groaned aloud and Buffy felt a small smile creep onto her lips. If only everyone else
could see how childish she was in the mornings. Nah, only I can revel in the
sweetness, she thought. Faith turned her head and saw the smiling blonde looking down
at her.
"What?" she asked coyly.
"Just thinking about how cute you are when you wake up." She replied and Faith
quirked an eyebrow.
"Cute?"
"Fine would you prefer sexy?" Faith acted like she was thinking about it.
"Yeah, I think I can do sexy." she replied with a grin and Buffy shook her head as
she leaned in to kiss her. It was short, however, the two had other things to do
before they could just start making out.
"Let's go." Faith said as she got up from were she was laying.
The two followed the trail to where they had gone yesterday. Only this time
they found no one there. They moved in closer and Buffy cringed as she saw the bloody
remains of what once was Riley. Faith gently placed a comforting hand on her back and
walked them further until they spotted huts. Fire pits were by each hut but only one
was lit, it was in front of the biggest hut of them all. Quietly they began to walk
towards it then they spotted two guards outside of it.
The slayers quickly dashed behind a bush, not wanting to be seen. They looked
to see if there was any way to get closer and then they spotted it, an opening that
would be used like a window. They cautiously moved closer to it until they kneeled
underneath. They heard a voice speaking with in.
"This town I shall take you to is called Sunnydale." Both Buffy and Faith looked at
each other with wide eyes, they were going to leave the island.
"We will have to go in through one of the secret caves the initiative has set up
around there. We can not afford to be seen, as my brother learned all to late." The
man said sadly.
"I don't want to lose any of you but I'm afraid it may come to that. That soldier has
already killed one of our men in that trap. You have to go into this battle knowing
your lives may be at stake." No voices of protest were heard.
"I knew I could count on all of you. Tonight we rest and tomorrow we load the boats.
I hope to be out of here in two days. In these two days we will train more, I want
you all at your best." He said firmly.
"Now everyone go back to your huts and sleep." They heard the sound of feet moving
and soon talking as they exited. Luckily the slayers were behind the hut enough not
to be seen.
"Mali and Seth, stay." They heard him command.
"You two are my best fighters. When we go into this I shall assign you both a group.
Train them, teach them to be as good as you two. This battle shall not be lost,
understood"
"Yes." They answered in unison.
"Now...I need to reward you both for you excellent training. Come forth and receive
your honor." Buffy and Faith both peeked in through the window. The leader stuck his
arm out to show a tattoo of a small maroon wolf.
"When you wear this, it signifies that you are truly great." He boasted.
"My brother wore one identical to it and now you two shall also." Both of the men
smiled widely as they sat in chairs. The blonde man clapped his hands and a beautiful
woman with black hair stepped out. In her hand she carried a case. She did not speak
as she pulled out a needle and some dark paint. She used the candle on the table to
heat up the needle then dipped it in, she began to draw.
The men stood after they were finished and lightly glided there fingers
across they're prize. The leader patted them both on the back.
"We are one now, you guard my life and I guard yours." He stated.
"Thank you Ben." Seth said with admiration.
"Shall we head to our homes now?"
"Yes Seth, you may go but Mali I need to speak to you." They watched Seth leave then
listened attentively to what he had to say.
"You better take care of him Mali, your his older brother, your blood. Watch after
him with your own life. Once he's gone...I would give anything to have my own brother
back." A sad look came to Ben's face.
"I promise, I won't let him or you down." Ben smiled and placed a hand on his
shoulder.
"Go now." Mali nodded and left. Faith looked at Buffy and motioned her head towards the jungle.
Sunnydale
Xander knocked on Gile's door as hard as he could. The sound of someone
shuffling around inside could be heard. A hand was placed on Xander's shoulder and he
yelled turning around hastily. Willow smirked at him and he glared at her.
"This is Sunnydale, you shouldn't sneak up on people like that."
"Sorry Xand." Willow responded as Giles opened his door.
"Shall we go now?" He asked with a bag in his hands.
"What's in the bag?" Xander asked
"Weapons."
"Ooohhh weapons, hm, kind of strange you bringing weapons and not thinking something
is going on." Xander remarked
"Yes but it is better to be prepared. Let's go now." He replied as he walked to his
car with Willow and Xander behind him.
Island
Buffy and Faith lye on the sandy beach, Faith running a comforting hand down
Buffy's back. The blonde snuggled in closer and sighed.
