Faith was hanging out in her apartment the next morning when she heard a
knock on her door. She got up and opened the door to see Buffy standing
there, "Mornin' B, didn't know you were coming here."
"I decided to drop by and see how you were doing," Buffy shrugged.
Faith stepped aside to let Buffy in and closed the door behind her, "So what's up?"
Buffy turned to face Faith, "Nothing really."
"You have something on your mind that's bothering you," Faith said, "I can tell by your eyes, they're red. Please tell me Angel didn't do anything to hurt you. If he did I'll kick his ass!"
Buffy shook her head, "No, Angel never did anything. I think it was what I did to him a few years ago."
Faith realized what Buffy was talking about, "B, you're not letting some accident take over your mind are you? It's wasn't your fault or Angel's."
"Thank you Dr. Faith, I feel so much better," Buffy said sarcastically, "I can't get it out of my head. It's some kind of nightmare that won't leave me alone."
"I know how that feels. It's kind of how my watcher died right in front of me; it was horrible. It was stuck in my head until I came here and we both defeated Kakistos. The nightmare was out of my head the next day," Faith told Buffy, "You have to try and forget it, I know it's hard."
Buffy let out a deep sigh then sat down at the edge of Faith's bed, "I try to but it keeps coming back. Killing Angel didn't work, and when he came back.it all starts coming back."
"You're saying that it has something to do with Angel's return?" Faith asked.
"I-I don't know. God, I hope not. I keep thinking it's my fault.I wasn't acting like I should have. I-I was being foolish and I wasn't thinking right," Buffy put her head in her hands.
Faith patted Buffy on the shoulder, "Stop blaming yourself Buffy. It was an accident."
"No it wasn't Faith!" Buffy stood up, "You don't understand.you don't. That accident ruined my life. I was expelled from school, kicked out of my own house for a short while and after sending him to Hell, I left town to try and forget it but I couldn't. This has taken over my life." She opened the door and walked out leaving Faith watching with a sad and confused look on her face.
"I decided to drop by and see how you were doing," Buffy shrugged.
