Chapter 13


Buffy's POV

It's been 4 days since Tara and Willow moved in with us. They occupied my mother's room. They kept asking me if it's alright for them to use it and I kept saying yes to them. Dawn was really okay with it. Oh yeah...it's also been a week since our first really romantic date. Actually we've been going out everyday and it's also romantic but...the one that she did last week was really unforgettable. She did all those things just to make our first date romantic and I love her for that. I also thanked all the people who helped Faith. I was surprised that everyone helped her. Willow and Tara picked the flowers...Anya was the one responsible for the candles...Giles was the one who decorated the whole thing (which really surprised me!)...Xander was the one who rented the limo and drove me there...Spike helped cleaned the whole place...Dawn was the one calling Faith about where I was and Faith was the one who planned it all! (With Chrono's help!) I thanked all of them.

I sighed as I remembered the night. I was working in the doublemeat palace now. I began working here 3 days ago when I decided that we needed to save money for future expences. Faith was against it at first because of my slayer duty and college. After awhile I changed her mind but she still doesn't approve of the idea. I know she's just worried about me and I'm very thankful for that but we needed the money and the only way to have money is for me to work. I know mom left us enough but...I'm afraid of what will happen if that money was gone before Dawn graduated.

It's a good thing that they let me work in here. I thought I wasn't going to get it because of the manager who is such a pain in the ass! He's very strict and very frank. One time when Faith was visiting here, he got angry and yelled at Faith and threatened me that if he saw Faith here visiting me and not eating, he's going to fire me. The nerve! Faith got angry and almost punched him; luckily I was able to stop her from doing something stupid. She was so angry that she left without saying goodbye. I sighed.

"Uh...miss. Can I order now"

I shook my head and looked at the person talking. It was a guy with a brown hair and seems...pretty short for a guy. I think he's only about 4'11. I smiled at him.

"Sorry...got something on my mind. What will you have"

"I'll have...3 burgers...3 French fries...uh...3 diet coke and a lot of catsup please..."

"That'll be...10 dollars."

He handed the 10 dollar bill and I gave him his food. I smiled at him and he took his food and headed towards the other table. Two other people were sitted there and they kept...glancing at me. I ignored it.

No one's POV

Warren looked at Buffy and noticed her staring back at her. He immediately looked away.

"Shit! I think she caught me staring! Is she looking at me"

The other guy, Andrew looked at Buffy and noticed that she's talking to her co-worker. Buffy was laughing at what the other said. He looked at Warren.

"No...she's talking to that woman in the other counter."

Warren looked again and saw Buffy was in fact talking to someone. He sighed. Jonathan sat beside Warren and laid the food on the table. He frowned at Warren.

"You owe me 10 dollars."

"No way man! It was your time to buy."

"Argh"

Warren took the hamburger and began to eat it. He looked at Jonathan who was drinking at his drink.

"So...anything new you noticed form the mighty slayer"

"Nothing..."

"Nothing"

"Yeah...nothing. She does seem occupied or something..."

"Occupied? What do you mean"

"She...dazed out when I ordered."

Warren looked at Andrew and he looked at him too. Both of them laughed.

"What"

Warren tried to calm down.

"She probably dazed out because of you're height man! She probably thought that you're from the clan of the dwarfs"

Jonathan frowned at him and jumped at him and they punched themselves. Andrew just sat there and laughed at them. After a few seconds a large man walked towards them.

"If you three are just going to fool around in my place then please just leave"

Both Warren and Jonathan moved away from each other and apologized at the owner. The owner glared at them before going back to the counter. Warren punched Jonathan in the arm.

"This is all your fault."

"My fault! You were the one who called me the dwarf"

"Ah put a sock in it! Let's just talk about our plan."

The three guys gathered close to the table and began to plan the things they are going to do to the slayer...

Buffy's POV

After working I headed to the magic box were Faith and the others were. Faith was reading a comic book. She looked away from it and smiled at me.

"How was work"

"Pretty crappy...some guys were fooling around the place that the 'manager from hell' as you put it, yelled at them."

"And that's the most intresting thing that happened"

"Well...yeah."

She walked towards me and held my face and gave me a kiss on the lips that I kissed back eagerly. She pulled away, pouting.

"Awww...poor baby...feel better"

I nodded, not trusting my voice. She gave me another peck on the lips and held my hand. She was going to take me to the training room and have another breath taking making out session. She had her hand on the door knob but didn't open it when Giles saw us. He shook his head.

