Buffy tried to straighten herself out and stop feeling quite so flushed. She was glad she had been able to prevent Faith from leaving, but now she was hot for the girl more than ever. She knew she couldn’t hold out much longer; she was burning with need.

“Um, I’m tired,” Buffy said abruptly. “I think we. . .I mean I should go to bed. Will, you can sleep on the couch.” Buffy didn’t give her red haired friend time to protest as she grabbed Faith by the hand and led her up the stairs. “I’ll bring you down some sheets and stuff.”

“Ok,” Willow said with a hiccup and slumped down onto the couch.

Buffy pulled Faith into her bedroom and rushed back out of the door. She gathered some things out of the linen cupboard for Willow and took them downstairs. She found her already dozing so covered her,and turned the lights off.

She paused at the bottom of the stairs, looking up towards the landing. She was still nervous. Hell, she was terrified. She had faced vamps, demons and death, but this was something entirely new. She had never felt longing and need like this before - it was intense.

But she was beyond trying to keep her feelings under control now. It was doing her no good, and in some ways it was being detrimental to her budding friendship with Faith. The alcohol in her body was ebbing away now - probably due to the adrenaline rushing through her - leaving Buffy more aware. As she walked slowly back up the stairs she was sure that this was the right thing to do. It didn’t stop her feeling so scared, though.

Buffy tentatively opened the door to her room. Faith was lying on her back in the middle of the bed. Her boots had been kicked off and left scattered by the desk. Buffy bit her lip, feeling her heart skip a beat as she took in the sight of Faith lying in wait for her.

“You gonna get over here, or stand there all night?”

Buffy jumped a little at the sound of the younger girl’s sultry voice.

Faith shifted on the bed and lay on her side, making room for Buffy. She had one hell of a sexy smile on her lips and Buffy almost melted right then and there. She removed her shoes and climbed up onto the bed. The resolve she had felt earlier had dissipated somewhat due to extreme nervousness and the fact that Faith was actually here, on her bed and not just in her fantasies.

“You ok, B?” Faith was resting on her elbow, looking deep into Buffy’s eyes.

“Yeah, just you know. . .freaking out here.”

It was true, as much as she wanted this it was still something entirely new to Buffy.

“Look, Buffy. You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to,” Faith said softly. “I really like you. I’m attracted to you, and yeah. . .I’d like nothing more than to. . .well, get you naked for a start. But I’m not about to let you do something you’re gonna regret. I know you and Angel. . .yunno, did it, but I don’t want to push you or go too fast.”

Buffy was taken aback by Faith’s little speech.

The Faith she knew - or thought she knew - wouldn’t be attempting to actually back down at the opportunity for sex. Buffy realised there was so much more to Faith than met the eye. Sure, she was drop dead gorgeous. She was flirty, wild and extremely sexual. But there was so much depth to the younger slayer and Buffy wanted more than anything to plumb those depths. She wanted to know everything about Faith, good and bad.

'God, I don’t just want to have sex with her. I want. . .I want to be her girlfriend or something,' Buffy thought to herself.

“Faith, about Angel,” Buffy began.

Faith’s eyes clouded over at the mention of Buffy’s boyfriend.

Buffy knew she should put Faith’s mind at little at ease as far as the Angel issue was concerned. Just from the downcast look now on Faith's face Buffy knew she was jealous, and also upset at the mention of his name.

“The thing is, Faith, I’m not really with Angel any more. I mean. It’s not official yet. But it’s over,” Buffy clarified.

Faith’s eyes brightened at that little piece of information. “I can’t say I’m not happy about that, B. I wanted to be with you so much it kinda hurt to see you with him all the time.”

* * *

Faith was waiting now for some kind of reaction to what she had said to Buffy regarding not wanting to push her. She was kicking herself for giving Buffy a chance to back out, but she really didn’t want to blow things with her - especially since now it seemed Angel wasn’t a factor.

She was so happy about that. He had always been in the way, effectively giving the two girls no real time together. She had been so jealous of their relationship, of how he got to touch Buffy and kiss her whenever he liked. It really didn’t help that he was a vampire too.

“Hey, beautiful. You in there?” Faith asked, grinning a little.

Buffy had on her 'spaced out' expression again; as cute as it was Faith really wanted to know what was going to happen next.

“Sorry, I was just. . .Faith?”

“Yeah?”

'Fuck, she’s so attractive when she’s all nervous,' Faith mused.

