Then There is not...
A/N: This is the sequel to my story "There Is." There seemed to be a few of you that thought it would be good to have a sequel so I said what the he;; why not write it now instead of waiting to write it. I hope that you all like this one.
Chapter One: No Good-byes
She was gone. Buffy knew that there would be no sense in gong after her there was a thing with Faith. When she did not want to be found no one was able to find her. All she could do was wait to see if she came back from wherever she thought that she had to go.
Walking to the window her blond hair blew slightly in the wind that was flowing through. The moon light washed across her floor giving it that gentle glow that she loved to see on Faith's face whenever they were out slaying at night. It always gave her pale features a glow that she found hard to look away from.
Why did she have to leave. She knew that she thought that she was not good enough to have Buffy's love and the truth was she was more than good enough. She was the only one that she wanted to love. Faith was the only one that she felt she could love.
She glanced over at the piece of paper that lay on the floor beside her bed that she had dropped no more than two minutes ago. Was she really gone or was she still in town? Could Buffy find her and convince her that leaving was not the right thing to do. Tell her that she was in love with her too?
"I love you Faith."
She paused to lean on the window casing to look out into the cool night. One would think that being a slayer and seeing more of the night than most did that she would hate the night time. No she loved it because that was the only time when people were not afraid to show their true faces.
"Why didn't you see that I loved you before you left."
her words were barley more than a whisper as she said them into the night. The only thing that seemed to be a constant in her life at this point. If only the small breeze that seemed to be blowing would carry her words to Faith.
******************
There she sat outside Buffy's window waiting for her to get home and see the note. She knew that she should not be sticking around but there was something telling her that she needed to stay. She did not know why she wanted to stay so badly though, all she would hear would be the blond's laughter at what the note said.
She didn't think that she would be able o handle that but she also never thought that she would fall in love with Buffy so stranger things have happened. Buffy was not a woman that could be predicted in these situations. She always did what ever everyone thought that she would not do. Maybe that meant that she would love Faith back?
"Huh...Yeah right Faith you just keep tellin' yourself that and you might just believe it someday."
She laughed at her own hopeful thoughts. She knew that Buffy would never feel the same way for her. It was just one of those things that was never going to happen no matter how much she wished and hoped and dreamed that it would.
All thoughts seemed to leave her mind when the door inside the room squeaked open. She knew that it was Buffy and not her mom that was entering the room. If not for the fact that Mrs. S would be fast asleep at this hour but she could feel her. Whenever the other girl was around she could feel it. There was something inside her that screamed and caused her spine to tingle and the hair on the back of her neck to stand on end. It was almost like the feeling a vamp gave her when one was close. There was a distinct difference in those two feelings though. When it cam to Buffy there was always a warm buzzing that seemed to cover her whole body.
She watched as Buffy walked to the closet and took out something. She could not see most of the room from where she was sitting out side of the window but she figured that Buffy was headed to the shower when she left the room with a few clothes in hand.
"God B' you're killin' me here...Hurry up and find the damned poem so I can move on from this place...From you."
She did not know how much time had passed since the blond had left and came back but she was walking back into the room now looking like she was ready to pass out. She looked so beautiful with the moon light shining in on her and her hair a mass of wet tangles.
She watched as she made her way over to the bed and picked up the paper looking at it in confusion at first. In that moment she decided that she did not want to know what Buffy thought of the note. She did not want to know how she would react to the words written in a messy scrawl across the paper.
She made it off of the small roof and to the ground a minute or so later. Taking on last glance at the blond's window she could have sworn that she heard crying from inside but decided not to go back up and look. She needed to get as far away from this place as she could.
The only thing that she had to do now was go back to her hotel room and get her things before making her way to the Sunnydale bus station. She would say good-bye to this place without a second thought now that Buffy knew how she felt.
***************************
Buffy watched out her window again and she knew that she had to look for her at least. Maybe she had not had a chance to leave yet.
"She was thinking that I would not feel the same way so that means that she might still be around getting ready to leave."
She rushed to the phone. She knew that she needed help with this one and there was only one person that would understand what she was feeling and not judge her for those feelings. Willow was her best friend and she knew that she could tell her anything.
The phone rang four times before she heard a tired yet familiar voice on the other end.
"Hi Will...I need you to do me a huge favor and not ask me why right now. I will tell you when I know that I will be able to live tomorrow. When I know that she is staying."
There was a short pause as she listed to Willow on the other end. Just as she had thought the wicca said that she would help without a reason why.
"Okay I need you to go to the bust station and wait there for Faith to show up if she is not there when you get there. If you find her tell her that I read it and that I need to talk to her. Willow do anything that you can to make her stay."
She listened again. She knew that Willow was only a few minutes away from the station and it would make more sense for her o wait there for Faith to show up.
"Well if she still wants to leave than tell her that I said to tell her that I love her too."
There was a shocked silence that fallowed her words.
"Thank you Will you are the best. I swear that I will tell you everything when I know that she is not leaving."
Buffy changed her clothes quickly and left the house. The hunt for the younger slayer was on.
