"I can walk." Xander said lowly, avoiding looking at Frank

“Damn,” Frank grinned, getting his keys nonetheless and catching up to Xander. “You don’t waste time, do you?”

"I'm not gonna stay to argue with her." Xander sounded rather exhausted and stared at the ground. "She can either trust me, or not."

“Cass ain’t exactly the trusting type.” Frank shrugged, playing with the key. “Listen, if you want to stay and have a drink, have something to eat, even spend the night, you’re welcome to it.”

Xander sighed, raking his fingers through his hair nervously, a habit he'd kicked, until now, that is. "I guess.... a drink can't hurt."

“Great.” Frank grinned, heading back towards the living room. “I hate drinking alone. You want whiskey? ‘Cause everything else’s in the kitchen.”

"Whikey's fine..." Xander said slowly. This would be a bad night to get drunk, he reminded himself, but he could handle a fair bit before he'd have to cut himself off

“A’right.” Frank grinned, tossing his keys at the couch before pouring and handing Xand a glass.

Xander frowned, staring at the glass as he took it, already lost deep in thought

“You know what the second thing Cass said when she woke up?” Frank smiled, staring at his own glass before taking a drink. “She said ‘what the f**k did you do to your hair’.”
He chuckled, swirling the whiskey idly. “After all the years she spent bitching about it, I thought she’d be glad to see it gone.”

"she does't take change kindly..." Xander said with a ghost of a smile, hand returning to his own shortened hair

“Can you blame her?” Frank sighed. “We all had it pretty good there for awhile.”

“Back in Texas?” Frank raised an eyebrow. “Hell, yeah. We did whatever the f**k we wanted, no consequences. We were happy. Well, I was happy, Cass was happy.”

"We were young." Xander said sadly. "We all had to grow up eventually."

“Doesn’t mean we can’t still be happy.” Frank shrugged. “I’m happy, and Cass… Well, she’ll adjust. She’ll be happy too.”

"If she wants to be..." Xander grumbled, then drained the glass. "Tell me about Gabe..."

“Well,” Frank shrugged, refilling Xander’s glass. “He’s six, a little shy around strangers, stubborn as hell. His favorite color’s green, first word was ‘no’.”
“He looks a hell of a lot like you, but he’s got Cass’ eyes.”

“Yeah, I’ve been meaning to ask you,” Frank glanced at him, voice sincere. “What’s it like to get someone back, you know, from the dead?”
