Faith's POV
The guard has finally wandered away from the door. To go jerk himself off probably. I don't give a fuck though. I just want in. I flick my cigarette into the dirt and make a dash for it. One, two, three and I'm in. Fuck yeah!
Time to find the babe. Let's see. I know she's in the lock up, a super nut case from what I hear. Doesn't frickin matter though. I gotta see her up close. There is somethin' about her. I've been drawn to her ever since I started workin' here. Heard stories, yunno.
But what really got me was the first time I saw her. She was being dragged through the ward I work in, on the way to somewhere else I guess. And of course she caught my eye, `cause yunno, the girl is just so... grrrr.
Anyways, she starts callin' my name, like she knows me or somethin'. Freaky weird, `cause there's no way the little chick could know me. But there she was, all yelling, "Faith! Faith! Help me please!"
I wanted to punch the orderly when he jabbed her with the needle. The poor little blonde just screamed and fainted. Me and one of the nurses on my ward ran over. I caught the girl before she hit the floor. She was so cute and helpless. I lifted her up, but the dickhead orderly took her from me. I shouldn't have let him. Fuck, I almost didn't.
There was somethin' so familiar about her. I felt... damn... I dunno. But I do know it was `cause of somethin' more than her just being a babe. It was like I got this deja vu feelin' or somethin'. Hell! Whatever! Now I'm being a whack job!
Gonna just see her again, up close. Don't know why, but I got to.
It's not worth losin' a job over a mental patient, is it? That's what I've been wondering since that incident. Shit, it's been a week. And here I am doing just that. Risking my ass to sneak in after my shift, and get near that little blonde again. I just can't get her cries outta my head or that beautiful face.
Ugh! Okay, what room is she in?
Buffy's POV
Have to concentrate... I've got to get out of here... where is here? I feel fuzzy. Hehehe... good fuzzy... I've been laying here looking at the shapes on the wall for hours or days. I'm not sure anymore... waiting for vampires to get me. It would be so easy right now. I'm strapped to the bed. That's what they do to me. They tie me to the bed and stick needles in me... needles that make me fuzzy... funny... and sleepy. Hehehe...
The door is all creaky. Oh god, someone is coming in my room. Who is it? I can't get loose. My hands feel all sweaty. Yuck! I guess that doesn't matter, because I'll be dead soon. Will it hurt? Please let be painless.
The creature is in my room now. I want to scream. But I know I can't. That bedtime shot makes it impossible to scream or even talk... I can barely think. It's coming closer. Can almost see it. It's... it's... FAITH! Faith's here! I knew it was her! It's Faith. She's come to save me... or kill me.
I can only stare as she gets closer. Suddenly, I'm afraid. We weren't exactly on good terms. In fact, she was jail. How did she get out? It doesn't matter now, I guess. Because she's going to kill me. I'm trying to scream. I think. Not sure... anymore.
And then she's leaning close and whispering to me. "Hey there... Shhhh... it's okay. I'm not going to hurt you."
Faith is smiling at me. That has to be a positive. At least she isn't doing the killing thing. The killing of me that is.
Faith looks so incredible.... tough, sexy Faith. Was she always this beautiful? Oh Faith... I missed you. I can feel tears on my cheeks. Am I crying? I must be.
Her chocolaty eyes are filled with sympathy as she reaches down and wipes my tears away. She is talking so kindly to me. I'm safe now... and happy. Faith's here! Oh Faith...
Faith's POV
Frick, it was bitch gettin' past that last guard. But now I'm standing here inside her room... I hope! It's kinda dark. I'm just waiting for my eyes to adjust. I think that's her. Oh yeah, it's her alright. That weird tingling has started. I squint over at the bed, and I see that she's staring at me.
My heart is poundin' in my chest all painful like. Damn, what the hell am I doin'?! I start creeping over to the bed. Her pretty eyes are locked on me now. Wow! She's cuter than I remembered... way foxy.
Uh-oh! She's lookin' like she might scream. I better say somethin' quick. "Hey there." Smooth Faith... real smooth! Ugh! Guess my charm isn't doin' it for her. She still has a worried look... wait, not worried... terrified. Oh shit! I feel terrible. She's all scared.
So I lean close and whisper. "Shhh... it's okay. I'm not going to hurt you." Then I try workin' my best smile. It seems to calm her. Of course, I just stand there and stare like a moron. Takes me a few to realize that she's cryin'. Crap... what now?! Damn, this poor little chick... she must be really messed up.
But then it's weird `cause I think she's crying happy tears. I reach over and wipe them away. Yeah, bad ass Faith wipin' some girlie's tears... too funny! Oh hell, doesn't matter though. `Cause all I can really think of is how bad I wanna kiss her... and maybe that'll help.
Go for it, I always say. So that's what I do. I lean in real slow-like... an' her eyes get all big, `cause she knows what I'm about to do. Yep, Faith stealin' kisses... nothin' new there.
But this is different... somehow. She's different. And the kiss... it's great, all romantic and shit. Took a second but she kissed me back. And I'll just say Wow! and Wow! I could still feel her lips when we separated.
She has this friggin' adorable look on her face... kinda glazed with a faint smile. Ooh baby, yeah... Faithy did it again. She digs it; I can tell.
