FIC: Summer Loving (AU)

[Kieli]

...and apparently you've learnt your lesson too well! No fair leaving us in the lurch like that! More updates, less evil cliffhangers.

Love is tricky. It is never mundane or daily. You can never get used to it. You have to walk with it, then let it walk with you. You can never balk. It moves you like the tide. It takes you out to sea then lays you on the beach again. Today's struggling pain is the foundation for a certain stride through the heavens. You can run from it but you can never say no. It includes everyone."--Amy Tan "The Hundred Secret Senses"

Tara's father really needs to stay out his daughters life. She is a grown woman. I hope he gets lost.

Tara: My heart doesn't stutter.

Tara: Willow, I got so lost.
Willow: I found you. I will always find you.

Willow: Hi, um Tara. I was wondering maybe you want to go out some time for coffee? food? Kisses and gay love?

Love the update - no fair with the cliffhanger...Thanks for the update!! Made my night just that much better!

A dream is a wish the heart makes.

Willow: "You had two eggs, sunny-side-up. I remember because they were wiggling at me like little boobs."

Tara: "Sassy Eggs."

Glad Buffy is being supportive, and that Will has her resolve face on! Definitely bodes well.

        Tara’s dad turned round to face his opposition. He chuckled to himself when he saw Buffy and Willow standing in the doorway with their hands on their hips. “You think I’m going to frightened by two little girls” his smug attitude sent shivers down Willow’s spine.



        “Willow!” Tara’s face lit up as she saw her lover. She stood up so that she was behind her father and facing Willow.



        Buffy just ignored the sexual tension between her best friend the blonde stranger, who she supposed was Tara. “Yes I am little, and well at least I think I’m a girl. The only thing that you got wrong was the fact that you should be very frightened”. The Slayer loved her witty remarks she came out with before she was about to fight.



        Willow was steadily growing in confidence and the presence of the strongest and best fighter alive was always a good back up plan. She walks towards Tara’s father, “So, I’m guessing from that little conversation I just overheard, its your fault that Tara has to leave me”. She had picked up a few little tricks from her vampire-self, especially when she needed to scare someone into believing that she was a lot scarier than the cute little redhead looked. “You know, when people take away my things I get very, very cranky!” she let a little smile play over her lips as she said the line.



        Tara’s father was in shock, he really wasn’t used to being stood up to by women. All his life women had been his slaves and he expected them to treat him as their master. He had controlled Tara’s mother and Tara their whole life, and to see Willow and Buffy act in this kind of manner disgusted him.



        Willow took advantage of his temporary falter and reached out to Tara’s hand and tried to pull her from behind her father and onto the same side as herself and Buffy. Tara’s father picked up on the move and grabbed Willow by the shoulders and slammed her into the wall. On instinct Tara picked up a chair and hit her father over the head with it. causing him to fall to the ground.



        Tara just looked on what she done in shock. All the years that he had abused her, and only now had she finally got her revenge. She was in know way a violent person, the complete opposite in fact. She was brimming with kindness and love, but any threat to a person that she cared about deeply enough was enough incentive to do anything.



        Buffy and Willow just froze and stared at the timid blonde, still holding a chair in her hand. Buffy was the first person to find her voice. “Looks like you didn’t need our help anyway”.



        Tara was just staring at the man lying unconscious on the floor. All the emotions she had been feeling in the past couple of days erupted in side of her and she fell to the ground, shaking in tears. Willow rushed over to her love and embraced her, rocking back and forth, whispering comforting words to ease the pain. Willow was rubbing her hand against Tara’s back, she lifted her head from the blondes shoulder and kissed her forehead. Willow wiped the tears from Tara’s tear-stained cheeks, and kissed Tara’s full red lips. She stopped for a minute resting their foreheads against each other.



        She muttered breathlessly, “I love you so much Tara.” She kissed her blonde again, this time a little more passionately.



        Tara’s tears had stopped momentarily and she said with full confidence, no sign of a stutter in her voice. “Nowhere near as much as I love you.” Willow chucked gently and pulled Tara back into a hug. She didn’t think that now was the best time to argue about who loved who the most, but being Willow she wasn’t going to leave it like that. She kissed Tara’s neck softly and with a sassy tone replied.



        “I’d like to test that theory”, Tara just laughed at the redheads little quirks that she had grown to love even in such a short space of time.



