She Who Was My Love (girlxgirl) (Book 2)

From Bad to Worse

Author's Note: And you thought things couldn't get any worse. :)

Buffy's POV

"I just want to go back to not existing."

Oh my god what have we done?

I have no idea what to do next so I take a step forward, so does Faith.

"NO! Just LEAVE ME... ALONE!"

She turns and leaves, heading up the stairs.

"Dawn! Dawn please!"

I go after her but stop at the bottom of the stairs.

What the hell am I doing? She said to leave her alone and I'm just gonna go after her? I'd only make things worse.

I close my eyes as I feel like I'm going to cry. I feel Faith's gentle hand against mine and I look behind me. We just stare into each other's eyes for a second before I turn to her and wrap my arms around her mid-section, holding her close.

"What are we gonna do?"

"I don't know B. We really screwed up royally."

Mom comes up to us.

"I think maybe we just need to give her some time to deal with this."

"Yeah that'll work..."

I pull away from Faith and see Spike standing in the door holding his badly bandaged mid-section.

"What are you doing here Spike?"

He pulls his hand away from his side to reveal a bloody patch in his makeshift bandage.

"I just stopped by for a quick stabbing from your little psychotic there and then I'm off."

Dawn stabbed Spike?

Faith and I pull apart as we both wonder what Spike did.

"What did you do?"

"Me? I didn't do anything."

"Why do I find that so hard to believe?"

I find it hard to believe myself.

"It's the truth."

"Dawn wouldn't just stab someone for no reason, not even you Spike."

"Maybe not under normal circumstances, but since she did I'm guessing she's not using all her marbles."

"What do you know?"

"Nothing, I was just along for the ride..."

He looks at Faith and smiles.

"I have a history of that with you people."

What's that supposed to mean?

Faith walks up to him and shoves him against the edge of the door frame, making him groan with pain.

"Is that supposed to be funny?"

"Ow, god... I know you like it rough pet but I'm not exactly in perfect form at the moment."

"What are you talking about Spike?"

Faith hits Spike with a right cross.

"Shut up Spike..."

What the hell is going on?

Spike smiles at Faith and it's really starting to get creepy.
