It was only matter of seconds before the doors were ripped open and in front of him stood the brunette slayer, with an angry expression upon her pale face. Xander hadn't even realized what time it was until he had seen her angriness.
"Xander?" Her expression softened, she opened up the door a bit wider "Come on in"
Xander hesitated for a while then followed the slayer inside. The apartment was bit of a mess, which was probably because of their sudden import
"Wesley is asleep, don't get too loud" Faith warned
"Yeah, we all know how cranky those British watchers´ can be when they wake up" Xander stated
"So, you came to catch up or is some evil arising?" Xander asked
"I don't know. You tell me" He realized how harsh it had come out and he felt immediately guilty
"Oh, ouch" Faith said
They spent a while in silence, Xander studying the apartment from the place he stood at while Faith stared at her feet, both waiting for the silence to break
"I'm sorry" Xander finally forced out. He didn't know if she deserved to be apologized to, but he knew it felt right to him.
"I'm sorry, Xander. For everything I've done and for everything I did to you" Faith said, fighting her own tears. The subject was really touchy but it needed to be discussed
Xander couldn't face her. He knew what she was referring to. They both did. He had never gotten an apology for her action and he had certainly not expected it. The past was the past. He had moved on. When he had been asked if he was okay he had nodded, forced a smile, though his physical pain was painful the emotional had been worse. The events in Faith's motel room were something he had to bear for the rest of his life. He had come to her, the first one. Volunteered to help her. Get her through and she had attempted to kill him. If Angel hadn't shown up, he wouldn't be standing right there and having these conversation.
Faith stared at him for a while, waiting for him to speak up. But nothing came out. Xander suddenly broke himself out of his own thoughts and stared at the slayer.
"´Sorry´ was nice to hear" Xander stated
"I know" Faith agreed, another intolerable silence hit the room
"So" Faith started to pace "I have a slaying agenda"
"You mind if I come along?" Xander asked
"Not at all" Faith forced a smile

The phone rang in Willow Rosenberg's apartment, bringing the former witch fully awake. Reaching for the pocket of her jacket that lay at the floor, but returning with empty hands. Her eyes fluttered open as she realized that she didn't even have a mobile phone.
She rubbed her eyes as she picked up the phone "Hello?"
"Willow? Hey - - it's Dawn" Dawn greeted
Willow raised herself up "Dawn, sweetie is something wrong?"
"No, not at all. I was just wondering if I could stay with you for few days" Dawn said
"And is you dad agreeing all that?" Willow asked
"He just needs to speak with you, making sure I'm not sneaking behind his back or something" Dawn said
"Yeah, sure just put him on" Willow said

Xander eyes fluttered open as he found himself in a bed that didn't belong to him. It took only a second for him to realize that he had been fighting last night. The ache in his body could confirm that.
"How are you?" A soft female voice sounded from right and he figured that he wasn't alone in bed. By sudden striking panic he jumped up and realized that he was still wearing pants and a T-Shirt. Faith lay at the bed fully dressed too, staring at him, puzzled.
"Faith - What am I doing here?" Xander asked
"Well, You got pretty well beaten up last night and since I don't know where your apartment is I brought you here in your unconsciousness" Faith explained
"Well, next time right a note above the bed or something" Xander said as he shot a glare to the ceiling
"I'll have that covered next time" Faith forced a grin. But it was a sad one "Xander?" She slowly asked
"Hmm?" Xander asked as he put his sweater on
"I want you to know, you can talk to me. Whenever you feel down or anything"
"Wow, why the sudden drama?" Xander asked
Faith paused "I saw your scars"
"I have to go" Xander said, really wishing that this conversation hadn't been real
: : :
Xander groggily entered his apartment Assuming Spike to be asleep. He knew by experience that British watcher´ were nothing compared to newly awoken up British vampires´
But Spike was certainly not asleep because just when Xander turned around from the door, the blonde was standing right in front of him. Xander stumbled backwards, shocked.
"Spike. God damn it!" Xander cursed as he tried to catch his breathing again
"I want answers - Like where were you last night?" Spike commanded, crossing his arms and waiting for answers
"That is none of your business" Xander muttered as he slightly limped past him
Spike paused "Just tell me you did nothing stupid"
"I did nothing stupid" Xander faced the vampire "Gosh, Spike I'm fine. I spent the night at Faith's - - And no we did not have sex!"

A/N: Well, that was the end of chapter 4. Hope you liked it. Sorry how long it took to update. But you know.. the holiday season and everything. And I may have to mention that I suffered from some kind of writer's block. Every time I sat down in front of my computer I didn't know what to write. So please, review me. Tell me if I'm losing the touch. That'll be great. Thanks to everyone on my review list - You guys are the best,
