Author notes: Another of Dark Knight's challenges. Pick names from hat to be a character's lovers, make a story out of it with characters in order. I picked from hat in order Faith, Vampire Willow, Kennedy, Phoebe Halliwell, and Hermione Granger.
For those of you who think that Faith and Buffy had a little something going on after slaying hours... well, as the sidekick best friend of the Slayer, who better than me to give you the scoop on that, right? Well, honestly, though, I don't know. I had my suspicions at the time, still do actually, but I had proof. Fortunately.
I had my suspicions, but more than that, I had my jealousies. Not because Buffy was spending so much time with Faith, or because it seemed like plain old non-killing, non-dancing, non-sexy Willow was being shoved aside in favor of Miss Five-by-Five. All which was true, of course, but none of that mattered. Well, it mattered, but not as much as what I really hated about Buffy spending so much time with Faith.
I didn't feel jealous for Buffy's attention, or lack of it... I was jealous because she was taking Faith away from me. Yeah, I know, I always acted like I didn't like Faith, and in a way I guess I didn't. I mean, she was so loud and crude and- and just gross sometimes. She was everything I was never attracted to... and yet she was just so, so gorgeous and free and drool-worthy. Very, very droolworthy.
I never did anything about my Faith fixation... I'm not sure what I was more afraid of, her rejection, or her accepting, than proceeding to jump my bones and give me a heart attack at the ripe age of eighteen. I think she knew though. I caught her giving me these looks sometimes, when she was oh-so-casually playing with Buffy's hair, or draping an arm around her. This look that was all knowing and sexy and amused... like she knew exactly what I was thinking and enjoyed tormenting me. Which was probably true.
A couple of times she slapped my ass- only playfully, of course- and once she did kiss me, after she'd had a few shots. Both were quick, and she gave me a shit-eating grin afterward, but I could feel my skin tingling where she'd touched me for almost an hour afterward.
Of course, once she did the whole turning-evil thing my attraction faded a bit, especially once she tried to kill me. Still... even with a knife at my throat, had she decided to make out with me, it wouldn't be a forced thing at all.
There must be something about supernatural power girls, because it seems
practically everyone after Faith I got with was into something along those lines. I guess she must have made an even bigger impact than I thought on me.
First there was the vampire version of me... okay, so I know that's a little freaky, getting it on with someone who's your doppelganger. Someone who basically IS you, except for, you know, the fangs and immortality and a craving for fresh blood. But one bonus was that she knew exactly what I liked... not instructions were necessary, if you get what I mean.
Then of course, there was Kennedy. Again with the supernatural powers, being a potential Slayer and everything. But that blew up in my face eventually. We just started to rub each other wrong eventually, and no, not in the pervy sexual way you're thinking either. Although actually the sex did go kapooey once we started fighting so much. The little brat ended up leaving me for some girl who was barely eighteen, I went to drown my sorrows at this club P3 in retaliation. Which is where I met Phoebe Halliwell.
Things were pretty hot and heavy with Phoebe for a while; to be a previously very straight and man-loving kind of girl, she was way open to experimenting. She was a witch too; in fact, she was a Charmed one. Between our parents, our losses, and the fact that both of us kick evil ass and had been evil more than a few times ourselves, we had a pretty good thing going for a while. But between our crazy-busy, evil-fighting schedules, it just got too hard after while. She had her sisters, her jobs, and her demon fighting constantly pulling at her, and with me too it was too much. It was an amicable split, unlike all the other aforementioned ones.
Right now I'm with Hermione Granger, and it seems to me that maybe this one is the real thing. She's a little younger than me, and she can be kind of bossy, but she has a caring heart that never ceases to amaze me. We have so much in common... Hermione is a witch too, and we have similar childhoods and past experiences, and even personalities. I really think I love her... and hopefully, this love will be one that will overcome anything else. Hopefully she's the right supernatural power girl for me...