"I just wanted to see you... yunno? Make sure that you're okay." I pull down the blanket slowly. She doesn't say nothin'. She just watches me as I start unbuttoning her pajama top. Hey, what's this shit! She's tied to the bed! That's fucked up!
I quickly undo the restraints. I mean, she can't be that nuts! Right?!
Wanna make sure she stays calm though. So I start talkin' real soft to her.
"I take care of my friends, babe. I'll help you. It'll be okay. We'll be friends... good friends... special friends... yunno..." I smile suggestively and wiggle my eyebrows playfully. Trying to be charming. Hey don't laugh; it usually works! But... Fuck, what does she start doin'?! Cryin'! Oh man... what'd I say wrong?
"Hey, none of that. Shhhh... Don't cry." My hands are shaking as I pull down her bottoms. "I'm not gonna hurt you. I swear. I jus' wanna... jus' wanna been near you for sec', okay?... Is this okay?" I'm breathing really hard as I look at her.
Damn, I want her... even if that makes me a scumbag. I think of my friends in Boston givin' me shit for seducing some girl in a mental ward. Faith's sunk to a new low! I shake it off... don't need that shit in my head now... `cause I know I can't stop... I'm too far gone. That tingling she gives me is frickin inferno at this point.
I glance up at her and she's stopped crying. Good... that was making me feel too damn guilty! I know I still shouldn't but... but I do it anyway. I start running my hands over her body.
It's not so totally wrong, is it? I untied her. She can push me away if she wants... I'd stop, but she doesn't. She lets me slip my hand between her legs. Her eyes flutter as she closes them and softly whispers, "Faith."
How does she know my name?! Does it matter?! No way! Not at the moment! I climb onto the bed beside her.
My fingers are carefully exploring her soft little pussy. Mmmm... perfect. She's sooo friggin' wet... they just slide lightly over her clitoris until she's moaning and whimpering. Oh yes, gorgeous... Faith's gonna make you cum... I promise. My juices are really going now. Hell, I'm panting as hard as her as I slip two fingers gently inside her. She's wayyyy ready.
Oh god, she moans my name again. What a turn-on! All of it... the risk of being caught... not knowing her but her knowing me... ahhh... it's mysterious... or adventurous or some shit like that.
So there I am sucking on this prissy little blonde's tits and pumping my fingers in and out while she's clinging to me and begging, "Faith please... oh yes... yes... please...oh god, yes. Pleasseee... Faaaaith!" It's frickin' hot, yunno!
I gotta see all of her up close while I can... so I crawl down her body. She has such a pretty pussy; I can't resist removing fingers and just using my mouth. Whoa... she's comes almost instantly. Mmmm... and she's delicious. I hang out between her legs for as long as I dare... those fuckin' guards will be doin' their rounds soon. I gotta get my ass outta here before they catch me, and yeah... I kinda want a cigarette.
But it's cool. `Cause I know I'll come back. Hell, first chance I get. There's just something about... and yeah, it doesn't hurt that she's so sweet and pretty. Besides this little chick really digs me. Faithy knows these things... experience, yunno.
I make my way back up her body with kisses. My skin still tingles, and there's this low humming in my head... nice... comforting. It's totally bizarre `cause I know it has somethin' to do with her. I lift my head and smile. She has the loveliest expression on her face... peaceful... no more frightened little blonde... just happy.
Holy shit! Those glittering green eyes, that slightly upturned nose, her pouty lips and smile... she looks like a little angel. Fuck, suddenly it's like an electrical jolt... almost hurts. I freeze as it totally occurs to me - Faith, you do know this girl!!!
Faith's POV
I grab her tiny wrist and turn it in my hand so I can read the hospital bracelet. Only her first initial and last name is written on it... B. Summers. Huh?
I can hear the guard's footsteps. It's no biggie though. I still have a few minutes; he's not on this corridor yet. Yep, my freaky good hearing comes in handy sometimes.
I look back at the little blonde to see that she's studying me real careful-like. It makes me grin, `cause it's way too cute... she's too cute... wicked cute! Damn, I can't get enough of looking at her.
Then I remember I need to ask her something. "How did you know my name?"
"Faith. You're Faith." She says it with a dreamy smile. Ugh! I gotta repeat myself.
"Yeah. How'd ya know?"
She looks really confused. Screw it! This is goin' nowhere. Guess I'll have to figure it out myself. Shouldn't be that hard, since now I'm sure that I know her too... somehow.
After a quick kiss, I climb off of the bed. "It's okay, B. We'll talk about it later."
Time to go. So I hurry and pull on her pajama bottoms and rebutton her top. "See... as good as new."
I stand there debating about these friggin' restraints. I don't wanna tie her back up; she can't protect herself like this. But shit, if I leave her untied they'll know someone was in here. Can't have that! They might move her or somethin', and I jus' gotta see her again.
I gotta... as in I think I'll frickin' die if I don't. Whoa! Where'd that come from? Is crazy something you can catch? The thought makes me snicker, but then I look back over at B. Awwww, shit!
"Sorry." I whisper as I do up the restraints.
"Nooo." It's a soft plea that I barely hear.
"Babe, I'm sorry... I gotta or I won't be able to come and see you again. You understand, right?"
