Flashback"You, bitch." Said Angelus in a booming voice as he hit Faith so hard she flew back into a wall.
"I didn't mean to. I love you." Faith cried as he hit her again. She kept backing away from him, then she looked behind her and seen she had walked right back to the stairs. "It was only a kiss."
"Only a fucking kiss!" He said as he hit her once more and she fell down the stairs, she looked up at the man once more before she fell unconscious.
End of Flashback"Slayer." The vampire screeched.
"I know more about you than anyone and you know it." Angelus said.
"There's always something to say slayer." He whispered in her ear. He knew he still had a hold over her he always had even when they had first met.
"We can't do this Angelus… it's wrong, also too much has happened and I don't think it would ever be able to work again."
"I have to go," she then started to walk away and he let her. He wanted to show her he had changed so he would let her go for now but he wouldn't give up that easy.
Faith woke up to someone knocking on her door.
"Alright I'm coming already." She shouted as she grabbed her top and trousers,
"What?" she asked as opened the door.
"Are you Faith Black?" the man at the door asked.
"Yes, why?"
"Take them in boys." The man shouted down the corridor to a group of other men. One by one the men came in all carry bouquets of roses that were a mixture between pink, red and white.
"You're a lucky lady miss, someone must really love you. Now I just need you to sign here." The man held out a pen and clipboard, Faith scanned the writing before signing. "Thank you." The man said before walking off.
Faith shut the door before turning around to look the hundreds of bouquets that were scattered around her living room floor. She looked closer to see that in some of them there were cards. She went over to the closest one and picked up the card.
"One rose for amount of times a day I think of you." The first one said.
"None of these as beautiful as you." Another said.
"No amount of flowers or gifts could describe how much I love you or how sorry I Am." The last note she picked up, this note was attached to one red rose, that to her that rose was more beautiful than the others.
"I can't be bought." Faith mumbled to herself.
"Do you think it was a good idea? She might think I thought she could be bought, but that's not what I meant…" Angelus said quietly to himself as he paced in the library of his house, he wanted to go round and see her but didn't now if she'd want to see him.
"You know peaches I haven't seen you this nervous since… well since ever actually." Spike said as he leant on the doorframe with his arms crossed.
"Well she said she has to move again because she can't stay here when I'm here or she might get too temped." Angelus as he continued to pace.
"What is wrong with you! Get a grip of yourself. You know as well as I do that Faith wouldn't want to be with you if you were like this. She needs someone to take care of her, she may be the slayer but we both know that she is more vulnerable than anyone. If she seen you like this then I don't think she would want to be with you. Be in control but not to rough isn't that what I told you when I first introduced you to her but obviously you've forgotten my words of wisdom." Spike explained to him.
"Vulnerable am I, first I knew about it Spike. And you know I just figured something out neither of you two know me well at all. You think I need someone to be in control of my life and you Angelus think I can be bought." Faith's voice sounded through the room.
"I don't think you need someone else to be in control of your life, I know you do. Honestly Faith who knows you better than Angelus or me?" Spike asked her.
"I wasn't trying to buy you." Angelus told her as Spike and he both looked around the room trying to find out where she was.
"I'm leaving, so it wont really matter who knows me 'cause I'll be gone. Also I don't need someone else to be in control of my life, I've coped quite well for the past month by myself and before I ever met you two I was doing just fine." Faith told them as she dropped down from a balcony.
"You're doing better than I thought you would." Spike admitted to her.
"Gee Spike thanks for the vote of confidence." Faith said sarcastically, as she smirked, this was the way they always were around each other arguing about everything.
"Anytime, pet. Well I have things to do so I'll be seeing you slayer." Spike said as he turned and left the room.
"How did you get in?" Angelus asked he as she took a seat by the fire that was going.
"I have my ways." Faith said as she looked around the place. "Nice place you got here, I can see why you wouldn't want to leave."
"I didn't want to leave because that would mean being away from you, I've had to put up with that once before and I don't want to do it again." Angelus told her as he sat on one of the chairs that were beside her.
"Well you'll just have to get used to it." She told him.
"No I won't. I'll follow and you know I will. So what's the point in giving up a job and what I suppose is a nice home just to get away from me when I'll be following you." Angelus asked smirking slightly.
"Angelus," Faith let out a long sigh. "Please, why can't you just leave me alone? I mean I'm sure there are plenty of other people that would happily want to be with you."
"Don't you get it yet? I don't want anyone else I want you." Angelus told her honestly.
"Well that's just something you're just going to have to get over then." Faith said as she got up and started pacing.
After a few minutes Angelus got up and stood behind her. He put his hands on her shoulders and gently began to massage them. Faith sighed and leaned into his touch again his closeness affecting her.
"You need to relax, and you need to stop running away from your problems." Angelus said when he thought she was about to reply he spoke over her. "Don't bother trying to protest because you know I'm right."
