Notes: you can find more of my stories at http/ had been a month, Janet had just gone through the motions. She didn't believe that Xander would go through with it, he would calm down soon and take her back. All she wanted was a chance to make it up to him. She would do whatever he wanted. She had though up these scenarios where Xander would take her back but then he would punish her for what she had done. Those had given her these pleasurable shivers.
But then she got the phone call. Mark Johnson, he was a lawyer in town just about the only one in 12 miles. He had over seen the reading of her fathers will a few years ago. He had received a package for her. When she opened it, in Mark's office, she found out what is was divorce papers.
All she needed to was to sign her name and she would be divorced. She sat back in shock. This couldn't be happening. Xander was to forgive her. She was his, and he was hers they had said it enough of the last few years. Now that was all gone. She felt a darkness grow inside of her. A pit that seemed to suck the very heat from her bones. He was gone.
"Janet," Mark asked, "Just who in the hell is your husband?"
"Huh?" She was not really paying attention what Mr. Johnson was saying. But the Xanders name snapped her back.
"He has Dragun and Son's as his Lawyer, that piece of paper there couldn't have been done for less than 10,000 dollars." Mark sat back watching the soon to be ex Mrs. Harris.
"He has money." Janet told her lawyer, "I don't know how much, I never saw all his bank books. There in account all over the place from what I have seen."
When she said those magic words a lawyer, money, and her husband had a lot. He might be a small town lawyer, but he was still a lawyer, and if he could skin some rick out of town drunk, that starts bar fights, Well that just a plus.
"Janet, I am going to have an investigator look into his past and to see what he is up to. There is just something off about him. He wants to give you $20,000 up front and $1,200 a month. That just a little to much for some that's out of work and with any fighting. Would that be alright?"
"Yea, sure." Janet almost whispered. Xander really wants to leave me. I didn't do anything really wrong! It was just sex! Janet though, Well, I'll just go see him and make him understand.
With that she said her goodbyes to the Lawyer and was out the door. And headed to Xanders. No their home.
London
They would meet in locked rooms. No one else would be allowed in, and the subject of these top secret meetings.
Gossip.
They would talk about who was seeing who or what going on with the others. And the subject of this meeting was Faith.
"She got a new love bunny." Willow said,
"How do you know?" her blond friend said. Taking a sip of the tea. Tea had snuck up on them both, they had been cola girls for a long time, but finally some of Giles had rubbed off on them now if he could just get them to stop calling him G or G-man.
"Well she went to Mississippi to look for Xander, she didnt find him, but she did stay there, and now she moving there."
"Yes, so she moving, that doesnt mean she got a boyfriend there."
"She didnt tell Wood."
"Oh," Buffy sat back, "She moving there and not telling her ex?"
"Yep."
"Still that doesn't mean that she has a lover there."
"Well you know how all the Slayers phones have GPS on them?"
Buffy just nodded her head. She didn't like a phone that did that. She would get call's to come to meeting. And couldn't lie about were she was. One time she had just gotten this sexy of dress, it would have knocked out the Immortals eyes. When she got a call that she was missing a meeting. She told Giles that she was tracking a demon in the down town area. Only to have him ask her how could she be tracking a demon from a dress shop two blocks away from the main Offices.
Stupid phones.
"Well, she never calls from her home, and anyone calls her she never answers for at least 20 minutes, enough time to get out of her home and drive out of the city limits." The Red head told her friend.
"Still..." Buffy hedged.
"There is more." Willow paused. "I tried to use a tracking spell, and it won't work, most of the time."
"What do you mean most of the time?"
Willow pause she really didn't like when her magic failed her.
"There is some one there that we can't track, and when she is with them I cant find her either."
A thought hit Buffy. Hey, she may be blonde but it does happen.
"Willow, you said there was someone there we can't track?" To which the witch nodded her head, "And we sent her there to find some that can't be tracked?"
Willows head jerked up.
"That lying bitch." Willow eyes took a distinct dark turn.
"When are we going?" Buffy asked
"We can't right now. The world ends in three days, and we need to be there. But after that Mississippi here we come, if nothing else we'll kick little Ms. Faiths ass then."
Janet pulled up in front of her old home. Xanders truck was in the front yard and a moving truck was backed up the drive. Beside the trucks stood two motorcycles, on a black custom job and the other a worn road bike.
What the hell? Janet thought as she got out of her little car.What's Xanders old bike doing out, he knows I don't like him riding it.
As she got closer to the house it looked like someone was moving in. The back door was open, and she could see Xander from it walking around the kitchen. He was wearing his sleeping pants. Some cut off sweats really and nothing else. He looks like he had just gotten up. He was fixing breakfast. That much she could tell.
"Hey Xand." Janet began.
He turned to look at her.