Tears are rolling down her cheeks. "No...no... please don't leave me here."
Fuck, she's tearin' my heart out. I wanna take her with me. Suddenly I'm havin' these loony ideas. Ideas on how to get this little chick out the door. GET REAL FAITH!
I mean hell, I could get her outta here. But take her with me?... and to where?!!!
The footsteps are getting closer. The guard is coming down this corridor. Dang it! I can still get out, but I can't leave her crying. It'll kill me to leave her crying like this. Ugh!
She has this hopeless expression... like her whole world is ending. What do I do?!
"Shhhhh... don't cry please. Look, if ya stop crying, I promise I'll get ya outta here... okay? Please, B... I can't have you being so sad. I'll help you, alright? I'll get ya outta here, if that's what you need me to do."
She sniffles a few times and nods her pretty little head.
"That's better." I give her a big kiss.
Her voice is so small as she tries for reassurance, "You'll keep your promise? You'll come back for me and take me away from this place?"
"Hey this is Faith talking. Of course, I'll keep my promise. See." I move my fingers over my chest and say, "Cross my heart an' hope to die."
"Noooo. Don't say that! You can't say that!" She sounds panicked.
"Awww Twinkie, it's just an expression." I kiss away her frown and get up.
I really have to leave now; that jackal rental cop is just around the corner. I can tell `cause at this point I can smell where he's at. Yeah, I got abnormally keen senses. But that shit works for me so it's cool.
I stick my head out the door and take a peek. The coast is clear. I turn back. "Until next time, B. Summers." I give her a big smile and blow her a kiss. Then I'm gone.
PART 5 - Our Slayer Connection
Buffy's POV
It's so good to see her. Now I know I'm not crazy. Standing in front of me is another slayer. I can feel the tingles all the way to my toes. And that hum...mmm... it's that slayer radar. It's real... all of it. I'm a slayer and so is Faithy. I want to laugh but I'm too busy crying.
The only thing that isn't right is this place... and I'm trapped. But Faith will save me. I know it.
She's wiping away my tears so tenderly. Oh Faith...
I can see it in her eyes. She feels it too... our slayer connection. How could she not?! Right now there's some serious sparkage. Ahhhh... gotta love it!
What's Faith thinking, I wonder? She has this look on her face... Oh god, I think she's going to kiss me. Uhhhh... okay, I guess. And her lips are on mine.
Ohhhhh! Yes, definitely okayyyyyy! That kiss was so soft, silky and... Faithy. Yum! hehe! I feel funny... all gooey inside.
I want to ask Faith if kissing me makes her feel gooey too. But she's telling me something. I need to pay attention. Hmm? What's Faith saying? Something about wanting to see me. She wanted to make sure that I was okay. Ohhh Faithy...
What's Faith doing? hehe! Silly, silly Faith... Is she taking off my pajamas? Umm...Okay. I just watch her. Is she going to get naked too? Funny... flustered Faith. hehehe!
She's untying me, but I don't move. I don't want to because Faith is touching me so gently. It feels nice. I like it. Her hand has slipped lower and now she stroking between my legs.
I really really like this... ahhhhhh... more please. I spread my legs further apart and close my eyes as her fingers slide over me. "Faith."
She's on the bed with me... kissing my breasts. Mmmmm... she's moving her hand faster. I can feel her fingers inside of me. Oh! Oh...oh yes... I want to hump her hand.
I need it. Oh, I sooooo need this. "Faith please... oh yes... yes... please...oh god, yes. Pleasseeee... Faaaaith!"
She lifts her head and gives me that smile... that perfect Faith grin. The one that makes me quiver. Then she crawls down my body and I feel her lips on me where her fingers once were.
I can hardly believe that that's Faith doing that... FAITH. Faith between my legs... licking me. Oh gawdddd... I arch up and her mouth covers my pussy as I shudder... sooooo good. It's all sooooo... mmmmm.
I feel sleepy.
The next thing I'm aware of is her warm breath tickling. Hehehehe! Faith's tickling my privates... feels funny. Oh... oh... now she's licking me some more. It's making me all gushy and squishy... and floaty again. Hurray!
Oh, she stopped. Why'd you stop, Faith? She is over me and smiling big. I think I must be smiling too... I feel all smiley. Smiley and gooey... hehehe. Oh Faith... I missed you!
Uh-oh! Faith is making a strange face. She grabs my wrist and turns it over. Hehe! What's Faithy doing?
Oops! Faith asked me something, but I don't know what. Her name, did she ask her name? Hehehehe... Faith's funny. I tell her. "Faith. You're Faith." She seems annoyed. Huh?
Oh no, she's getting up! No! Don't go! I watch her while she puts my pajamas back on me. No... please.
Faith is saying that she's sorry.
"Noooo."
"Babe, I'm sorry... I gotta or I won't be able to come and see you again. You understand, right?"
I feel like crying. "No...no... please don't leave me here." This is awful! She's going to go away. What if she doesn't come back?! What if I'm stuck here forever?!!!
"Shhhhh... don't cry please. Look, if ya stop crying, I promise I'll get ya outta here... okay? Please, B... I can't have you being so sad. I'll help you, alright? I'll get ya outta here, if that's what you need me to do."
