Buffy's Return
Chapter 24
Faiths POV
I’m pacing again; B should be here in like half an hour, the tension in the room is almost unbearable. At least I aint the only one pacing, Spike and Wolfie seem to be in the pacing zone too. I guess it looks kind of funny, me pacing one way around the outside of the room, Spike going the other way and Wolfie pacing back and forth in a straight like in the middle… synchronised pacing… it’s an art…
The new slayers still left with us are sitting around on various chairs or on the floor. Willow is sitting on the big green armchair wringing her hands and mouthing something that looks suspiciously like babbling inside her head. Xander is remaining really calm from what I can see; he is talking very quietly to Casper (that’s the Rachel chick, she is so pale its unbelievable.) Andrew is sitting in Jens arms; guess who is the girl in that relationship!
I look at the clock for the millionth time. I hate waiting… why couldn’t I have gone to meet them at the airport? Then I wouldn’t have had to wait all this time… I carry on walking in a big circle around the room, I catch Red’s eyes for a second and she returns my weak smile.
B is gonna kill me, I’m banging her best friend… this is probably worse than what happened with me and Xand… okay so maybe Buffy will be okay with it I mean we have been getting along pretty well lately… it’s the brat that is gonna kill me and she don’t know her own strength yet according to Red. Why couldn’t me and Willow have just run away together? It’s not like they need us on the hell mouth anymore, there are enough slayers to go around nowadays.
No Faith stop it. Everything will be fine, Willow said she will speak to them all and make it all okay and no one will be stabbed in the stomach. Oh god, Giles… I didn’t even think about him before. He’s like Red’s second dad, he’s known her longer than me and he helped see her through the magic breakdown.
Okay so I am just being paranoid right? Please let me just be paranoid and nothing come of it. I rub my hands together, yuck sweaty palms… I rub my hands over my pants to try and get rid of the sweat but all that happens is that they make a weird farting noise… fucking leather pants!
Luckily for me and my dignity the door to the living room opens just before anyone can poke fun. The three fill into the room lead by Giles. At least the waiting is over.
“Hey guys.” Well B seems as perky as I remember.
Spike in his pacing has managed to situate himself at the furthest most point of the room from the door. Giles’ eyes clap on him and almost come out of their sockets. Just like in the cartoons. At first yeah it’s funny. Then it’s like, how is B going to react?
“Hey Spike.” And she goes to sit between her two best friends. That was it. Her ex boyfriends has risen from the dead. Twice, technically. He was already dead when he wore that thing that dusted him down under the seal. And all he gets is a ‘hey Spike.’
On the up side though no panic attack from the buff-myster. Spending way too much time with Xander.
He gives one of those little nods that he does with a simple “Buffy.” in acknowledgement.
I watch as the brat walks across the room to Spike and punches him in the arm sending him hurtling into the wall with a crack.
“OUCH!” He shouts dusting himself off.
“Don’t ever do that to me again!” She screams at him before attaching herself to the ex-vamps waist.
Spike looks down at Dawn and pats her on the head affectionately like one would do to a loveable dog.
All eyes are darting between Spike and Buffy, B isn’t doin’ much except smiling a lot and hugging Will and Xander a lot.
“So what is the situation here then?” Giles asks examining the room.
Spike pipes up first. “Well this place here is Oz’s, he says we can all stay and work together, get it going into a little slayer central for the new hell mouth.”
“Are you sure you have enough room?” Giles asks Oz.
“Yeah.” Oz replies in his usual to the point manner.
I people watch for a while, picking up on little bits of conversation.
I watch as Giles examines the bookshelf. “Oh my!” He exclaims picking up one of the big books. “Are these yours?” He asks Oz.
Oz nods at him. And motions to the bookcase in a kind of ‘help yourself’ gesture. With that one movement we have lost Giles for at least a week.
“Come on B lets get you unpacked.” I say walking out of the room. Am I not allowed to be nice? Why does everyone have to look at me weird when I do something like this?
Never the less Buffy follows me up the stairs and into an empty room.
“So how you doin’ then B? Dealing with everything okay? You know with Spike and stuff?” I’ve started babbling like willow, great it’s catching.
“I’m fine…” she says opening her suitcase and pulling out her neatly folded clothes.
“You don’t sound too sure.” I say helping her hang up her clothes in the closet.
“It’s just a bit weird isn’t it… having to catch up on all the gossip and everything is a bit overwhelming…” she trails off for a second. “…Faith?” Oh shit, she said my name, she wants something. “Do you know what is happening with Willow? She has been acting a bit strange and it’s like she’s hiding something, she keeps babbling and we all know babbling Willow means something bad.”
Ohhhh Shit! Why the hell did I have to be all nice and come up here, what am I going to say? Willow promised that she would deal with ‘the talk’ and here I am trapped in a room with her asking me… I am so gonna get my ass kicked. “Erm, I don’t know what you mean…” Yeah, yeah I know I can’t lie but I have to try in this situation. “Hey, why don’t I go and get Willow and you can ask her yourself?” I say practically running to the door.
Buffy walks to the door and blocks my exit. “You know something.” She says with her arms folded across her chest.
“Listen B, Willow said she would tell you about it so that’s what is gonna happen. I am gonna go downstairs now and send her up and then you can talk and everything will be great… Okay? Good.” I walk around her and run down the stairs to find Red.
I look for a while and finally find her talking to Dawn in the kitchen.
I stand for a second fidgeting on the spot waiting for them to stop talking and giggling. I wait for a full minute before I get impatient. “Hey Red, can I speak to ya for a second?” I ask grabbing her arm and leading her outside onto the porch.
I pull my smokes out of my pocket and light one taking a deep cleansing nicotine filled breath. “Okay so B asked me what you wanted to talk to her about and so I said I didn’t know but you know what I am like with lying and so she knew I was lying and then she kept asking and I don’t wonna tell her, you said you would so here I am telling you to go and talk to her whilst I grab Xander and go… somewhere that isn’t here.” I say taking another huge drag on my smoke.
