A/N: Taking them out for a spin, I don't own any of the characters.
Thanks to everyone for the reviews, I appreciate the feedback, and have seen the requests. Hopefully I can add a bit to one of my previous one-shots before next week's episode. :)
Beep.
Beep.
Beep.
Faye's eyes fluttered open, seeking the source of the annoying, repetitive beeping.
"Ow, oh," she touched a hand to her head, which felt fuzzy and thick. And hurt. "What. The hell!" Now that the pain had woken her more fully, Faye realized she was laying in a hospital bed.
"Oh gross," she picked at the dreary pastel green hospital gown she wore as she started to sit up.
"Slow down," Jake's voice drew her attention. He was sitting in a chair beside the door.
Faye lifted an eyebrow. "What are you doing here? What am *I* doing here?"
Jake dragged his chair beside her bed, and then explained, "Your mom found you unconscious in your bed. She couldn't wake you up. You've been out for thirty-six hours."
"What?" Faye grimaced as a little bolt of pain danced behind her eyes. "What happened?"
"We don't know," Jake said, lowering his voice. "But I think it was probably magic. The doctors haven't been able to find anything."
"And you're here because?"
"Everyone else is at school," Jake said, a little hastily.
Faye gave him her patented glare, but when his only response was a cocky smile, she shook her head. "Whatever. I'm awake," she motioned with her hands to the door. "You can leave now."
"Not until we figure this out. If you're in danger, the whole Circle could be in danger," Jake said.
Faye rolled her eyes, "I get it. You're worried whatever I have is catching and your poor, precious Cassie might be next."
"Faye, this could be serious," Jake said.
"Whatever," Faye brushed off his concern, rolling onto her side away from him.
"What's the last thing you remember?" Jake
Faye closed her eyes and thought about it...
Pressing her body against Lee's, Faye opened her mouth to admit his tongue.
At last, she thought. At last.
Lee held her tightly, backing her towards the bed. Faye sighed happily, sliding her leg up Lee's. She felt the mattress under her back as Lee's lips burned a path down her neck. She sighed again, and then yawned.
"Sorry," Faye covered her mouth with the back of her hand.
Lee paused to smile at her, before trailing kisses across her collarbone. She felt him slip a hand under the edge of her shirt, teasing a finger along the skin of her hip.
And then everything got fuzzy.
"Wait, Lee," Faye said, putting a hand to his chest. She blinked, and looked around her room, but her eyesight was still blurry.
"Are you okay?" Lee asked, pressing a kiss to her forehead, and putting a hand to her cheek.
"I... don't think so," Faye said. Lee kissed her lips, and Faye tried to shove him away, but she felt so weak. "What's going on?"
"Don't worry, Faye," Lee whispered. "I'll take care of you."
That was the last thing Faye was aware of before darkness took her.
"That little shit!" Faye snapped, her eyes opening to find Jake hunched down in front of her.
"Who?" Jake's tone was menacing, but it barely penetrated the rage Faye felt at being used.
"Lee."
Finis? Maybe he's making out with Faye at the end of ep 15 in order to drain her power for Eva (Ava?) in a different way...