"What do you want Janet?" Xander looked at her, his voice was calm and cold. But his eyes were alive with fire, the hate coming off him in waves.
"I got your papers this morning." Janet looked at him, "I don't want a divorce."
"Well too bad your getting one."
Faith had just woken up in Xanders big bed. She felt around for and he was gone. Sitting up she thought about last night. They had been drinking, he was crying on her shoulder about what had happened between him and Janet. The next thing they new they were in bed, watching TV. He was in his sleep pants, her in a thong and too tight t-shirt. They had just laded there and watched some show on discovery channel on how vampires are not real. It was fun pointing out what they got wrong and what they got right. Both had fallen asleep in each others arms. Faith liked it. If when she was with Wood they had never did that, they might have after a hard night. But never just laded there in each others arms and went to sleep. She knew she had it bad. She had started to fall for the guy back in that little dive of a bar after Angel had died. She had watched him travel the world, getting report here and there, sometimes from Slayers that didn't even know who he was. He had changed a lot over the years, and sunk into some dark places but always pulled himself out of them. A few times he had gotten out just in time, and few she thought she would have to go get him.
Then he disappeared, she was lost and thought he had died. The a little bird told her he was in Mississippi, here she had been looking for him all over the world and he was just around the corner from her. Then the bomb had hit he was married. So she sat back and watched him again. He looked happy she made sure no vamps were around, she would drive though once or twice a year. And clear out any in the area. But when The Council had once again found him. She knew she needed to act. And then help him and his wife anyway she could, only he didn't have a wife anymore. That opened some doors she thought were closed, and thou she really didn't really know how to open them. But Faith new that given time, she would find a key.
Hearing his voice, she got up and walked out of the bed room, not really thinking of how it would look. Hell, she was good looking why hide it and maybe it would help find that key she was looking for.
In the kitchen Janet was about to say more when this stunning woman walked out of the back of the house. Wearing only a G-string and T-shirt that was so tight she might as well not have it on. Janet just stood there, then exploded.
"What the hell is that slut doing in my house?" She screamed at Xander, Faith stopped as she was walking in. She had been called worse and by better people than this skank. She was going to yell something back. But stopped to watch Xander almost explode.
"She is not a slut, a slut sleeps around on their husbands, a slut throws out their wedding vows. Faith is not a slut, she is an old friend, and you can leave." You could almost see sparks fly off of home as he started to move. She'd called Faith a slut. That was rich. Faith was a friend. Someone I could cry on their shoulders when no else would let me. One that had cried on my should when her life had fallen apart. Friends, It held a new meaning between them, in the short time they were closer now than he and Willow had been, and she had never tried to push him out and made it a point for him to understand she would be there for him. And she had been.
Faith for her part felt her feeling for Xander grow in leaps and bounds. He had stood up for her, no one had really done that not even Wood. Wood was the peace maker of the new Council, and being that you couldn't take sides. Always the middle ground. Never on her side.
Janet just looked at him, then the tears came. Faith watched Xander, his greatest weakness was a woman in tears. She almost expected him to just walk over and hug her. But he just stood there and looked at Janet. He didn't move one muscle. His eyes never thawed out she had seen vampires with more warmth in them.
Janet looked at him. "I love you, Xander. Please give me another chance." She begged him.
"Nope, no chance you lost that when you fucked John. You gave up a lot for that bit of fun. So get the fuck out and don't come back, only my friends are welcome here!" Xander screamed at her. Faith stood there watching the exchange.
"What you want to get back fucking that slut!" Janet yelled back at him.
"Janet just because you broke or wedding vows doesn't mean I will! Till I am divorced, I will keep it in my pants, Like you should have, now get our or I will call the cops. And you call Faith anything other that by her name I will kick you ass, do you understand she has nothing to do with us, You broke us up, not her she is here for me and will stay as long as she wants. Now get the hell out of here." Xander just looked at her then walked to the phone and picked it up, "Are you leaving or am I calling the cops?"
Janet just turned an fled. The door just bounced back in forth in wind as she had fled the house. She would have him back, she just needed to get rid of the slut.
Faith just looked at him, right then and there she felt it, love. She wanted him and would get him.
"Thanks" she whispered to him.
"What?" Xander asked looking down at the dark slayer.
"No ones ever defend me before." She said with a simple kiss on his cheek.
Just then her phone ran, and a text message blinking from Willow.
It was short and to the point.
(We know.)
Janet sat in her car. Tears running down her face. If that bitch hadn't been there, she would have had him. He could never turn her down. And she hadn't done anything wrong. He was just as guilty as she was, no one walks around like that unless she had done something are going to do something. And the Bitch was after her man.
It would take a while, she would fight the divorce and have her man back. No one takes anything from her. No one.