She called me B. I missed hearing that so much. B. I'm B. And Faith is coming back for her B. I'm good with that and nod to let her know that is what I need. I'll try not to cry anymore, I don't want to Faith to be upset.
She seems happy and kisses me again. But I have to ask... I have to make sure. "You'll keep your promise? You'll come back for me and take me away from this place?"
"Hey this is Faith talking. Of course, I'll keep my promise." That makes me smile; it's so Faith. But then she does something horrible. She runs her finger over her heart and says. "See. Cross my heart an' hope to die."
OH NO! Why'd she say that?! "Noooo. Don't say that! You can't say that!" She can't make jokes like that! It gives me the wiggins.
"Awww Twinkie, it's just an expression." She laughs leaning close to give me a hug and a big yummy kiss.
Then Faith is at the door ready to make a dash for it. It surprises me when she turns back. "Until next time, B. Summers." Giving me that perfect smile and blowing me a kiss... Oh Faith... She's gone.
A few minutes pass or is it hours. I'm looking at the shapes on the wall and wondering... Was Faith really here?
Faith's POV
"Xander, come on... pleeeaaseee."
"Ugh! I could lose my job."
I smile because I know I have him. He'll help me find out about the little blonde... my B.
"What's her name?" He's holding a pen, ready to write.
"B. Summers."
"Quit that smile. I'll see what I can do... that's all Faith. No promises, got it?"
"Got it." But I'm still grinnin' ear to ear.
"So do you wanna go get a drink. I've had a hell of day."
"Drink alcohol? Is that a real question?! Hell yeah! When it comes to drinking, I'm you're girl... you know that." We both laugh as he heads over to the pay phone.
"Hang on let me call Willow."
Buffy's POV
I've been waiting for Faith. When will she come back for me. She promised so I know she'll back... if she can. Oh god, I hope nothing terrible has happened to her.
"Owwww!" They've just stabbed another needle in my arm. I feel woozy....
Faith's POV
"C'mon Red. Pull up the file." I'm hunched over Xander's friend and now my new friend. She keeps staring at the computer screen but frowns. Guess she's doesn't care for the nickname.
I shrug it off. She'll get use to it. I give everyone a nickname... an annoying habit I suppose. That and smoking. Which reminds me, I need a cigarette. "Be right back." I hold up the pack so they know where I'm going.
Clear night. Totally kick-ass California weather. It suits me as I lean up against a tree enjoying my cig.
"Hey there, luscious."
I glance over to see some bleach blonde Billy Idol wanna-be sauntering up. He gives me this cheesy grin and I just roll my eyes.
"Get lost."
"Hey now, no need to be unfriendly here. I jus' wanna bum a cig." He cocks his head to the side, trying to look cute. Doesn't realize that he's barking up the wrong tree.
"Yeah whatever." I toss him the pack. "Take one and then scamper off. I've already filled my loser quota."
He snorts and plucks a cigarette out. "Thanks." Adding under his breath. "Slayer."
"What?!" I push off the tree and step in front of him. "WHAT'D YOU CALL ME, YOU FREAK?! You wanna start somethin', do ya?!" I grab him by the collar in annoyance and tug hard. Feeling satisfied when he squeaks in pain.
"No... don't want trouble with you, Slayer. Jus' tryin' to help, really."
"Slayer? The name is Faith, you jackass." I've lifted him off the ground slightly. Goddamn, I'm stronger than I thought. It's too funny `cause he looks a bit scared.
"Faith! What's going on?!"
I drop the guy and turn toward Xander who's on the porch looking worried. "Nothin'. Just finishing my smoke and chatting with..." When I look back, bleach boy is gone. Now that's two stops past strange. Fuck! This Sunndydale is one weird ass town.
Buffy's POV
I'm counting the tiles in the ceiling trying to clear my head. I want to stay awake. What if Faith comes to see me tonight... I have to be awake! Oops, I lost count again. Hehehehe! My bedtime shot's the funnest one. Where's Faith? It's been two days... or maybe three. I don't know.
Faith please, please come back. Tonight I hope. Tonight. But she doesn't.
Maybe she was never here...
Faith's POV
"Did you get it?" I'm standing outside freezing my ass off.
"Yeah, here. Do I get a hug?" Xander's giving me one of his goofy grins.
"Better than that, babe!" I lay a big ole kiss on him as I grab the folder. "I'll call you. I gotta go."
"Visiting the little blonde?"
I give him a wink and race to the parking lot.
"And you're the sane one?!!! Faith, listen to me... you're just going to get yourself into a whole new world of trouble. Faith! Hey Faith!" He's still standing there calling after me. "Are you sure she's worth it?!"
I don't answer but I'm smiling `cause I know. And I've never been more sure of anything in my entire life.
Buffy's POV
None of this is real. None of this is real. Owww... Ouch! I lean toward the doctor trying to bite him.
Stop it! Leave me alone, please... please... I want Faith!
"FAITH! FAITH!"
Faith's POV
We're working our shift, me and Xander. I've been telling him about the shit that I read in B's file. It makes us both uncomfortable. Probably `cause there's something eerily familiar about it.