"I...er...don't think you have any time to do 'your training' session today. Faith...you have to go patrol now..."

He calls our making-out session...your training session...everytime we decided to do it. That's because one time...he caught us in our own training session everytime he opens the door of the training room. He always stops us with his coughing. I sighed and looked at Faith. She smiled and leaned towards my ear, whispering...

"Maybe we can just train in our bedroom then...wait for me."

She kissed me quick on the lips and gave my hand one last squeeze and went outside. I sighed and looked at the door. I'll wait for you... I went to the table and sat in it still looking at the door. I hope she comes home early...

Faith's POV

I walked at the cemetery waiting for the vamps to start attacking me, but...nothing came. I sat in one of the tombs and felt a vampire walking towards me. I looked at the direction of the feeling and saw Spike smoking. He smiled at me and sat beside me.

"Hey Willy...did you fought any vamps lately"

"Nah...no vamps. It's kinda strange isn't it"

"Yeah..."

We always talked like this. Everytime that I patrol in the evening he always shows up, smoking. I was really thankful for his help. I know he's just doing it for B. I can see it in his dead eyes. He loves her. I don't have any problem with that. But if ever he and B become a couple then...that's the time when I will have a problem. I told B about him showing up and helping me but...she doesn't seem pleased. In fact she's...jealous. I smiled at the time she told me that she'll go slaying with me. I didn't approve because I know she just want to make sure that me and Willy here don't go smooching. I laughed at the thought of me and Spike making-out. I don't have anything against kissing a vampire but...he's like...dead. Why would I kiss a dead man?

We continue to walk around the cemetery.

"So...how's other slayer"

"She's fine...she just got back form the place she works."

"So she's making a living."

"Yeah..."

"She's not going to slay anymore"

"She will...only Friday to Sunday. Coz she has work at Monday to Thursday...maybe you should spend some time with her...seeing that you like her and all..."

He looked at the ground. If he wasn't dead, I might have guessed that when he looks at the ground like that, he's blushing. I laughed at him. He looked at me with his blonde eyebrow raised.

"What are you laughing at"

"Nothing is just that...are you trying to blush or something"

"I don't blush..."

"Of course you don't...YOU'RE DEAD"

"Like I don't bloody know that."

"What's with you and this bloody thing? Are you British or something"

"Well...I am kinda British I guess..."

We continued talking until I felt something. It was a really weird feeling. I looked at Willy and nodded at him. We ran towards the feeling. We stopped as we saw a monster heading our way. It was a bull with a sword in his hand. He swung the sword and we ducked. I ran towards it in front while Spike headed to it's back. I kick it the stomach but it didn't budge. He swung his sword again but he missed me. Spike punched him but he didn't turn to him. The bull took a deep breath and opened his mouth. Fire came out of it. I moved back.

"What the hell! A bull that breathes fire"

"It's a monster after all"

I attacked its front side again but again it didn't budge. He took my feet and threw me in the tree. It hurt a lot. I tried to stand up but got dizzy. The bull walked towards me and held my head up. He punched me on stomach. I could taste blood on my lips. Spike immediately attacked it and the bull dropped me. He faced Spike and held his sword and swung it towards him. Spike backed away until he reached a tree.

"A little help here..."

I stood up no matter what pain I felt and saw a large branch of a tree. I took it and swung it to the bull. It broke and the bull again looked at me. He held his sword up, closed my eyes and waited for the impact...but it didn't come. I opened my eyes and found...nothing. Spike walked closer to me.

"What the hell was that"

"I...don't know."

I felt dizzy and passed out.

No one's POV

The three geeks were in the black van near the cemetery. Jonathan walked towards the driver's seat. He glared at Warren.

"Well...I did what you want. I summoned a strong monster but...don't you think it's too much? I mean she might die you know."

"Awww...is little Jonathan having a little crush on the little slayer? That's soooo cute."

"If you say the word little again I'll kick you"

"Oooooh...I'm scared..."

Jonathan jumped at Warren and punched him. Warren also punched him and they end up beating each other.

"Hey guys"

Both of them stopped and looked at Andrew. He was staring at the window for quite some time now. Trying to see what the slayer look like if she was beaten down.

"I think we've got the wrong slayer..."

Both of them got up and looked at the window. There they saw a blonde man in a leather coat carrying a the rogue slayer.

