"I left my purse in the car." Faith sighed and handed her the keys.
"I'll go get it, you'll take to long." Buffy frowned.
"What's the hurry?" The blonde asked and Faith placed a hand on her cheek.
"Just don't like being away from you for to long is all." Buffy placed her hand over the one on her face.
"I'm not going anywhere Faith. We have all the time in the world." Buffy said and the brunette nodded.
"Yeah B." She smiled and kissed her softly this time.
"You never know when it's going to be time for another apocalypse though." Buffy quirked an eyebrow.
"Thank you for that little note." Faith smirked.
"No prob. I'm gonna go get your purse." She said as she turned. Buffy walked into the house and sighed as she looked at their apartment. Finally she had a place of her own, and boy did it feel good.
"Buffy." She heard a weak voice call from their room. Buffy furrowed her brow and walked towards the noise, instinctively reaching for her stake. She entered their room and flicked on the light switch. Even more confused when she didn't see anyone.
"Buffy." Faith said and placed a hand on her shoulder, causing the blonde to jump. She turned around and prepared to stake Faith.
"Woah!" The brunette said as she put up her hands and stepped back.
"Faith! Oh my god! Don't do that!" Faith looked at her confused.
"Sorry?" She replied and put down her hands.
"Urgh, I think I'm losing my mind." Faith remained silent.
"Feel free to argue now."
"With the woman who almost staked me for saying her name? I'll stick with B for now on by the way." Buffy looked around the room and Faith placed a hand on her back.
"Seriously, you ok?" She asked and Buffy laid her head on her shoulder.
"I guess so, just hearing things, maybe." Faith ran her fingers through her hair.
"Your sure?" Buffy nodded.
"Ok, still up for some lovin'?" Faith asked hopeful.
"Not really but it's early...we could always spar?" Faith sighed but relented as she went to grab some gloves out of a box.
After both girls had changed into more comfortable clothes they put on all their pads and began to spar. It didn't take them long to really get into it and not hold back at all. Buffy went to jab Faith but she quickly ducked and grabbed the arm. Without hesitation she got behind Buffy and pinned her arm behind her back, holding her against her so she couldn't get away.
"Still think I need to train?" Faith asked and Buffy grunted as she tried to free herself. She grumbled something incoherent and stepped on Faith's foot hard.
"Ow!" Faith said as she let go of her and hobbled back some.
"Yeah, you could use just a little bit more." Buffy grinned.
"That was cheap,B." She said and got back into a fighting stance.
"What are you going to do? Cry about it or fight me?" Buffy taunted and Faith swooped down to knock her legs out from underneath her. The blonde made a thump as she fell onto the ground, Faith smiled from above her.
"You gonna get up?" Buffy tried to leg sweep Faith but failed as she jumped up. A knocking came from the door and both furrowed their brows. Faith grabbed her towel and made her way to the door to open it.
"Yeah?" She asked to an angry old man in his robe.
"Do you know it's eleven thirty at night and you two are making more ruckus then I can stand!" He yelled and Faith frowned.
"Sorry, we'll try and keep it down." She grumbled and he nodded his head.
"Oh you better or I'll be getting both your asses kicked out." He said and Faith rolled her eyes.
"Right. Bye then." She said and shut the door. She glared at Buffy.
"Oh, it's still early Faith, let's spar." she mocked as Buffy got up.
"Whatever I need a shower." The blonde replied and grabbed a towel from the box. Faith walked over and picked one up as well.
"Conserve water?" She asked and Buffy smirked.
"Of course, we have to do what we can for the planet." Buffy said as they walked into the bathroom.
