Pre-Note: Hi guys! Yes I looked and this is the first ever Lorne/Faith fic yay me. Although it isn't really romance it's some short sweetness ;) If you would review I would love you forever! And just to let you know this takes place after the episode "Orpheus" from Season 4. If you never saw it the important thing is Lorne stood by Faith while she was "dying" and Wesley said to Faith earlier that she could never change or find redemption!

Happy reading and thanx to my beta Bea!

Beautiful

"Hey, Will, I'll meet you at the car. Forgot somethin'." Faith said to Willow as they left Angel Inc.'s picturesque garden. The witch waved and moved on while Faith found a seat on the bench. She sat there her back stooping over gazing at the dry fountain for a few moments. But she could stand it any longer and called out, "You know never get a job as a spy, green-boy. No way you'd stay alive. I heard you from the moment I left the hotel."

"Really? Oh no all of my hopes to follow in Pierce Bronson's fancy footsteps are dashed. It's alright though. I'm more of a stirred not shaken demon myself." Lorne laughed as he sat down next to the slayer.

"So the whole being green thing wouldn't effect the 007 factor?"

"Naw. I'm still convinced that Connery is a Kroplex demon." Faith allowed herself to smile. Lorne nursed his seabreeze and she stared into the distance. Faith had no idea how to relate to the demon sitting next to her. In her world if it had horns, claws, or more than two eyes it was toast. It was simple. But here in LA there were demons like Lorne. Demons that were fighting on the good side. Faith just wasn't used to it. Hell, she had just gotten used to being out of "It's a Not-so-Wonderful Life" land. She couldn't handle it. A trip to Sunnydale would be fresh air even though she had to face the Scoobies again. But right now she was next to a good demon who stood by her death bed. A demon…or a person who she didn't even know. What could she say? Luckily Lorne talk said something first.

"You're not gonna use that junk again." It wasn't a question it was more of an assertion.

"I'm not." She replied looking into Lorne's red eyes. He didn't believe her.

"You were lucky. You are the only girl to my knowledge that has survived-"

"I know Lorne. I won't do it again."

"No matter what the circumstance?"

"Yeah. Can I go know Dad?" Faith asked sweetly as she got up her hands in her back pockets.

"Class dismissed, Princess. Be careful. And forget whatever Wesley said to you. He's been under a lot of grade A fertilizer lately. You'll make it." Lorne stared to re-enter the hotel when Faith's voice stopped him.

"But you don't even know me." Lorne turned to look at the woman.

"Sometimes people don't have to sing for me to see them." He said without hesitation.

"Thank you. For standing by me today." Faith whispered.

"For you, Faith? Anytime!" Lorne moved over to her and put his arms around her. He then gently kissed her on the forehead.

"Thank you." Faith put her hand on the man's face and he smiled with all of his warmth. And to the slayer he was beautiful.

"Go find Willow, Princess. Go find redemption." Lorne took her hand from his face and kissed it.

"I will." Faith strode out of the garden without looking back.

"You find what you were missing?" Willow asked as Faith jumped into the taxi.

"Yeah I think I did."
