FPOV.
I seriously dislike that man. Like a lot.
"I'm doing fine princess. Thank you for asking." my father says.
"Why are you here?"i ask cutting to the chase. He looks shocked.
"What do you mean?" he asks. Ugh.
"Why are you here breathin my air? Why are you still alive for that matter? Aren't you old enough to die from old age or somethin?" I ask him. He just chuckles.
"I'm here to have the charges against you dropped." he says with a sigh.
"Why ya helpin me?" I ask. He sighs again but I know why this time.
"Would you please use proper English? Would that hurt you?" he asks with a smile.
"Fine. Why are you assisting me in my time of need?" I ask.
"I'm your father. Its what I do." he says. I scoff. He kicked me out when he found out I was pregnant, and I haven't spoken to him since.
"Yeah you're real big on doin what your supposed to." I say sarcastically. He shakes his head.
"No, I'm not." he says quietly. "Can I talk to you alone? Please Erin?" he asks. And finally I see tears in his eyes. I nod. He turns to an officer.
"We need an interrogation room all cameras and microphones off and no one and I mean no one is to watch our conversation." he say. The cop raises an eyebrow.
"Sir you can't jus-" but my dad cuts him off.
"That wasn't a question or a request. Get to it!" he yells. A few minutes later the cop comes back and we make our way in. little did I know this conversation was going to change a lot.
BPOV.
I have to say she looks like her father but at the same time she doesn't. Does that make sense? Its like...i don't know. My face must be showing what I'm thinking because Kate speaks up.
"She's an exact mixture of both parents. Don't see to many people like that. Always see someone who looks more like their mom or more like their dad, not the exact blend of them. I saw a picture of her family once. Beautiful people as you can see from Faith and her dad." she says. She's right. I look more like my mom than my dad. Dawn looks a lot like dad. But neither of us are like 'exact blends' of them. Nobody else I've met is. They look more like one parent than the other.
"Who does her daughter look like?" I ask. She looks thoughtful for a moment.
"Her." she says simply. Beautiful little girl then. Her and her father have been back there for a while and I'm getting a little worried. Then a boy, who looks a lot like Faith's dad, comes storming in. he's wearing an all black suit. Tie and all and he looks uncomfortable. He walks up to an officers desk.
"I'm looking for either Faith or Broderick Lehane." he says. He sounds calm but he doesn't look it.
"Sir, I can't give you information on the Lehanes. They are a very private family. You're going to have to leave."
"I know they're private just tell em that Max is out here." he says raising his voice slightly. He has a heavy accent.
"Sir I'm going to have to ask you to leave." the lady says. He closes his eyes.
"Ma'am my name is Maximilian Lehane, now will you please go and get one of them." he says very calmly.
"Do you have ID?" the woman asks. I see his eye twitch. I think he's losing patience. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out an ID. "Sorry mr. Leehany this isn't valid identification." she says.
"Lehane ma'am. Its Lehane. And how is that not valid?" he asks. She raises an eyebrow.
"Its an expired school ID." she says. I hear him mutter 'fuck.'
"Look I wasn't there to get a new one and any other identification is either with them or in Boston. So if you would please get my father. Its kinda important." he says. He sure is nice compared to the other two Lehanes I've met.
"Sorry sir. No can do." the woman says.
"I am not asking you I am telling you if you want you job or any other source of income I suggest you go and get my father!" he yells.
"Max!" I look up and see Faith and her father. Both looking highly amused.
"sorry dad, but the lady here wouldn't go get ya and I needed to tell ya the doctors need ya at the hospital." he says shooting the woman a glare. His father nods and begins to walk away. He stops at the door and throws Faith some keys.
"Max, you're living with your sister from now on." he says with a smile and turns to leave. Max turns to Faith and they share a smile and run out. Kate and I are right behind them. They stop at a very nice silver Mercedes.
"Nice car." I say. They look at me like I'm an alien.
"Nice car she says. Erin don't she know that this is a CL65 AMG. It is a coupe. Hasn't been released yet with-" Faith cuts him off.
"Max! I think ya lost em buddy." she says. I see Kate has the same blank and slightly loss expression I have. He sighs.
"Its a coupe with very nice rims." I give him a nod and a smile. "You're not datin either of them are ya? Cus if ya are how can ya date a chick that don't know her cars?" he asks. Faith gives a nervous laugh.
"No max I'm not dating either of them." then she turns to us. "Forgive him, he has a thing for rims and cars, although can't say I'm any better." she says turning back to her brother. "And you no more designin cars til ya get your own." he starts to whine following her to the trunk. Finally I notice her name is written in cursive on the side in black letters. She opens the trunk and I think this car cost more than anything I've seen. She has to do a hand scan to get the trunk completely open! When its finally open they look at each other.
"Can you say boo yah?" she asks.
"Ah boo yah." he responds. Now I'm a little curious as to what that conversation with her father was about. She's in a better mood.
"Yo Kate, you comin' right?" Faith asks Kate.
"Um yeah." she replies.
"You stayin or ya gonna motor when its all done?" Faith asks. Kate seems to think.
"Well I'd leave of course. I have a job here." she says to Faith. What the hell is she digging for?!
"What if I gave ya a job?" Faith asks. Kate looks skeptical.
"What kind of job?"
"You could work for me like in a professional field or you could be Megan's nanny seein as how I trust ya and all. Pay'll be good, flexible hours, dental plan, free food, can't beat it." Faith says. Kate chuckles.
"So you're staying in sunnydale and you want me to stay too?" she asks. Faith raises her head then max starts digging around in the trunk.
"Pretty much. It'd be great to have you around." she says with a shrug.
"Alright. But what about the 'gang' and all of that?" kate asks.
"What about em? They don't want me there who gives a shit. Not like its their city or nothin." no say what you really feel about the situation.
"Sunnydale has one slayer. It doesn't need two, there are other hell mouths." I say crossing my arms over my chest. She raises an eyebrow at me.
"You got a point?" she asks.
"Sunnydale is my turf and once you get your daughter I don't want you on it." I say coldly. She just laughs.
"Sunnydale is my city. If I want to be there I will be. I'm gonna be there. Sorry if ya don't like it Revlon." she says and max almost chokes with laughter.
"First off, I am a natural blond, and secondly sunnydale isn't your city." I say. How dare she imply that I'm not natural.
"Legally sunnydale belongs to me. Everything the mayor owned, as listed in his will, goes to me. So sunnydale and a whole lotta other shit is mine. Sorry to burst your bubble herbal essence." she says. I am natural.
"I'm natural!" I say. She chuckles.
"You wanna ride back to Fangs to pick up what ever you drove here?" she asks. Considering we drove kate's car here I guess I should say yes.
"Sure what ever." I say. She nods.
"Alright. C'mon guys." she says. Max is automatically in the front seat and he starts doing the very childish thing and annoying poor Faith. I can't help the small smile that slides onto my face when I think about her living so close to me. Who knows. Maybe we can do this right.
