A/N: Sorry I just realized I posted the wrong chapter, which means that you get two chapters today, make sure to read both of them.

Chris was over again and had brought Chinese. Chris had started in the last couple of weeks bringing him food whenever he came over and Xander very much appreciated it. He liked the American version of food much more. Chris came over about 2 or 3 times a week now and it was always a nice experience. Xander was eating with relish and Chris was barely managing from laughing at him as he found it funny that Xander enjoyed the food Chris brought so much. Then again Chris hadn't been without it for months. When Xander finished he eyed Chris untouched food. Chris noticing finally opened and started eating his food.

"Hey do want to do something this weekend?" Chris knew he couldn't leave, but he had started bringing things over which Xander missed and even Rona and Kris were happy to see him because of that. Rona and Kris had started calling him Chris Kringle especially after he had brought them both their brand of makeup from the United States. Chris didn't buy it though, he had his cousin Melinda to buy it for him instead. Xander owed Chris bunch of money from all the things that he had brought. Xander remembered the original question.

"I'd love to but I can't."

"Why not?" Chris asked not angrily just curiously.

"Contrary to popular belief do have a life outside this place." Chris laughed. , showing that he knew that Xander had no life outside this place, Xander laughed then admitted.

"I'm going to Italy."

"It's nice there, so any particular reason why you're going there?"

"You've been?" Chris looked at him and Xander slapped his head lightly." Right you can orb, you've probably have been everywhere... Dawn, I told you about Dawn right?" He was pretty sure that Chris knew almost everything about his life at this point except for the things he purposely hid and he knew a lot about Chris's life too. The name of all his family members, how old they were, and little tidbits about things they had done to annoy him over the years. At Chris's nod Xander continued." Dawn's not out of school yet. So they couldn't really come here, plus they don't really have room around here so I'm going there. Willow's going to meet us there."

"Was there a why in there or did I miss it?"

"Oh next weeks my birthday."Chris brows lifted in surprise.

"Oh really happy Birthday. If I would have know I would have got you something." Xander fidgeted a little

"Well there is something you can do."

"And what's that?" Chris asked not liking the way Xander had said that.

"Well for my birthday present could you orb me to Italy. It would save me the 10 hour plane ride I'd have to take if you didn't." Chris shrugged.

"Sure I don't see why not, just don't make this a habit I already orb my mom and my Aunt Phoebe and Dad everywhere I don't want to just become a taxi service."

"I promise I won't, thanks Chris."

"No problem so when's the special day?"

"Next Thursday." Chris's eyebrows creased.

"Really weird so is mine."

"What are the chances?" Xander asked.

"Actually it's petty high there about 2 people in my high school same year and same birthday as me." Xander shook his head ruefully.

"You just had to ruin my moment didn't you?" Chris shrugged then smiled.

"Yep."

"You know what that also means? It means that I'm not the only one holding out on when their Birthday is. Well I already had an idea for my present do you?"

"You don't have to get me anything." Chris said dismissively.

"Uh I'm hurt. You got me something the least I can do is return the favor."

"I'm orbing you somewhere I do it all the time for my mom, and dad, and aunts. It's very routine for me."

"Alright then have me doing something very routine for me. Need any demons beheaded?"

"My demons are slightly different from your demons."

"I know that but I could..kill...something...couldn't I?" At Chris's non-believing look Xander slumped

"Fine maybe I couldn't vanquish your demons for you, but it's not my fault that I don't have any magical powers. But I am going to get you something an athame no?" Chris shook his head "Um I got it a nice bottle of tequila."

"No."

"Who can say no to tequila?"

"Well you for starters."

"Yeah but I'm weird." Xander trailed off and Chris thought the matter was dropped till Xander said

"How about Frog warts." Chris brows creased again and Xander wondered if he had said anything wrong.

"What? Or not it was a weird suggestion to begin with I'm not even sure how my mind got there."

"No it's just I need that ingredient for a potion I'm making, but I don't know how you could have known that."

"Lucky guess?" Xander ventured.

"Weirdly lucky guess."

"So you need it?" Chris nodded. "Great then we're even you give me a ride and I'll give you frog warts." Xander face screwed up as he thought about what he had just said and said "You know what I mean." Chris nodded.

"So how old are you turning?" Chris asked.

"23."

"Me too." Chris said.

"Well we should do something. I mean I can spare an hour away from my friends or you can come with us, which ever one your more comfortable with. We should find a restaurant that gives free deserts and then we can get two." Xander said with a smirk.

"Sounds great if I'm not doing anything and can get away I'll do just that." Chris said smiling back.