Faith smiled down at Buffy, trying her best not to just lean towards her and kiss her. She didn’t want to push too quickly; she knew she was going to have to leave it up to Buffy to decide the outcome of this night.

“I was. . .just wondering. I mean, I don’t want to pressure you or anything and I’m pretty sure I’d do it any way right now, but I’m. . .I don’t know, it's just that. . .”

“B, you’re making no sense to me right now whatsoever.” Faith was doing her best to stifle the laugh that wanted nothing more than to escape. She had seen Buffy flustered before, but this was just too sweet.

“Sorry, you must think I’m like, totally naïve and here on a trip from moron land. I know you’re not exactly the ‘stick around ‘till morning’ type, but. . .” Buffy looked down at her hands that were busy fiddling with the pink bed sheet.

“B?” Faith said gently.

Buffy raised her eyes, and looked up through her long lashes at Faith.

'Damn, I love it when she looks at me like that,' Faith's inner-voice chimed in.

“Are you trying to ask me if I’m just gonna fuck you and leave?” she asked finally.

She couldn’t really blame Buffy for thinking that; it was after all exactly what she normally did.

“I guess,” Buffy admitted coyly.

Faith let out a sigh.

She hated that Buffy thought she would do that to her. But then again, she realised that Buffy had no reason to believe otherwise. She had to let Buffy know she didn’t intend to do such a thing to her.

Faith sat up on the bed and looked down at the smaller slayer. She had to do this right - get the words out right - or her chance with Buffy would have come and gone already. She wasn’t good with words, though. At least not with words that conveyed feelings, or anything other than flirting or profanity.

Before she could think of the best way to express herself, something Buffy had said suddenly registered with her. Turning to face Buffy more fully, a knowing grin spread across her face.

“Wait a minute, did I hear you right? You said you’d have sex with me any way didn’t ya? Regardless of whether it would just be screwing and scramming or not,” Faith said. Buffy couldn’t fight back the tell tale smile taking possession of her lips. “I knew it. Hussy!” Faith joked. She just couldn’t resist the urge to tease the girl lying next to her.

“Hey, is it my fault you’re so fucking irresistible?” Buffy whined.

Faith's knowing-grin turned to goofy-grin upon hearing Buffy say that about her. And she laughed at how serious Buffy looked after revealing just what she really thought about her.

Then Buffy giggled a little alongside her, breaking the tension - sexual and otherwise - that had built up between them. Faith realised she still had to put the blonde girl’s mind at ease, and let her know she didn’t want this just to be a one night stand.

At first, when Faith had began lusting after Buffy, that was all she really did want. But now - after getting to know her - she wanted more than that. She didn’t know what it was Buffy wanted for sure, but knowing the girl now, she was pretty certain that she would never just have sex with someone for the hell of it - regardless of her earlier comment. That was something she did, not Buffy.

“B. . .Buffy, I’m not too good at things like this but. . .” Faith took hold of one of Buffy’s hands, ensuring she had her full attention. “I want this to be more than just a one night stand. If you don’t feel the same then ok - just tell me to shut up and I’ll sleep with you anyway. I mean, I’m not totally dumb. I’ve wanted you for a long time now so. . .”

“Faith?”

“Yeah?”

“Shut up and kiss me.”

Faith didn’t need to be asked twice.

She lowered herself back down - leaning over Buffy - and softly brought their lips together.

* * *

Buffy had heard exactly what she wanted to know. Faith wanted this to be more than just an inebriated screw. She didn’t just want her to be another notch on her bedpost. Buffy had been able to see as much in Faith's alluring eyes; she had been telling the truth. Either that or she was an even better liar than Buffy gave her credit for.

Right now with Faith resting gently on top of her - or partially at least - and being kissed so softly by her, she didn’t really care. She wanted this, had been dreaming about it almost constantly, and now it was actually happening. She didn’t care about anything other than how good Faith was making her feel. If that made her a bad person, so be it. . .she couldn’t stop now.

Buffy was being taken over by the intense pleasure washing over her. They were kissing less hesitantly now, the need for more of each other outweighing any hope of taking their time. They were truly losing themselves in each other. Faith’s tongue was twisting round Buffy’s in a passionate dance, tasting and teasing.

Faith ran her right hand down to Buffy’s thigh, leaving a trail of fire in its wake. She lifted her leg slightly as she placed herself between Buffy’s thighs; never once breaking the kiss they were indulging in.

Buffy couldn’t help but let out a groan as she felt the weight of the other girl between her strong legs. She could feel her own wetness soaking her panties now. She was unbelievably turned on by Faith as she was an incredible kisser. And the fact that Faith’s deliciously hot body was pressed up against her was sending her senses haywire.

