Feedback: Yes please :)



It's amazing how life can be. I never thought that I would be here in
South America, separated from my friends. Once the Hellmouth had
closed we all went our separate ways. Xander went to Africa, Buffy
and Dawn went to Rome, and Giles went back home. Kennedy convinced me
to go to South America. I have no idea why she wanted to go here, but
there were Slayers that were needed our guidance too. So I left the
safety of my friends and took one of the biggest risks of my life.
Now I am waiting for her to come home, after she's trained the new
Slayers. To me there's only ever going to be one Slayer, and her name
is Buffy. Perhaps I settled for second best by going with Kennedy.
There's a knock on the door, and I answer it, and Buffy
bursts in with several suitcases and the joy at seeing my best friend
makes me speechless. I look at her as she comes in and closes the
door. I raise my eyebrows as she drops her suitcases and ushers me to
the living room of the small apartment Kennedy and I live in.
She pushes me down onto the couch and plops down beside me. I
am too afraid to speak now; for fear that it will ruin the spell.
Buffy is here in South America, sitting beside me. She grabs my hand
and sighs; she lifts it to her mouth and kisses it.
"I should never have let you leave."
"I suppose you want to go get Xander too."
"Nah, Faith told me to quit being scared and admit how I feel for
you."
Again I am speechless as she pulls me into her arms and cuddles me. I
don't want to move, and I don't want to say a word. I know Kennedy's
going to be home soon, but I don't care. I am where I always wanted
to be, in Buffy's warm arms, cuddling with her.
