Drabble: A Kiss on the Lips (AtS, Faith)

Title: A Kiss on the Lips
A/N: Faith/Wesley set during Five by Five; xposted to [livejournal.com profile] open_on_sunday
Rating: PG
Summary: Look how pretty she is when she falls down.


A Kiss on the Lips



Her hands shake and her mascara is smudged, black shadows that hollow out her eyes. Her lipstick smeared at the corners of her mouth and you think how that, too, is a sign of insanity. The old and the insane coloring outside the lines. Tragedy that bleeds from her eyes through all the make-up.

You hate her for being crazy instead of just evil. A fragile nineteen year-old girl, sharp as glass. Her shivering, blood stained, fingers belie the fury in her eyes.

“I think I want to hear you scream,” Faith whispers and pulls the gag from your mouth.

Oh yes. You've captured Faith's mood and desperation wonderfully.