She wrapped her arms around Faith’s back, tangling her fingers into soft dark hair; heightening the intensity of their kissing even more than she thought possible. And just when she thought things couldn’t get her any hotter, Faith moved her soft lips down to her throat. Faith left a wet trail down her neck, nipping and sucking gently at various points, causing Buffy to moan for her. Faith stopped when she reached the strappy top Buffy was wearing.

“B? I want to feel you, and I want to see you. I want you naked.” Faith’s voice was practically dripping in sexy huskiness.

There was no way on this earth that Buffy was going to be able to refuse the younger slayer now. She smiled up at Faith, licking her lips at the prospect of divesting the dark beauty of her clothes too.

'I’m gonna love finally getting to see that gorgeous body,' her inner-voice noted.

Buffy raised herself slightly in order to give Faith exactly what she wanted. Faith moved from between her legs, pure desire darkening her eyes as she watched Buffy begin to remove her clothing.

“Wait, let me,” Faith instructed.

Buffy closed her eyes as waves of desire rolled up her spine from just the sound of Faith’s sultry command.

Faith kissed Buffy gently on the mouth before moving to lift off her top. She slowly pulled the fabric up over Buffy’s breasts, obviously savouring the revelation of the older girl’s toned body. Buffy lifted her arms as Faith removed the small top entirely.

Faith ran a finger down over one of Buffy’s still covered breasts, and over her taut stomach. She bent forward and kissed just above her belly button, then kissed her way slowly up, avoiding Buffy’s aching nipples. She lifted her head and looked deep into Buffy’s eyes before sliding her right hand round to undo the bra Buffy was wearing, easily unclasping it and discarding it.

Then Buffy forgot how to breathe as Faith’s fingers connected with her left breast. Buffy was just about getting to grips with that when Faith lowered her mouth to her other exposed breast, and gently sucked the firm nipple in between her soft lips.

“Fuck, Faith. . .take your clothes off. I want you,” Buffy gasped.

* * *

“Damn, B. I’m so fucking hot for you, I don’t know where to start,” Faith admitted.

She had never felt like this with anyone else.

Her previous conquests were solely about a quick release. Nothing more to it than getting what she wanted, and getting the hell away. This was an entirely different kettle of fish. She wanted Buffy so much, it almost went beyond sex altogether.

“Well, I think. . .if you don’t get naked with me right now, Faith, I’m gonna explode or something,” Buffy giggled.

Faith quickly stripped her own top and bra off, no longer thinking going slow was such a good idea. She really didn’t think either one of them would survive it. Buffy watched practically open-mouthed as the rest of the brunette’s clothes followed suit. She grinned wickedly up at Buffy as she tugged at her trousers, bringing them down along with her underwear and tossing them to the floor on the pile of her own clothes. They were both in all their glory now. Unable to keep their eyes off each other.

“Faith, you’re gorgeous. I mean. . .come here,” Buffy stuttered.

Faith eased the full length of her body down onto Buffy, causing both of them to groan at the intimate contact. Shifting slightly, Faith once again rested herself between Buffy’s thighs; only this time there was nothing between them, no barriers.

Faith kissed Buffy with abandon; it was passionate, intense and effortless, and hard and soft all at the same time. They were both pushing against each other now, getting as much contact between their bodies as they possibly could.

Faith couldn’t hold herself back and began rocking her hips into Buffy, causing her dripping sex to spread over the blonde girl’s own wetness. She could feel how aroused Buffy was - she could smell it. It was filling her lungs and she loved it. She knew right then that she would never be able to get enough of this girl. They were just going to have to have sex constantly.

They were moving in unison now, rhythmically pushing against each other. Buffy was moaning softly as Faith lowered her head to her breasts. She gently licked and sucked on Buffy’s nipples, enjoying every second of it.

“Faith, I need you. . .to touch me,” Buffy sighed, her breathing growing evermore erratic.

Faith smiled up at the delicious blonde. She wanted to taste just how delicious she was. She kissed Buffy one last time on the mouth before trailing her lips and tongue down her responsive body. She dipped her tongue into Buffy’s belly button eliciting a moan from the older girl.

She continued her slow descent down between Buffy’s legs, kissing along the inside of her thighs.

“God, Faith,” Buffy moaned.

Faith decided not to make Buffy wait any longer. If truth be told she couldn’t wait any longer herself; she had to taste Buffy.

