ooohh… the fire."

The Present

Wesley was painfully aware of the body pressed against his chest,

sleek, dangerous thighs grazing his waist and a pair of killer hands

resting at his neck, tickling his hairline and sending shivers dancing

down his spine. His nose was full of the smell of peppermints as his

hands rested gently on her waist. His thumbs itched to go higher, to

mold around the soft globes crushed against his chest, but he held

still as she moved her mouth against his.

Her lips were warm, wet and soft as she pressed them to his. At first

they didn't quite meet; he was surprised, a little petrified, and she

was out of practice. But after a few seconds they found a rhythm that

seemed far too natural.

Slow, seductive and deliberate was how he would describe her

kisses. She would readily agree if she were in a position to speak.

Wesley found, with some surprise, that she wasn't using her tongue.

Didn't seem natural to him and he wondered if he just…

His tongue scraped her lips and she immediately opened her mouth

to allow him entrance, sucking on it lightly and scraping it against her

teeth. His head tilted so he could thrust more slowly inside, her

tongue massaging his own as she let out a moan that went straight

through him.

One of her hands slid around to the collar of his shirt and slipped

inside. Surprised, he tried to pull away, but her hand tightened on the

back of his neck, keeping him where he was-not that he minded. His

own hand ventured further upward and she surged into his palm, one

of her leather-clad legs wrapping around his, pulling him that much

closer.

It occurred to him, in his sluggish brain, that things weren't supposed

to go this far. This was just an experiment. Right?

Earlier

"Where's Soul Boy?" Faith asked as she descended the stairs,

taking them two at a time. Wesley looked up from the phone,

gesturing to the Slayer with one hand as he spoke to the client on

the other end of the line.

"Yes Mrs. Multrigger. I've… I've sent my colleagues over. YES…

they… they should be there… they should be there… in….in… FIVE

MINUTES! Yes! Five. FIVE! No… FIVE! GOODBYE!" Wesley all but

slammed the phone down on the hook, collapsing in his chair, his

head on the counter.

"Mule Trigger again?" Faith asked, jumping up on the edge of the

counter and reaching into the tin of candy canes next to the phone.

"Yes. I do wish the woman would turn up her hearing aide. It would

make my life so much simpler." Wesley moaned, taking off his

glasses and setting them down next to his head.

"At least she's paying us massive gobs of money. Why didn't you

wake me up? I could have gone and gotten this infestation thing

under control." She said, unwrapping the candy cane and sucking on

the straight end of the peppermint.

Wesley looked up and answered with a sigh. "Angel and Cordelia

said they could handle it. Besides, you had a late patrol last night. I

thought you could use the rest."

"How thoughtful of you." Faith said, sucking on her candy cane as

Wesley studied her.

She'd been here no less than two months and already she had

eased into life at the Hyperion. Prison time had served her well and

Wesley was grudgingly glad she'd joined the team. Then why was he

still uneasy around her? Why did looking at her make his guts twist

and his heart to lurch?

"Helloooo? Wesley?" Faith called, shaking him out of his reverie.

"Oh, sorry. What were you saying?"

"I asked you where the others went."

"Fred and Gunn went out for lunch and Lorne said he had to see a

client."

"So it's just you and me, huh?"

"I suppose so."

Silence descended on them as Wesley watched Faith crunch her

candy cane rather noisily, her feet pulled up so that she was sitting

cross-legged on the counter. He followed her every move, his eyes

lingering on her lips as she sucked on the bitten end of the candy

cane. She looked up from her candy and stared at him.

"What?"

"Nothing."

"You were staring at me."

"No I wasn't."

"Were too. You were checking me out, Watcher."

"I beg your pardon! I was doing no such thing. I was just… wishing

you'd stop eating so loudly."

"Oh." Silence fell over them for a moment more and then Faith

spoke, "It's okay if you were, you know."

"Were what?" Wesley asked cautiously, afraid of the gleam in her

eye.

"Checking me out. I wouldn't mind."

"I would."

"And why is that? Don't think I'm a sexy piece of hottie? Wes, you've

bruised my fragile ego!" Her hand went over her heart and Wesley

glared at her.

"Faith, I don't think we should-"

"Are you attracted to me, Wesley?" She interrupted, staring at him

rather soberly. Wesley was taken aback by her abruptness, blinking

in stunned silence for a moment.

