Author’s note: another short story. This is actually part of a series I’ve been writing on the side and I just thought I’d throw this one out there.

******

Wow, I can’t believe I’m actually here. I thought by this time I would be back in my jail cell for sure. Not to mention I never thought I would be with her.

When the hellmouth was finally destroyed and took Sunnydale with it, everyone was coming down from an incredible high. I was standing right beside Buffy as we looked at the hole that had once been Sunnydale and could see that look of relief on her face. Then she hugged me.

That hug felt like pure heaven to me. I returned it gratefully and then did something I knew she wasn’t expecting: I kissed her. It was something I had always wanted to do and figured I might as well since my next stop was probably back to prison. Imagine my surprise when she returned my kiss and held me tighter.

We walked back to the bus hand in hand, much to the shock of everyone else there. We spent the ride to LA not talking, just resting against each other, her head on my shoulder. As soon as we got there I asked her out. She continued to shock me: she said yes.

She forgave me, or as she likes to put it, we forgave each other. We pushed aside all the crap we did to each other back in the day and focused on what we felt. I was more than happy that what I felt for her was mutual and returned.

Thanks to Angel, my prison record disappeared and all I had to worry about now was Buffy. I knew she was nervous about us.

We’re just returning to the hotel after our first date and we’re holding hands as we walk down the hall toward our rooms. Sure, we’ve spent pretty much all our time together, but this is the first time we’ve actually gone out somewhere. She’s been telling me a little about what’s happened to her over the last couple years and I’m trying to figure out how far I should take this tonight.

Don’t get me wrong, I want B in the biggest way. I just don’t want to push her. I’m almost positive she’s never been with another woman before and if she has, I don’t want to know about it. I’m the jealous type.

I want this to be right. I want it to be perfect and I think I’m as nervous as she is. I’ve never ‘made love’ before. God, even thinking it makes me uncomfortable. I mean, I’ve always just fucked; get some, get gone. This is a whole new situation for me and the last thing I want Buffy to think is that what we have is ‘get some, get gone’ for me.

I shake all those thoughts out of my head and look over at her and smile. Shit, she is so beautiful.

“So, this was nice,” she says slowly as she swings our hands a little. Her grip is getting tighter the closer we get to our rooms. What I wouldn’t give to know what she’s thinking.

“Yeah,” I agree simply and let go of her hand. I think she might crush it if I let her keep holding it. She gives me a questioning glance before smiling as my arm wraps around her waist. Maybe tonight is the night.

Our rooms are right across from each other and we stop once we reach them. Buffy moves toward her door but my arm around her waist stops her, keeping her against me. With my free hand, I take my key card out of my pocket and swipe it, pushing the door open. B’s looking at me and I give her a reassuring smile.

“Come on in,” I say and lead her inside.

“Okay,” she says shyly and walks into the room with me.

I flip on some lights and once we’re in the middle of the room, I pull her to me. My arms wrap around her and I kiss her tenderly. She responds, putting her hands on my back but I can tell from her kiss she’s nervous.

I move her over and we sit on the bed. “You okay, B?”

She nods. “It’s just... I mean... I’ve never...”

I kiss her to stop her babbling. I know she’s nervous. Hell, I’m nervous. I want to show her how good we can be together. Now all I’m thinking is what if I fuck up somehow and this ends. What if she leaves me after? What if I’m not what she wants? I’m at the point right now I think I’ll die if I’m not with her.

I look at her then down at our hands. I take her hand in mine and bring it up to my lips, brushing them lightly against her skin. I release her and smile.

“Let’s get a drink,” I smirk at her, trying to lighten the mood and thankfully, it works.

She smirks back at me. “Sure,” she says and moves to get up, but I put a hand on her lap.

“Sit tight, I’ve got it,” I smile and walk over to the table. I reach under it and pull out a bottle of champagne and two glasses.

“Someone’s been planning,” B laughs as I pop the cork and fill the glasses. What she doesn’t know is that I bought it two days ago and was just waiting for the right moment to bring it out.

“Not easy to do with you, either,” I laugh back as I hand her a glass and sit back next to her. “I never know what to expect from you.”

Buffy nods. “True, but you’re not so easy to read yourself.”

I only grin at her as I clink our glasses together and we each take a sip. I look her right in the eyes and try to figure her out. “Okay, I’m not easy to read. So, ask me something.”

B takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly. “What is this to you?”

Wow, I wasn’t expecting that. I think I can give her an answer she won’t expect. “Everything.”