Buffy’s inner thighs were glistening already with her wetness and Faith made a point of licking her way up to Buffy’s centre. She blew gently over her clit, causing Buffy to raise her hips ever so slightly off the bed. Faith pushed Buffy’s thighs apart gently, giving her better access., then she ran the tip of her tongue softly over her wet pussy.

* * *

“Oh, Faith!” Buffy gasped loudly.

She couldn’t quite believe the sexy brunette was actually between her legs - lapping at her wet need - but it felt so good.

Faith gradually increased the pressure as she ran her tongue over and around Buffy’s clit, pleasuring her beyond her wildest dreams. Angel had certainly never done this to her before. She was glad it was Faith doing it now though; she wouldn’t want it any other way. Buffy groaned loudly as Faith pushed into her dripping hole, thrusting her tongue in as far as it would go and rhythmically fucking Buffy with it.

Buffy was moving with Faith now, groaning aloud at every thrust. She reached down with one hand, clutching at dark hair. Her other hand grabbed on to the headboard as she felt herself granting total control to Faith. She was lost in the pleasure Faith was giving her.

The brunette licked her way back to Buffy’s clit and pulled at it gently between her teeth. She alternately sucked on it then flicked it with her tongue. Buffy’s moans were getting louder now, and it just seemed to drive Faith on.

Buffy was getting close, she had thought about this moment with Faith so many times, but the reality was so much better than she could have thought possible.

Sensing that Buffy was near to climax Faith increased her attention on her clit, going faster and harder. Just as Buffy thought she couldn’t take any more, Faith pushed two fingers deep inside her.

“Oh, God. . .Oh, fuck. . .Oh, Faith!” Buffy gasped with each thrust.

Faith moaned into Buffy’s wet pussy as she expertly fucked her. Buffy was writhing against her now, crying out in pleasure. She tried to hang on, not wanting it to be over too soon, but she had no hope.

“Oh, oh, oh fuck, Faith.” Buffy suddenly tensed up as she felt the explosive orgasm rip through her.

She shook as she felt Faith licking away her hot juices, grazing her clit as she did so. She knew that if Faith didn’t stop she would come again. Faith didn’t stop; she replaced her fingers with her tongue, ramming it into Buffy with abandon as her thumb danced over her sensitive clit.

“Fuck!” Buffy screamed out. “That feels so. . .oh! Oh! Faith!” She came all over Faith for the second time, drenching her lips and face.

* * *

Faith just couldn’t find it in her to leave Buffy’s dripping wet sex. She wanted to keep her tongue buried in her; it just felt so fucking hot. But Buffy was pulling at her, forcing her to raise her head. Faith reluctantly made her way back up Buffy’s body, kissing various points as she went.

Buffy was fighting to get her breath back, little tremors still coursing through her body. Faith rested to the side of her, her leg thrown possessively over her. She rested her head on Buffy’s shoulder, waiting for the other girl to come back to her.

“God, Faith. That was. . .fucking amazing.”

Faith lifted her head, smiling at the beautiful blonde beneath her.

“You’re pretty amazing yourself,” Faith pointed out.

Buffy pulled her down into a searing kiss.

They pulled apart, both knowing what they felt for each other in that kiss - love. The two slayers looked deep into each other’s eyes. They didn’t need to say anything - at least not yet - but they both felt it, and they could both see it.

Buffy tenderly caressed Faith’s cheek with her hand, causing her to close her eyes. This had turned into so much more than just sex. They both knew they were making love. Faith turned her lips to Buffy’s palm and kissed her there. Then she bent down the short distance and captured the blonde girl’s lips with her own.

The tenderness of the kiss soon turned to passion as the heat between them began to rise again. Buffy pushed Faith over, bringing herself on top of her. Her left leg rested between Faith’s thighs, and she pushed up with it, coating it in Faith’s wetness. Faith almost instantly began rubbing herself on Buffy, feeling the power and strength between her legs.

“Faith, do you have any idea how fucking sexy you are?” Buffy said breathlessly.

Faith just whimpered as Buffy pushed up a little harder. She knew it wasn’t going to take much - having been so turned on when she was going down on Buffy.

Faith wrapped her arms around the smaller girl, scratching her back slightly as she ran her hands over it. Buffy began raining kisses over her chest and sucking on her nipples as her left hand slowly made its way over Faith’s toned stomach. Faith was panting now with need.

Buffy eased her thigh away from Faith, causing her to open her eyes in protest. She caught the satisfied smile on Buffy’s face as gentle fingers spread her wet pussy open.

