[Fanfic] BTVS; Xander/Andrew; "Cabin Fever" (PG-13)
Title: Cabin Fever
Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Pairing(s): Eventual Xander/Andrew
Author: Dai
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: Bad language, Kennedy-bashing
Summary: Lost and stuck in the school bus for over a week, some of the scoobies are getting a little... odd. (Xander's POV)
Author's Notes: I suddenly had the urge to write a fanfic. So I've been working on a Buffy fanfic that (I hope) will turn into a Xandrew (Xander/Andrew). I don't have all of it done yet, but here's what I got so far.
It's amazing how you can be around people your whole life, yet you never notice their unique quirky habits until you're stuck in a school bus with them for over a week.
Giles, for one. I never noticed how often he really cleans his glasses before. And Dawn. She's always opening her journal, most of the time without writing in it or even looking down at it.
And then... There's Andrew. He can't sit still at all. He always has to be moving, whether it's tapping his fingers or clicking his tongue, and someone, eventually, will always yell at him to stop being annoying. Then he'll just... Smile innocently and nod. But then, after a few moments, he'll just start doing something else equally annoying. And, most of the time, I don't think he even realizes he's doing it...
This is one of those times.
"Andrew! I swear, you scratch that seat one ... more ... time!"
Andrew obediently took his nails away from the vinyl bus seat in front of him, blinking rapidly at Kennedy's give-you-hell expression. "Sorry."
"Hey, Ken'. Lay off him, will you? He can't help it. He's just ... hyperactive," I point out, giving Andrew a sympathetic smile and getting an embarrassed blush in return.
"But it's so annoying!" Kennedy leaned against her seat, arms crossed. Willow continued to stare out the window.
"Well, you whinin' about it ain't makin' it any better," stated Faith, crossly.
"Could all of you be quiet for a moment, please?" Giles looked back at them from the driver's seat, rubbing at his glasses with a handkerchief. Buffy stood next to him, trying to make sense of the map.
Kennedy grumbled and shot me a glare. She hissed under her breath. "I know why you're sticking up for dorkwad, Captain One-Eye."
Ouch. Nothing like a good ol' pirate joke to pick up the spirits.
"All that kissing your ass he's been doing finally took effect, didn't it? You like him now, don't you? That's it, right? You and the nerd are an item now?"
"Kennedy! My God, what has gotten into you?" Willow stared at her, horrorstruck. "What on Earth has possessed you to be such a goddamn bitch?"
"May I suggest... Cabin fever?" This comment earned me many angry looks and I abrubtly shut my big, fat mouth.
That's it so far. Comments are appreciated!
