A/N this one is subject to change. I feel pretty blah over how it turned out. Maybe it's just because the next one is the end.
I don’t understand, Tara; isn’t tomorrow all about the girl power?” Xander asked.

“You realize that doesn’t make sense, right? You’re just trying to keep the one-eyed guy out of the fray. Wouldn’t Nixon be a better choice?” he goaded. “You could draw on her slayerness.”
“ Kennedy was nearby, it was an emergency. You’re such a guy!”
“Sorry, can’t change that.” He didn’t sound regretful
“Help me with this, Xander; don’t be stupid.”
“ I love you, but I should be fighting, not holding your hand.”
“You won’t be holding my hand, well, technically you will but... Wait. What did you say?”
“I love you. I know you don’t feel the same. I’m not good enough.”
“This is a huge spell and you make me stronger.” She threaded her fingers through his to demonstrate.
“We dovetail, that’s a carpentry metaphor.”
Tara laughed. “Dovetail; that sounds sexy. Are you helping me remake the world tomorrow?”
“That’s some honey-do list.”
“From here on in they’ll just get easier then.”