"What are we going to do?" She asked running her hand along her stomach. They were
finding it harder and harder not to just touch each other in some way.
"I don't know B but... hey you see that." Faith said sitting up, a boat could be seen
in the distance.
"It's a boat!' Buffy exclaimed and they sat up, the boat coming closer to them.
"You think it's the gang?" Buffy asked and Faith shrugged.
"I sure as hell hope so, all I've eaten is bananas for the past few days." Buffy
elbowed her.
"There is also that whole needing help thing." She said sheepishly. The boat stopped
on the island and they saw Xander waving at them. He was also the first to get off
and run to hug Buffy.
"Great to see you to Xander." Buffy sat patting his back. He pulled back to look at
her as the others came forward.
"It was their fault!" He yelled and Willows eyes widened.
"Er...um." Willow stammered.
"Thank you Xander." Giles said and dropped the bag.
"What's in the bag?" Faith remarked.
"Weapons." Buffy and Faith both felt relief pour over them.
"Ok well we got a situation, werewolves." Xander turned to look at Willow and Giles.
"I told you something was up that's why Riley wasn't answering the..."
"What!" Buffy exclaimed and grabbed Xander by the shirt.
" You guys are the reason Riley was here." She said lowly looking at Xander with
disgust.
" Wh what's wrong with Riley." He asked nervously as an angry Buffy still held onto
the front of his shirt. Faith placed a hand on her shoulder and the blonde relaxed.
"Buffy, come on let him go. They couldn't of known." Reluctantly Buffy let Xanders
shirt go. The three of them stood in wonderment of the pair.
"So...I guess you two are getting along better." Xander said. They
didn't have time to answer as Giles asked them a question.
"What's wrong with Riley."
"He's dead. The werewolves they ate him." The three new comers looked at them
shocked.
"Buffy, I'm sorry we didn't..."
"Don't Giles. I'm not ready for apologies yet." He nodded. Faith ran a hand up and
down the blonde's back then without thinking she kissed her temple to comfort her.
Now the three of them really looked shocked.
"So...how well exactly are you two getting along." Willow asked and that's when what
had just happened really hit them.
"Um well, pretty good...ok well great really." The three waited for the answer they
knew was coming.
"We're together." Buffy stated and Xander's mouth dropped.
"Is this some kind of club and do me and Gile's have to join?" Willow couldn't help
but smile.
"I think I'll cancel my membership if I do." Giles said as he began to clean his
glasses.
"Xander don't be dumb." Buffy said. Giles replaced his glasses and cleared his
throat.
"I'm taking this to mean Faith will be coming back to Sunnydale?" He asked looking at
the brunette, who stiffened.
"Well I hadn't, I mean I'm still kind of in prison." Buffy looked at her surprised.
"You have to stay with us!" She exclaimed and Faith looked at her sympathetically.
"Not really your decision B."
"It will be if I go down and kick everyone of their asses." She mumbled to herself.
"B just because we're together doesn't mean I didn't do anything!" She yelled and the
others backed away some.
"Yeah but your better off stopping evil with me then you are in some prison cell."
Faith looked away and Buffy turned to Giles.
"Tell her your whole 'the world would be better with two slayers' thing." She commanded.
"Um, yes, well Faith the world would be better with..."
"Can it Giles!" Faith yelled not thinking about it. He stopped speaking abruptly.
"Er, sorry." She replied
"You need to stay with us Faith." Buffy said taking her hand. "You need to stay with
me." Faith stared into her eyes intently as the others around them just seemed to
fade away.
"Forever?" she asked cautiously.
"Forever." Buffy said firmly. She moved up to kiss her but Giles cleared his throat.
"Uh, I'm staying ." She replied and he nodded with a smile.
"Glad to hear it." Buffy looked over to Xander and saw him nearly drooling, her blush
deepened.
"So we get to stay on the boat then?" Faith asked changing the subject.
"Yes, You'll all have to sleep on the deck considering I only have one bedroom
but..." he stopped as everyone glared at him.
"I mean we'll all have to sleep on the deck because there is only one room." Everyone
headed towards the boat as Giles mumbled.
"I brought sleeping bags." Xander wrapped an arm around him.
"and you'll get to use it Gman."
The slayers entered the small boat and sighed. It felt good to get to sleep
somewhere without leaves. Faith opened the door and pointed.