Buffy's POV

I looked at the clock and noticed it's 9:10 in the evening. I was waiting for Faith and I decided to watch some TV in the living room. Everyone was in bed now. I flipped the channel and I can't help but glance at the door. I almost jumped out of my seat when I heard the knocking on the door. I immediately turn off the TV and went to the front door. I opened it and was angry to see Faith in the arms of Spike. Faith was asleep. Why is it that I feel like I've seen this before? Oh yeah...but it was Chronos in that time... I looked at Spike and he grinned.

"Would you mind"

"Uh...put her in the couch."

He walked towards the couch and laid her. Faith doesn't seem to like the idea...

"Uh...no..."

She kept grabbing Spike and he kept taking her hands away from him. Her eyes still closed. I really frowned at him. Why is my girlfriend keep pulling him! I should stake him here and now! He looked at me and smiled nervously. He moved away from Faith, who curled on the other side.

"What happened"

"Uh...some monster...a big one, attacked us...or we attacked it. Kitten here was pummeled by the monster."

Kitten! Why is he calling her that! I should really stake him now! He must have realized that I was really mad now because the next thing I knew he's on the door waving goodbye. Before I can say another word he closed the door and ran towards the cemetery. I took a deep breath and looked at 'kitten' on the couch. I should shake her and ask her a lot of question! Instead of the thing I thought I gently carried her to our bedroom. She leaned to me and murmured something. I smiled. Aww...she's just so cute...I could kiss her right now. So much for making-out tonight. I sighed and gently laid her on the bed. I looked at her for awhile then brushed a few strands of hair in her face. I leaned to her and slowly kissed her lips.

"Good night love..."

I turned the lights off and laid beside Faith who instantly snuggled to me. I smiled and closed my eyes...

No one's POV

Spike was walking at the street of the slayers and was heading to the cemetery. He was lighting his cigarette.

"So much for impressing the Buffy..."

He stopped when he noticed a black van near the house of the slayers. He walked closer to it.

"Didn't I see this thing in the cemetery"

Inside the van Andrew saw Spike walking closer to the van.

"I think he saw us"

Warren immediately started the engine and drove away leaving the confused vampire. Spike ignored it and decided to head to the cemetery.

Faith's POV

I felt something soft in my hand. I squeezed it gently and I heard someone moan. I slowly opened my eyes and looked around. I was in our room. I looked at hand and my eyes were wide. My hand was on Buffy's left breast. I quickly removed my hand in there and turn to the other side. Geeez! What the hell is my hand doing in there! And...how did I get here? I slowly remembered the incident that happened yesterday. Right there was a bull monster with a sword...Spike probably carried my ass here... I sighed and felt B's hand on my waist. She moved beside me and spooned me. I laid my hand on her hand. I looked at the clock. It's only 4:30! Gotta sleep more... I closed my eyes and drifted to sleep.

Buffy's POV

I slowly opened my eyes and found no one in Faith's side. I looked at the clock. 7:20...Good thing it's Saturday... I sat up and stretched. I got out of the bed and went downstairs. I can hear talking in the kitchen and decided to go there. Everyone was there except for Tara. Faith was beside Dawn while Willow was on the stove cooking pancakes. Faith's plate has a lot of them. She noticed me and smiled.

"Hey B! Nice of you to finally wake up."

I went towards her and sat on the opposite. Dawn was also eating but I can see that she's almost done. Willow laid a plate in front of me. She smiled at me and I smiled back. She laid two pancakes for me and a cup of coffee.

"I'm done. I'll be in the living room now...excuse me."

Dawn got up, and went to the living room to watch some cartoons. That girl really needs to stay off of the TV for awhile...all she ever watch is cartoons! I looked at Faith who was busy eating a dozen of pancakes... Faith is even worse than Dawn...at least she doesn't get fat...I wonder how she does it. She really has a lovely figure... Faith must have noticed me staring at her.

"What wrong B? Got something on my face"

I smiled at her and wiped the sauce on her face using my finger. Once I wiped it I licked my finger trying to be sexy. She had her mouth open wide. I grinned at her and gave her a wink.

"Hmmmm...pancakes..."

Willow looked at me.

"Did you say something Buffy"

"I said you're pancakes are...delicious..."

"Thank you..."

She looked at Faith and noticed her staring at me with her mouth open.

"Faith...are alright"

Faith looked at her then at the ground. She was really blushing now. I giggled at her. She looks so cute blushing like that... She drank her juice and stood up.

"I...I think I'll join Dawn..."

