Switching it up a bit for this chapter, I know you're all probably wondering what happened/is happening to Naomi but I felt like this was needed to get a few seeds planted for the rest of the story. So this chapter will be from Emily's POV and I'm a bit nervous about it honestly but we shall see. It's a bit shorter than normal but I wanted to get it up quickly. Un Beta'd as always so all mistakes are mine and mine alone. Enjoy!

As always thank you for the reviews/follows/ favorites!

I don't own skins/ buffy but if I did Emily would not be living in New York and Buffy and Faith would of totally gotten together ;)

Chapter 5

Emily's POV

I've never seen anyone move like her before, graceful, elegant, so sure of herself and yet at the same time dangerous, sexy and lets be honest a bit of a klutz. The first time I laid eyes on her I was lost. Me, Emily Fitch, womanizer of Bristol, irrevocably lost to a girl I've never even talked to. Though I have to admit, the first time that we met was a bit odd, but beggars can't be choosers. I did find it a bit weird that she uses the library to fight with a dummy, but I guess weirder things have happened. But even I couldn't deny that seeing her attack this dummy did things to me, things that I felt directly in my stomach and move gradually lower the more I watched her. I didn't even know it was happening but soon I found myself getting closer and closer to her. I was so close that I could see, in detail, the beautiful blonde curls that fell just past her shoulders. I quickly found myself wondering what it would feel like to run my hand through her hair, to pull on it, and to see those beautiful blonde locks along my body, most importantly between my legs.

Before I could even reach out to touch her locks I found myself pinned against the wall, with said blonde pushing me against it. The first thing that I notice about her is her smell, its so unique that I'm not even sure that I could describe it, like winter and lilies mixed with her light sweat and it's doing my head in. I think it's now officially my favorite smell in the world. The next thing that I notice is her body pressed against mine, and my God does it feel spectacular. She's obviously someone who spends a lot of time working out and I am so so grateful for that right now. Even though I was pinned to a wall it felt almost like we fit together, like our bodies were made to touch each other, which if I'm honest freaked me out a bit. The last thing that I notice is her eyes, striking blue eyes that feel as if they are tearing through my soul and piercing my heart. I'll never be able to look at the color blue without thinking of her. Despite the way in which we were introduced we hit it off, walking a delicate line between flirtation and friendship. Throughout the week it took all of my strength and will power to not simply push her up against a wall and ravage her, and from some of the looks that she was giving me she was thinking along the same lines.

When she invited me to Goldz I hesitated for a bit, not only because I would be meeting her entire gang of friends for the first time but because I was a bit hesitant to put myself in a situation involving alcohol and Naomi. And if I'm being honest, I was looking out for myself when it came to Naomi, not because I thought that she had any ill will towards me but sometimes when I think that we had made good progress or had a particularly interesting round of flirting, I could visibly see her pull away from me. I could see it in her eyes, the hesitation and the wall come down firmly in place. So I was a bit hesitant, after all why would I spend time trying to be with someone who would close off and hide? But when I saw the panicked look in her eyes I decided that if nothing else that we could at least be friends, I'm capable of that. Yeah right. No one has ever turned you down before and no one has gotten under your skin like Campbell has, even under such a short time. "Just Friends" my ass.

This brings me to the present, looking nervously through my wardrobe desperate to find an outfit that will make Naomi speechless. Finally finding the perfect balance between comfort and sexy, I feel confidant that Naomi will most definitely appreciate my effort. Just friends you say eh?

"Fucking lezza are you done yet?! I'd like to get there before Christmas for chrissake."

"Deal with it Katie, how many times have you made me wait? Exactly so shut it."

"Alright, alright, untwist your panties yeah. Naomi would be well stupid to not notice how fit you look tonight."

"Wha...ho-"

"How did I know you were trying to impress her? Please Ems, you two have sex written all over your faces when your in the same room as each other. Though I have to admit I never thought I'd see the day when you were interested in a girl for more than two days."

"Yeah well, Naomi's different, or she feels different at least. All I know is that the first thing that pops into my head isn't just 'I want to fuck that girl,' which says something I think, right?"

"Fuck yeah Ems, like totally go for it then babe! It's about time you get your girlfriend and even I have to admit Campbell is fit, not as fit as Effy but still, fit."

Why would Katie compare Naomi to Effy? I mean sure she, like any other woman, has had a number of girl crushes, even made out with a few, but something in the way she said Effy's name intrigued me. I'll have to bring it up later and see how she reacts. "Oh shut it Katie, I've had girlfriends before."

"Oh really? Who then? Sarah the ditzy cow who you took out to breakfast after you fucked? Or are you talking about Jess who you ran into twice at the club the weekend after you shagged and took a quick fuck in the toilets, thought I didn't notice you dozy cow. Or were you talking about Julie who followed you around for a month after you slept together. No not them? Alright maybe it was-"

"I get it Katie! Alright, fine I haven't had a girlfriend satisfied?"

