A few days had passes since Buffy and Faith had spoken. Faith had been to the local Magic Box in town were she had brought supplies for a truth spell. She's had enough of Buffy's bullshit. As she opened the door to her motel room, she threw the supplies on the bed and threw a fist at the wall. She had really messed up. Was Buffy right? Did she rape her? If so it was never meant to be like that. That night was becoming a blur to Faith, but was she over stepping the line again using magic to make Buffy tell the truth?

Faith lit a cigarette and began to place to prepare the ingredients for the spell. Faith had never used magic before, but she was confident in herself that the spell would work. However she then had to get hold of Buffy. Buffy warned her not to come near her ever again. What could she do?

She took a deep breath and began to repeat the following words:

"To see the truth, to know the way, I cast a spell in every day, buy the power of three,
I Conjure thee to give thy truth, unto me."

She then blew out the white candle and felt something so through her as she made her way out of the motel room.

Buffy stopped in her tracks at school as she felt something so through her. Her head felt as it was about to explode, she wanted to be sick and then suddenly she fell into some kind of trance. She walked out of school and decided to go back home to rest. As she returned home she felt her body becoming heavier and her eyes forcing themselves shut. She reached out to grab onto something ,but missed and fell to the floor. As her eyes closed, she saw a figure coming towards her.

Buffy opened her eyes and looked around at her surroundings. She was in the basement of her house and at the far side of the room was...Faith. Buffy swallowed hard as she felt the sick feeling again and her head throbbing.

"Finally, your awake, took yer long enough" Faith said as she walked over to Buffy and sat down to face her.

Buffy tried to get herself up but it seemed like a force was pulling her back down to the floor.

"What's...what the hell Faith? Why am I here? Why are you in my house? I told you to stay away from me!" Buffy spat.

Faith raised her eyebrows and smiled. "You finished? Cause I don't have much time."

Buffy looked at her confused.

Faith cupped her face and moved in close. Buffy tried to pull away from her grip but couldn't take her eyes from Faith's.

"Missed yer B" Faith said with a wicked grin.

"I missed you too Faith" Buffy replied but as she did she shook her head. "What the hell was that? What have you done to me, you sick bitch?"

Faith moved in even closer and gently bit of Buffy's bottom lip.

Buffy gasped and felt butterflies in her stomach but she turned away from Faith's gaze

"What do you want Faith?" Buffy asked.

"Think the question is what do you want B?" Faith replied

"You" Buffy looked at the brunette slayer open mouthed and frowned at her. "Faith, what is this, what have you done? You...oh my god, you used some kinda spell didn't you? First you rape me and now you rape my mind as well! Faith what the hell is wrong with you?"

Faith looked at her watch and back at Buffy. She straddled herself across the blonde slayer and ran her hands down Buffy's arms. "You, that's what wrong with me! I love you B and I hate how I feel, I wish I could make it all go away but..."

"So your solution is to rape me?" Buffy screamed at her.

"I...Buffy please stop saying that! I didn't...it wasn't meant to go that far...I screwed up. Please forgive me. "

Buffy fixed her eyes on Faith's lips and closed her eyes as she thought about kissing her.

Faith traced a finger over Buffy's lips. "I'm sorry, I really am! I just want you to tell me the truth, but your so wrapped up in what everybody else thinks about how you feel. You love me, you want me but your scared"

Buffy narrowed her eyes at Faith and shook her head. "I...want...you to leave me alone.

"Is that what you really want?" Faith continued tracing her finger down Buffy, past her neck to her cleavage.

"No...yes...Faith please...I..."

Faith knew the spell was slowly wearing off it was only temporary, she had to get more out of Buffy before the blonde slayer returned to a normal state of mind. A mind were she blocked out her feelings and lied to herself. "Buffy, do you trust me?"

"I want to trust you, but how can I?"

Faith pulled Buffy in and kissed her, Buffy responded for a moment, but eventually pulled back. "Faith...I...do love you. I want you, but I cant trust you. I can forgive you for what you did to me, but I wont ever forget it."

Suddenly something went through both the slayers and the spell had ended.

Faith was suddenly throw across the room by Buffy, hitting her head on the nearby shelves.

Buffy walked over to Faith and loomed over her. "Get out!"

Faith tried to respond but Buffy pulled her up by her jacket and pulled her up the basement stairs. "I said GET OUT! Buffy felt tears run down her face as she said the words. Faith ignored her and pinned her against the kitchen wall.

"I ain't going no where B, I know how yer really feel, you can block out whatever you feel about me but the truth is, I know everything now. So stop being such a bitch and let yourself love me."

She tried to kiss Buffy but the blonde slayer pulled away. "Faith, no!"

Faith looked confused. "What is your problem? I fucked up and I am sorry. What can I do to make things up to you?"

Buffy sighed. "Faith, this, me and you. It's not gonna work, it cant work."

"WHY THE HELL NOT?" Faith screamed.

Buffy shook her head at Faith and didn't reply.

Faith turned and stormed out of the house. She'd had enough.
