Xander ran as fast as he could. He needed so badly to find her. The feeling creeping in his stomach was indescribable. But it felt like love. He had never experienced that kind, not even with Anya.
Every thought of her made him run faster. Suddenly it started to rain, Xander stopped, gasping for air. Something about the rain made him feel frightened.
He was in the cemetery. Clutching the stake in his pocket as he kept going.
"Faith!" Xander called out as he scanned the area "Faith!"
He started to run again. Panicking when he heard the painful cry.
He found her at the wet, muddy ground. Her face, clothes were covered in mud. He rushed over and knelt beside her. She was holding her hand over her chest the wound was bleeding incredible, trying to find a way to escape her body
"Faith" Xander cried as he shot a look at the wound
"Xa - Xander" She whimpered, shivering because of pain "I- I'm not gonna live"
"Yes you are. Yes you are, Faith. Just keep looking at me" Tears were flowing out of his eyes
"We're gonna get you through this" Xander said as he took off his jacket and pressed it against her wound
Faith winced in pain, trying to raise oneself to get a good look at her deathblow
"No. Stay still" Xander pushed her gently down
"Xander?" Faith asked, making sure he could still hear her
"Yeah?" Xander asked, trying to smile. But he couldn't. There was nothing reassuring in his eyes. That made Faith so frightening, the pain in his eyes, made her want to kiss him. Tell him everything would be okay.
"Don't feel bad - a - about me lea - leaving" It was getting harder to breathe
"Faith. I love you" Xander cried. He looked away for a bit, not wanting her to see his tears and when he turned his attention back to her, her eyes were no longer alive. They were staring blankly into nothing at all.
"Faith" Xander voice broke and he started to cry. He did no longer care if anyone would see him.
: : :
Xander´s eyes fluttered open. He rolled over to check his alarm clock. It was nearly eleven pm. He cursed himself under his breath as he jumped up. Still fully clothed. He rushed out of his bedroom. The gang was still there. Sitting in the living room savouring on the groceries he had bought earlier.
"Of all people?" Buffy raised her voice "Of all potential slayers it had to be Faith.. again?"
"That wasn´t our decision, Buffy" Willow shrugged "The council sent after her. Don´t ask me why"
Xander paused in his steps. The gang didn´t even notice him.
"There something between Xander and Faith?" Buffy shot a look at Spike
Spike shrugged "I´m sure it´s nothing serious"
"Faith, hurted him one. Don´t you remember" Buffy said, "I can´t believe he´s going to make the same mistake again"
"Maybe Faith has changed" Cordelia suggested
Buffy frowned "She hurted us all"
"She´s willing to make up for that" Xander raised his voice to get into their conversation. The gang shot their attention to the newly awaken boy "She. Has. Changed"
"Xander, I want what is best for you. Believe me I do" Buffy stood up and walked slowly towards him "Just be careful around her"
"There´s no need to be, I trust her" Xander said "And I certainly hope that one day you trust her too"
Buffy looked at the floor. Then back up, her expression more serious than ever
"Just tell her if she does anything to hurt you or any of us. She´s gonna face some major confrontations"
Xander shared a little moment with Buffy staring directly into her eyes. Realizing that he was running out of time, he broke the eye contact. Then grabbed his jacket and shoes.
"There will be no need for that" Xander said
"Umm" Dawn muttered with a full mouth of potato chips "Where are you going?"
Xander ignored her as he rushed over to the phone, picking it up and dialling Faith's number. He waited for a while until Wesley's voice sounded at the other line
"Wesley!" He was panicking "Is Faith around?"
"No, she's not" Wesley said
"Is she around the morgue?" Xander asked, hoping it had just been a nightmare. But somehow he doubted it.
"Uh, yeah, yes. How did you- - ?" The only thing he could hear was the dial tone
"Xander?" Spike stood up "What's the matter?"
"Fai - Faith's about to die, unless I do something" Xander said as he grabbed his shoes
"Okay you need to calm down" Spike said as he grabbed the boy by the wrists
"Let go off me" Xander struggled to break free
"Xander, you need some medical attendance" Spike whispered, making sure the girls wouldn't hear him
"I'm not insane!" Xander screamed, "You don't believe me. Fine. Don't believe me. But I need to do something about this. I'm running out of time, here"
"Why don't you just let us help you?" Willow had stood up, with Cordelia following
Xander buried his head in his hands, shaking his head "Would you - would you just stop it!"
When he looked up again they were still staring at him. Xander shook his head as he left, running.
: : :
Everything in his dream had been real. The feeling of love, everything he had felt in the dream, he felt it while he was running.
"Faith!" He scanned the area. He could hear fighting few feet away
"Faith!" He rushed over. He could hear Buffy calling his name from the distance. But he didn't care he needed to save Faith.
When he arrived the scene, he saw Faith fighting two demons. He rushed over and jumped at one of them, sending them both to the ground
When Xander struggled to get up he met Faith's eyes. She was staring at him. There was something in her eyes that made her afraid, something behind him. He quickly whirled around to see the demon coming at him. But before the demon could touch him. Buffy was in the way. Fighting with all strength
Faith was fighting the other one. When the demon pulled out a knife, technically a sword. Xander rushed over and pushed Faith away. Before the demon could stab the knife into Xander´s chest, he was brought down by Faith. He landed harshly at the ground, the knife landed at the ground. Faith grabbed the knife, slitting the demon's throat, the demon stood for a while until he finally dropped down.
She turned her attention to Xander, who was lying at the ground. Groaning in pain.
"You were willing to die for me?" Faith asked
Xander raised himself up and scanned the area. Buffy and Spike had finished the other one and were now, staring at the scene in front of them
"Well, you know" Xander shrugged "Figured I would be brought back, anyway. So what the hell"
"You can't be so sure about that, things happen for a reason" Faith smiled slightly
"You´re right" Xander said, "Things do happen for a reason"
He stood up and faced Faith "You came to Sunnydale for a reason. You were my cure. You helped me when no one else could.. You´re my Faith.. I love you" The sincerity in his eyes made Faith melt, she threw her arms around his shoulders, with a slight grin
"You love me? Isn´t that a bit slapdash?" Faith asked with her famous grin
"Just shut up and kiss me" Xander grabbed her by the waist lifting her off the ground while a hungry, passionate kiss occured
