"You've done it B . . . welcome to the club," said Faith, hoarsely and staggered on the ledge.
Buffy was dazed and looked at her hands. They were covered with blood, Faith's blood. She dropped the knife and looked blankly at Faith. She came to her senses and quickly grabbed Faith who was teetering on the edge. And just in time, she saw Faith losing her balance and pulled her over. Part of her wanted Faith to fall to her death and become a footnote in history. However, she needed Faith as her mind raced back to Angel.
Faith smiled faintly and said nothing as Buffy carried her. Faith started to laugh weakly and cry simultaneously. She had always wanted Buffy to hold her and love her. Ironically, part of her wish had come true however she could barely respond, her arms tingled and felt heavy.
Instead, she moaned, "Buffy." However, Buffy didn't look down. Buffy continue to carry her as she ran. She kept calling out for Buffy but Buffy would not look down.
Then she felt herself being placed on a hard surface and Buffy was no longer in view. Faith began to weep and cried out for Buffy.
"Buffy, please don't go . . .Please come back, don't leave me, Buffy. . . I love you."
Faith saw a different face come to view it was Angel. Then she remembered why she was here, she was here for Angel. She didn't care anymore and didn't resist, and submitted. She had no more will power, no more tears, and no more hate. She was exhausted and now longed for peace. Angel brushed away Faith's hair around her neck and studied her neck for what seemed an eternity.
"I can't Buffy," said Angel and backed away. "I just can't do this. Please Buffy don't ask me to do this."
Buffy came next to Angel and held him, and kissed him. Then she went up to Faith and held her hand, and bending down she kissed her. She came back to Angel and looked at him the longest time, and finally bared her neck to him. She guided his mouth on her neck and held him.
