Robby looked out the kitchen window and saw Faith. She smiled and took her time opening it.
"It's about time!" said Faith coming in, "it's boiling out there!"
"I know," said Robby evily.
"You haven't changed a bit you know that."
"Very true."
"So have you packed?"
"Everything except the stuff I need until tomorrow."
"Great! Where we headed?"
"I was thinking L.A."
"No we can go to L.A. any time. Let's go some where with snow. Like...New York."
"But I wanna dust some vamps. Everyone knows there's tons of vamps in L.A. Not to mention Hollywood. Hot movie actors. Eh? Eh?"
"But it's so hot."
"We can go to Disneyland."
Faith gave her an evil look, "Fine."
"Yeah!"
"But I get to hug Goofy first. And if you tell anyone I said that I will kill you."
"Fine by me. We'll go to New York after. I promise."
"In time for new years?"
"Of course."
"Okay, sorry I didn't get you a present. There's like nothing in stock."
"No prob. It's not like I gave you much notice. I didn't get you anything either."
"Why didn't you tell me you were coming?"
"I didn't know you were here. I..."

Robby picked up the phone, "Hello?"
"Robby it's Wesely. Is Faith there?"
"Why?"
"Because we were supposed to train today and she never showed up."
"How did you get this number?"
"I had the coucil..."
"Look, the council isn't someone I want knowing where I am. And I know that's not proper grammer and I don't care."
She hung up.
"That felt good."
"Must have."
"Did you tell him you're coming with me?"
"Nah, I'll crush 'em tomorrow five minutes before we take off."
"Fine by me."
Ring
"Hello?"
"Robby? It's Xander."
"Oh hey. What's up?"
"Well Willow and me were wondering if we could come over and watch Snoopy's Christmas at your place."
"Sure, but why can't you watch it at your place?"
"My parents...they're mad."
"Okay, do you know where I live?"
"Yep. We'll be over in five."
"Buffy can come if she wants to."
"She's at her house with her mom."
"Okay bye."
"Bye."
"Who was that?" asked Faith.
"Xander and Willow are coming over to watch Snoopy."
"Oh?"
"Apparently his parents are mad."
"Oh. What do you think of Harris?"
"Seems nice."
"But not Angel nice?"
"You'll do anything to get on that topic."
"Why not. It's a good topic."
"And it will always get the same answer: no."
"Fine. You should at least talk to him. I mean we're leaving tomorrow. He could spend all eternity wondering about what could have been."
"Thank you little miss poet that is really gonna change my mind."
"Was worth a try."
"It didn't mean anything hon. We kissed so our legs would work again. Not so something would happen."
"Sure ya did."
Robby ignored that and went to open the front door. She did right when Xander was about to knock.
"How did you know we were here?"
"She's a super something remember Willow," explained Xander, "she knows things."
"Come on in guys."
Willow and Xander came in and looked around.
"Do you need help in packing?" asked Willow.
"Oh no. I'm leaving tomorrow."
"But you said you were staying!"
"Something came up."
"But do you have to go so soon?"
"Yeah, it's better that I do."
"You sure?" asked Xander.
"Yeah."
"Can we at least be pen pals?"
"I don't have a house. But email is doable."
They watched Snoopy and Faith and Robby got to see Xander do the Snoopy dance. Needless to say, funny.
After Willow and Xander left, Faith went to go party at the Bronze one last night. Promising to join her later Robby sat on the porch for a while. Then she felt someone watching her.
"Angel?"
"Damn it," came a gowl from the bushes.
"You have to be a bit further away for me not to notice you. Come out."
He slowly stood and came to the gate, "Hi."
"Hi."
"How are you?"
"Good. You?"
"Good."
There were a few minutes of ackward silence.
"You know I gotta go..."
"Yeah I'm meeting Faith..."
"Bye."
"Bye."
Angel sped off and Robby went inside.
"Real bright," Robby smacked her head, "real bright."
Down the street Angel almost kicked himself.
"Great way to resolve things."
