"Huh? That's weird. Usually if a human walked in here it's like feeding
time for sharks, except demons are much worse."
"I'm human as far as I know." X thought a moment.
"Well, whatever the reason feel lucky your not being fed on. I myself am the only demon here that doesn't want to take a bit of your flesh." I went and sat at a table. X just stood there probably too nerves to move. "Are you gonna sit down or would you rather stand?"
So he walked over and sat down. I was too young to drink so I got a coke. He had a burbon chaser. Besides I tried to order the same, and Willie wouldn't serve me one. Surprising though, I mean I've beat him up so many times you would think he'd at least given me what I want. But it was probably for the best. But when X went to the bathroom I stole a sip. Not to bad. He came back with blood all over his knuckles.
"Uh.. X what did you do?"
"This guy was drunk and diss'in me. So I roughed him up a bit."
"Here wipe your knuckles, a cop sees that and your gone for good." I hand him a napkin.
I take a minute to look at my watch.
"4 am? Whoa we have been here since 9 last night. I think the heat has died down."
"Is there any place I could stay 'till I can get home?"
"Not really you could stay with us. Well maybe not. My sister was supposed to come home for my party today. I turned 18 today. Which went down the drain. Hey when we met on the road I thought I saw you somewhere before, and I think I just remembered where. You also look a lot like an actor I know, well I don't know him personally."
"Where did you see me?"
"In XXX the movie."
"I've never been in a movie."
"Uh.. This is too weird. You said your name was Xander Cage right? Vin Diesel an actor plays a character in a move named Xander Cage. Ok lets add up the info here. Ok. 1: You look just like Vin Diesel. 2: you say your name is Xander Cage. 3: you say you've never been in a movie and yet your wearing the same shirt and motto pants as in the movie."
"Ok, yeah so."
"But there is one question I have. Why were you walking near LA when in the movies you were picked up by your buddies? This is just too weird, even for me."
"I don't know all I remember is doing my stunt then walking along the road to get away from the cops."
"I think Giles might be able to help. Lets go." I jumped up and ran outside to start up my motorcycle.
"Who's Giles?" X followed me with the question.
As I ran out I threw a twenty at Willie.
"Giles is a friend of the family. A watcher for the slayers. I'll fill you in on the way to my house."
**********Meanwhile
Mom, dad, Emma, and Giles were waiting impatiently for me to come home after leaving yesterday.
"Mom? Do you think he's alive? And if he's not can I have his room?" Emma asked with a smile. She quickly ran upstairs and came down with a map of my room turned into her makeup room. (Ew makeup.)
"Emma you can't have Williams room because he's not dead."
"Giles how long has he been gone?" Dad was more worried than mom, Emma, and Giles put together. Which for him is pretty worried.
Suddenly the door opened X and I walked in.
"Mom, dad, Emma, Giles I brought a friend. I thought he could stay for awhile."
Emma gave X the oh he's mine look.
"It's fine with me." Emma gave X the "want some fun?" look.
"And Emma I want you to stay as far away from him as possible. Every body this is Xander Cage, or X." I pointed to each and introduced each. "And this is my older sister Emma." I said it with dulled content.
"Hi." X said and waved.
"I'll show you the guest room." I jolted up the stairs with X behind me trying to keep up.
**************************Upstairs in the guest room. When we got up there we set up the bed and bathroom and junk.
"So why did you do what you did?" I gave X a puzzled look.
"The California Senator wanted to ban rap music because he feels that the lyrics promote violence. He also wants to pull ever videogame off every shelf because he feels they diminish the intelligence of our youth."
"I would have done the same thing for that same reason."
"William?"
"Will."
"Will. Your family seems nice." X sat on the couch in the guest room.
"What's wrong Xander? Whoa it feels weird to say that name again after all this time."
"Nothing I'm fine. What's weird about it?"
"Well, a few years ago I had this friend named Xander Harris. He was one of my mom's friends. Well when my parents faced the Master for the second time the Master killed Willow, Tara, and Xander. I haven't said Xander in four years." I sat on the bed and one silvery tear fell down my face.
"That must have been tough."
"Kinda." I looked at the window and the sun had started to set. "Oh my gosh. Sunset. I gotta go." I stood up and headed out the room.
"where are you going?" Xander headed after me.
"Slaying. I'm supposed to patrol myself tonight, every body's going to the movies." As I was running for the back door I saw hair in my eyes. So I stopped on the spot.
"Will what's wrong?"
"My hair is over my eyes. I just got a haircut."
"Then how can your hair grow over night?"
"Uh… My voice, it's getting higher like a girls."
"Um… Will sorry to break this to you but you are a girl." "What? No. This can't be happening. I'm not a girl. I think I'm gonna go look in my sister's closet."
"Not a bad idea." Xander started to laugh as we walked upstairs.
***************Meanwhile in an old abandon house
"Ok girls we finished the spell, hopefully it worked. Then we can dress my brother up in pretty pink dress's and stuff." Emma was so mad at me. She turned me into a girl.
***************************Back home
"Ok. Xander I've been in here for three solid hours. I think I found the best outfit. I'm coming out."
"Ok"
So I walk out of Emma's room wearing a pair of her hip huggers and a bright pick belly shirt.
"Do you like it?" I felt so self-conscience.
"I like it. I think you look great."
"Thanks Xander."
"Um…Will? Would you like to go somewhere for dinner or somthin?"
"Sure. And you better call me Elizabeth. Ok?"
"Ok."
