Xander stood outside Snyder's office eating custard
off his nose with his tongue. He could hear the
rodent principal ripping into Buffy. As always,
if anything goes wrong it's Buffy's fault. Xander
felt sorry for her, especially as this once it wasn't
really her doing. . .
. . .They were sitting in the cafeteria, it was a
lunch time just like any
other, apart from the lack of snakes or cockroaches.
Willow was sitting on Oz's lap, both of them keeping
an eye out for Snyder and Buffy was in the middle of
relating a funny story about Vampire Slaying. Xander
wasn't really paying attention though, he was too busy
watching Faith walking across the room. She was
wearing a very low cut top and a skirt that didn't
leave much to the imagination, and Xander had a very
vivid imagination.
A baked bean hit Xander squarely between the eyes,
knocking him out of his daydreaming. "Get your mind
out of the gutter, Harris," Buffy laughed,
another baked bean on her fork ready for launching.
"My mind was nowhere near the gutter," he retorted,
his eyes slipping back to Faith who was fending off a
pass from Larry. "Do you think I should go over and
save her?"
"I don't think she'll be the one that needs saving,"
Oz replied around of mouthful of chips.
Buffy flicked another bean at Xander, this one
hitting him on the nose.
"Two-nil to the Slayer," she grinned.
Xander forked up a pile of mashed potato and
brandished it threateningly towards Buffy. "Oh dear,"
he said. "Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear."
"You wouldn't dare," Buffy said leaning back in her
chair.
Xander raised an eybrow, the challenge accepted. "Oh
wouldn't I?" He flicked the mashed potato and it
landed in Buffy's hair. Willow and Oz shuffled away
slightly from the table. Buffy reached up and picked
the potato out of her hair, her eyes narrowing.
"You really shouldn't have done that."
Xander grinned widely, heaping more mashed potato
onto his fork and Buffy filled a spoon with custard.
"Do you think you can flick beans at me without some
comeback?" he shook his head mock-sadly, "Oh Buffy," he
sighed, "you are so sadly mistaken." he flicked his
potato and ducked. Buffy had anticipated this and her
missile splattered all over his face. Xander
retaliated immediately, but Buffy managed to move out
of the way and it sailed past her to hit Larry in the
side of the head. He did not look pleased.
He swung around to face the table the Slayer and the
slayerettes were sitting at, his face turning a
frightening shade of purple. "Who - did - that?"
he asked slowly. Xander and Buffy pointed at each
other, both holding heaped spoons of food. As Larry
angrily approached their table, Buffy was momentarily
distracted and Xander took his chance to hit her full
in the face with some of Willow's spaghetti bolognase.
Willow and Oz started to back away towards the
cafeteria doors. Larry picked up someone else's plate
flew over him and Buffy and hit Jonathon square in the
back two tables behind.
"FOOD FIGHT!!" someone yelled flinging their lunch
across the room.
It became a free-for-all. Buffy and Xander ignored
everyone else in the room and carried on their own
personal vendetta. Xander crept up behind Buffy who
was looking for him, picking up a bowl of ice cream on
his way.
Oh so quietly he crept up on her and poured the ice
cream down the back of her shirt. She squealed and
swung around smacking Xander in the face.
"OW!" he squealed back, reflexively flinging the rest
of the ice cream in the bowl into Buffy's face. He
staggered backwards and slipped on a puddle of food.
He grabbed Buffy as he fell backwards and she landed
on top of him winding him. "Well fancy meeting you
here," he gasped out with a grin, licking mashed
potato off her nose.
"WHAT'S GOING ON IN HERE!?!" Snyder bellowed walking
into the cafeteria and nearly getting a faceful of
food. Everybody froze. Snyder looked down and
saw Buffy and Xander lying at his feet. "You two," he
growled threateningly. "I should have guessed. Wait
outside my office NOW!". . .
. . .Buffy opened the door to Snyder's office and
smiled at Xander.
"You're nee-xt," she said in a sing-song voice. As
she walked past him she wiped some custard off her
face with her finger. She started to walk away, but
turned to face him, sucking on her finger. "Don't
think this is over," she grinned wickedly.
Xander smiled goofily after her as she walked down
the corridor towards the girls locker room.
"HARRIS!" Snyder bellowed, "Get in here now!!"
"Yes sir," Xander muttered as he walked defiantly
towards almost certain doom, closing the office door
behind him.
The End!!