"I don't… Faith… I… No, I'm not."

"Not even just a little bit?"

"No."

"So, if I kissed you right now, you'd feel nothing? Is that what you're

saying?"

"Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying."

"Well then, let's fucking try it out." Faith said, and before Wesley

could move, she'd swung her legs around the side of the counter,

flinging them to either side of him.

"What?" Wesley choked, panic rising and his mind running in frantic

circles. How the hell had this happened?

"Kiss me." She said as she tossed her candy cane aside. Wesley

cringed as the wet candy landed on his notepad.

"Faith, I am not going to-"

"Why not? It's not like you're attracted to me or anything. It'll be like

kissing your sister."

"I don't have a sister."

"It was an example, asshole. Now, kiss me you fool!"

"I will not!"

"Chicken."

"I am not chicken." Wesley stood up and glared down at her from her

perch on the edge of the counter.

"Then why won't you? If you're not attracted, it shouldn't matter. We'll

kiss, prove you don't like me even a little and move on with our lives.

It's a simple experiment. Not like I'm asking you to fuck me!"

There really wasn't much he could say. If he refused to kiss her, then

she'd think he was attracted to her, but if he did kiss her, then

they'd… be kissing. Wesley hated the double-edged sword scenarios

that life presented him sometimes. There was only one clear choice

here, but he didn't think he could kill her and get away with it. No,

he'd just to have to suck it up and-

Wesley was shocked out of his thoughts once more as she grabbed

him, pulling his head to hers and pressing her lips to his with one

swift movement. He didn't move for a split second as he felt her body

against his and then…

And then… they were kissing….

The Present

Things had gone so horribly, horribly, wonderfully wrong. And Wesley

didn't care.

His lips were swollen and time seemed to have stopped. He wasn't

sure how long they'd been like this, just drinking from each other and

dragging in small lungfuls of air every few minutes. He felt light-

headed and hard in all the right places. Every caress from her hands

electrified his skin and made him strive to hear the throaty moans

she graced him with every time he did something right.

Neither one had spoken since her challenge had been put forth and

Wesley didn't think he could. Not when her hands were playing with

the zipper of his trousers, teasing him, threatening him and making

him push into her body, eager for her to make good on her unspoken

promises. His own hands had already ventured beneath her tight

tank top; groping, twisting and causing those moans that were the

fuel on his fire.

She started to unzip his trousers as Wesley felt his heartbeat

quicken, his mouth moving against hers frantically. Naturally, that's

when the phone had to ring.

FuckshitfuckshitFUCK.

They broke apart, whatever spell they'd been under dispelling in a

second. Faith blinked at him, her red lipstick smudged and her hair a

mass of wild curls. She took a trembling breath and glanced over at

the phone as it rang once more. Wesley followed her gaze and

stared at the blasted contraption, glaring with all his might.

It rang once more before Faith reached over and picked it up off the

hook. "Angel Investigations. Oh, HELLO MULE TRIGGER!"

Wesley immediately snatched the phone away from the Slayer and

glared at her as she laughed and leaned back on the counter. She

listened as Wesley screamed into the phone; chuckling as he went

red in the face, before slamming the phone back down. He turned to

her and took a deep breath.

"What did the old bat want?"

"One of the mother Bok'aa's ate her parakeet and she's blaming

Angel. She wanted to deduct the price of the bird from the case fee,

but I managed to talk her down. I assured her it wasn't our fault that-

" His rambling was cut off as sat up and put her hand over his mouth.

"Are you attracted to me, Wesley?" Her eyes searched his and he

knew he couldn't say no. His actions of the past, however long they

were tangled together, pretty much proved otherwise, so he shook

his head and watched a smile stretch across her smudged, swollen

mouth.

"I knew it." She slid off the counter and left him standing there,

staring after her.

"Where… where are you going?" Wesley asked, wiping the lipstick

away from his mouth with the back of his hand.

"Thought I'd take a shower." She said as she started up the stairs.

Wesley's heart fell a moment before she looked back over her

shoulder and smiled widely. "You coming?"

Wesley didn't have to be asked twice as he followed her up the

stairs, taking her hand in his possessively, still rather dazed. The

past hour had zipped by him and now here he was… doing Lord-

knew-what with Faith. He glanced over at her as they reached the

landing and realized he could think of a worst ways to spend an

hour.

Kissing Faith definitely wasn't one of them.
