Why So Serious? || Crowley & Faith
It's been a long, long-ass four hours and change from Lebanon to Kansas City and when Crowley suggested a trip to Legends and a fifth watch of the new Revengers flick, she almost pretended to be sick. Some kind of demon virus that conveniently won't let her watch a movie she's already seen. Anything to keep from meeting him today.
Not his fault, for a change. Nobody’s, really. Not even this situation, or the fact that she's been worked into a wide-awake coma by the impending apocalypse and Faith's had that four-hour drive to mull over the actual reason for their distance the last couple of weeks. It's not like her, and they both know it.
She's a couple of minutes early today. Pulling the Impala into the driveway, being ridiculously careful to not scrape the shit out of it while finding a spot between Crowley's antique Lincoln limousine on one side, and Asphalt Furs ridiculous early-eighties band van on the other. Why they feel the need to live in his driveway is beyond her. If she were working for what Crowley pays those werewolves, she'd demand use of the poolhouse.
Faith doesn't kill the engine, doesn't feel like making the journey inside today. She just grips the wheel with both hands, closes her eyes and takes a calming breath, "You can do this, Winchester."