She gives me this wide grin and I move into her, capturing her lips with my own. She sighs against me and I run the tip of my tongue along her bottom lip then push it into her mouth. Her tongue slides against mine and her free hand goes into my hair. I can’t take this anymore. I toss the glass across my room and wrap my arms around her.

Buffy simply drops hers and puts her hands on me tentatively. She must be really nervous so I keep her in a tight yet gentle embrace. We continue to kiss and I slowly start to lower her back onto the bed, but she tenses.

“It’s okay, Buffy,” I whisper to her and bring a hand to her face. I rub her cheek gently and see her eyes are starting to tear up.

“I didn’t know you knew my full name,” she says quietly while smiling. I think she’s stalling.

“I do,” I respond and lean in to brush my lips against hers. “I want you to know I’m serious.”

She nods and looks right at me with these huge eyes and I get lost in them. “I’m really nervous.”

I nod and smile at her, trying to reassure her. “I know. I’ll show you what to do, okay?”

B doesn’t say anything, just lets me lay her down on the bed. I’m really feeling the pressure now. I know it’s all on me here. Granted, I haven’t been with many women myself: one to be exact. Still, I want to give her a night she’ll never forget.

“B, baby, stand up for a second, okay?” I ask. I take her hand and bring her up to me as we both stand. I grin and kiss her sweetly as I start to unbutton her shirt. She smiles at me so I know she’s okay with this. I finally reach her last button and reach into her shirt, feeling her bare stomach. Buffy’s so soft.

My hands feel up her stomach before they move up to her shoulders, avoiding her breasts for now. I push her shirt off her and run my fingers along her arms. She shivers and I look at her.

“Okay?” I ask huskily. I have to know she wants this as much as I do.

“Yeah,” she sighs and I move in again, kissing her. As we kiss, I reach for the clasp of her bra and undo it quickly. I break our kiss only to move back so I can take her bra off. It falls to the floor and she’s topless in front of me.

I stand back and just look at her. “You are so beautiful,” I whisper before I take her hands in mine and lead them to the bottom of my shirt. She knows what I’m getting at and with my help, she takes my shirt off.

Her hands start to move over my bare skin, kind of mimicking what I was doing to her. I lower my head and kiss her shoulder while her hands continue to move. I move up and kiss around her ear.

“Keep going, baby,” I whisper to her and feel her shiver at my words. She gets the message though: her hands move back and unclasp by bra, which falls to the floor. My hands have been moving around her breasts and soon I can feel hers move up my sides. I have to get her to the bed.

I pull away just enough to sweep her off her feet and hold her close to me. She giggles a little as she runs a hand through my hair.

“Trying to play the hero?” she asks.

“Something like that,” I say and lean down to kiss her as I walk over to the bed. I lower her down and lower myself on top of her. I brush some hair out of her eyes before kissing her tenderly. We continue to kiss softly as I feel her hands sliding up and down my back. One of my hands is holding her head while I’m resting on the other.

I break the kiss and move lower, placing kisses down her neck. She hisses a little when I reach her pulse point and I think I’ve just found a sensitive spot. I linger there for a few seconds as she keeps me in a tight embrace. She feels so amazing. I want to worship every inch of her.

After her neck, I move lower, kissing along her collarbone and tasting her skin. I keep one hand on her face and she turns her head to take my thumb into her mouth. My lips are just above her breast when I stop and look up at her. She’s smiling and I can feel her tongue swirling around my thumb. I grin back and return to what I was doing.

Her nipples are already hard under my gaze and I gently take one into my mouth. This causes her to moan out quietly and release my thumb. I keep my hand against her cheek as I start to suck on her sweet nipple, grazing it with my teeth now and then.

She starts to move her body against mine as I move to her other breast. My hand moves down to her neck as I continue to massage her skin and suck on her nipple. I could do this forever, but I want to keep going. I know I can show her so much more.

I release her nipple and move to her flat stomach, placing kisses everywhere. She’s sighing under me and it’s turning me on so much. I bring my hands down to her fly and sit up to look at her while I’m doing this.

B looks me up and down and I think I can see lust in her eyes. Right now, I’m hoping it’s more than that, but I know sex is always more to her. I unbutton her jeans slowly and I can see sexy lace panties underneath. I look down and then back up to see Buffy smirking at me with an arched eyebrow. I can only grin back and she lifts up just enough for me to take her jeans off, taking her panties with them.

