A/N: I�m not getting very many reviews, so I can�t
tell whether people really like this or not.
Let me know if you like where I�m taking this� or if you absolutely hate
it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Ow�

Maybe all those martinis at the club last
night wasn�t such a great idea� �cause right now, my
head feels like giant over-inflated balloon that�s about to pop and there are
hundreds of tiny construction workers in there running jackhammers. I get up and stagger into my bathroom. Lifting the lid on my toilet, I quickly empty
the contents of my stomach into the porcelain basin.

�Mornin� twinkie,� Faith smirks walking in, �you always look this
good when you first wake up, baby?�

�Fuck you.�
My verbal skills are not at their finest right now and I certainly do
not want to deal with her right now.

�Maybe later, honey,� she says flatly. In a surprising act of kindness she opens my
medicine cabinet and takes out a bottle of aspirin, drops two in my hand, then
hands me a glass of water. I graciously
take the pills and guzzle the water.

�Thanks,� I murmur, getting into a standing
position. She looks me up and down, then gives me a huge shit-eating grin. I know I look like shit, but I�ve seen her
after one of her drinking binges too.
�What Faith?�

�I hope you didn�t forget our date tonight,
babe. Your parents are expecting us at
their housewarming party.� Oh fuck.

�Since when do you care what my parents expect of us?�

�I don�t,� she replies tersely, �but you do,
just thought that I�d remind you.� She turns on her heels and walks out. I wonder what she�s up to�

After taking a nice, long, hot shower, I�m
getting ready to go shopping. I have to
get a new dress for my parents� party.
She�s right, I do care about what my parents think � my therapist says I
care too much, but fuck him, what does he know?
All my life, I�ve tried so hard for their approval. But as soon as Faith walks in the picture,
what do they do? They fawn all over her,
like she can do no wrong. I couldn�t even
face them for the longest time after they � and the rest of the rich and social
� heard about Faith�s affair with Cordelia.
Naturally, my parents blamed me
for that, said I didn�t do enough to keep her interested. Hmm, if they only knew� It takes me three hours to find the perfect
dress, which is not bad, considering it usually takes me over twice that long. I found the little gem at a boutique on Lexington Avenue. It�s a full-length
dress, made of dark red silk, with a slit up the side that reaches mid-thigh
and is almost completely backless. Not
too slutty, but classy and definitely sexy. I love it, hopefully my parents will too�

�

We arrive at the party fashionably late �
at Faith�s insistence � and are greeted immediately by my baby sister, Dawn.

�You�re late and mom is looking for you,�
the brat says to me dryly.

�Well, it�s nice to see you too, Dawnie,� I reply sarcastically.

Her tone changes as soon as she sees Faith
walk up behind me, �Oh, hey Faith, welcome.�

�Hey brat,� Faith merely shrugs, taking my
hand as we walk inside.

The first floor is crowded with socialites
and the like. So it takes me a minute to
spot my mother and father in the banquet room, near the fireplace.

�Mom,� I greet, giving her a polite hug,
�Daddy,� and him a peck on the cheek.

�Buffy, Faith, how nice of you to join us,�
my father says obligingly.

�What took you so long?� my mother asks,
sounding rather irritated.

�Well, mom, I��

�Never mind,� she turns to Faith who�s been
quiet thus far, �I know how long it can take her to get ready. So, Faith, you look wonderful and how are
your parents?�

�They�re fine,� she replies casually, her
eyes scanning the room. What the fuck is
she looking for?

�Mom, is there anything you�d like to say
to me?� About my dress
perhaps? And how long it took to
get my hair done today?

She surveys me slowly, then
asks, �Honey, have you gained a few pounds?�

My jaw drops. That bitch!
Faith puts on a fucking black pantsuit in fifteen minutes and she gets
complimented as soon as she sets foot in here.
I spend the whole day trying to make myself look incredible and I get
�have you gained a few pounds?�

�I��

�C�mon baby, why don�t we go get us a few
drinks?� Faith interjects, still holding my hand and starting to pull me away.

�Faith, Buffy, we can��

�No, its okay we�ll get them,� she quickly
leads me away. She snatches a couple of
champagne flutes from a passing waiter�s tray and escorts me outside to the
patio. I lean against the railing,
taking a glass from her. Downing the
bubbly in one swig, I throw the flute against an opposing wall, shattering the
glass.

�How dare she��

�Chill baby, you know how your mom is,� she
whispers, leaning into me. She tenderly
lifts my chin with her index finger and gives me a soft kiss. I give her weak smile.

�Why don�t you wait out here, I�ll be right
back with something a little stronger��

��Kay,� as I watch her leave, my eyes
settle on a picturesque brunette standing near the bar.

Cordelia Chase.

What in the fuck is she doing here?