"Look B, it's a real toilet!" Buffy rolled her eyes at her and turned to check out
the rest of the room. Two arms circled her and began to place soft kisses on her
neck. She moved to give Faith more access and relished in the sweet feel of Faith lips on her skin. She turned around and captured Faith's mouth with her own. The slayers melted into a heated kiss as they moved towards the bed.
Buffy's felt her knees hit the side and let herself fall back while still
kissing Faith. They broke apart for air, Faith hovering above Buffy. Buffy let her
hands caress the sides of Faith's thighs.
"You sure you want to do this Buffy?" She whispered.
"Positive." She replied without hesitation. Faith smiled down at her then placed a kiss on her forehead. She proceeded to kiss her cheek then stopped right by her ear.
"I love you." she said in a low voice and Buffy swallowed. The nervous brunette moved
her head to look in her eyes.
"You don't have to say it back." She replied and Buffy nodded, crushing the brunette.
"I know." Buffy said and the brunette looked away. Buffy placed her hand on her cheek
and made her look back into her eyes.
"but I want to. I love you Faith." Faith felt her heart beat speed up at the
confession. Buffy pulled the back of her head down to kiss her. As they did Buffy
moved her hands up and down Faith's back, stopping when she met the end of her
shirt. She glided her hands into it and caressed the smooth skin of Faith's back.
Faith sat up and quickly discarded the shirt onto the floor. Revealing her
breasts to the blonde beneath her. As Faith got off the bed to undo her pants Buffy
sat at the edge. The brunette began to undo the belt buckle but Buffy stopped her.
"Let me?" Faith nodded as Buffy's hands came to the front of her pants and undid the
buckle. She popped open the jeans button then pulled down her zipper. She kissed
Faith's stomach as she pulled down the pants, leaving Faith in her underwear. Slowly
she slid down her underwear, her eyes came to what was in front of her and she
swallowed hard.
Faith took her hands in hers and pulled her up to stand. She kissed the
blondes lips delicately as she ran her hands down her sides. Her hands went
underneath the shirts material and began to bring it up, her palms gliding across
Buffy's skin. Buffy lifted her arms as the shirt came over her head, it was thrown to
the floor and quickly forgotten. A gentle hand ran down the front of Buffy's chest
and stomach stopping when it reached her pants button. Faith undid the button and
zipper as she dropped to her knees.
The blonde inhaled as the cold air ran onto her skin were her pants were
being pulled off of her. Starting at her ankles, Faith ran her hands up Buffy's
creamy legs to her black underwear. She hesitantly pulled them down as she was about
to experience something she had wanted to for so long. Her breath became ragged as
she stared in front of her, thinking of all the things she would get to do with Buffy
tonight. She stood to full height and ran her hands up the blonde's back as she did
the same to her, they both unclasped the bra clips and pulled the garments off.
They stood completely naked now, admiring each other without shame. Buffy
placed a hand on the brunettes cheek as she coaxed her to come forward to kiss her.
Soft lips connected with one another as hands explored bodies. A groan elicit from
Faith as their breasts came together. Faith laid Buffy down on the bed and pulled a
blanket over them. The blonde was nervous Faith could tell. Hell I'm nervous and I
don't even remember the last damn time I was nervous about sex, Faith thought. Buffy
spread her legs as Faith lye her body on her, bringing them together in the most
intimate of places. Their breathing got deeper as Faith slowly started to move her
hips onto the blonde. Buffy opened her eyes and Faith gave her a peck on the lips.
"Show me?" Buffy asked.
"I'll show you." She said as she took Buffy's hand in hers. She kissed her fingertips
then brought both their hands between their bodies. Buffy felt like her heart would
just burst out of her chest as she anticipated what was to come. Faith pushed into
Buffy as the blonde did the same to her. Their eyes slowly closed as they got lost in
the rhythm they created, nervousness gone. A thought occurred to Faith then. I never
got nervous with sex but...this isn't just sex it's more. She opened her brown eyes
watching Buffy's face. I'm making love to her.
Later...
The two laid wrapped in each others arms. Thinking about what they had just
done. The look of pure ecstasy they both shared when they first climaxed together was
something neither would forget. The passion they created was something they never
wanted to stop, but eventually they had to. Even with slayer stamina you tend to get
tired. Buffy yawned into Faith's bare chest and tightened the hold on her side. Faith
smirked and kissed the top of her head.
"Wear you out baby?" she said softly and she grumbled something into her chest.
"I love you so much." Buffy whispered and Faith couldn't help the flutter of her
heart.
"I love you too." Soon after they both fell asleep, both happier then they had ever
been.
