Chapter Two � A Little White Lie

Buffy might as well had not have gone to her class after attention. Her body was there, but her mind was elsewhere.

�I can�t believe Faith actually �won� this afternoon. One minute I�m in total control, and the next, I�m almost choking on the very same plum that I convinced myself I didn�t want. How did she do it? She had to have been cheating.�

Similar thoughts ran through Buffy�s mind during the length of her Psych-101 Class. She didn�t mind so much that she wasn�t paying attention . . . Faith took the same course the previous semester and would be able to share her old notes.

The thought of Faith in college still amused Buffy more than a little. The same girl who had made such a big stink when they made her get her high-school equivalency was now kicking ass in college.

Much to the amazement of . . ll, ll, pretty much everyone she knew, seceieceived 4 � B�s and 1 � A her first semester. Buffy�s 3 � C�s and 2 � B�s kind of paled in comparison, but the older Slayer was happy at least to be passing.

The first semester was tough on all of the Scoobies. Willow had to deal with the realization that she was gay, and she also had to deal with coming out of the closet to her nearest and dearest. In the end, everything turned out fine. Her friends supported her, and she got a great girlfriend out of the deal. In fact, Tara had invited Willow to share her double room, and the two witches had been living happily ever after since.

Xander, on the other hand, had some problem finding his direction in life. Living in his parents� basement, he picked up several part-time jobs to save money. His weekdays were spent on a construction site, and his weekends were spent on campus working in a local bar. He didn�t mind the �non-student bartender� job, seeing as that he got to spend time with all of his favorite girls while on campus.

Faith had been living in an on-campus apartment. She had 8 roommates, zero with whom she got along w Th They couldn�t handle the fact that though she liked to party hard, she was also trying to do well in school.

As soon as Willow moved in with Tara, Faith began crashing with Buffy. It made sense, anyway: between slaying and going out to either The Bronze of the campus bar to see Xander, they were together most nights anyways. After a little bit of haggling with the Residence Life office, Buffy and Faith made the move official and they became roommates for good.

Buffy had noticed how close she and Faith were bing,ing, or had become. They spent almost all of their spare time together. Whether it be slaying, going out, getting something to eat before or after class, or even the weekend visit to Joyce�s to do laundry.

She also couldn�t help but notice how comfortable she had become around Faith. She had no problem walking around their room in her bra and boyshorts, she didn�t mind when Faith would dance oh-so-close to her when they went out, and she didn�t mind when Faith would �growl� at guys who got too close to the two of them.

In fact, she was getting so close to Faith that it almost scared her. She had put off her quest to find �the perfect boyfriend� seeing as that she was spending all of her free time with Faith anyways.

Plus, no matter how hard she tried, she couldn�t block out the voice in the back of her mind that kept telling her, �Hey . . . college is supposed to be about experimentation, and being young and dumb! Let go of your inhibitions! You only live once, and Slayers are supposed to die young, so get with the living!�

Buffy also couldn�t ignore the fact that even though Faith had toned down her usual barrage of flirting and sexual innuendos, there was still a hint of the �old Faith� left. On more than one occasion, the younger girl had hinted that she�d like to expand their relationship a bit.

Actually, her exact words were, �We should just do it and get it over with already. We both know that�s where it�s headed anyways, B. Either after a drunken frat-party or a night of some real good slayin� . . . it�s bound to happen sooner or later. Let�s just get it outta the way is all I�m sayin.�

At the time, Buffy had attributed Faith�s little confession to a case of the post-slayage hornies. Her only response to the younger girl had been to giggle a bit and say, �Faith, the only way you�re getting into my pants is if you steal them out of my closet.�

Faith had just laughed at her response. �Whatever you say, twinkie. When that river in Egypt dries up, you make sure you give me a call.�

As Buffy thought about it while sitting in her Psych class, she pouted to herself a little. �I am not in denial. I am so totally far from denial . . . heck, I�m Mrs. Miles-from-Denial. Heh.�

Buffy was pulled from her thoughts when she noticed that everyone was getting up from their seats and leaving the lecture hall.

�Oops . . . guess I kinda lost track of time. But . . . yay! I�m finally done with classes. Time to get back to Faith and . . . . wait. I am SO not going back to the dorm. She�ll be there, all smug from this afternoon�s little freak show and scheming for the next challenge. I�ll just go visit Willow and Tara for awhile.�

Buffy stood up and grabbed her bag before slinging it over her shoulder and heading for the door. Before she could exit, she felt a heavy hand on her shoulder. She turned around quickly to see who it was.

�Oh, hey Riley. What�s up? Did I forget to hand in an assignment or something?� she asked the tall guy in front of her.

Riley had caught her eye the previous semester, B.F. (That�s before-Faith . . . Buffy�s little term for her time in college before Faith moved in with her). At first, she thought he was the exact kind of person she was looking for. Tall, semi-good-looking, smart, and a good guy in general.

