Xander is sore.

SORE.

That's the absolute last time he holds the punching bag for baby Slayers.

... You know. Until the next time Buffy asks him.

Besides, now that he's sidled up to Bar and gotten a milkshake to recuperate with, his outlook on life is getting rosier.

"What's that you're drinking?" Molly asks curiously, eyeing the milkshake. She was just about to order tea, but now she's curious.

Just ignore the fact that she's dressed for bed and wearing a purple dressing gown.

Xander eyes her.

Maybe she's a resident. Which he is NOT.

Xander wins.

"Oh, uh, it's a milkshake. Chocolate."

He takes a sinfully delicious drink.

No, not a resident. The bar just appeared where her dorm room should have been. Xander can be the winner anyway, she won't tell.

"Milk. Shake." Molly says, leaning over to look into the glass. "It looks sort of forzen. What's in it?"

Horror descends.

She does know know what a milkshake is.

"It's the nectar of the gods!" Xander assures her. "Imagine (if you will) a beverage that combines the sugary, caloric goodness of ice cream and the calcium-filled osteoporosis-battling of milk. That, my friend, is a milkshake."

A pause.

"Also, it allegedly brings all the boys to the yard."

"Nectar of the Gods, huh?" she grins. "I've got enough boys in my yard, so to speak, but I think I'd like to try one. You say they're chocolate?"

Xander grins back.

"Well, a few extra boys in the yard never hurt anybody. Unless one of them was Dennis the Menace."

He proffers his milkshake.

"Yep. Chocolate it is. Want a sip?"

She doesn't ask who Dennis the Menace is, but she does take the frosty glass from him and take a sip.

He eyes close momentarily as she mentally agrees with his description of the milkshake. "I need one of those. How do I get one?"

Xander slaps a hand down on the Bar, then winces and pats her surface gently.

He smiles sheepishly at Molly.

"Ask, and you will receive."

"Ah, yes, the magic that is Bar. There's usually someone tending when I'm here, and I tend to forget."

She orders a chocolate milkshake, and grins widely when one appears.

Shde turns back to Xander and says, "Thanks! You know, you look awfully familiar to me. Have we met before?"

Xander squints.

"Now that you mention it ..."

She reagrds him for a moment, then it dawns on her: "You were transparent at the time."

He stares.

And faceplams.

"Oh, God ... talk about putting my best foot forward."

A pause.

"Or maybe wearing my heart on my sleeve.

"You didn't ... see my heart, did you?"

"I think I'd remember something like that."

She sips at her milkshake lovingly.

"It doesn't seem to be a problem for you anymore."

It does his (opaque) heart good to see her enjoying that milkshake.

He takes a swig of his own.

"Nope. Recovered from it pretty well, all things considered."

A shifty glance her way.

"It ... may have affected my long-term memory, however. What's your name again?"

"Molly Prewett," she says with a grin, holding out her hand. "I'm glad I'm not the only one who'd forgotten. You are...?"

"Xander Harris," he says, shaking. "Good to remake your acquaintance, Molly."