I slowly move her jeans and panties down her body, kissing her exposed skin as I do so. My lips brush the inside of her thighs then her knees as I move down to her feet. I quickly take off her boots and socks then get her jeans and panties off her completely.

I stand up by the bed and look at her for a moment. She’s so fucking beautiful and now my nerves are starting to hit. I do my best to shake them off as kick off my shoes and unbutton my own jeans. Pulling them and my panties off, not to mention my socks, I just stand there for a second as she looks me up and down again. She grinning and all my doubt is gone now. I know she’s ready for this.

Sitting back down on the bed, I cup her face with my hand and run my thumb against her cheek. I really want to do this right. She just smiles at me.

“Come here, Faith,” she whispers, bringing me out of all my thoughts. I grin back and climb back on the bed.

I place a hand on either side of her and prop myself above her before lowering myself back down. We both moan a little as our bare bodies come into contact with each other for the first time. First of many, I hope.

We kiss each other tenderly as her arms wrap around me again, pressing our breasts together and our centers as well. I can feel she’s starting to get real wet, but I want to take things slow, make it last forever.

Our kissing becomes deeper as her hands run along my back again. B moves her legs apart and I fall between her thighs. Our pussies rub against each other with more friction and we break our kiss to moan out into the room.

My lips can’t stay away from her for long, though. I kiss along her jaw line back to her ear where I take her earlobe into my mouth. Her hands move up into my hair as I suck on her ear then move to lick and kiss her neck.

“Faith, that feels so good,” she sighs into my ear and I smile. I can’t believe I’m doing this and with Buffy Summers no less.

I slowly trail a hand down her collarbone and then let it linger on her breast, moving it around and feeling her hard nipple rub against my palm.

She’s not being all that adventurous, though. I think she’s still really nervous, even with what I’m doing to get her turned on and relaxed. I want her to know she doesn’t have to be scared of this.

“B,” I whisper into her ear as I continue to kiss her, “you can touch me wherever you want. You know that, right?”

I move away to look into her eyes, trying to read them. Yeah, she’s nervous. She looks a little worried.

“I don’t know where,” she says so softly I can barely hear her. God, she looks embarrassed for even saying it. I give her a reassuring smile.

“Anywhere,” I whisper and kiss her again. I want her to know she can’t do anything wrong in my eyes. Her hands were just resting on my back but she slowly moves them up to my shoulders where she massages my skin. It’s small, but it’s a start. “That’s it, B.”

She smiles and lifts her head up to kiss me again. Her hands run up and down my arms as I let go of her breast and move my hand lower. I massage her stomach and suck on her neck. I can feel her wetness against me as our pussies rub against each other tentatively. I want to feel it on my fingers.

I start to move against her, attempting to build a rhythm and she’s starting to respond to me. My hand rests on her hip as her hand brushes against the side of my breast.

“Baby, I’m gonna touch you, okay?” I say and my hand moves slowly toward her curls. I brush her hair out of her face again and give her a tender kiss.

She only nods and pulls my head down so she can kiss and lick my neck. I moan out as my hand finally reaches it’s destination and slides through her curls, stopping when it reaches her clit.

B arches into my touch and tightens her grip on me. I make circular motions with my fingers on her clit as she moans out into the room. She’s turning me on so much right now and I move against her a little more now as her hands find my breasts.

She cups them and then starts to rub against them tentatively. The feel of her hands on me is incredible and I want her to explore me everywhere. I know we’ll get to that later though; right now, I want to go inside her.

I move my fingers around in her folds and she moans a little louder. She’s so wet and I know she’s ready for this. We continue to kiss as I move down to her entrance and slowly push a finger into her. I want, no, I need to go slow with this. She has to get used to it first.

I’m not stupid. I know it’s not like Buffy hasn’t had all that much sex. She was with that dull college boy and then with Spike, which I’ll never understand. It’s just that I’m pretty sure she’s never had someone push their fingers into her. That might take some getting used to.

She moans into my mouth and breaks the kiss. Her eyes are closed and I still my finger inside her, letting her adjust. When I feel she does, I slowly move my finger in and out and move my body with it, building a rhythm for her. She starts to respond and moves her hands down to rest on my ass as she moves with me.

Her wetness is starting to drip onto my hand and I add a second finger into her tight pussy. She groans out into the room and I feel her walls adjust for me again. I keep moving in and out, slowly starting to go a little faster. She’s moaning and groaning with each thrust as I continue to kiss her everywhere my lips can reach.

