A/N: Warren is Dawn's age (here about twenty-three), making him two/three years younger than Faith (who I see as being about a year or two younger than Buffy. Buffy was called at 15, Kendra was called at about the same age a year younger than her. And Faith at about 15. Since Joss never told us how old they were in canon, that is just my take on it.)
Oh, and drama alert. Because I couldn't resist.
Tangled Strings and Flimsy Things
Bruised Egos
Kit loved Faith like a sister, but right now, she wanted to scratch the slayer's eyes out if only for the fact that she was sitting next to the bastard who'd broken Kit's heart nearly two years ago. Okay, so it wasn't just because she was sitting next to Warren that Kit wanted to hurt the slayer. It was because they looked intimate. Warren hadn't even called her after their night together, that she had stupidly thought meant something to him. Like it had to her.
"What did you do to Kitten?" a tall man asked from the corner of the room where Buffy had been. Kit's eyes flicked over to Sam Winchester, giving him a small smile.
"Kitten?" Warren spat out, glaring at Sam.
"Don't call me that, Winchester. And I don't have to explain anything to you, Peace," Kit snapped.
"You two know each other?" Faith frowned.
"Intimately," Warren's eyes darkened.
"You piece of shit," Kit's eyes narrowed at him. "We barely knew each other two years ago. A two week acquaintanceship is not intimate." Though it had felt like it at the time.
"Really?"
"What did you want Faith, since Kennedy had no idea what I was here for?" Kit ignored him.
"Nothing. I didn't call ya, Kit," Faith looked like she was thinking something over. "You two knew each other two years ago?"
Kit knew what - scratch that- who Faith was thinking about now. Not that she was completely wrong in the assumption, but since Kit hadn't shared that information with anyone else, she didn't really want Faith blurting it out.
"Until she snuck out of town when I went on assignment -"
"Bullshit. You're the one who snuck out of my bed in the middle of the night and didn't come back!" Kit blurted out.
"You slept with one of my watchers, bro?" Faith turned to him.
"Bro?" Kit frowned at them, her eyes widening as she remembered what she'd read in Faiths file when Giles had asked her to put it in the computer records. "You're Faith's little brother?"
"You're one of her watchers?"
"Does he know about the baby?" Sam asked out of the blue.
"Baby?" Warren's head snapped up, his body following. "What baby?"
"Thanks, Winchester," Kit snapped.
"What baby?" Warren demanded.
"My kid, not that it's any of your concern. You banged a MILF, are you happy?" Kit glared at him. "Look, if I'm not needed, then I have to tell my ride so I can get back to New York."
"You drove from New York? Because Kennedy or Faith called you?" Warren stared at her, realizing she was trying to take the focus off this mystery kid she had. "You left your kid at their beckoning."
"I flew into Detroit, dropped off some paperwork at Harris House and got a ride down to Lima. And - not that it's any of your business - I left my daughter with my cousin in New York. Where she's perfectly safe."
"You left Corinne with Rick?" Faith frowned at her.
"No, of course I didn't leave her with Rick. Alexis is on spring break. She's watching Cori," Kit rolled her eyes.
"Isn't Alexis sixteen?"
"Alexis is the most responsible sixteen year old in the world," Kit sighed. "She practically raised her father."
"Why isn't Corinne with her father?" Warren frowned, a sinking feeling in his stomach telling him he wasnt going to like the answer.
"Cause he's a tool who didn't use protection and bailed on our Kitten the morning after," a deep voice came from behind Kit.
Sam groaned, Buffybot grinned and Warren looked more on-fire than he had a minute ago. Kit jerked her elbow back into Dean Winchester's stomach. This definitely wasn't the way she wanted to tell Warren that he was a daddy.
