Chapter Thirteen
Anya wandered into the Bronze; she was not in a good mood. Normally she would have been happy to go out for the night with some girl friends but the problem was that although she was with the girls they were not friends. It was in fact her two sisters, Faith and Harmony.
"You had to go and have a birthday!" Anya snapped at her older sister, Faith.
"Chill sis we're going to have a good time." Faith replied.
"Name me one time when I have had fun with her." Anya said staring coldly at the youngest sister, Harmony.
"Ok, ok I know she's a little on the simple side but what can we do there's a blood tie!"
"Hey you two should stop being so mean to me, I'm pretty!" Harmony piped up!
"Yeah pretty dumb!" Anya said as she stormed towards the bar.

Buffy threw her playboy bag down on to a table in the bronze and smiled at Willow in thanks her for the drink.
"You're really smiley tonight Miss Summers." Willow commented.
"Why yes I am and why not when I've got so much to be happy for!" Buffy answered with a cheery sound to her voice.
"I'm glad that you can see that because it's true. Is that what tonight's all about, enjoying being happy?"
"I guess. I've got a lot to be happy for, a great job complete benefits of two amazing new friends! And freedom from the crap that men bring with them!" She said with a laugh and sweet smile in the direction of Xander.
"I think I'll choose not to be offended by that." Xander said.
Buffy let her eyes scan the room for old faces from high school and there were plenty there, just like her kids from Sunnydale rarely left. Well apart from the bimbo's that went to find their fame in LA.

"So I totally could not believe it, I'm like stood there with my new Jimmy Choo shoes on waiting to be wooed and he bails, yet again, so I was like" Harmony was cut off mid rant by Anya.
"Hey it is our sisters 25th birthday and she does not want to hear you moan about men. Who are you talking about anyway?" Anya demanded.
"I thought you weren't interested."
"Well I am!"
"Oh you know the usual, Spike."
Anya's head looked as if would explode at very mention of that man's name and Harmony was the perfect person to take that anger out on, "Why in the name of God are you STILL talking about that guy when clearly the very incident you are talking about must have happened years ago."
Harmony's face held a look of confusion for a second, "I'd ask you what your childhood trauma was but as your sister if there was one I'd already know. You crazy this happened last month."
That was it, the final straw for Anya, "You mean that you still see that asshole? Why? God why do you even bother!"
"Because, duh, we're in love. And for the record he is not an asshole." Harmony replied determined to defend him.
"Get a clue. HE DOES NOT LOVE YOU. I'd be surprised if he was capable of loving anyone apart from himself, but if he was it wouldn't be you because he does even like you. He uses you for sex. You are easy to him!" Anya shouted causing numerous people to turn and stare.
"Ok I'm gonna call him and get him over here to tell you that you don't know a thing about what we share!"
"Oh go ahead, he won't come."

Xander was staring over Buffy's shoulder watching a pretty brunette shouting at a blonde girl, "Hey check it out, cat fight!"
Willow giggled at her best friend, "Ok Xander did you fall asleep again and start dreaming? Is there mud?"
Buffy turned to see what Xander was talking about, if there was going to be a fight in the Bronze then the chances were she'd know one of both of the people involved. "Oh that's my friend, Anya"
"The brunette, she's called Anya?" Xander cut in.
"Yep and that's her sister, well there both her sisters, but she's arguing with her younger sister a total pain in the butt. I'll go over say hi, it might calm the situation."
"Hey Buff you don't have to ruin a perfectly good cat fight!"
"Hey I'm to nosey to just sit I gotta find out what the fights about!" Buffy said with a smile as she approached Anya's table. What ever they were fighting about must be interesting because Faith was sat back in her stool laughing.
