-What Were We Waiting For-

Hello everyone i'm Animestarz96! hajimemashite! ha its nice to meet you:P anyway i know i havent writen in a long while and i know i had a lot of mistakes in my other story but this time i promise it will be a lot better!

so this is my first cowboy bebop story and its gonna be a One-shot just to start me off and i want some feed back on what yall like and some constructive critism so i can improve. so before i start this will be i guess a preview of the actual story. Now its gonna be a spike/faye story...i just love them! i mean i know the author doesnt exacly intend it but they would be a perfecto couple to me! and wanatabe said in an interview that spike likes faye! (nothing wrong with julia i mean i understand the whole julia/spike ordeal but shes his past and he has to move on) so yeah romance family kinda thing but this takes place after the last ep. i know a lot of people have done that but come on guys the show leaves us to pretty much write as much as possible to continue, oh and its not just from spike and faye POV cuz you know we cant forget the rest of the crew!. okay enough talking 3, 2, 1 let's jam! (Ha lame;p)

Discalimer: i do not own cowboy bebop ... or spike:(

"talking" 'thinking' (unless its in one of thier POV)

...its all a dream...just a dream...

those were some of the last thoughts that went through spike speigel's mind as he walked up to the steps and towards his fate. with every step he took he thought of people he let down and left behind. Julia, Annie, Shin, Lin...Jet, Ed, The Bebop...Faye...ha faye, he doesnt know why but that name stuck to him. From all of these people she is the only one he felt he wasnt ready to say goodbye to. For some reason he knew there was still so much to be said and done. But here he was about to die and all because fate wanted to screw him over.

yep who would have knew a friendship could turn out this way ? but he knew that this had to be done. If he wanted to be free and most importantly if he wanted them to be free. Again he thought of them...the bebop...in a way they were a family. a really messed up one at that. Jet the big brother who took care of us, a family figure i guess you could say, Ed the annoying kid sister who you couldnt help but love no matter how weird she was (AN:yes spike said love, i like to think he has those feelings somewhere in him) Hell! they even had a dog! and then their was faye. hmmm faye. There really wasnt an exact place to put faye in spike's messed up family other than the fact that she fit perfectly. all he knew was he realy had cared about her and wanted her well being no matter how bitchy she got. Ha and yes he had to admit she was pretty damn hot and when she did get bitchy man did he get an adrenaline rush fighting back. Maybe there could have been more, but for now he had to end the hell he was living at this moment and stop the hunting of the Red Dragons.

At this moment spike spoke for what he thought was the last time "Julia is dead, let's end this now" vicious looked up "as you wish" and as fast as you could say his name vicious was gone. As spike walked down the steps of the Red Dragons he let out one last breath with a ..."bang..."

Faye POV

'im not going there to die, im going to see if im really alive'...'ha! stupid bastard, who the hell says that anyway. what the hell is it suppost to mean? here i am sitting on the fucking floor still tring not to cry...how pathetic, that failed 15 minutes ago anyway and its been what 30 or 40 minutes now? That damn luckhead, who does he think he is just leaving like that! i feel like there is no closer! Damn him! Damn him and his ignorant selfish self!'

After about another 10 minutes i find myself a little calmed down. My anger turned to sandness and my heart crunched a little more 'damn it! dont start crying again faye! I should probably get up and find jet, no way in hell am i gonna go soft and let that damn lunkhead win! hell no! Im a strong women and can get over somthing like this!' At least thats what i tell myself. i can at least try my best too though. ' now there is one thing i know for sure and its that i'm not leaving Jet here' '...no he deserves better and im not letting the ass hole named spike run me out...no im staying'

Jet POV

'That damn kid! shit i knew this would happen one day and then here it comes hes gone just like that! hmmm but i knew it needed to be done. ...ugh ! ...stupid ass...as pathetic and selfish as this sounds im not as worried about him being alright as i am about being alone. He made a home here...they all did and now him, ed, and even the mutt are gone...i just wonder what faye is gonna do now. Im hoping she wont pull a moody women act an jet off, but then again you never know with that women. I actually hope she will stay. Shes kind of grown on me in a way, even though i prally wont ever say that out loud. No matter what, its a rule!, i wont say a word ' i got up and headed to the main room 'no use in moping around all night. i think the spot i've been cleaning for the past 35 minutes is clean enough.'

Regular

Faye finally stood up and walked to the main room looking around for jet. 'hmmm maybe hes still coping or somthing, hope the old man is doing okay' She sat down and turned on the T.V. the news reporter blaired loud and faye turned down "I'm standing outside what an insider has said used to be the Red Drangon headcorders , a big time mafia, it looks like there has a been a hudge blow out and there seems to be little to almost no survivours..." faye shut off the T.V. not wanting to hear anything that had to do with HIM. "little to no survivours huh? well ill be damnd...damn stupid ass" faye jumped as she heard jet mutter these words behind her. "Jet!...hey..." she looked up at him and he replied "hey" "so, this is it huh?" jet looked up at faye and gave a small smile "well for him" he said trying to lighten the mood. He went and sat at a good distance next to her. "ha yeah i guess so" after a few moments of a comfortable scilence jet spoke up softly and hesitantly "so i guess your gone too huh?" faye looked up a little suprised then smiled " well i dont know old man, I dont want you fallin' on your ass all the time now do i? i mean without me here where would you be? with your age and all" he chuckled softly "hey come on now i aint that old, i still got a good fifty years on me...but i dont mind you know...if you stay...i guess...i kinda want you to..." she looked at him with sad eyes and a sad small smile that said everything will be okay "well i guess i dont have a choice now do i?" "i guess not" he smiled back saying the same thing at once. after a small scilence Jet spoke up "well i guess im gonna sleep now, you should too" and with that he walked out. "yeah...i should" she wisperd, and with that she fell asleep right there on the old yellow couch thinking of a green haird lunkhead.

Red Dragon headcorders an hour earlier

when the rest of what was left of the red dragons left one stayed behind. A fairly tall handsome man with black hair came up to the steps near where they had just witnessed spike fall to his "death" "shit spike" he checked for a pulse "damn how do you do it" he lifted him up as best he could and faded into darkness.
