"Well, he did break Parker's nose. That was rather nice."
'Buuuuffy. You said it would work. It has been two days. TWO DAYS. I haven't gone this long without hearing from him since he started the game. I think I just succeeded in pissing him off."
"Wills, Rome was not built in a day."
"What?"
"I've always wanted to say that." Buffy smiled. "Ok ok....the jealous thing didn't work. He just beat his competition. You have to admit, it was rather romantic."
"You are seriously warped."
"Yeah...but you love me anyway. OK. Write him. Who says he has to be the one to instigate things. Ask him why he hasn't been around. Maybe he'll slip up when he is confronted."
"That is a very dumb idea."
"Well, excuse me. I don't see your brilliant mind coming up with answers. If I were you, I'd just go over to his apartment, tell him you know and proceed to his fuck his brains out. But, hey, that's me."
"Yeah, and then have him reject me and tell me that it was all just a joke. Just a game."
"Write him. See what happens. That's all I can suggest. I'll try to think of something else. OK?"
"Fine. Thanks for helping me. You are a great friend."
"I know. Just remember, details. I have decided that my life is dull compared to yours. I will just live vicariously through you from now on."
Willow just laughed. "Yeah, that's me. Excitement girl. I'll call you later. Bye."
Buffy watched her friend leave. She really hoped
everything worked out.
