From: ingrid29@juno.com (Ingrid E Stanton)
Subject: BUFFYFIC: "Reunion" (2/?) by Ingrid
DISCLAIMER: The characters of Cordelia and Xander
are the property of Joss Whedon, Mutant Enemy,
Sandollar Productions, and The Warner Brothers
Network, and are used without permission. The
author claims no rights to these characters.
SUMMARY: Thanks to some PRESSURE from certain
individuals who shall remain nameless, I'm sending
out another part. Just so you know, you're all going
to be held responsible for my MENTAL BREAKDOWN!
Anyway... =)
Welcome to my new story. This one might
be a tad difficult to understand at first, since it takes place
ten years into the future, and IÆm not telling you whatÆs
happened in advance. IÆm going to reveal that as time
goes on in the story. I love to get feedback, except when
my mailbox explodes, which is often, but send it anyway!
My address is Ingrid29@juno.com. If you donÆt get this,
thatÆs because you havenÆt read the other part. If you want
to get this, ask me for it!

"Reunion," by Ingrid
Part Two: "Prophesies"

"Did you find it yet?"
"Give me a second, Cordelia, I just got down here!"
"Hurry!"
"Okay, okay. What the hell?"
"WhatÆs the matter?"
"Please tell me this is one of those large-type books."
A tall, well-built man emerged from the basement door
carrying a dusty book the size of a large anvil. His dark
hair and eyes were striking; his features handsome.
The dark relaxed jeans and tan button-down shirt made
him almost unidentifiable to anyone who might have
known him in high school.
"Here. ItÆs really dusty." He placed the book on the table
without a sound, sat on the chair next to her and put his
head in his hands.
"SheÆs still having the nightmares?"
The brunette leafed through the heavy volume. "Yes. This
is the third time sheÆs told me, but I suspect there have
been other times." She landed on a page with particularly
small print, and grabbed her wire framed glasses in order
to pursue it further.
"Damn. Latin. ItÆs definitely a discussion of the multiple
interpretations of the prophecy, but this is going to take
quite a while to translate." Xander stood up and patted
her on the back.
"Goodnight," he sighed, and turned to leave.
He was nearing the bedroom door when she finally
turned around. "Wait!"
She stood up and walked over to where he stood. "I didnÆt
say I was going to translate it tonight, Xander."
"I just thought-"
"I know IÆve been working late lately. YouÆve been great-
so patient. Thank you." Her gentle smile faded. "YouÆd think
after watching for this long, IÆd be good at it."
"Hey," he interrupted, pushing the long hair back from her
face, "You are."
She smiled again, and looked at him as if she was seeing
him for the first time. Her eyes finally settled to rest on his.
She touched her lips to his gently, and chuckled as he
deepened the kiss and wrapped his arms around her in
a bear hug.
Suddenly serious, she ran her fingers along his jaw.
"I love you."
One of the few times sheÆd said it though theyÆd been married
for a couple of years now. He knew it, but somehow the words
touched him more than anything else. Perhaps it came from
being a writer.
Sweeping her up into his arms, he carried her from the room.
She smiled, and rested her head on his chest.