B’s hands have stilled and I move to look at her, my face hovering above hers. Her eyes are closed and she’s almost making a grimace as I push into her. I rest on my elbow and put my hand on the side of her face.

“Are you okay, baby?” I look at her and place kisses on her face. Hers pop open to look at me.

“Yeah,” she sighs out as I continue to move against her, “don’t stop, Faith.”

“Never,” I whisper back and push a little harder. We’re both moving against each other faster now and we’re covered in sweat. I curl my fingers inside her slightly and she cries out my name. I could not want her more right now.

I think she’s about to come with my fingers inside her. The thought is almost more than I can handle. I know what will make her come, too. I move faster, pumping my fingers into her as deep as I can. She cries out with every thrust and her nails are digging into my back.

I kiss her again before burying my face in her neck and shove a third finger inside her. I think that might do it.

“Oh, God! Faith!” she screams out and I can feel her cum start to flow out onto my hand. I don’t stop, though. I keep thrusting into her as deep as I can, grunting quietly with the force, trying to ride out her orgasm as long as possible.

After a few minutes, I think she’s starting to come down. Her body arches into me one last time and then collapses onto the bed. I slowly remove my fingers from her and start to kiss up her neck. At this point, all I’m hoping is that I didn’t hurt her and that I just blew her away.

Reaching her face, I give her soft kisses while waiting her to say something. Her breathing is starting to calm down and her arms are still wrapped tightly around me.

After a few minutes, her eyes slowly open and she looks at me with what I think is amazement. At least, I hope it is.

“Faith,” she says slowly and I wait for a letdown. That’s really all I ever expect. “That was... well, I’ve never experienced anything like it.”

“Is that good or bad?” I ask her.

She grins at me. “It’s good, baby.”

I grin back at her and roll over, taking her with me. Her head rests on my chest as I hold her to me with one hand and bring the other up to my mouth, licking it clean. She tastes amazing. I never want to let her go now, not after what we just did.

Her fingers start to trace lines on my skin just below my collarbone and she looks up at me. “Faith,” she eases out, “um, you didn’t... you know..., did you?”

I don’t know what to say to that so I go for honesty. I shake my head slowly and she looks away. I think I see a little embarrassment on her face and I put my hand on her chin, lifting her face back up to look at me.

“It’s okay, B,” I say softly before pulling her up so her face is level with mine, “we’ve got all night. You can take your time.”

She gives me the smallest of smiles before closing the distance and kissing me on the lips. I move my hands around on her back a little but I don’t tightened my hold on her at all. She should be the one leading this now. I think that might be the only way she’ll feel comfortable.

B breaks the kiss only to place small ones along my jaw back to my ear. Her hand runs through my hair as she kisses my ear. I think she’s slowly starting to get a little bolder. Her other hand is casually running up and down my side, just barely brushing my breast. And as much as I want this to last forever, she’s getting me all sorts of horny right now. I really want her to fuck me.

As she moves from my ear down my neck, I start to massage her back slowly. I know this isn’t going to happen if she’s not relaxed and I want to help her any way I can. Her lips move up to my chin which she kisses before looking back at me again.

“How’s that?” she asks, breathing heavily. I can’t believe she even has to ask that.

I grin up at her and cup her face with my hand. “You can’t do anything wrong, B,” I whisper. Her eyes close as I move my hand around just a bit, lightly rubbing her cheek.

She puts her lips to my ear. “What do I want me to do?”

I have to think for a second before I answer. I don’t know if there’s a right answer to this question but I figure she wouldn’t be here if she didn’t want to. “Buffy,” I moan out a little into the room as she lets her right hand rest on my breast, “I want you to make love to me.”

Her breath hitches a little at that. I think she figured I would use ‘fuck’ instead of ‘make love’. Hell, I’ve never used those words before. I’ve always just been in this situation to get off but she’s more than just a fuck to me. I hope she’s figured that out by now.

My words must have spurned her on though; she rubs her hand against my breast more roughly. B starts to suck on my neck and she starting to use both her hands more to feel me up. I’m loving every second of it.

This only lasts a few moments before I feel her pull away from me. I want to keep her close to me but I let her sit up, curious about what she’s doing. She moves off to my side and props herself up slightly, her eyes looking me up and down.

I smile as her hands move up and down my body slowly. She’s touching me with only the tips of her fingers, running them down my legs and stopping at my feet. Her hands rubs my feet and I grin at her. She’s making me feel so amazing and we haven’t even gotten to the really good part yet.

