Willow stared blankly at the shelf, her mind going on overload about the previous hours happenings.
"Miss, are you going to buy something or stare at the shelf all day?" The shopkeeper snapped from behind the counter, obviously watching Willow's every movement.
'She sounds a bit like Anya' Willow chuckled to herself, missing her family at home. "No..I'm going to buy something, don't worry." She turned around and looked back at the shopkeeper and sweetly added "Would you by any chance have any blessed candles?"
As the shopkeeper busied herself trying to find Willows request. Willow looked around the shop and swiftly moved towards a darkened area of the shop, her curious nature obviously getting the better of her.
"Whats in this area?" Willow called over her shoulder to the lady.
"Dark books, deadly spells and such. Hey! Hold on! I don't want you in there or anyone. It's a private collection. Here, take your candles"
She handed the wiccan the candles, now looking highly irate.
"Is that all you want?" The shopkeeper looked at Willow like she was nothing but a rat on the ground.
"Hmm.. yes I think so" Willow went to the counter and pulled out her purse.
"That will be $9.50"
Willow brought out the respected notes, handing them to the shopkeeper. "Keep the change" Bitch. She picked the candles up and walked out the door.
'Irritable woman, she won't any money by snapping at the customers like that' The redhead thought while quickly walking back to the bus stop for 4 o'clock, the time she had given Faith.
'Faith..' Willow sighed to herself 'I don't get that girl, I don't think I ever will"
Willow stopped, waited for the bus and when it came paid her fee and sat down.
Faith looked at the clock. 4:01
She groaned and continued pacing around the room. 'What am I going to say, what am I going to do??' Faith sighed 'Your losing it faith! It's only Willow..!'
Click
The slayer turned and stared at the door. "Oh crap..Willow" She scrambled around the room and finally settled on the couch, in what she hoped looked like a relaxing position.
The final click was heard and in came Willow. Red hair flowing around her shoulders, her clothes snug tight against her body-'stop thinking like that faith! Your tough and cool not mushy and soft.'
"Er.. hey Willow" Faith smiled and got up "How was the uhh.. Shopping?" Smooth Faith, real smooth.
Willow frowned at Faiths odd behaviour "It was fine.. are you okay?"
The slayer was fidgeting, playing with her shirt. "Oh, okay" She smiled again
Faiths eyes darted everywhere but on Willow and her step was awkward and definitely not the style she was used to, Willow mentally noted.
"You haven't answered by question Faith" Willow asked
"You asked a quest-oh.. sorry, yeah! I'm okay. Ready to lock and load, five by five." The brunette replied hastily and sat down on the couch.
"Did my magic make you act like this?" The wiccan sat across from Faith, looking at her with confusing written over her face.
'Magic?? Ohh yeah, just not other type your talking about' Faith thought. But out loud she said "No, I guess I'm a bit pent up, I haven't slayed for a while"
"Do you want to? Go slaying I mean" Willow suggested
"Right now?"
"It's dark, why not?"
Faith beams with pleasure at the thought of slaying with Willow, the wiccan by her side.
"Sure" She replied
Both girls got up and grabbed their jackets.
"Wait" Faith ran back up to her room and soon returned with a stake and a silver, engraved sword.
"Where'd you find those?" Willow looked at the sword in awe
Faith shrugged "Meh, I was wandering around the house before I found you this morning, I found these in a room about 2 rooms down from the bathroom. Don't worry, we'll put them back when we're done" She smiled and handed the sword to Willow.
"For you, M'lady" Faith winked while pocketing the stake. "Shall me?" She held out her arm.
Willow laughed and put her free arm through Faith's and they walked out of the house together.
