May the truth be spoken (6)

'What?' Buffy says near tears after having such a great time last night with Angel at the dance she is in total shock, 'are you sure?'

'Yes Buffy I am so sorry,' Sarah says also with tears in her eyes, Faith hasn't said anything and was just sitting on the side of the bed, Buffy sits down and breaks into tears,

'Faith…Faith, I'm sorry, are you ok?' Sarah says kneeling down in front of her, Faith lifts her head up and you can see fire and fiery in her eyes,

'I will be' she gets up from the bed and walks out of the room, Sarah watches and decides it is best to leave her, she walks back over to Buffy who had calmed down,

'Buffy, I'm sorry, I would never had thought they were capable of that, I mean I've known them for like ever' she says comforting her friend, Buffy lifts her head and looks at Sarah and smiles,

'Its ok, I'm fine, I make it a habit never to trust guys' she says standing up and wiping away her tears, but she can feel more forming behind her eyes, she had really had a great time last night at the dance and she was sure he had too, she knows that Sarah said they agreed to stop the bet because they didn't want to hurt them but she knew that wouldn't stop Faith from doing whatever it takes to make them pay, and in the back of her head she really wanted to help.

Next Morning

Faith has left early this morning, she'd taken the car and left a note for Buffy telling her Cordy would pick her up.

Faith drives down to the school; she knows the boys have practice today for the big game on Saturday, she is dressed all in leather, she has on a pair of tight black leather trousers with a tight leather tank top, and her high heeled leather boots, she has her hair down all messy like she had it when she first danced with Spike at the Bronze. She heads to the football field where the boys are practicing and sits down on the benches where they cant see her, after a few minutes Spike senses someone watching him, he turns round to the benches but she's gone, he shrugs it of and carries on practicing with the rest of the team.

30minutes later the boys head to the changing rooms to get dressed for school, Spike walks into the changing rooms and sees Faith sitting in a very flirty position on the bench by the lockers, he raises an eyebrow and smirks he turns to the rest of the guys,

'Um…Why don't you guys hit the showers' Gunn looks into the changing room and sees Faith, he looks at Spike and smirks and pats his shoulder,

'Sure thing' he grins and turns to the team, ' Come on guys' they all start talking and smirking at what they think will happen between Spike and Faith.

Spike walks into the changing rooms and closes the door, Faith smirks knowing he thinks he is going to get lucky, she gets up and slowly walks over to him, she pushes him against the wall so he cant move,

'Huh…' he grins, ' I guess you like being in control, ah love' he smirks, she grins tempting him to kiss her, after a few seconds he leans in for a kiss, she pushes his head back and has a disgusted look on her face,

'You're a pig Spike!' she yells at him,

'Uh love what are you talking about?' he asks confused, she smirks and starts to giggle frustrated, she lets him go and walks away from him,

'You really think I wouldn't find out didn't you?' she whispers to herself more than to him, he walks toward her,

'Faith what are you talking about?' he asks now losing his patience he has no idea what she is talking about, she spins round to face, just looking at him made her want to hit him and instead of holding it in she let it out,

'You bastard!' she yells and slaps him round the face, 'I no…I no what you were planning, you and Angel!' Spike eyes widen

'Oh god, Faith…I'm so sorry' he moves his hand towards her,

'No, don't touch me!' she says pushing his hand away from her,

'Faith please, I'm sorry, I…'

She cuts him off,

'Huh, your sorry, yeh of course you are, but that don't help you now Spike, you really screwed up and I'm gunna make sure you pay…' she walks toward him and looks him in the guys you can see fire in her eyes, ' And you will pay Spike' her voice is threatening, she backs away and walks out the room slamming the door behind her, he watches her go but cant stop himself from going after her,

'Faith! Please, I am so sorry' he begs her, she turns round to look at him

'No Spike, I am…' he looks up with hope in his eyes, '…for ever falling for a jerk like you' she turns and walks off leaving Spike standing there.

