Eclectic Muses Topic for March, "Home."
//Locked from Angel.//
It took forever to find her, but there she was, under our noses the whole soddin’ time. Never once did I think that Sophia would be back and never once did I think that she’d stick around for long. Maybe it was only a matter of time for the tart to come back, stirrin’ up a mixin’ pot of garbage and takin’ what was hers. My old teachings finally sunk in it seemed, only this time, she used them against me. Got me back she did, what with me always bein’ with Dru and leavin’ her behind. Bad Daddy I was, but now it was all changed. She thought she was in charge, I was only bidin’ my time, waitin’ for my moment. Maybe I’d make her scream for fun or I’d just get it over with - just for fun. Not that I didn’t mind sharin’. Connor an’ I had been sharin’ Faith and sharin’ eachother for months now. Goin’ from town to town, stealin’ and boozin’ and everything else that we could do to pass the time, all of this only to get as far as possible from LA without actually bein’ far from it. Odd that is, don’t’ much know why we didn’t just leave this bloody continent. Nothin’ but misfortune and pointin’ fingers and over there, Angel wouldn’t be around, sniffin’ down our scent and kickin’ us down when we were already as far in the ground as we could go.
LA wasn’t our home anymore.
I watch her closely, first my concern was with Faith, but now, Faith was the last one my mind. It was all about Sophia, as it should have been decades ago. I could see part of myself in her, hell, I could see Angelus in her as well, makin’ every part of my body ache, my soul wantin’ to betray me as it has been for months. In the back of my head, I know this isn’t where we needed to be, but this was where I wanted to be. With them. There was no turnin’ back and Sophia could have Faith all she wanted, s’long as I had her. Funny it is, the one thing you push away is the one thing you ache for. This was my home now, with her, with them.
Causin’ pain, earnin’ pain and makin’ the world burn.
