Buffyverse1000 Angel/Faith
::is very bad person::
Okay, so I did read one chapter. Then I wrapped Christmas presents. Then I had dinner. Then I kind of watched "Desperate Housewives" to see what all the fuss was about.
Then I saw
doyle_sb4 post about the buffyverse1000 master list and thought, "Hey! That doesn't sound like studying!"
So I went and wrote an Angel/Faith double drabble for
tinpanalley .
But NOW I am definitely getting off the computer.
And by "now," I mean, "pretty soon."
ETA: Whoops, meant to paste it in. It's behind the cut now.
Second
It hasn’t happened yet.
Faith keeps waiting and waiting, but he hasn’t done it. Yet.
With every smile Angel offers, every stroke of his hand through her hair, every shuddering release, there’s a place reserved in her mind preparing for him to say Her name.
And she won’t blame him; she won’t. She knows what they had, how much he misses her. She knows she’s the second Chosen one. So she won’t blame him. She’ll kick his ass, but she won’t blame him.
And it’d be easier if he’d get it over with already, but he hasn’t done it.
Faith continues to puzzle, staring at his unmoving back in the moonlight until he twitches and rolls over. She glances up to make sure his eyes are closed, then drops a furtive kiss onto his chest.
He half-smiles sleepily at that and murmurs “Faith.”
She waits, but he’s still asleep. Finally, she slides over and tucks herself up next to him. Faith does not do cuddling, but he’s probably cold, what with the being a vampire and all. She might as well spend the night for once.
As she falls asleep, she swears she feels a hand brushing over her hair.
