[reviews]
Willow turned and looked at the door, quickly seeing that it was Amy who'd come through it. She was walking backwards and talking to someone. Buffy quickly went back to playing, letting Willow back off on her own. Willow for her part looked back at Buffy and made a silent vow to talk to the blonde about what had just happened.
"So, this is our cabin. It's probably the exact same as yours." Amy said to their new visitor as she ushered them into the room.
"Yeah, pretty much. Except that mine doesn't have two incredibly hot, no, scratch that, three incredibly hot females in it. Just lil' old me." A dark haired girl said. She had a swing in her step that made her seem less innocent and a smirk on her face that made Willow feel like she was being pictured naked in the new girl's head. Causing a dark red blush to appear on the redhead's face. "Hey, I'm Faith." The girl said, holding out a hand to Willow.
"Willow." She replied curtly. She already didn't like this girl, and for no apparent reason other than she felt that the girl might be gay. Which was a stupid reason given that she had just kissed a girl, but this girl felt like slutty gay.
"And who's she?" Faith asked, gesturing towards Buffy, only because she had enough respect to not interriupt while someone was playing, she was after all, a musician too.
Buffy looked up and answered before Willow or Amy could for her. "She's Buffy." She smiled brilliantly. This was her kind of girl, outspoken and boldly gay. Back at her highschool she had gone through so many of those girls, that it had becaome a type to her.
They shook hands both smiling knowingly. "So, where are you guys from?" Faith asked after she had let go of the blonde's hand.
Willow glared in response. She didn't like this girl, she didn't like the way her and Buffy had looked at eachother, or the way that she had held onto the blonde's hand for just a little bit too long. And so, Amy answered for them. "Sunnydale. You?"
"Around really. I'm an army brat. You know... always on the move. Well, when it's my turn to stay with my dad anyway, but when I'm with my mom. Actually, I don't know. She said she was going to move us while I was here this summer, but she didn't say where we were moving to." Faith shrugged like moving was no big deal.
"Wow, that sucks." Amy said, leaning forward on her bed like she was trying to expose more cleavage. Willow looked at Amy in disbelief. It was obvious to everyone in the room that the redhead didn't like the newcomer, and yet here was her best friend practically coming on to her! She shook her head and got up quickly, and walked out of the cabin.
Buffy watched the exchange before quickly getting up and turning off her bass amp and following the redhead out of the door.
"We need to talk." Buffy said decisevely.
"Yeah...we probably should." Willow nodded her head in agreement.
"I'm gay." Buffy said decisively. And then asked, "Are you?"
"I'm not." Willow answered quickly.
"Well then I guess there's nothing to talk about." Buffy replied, her hopes having just been smashed into a million little pieces.
"I'm bi." Willow said shyly. "But I haven't told anyone but you...I ...I just wasn't sure what anyone would say, and I already get enough crap for being a nerd at my school, so I kept it to myself."
"Oh, well... Maybe we do have something to talk about?" Buffy asked, and watched as Willow nodded her head yes. "I get butterflies in my stomach with you. It's stupid, I've only known you for a few hours and yet you give me butterflies. I mean, you're not my usual type at all."
"Oh... You have a type?" Willow asked, surprised.
"Yeah. Faith. She's my type. The openly sexual and gay. I was known for dating them back at my old school. But not in a slutty way, just dating." Buffy finished off, suddenly finding her shoes to be much more interesting than she would have yesterday.
"Oh."
"And plus... Aren't you with Oz? I mean... Do you even get butterflies with me?"
After some hesitation, she answered, "Yes, on both counts."
"Well, then...I guess you have to choose what you want, just know that... that I'd like for you to choose me." Buffy said quietly before she leaned in and placed a soft kiss on the redhead's cheek and then walked back into the cabin.
Willow could hear them all joking and laughing in there while her mind buzzed about what she should be doing. She sighed as she turned and headed towards the closest trail, she needed time to think, and peace and quiet would have to be a definite part of that.
A/N: So what do you guys think? Cause there's three ways I could go from here...two obvious and one, that's just sick and twisted. Let me know- L.