B leans down and places light kisses on my feet, my legs, slowly moving up my body. She moves past my center and kisses my stomach, one hand rubbing my side. She moves to my breasts and hesitates a little. Looking up at me, she gives me a questioning glance.

I smile and nod and then lose all other thought process.

She slowly lowers her head and starts to kiss, and even lick a little, around my breast. Just when I think she’s not gonna go any further, I feel her lips surround my nipple and take it into her mouth.

“Oh, that’s it,” I moan out quietly as she licks my nipple lightly before starting to suck on it. I put my hands on her again, moving them around on her upper back and massaging her shoulders. She gets bolder and sucks harder. I can feel her teeth graze against me every once and awhile and her hand starts to play with my other nipple, rolling it with her fingers.

She’s giving me this amazing feeling right now but her mouth leaves me. My eyes are closed but when I don’t feel her on me, they pop open. She’s staring at me with wide eyes and her pupils are huge. I can’t take it anymore and grab the back of her head, pulling her down to me and crashing our lips together.

Both of us moan into each other’s mouths as our tongues slide against each other. One of her hands is starting to snake it’s way in between our bodies as we start to move against each other a little.

Her hand rests on my stomach while we continue to kiss. She’s getting me all kinds of hot and her hand still hasn’t gone any lower. I run my hand through her hair as she licks down my neck and her hand inches closer to my center.

It seems like forever, but all of a sudden I feel her fingers reach my curls. I moan out quietly as she sucks on my neck and I’m assuming finding courage to take the next logical step here. I keep my hands on her sides, alternating between rubbing her there and caressing her breasts. Shit, she’s moaning as much as I am.

All of a sudden, B’s fingers find my clit and she starting rubbing it lightly. I cry out into the room and begin to arch into her body.

“Shit, baby,” I say as I turn my head into her. She’s licking my shoulder as she moves her body against me slightly faster. “B, kiss me.”

B lifts her head so she’s hovering above me and gives me the smallest of smiles before lowering her lips down to me. It’s the most incredible kiss ever as far as I’m concerned. Her tongue is exploring my entire mouth in a tender yet passionate way. I’m completely lost to it as she rubs my clit harder and I get even more wet.

“Buffy,” I moan out as we break our kiss and her forehead rests against mine, “put your fingers in me.”

There’s just one hint of nervousness that flashes across her face in a split second before her fingers move down to my entrance. I groan out in anticipation and grip B’s back tighter. Her fingers lightly touch around my hole, trying to feel out the territory I guess. She goes back to sucking on my neck when I feel her finger slowly enter me.

I have never had a feeling like this before. She moves her finger around in me slightly before slowly starting to move in and out. My hands grip her back as I moan out loudly. B begins to lick up my neck to my ear where she starts whispering in my ear.

“Is this good, baby?” she whispers as she kisses my ear.

“Oh... so good,” is all I can respond. I’m too distracted by the fact she has her finger in me and is starting to move in and out, making my brain just shut down.

B’s body is starting to move against mine as I start to respond to her touches. She’s resting most of her weight on me, but I couldn’t be bothered by it at all. I just can’t believe she’s actually fucking me.

Before I even realize it, she slides a second finger in me and pumps into me a little faster. I cry out into the room and dig my nails into her back. I spread my legs further apart and her fingers immediately go deeper.

“Fuck! Oh... that’s it, baby...” I can barely form words outside of the moaning coming out of me with each thrust. Our bodies are moving together now and I’m holding onto her with everything I have.

Even though I want us to keep going, I feel myself getting closer. I can’t believe B’s gonna make me come and all over her hand no less. She moves her head above mine and looks down at me. Her eyes are glowing and I can’t read her face at all. I guess I don’t want to get my hopes up.

B leans down and kisses me fiercely, pushing her tongue into my mouth and sliding her tongue against mine. Her fingers move faster and she curls her fingers just enough to make me cry out.

“Shit! Oh, God, B... I’m so close...” I groan out as I dig my nails into her back. My hips move against her hand faster as her palm presses against my clit. She’s leaving wet trails up and down my neck as we move together.

All at once, she drives her curled fingers deeply into me and I get the biggest orgasm I have ever had.

“Buffy! Oh, fuck me!” I scream out as I grip her tightly. She keeps her fingers moving in and out as I tremble under her. She sucks on my neck as she draws my orgasm out as long as she can. After what seems like forever, I feel myself starting to come down. My body arches into her one last time before I collapse on the bed.

She rests on me, holding me as I try to catch my breath. Her face is buried into my neck, gently placing soft kisses as I come down. After a few minutes, I finally think I’m ready to form words.