"Who's that?" I motion to the dweeb at the front desk. He asked to see Buffy. I know `cause I heard him. Heard him with my... gotta laugh here... 'slayer' hearing.
Xander glances over. "Jonathan. His name's Jonathan. I went to high school with him. Always a bit strange, but nice enough. He's the only one that comes to see your Buffy from what I've learned."
"Huh? What about her family?"
Xander shrugs as he pulls another box from the cart. We've been filling the supply rooms all morning. Boring shit, lemme tell ya.
"How would a nerd like that know someone as hot as B?"
"Couldn't tell ya. Faith, can you hand me that box?"
I zone out for a sec `cause I hear something. It's B. She's screaming. "What the hell?! B!"
"Faith, what's wrong?" He reaches for me, but I'm already halfway down the hall headed for her ward.
I kick the locked doors open and race down the hall.
"Hey!" Some bitch at the nursing station is yelling at me, and picking up the phone. Doesn't matter `cause I'm already in the corridor counting the doors `til I'm at hers. I burst in.
"What the fuck are you doing to her?!" B's all scrunched up in the corner shaking. She's holding out a scalpel trying to ward off several orderlies and a doctor.
The second she sees me she drops it and runs into my arms. Her tiny body trembles as she sobs uncontrollably. "Faith. Faith. Please. It hurts. Make it stop."
"Awww... B. Shhhhh... It's okay. I got ya. No one's gonna hurt ya anymore." I'm ready to kill as I turn toward the stunned group.
One of the dickhead orderlies grabs my arm.
"GET YOUR MOTHERFUCKIN' HAND OFF ME BEFORE I TAKE IT OFF!"
He lets go and steps back. I lift B gently, cradling her in my arms. Baby, what are they doing to you?
I hold her carefully as she snuggles against me, hiding her face against my neck. She whispers. "I knew you'd come back."
The door is thrown open and that nerdy runt storms in. "Put her down!"
B lifts her head and sees him. She's as weak as a kitten, but she manages to get out the words. "Jonathan. He did this Faith. He did all of this."
That's all I needed to hear. Bam! I punch the sawed off bastard and he's out cold. "ANYONE ELSE!" I scream as I make my way to the door with B.
"You're going to take me away?" Her little voice is hopeful.
I hold her closer and mutter. "I ain't leavin' ya here B, that's for sure!"
"Faith? That's your name? Listen Faith." The doctor is slowly moving toward me. I watch him coldly. The warning is in my eyes. "Put the girl down. She's delusional. You must realize that?" The orderlies are inching toward me also. He keeps talking trying to keep me distracted I suppose. "Nothing out of the ordinary was going on here. Just put the girl down and we'll straighten this whole mess out."
I look past him and see the tray. It has all kinds of weird sharp instruments on it and several filled syringes.
"I don't think so." My arms tighten around B as I spin around and kick, knocking the first orderly to the ground.
Shit, it's easy! I duck another creep's swing, then stamp the guy's foot before taking him out with a head butt. A quick twist, an elbow and a knee to the groin and the third guy's down for the count. The doctor backs away. Wise choice.
I adjust B carefully in my arms then reach for the door. Hell, no way! Gotta hit him once. I jump and kick the doc right in the kisser. Now they're all laying on the floor groaning. That's better! "Don't worry B! We're outta here!"
I can feel her tears. She's making my neck all wet as we head down the hall. I spot Xander who's staring back stunned. He looks down at the girl in my arms and gasps. "I... I.."
"Know her." I finish the sentence for him. "I think we all do. Come on, we have to get the hell outta here, quick."
PART 8 - Three Villians and a Spell
"Wait a minute, Sparky. What do you mean the other slayer was there?!" Warren shouted, shoving Jonathan.
"Watch it!" He shrieked and stumbled back. "It's just what I said. Buffy was carried out by the other slayer. They drove away with Xander Harris."
"Xander was there too?" Andrew squeaked pulling off his virtual reality helmet.
"Okay Frodo, is there anything about your spell that went right?!"
"Wait a minute! This isn't my fault. My spell was working perfectly. I wasn't expecting the other Slayer. She was suppose to be in prison." Jonathan glared at Andrew.
"What?! Why are you looking at me?" Andrew whined, backing away from them. "She must have escaped or..."
"Or been released!" Jonathan yelled moving toward Andrew.
Warren stepped in front of him. "That's enough Whine-athan!" He turned to Andrew. "Moron, get on the internet and find out how the other Slayer ended up in Sunnydale. Now!"
"How long before the drugs wear off on Buffy?" Jonathan hedged, frightened at the prospect of facing two slayers.
"Oh don't worry about that, Sparky. They'll last awhile. Hopefully long enough for us to do some damage control." Warren walked over to Andrew and peered at the computer screen. "What do you have?"
He typed a few more commands. "We're in. Uhhh... looks like..."
"She was released ten days ago. You Nimrod!" Warren flicked Andrew's head causing him to scream.
"Well what are the chances of that? Released a day before the spell. Huh? She must have come straight to Sunnydale."
"YOU THINK!" Jonathan had enough of being blamed for their failures, and this new one was just about the last straw.
"I said that's enough short stuff! Sit down and shut up!" Warren stepped menacingly close.
