Ficlets
Challenge: Stolen from lostnfoundcause
1. Pick a character, pairing, or fandom you like.
2. Turn your music player on and turn it on random/shuffle.
3. Write a drabble/ficlet related to each song that plays. You only have the time frame of the song to finish the drabble; you start when the song starts, and stop when it’s over. No lingering afterwards!
4. Do ten of these, then post them. (I only have five)
Pairing: Faith/Buffy
1) It's Only Me -The Barenaked Ladies
Faith looked coyly over at Buffy. She looked so focused on the book, reading up on the demon of the week.
A strand of hair fell from behind her ear, without pausing for thought Faith reached over to re-secure the blonde whispy hair. Their eyes met.
2) White Collar Boy -Belle and Sebastian
So.. um, do you want to maybe..?
Sorry, what was that B?
Well, I, uh... Don't you just love this song?
Well actually, it's pretty lame..." Faith said instantly biting her tongue. "You know, actually I love it."
"Really?"
Of course, come on. Dance with me.
They made their way to the floor, Faith pulling Buffy behind her.
Stopping in the middle of the sparcley populared dance floor they dropped hands, standing awkwardly across from each other as the song came to an end.
3) Overture/All That Jazz -Chicago Soundtrack
They were enjoying the show of their life, both throwing their heads back in laugher every few minutes.
"Ahh! Did you see that!" Buffy screamed excitedly grabbing Faith's hand.
"I know!! I can't believe they did that!" she said as she bursted into laughter again grasping Buffy's hand tightly.
The performance came to a close and the performers shifted off the stage as they both laughed to a point of tears.
Left in a settling silence they both realized that they were grasping eachother's hands for dear life. Neither loosened their grip.
Faith leaned over and caught the blonde's lips before the moment could escape them.
The passion filled them like the laughter had before, fully and triumphantly.
They pulled away slowly.
"This has been the best night of my life." She whispered, as she moved forward to claim the lips once more.
4) Home -Three Days Grace
She ran, the rain and branches whipping her face as she ran. She could hear the voices echoing in the dark. The sinister laughter. Her muscled burned and her blood pumped loud in her ears. She burst out of the trees and into the park. The park was so quiet, so serene. It was like a ghost, the remnants of day, of happy children on the swings, of couples on the bench. The tears came anew as she took off again, forcing her muscles not to give out, just to pull her a little farther. Closer to what she knew. Closer to her home. Closer to Her.
5) Why Can't I -Liz Phair
Holding hands, they were strolling down the street, it had been a beautiful day and dust was shaping the horizon with exquisite colors.
"You know what we haven't done for a long time?"
"No.." she replied with a quirking smile, "What?"
Buffy pulled then to a halt. "This"
Buffy raised her hands, tracing Faith's cheekbones, drawing small circles down her neck. She drew their faces close, brushing her lips against Faith's. A soft moan escaped Faith's lips.
