WAGER
"You're kidding. She actually fell for that clumsy routine?" Riley said, snorting in laughter. "Hey, knock it off. I think they'd look cute together. Plus, what could be better than our best friends dating?" "I agree. I just can't believe she bought that." "Love is blind. Well, lust is blind." Buffy corrected. "You do know that Graham won't make a move don't you?" Riley asked, a smile on his face. "Yes he will." Buffy insisted. "I've known him for years. He may be what you girls consider a hottie, but he isn't aware of that. He's shy and does not approach women. It probably scared him silly bumping into her" Riley laughed. "Oh, you..you...you poop head." Buffy exclaimed. "I'll help him." Riley laughed even louder, "That I got to see. You'd scare him silly with the length of your skirts. No way he's making a move." "We'll see" Buffy said, her competitive spirit rising. "Buffy, love, Willow would make a move sooner than Graham." At that Buffy laughed. "Not likely. She thinks she's not good enough for him. Talk about running scared." Riley stopped laughed, "Hey. Willow could too make a move. She's cute. She's cuddly. She's smart. Hell, he already wants to get to know her better." "I stand firm. There is no way in hell Willow would make a move before Graham." Riley smiled as his competitive spirit was piqued. "Want to bet?" "You're on, Soldier boy. What are we betting?" Riley shrugged, "I don't know. Money?" Buffy chuckled, shaking her head, "Where's your daring, Riley?" She thought a minute then snapped her fingers, "I got it." "Well?" She smiled, "The loser has to act out the winner's deepest fantasy." Riley felt a chill go down his spine, "Fantasy?" "Scared?" she taunted, smirking at him. "Not so sure of Willow now are you?" "Fine. You're on. We get a week. First one to make a move is declared a winner. BUT, no telling our chosen participants about the others interest in them. No outside help either. Just us and them. We want this fair." "Agreed. Shake?" Buffy stuck her hand out. Her mind already thinking of the most delicious fantasies. She hoped Graham would be as willing as she hoped. "Shake" Riley grasped her hand, his mind flashing to several of his more vivid dreams. He hoped his faith in Willow wouldn't let him down. ~ * ~ * ~ * ~
