Too Late - BtVS, X/Andrew, UST, 100 words.

Too Late

Andrew looks like Hell. If Hell has sated debauchery all over its unshaven face. “Another rough night?” Xander attends with coffee for the figure half-slumped at the breakfast table.

Smudged eyes, taunting. “Almost rough enough.” The crush that died of Xander’s neglect, took with it the stumbling tongue, the whine. Camp is tempered to a smooth challenge. No more apologies.

A ruined t-shirt betrays a piercing, a tattoo or three, on a body honed and cultured. Peacock from the ashes of himself. Andrew goes out and takes his pick. Xander lies watching the clock, longing to turn it back.

Oh my, you just killed me. So beautiful and poignant in so few words. Never much of a Xandrew fan, but you might be changing my mind.

This kneeling business. You're not wearing *that* outfit at the moment, are you?

Thanks, Janet - and give in to the X/Andrew. The ridicule is worth it! *g*
