Abandonment
Chapter 1
Xander looks over to Vicky as the leave Nevada and enter California. They haven't spoken much in the last three days about what is going to happen in SunnyDale. Xander has tried to bring it up but Vicky just seems to tone him out.
"You know for a girl that wouldn't let me get around a tough subject you are doing a great job of it. Talk to me Vicky, I need to know what you want to do in Sunnydale. You should get ready to start college and pursue other interest then just fighting vampires."
"Trust me Xander what I will pursue is none of your concern. What are you going to be doing or who are you going to be doing in SunnyDale?" Vicky asks with a hurt and mean tone.
Xander just looks at her with an annoyed expression, "Fine you don't want to talk about it. Yes I am going to be with Faith. She needs me and I need her. She has been given a chance to live again and I don't want to pass on it. She would do the same for me. I am sorry Vicky that it hurts. I know we said we would try a date when we got back but we also knew that is was possible it would never happen between us. I care for you Vicky but I love her. I could not stop loving her. So there it is."
"You are right Xander. I my not be happy but there were no promises of a relationship. Trust me when I say that she is not the only girl for you. She may be the right one but not the only one." She went back to staring out the window while Xander drove on. By tomorrow night they would be in SunnyDale. He would be with her and she would pick up in the big fight to save the world. Maybe there will be some cute guys she can hook up with. They might even be able to make her as happy as he did.
They stop later that night and all got separate rooms. Xander and Vicky laid awake most of it missing the other person that would usually sleep in the room. Xander knows with getting Faith he won't be alone again and Vicky knows she can get people to take his place. The world is a very big place after all. The phone next to Vicky's bed rings and she goes to answer it.
"Hello."
"I wanted to know if you would like to grab an early breakfast. It still is the most important meal of the day."
"Sure Xander let me get dressed and join you in the lounge."
"Thanks. I will see you there." Xander hangs up the phone.
Vicky looks at the phone and smiles a little. She hangs it up and starts to get ready for breakfast. She heads down and sees Xander sitting in a booth with a cup of coffee and a soda for her.
"Thanks for joining me Vicky. I just want you to still be my friend. Your right maybe in some life you could have been but for this one it is her. I wish I could take away your hurt but I can't. I will be there for you if you need be. You don't have to worry about me leaving you completely. I just need to be with her."
Vicky just looks at him with sad eyes, "I know Xander. For a few moments on that trip I felt so close to you. I understand her more now from it. I know what she is to you. In some life maybe it could have been me but I won't stop being your friend. Besides you still owe me for the demon in Topeka and the Zombies out side of Oklahoma." She replied with a sweet smile.
"First off I have saved your ass more then you have saved mine. And if the Zombie didn't rip open your shirt while you were wearing the push up I wouldn't have gotten that distracted that you would have to save me." Xander shoots back with a lopsided grin as he remembers her figure.
Vicky blushes a little, "That was all part of my master plan to get you to notice me like that." As she fishes she is just smiling at the memory.
"We had some good times Vicky. Thank you for that. It really did help out a lot."
"Remember Xander I will help you whenever you need. Also remember I will never be afraid of you as long as you are alive." They just sat together for the rest of the meal enjoying each others company some thoughts drifting to what ifs but mostly just happy with what ares.
SunnyDale
Spike is looking around his destroyed crypt. "With those bleedin eggs gone I am never getting out of this town. Bloody hell Cardboard and the bint needed to come here and destroy my place. Well at least the Whelp isn't back yet. Wait till he finds out just how good his girl is in bed." Spike turns to see Faith is standing in the wrecked door way. "Let me get a new mat and we can continue are fun. I really need a good shag to get over this and your fine body is just what the Doctor ordered."
"Its over Spike. I don't want you to touch me. Lex is coming back for me and you don't measure to him."
"That's not what I heard you screaming last week. I know you remember that side trip from patrol to get your dose. Baby I am so in your blood you won't know what to do. You think Lex can make you feel alive like I do. In the end of a week you will be sneaking off on him and come crawling back to me. You will and then you can drop this belief you belong with the living. You are of the night like me. You crave me more then to slay. You what me so much I can smell your arousal from here." Spike takes a few steps towards Faith. He has removed his shirt and undid the button of hi pants. "Why do you even bother hidden it from me. You think your Lex will take you back. We all know he gots the new Slayer. He did what two weeks of missing you after you died. He only is coming back because of what you can do in bed." Spike is right in front of her and starts to lift up her shirt.
Faith grabs his arm and pushes him away. "No Lex loves me. He isn't doing anything but killing your kind with the new Slayer. Giles already told us this. He is coming for me and that is it. You are scum Spike. He won't know we ever happened and he would never believe you over me. So stay away from me and him Spike." She turns and walks away from him.
"Trust me Slayer he will believe and when you come to me I will finish breaking what ever spirit you have left. You will be a good slave. Mark my words slut you will be." Spike gets off the ground and does up his pants.
Neither of them notices the Dawn who was able to hear what was said from both of them. She has been following Faith around for awhile and is glad to not have been spotted yet. She knows what she must do but not sure if it what she should do. Faith saved her from being killed to open a portal. Xander has saved her on many occasions also. She made her choice and ran after Faith. She was able to catch up with her before she got out of the cemetery. "Faith." She yelled.
"What," Faith spun around to see Dawn just staring at her, "Baby D. should you be in bed right now?"
"Probably but you shouldn't be having sex with Spike either. I ignore one you ignore the other." Dawn said with a straight face and a demeaning tone.
Faith was taken back by the statement, "You don't know what you are talking about. I would never touch Spike like that. If you are doing this to ruin my relationship with Lex it won't work. He knows I would never and that is all that matters." She turns around and walks away from her.
"Would video or pictures prove it to him? I can make a website out of the stuff if you want. Give him the address www.spikeandfaithhavingsex.com and see all he wants. What do you want to do about it now?"
Faith had tears in her eyes "Please no, it is over and I need to have Lex back. It is so empty in life with out him. Spike was using me playing with my emotions. I finally stopped it and can get past it."
Dawn just looks at Faith with disbelief. "You are a very sad person Faith. You wallow in self pity about leaving heaven and being back here. Instead of talking to us you sleep with Spike. After everything that happened with Buffy and Lex over Angle you do it and make it worse by begging for it. I have seen enough. You could have asked for help from one of us. You could have told Buffy and she would have at least dusted Spike to remove the temptation. He might have used you the first time the second time it became the way you wanted. Get help Faith, Lex won't be able to solve this problem. You won't like what happens when he finds out especially if you lie to him about it." Dawn turns around a walks away from her.
Faith watches her walk away. She knows Lex would leave her if she found out about it and she knows there is nothing she can do to stop it from happening. She runs after Dawn in hope that a solution will come that will help her.
