PART 15: The Park...
Enya had noticed the Sunnydale High sweatshirt that Cordelia had around her waist that Cordelia had on. She thought she might as well start now since she was attending the school starting Monday.
Cordelia normally would have shoved her off and told her to go get a facial but she didn't care at the moment. That and Faith had changed her...Faith.
Enya had been telling Cordelia where she was from and everything. She actually could fit into Cordelia's group fine, if she acted right. Cordelia talked to her and told her about the school and her group and everything. Enya seemed more like Cordelia. She had a group of friends at her last school who did the same routine.
Enya was very nice, and knew all the best brands and styles. After a while of talking, Cordelia sighed and looked into the sky.
"Is there something bothering you?" Enya, who had blonde hair and blue eyes, asked.
Cordelia looked over at her questionably. Could she trust her? Should she tell her? Cordelia did want to talk to someone so bad about it for she had no one to talk to...but could she really? Enya noticed Cordelia's hesitation.
"Hey, whatever it is, it's ok. Trust me, I've heard it all. Nothing surprises me and whatever it is, won't effect how I see you. I promise. That is unless if you're some psychotic killer or something," Enya said. Cordelia laughed.
"Well...you see it's complicated..." Cordelia started. Enya turned on the bench.
"Try me," she replied. Cordelia sighed.
"Ok, but you asked for it...you see, there was this girl named Faith..."
The Summers' house...
Buffy and Faith sat downstairs in the living room on the couch watching TV. Buffy lay on the couch with her head in Faith's lab. Faith played with Buffy's hair admiring her beauty. Faith felt so lucky to be able to be there at that moment with Buffy.
Buffy looked away from the TV and up at Faith who was looking down at her. Faith smiled down at Buffy and continued to run her fingers through her hair. Buffy stared up at Faith admiring everything about her. Buffy reached her hand out and grasped Faith's entwining their fingers. Faith ran her thumb across the backside of Buffy's hand lovingly. Buffy smiled up at her and brought their hands towards her lips and softly kissed Faith's hand.
A snort could be heard in the hallway and bother girls glanced over there. Dawn stood in the middle of the hallway giggling while Buffy rolled her eyes and Faith smiled while shaking her head.
Dawn was just glad that the two girls found someone who cared about them. Faith and Buffy both needed it. But the one thing that Dawn couldn't get out of her mind was...what now? What would happen at school?
At the Park...
Cordelia sat quietly on the bench staring at her hands in her lap as she had just finished her story. Cordelia quickly looked up at Enya who just looked at her and shrugged.
"Well that sucks. So you want your girl back huh?" Enya asked looking serious. Cordelia was surprised.
"You mean you..." Cordelia started.
"Don't think it's weird that you like a girl? No. It's completely normal. You can't help who you like. It just happens. Unfortunately, some people don't know how to handle information and treat you differently when they find out. I'm not like that but I don't care if someone is," Enya explained. Cordelia gave her a weak smile.
"You miss her huh?" Enya asked. Cordelia looked up at her.
"Yeah...I wish..." Cordelia said then trailed off. Enya perked up a little bit.
"You wish what?" she asked. Cordelia looked back at her.
"It's stupid and selfish," Cordelia said throwing the twig she was playing with on the ground.
"Oh tell me what you were going to say." Enya pried. Cordelia gave her a weird look and sighed. Why did she care anyway?
"I wish something big and drastic would happen in their relationship...and that Faith would come back to me," Cordelia said looking down at her feet.
"Done," Enya had said. Cordelia quickly looked at her as a big flash of blinding light went across the sky.
"That was freaky," Cordelia managed to say after the flash. But when she looked to talk to Enya again...she was gone.
Later, at night...
Buffy told Faith they would meet up and patrol later. She had something she had to do. Buffy walked through the front door of the mansion. She took a breath and walked to the center. She unclenched her hand that had the ring in it and placed it on the ground.
"I guess this is my way of saying goodbye," Buffy said as she knelt down," I have found someone that I care about very much. And she loves me. And for once, I am indeed happy. I don't need to hold on to the memory of you any more. I love her...goodbye."
Buffy got up slowly and walked back out the door to meet Faith. After a few moments the ground began to shake and a burst of light went through the mansion as a naked and disturbed Angel hit the cool ground grunting and shaking.
