Buffy the Vampire Slayer!

Happiness vs Sadness

"Buffy, have you seen my shirt? You know… the red one which I just bought yesterday"
As Dawn walked into the room Buffy quickly looked at her own clothes as she just took a bite from her sandwich. "Euhm… you mean, this one?" As she looked ashamed at the shirt she was wearing Dawn's eyes became big and angry as she quickly turned around while screaming "Oh, I'm so taking your shirt that you bought yesterday."

"Dawn, DON'T YOU DARE!" But without any time to follow her little sister Dawn was already out of the room. As Buffy just wanted to follow her a red female girl entered the room with a sleepy head. "Oh, good morning Buffy. How… How went your patrolling last night?"

As Buffy gazed at the stairs for a second she quickly turned around to face Willow. "Oh, you know. As usual. Vampires, killed them" As she grabbed her sandwich again Willow stared at the blonde in front of her as she putted an innocent smile on her face which we all know oh, so well. "Oh… okay than."

As Buffy continued on eating Willow walked towards the fridge as she putted some things out of it to make her own sandwich. As they both didn't said a thing they all of a sudden heard someone rushing of the stairs as they both looked into the living room where Dawn appeared while wearing a beautiful white shirt. "Here, you wear my clothes, I wear yours" as she putted an smile on her face Buffy couldn't help it but to start laughing really loudly as Dawn started to laugh with her leaving a confused Willow all by herself who looked like she was in a mad house.

As Willow just wanted to interrupt Xander walked into the house followed by Anya who was mysteriously send back as a vengeance demon after her death. Happy that she wasn't alone any more Willow looked at the two newcomers really glad as they both sat on a bar chair. "Hey guys, How…."

"Xander doesn't want sex." As Willow just wanted to ask how things were going Anya started to interrupt her as she looked at the red witch with big innocent but guilty eyes at the same time. "Huh?" As Willow looked at the blonde vengeance demon Xander turned red as Buffy and Dawn started to laugh a bit louder.

"Honey, we've been trough this before." As Xander took Anya by the arm he leaded her towards the living room while they started to argue. With a smirk Buffy looked at Willow "That was a nice greeting."

As Willow returned a smile to Buffy and Dawn she stood up as she grabbed her laptop. "Giles just send me a mail. He euhm. He said he was coming back tomorrow. I thought that… Well euhm… we could… Arrange a coming back party?"

"Yeah, that is so cool. With cake and everything, and balloons," With a smile Dawn sat up straight in her chair as she looked at Buffy who turned to Dawn now, also really excited. "Yes, and we could give him a puppy. I like puppy's." As they both started to think about all sort of things they could do to give Giles a welcoming back party Willow looked at them with a bit of an ashamed look. "Well, actually… I thought we could reopen the magic shop. I don't think Giles is such a party fan. More of the books and magic items."

As both Buffy and Dawn looked disappointed they both nodded with their heads as they knew Willow was right. Anya for that matter, who just walked back into the kitchen heard the words of that they were planning to reopen the magic shop for Giles. With excitement she sat down on a chair as Xander walked behind her. "Reopen the magic shop? Does this mean I will take care of Giles money again?"

With a smile Willow nodded at Anya, as she was relieved that the rest of the Scooby gang liked the idea of reopening the Magic Shop. "Yes, you can take care of euhm… Giles money."

As they all smiled at eachoter they knew that they had to do lots of things to prepare things for the magic shop. But they also all knew that it was not only what Giles would want to happen. But that it was also something they wanted to happen.

In the meantime they weren't the only one who were awake. With a sigh Faith sat up straight in her bed as she looked at Robin who was still sleeping. With a sad smile she caressed his cheek for a moment as she than stood up, while walking to the bathroom. As she looked into the reflection of the mirror she washed her hands and than her face. She knew what she had dreamed about last night. But she just couldn't tell Robin about all the things that had happened in her past. As she took a towel to dry her hands she slowly walked into the bedroom again as she stared at Robin. This all, everything… it was so new to her. She never felt associated to Buffy before. But now. For the first time in her life she actually had friends, a man who loved her, and a place to stay. She didn't had to run away. But one way or another, it just… didn't felt right. She wasn't sure if this was who she was. Hell, she wasn't even sure if she actually loved Robin. Was he just… someone to screw around with, or did she actually had feelings for this guy? Yeah, she did care for him off course. But maybe not in a way she was supposed to feel for him. For once in her life, she now knew that Buffy and she were exactly the same. Buffy had her friends, her family, her work. And although her life seemed all perfect, she now knew that it wasn't perfect at all. And how would Buffy be if she didn't had friends or a family. Would she be exactly as Faith in the past? Actually, it wasn't that hard to imagine. When you're alone it's easy to kill and to be hard. And it's hard to put good aside from bad. Than why was it still hard on her when she finally had it all? Why was she still feeling incomplete.

As she putted on her clothes and her shoes she stared at the clock. It was almost 1 pm. She stood up as she walked towards Robin while shaking him a bit around in a soft way. "Hey sleepyhead. Wake up. We've got a meeting with the Scooby gang. Don't want them to keep waiting right?" As Robin slowly opened up his eyes he looked at Faith as she started to smile. "Hey." As he bended a bit forward he putted a kiss upon Faith's lips as she kissed him back. "How about… We just keep them waiting." Her grabbed her by her waist as he pulled her against him as she felt over him onto the bed as they started to kiss. "I'm not sure if B would…" As he started to kiss her more passionately she putted her arms around him as he started to lean over here while caressing her arms. "They can wait." and with that they locked their arms around eachoter while continuing on kissing.

It didn't matter any more what time it was, how Faith felt deep down inside of her, or how he was concerned about her, for all that mattered where their self. The two of them strangling in eachoter arms. It was strange how love could change things so dramatically. How it could make people forget for a while, or make them blind for the world. It was weird, the way that only a single touch could say more than thousands of words that don't cross your lips. But at the same time, it felt lonely for you know that the other one has secrets. Secrets they don't want to share while actually you are really close to eachoter. A piece of a puzzle that is still missing. Two hearts incomplete, a tortured soul full of doubts for you know that the other one doesn't trust you. The feeling that you don't know how you feel. And yet, the touch that makes it all forget. How strange human being are. How difficult our brain works. And how tender the feelings we all have.
