Authors notes; Just a really short Christmas one-shot with Buffy and Faith, I'm planning on doing more until Christmas. First time posting anything. Please tell me what you think.

"So what do you want for Christmas?" Buffy asked as she carefully adjusted the tinsel she had wrapped around the tree, her eyes moving with due speed to look at Faith.
"Nothin'." A shrug was sent her way.
Buffy gave a small frown although one couldn't tell if it was at Faith's words or the fact her tree decorating skills were – shocking, the bad shocking at that.
"You seriously can't think of anything you'd like?"
"Not really big on the whole Christmas thing B."
"You've got to be the first person I've met then."
Faith gave another shrug shifting from her position on the couch as she stood to look at the barely covered tree, hands cupping her hips. "Ya gotta be kiddin' me."
"What?" Came the blonde's reply looking almost frightfully at the bare tree, a second glance later she turned around. "What?"
"Looks like shit."
Buffy gasped loudly and gripped the gold tinsel between her fingers. "Faith!"
"I'm just saying."
"I've been hear an hour, do you know how hard it is to get the perfect tree?"
Laughing huskily under her breath Faith nodded in the direction of the tree. "Been hear an hour an' yet ya still only got a bit of tinsel and one decoration up."
Buffy didn't smile instead heaved the gold tinsel at Faith, pointing at the other decorations as she spoke. "You think you can do it better?"
"I think a drunken baby could do it better."
Shaking her head at Faith's choice of words Buffy smiled. "I haven't started yet, give me time to get things sorted and I'll deliver the best Christmas tree ever."
"Right so in about another hour you'll have put up the star and added one more decoration?" Faith asked, not hiding her grin when Buffy huffed.
"Ha,ha – just you wait."
"Bet ya ten bucks you fail." Quipped Faith this time drawing a slight chuckle from the blonde's lips.
"I'm not betting-"
"Afraid ya'll loose B?"
Buffy paused for a moment as she looked at the tree, quickly adverting her eyes to Faith as she held out her hand. "Fine, ten dollars it is."
Faith eagerly shook her hand. Watching as the blonde Slayer fussed over where to place the decorations and chided herself as she wrapped bunches of tinsel over the branches.
…Needless to say Faith pocketed ten dollars and two hours later Buffy finally accepted the help of Xander and Anya as they happily dressed the tree in colorful lights – her childish remarks of them ruining what she had done blended well with that of Faith's bragging and waving of the ten dollars.
