A woman putting herself between two men battling it out in a dark alley wasn't probably the smartest thing to do. However Faith wasn't an ordinary woman and these weren't ordinary men. One a half breed hybrid of human and vampire, heightened senses and abilities with less draw backs. One was a full demon, or vampire, driven mostly by instincts over anything else including a conscious. Granted Spike had a soul which meant he did in fact have a conscious and a good one, but that didn't meant he always listened to it. And she a vampire slayer. The one thing built to destroy the both of them. Clearly she wasn't going to as they both held a place in her heart, but still. Therefore she didn't fear stepping into the middle of it. After all she had in fact caused the scuffle in the first place.
The look in the vampire's eyes as she spoke shouldn't have surprised her but in a way...it kind of did. Faith wasn't one for apologies. She didn't say she was sorry as she rarely ever was. This time she was legitimately sorry but the words still hadn't come through her lips. Instead they had spoken out through her eyes and that was the closest anyone would probably ever get to receiving an apology from her. Regardless of her efforts Spike's tone was cold and he refused to accept the apology. Next time she vowed that she wouldn't even try. For a moment she couldn't tell what exactly his comment was supposed to be mean. If he meant she would have pushed him into a wall sexually, or if it meant violently. Regardless of what his comment was saying she rolled her eyes and chose not to respond. Probably the better choice for this moment. They didn't need any extra added drama coming into the mix and she certainly didn't need to further blow things out of proportion.
Damn it, Connor... Boy should have just stayed quiet. It seemed as if they were both now rallying up against Spike. While she hadn't meant it that way that was how it surely seemed to the vampire. Connor also came at him with a Buffy comment of his own. If Buffy heard any wind of this, she was probably going to smack Faith. Or all of them. A part of her wished that Connor hadn't stepped in with the comments as well. She didn't need anyone coming to her defense or aid. Plus she hadn't even wanted to say it in the first place to the bleached blonde vampire, it'd simply come out. Before she had the chance to butt in things took yet another turn for the worse. Hearing Spike's words, she found that it was surprising just how deep they cut into her. Just like a knife through butter she felt them slice into her, her eyes turning to his with a look of disbelief that he'd even said that.
Her eyes widened further as he basically implied that he wanted her to stay with him and leave Connor. She was just honestly in disbelief at the moment. Did he really think she would stayujs finding that her fuse was getting shorter and shorter by the moment. All of her body began to heat up at once and she found that she simply couldn't take it anymore. Looking from one man to the other, she finally stopped and said fuck it. "Screw you both" she said through grinding teeth, a pure look of rage and annoyance present within her eyes. It felt as if they each had a hold of her and were playing tug-of-war like she was some kind of dog toy. Whatever the case it was annoying as shit and she was fed up with it. She wasn't picking anyone tonight. She was over it, over the entire thing. Just when things started getting good for her they were soon put back into shambles once again. With a glare to both of them, she simply stormed off down the other direction of the alley and away from the both of them.
