buffy could lip read. He'd told her she was beautiful.
Xander stood up too. "Wow, Will! You look all grown up. In a good way! It's nice, really, really nice. I like it."
"You do?" Willow was still a little unsure.
Xander grinned at her, "Yeah, this is a well better surprise than chocolate!"
"Oh, we brought that too!" Buffy said handing him a huge bar of Hershey's.

Later on as they walked towards Buffy's where they were all staying the night in a celebration of Xander's last night before he headed on his travels, Oz stopped walking. Willow looked curiously at him. Their fingers were interlaced and his sudden stop had caused her to stop too. Xander and Buffy continued to walk in front.
"I wanted to talk to you." Oz told her.
"Oh." A lump had formed in Willow's throat. This could not be good.
"I really like the hair."
Willow smiled softly, "But?"
Now it was Oz's turn to look curious, "Sorry?"
"You like the hair but...? You don't think I should have cut it do you? You liked it long.."
A gentle finger over her mouth quietened her ramble. The finger was replaced by a pair of warm lips. He coaxed her mouth open with his own, taking his time, and enjoying the feel of her tongue play with his. Ending the kiss was almost painful.
"No buts." Oz traced patterns on her cheek and then placed his forehead on hers. "I just wish we didn't have to go to Buffy's."
"Why?" Willow said her voice a little husky.
"Because, you look so hot tonight. I think I'm gonna struggle to keep my hands to myself."
"You're such a beast!" Willow laughed.
"Sometimes I am." Oz agreed, as they started walking again.
THE END
A/N: This isn't what I initially had in mind for their reactions. While the thoughts I have in my head are good when it comes to writing them down however, it goes all pear-shaped! Lol! Anyway, please R&R. Thanks for reading!!