She walked towards the living room. Willow looked at me and I just shrugged.

"Where's Tara anyway"

"She's in the university...says something about a Wicca meeting."

"But...you're a Wicca member too..."

"Yeah but...she's just going to pick the tickets."

"So where is the meeting being held now"

"Still in England..."

"Cool..."

The Wicca meetings are always held in the England. I don't know what they did there...probably about the different spells and all. It was cool. Willow attended the meeting last year and when she got back...she talked for a whole while without. She babbled a lot. I laughed when I remembered her face when she was done telling her story. She was so red that she might look like a tomato with her hair red and all. I smiled at her and stood up. I took the dishes and put them in the dish washer.

"Go ahead...I'll finish cleaning up."

She nodded and went to the living room.

Faith's POV

After breakfast we all went to the magic box. Saturday is the time when B and me train...as in real training not the other training. When we got there Dawn immediately went to the witches section. Willow sat down and began to read the newspaper. B and I walked to the training room and began to change. Giles was there...

"Are both of you ready"

I looked at B and she nodded. The door opened and I looked at Xander. He smiled.

"Morning! Are you two going to spar? Can I watch"

"NO"

Both me and B said. It's not like we don't want an audience but we just...don't want Xander to BE the audience. Knowing he must be thinking of something else. He pouted at us...

"Please? I'll be real quiet. Promise."

"NO! Giles please..."

Giles sighed and went to push Xander out of the room. He looked back at us.

"Well...I suppose I can leave you two alone and do some REAL training okay"

"Alright Gman! We'll train...we'll train real hard."

I grinned at B and she grinned at me. Giles sighed and closed the door. We circled each other trying to read the others moves.

"How about we make this interesting B..."

"What do you mean"

"How about a bet..."

"What kind of bet"

"Well...let's see...how about if I win...you'll go anywhere I want...and if I lose..."

"You'll go anywhere I want..."

"Deal...let's shake on it."

She reached for my hand and I did the same, but I flipped her and she ended up in the mattress on her back. I smiled at her.

"Never take you're enemies hand..."

I reached my hand to her to pick her up but she pulled me down and I ended up in the floor in my stomach.

"Never help your enemies..."

I grinned at her and she grinned back. I stood up and charged at her... I'm feeling lucky today...

No one's POV

Everyone was in the magic box obviously doing something. Tara went inside the store and noticed her girlfriend reading the newspaper. Willow didn't notice her. Tara slowly walked towards Willow and gave her a kiss on the cheek. Willow smiled and removed what she was reading and hugged her girlfriend.

"I missed you baby...what took you so long."

"It's the tickets...many people wants to join the Wicca just to have a free ticket to the meeting. Luckily the leaders decline."

"Good...I don't want any other people who are not interested in the meeting to join us."

"Yeah...but the flight is tomorrow morning...and we haven't packed yet."

"Then we have to pack now huh? Come on...let's go. I just have to say goodbye to Buffy."

Tara nodded and Willow went towards the training room. When she was about to open the door, it opened and she was facing the sweaty Buffy.

"Willow...did you want something"

"No...I was just going to say that our flight is tomorrow morning and we have to pack now."

"Oh...I thought we could all go to the fair...but I guess you should really pack now if your flight is tomorrow morning..."

"The fair? Are you sure you're going there? Did you beg for Faith to take you there"

"No...I didn't beg her...she's the one who came out with the idea...right Faith"

Buffy looked at the sweaty Faith who was laid in the matters.

"Whatever..."

"And we'll going to have fun right Faith"

"Again with the whatever."

Buffy looked at Willow again who was staring at Faith.

"Buffy...is she alright"

"Faith? Oh she just fine. She just learned a valuable lesson...never make a bet in your enemies unless she feels...lucky."

Faith heard this and sighed.

Faith's POV

Did I just say that I was feeling lucky? Well...I was wrong...it's nothing but bad luck. I'm in the fair with B, Dawn and...Spike. B didn't want to invite him but I told him that he should have some fun and this was a way to thank him for saving me. She agreed but...I think she's not going to let go of my arm. We just kept walking and walking and whenever they find some booth that has a large stuff toy they'll ask us to try and win it. Me and Spike are trying to see who can win it (a large tiger) and...we won it both. I gave my price to B and he gave his to Dawn. That's what we kept doing these last few hours...

"Buffy look! Cotton candy! Let's buy some."

"Ok...Faith...would you like some"

"No thanks..."

