Part 1

The bronze was hopping that night.  Dingoes ate my Baby was playing on stage, and the dance floor was packed.  Three friends sat in a booth, watching the action, but not participating.

Cordelia ordered another drink; her fourth of the evening. 

Xander looked at his girlfriend with some concern- she was getting a little tipsy.  He’d been surprised when she’d produced a very realistic looking fake id, mumbling something about having gotten it on a trip to Cabo last summer.  She wouldn’t tell him why.

Willow , who was behaving strangely herself- even though she was just drinking coke- leaned up against the statuesque brunette and asked, Whatcha drinking Cordy?

Cordelia answered, “It’s called a screaming orgasm.”

“Whaddya say you and I go upstairs and I give you the real thing?” Willow asked in a not-so-quiet whisper. 

Xander looked over at his best friend, who was at that moment whispering in his girlfriend’s ear.  Again.  Willow !” He hissed, Would you please stop hitting on my girlfriend?”  He couldn’t understand her behavior.  They had been cheating on their respective partners for several weeks, now.  Well, not *cheating* cheating, just kissing.  …And some minor groping, but that’s all!  Now here was Willow , playing footsie with him under the table, while leaning up against Cordelia, and whispering sweet nothings in her ear!

The weirdest part?  Cordelia was giggling when she did it!

“Oh Xander- you know you’re invited too…” she said with a pants-clenching smile. 

For the love of God!  He was only human!  A seventeen year old male human.  A stiff breeze could give him a hardon.  This… this was killing him.

Willow ?  Are you drunk?” he asked, concerned.  He’d never seen her like this before in his life.

“Nope! Haven’t touched a drop… well I touched it, but I didn’t drink it!”

Xander’s brow furrowed, “whaddya mean?”

Willow just shook her head- “Nevermind.”  Suddenly she stood up.  “Finish that, Cordy- I wanna get out of here,” she commanded.  Turning to Xander, she said, “Let’s go somewhere that’s less… noisy.”

Xander’s eyes widened, “Uh, Wills?  You realize that’s your boyfriend’s band making that… noise.  Right?”

Willow grimaced.  “I don’t think I want Oz to be my boyfriend anymore.”

Cordelia knocked back her drink and stood, clutching Willow ’s shoulder when she started to sway a little.  “I don’t blame you,” she said.  “He’s too short.  And what’s with the whole ‘not talking guy’ thing.  That has to be annoying.”

Willow slipped one arm around Cordelia's waist and pulled the cheerleader against her hip.  “It can get old,” she agreed.  “Come on, Xander!  I wanna go!” she whined.

“Yeah!  Come on Xan- let’s blow this pop stand!” Cordy chimed in.

Xander ackwardly shifted, trying to adjust his erection so he could stand up without injuring himself.  “Gotta think of something un-sexy… um Giles making out with jenny in the library!  No, damnit-“ he thought.  Ms. Calendar was too hot, even kissing Giles.  “Giles kissing Angel in the library!” that worked.  His erection instantly began to subside.  He was able to stand after a moment, now if he could just get that mental image out of his head before he puked…

They ended up at Xander’s house.  It was closest, and his parents happened to be out of town visiting some of his white trash relatives.  “God, I’m glad I’m old enough not to have to go on that trip anymore!” he thought. 

Somehow they ended up in his basement, going through a stack of playboy’s that his dad kept ‘hidden’ in a box next to the dryer.  He and Willow had found it years ago when they were playing hide and seek.  At the time, she’d wigged out at the sight of naked women.  He, of course had treasured the find, often finding uses for the contents.

So here he was, living what was probably every teenage male’s fantasy.  Two seriously hot women, who had their inhibitions at an all-time low, thumbing through some porn and flirting- with each other, as well as him.  Finally, Cordelia got up to go to the bathroom and he demanded an explanation.

“Ok, Will- spill!  What the hell is going on with you tonight?”

Willow sighed dramatically.  She knew Xander wasn’t going to like the answer.

“I was sitting in the computer lab after school…”

**flashback**

“What’s the matter Willow , you look down.” Ms. Calendar asked her favorite pupil.  She had noticed Willow moping around for the past couple of days.  “Problems with you and Oz?” she guessed.  This looked like love-life moping.

Willow was disconcerted by her mentor’s sagaciousness, but she had to talk to someone-  “Oz is great!  He’s nice, and kind and…” she trailed off, feeling bad about what she was doing to him, how she was betraying him when he was such a great guy.

“But you’re not sure he’s ‘the one’?” Ms Calendar asked, knowingly.

Willow nodded her head sadly.

Willow , why don’t you try some of the centering drills we’ve been practicing.  You might be able to answer your own question a little better if you were able to focus your mind more clearly,” she suggested

Willow was desperate to try anything by that point, so she agreed.  She went home to give it a try.

**end flashback**

Xander once again found himself furrowing his brow in confusion.  “So you’re acting like this… because you focused your mind?”

Willow blushed and confessed, “Well, no.  Not really.”

Xander crossed his arms over his chest and just looked at her, waiting for the other shoe to drop.

“Well, that didn’t help at all, so… I remembered that I’d seen this spell…”

Xander shouted, “ Willow !  A Spell?  Do we remember what happened last time you tried to cast a spell? Your fish…”

“My fish are just fine, thank you very much!” Willow quickly interjected.

“How can you tell?” Xander demanded angrily. 

Willow deflated at that.  “Well… I can see the ripples when they eat the food I drop in…” she said.

“But you can’t actually see the fish.” Xander said flatly.

“Well, not so much…” Willow admitted.  She quickly went on, “But this wasn’t that kind of spell!  It wasn’t designed to change anything, just show what was already there.”

Xander groaned and collapsed on the couch, his hands covering his face as Willow excitedly told him about the spell.

“It was really cool, Xander!  I filled a silver bowl with red Bordeaux , and I had six candles, three the color of the bowl, and three the color of the wine, in a circle around me.  And then I did the chant and then I anointed myself with the wine on my head and my heart.  Ooo! And the whole ritual had to be done skyclad!” she babbled.  “You would have enjoyed that part.”

“Skyclad?” Xander asked, confused.

“Clad only in sky,” Willow explained.  “You know- dressed only in air…?”

Xander’s eyes widened as he caught the picture.  Mr. Happy was suddenly very attentive!  It was as if it was saying, “Naked Willow?  Rubbing wine on her chest?  Yes please!  More even!”

“And this spell was supposed to…” he asked.

“Oh, it’s supposed to reveal my true desires.”

Xander looked up at his best friend and asked, “You cast a spell to help you decide between me and Oz”

Willow nodded.

“But instead of showing *you* your true desire…”

Willow nodded again.  “I think it’s revealing me to my true desire.”

Finishing the thought, Xander said, “And your true desire is me; and…”

Willow looked over his head at the stairs.  She whispered, “Cordelia Chase!”

Xander, seeing the look on his friend’s face, jumped up and whirled around to see… “Eeep!”

Cordelia stood at the foot of the stairs, looking at her boyfriend and his best friend.  She was wearing a smirk… and nothing else.