Faith cried out at the contact of Buffy’s fingers on her clit. She pushed up into her hand, feeling the fingers slipping over her and taking her to the edge.

“Fuck, B. Fucking yeah. . .oh yeah,” Faith sighed huskily.

Buffy flicked her clit, teasing it then sliding against it harder and faster than before. Then she slipped two fingers down and entered Faith, pushing up into her, stroking her inside, driving her fingers in and out. Faith began actually whimpering for Buffy.

She was getting closer now with each thrust, her hips bucking off the bed into Buffy’s hand. Moaning into the night.

“B. . .Fuck. . .clit. . .”

Buffy brought her other hand between them and coated her fingers in Faith’s flowing wetness before sliding them over her clit. She fucked Faith with both her hands, two fingers buried deep inside her while she rubbed on her swollen clit with the fingers of other hand.

“God, yes. Oh yeah, fuck me, Buffy. . .Fuck! . .Yes!”

Faith came even louder than Buffy had, her body arching off the bed as the blonde slayer pressed her fingers to Faith’s G-spot, drawing out her orgasm as much as she could.

Buffy slowly removed her fingers and rested her body down on top of Faith, and Faith wrapped her arms around her, practically crushing Buffy to her before eventually releasing her a little.

They lay like that for some time, just revelling in the feeling of being so close. The smell of sex filling their nostrils; each other’s scent pulsing inside them. Buffy was softly kissing around Faith’s ear and down her neck. Faith had never had this before; she was usually up and out of the door by now. But it felt so good in Buffy’s embrace, just holding onto the intensity of it all.

* * *

Buffy lifted herself off Faith slightly in order to pull the blanket up around them. She had never felt so contented before. It was just perfect. All of it.

Faith grumbled as Buffy shifted.

“Just covering us up, gorgeous,” Buffy said soothingly.

“You’re incredible you know?” Faith stated dreamily.

Buffy couldn’t help but blush a little. She had never expected to be able to make Faith come. She had never done anything like that before.

“Did I do ok?” Buffy asked.

Faith gave her a quizzical look. “Did you not hear me, B?”

It would be a miracle if most of the street hadn’t heard her.

Faith snuggled Buffy into her arms and kissed her gently. They were wrapped around each other basking in the afterglow. Buffy looked intently at Faith, wondering what was going on in her head right now as the brunette relaxed with a soft smile playing on her lips.

“Faith, what are you thinking?”

“I’m thinking that I’m in love with you, Buffy,” Faith said in a quiet voice.

She seemed to tense up, waiting for a rebuff maybe.

Buffy couldn’t quite believe her ears; she had wanted the beautiful slayer to say that to her so much. A silver tear slipped from her eye as she brought her lips to Faith’s, kissing her lightly before pulling back.

“Look at me, Faith.”

It was apparent that Faith just didn’t know what Buffy would say about her confession. As she looked into Faith’s dark brown eyes, Buffy could see how apprehensive she was. Buffy wanted nothing more than to bring back that dazzling smile she loved.

“Faith, I’m in love with you too,” she confessed.

Faith sighed happily before pulling Buffy into a breathtaking kiss. The dazzling smile was back, and it joined Buffy’s in lighting up the room.

* * *

The two slayers snuggled back down into the covers, and each other. It wasn’t long before Buffy had drifted off to sleep; a mixture of alcohol and intense sex taking its toll on her. Faith just hoped this whole thing wasn’t a result of the alcohol.

But then Buffy had told her she was in love with her. Plus, by the time they’d reached the bedroom earlier, most of the alcohol in both their systems had begun to dissipate; something to do with slayer metabolism and adrenaline.

This was the start of something beautiful, intense and passionate. Faith’s heart felt like it could burst; just explode into dust like some vamp or something. She shook her head at how sickening she was being. It was certainly new to her character, but she knew she would cope with it - for Buffy she would cope.

Faith couldn’t quite believe how perfect the night had turned out. It was like a dream she just didn’t want to wake up from. Buffy was in her arms. They had confessed to being in love with each other. It was perfect.

Or at least, it had been until. . .

“Buffy? Faith? Where are. . .oh. . .Oh!” Willow yelped as she pushed open the door.

Faith hid her head under the blanket wishing Willow not to be there. She peeked out. Nope, she was there all right - standing in the doorway looking so beyond shocked it was actually funny. Or at least it would have been if it didn’t mean a lot of explaining was going to be called for.

“Um, B?”