"You're always taking his side and I'm sick of it." He complained bitterly.
"Uh... guys, I hate to be the one to ask this but will the spell hold?" Andrew peered nervously at Jonathan then at Warren.
Faith's POV
"B, how ya feeling? Are you alright?"
She's still sitting in my lap wearing her cute cotton pajamas. She looks up and gives me a faint smile. "I'm five by five, Faith."
It makes me laugh and hug her tighter. "That's good. Are you hungry? Xander should be back soon. He just went to pick up Red... I mean Willow. You do know Willow, don't ya babe?"
She grins and pokes my shoulder. "You silly head. Of course, I know Willow. She's my best friend."
"Uh... yeah. Okay. B maybe you should try an' sleep. I'll put you on the bed." I move to stand up, but she puts her hand out.
"No, I'm good here."
I kinda look at her, trying to figure her out, but I sit back down. "Alright. But at least close your eyes for a few minutes then. You need some rest, B. I'll be right here for you. No one's gonna hurt you anymore... okay? I won't let `em. I promise."
I know she'll fall asleep. She's been fighting it since we've been at the hotel. It's like she's afraid that she'll wake up in that mental ward again. Not a chance though. No one is taking her anywhere. She's with me now and that's that.
Once Xander brings Red and Tara, we'll start sorting this out. According to B this is some kind of freaky spell. Yeah... freaky.
The trio were still in Andrew's basement working feverishly on a solution. Andrew hunched over the computer screen reading the data while Jonathan went through books doing research.
And Warren sat at a desk doing calculations. "I don't like it. I don't like it at all. Sparky, this spell of yours," he waited until Jonathan looked up. "How long before it starts disintegrating?"
"It already has. We don't have much time before everything and everyone starts returning to normal. Faith is what broke the spell." Jonathan glanced back at Andrew. "I wasn't counting on Buffy interacting with another Slayer. Numbnuts over here, is who wrecked this scheme."
"Yeah, yeah.. we've been over that, twerp. Tell me how we reset the spell."
"Well, we can't... not without capturing the two Slayers first. And I'm not so sure it's worth the try. It was hard enough to do to one Slayer. Besides that Faith is a mean one... I don't want to run into her again." He rubbed his bruised jaw.
"Look on the bright side, Sparky." Warren walked over to Jonathan and put a hand his shoulder. "At least she held back... or you'd be dead right now." Both he and Andrew chuckled at Jonathan's horrified expression. Then he slapped his back hard, "Buck up a there, we'll find the Slayers and we'll redo the spell."
Buffy's POV
Faith held me in her arms the whole car ride. It felt wonderful. I clung to her and cried. I can't believe she saved me. She kept her promise and she came back for me. Oh Faith...
She's still holding me on her lap. I feel so safe and warm. I snuggle in closer and bury my face against her neck. She smells so nice. That sexy, delicious, uniquely Faith scent.... mmmm.... I love it.
We're in the hotel room. Xander got it while we hid in the car... just in case. Faith is worried that they'll be looking for us... the police. But I don't think they will, Jonathan's spell is breaking already. I can tell. Faith seems less awkward with me, and Xander is acting more normal too. They still can't remember anything. But at least I know I'm not crazy and they know it too.
God, this is like coming back from the dead... again. Only this time I'm coming back from a bad place.
It was such a relief to hear that Dawnie was okay. She's been staying at the house with Willow and Tara.
Ooo... Faith is talking to Xander about something. I think he's going somewhere. I don't care though. Not right now. I'm too comfortable to move. Still breathing in Faith and basking in this whole new thing... Faith and me.
But what if... what if when the spell wears off she's doesn't like me anymore? I shiver at the thought.
"B, how ya feeling? Are you alright?"
I smile at the question. It's so sweet and her voice is filled with so much concern. Did I mention that I love the sound of her voice... ahhhh..
"I'm five by five, Faith."
She chuckles a little at this. I hoped she would. I love her sexy laugh. Oh... I get a hug too. Faith gave me hug. Yippee. Mmmm... Faithy...
"That's good. Are you hungry? Xander should be back soon. He just went to pick up Red... I mean Willow. You do know Willow, don't ya babe?"
Babe! She called me babe. I'm grinning from ear to ear like a dope. Than I realize she's waiting for an answer. Huh? What was the question? Oh yeah, uh... do I know Willow. Hehehehe! Silly Faith! Did she really ask that?! She's funny. I poke her playfully. "You silly head. Of course, I know Willow. She's my best friend."
"Uh... yeah. Okay. B maybe you should try an' sleep. I'll put you on the bed." Faith starts to get up.
Noooooo! Don't want to move! I want her to hold me. I try for nonchalance. "No, I'm good here."
She looks at me a bit confused then readjusts me in her lap. "Alright. But at least close your eyes for a few minutes then. You need some rest, B. I'll be right here for you. No one's gonna hurt you anymore... okay? I won't let `em. I promise."
I think my heart skipped a beat. Oh Faith... I love you.
All I can do is nod as I close my eyes for her. Mmmmm... sleepy land with Faith holding me. It's like heaven.
Faith's POV
I'm gettin' tired. I'm just waiting for Xander, Red and Tara to finish reading B's file. Anya's back at the house looking out for the squirt, Dawn.
