Summary: Four girls...one pair of pants...magic.


'I'd like to think that fate had a hand in what happened that summer. That it was the pants destiny to find us. Where they came from and why they chose us? Well, that will always be a mystery. But perhaps that was part of their miracle. That they sensed in that moment how much we needed them; how much we needed some little bit of faith to hold onto when it seemed like everything we believed in was about to slip away.

But wait a minute; I'm getting ahead of myself. We'd been a foursome for as long as I could remember. In fact we were a foursome before we were born. Our mothers met at a prenatal aerobics class. They really didn't have anything in common except their due dates. The first one out of the gate was Buffy and the rest of us followed within the week. Buffy liked to take charge and sometimes that worked in our favor. That's how it always was with us: give and take. But mostly give. We were there for each other to understand things that no one else in the world could. There were some things we would never make sense of and we were there for those too. We were there for the things we couldn't face alone or the ones we didn't want to face at all. Together it was as if we formed one single, complete person: Wild, unstoppable Buffy, Shy, beautiful Tara, Anya the passionate one and me, Dawn, the rebel and the writer. We were sixteen and had never been apart and all that was about to change.'