"Thrilled, now lets go bitch."

Finding their table was easy enough, especially when I have a habit of surveying the room for my favorite blonde, quickly finding her at the table in the corner. And holy shit did she look hot, I quickly found myself walking over to their table not even caring if Katie was following me or not. I stood near the table hovering a bit, unable to form a complete sentence because I was distracted with how Naomi looked tonight. I felt a sharp jab in my side, obviously Katie trying to knock me out of my obvious perving. I finally found my voice and oh so elegantly said "Hey Guys." but shortly after that the only thing I could focus on was Naomi's top and the extreme amount of skin that was on show. I desperately wanted nothing more than to feel it beneath my hands, to kiss her shoulder and feel her wriggling beneath me. I bet she's so soft. Being caught perving was certainly not on my list of things to do for the night but seeing Naomi do the same thing back to me certainly made it worth it. When our arms brushed against each other I felt like my body was shoved into a volcano, my entire body was on fire and alive in a way that I had never felt before.

After a few more grazes and glances I was well on edge and could go for a large amount of alcohol so Cook's proposal of Never Have I Ever sounded perfect. It all started out innocent, as innocent as this group can be, and lighthearted but gradually became more personal and as always sexual. When it came to my turn I was heavily buzzed bordering on being drunk and had loosened up significantly. If I hadn't drank so much there is no way that I would have said what I did, nor would I have looked Naomi directly in the eyes while doing so. Stupid, so stupid! Not only did I have this humiliating feeling to content with but I also knew that Effy was staring at me. I originally thought that Naomi had the most intense blue eyes I have ever seen but I was wrong, Effy's eyes literally looked into my soul, paired with her 'I don't give a fuck' attitude I could see why Katie thought she was fit. And that damn smirk, like she knows your deepest darkest secrets and simply laughs at them because they are nothing compared to hers. Fucking all seeing bitch. All of these things combined caused me to reach for more alcohol.

The rest of the game continues to go smoothly until it's Effy's turn, and from the look in her eyes I knew it would be trouble and what she says simply floors me. "Never have I ever..." Looking directly at Naomi, making it painstakingly clear that she was directing it towards her. "Been so afraid of love or commitment that I shut out every opportunity presented to me, choosing instead to go through life lonely and miserable and adopting a nickname such as the Ice Queen. And I've certainly never fought against something that makes me completely whole and feels completely right because I'm afraid of letting myself show an ounce of vulnerability." I look to the side of Naomi's head, searching for any sign that this is about me, it has to be about me. Especially with the smirk that is now cemented on Effy's face. I continue to look at her, pleading in my mind for her to make eye contact with me, but before she could respond Cook comes back to the table.

"Blondie! Babe, gotta take out a va-... go outside with me for a bit. There's that thing that we didn't do yeah?"

Take out a what? A va? What the hell is a va?! And why would Naomi have to take care of something, she specifically told me that she was free all night. There was something fishy going on within this group because when I looked around they all seemed to know what was going on, all of them except Katie, Jamie and I, all three of us clearly out of the loop. I always had a suspicion that something odd takes place within this group, at least with Effy, Cook and Naomi. They had a look about them, a look that said "We know the real world, you are all floating around in it covered in ignorance." They were immeasurably mysterious. The rest of the group seemed normal enough but by the looks upon their face it was clear that they knew what was going on and from the vibe within the group it seemed as if this was a normal occurrence. I watched Naomi sway a bit before she got to her feet and walk straight out through the door.

The group continues on as if nothing suspicious just occurred but I can't help but continue to think about Naomi. Where did she go?Why didn't Cook go out with her if he said they needed to go outside for a bit? And most importantly what the hell is going on?! About ten minutes passed without Naomi returning to the table and I just could not let it go, so I asked"Where is Naomi? I thought she was free all night?"

"Don'cha worry Emilio, just having a quick word with an old friend, nothing to worry about." If it was nothing to worry about then why did Cook shoot a worried glance over to Effy? Why do both of them look so nervous? There was something going on here and Naomi was smack in the middle of it. I'm going to get to the bottom of this if it's the last thing that I do.

What'ya think about Emily POV? I figured it would be nice to see what she was thinking/going through. There will be a few more chapters from her POV because there has to be for plot reasons. But rest assured the next chapter will be Naomi's POV and we will find out if Naomi is alive... or maybe she's a vampire now? Who knows ;)

P.S. This story is getting more hits than I thought it would and I'm extremely grateful! So leave a review of the sort of things you might want to see happen in the story. I have the major plot planned out but if it works with it or tickles my fancy I'll put it in. So please please anything you can do to help I would appreciate 3