"Huh? What Red?"
"Faith, this can't be true. What made you and Xander believe any of this?!"
"Come here." Red gets up and walks over to where I'm sitting. She's watching as I carefully turn the little blonde in my arms so that she can see her face. B's still sleeping and looking so friggin' adorable too.
Yep, Buffy Summers takes my breath away... and Red's. But I think that's more `cause my perky new friend recognizes her.
"Oh god Tara, she does look familiar." Red slowly reaches out and caresses Buffy's cheek. I'd be pissed if it were someone else touching B like that, but it's Red so it's okay. I like her. And according to B's file they're close friends. Besides Red's totally in love with Tara, anyway.
I'm actually kinda proud to have everyone give this awed reaction toward her. Guess `cause I'm already kinda thinkin' of her as my girl.
B whimpers a bit, and sleepily rubs at her face. "Awww.... she's so cute, Faith." Red coos.
"She is, isn't she?"
I can't help it anymore. I lift her and kiss her. Then without really thinking I hold her up, offering her. Red can kiss her too if she wants. She wants to. I can tell, but Tara's standing right there. Plus I think it occurs to both of us... WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING?!
Ugh! I pull B back into my arms, snug-like. "Sorry. Not thinkin' too clear."
Red just smiles and nods. Then Tara speaks up. "Maybe we should go for now, and come back in the morning. The books we'd need are back at Anya's shop anyway."
Xander chuckles, "Yeah, now her owning that place makes some sense."
Damn. Gotta go pee.
"Faith, what wrong?" Tara's all concerned.
"Nothin'. Just gotta pee, yunno." I know real lady-like. But when ya gotta go...
"Well?" They all are givin' me a weird look.
"She doesn't want to be put down." I feebly try an explain B's fears. Don't have to explain long. Lucky for me, Xander stretches out his arms.
"I'll take her." The girls smirk so he quickly adds. "So Faith can use the bathroom."
"Thanks Xan." Good! I gladly pass B into his arms and race to the can.
"So Sparky, you never did explain. What was Xander doing at the hospital?" Warren inched closer to Jonathan who was sitting at the monitor next him.
"How should I know?!" He snapped, immediately defensive.
"That's what I thought!" Warren pinched him hard. "You better tell me Frodo, before I bash your little head in."
"Owwwww!" Jonathan swatted at him and backed away. "Don't call me that. You know I hate it."
"Frodo?" Warren laughed and shrugged. "Okay, I won't call you Frodo. So now spill you whiny-dwarf. You put him there?! Didn't you?!"
"Yeah, I thought Xander was a construction worker." Andrew chimed in. "Maybe Jonathan wanted the spell to fail?!"
"Is that true, Sparky?! Are you having second thoughts?!"
Jonathan swallowed hard. He hadn't thought about; maybe he was. After all, it was guilt that prompted him to put at least one friend of the slayer's near. He couldn't help it; he had a soft spot for Buffy Summers.
They were, of course right, putting anyone familiar in her proximity was a gamble, but he also knew that Xander hadn't interacted with her yet. Not to mention Xander Harris's bond with Buffy wasn't strong enough to effect the spell.
Best to admit nothing, he decided.
"NO! I'm as committed to this as you either of you! He must have been there visiting someone." Jonathan then feigned outrage as he gestured toward Andrew. "Doesn't matter anyway. Idiot boy didn't give me accurate information on the other slayer's whereabouts, and the other Slayer is what spoiled it!"
"How do we know that!" Andrew squeaked.
"LEPTON, SHE'S THE ONE WHO BROKE BUFFY OUT!" Jonathan screamed and lunged at Andrew.
Warren caught him and pulled him back. "Enough!" He studied Jonathan's indignant expression for a moment. "Fine. Get that locating spell ready. We need to find the Slayers."
Buffy's POV
I yawn and stretch. Hey! Wait a minute! My eyes snap open. Xander?!!!
"Where's Faith?"
"Right here, babe. I'm back. I just had to go to the bathroom." She reaches out, and Xander passes me back over to her.
Okay, this is embarrassing. But I'm back in Faith's arms. My motivation to complain is gone.
"Whaddya want to eat? Hmm, B? Xander's gonna bring somethin' back for us after he drops our witches off at home." Faith turns me around so that I can see Willow and Tara are here.
Hurray! I jump up and run over to Willow, embracing her.
"Oh god Willow, I so missed you!"
She hugs me back, but seems flustered. My Willow doesn't really remember me either! I fight back my tears, and step away. "Sorry."
Geez! Pull it together, Buffy. It's the spell.
"No, that's okay... Buffy." Willow smiles nervously at me, then glances at Tara.
Is Tara mad? I quickly turn to her. "I didn't mean to..."
She laughs and shakes her head, "Don't worry about it, Buffy. It's okay. We're all friends. I can feel it. And we're going to help you. We'll sort all of this out."
Thank goodness for sensible Tara. I smile and sit back on Faith's lap.
I'm safe when her arms are around me. Ahhhh... I lean up against Faith and relax as the others finish discussing the plan. I should be helping them, but I can't. Still feeling fuzzy. And hungry now too.
"Mickey D's!" That's my contribution.
