The Vengeance Demon…Anya

"The name I made I'll trade for his."

Anya smiles as she changes into her night clothes and trots over to the bathroom. The sight of her toiletries next to Xander's elates her and makes her feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Not warm and fuzzy like a bunny though because that's just disturbing and why would anyone like to be like a bunny? Her gaze is immediately drawn to her engagement ring.

She is old, a lot older than the Scoobies put together, including Spike and never in a thousand years did she ever believe she would find herself in this position. If someone had said to her that she would find happiness and fall in love with a mortal man, she would have ripped off their ears and made them into a fashion accessory. Yet Anya has fallen for a mortal man by the name of Alexander Harris, she loves him dearly and this ring adorning her finger is symbolic of his never ending love for her. He loves her so much that he wishes to make her his wife.

Making her his wife would mean marriage and marriage is for life. Marriage is forever and the thought of her spending the rest of her life with Xander makes her very happy.

As for the events of tonight, Anya doesn't care much about what has happened. Of course, she feels some sort of sympathy for Buffy and even goes as far as to wonder about which heavenly dimension she was pulled from. This is the extent of her concern. She has far more important things to consider such as bridal showers and arrangements for her wedding. For their wedding.

She pulls out the brightly coloured toothbrush and applies plenty of toothpaste. Anya closes the cabinet and is greeted by her very attractive outward appearance. She smiles as she starts brushing her already perfectly white teeth softly. Once more her mind wonders but this time it is about the wedding.

She imagines the wedding and how pretty her dress shall be and how handsome Xander will look. Already she is having unbelievable pleasant feelings and spits into the sink. They are not even married and she is starting to get a sense of martial bliss by moving in with him, at least she thinks they have moved in together as she has most of her stuff over here. Hence the moving in together part. Anya sips at some water, swirls it around her mouth then spits into the sink once more to get rid of any excess toothpaste. She dries her mouth and looks into the mirror once more, admiring her reflection.

Xander is upset and she knows that it is her duty as his bride to be to try and cheer him up. She takes one last look in the mirror but she frowns as she realises that soon she will not be so pleased with her appearance as she is right now.

One day she will grow old, she will age and die. However, the thought no longer scares her as much as it once did for she knows that Xander will always be by her side throughout the years.

"Will I look good when I've gotten old?"
