{{"You don't deserve this, your so much more than a common prostitute"br
"Whateva" Faith turned to walk away from herbr
"Your a slayer Faith, come to my home, you can't live on the streets forever" br
'A home' Faith thought 'has to be better than here'br
"Yea sure" Faith followed her she didn't care what kind of shit the chick was on as
long as she got a roof over her head}}
p
"Hey" Buffy said softly as she walked into the room.br
"Hey" Faith repliedbr
Buffy sat down next to her and looked at Faiths half packed suitcase "Don't you want
to come back?"br
"Of course I do B, I love you, I couldn't stand to be apart"br
Buffy smiled "So what's wrong?"br
"It scares me sometimes"br
"What does?"br
"How much I love you, I never thought I could love anyone"br
Buffy wrapped her arms around Faith
"I'll always be here Faith, you don't need to be scared"br
"I can't help it, I always told myself it'd be weak to fall in love, so I never let myself
and now that I have it's scary, for the first time in my life I feel I need someone else,
and I never wanted to depend on people, they only let you down"br
Buffy tightened her hold on Faith "I promise you I'll never let you down Faith" She
gently kissed Faith trying to give her assurance.
p
{{"So what's the deal here, what do you want from me?"br
"I don't want anything from you Faith, you're chosen, you have a sacred birthright to
protect mankind"br
"uh huh" Faith looked around the house, this chick seemed pretty crazy but she had a
nice place and Faith could put up with the crazy chick if it meant she had a home}}
p
Faith walked down the path and looked at the cab waiting for her, she turned back and
smiled at Matthew who walked up to her and gave her a hug "You're always welcome
here Faith, I'll always consider you my daughter"br
"And you'll always be my dad" Faith replied giving him a kiss on the cheek before
walking to the cab and getting inbr
"Ready to go home?" Josh asked as Buffy intertwined her fingers into Faiths. Faith just
nodded.
p
Faith threw herself onto her bed and grinned up at Buffy who sat down next to her.
"I think we need to talk Faith"br
"I knew this was coming" Faith said as she sat up and faced Buffybr
"It's just we suddenly got into this relationship and I'm not sure about where I stand, I
know you love me, but - "br
"I guess I kinda took it for granted that things would just be a given, like our
relationship, I want to spend my life with you B, your the only person I've ever loved"br
Buffy smiled and leaned over and kissed her "I love you so much Faith, more than
Angel, which I never thought was possible and I wanna spend my life with you"br
Faith leaned over and kissed Buffy softly "We'll work everything out B, it might take a
bit of time, there might be a lot of mistakes, but for the first time in my life I love
someone enough to try"
