Faith pov.
Runnin' away
I don't know how we got here. Me and B. one minute we're just friends and now? Now she's tellin me she wants me.
I had the perfect girl we'd spend together hours everyday
could say that I had it made and I was all for the commitment
but then she started wantin more from me and my mind began to change
suddenly I didn't feel the same
I didn't know what I was doin'
I was dodgin commitment
start but don't finish
my aims always the same girl I know I've been trippin
I'm confessin I'm confessin so baby just hear me out
I'm confessin I'm confessin so baby just hear me out
I wanna show my heart but I don't know where to start
but ya see no matter how much I love B, I can't be with her. I want to but I'm not willin to take the risk of the possibility of getting hurt. Not again. Not now.
So I keep runnin'
real love's in my face so why am I breakin away
I keep runnin
so scared of heartbreak
so scared of makin mistakes
I keep runnin
when I all I really need is you
all I really need is you
I keep on runnin away
if I'm not with her no heartache. But why do I feel like she'd be the only one to never hurt me.
"Faith, I love you." she says lookin me in the eye holdin onto my hand. I pull away from her touch and her gaze
I caught my second wind of happiness when I met this girl and then
we became the best of friends
we went from half full to half empty
I took a detour tryina find myself while I'm on this road again
want outta this box I'm in
I made it harder to be with me
we're arguin right now. I'm givin her all the reasons she couldn't love me.
"B! I'm fuckin evil! Don't you get it?! I'm the devil's child! I'm not now, never have been, and never will be one of the good guys!" but it don't work on her.
I was dodgin commitment
start but don't finish
my aims always the same girl
I know I've been trippin
I'm confessin I'm confessin so baby just hear me out
I'm confessin I'm confessin so baby just hear me out
I wanna show my heart but I don't know where to start
"Tell me how you feel Faith. About me. Tell me what's in there." she says pointin to where my heart is.
So I keep runnin
real love's in my face why am I breakin away
I keep runnin
so scared of heartbreak
so scared of makin mistakes
I keep runnin
when all I really need is you
all I really need is you
but I keep on
runnin away
I don't say nothin. Somethin's gotta convince this girl we aint gonna work.
"You love me." its not a question cus she already knows. How do I tell her though? I look in her eyes and I know I'm not gonna run from this much longer. She's determined.
"I'm raisin a kid." I try weakly. She smiles a little. She knows she's convincin me.
"We'll deal."
I'm bout to break down baby I'm done
no I can't keep up runnin this marathon
no need to race when I've already won
and if I got you by my side then I've already won
it's like lookin for a treasure when its already mine
it don't make sense don't make sense no matter how hard I try to defy
I'm comin face to face with myself(self)
I know I don't need don't need noone else(else)
so can somebody tell me where I'm goin
so can somebody tell me where I'm goin
I keep runnin
when real love's in my face why am I breakin away
I keep runnin
so scared of heartbreak
so scared of makin mistakes
I keep runnin
when all I really need is you
all I really need is you
so I keep on
runnin away
I keep runnin
real love's in my face why am I breakin away
I keep runnin
so scared of heartbreak
so scared of makin mistakes
I keep runnin
when all I really need is you
all I really need is you
so I keep on
runnin away
so what's the point? There isn't one. I'm scared plain and simple.
"Alright B. You're right you know." I say to her. She fuckin beams. Not smiles. Beams.
"Right about what?" she asks. I give her a look. Oh she's gonna make me say it.
"I love you." I say. Right before I kiss her everything fades.
I sit up lookin around. The hell? I'm still in my hotel room in Boston?! But it was so...ah fuck. I can't believe that was a dream. So fuckin real but it wasn't. But you know something? I'm fuckin through! I am! No more runnin. I want Buffy. I've always wanted her. I'm going to take the risk when everything is over and tell her how I've always felt. She used to feel somethin too. I know it. I might not be the smartest thing but I aint blind either. But first I have to get home. Where is that? Sunnydale. Its where B is.
Buffy pov.
I had the strangest dream. It was about me and Faith. No that's not the strange part. The strange part was the fact it was so real. I told her I wanted to be with her. We argued it out because at first she wanted to pretend she wasn't good enough but I held firm. I wanted her and I got her. She was about to kiss me but I woke up. So yeah I might be a little moody today. I wanted my kiss. Real or not. But that dream gives me confidence. Just knowing that it could really play out like that. Its a possibility. Slim but it could happen. I know that when all of this is over? I'm going to get my girl.
So this was a quick update. The song is runnin' by jesse McCartney. Its from his new album and I typed the lyrics from memory so hopefully they're right. That entire album is great. He sounds much more mature vocally. Anyway review please.
