The Past Returns: Chapter Two
"Spike?" called Faye softly as she stood outside of Spike's room. No answer came so, she decided to knock. "Spike?" she called once again but a little louder this time.
"What is it Faye? I'm not in the mood", he called from the inside.
"That's not a surprise. Let me in".
"Whatever it is it can wait till the morning".
"Stop being a jerk and open the damn door".
"Will that get you to go away sooner?" he asked.
"Maybe it will".
A short time later Spike, who had a grin, opened the door, which he leaned against, and
now staring at Faye. "Yeah?"
"I just came by to see if everything was alright. Actually, Jet and I tossed a coin to see who was going to be the one to check up on you, I apparently lost."
"I believe that. So, now that you're here are you going to keep tabs on me?"
"Don't flatter yourself, I have better things to do". Faye at this point noticed Spike was staring intensingly at her and it made her feel uncomfortable. "What? Why are you staring at me that way?"
"What way?"
"Spike, have you been drinking?"
He leaned closer to her. "What if I have?"
Faye could now definitely smell the alcohol on him. "Forget I even asked" with that she turned around and was about to leave when Spike grabbed her by the arm. She found herself face to face with him with only a few inches from each other. "Umm . . . are you
okay?"
"No, at least not when I'm around you".
Faye was speechless as they continued to stare at one another; and it seemed as if they were coming closer and closer together. She was melting into Spike's grasp and look. Over the past few months she had developed these 'special' feelings towards him. Faye chose the word 'special' because she was afraid she had fallen in love with him, a man who loves someone else, someone who was probably far more attractive then her and a much better person. And of course being the hard frisky woman that she is, she chose to set those feelings aside.
"You know people say you tell the truth when you're drunk", with those last words that Spike said, he himself closed his eyes and leaned in for the kiss.
Faye, on the other hand, pulled away upon hearing these words. "Yeah but people also say that you do and say the craziest things". She then loosened herself from his grasp and left a bewildered and drunken Spike standing in the corridor.

The next morning Faye awoke early caused by the incident she had with Spike the night before. She walked into the living room, wearing a peachish color silk nightgown that came to her thighs and had the silk night robe that match and which also came to her thighs, and glanced at the clock, which read 8:15am.
"Argh! So early in the morning, damn you Spike."
Seeing there was no one up yet she walked over to the TV, grabbed the remote control, and sat down on the couch.
"I might as well take advantage of the time while those thickheaded people snore the morning away".
She realized that a tape was inside the old broken down VCR so, being the noisy person that she is, it was natural the Play button was pushed "accidentally". On the tape was the recording she took of herself when she was, or at least seemed like, about 15 years old.
"Yaay, go me! I'll always be here to comfort you", the girl on the tape cheered.
Faye knew it was her but when and where she didn't know. She rewinded and played the tape over and over again, as if by playing the tape over it would hopefully trigger a sparkle in her memory.
"Faye Faye whatcha doin?" Ed asked.
"Oh damn you're already up. And me just sitting here actually thinking I would have a few peaceful minutes to myself, how stupid of me", she said to herself as she switched off the TV.
"Hey Faye, you up already?" asked Jet as he entered the living room.
"Yeah, and you? I see you're up as well".
"This is my regular rise and shine time. Must go take a bath before you use up all the hot water again. Oh, there's the breakfast I need to prepare".
"First of all it's not my fault I use up the water, it's your fault for not fixing the Bebop right".
"What?"
"That's right, if it wasn't for your lousy plumbing these things wouldn't happen. And secondly, you really need to go attend a cooking class".
"Well I don't see you object to the food I place in front of you. I already took you once before if you don't like it then don't eat it", Jet then left and went directly to the bathroom.
"Why should I even bother to continue to argue with men who are pigheaded?"
"What about men?" Spike asked as he entered the living room in his gray sweat pants and white muscle shirt.
"I was that men are selfish pigheaded assholes that don't accomplish much to anything".
"Why all the anger toward men? Is it because you can't fond one for yourself?"
"More like I can't find a man who will satisfied me, he would have to throw in overtime. Like you would know what I was talking about".
"What if I do?"
"Somehow I doubt that", she then got off the couch and was making her way to the corridor, deciding to bang the bedroom door; hoping to annoy the hell out of Jet and get him to emerge out of the bathroom. However, was stopped once again by Spike's grasp.
"Faye listen, about last night . . ."
"What, what about last night?"
"Don't pretend to act as if nothing happened".
"But nothing did happen. You were just drunk and didn't realize what you were saying and doing, that's all".
"I might have been drunk but I knew exactly what I was doing and saying".
"What are you getting at?" Faye asked nervously.
"Ooo – La – La, what are Spike person and Faye Faye up to?" Ed asked seeing that Spike held Faye very closely.
Faye at this interruption stepped away. "N – Nothing why?"
"Cause Edward could have sworn that something was happening between Spike person and Faye Faye, right Ein?"
Ein wagged his tail and shook his head in agreement.
"Well you're wrong and instead of coming to wild conclusions you should tracking the
whereabouts on this Shin person", with that said Faye stormed out of the room.
"What's wrong with Faye Faye, Spike person?"
Instead of answering Ed, Spike simply smiled "I guess I'm finally getting to her".