She nodded, gave me the giant tiger that I won and headed for the guy that's selling the cotton candy with Dawn. I sighed and rubbed my arm that she keeps on pulling and squeezing. Spike walked beside me.

"If this is the thanks I get from you then...remind me not to save you from now on..."

"Awww...don't be like that...aren't you having fun"

"Fun? You call this fun? I call this torture"

"Well...it'll be over soon I think..."

Actually...it took us a lot of hours to get back home. And when I said a LOT of hours...I meant it. We drove to the cemetery and drop off Spike who didn't say a word while we were driving. I mean he actually jumped off the car and ran to his crib. I laughed and both Dawn and B looked at me with their eyebrow raised. I ignored them and drove for our house. Dawn quickly got out of it and headed to her bedroom. I entered the house with a giant tiger in my hands. B went to the kitchen to get something to drink. After getting ready to bed we decided to call it a night and go to sleep.

Buffy's POV

We woke up early to see Willow and Tara off in the airport. It took a lot of minutes because of Faith. It took me awhile to wake her up. She's in one of the seat sleeping. I looked at Willow and Tara.

"When will you two be home"

"I think...for about a week. Will you be alright"

"Yeah...I've got sleeping beauty with me after all..."

Both of them giggled. Willow gave me a hug and I did the same for Tara. The announcer mentioned their plane.

"Well...I guess we'll see you in a week..."

"Okay..."

"Call me if something bad happen ok"

"Sure...have fun."

"We will..."

They waved goodbye and headed to their plane. I walked towards Faith who had her head bowed, sleeping. I kissed her and she seems to open her eyes.

"B? Wassup"

"Nothing...let's...go home."

"Sure..."

She slowly got up and stretched. I held her hand and she did the same.

Faith's POV

After the seeing Red and Blondie off...whom I didn't see mind you...B went to work. I on the other hand began training in the magic box. I just can't believe that I lost to B again! Maybe it has something to do with my feelings. I can't seem to concentrate whenever I'm with her. But she...can.

After a very tiring training I decided to visit Chronos who seem very busy getting drinks for everyone. The place was packed. Maybe because someone is here to celebrate their birthday. I had some drink and decided to head back to the magic box and wait for B. I sat in the couch and began to read a comic book. Luckily, it didn't take that long for B to go to the magic box. She looked tired. I walked closer to her and gave her a long kiss.

"Hey babe...you look tired."

"Yeah...many costumers today...don't know why..."

"Poor baby..."

After a few minutes of kissing I looked at clock and saw that it's already 7 in the evening. Geeez...time sure flies by whenever you're having fun. I kissed B goodbye and decided to go slay.

No one's POV

Warren, Andrew, and Jonathan were in the van again that was parked near the cemetery. They are waiting for the slayer...whoever it is.

"When will she arrive"

"Awww quit whining Jonathan! I'm sure she'll come..."

After an hour of waiting...they saw Faith heading to the cemetery. Warren looked at Jonathan and grinned.

"Well Jonathan...it's show time. Let's see what this spell can do."

Faith's POV

I sat in the tomb as usual trying to wait for Spike. And he did come. He approached me and frowned.

"Don't tell me you're waiting for me again to go to that bloody fair again"

"Not this time, Willy boy."

"Whew...thank the Gods"

I smiled at him and began to walk around. We began chatting for awhile until I felt vampires running towards us. We waited for them and when they were in reach we beat them up. And...dusted them.

No one's POV

The three geeks were holding hands in a circle and they were chanting. Soon a light passed through their hands and went outside the van heading to the rogue slayer who was busily dusting a vampire. Spike was also fighting a vampire that she didn't see Faith being surrounded in a light. After he dusted his own vampire. He sighed and turned around.

"Looks like they were newbie's, eh Kitten"

He looked around and saw no one.

"Did she leave already"

He shrugged and began to walk away when a voice startled him. He looked on the ground and saw a child in a pile of big clothes that doesn't seem to fit her. He looked closer and saw that it was Faith's clothes. He looked at the kid who was crying hard. She had a wavy dark brown hair. He picked her up and looked at her.

"Don't tell me...hey kid...what's your name"

The kid looked at Spike, her eyes still filled with tears.

"I'm Faith...do you know where my mommy is"

He stared at her. Faith had turned into a two year old kid!

"Now blondie really is going to dust me now...I've turned her girlfriend into a five year old kid! I'm dead"
