The day before, Faith, Jack and Duncan finished their run. Merc had went out to dinner (alone) and Jack went home to eat, leaving Duncan and Faith alone in Merc's lair.
"Duncan, what was it like living with Jacknife?" Faith asked the man trying to break the silent atmosphere between them. "Well, he was always crazy and kind of annoying at times, constantly calling me lil bro bro in front of everyone. That was embarrassing in high school. Especially when he hit on every girl in school even MY girl friend."
"Maybe because he wanted her to leave you without saying that she hated your ugly face," Faith said. She looked serious, but Duncan knew she was kidding. "Ha, ha."
"Wonder what it would be like if Duncan kissed me..... I mean, Jacknife never did, his brother's a lil more loose around me. Why would he tell me no? He probably wouldn't."
"So, you never had a real girl friend huh?"
"No. It upsets me. A LOT."
"It's fine, Duncan. You'll get a girlfriend soon." Faith said sounding reassuring. Faith had a very serious tone. She couldn't help it though, it was how she talked. Duncan realized that she didn't have that tone with his brother, he had to loosen Faith up. She needed to feel more comfortable around him.
"So, Faith, you ever had a boyfriend?"
"No, you gonna be my first?" Faith asked with a smile on her face. Duncan was shocked she even said that. "Did she just say that...."
"You gonna answer?"
"Do you want me to be?"
"I guess.... I mean your brother never liked me so why not you?"
"Faith if you don't like me and you want my brother chase after him. If you fail, don't come after me because you want someone to hold you. Don't come after me because you want someone related to Jack. If you want me, love me for me."
"I love you..." Faith stood up and faced Duncan, their noses brushing up against each other. Faith's eyes were closed, she was thinking Duncan was going to kiss her. Duncan closed his eyes and rested his hands on her waist. She put her hands on the back of his neck. Duncan slid his hands up her back until he reached the top of Faith's ribs. (on her back OF COURSE) He pulled her a little closer and their lips met. Faith cocked her head to the side a bit as she felt something crawl up her spine. The two were nervous about what they were doing even though it was very fun. Faith moaned and Duncan did the same. Faith slid one hand into his spiked hair. "Just like Jack's hair," She was thinking. She dove farther into his lips and the kiss only got better. Duncan squeezed Faith to him. The woman retaliated by combing her hands through his hair. Duncan pushed her away but Faith's desire for more pulled her back to him like a magnet. He pushed away again but this time, he pushed her onto the couch. He fell over her and kissed her more passionately. Faith didn't like that and went wild. She pulled his head so his lips were far into hers and their kiss was the best experience of their lives. Faith calmed herself down and pulled away.
"Duncan," She said breathing hard. "That was soo good...." She pulled her head back so most of her neck was showing. Duncan leaned in and left butterfly kisses on it. Faith moaned again and the vibration in her throat came to his lips. Faith opened her eyes to see Jacknife standing right over her.
"JACKNIFE?" She yelled. Duncan hoped off of Faith like she was on fire. Faith too hopped off of the couch.
"What on Earth is wrong with you two?"
