Cordelia

"Cordy... I... You..." Xander fumbled for words.

With a wicked smile Cordelia leaned in and slowly siddling herself against Xander, wrapping her arms around his shoulders, going out of her way to press her breasts into him, "You luuuuv me."

Xander swallowed hard and nodded his head. Ignoring everything and anything but Cordelia at that moment. He couldn't screw this up. He had to get it right. So he said what he knew he should say, "I do. I love you."

Cordelia craned her head in and slowly, chastely pressed her lips against his in a very quick kiss. She pulled back, "I luv you too." The darted back in with another quick, chaste kiss.

Blinking at how out of character it was for Cordy to just admit to emotions like that Xander realized that this whole wishing thing was surprisingly coming out in his favor.

Laying her head on his shoulder Cordelia motioned with her hand at his new wish granting genie, Anya. "So... what all can she do?"

"Uh, everything? Almost anything?" Xander answered distractedly as he slowly wrapped his arm around Cordelia.

With a little 'tsk' Cordelia grabbed his hand and placed it on her butt, then pushed her tush back against his hand. Getting the picture Xander grabbed hold of Cordelia's ass. With a very happy purr Cordelia crooned, "There we go."

It did feel good, he had to admit, Cordelia had a wonderfully rounded ass. It was just surreal that he, Xander Harris, was getting to grab it out in the open, when even back in the day when she was most affectionate Cordelia would never have allowed him to manhandle her posterior in public.

This was a strange new world.

"Can she make us rich?" Cordelia asked.

"Do you need to be richer?" Xander asked, then winced as that might be a little to combative a thing to say. But when Cordelia shrugged, he guessed it wasn't.

"Mmm, well, Daddy has been having a lot of meetings with his accountant and his lawyer... Daddy might be in trouble with the IRS." Cordelia said in a soft voice, checking to make sure that no one was around to hear them.

"Whoa." Not only was he surprised to hear the mighty Chase family might be in financial trouble but also that Cordelia would openly admit to it without having to be tortured first.

"You dont have to." Cordelia rushed out, patting his chest with a placating hand. "She's your genie and those are your wishes. You don't have to share."

Xander blinked and looked incredulously down at Cordelia. A selfless statement from the woman who almost defined self centered? This was, indeed, a strange new world.

Giving her butt a good squeeze Xander reassured her, "Well, mmmmaybe for a select few I might make a wish or two."

With a giggle Cordelia lifted her head from his shoulder and smiled up at him. She smiled at him and sing songed, "Becuz u luv me!"

Xander nodded his head, "Because i love you."

Inside his own head Xander wondered if he was going to end up loving this new Cordelia more than the old Cordelia.

"So what are you going to wish for now?" Cordelia asked.
