' So how long have you been in love with her? ' He asked in a amused tone but with a hint of realness. The raven-haired slayer whipped her form around, hand balled into fist only to find a certain blond vampire making his way towards her, a lit cigarette placed between his tiers. ' You know I should just dust you know and do Buff-..Wait what in the hell do you mean by ' How long have I been in love with her.' A faint laugh expelled from his tiers as he spoke, holding the half burnt cig between his fingers. ' On come on slayer, you know what I'm talking about, why else would you be standing under her window and in my spot I might add. ' A hint of truth and innocence hidden behind the wall she put up. ' I do not know what the hell you are ranting about dead boy- I-I just came here to check on her. ' He said nothing in response to her statement. He knew the truth and she knew he knew so there was no point in going on. He began to lean up against one of the trees, now facing Faith. He continued to say nothing, talking another deep drag. Faith gaze around with a look of concern upon her face, a few moments later she spoke with a calm, shy voice. ' Since forever I guess ' She shifted her gaze back to the vamp as she continued To speak. ' Its kind of hard not to though.shes everything, everything. ' Spike nodded his agreement as she broke off to take a breath and look towards the window. ' I am planning to get out of California all together. IT will be better for the both of his, for her. ' A ragged sigh admitted from her lovely tiers as she began to walk away. ' Faith. ' A slight smile appeared upon her face as she stopped in her tracks, turning her head a bit to look at him. ' Stay in touch. ' He spoke in a quiet tone. ' Thanks, I will William. ' She begin to walk once more as she disappeared into the darkness. He took one last drag on the cigarette before crushing it under his boots. He gave one last remorseful glance to the window before he started towards his crypt.

Buffy had seen watching the two unknown figures outside her window. Not wanting to find out who they are. She crawled into bed and slowly let her eyes is drop. She did not want to know the truth. Consumed by the fear. Relishing in the rapture.