"Huh?" They all look confused except for Faith.
"She wants McDonalds. Don't ya, B?"
I nod happily. My connection with Faith hasn't been broken. She still knows me... even though her memory's off.
Xander grabs his coat. "Big Macs coming up."
"Nope. McNuggets, please, and fries and a large Coke... Oh and a hot fudge sundae too." I give him my sweetest smile. "Pleeeaaassee."
Faith pulls out her wallet and hands him a twenty. "I'll take two Big Macs, a large Coke, two large fries, a hot apple pie, a chocolate milkshake, a vanilla one for B and.." Faith smiles at me before pulling out more money. "A box of McDonald Land cookies, a happy meal, and two cheeseburgers and that's it... Oh wait..." She reaches in her wallet again. "Anyone else want somethin'?"
Faith's so funny. I'm convinced she could eat a horse... literally. I giggle and snuggle up next to her as everyone leaves.
"Faith?"
"Hmm?"
"Faith, will you kiss me?"
She laughs. "Are you for real, babe?!"
I look up at her to see if she's joking. But she immediately kisses me. *Oh yum... mmm.*
"Does that answer your question?" She's smiling down at me.
*Huh?* "Uh... what?"
Faith's laughing again as she gets up, carrying me to the bed. I kind of scream and cling tightly to her.
"No! I don't want to go to sleep!"
"B, we're not going to sleep." She wiggles her eyebrows.
"Oh? huh?... wha... oh!... OKAY!"
PART 10 - Fast Food And Freaks
Faith's POV
"B, we're not going to sleep."
I carry my little blonde honey to the bed, and put her down all careful-like. Mmmm... I want this.
She gives me a blank look at first then smiles all sexy. "OKAY!"
Ooh yeah! I pull off those damn cotton pajamas in record time. I gotta get this girl somethin' else to wear. But shit, that's a problem for another time.
I'm strippin' off my own clothes while she lays there and watches. Whoa! I think I'm blushing. There's a first for everything. B... what was it again? Oh yeah. Buffy.
"Buffy, you want me to turn off the lights."
She makes a scrunchy face. "No, Faith. You call me B."
"Uh... yeah `cause that's all that was written on your bracelet babe. But now that I read your file. I know...well, I know you're Buffy...um..." Damn brain, think. "Uh...Summers. Yeah, Buffy Summers." Hell, who said I suck with names. I smile all proud that I remembered her last name too.
"No. I mean, you always called me B."
Hmm? Did I? Whatever. "Okay, B. I just figured `cause we're about to, ya know... That you'd at least want me to call ya by your name..." She lookin' at me funny. "Uh... hey, never mind."
I kinda want it dark now so I pick up one of my boots and throw it at the light switch. Bingo! Lights out!
She's giggling. "Good shot!"
Damn, she's adorable!
"Hey Sparky, how are you coming with that locating spell?"
"Got it." Jonathan held up a glowing stone. "It will become brighter the closer we get."
"Ooh! Cool!" Andrew reached out, but Warren slapped his hand away.
"Go get the van, dorkus." Warren directed, handing out their guns.
Buffy's POV
Hehehehe! "Faith, that tickles."
I look down and Faith lifts her head, grinning.
"Sorry B. Jus' playing."
"Yeah, well get serious. We only have an hour."
She starts laughing. "Damn, you're a little slave driver, ain't ya?" She gives me one last Faithy smile then dips her head back down.
Oh my! I'm arching off the bed as she licks me. Barely able to breathe.
"Yessss... right there, Faithy... right there!"
I can feel her tongue moving faster. Oh yes! Mmmm... she's sucking gently on me, and I'm so close. "Faith! Faith! I'm going to cum... oh yes... Oh Faith... Oh god... oh.. oh... OHHHHHH!" Ahhhhhhhhh! I'm there.
She licks me a few more times. Nice big, soft licks. Mmmmm.... I'm so sleepy... and ushy... Oh Faithy.
"B, don't fade on me now." And suddenly here she is. Right above me, smirking. It's so Faith. I lean up and kiss her.
"I'm not fading. I'm awake. See! Awake Girl! That's me."
"Ugh! Faith don't eat all of that. You're going to get fat."
Both her and Xander laugh as he hands her another Big Mac.
"What?! Won't you still love me?" She's teasing.
I'm not. "I'll always love you." They both become absolutely silent. Oops! Maybe, I shouldn't have said that.
There's a knock at the door. We all look at each other. Xander whispers, "Faith, take Buffy into the bathroom. I'll get the door. Might just be a hotel person."
"Gotcha."
Before I know what's happening Faith's scooped me up in her arms. Wheeeee! A Faith ride!
"B, shhhh..."
Oh? Did I say something?
"Here it is." Jonathan sets the stone down, and gestures to the motel room. "There's Xander's car. That one."
"Go knock, you bonehead." Warren pushes Andrew forward.
"Me? Why me?"
"No one really knows you. That's why!" Jonathan snorts, shoving him. "C'mon, get going... since this is all your fault anyway."
"Not so fast. What about that nasty slayer?"
"Idiot! She's not going to answer the door. Xander is." Jonathan sneers impatiently.
"Then we zap `em." Warren fingers his stun gun.