But, P.F. (yep, you guessed it . . . post-Faith), Buffy couldn�t help but find him just the slightest . . . dull and boring. Not wanting to have to let him down after showing an initial interest, she just stopped paying attention to him altogether.

Apparently, he hadn�t forgotten about her.

�Hi Buffy. How have you been doing? I hardly ever get the chance to talk to you anymore.� He said with a large, annoying smile.

Just the sight of him in front of her now was enough to make Buffy wish she had done a better job of ignoring him.

�I�m good, thanks. I�ve just been busy, you know? With the friends, and the new roommate, and the studying, and the slay . . .� she caught herself about to say slaying and quickly tried to cover, �. . .slate. Yep, the slate.� She said nervously.

�The slate?�

�Yeah, you know, the slate. I�m . . . taking a geology class. Lots of slate. And rocks.�

An awkward silence filled the as ths the two looked anywhere but at each other. Finally, Riley spoke up again.

�So, I was wondering if maybe you want to get a coffee or something. I don�t have any more classodayoday. But, if you�re busy now, maybe I could take you out later . . ."

Buffy quickly cut him off.

�Oh, that�s really nice of you to ask, Riley, but I . . . have to go to my geology class now. Yep, I have to hand in my report on . . . rocks.� She faltered a bit trying to hide her lie.

�Well, what about tonight? Do you want to go to the Bronze?� he asked, a hopeful smile appearing on his face.

�Oh, darn, you know what? I already have plans tonight. And tomorrow. In fact, I think I�m pretty busy for the next week or so. Sorry.� She said gently, trying to be nice, but clearly nottingting to leave any windows of opportunity open for him.

�Wow. Guess I gotta book a little farther ahead in advance if I want to get a date with you . . . .unless, of course, you�re seeing someone else. Which, I guess, would explain the lack of availability?� He gave her a questioning look.

�What? OH! Yeah, that�s it. I�m sorry, Riley. I am seeing someone else.� She lied, thinking that this was the best possible way to get him off of her back, at least for the time being.

Riley looked a little shocked. �Oh. I�m sorry, I didn�t realize that. After all, every time I see you, you�re always with your new roommate . . . Faith, right? I�ve never seen you with another guy. Unless . . .� Then something dawned on him. � . . . wait a minute . . . is it Faith?�

Buffy just blinked, trying to come up with a response. Just as her silence was becoming a littoo too long, she happened to look out the window to see Faith walking by on her way back to the dorm.

�Faith?� Buffy murmured a she watched the girl walk by, forgetting that Riley was standing there.

Riley coughed quietly, trying to catch her attention. Her head snapped back and she looked directly at him.

�Okay Buffy, this can work to your advantage. Tell him you�re �with� Faith. Then, not only will he think you�re taken, but he�ll think you�re gay, too. Two good reasons for him to leave you alone. It's just a little white lie. Okay, go with it for now, deal with the consequences later.�

�Yep, Faith. Me and Faith. Together. With the dating and the hand-holding and all that. Guess we just haven�t gone too public yet. Sorry.� She rushed the words out.

Riley just stood there, a defeated look on his face.

�Oh, ok. Well, I guess I�ll see you around then.� His voice sounded a little sad, but he put on a smile, trying to cover his real feelings. You know, the same stupid smile that made Buffy cringe just a little bit.

�Okay, bye!� Buffy yelled over her shoulder as she high-tailed it out of the building and straight towards Faith.

As she had reached the outside of the building, she could feel eyes on her from behind. Riley had followed her out and stood watching her from the doorway. Knowing that he was watching, she knew she had to put on a little show.

She ran up to Faith, but kept her own back towards Riley so he couldn�t see her face.

As she approached the dark girl, she ca out out to her just barely loud enough to get her attention.

�Faith!� Buffy called.

The younger girl turned towards Buffy with a smile on her face. �Hey girlfriend.� She noticed Buffy�s annoyed face. �What�s with the look?�

Through clenched teeth Buffy answered, �Riley is watching from the building behind me. I�ll explain later, but I need you to just play along with me for a minute here. Can you do that?�

Seeing Buffy�s pleading look, Faith nodded. �Yeah, sure.�

�Good.�

Without warning, Buffy leaned forward and placed a lingering kissFaitFaith�s lips. She felt Faith tense up and could sense that her eyes had popped open in shock. She pulled back a few inches and looked Faith in the eye.

�Okay, now I need you to either my my hand or put your arm around me as we walk away. You�re choice. Now, let�s go before he walks over.�

Faith shook her head a little as if trying to regain a little composure. After a moment or too, she finally came back to her senses. Not wanting to look a gift horse in the mouth, she quickly grabbed the other girls' hand and interlaced their fingers.

They began walking back towards their dorm, Buffy with a relieved look on her face and Faith with a genuinely content smile on hers.