Faith storms out the building and walks to the curb, Buffy, Cordy, Willow and Sarah had just arrived, and she walks up to them,

'Faith! Why'd you leave so early and why'd you take the car?' Buffy moans,

'Chill B, I had some things to take care of' Faith explains,

'You didn't do anything did you Faith?' Buffy asks worried,

'Only what I needed to' she says with a smile,

Gunn, Angel and Xander walk out of the changing rooms talking and laughing,

'Hey Faith!' Gunn calls with a smile on his face,

'What's up Gunn?' she asks

'Whatever you did to Spike, it sure left a mark' he grins at her getting the wrong idea, Spike had been very quiet when they went to get changed, he left without a word, Faith smiles,

'Well I'm glad and I hope he got the message' she smirks,

Angel walks over to Buffy and wraps an arm around her waist,

'Hey Buffy' Buffy smiles but still feels hurt about what he and Spike had done, Faith sees and looks disgusted she walks off without a word, Buffy sees her walking off, she pulls away from Angel and jogs over to stop her,

'Faith!' she calls to her to stop,

'What?!' she asks a little mad

'I know how you feel, they did it to me too' she explains

'Yeh they did, except you seem to be fine with the whole thing' she says bluntly,

'What? Faith I hate what they did to us but its over'

'No B, not yet it isn't' she turns and walks off.

Buffy walks back over to her friends she sees Angel staring at her with a worried expression on his face, she smiles faintly so he knows she's ok,

'What was that about?' Cordy asks as Xander keeps her in his tight embrace,

'Nothing, she's just tired had a long night, you know cramming the books and stuff' she puts on a fake smile and walks towards the school, Sarah leaves Gunn and runs over to Buffy,

'Hey?' Buffy turns round to face her, 'You gunna be ok?' she asks,

'Yeh,' she looks over to where Faith had gone, 'I'll be better than she is' she turns round and walks off.

At the basketball courts and Spike's still playing he hadn't bothered to get changed he just left the changing room and went to the outside courts to practice and let of some steam, the bell had gone but he just ignored it,

'I cant believe this happened, I am so stupid for doing this to her, I really screwed up' he thought, he shot the ball to the hoop but he threw it way to hard and it hit against the back board and all the way across the court, he turns round and sighs, he starts to jog over to it not looking up,

'Lose something?' came a voice; he looks up and sees Buffy standing there, he is shocked to see her,

'Uh Buffy, hi' he says weary, she has the ball in her hands and is bouncing it while walking towards Spike,

'You know this isn't over don't you?' she says calmly, he looks at her confused, 'You know with Faith, she wont stop until you pay' she explains, he hangs his head and whispers,

'I know' she looks at him with slight sympathy, then it leaves her she side grins,

'Looks like you chose the wrong, girl' he looks up shocked,

'What?' she tilts her head

'Come on Spike think about it, if you had chose me to do the dare with Angel would be having this problem with Faith, not you' she carries on explaining, she takes the ball in her hands and shoots the ball spins round the hoop and after 2 spins drops into0 the hoop, Spike smiles at her shot,

'Nice' he says,

'Thanks' she smiles at herself for her great shot, 'Now back to you and my sister, you really need to make things better, or else this whole thing will get way out of control' she tackles Spike is just standing there holding the ball, she takes it off him and shoots again and scores she lifts her arms up,

'Yay!' Spike smirks, and grabs the ball again, he is more relaxed now, he feels better talking to someone about it all even if that person happens to be one of the girls the dare was about and Faith sister.

'Buffy?' he says more like a question,

'Yeh?'

'Do you think she'll ever forgive me?' he looks deep in her eyes with pain in his, she sees the pain,

'I honestly don't know Spike, I guess that's up to you and her'

'But… how come you seem so calm with Angel, you know he don't know you 2 know… did that make sense' he laughs at the way he phrased his sentence she smiles,

'I know Spike, and I aint as calm as you think about the whole thing, I just know how to control it better, Faith, she's more of the type of person to act out what she feels and Spike…'she looks him in the eyes, 'she will act it out' she says seriously making sure he realises just how serious things are, but she had a feeling he already knew.

They finish their game both not realising how long they had been playing, it was now lunch time Buffy had missed her second and third lesson and Spike hadn't bothered to go to any of his lessons, they start to walk of the court when Spike stops and grabs Buffy arm to stop her from walking any further she looks at him confused until he says,

'Thanks Buffy for everything, you didn't have to help me after… what I did' she smiles,

'That's ok Spike, I hate seeing Faith like this, she has been hurt too many times in the past' she sees more guilt and pain in his eyes after she said that, she smiles slightly to cheer him up a bit he lifts his head and kisses her lightly on the cheek,

'Thanks' he smiles a little and walks off the court, Buffy watches him go with wide eyes and her last words before she leaves the courts are,

'O OH'