        All this time Buffy had just been staring at the two lovers with her eyebrows raised. “Hey guys, I’m just gunna” there was no reply from the two on the floor, they were completely lost in their own little Tara and Willow world. “Yeah so, taking this bastard to hospital before he dies or something. I’ll meet you at the hotel later?”. There was still no reply. She took the hint “Okey dokey, ill see you later. Have fun” She clapped her hands nervously and then picked up the half dead man with her Slayer strength and made her way out of the bar and down the street. Receiving some very strange looks on her way.



* * * *



        While all this was going on Ken had finally made his way back the table, after pruning himself for a record breaking forty minutes. He came over to the table that he shared with Buffy and found the little note on the table. He read the note and was instantly confused by the semi-complex language the Slayer had used. He decided that it wasn’t worth continuing to eat without his date. He asked the waiter for the bill and left the restaurant, and strutted down the street.



* * * *



        Buffy was just coming up to a road junction when she saw Ken on the other side of the road. He was casually strutting his stuff as he walked down the road. Buffy thought to herself that he looked so sexy with his shades on, even if it was a night when he didn’t need them.



        She shouted over to him, “KEN!” he turned around, immediately knowing that it must have been him that was being called, because he considered himself so utterly amazing.



        He removed his shades so that he could actually see and glared over in Buffy’s general direction. The Slayer was still carrying Mr Maclay in her arms, he saw the man and his little brain found the situation a little to difficult to deal with. He made his way across the road, taking no consideration for the oncoming car, that had to make an emergency stop as not to hit the ego filled male.



        “Heya, I am so sorry about leaving you like that, I had a best friend emergency. You got my note though?” Ken just nodded and then stared at the unconscious man in the blondes arms and became increasingly worried about whether he had chose the right girl. He knew that Buffy looked all sweet and genuine, but was this what she did to all her dates?



        Buffy acknowledged the fear that had crept its way into kens face. She laughed slightly, causing her date to become even more uneasy. “This really isn’t what it looks like, I didn’t do it to him. My best friend’s girlfriend did, well at least I think that she’s her girlfriend.” Buffy screwed up her face and tried to work out exactly why Willow was kissing and declaring her love to a girl. Not that she minded if her best friend being gay, she just felt that maybe she could have at least made a little passing comment on it at some stage.



        During Buffy’s little babble, Ken had backed off considerably. Buffy smiled and rolled her eyes, “Why does this always happen when I meet a new guy! They should really considering adding ‘Boys will think that you are a complete nutcase and you will never have a stable relationship’ in the little speech that the Watcher gives when they tell you about your birthright, maybe I should right to the council about it.” She looked over at a very shocked Ken, he didn’t really know what he was meant to say to that. All he really knew anything about was hair products and fast cars, and that was pushing it slightly.



        He laughed timidly, hoping that what the blonde had just said was some weird joke that he was expected to laugh at. He nodded his head and said, “So maybe I’ll see you around some time yeah?” he had applied his shades and had walked halfway down the street before Buffy could answer him.



        She shouted behind him, “SURE, NICE MEETING YOU KEN.” She then continued her journey to the hospital, gently musing to herself as she went. She looked down at Mr Maclay, “Well I think that went well”. She crossed the road and headed into the A and E.



TBC . . .

Good job, Tara!!! Stand up to your father and let him know he can't control you anymore. Awesome update.

Tara: My heart doesn't stutter.

Tara: Willow, I got so lost.
Willow: I found you. I will always find you.

Willow: Hi, um Tara. I was wondering maybe you want to go out some time for coffee? food? Kisses and gay love?

Bye-bye Mr Maclay

well, well, well.



re: my last post, at the end of chap 6, i could just see willow come in and having the "terminator" look on her face and saying "becuase i love her." but go tara! now who's got the ass-kicking shoes on?

[snuggle79]

well done! It was kinda brutal, but Mr. Maclay deserved it, because he was in no way better to his daughter. So, it was "ok"...

Oh baby, want me to rub your tummy? She likes it when I ... stop explaining things.

Hi, um Tara..how are you? well...I was wondering maybe you want to go out some time...for coffee? food? Kisses and gay love?

[Kieli]

All I can say is GOOD SHOW, TARA! And Ken reminds me so much of the muscleheads I used to know...all brawn, no brains and not as good looking as they think they are. All right missy *snap snap snap* Impatient fan here waiting for more!
