A/N: Written for the open_on_sunday  prompt #325: CUP

The rain drummed down on the ground like a dire drowning hush from the dark sky, muffling the music of the night sounds in the city. Her tears mimicked each drop of falling rain as cold bolts of water pelted her.

She felt as if she were drowning.

“I'm bad!” she sobbed.

As if trying to break her, free her, the rain continued to pour down on her in torrents. But she knew it wouldn't, as she cried and desperately clutched at Angel. She knew it wouldn't wash her soul, her conscience, or her heart.

Because she was bad. Evil.

Poor Faithie. She never had the support system Buffy did. I think Angel did more for Faith than he ever did for Buffy. Love Faith and Angel together. And YAY for your first drabble here!

Yep, Angel did a lot for her. And that ending scene with him and Faith in Five by Five never fails to make my cry. So heartbreaking!

And YAY for the YAY! :D

Nice. Excellent capture of the emotional tumult of that last scene in "Five by Five." Of course the rain's not going to wash away Faith's sins. She's going to have to work on redemption harder than that.