"How about we go to the Bronze?"
"Just as long as there's no demons involved."
"I can't promise anything. Here maybe we can find you some other clothes in my dads closet. And we have plenty of time the Bronze is open 24/7." After spending two hours looking for something to fit Xander I noticed something I hadn't and probably because I was a guy, but I noticed that I felt something for Xander. I felt like we were ment to be together. When I was around Xander it was like being around a best friend but it was more than that. Hold on. Xander jr. stop picking on your sister. Ok back to my story. For some reason I felt like all was well. In those two hours I thought I was dreaming. "Ok these should hold you over till we can buy you some new stuff." That night I had the best time of my young life I had been a guy since birth. But I turn into a girl and all was well with the world. Sounds kinda weird right? Xander I thought I told you not to tease your sister. Sorry my son likes to tease my daughter. Anyways Xander and I had the time our lives. Oh Elizabeth have you seen my sky blue tie? Yes it's in the dryer. Ok Xander and I went from the bronze to the cliff were Angel used to live and watched the sun rise together. Then from there we went home.
We walked through the door of home and every body was sitting in the living room talking and pacing. Including Emma.
"Xander have you seen William?" Dad was worried again and enough to be the first to talk.
Xander and I laughed a little.
"Uh…Dad."
"William? Is that you in those girls clothes?"
"Uh… Dad I'm not just wearing girls clothes. I was turned into a girl and I like it. I'm not going back." I turned to Xander, grabbed his hand and pulled him upstairs to the guest room. "Here we better get some sleep. I wanna do this again tonight. I had a lot of fun."
"Me too. But Elizabeth most likely tomorrow you will be a guy again."
"No. I'm not going back. I like being a girl." I sat on the couch and crossed my arms.
"Ok. I'm fine with it." Xander sat down beside me and we had you know one of those moment were a guy and a girl get real quiet and lean into each other to kiss. Well Xander made the first move. First it was just a peck, and then he leaned in for a deeper kiss. I pulled away. "What? What's wrong?"
"Nothing, it's just…"
"Just what?"
"This is my first kiss."
"I'm sorry. I'm I going to fast?"
"No. I'm tired that's all." I stood up and walked downstairs to discus the matter of me being a girl with the family.
**************Down in the living room
"Dad I want to stay a girl."
"Why son I mean daughter I mean never mind. Why?"
"Well Xander and I have this connection."
"Hey Xander's mine." Emma jumped up and got red in the face.
"I saw him first."
"Fine you can have him."
"So I can stay a girl?"
"Ok. Elizabeth. You can stay a girl."
I ran up to dad and gave him a hug, as all girls like to do.
"But Elizabeth what are we gonna do with all your guy stuff?"
"Well dad, I think we should keep it. I might like wearing it once and awhile." I turned around and left to go to Emma's room to find a pare of pj's. I looked around for awhile and found these blue ones with stars and moons. I decided to see if Xander was asleep. So I quietly sneaked into the quest room and found him looking at a magazine that I left on the bed last week when Emma took over my room.
"Hey. I thought you went to bed." Xander looked up and patted the bed.
"Well I went to discuss the situation with the group down stairs." I walked over and sat down beside him.
"So.."
"So what?"
"So are you like this for the rest of your life or is a change gonna be made?"
"Well I kinda wanted to ask you. Do you like me as a girl or as a guy?"
"I like you both ways, but I like you this way better."
"Good me too." He laid back and I laid my head on his chest. So I could hear his heartbeat.
**************Next morning
"X have you.. Oh..oh..Oh." dad thought we did somethin but we didn't.
"Uh. Dad we did nothing I swear. Nothing happened." I jumped up off the bed and tried not to wake Xander. "Well if you say so. Pancakes for breakfast."
I waited for dad to walk out the door then turned around and sat on the end of the bed and just looked at the cutest guy in the world sleep. –Man doesn't he look peaceful when he's asleep?-
"What are you looking at?" Xander said with his eyes still closed.
"I thought you were asleep?"
"I was till I noticed that the warmth on my chest became cold."
"Dad wanted me to tell you that we're having pancakes for breakfast." I got up and went into my room and put on some jeans and a T. walked down stairs to find every body eating stakes of hotcakes.
"Every body I have an announcement to make. Elizabeth and I are officially boyfriend and girlfriend." Xander had just reached the last step behind me and made the announcement. And almost gave me a hear-attack.
"Uh..I..I can't see." I said hysterically. All I really remember is waking up in the hospital.
**************In the Sunnydale hospital
I hear crying. I keep my eyes closed. I have a headache but it wasn't that bad. I finally open my eyes but just a little. I see Xander on my left with his head in his hands crying.
"Why are you crying?" I said weakly.
"Because I want you to get better and come home. I haven't seen you smile in a whole week." Xander got closer.
"But you haven't been with us for a week."
"Honey, you've been in acomma for a five days."
"Why?"
"Well the doctor said you have a brain tumor. But your gonna be fine." Xander started to cry again.
"How did I get here?"
"I carried you from the park."
"I know I haven't known you for that long but I luv you." I said that with as much passion as I had. The tears just started to run down my face and pooled in my ears.
"I luv you too." I could see it in his eyes that he really luved me.
"I'm human as far as I know." X thought a moment.
"Well, whatever the reason feel lucky your not being fed on. I myself am the only demon here that doesn't want to take a bit of your flesh." I went and sat at a table. X just stood there probably too nerves to move. "Are you gonna sit down or would you rather stand?"