“Buffy, that was incredible,” I whisper into her ear. I bring a hand up to her head and run my fingers through her hair. I think I’m in love. I know I don’t want her to leave.

She moves to look at me. “Yeah?”

“Oh, yeah,” I grin and pull her head down so I can kiss her. It’s such a tender kiss and I think I’m ready for more.

She breaks the kiss and settles down, resting her head on my chest again. I rub her back lightly as we lay there, coming down from the most incredible sex I’ve ever had. I hope she feels the same way.

We’re just resting there and I’m so comfortable I start to drift off. I’m almost sleep when her voice brings me back.

“Faith?” she says, questioning me. She keeps her head down, her fingers tracing patterns on my skin.

“Yeah, B?”

“I, um... I... do you want me to go back to my room?” She sounds real unsure of herself.

“Why would I want you to leave?” I ask her. I think I know where this is going, but I refuse to lead this conversation.

“Well, I don’t know... I’ve never known you to be the stick around type,” she says tensely. “To be honest, I really haven’t been lately, either.”

Oh, shit. The only thing going through my head right now is whether or not she wants to leave and is looking for a way out. You know, trying to make it seem like I want her to leave.

“Do you want to leave, B?” I ask, pushing her head up so she has to look at me.

She smiles. “Not really. I just thought you’d want me to go back to my room so we could get some sleep.”

“Well,” I start, kissing her forehead, “I was thinking you could check out of your room in the morning and this could be your room.” I pause. “That way you wouldn’t have to find an excuse to leave.” I grin widely.

Buffy laughs and swats my arm. “I wasn’t trying for an excuse, Faith. I just don’t know what you were expecting.”

“I’m expecting us to have a lot more hot, sweaty sex,” I waggle my eyebrows at her. She moves off to my side and snuggles against me.

“Not tonight though, baby. You torn me out,” she giggles and sighs. I roll on my side to face her and hug her to me.

“We’ll have to get you some stamina training,” I say to her. I keep my arms wrapped around her and she buries her face in my neck. I can feel her warm breath against my skin and I don’t ever want it to leave. “Night, B.”

“Good night.”

******

Before I even realize it, morning’s here and I’m waking up with someone next to me. I tense for a micro-second before I remember who it is. I open my eyes to find Buffy looking intently at me. Her hand is drifting up and down my side.

“Good morning, baby,” she whispers softy and leans in, kissing me lightly on the lips. I think I’m dead because I don’t think I deserve this.

“Hmm, morning,” I stretch a little and smile as she checks me out. “I don’t think I’ve slept that good in a long time. And last night... wicked awesome.”

She giggles and I hug her to me. We kiss softly for a minute before she breaks away. We rest our foreheads together and just look at each other.

“What will we tell the gang?” she asks quietly.

I don’t really know what to say so I ease into it. “I’m pretty sure everyone on this floor knows, B,” I laugh. “I mean, we were kinda loud.”

B blushes and buries her face in my shoulder. “I forgot about that,” she mumbles into me. I can feel her breath on my shoulder and it’s really turning me on. I shrug it off and try my hardest to just pay attention to her.

“Baby,” I whisper into her ear, “don’t worry about it. It doesn’t matter what they think.” I pause. “I don’t care what they think, but I’ll go with whatever you do. As long as I still get to have sex with you, anyway. There’s no way I’m giving that up.”

She giggles against me and I hope I’ve eased her tension a little. I hug her and lie on my back, bringing her with me. I kiss the top of her head and wait for her to say something.

Buffy sighs. “I guess we’ll tell them the truth. I mean, we’re together, right? I don’t want to mess that up.”

“You won’t,” I respond. I’m not gonna tell her I’d stay with her no matter what. Too needy for me.

She lifts her head up and looks down at me. Her eyes are still glowing and I still can’t read her. It used to be so easy but now, everything’s changed.

“So,” she suddenly grins, “I should get up... and check out of my room.”

I laugh and pull her down to kiss her. She puts her hands in my hair as our tongues slide against each other. We pull apart after a minute and just look at each other. Our eyes only leave each other when we hear knocking.

“Faith!” Dawn yells through the door. “Tell Buffy she needs to get off you and get up for the day! Giles wants to talk to both of you.”

I grin up at B and yell back to her sister. “Dawn, how do you know I’m not ravaging your sister at this very moment?”

“Eww!” Dawn screeches through the door and we hear her run off. B laughs and buries her face in my neck.
