As she slowly woke up in her lover’s arms, she vowed that no matter what happened this time around she’d make things work out. Instead of running away, Tara decided that she’d stay and help Willow. She promised that she’d help instead of turning her back on her girl when she needed her like a coward. Willow murmured something in her sleep as she snuggled closer to Tara causing the blonde to sigh in contentment. She closed her eyes as she started to fall asleep again, there’d be time later in the morning to make promises but right now she just wanted to be with her girl.

“But you promised,” Drusilla pleaded.
“I know I did, but he wasn’t the one for you,” Darla explained as she ran her hand along Drusilla’s naked spine.
“He was supposed to be mine.”
“I know but he was hardly worthy, now quit pouting.”
“No.”
“Fine then,” Darla coldly replied as she slid out of the silk sheets, her generous mood ruined, “Find someone else, but do be careful since you know how jealous Spike gets.”
“Grandmother,” Drusilla began.
“Don’t call me that, Drusilla. I am only trying to help you but you seem determined to be rash. So go ahead, do what you want but don’t come crying to me when Spike stakes your new play toy.”
Title: Stolen

Prompt: #129 (promise)
Fandom: Buffy the Vampire Slayer/Supernatural crossover
Pairing: Faith/Ruby
Rating: FR13
Word Count: 152
A/N: Contains spoilers for S3 of SPN, set post-S7 (BTVS) and pre-S3 (SPN)
When Faith had first met Ruby, she hadn’t been looking for love. But the new Slayer had been persistent and eventually Faith had been forced to admit her feelings, which was dangerous territory for the brunette. A month of domestic bliss (or what passed as such for a pair of Slayers) was all that Faith had been granted before a demon had stolen Ruby away. She had woken in the early morning to an empty and cold bed and the heavy scent of sulpher in the air. It had left her angry and confused and all that Giles and Buffy could tell her was that an inactive Hellmouth had been breached. Apparently there was a war going on, one that Giles and Buffy had kept to themselves. Faith had slammed the phone down and promised that not only would she save Ruby from being causality but she’d take Giles and Buffy down.

Pairing: Jo/Bela

A/N: Contains spoilers for S3 of SPN, set after "Born Under a Bad Sign."
Jo knew from the start that she was bad news, she had heard enough about Bela from the hunters that would frequent the Roadhouse. What she hadn’t known was just how persuasive Bela could be, even when Jo had been determined to resist her. But somehow Bela had broken through her resolve and convinced her to help her out on a case. And then before she had left town with her prize, Bela had given Jo a smile, a vague promise to come back when she wasn’t on business, and a devastating kiss that had left Jo weak at the knees. And Jo was left to wonder why she was always attracted to the ones who were so bad for her; the ones that oozed charm despite their broken promises.
Title: Silken Promises
Author: aaronlisa
Prompt: #129 (promise)
Fandom: Twilight
Pairing: Alice/Bela
Rating: FR15
Word Count: 100
A/N: Set after the third book.
Whenever she’s alone with Alice, she forgets everything, even Edward and Jacob, except the soft promises that Alice makes as her hands glide along Bella’s skin. There’s no fear that Alice will be too rough with her fragile human body or that the vampire will lose control. Bella softly sighs as Alice’s mouth captures one of her nipples. With Alice, she doesn’t feel like she’s going to die if Alice doesn’t touch her. Instead she feels nothing but peace and contentment, and she often wishes that she had fallen under Alice’s spell instead of Edwards, it would have been safer.
