Spoilers: Anything up to the end of season 5 or 6, also in this timeline Buffy doesn’t die she just defeated Glory, but Joyce is dead. You should probably read this from the first part or you may be a little lost.
Paring: W/T, and the rest of the gang are in here to.
Disclaimer: I don’t own any of the “Buffy” characters, I did however create some new ones for this story, but it’s dealing with Buffy so that’s Joss’s territory not mine.
Rating: I’d guess PG-13 to be on the safe side
Pan to a hotel room. Willow is lying in bed alone.
TARA: (On the balcony, looking out at the ocean as the sun is coming up)
WILLOW: (Walks behind Tara and wraps her arms around her) Hey baby.
TARA: (Smiles) Hey.
WILLOW: I thought…you know…the whole thing about being married is you didn’t have to wake up alone.
TARA: Oh, well, I woke up and had to see the sunrise.
WILLOW: (Smiles) Yeah. Who knew Hawaii looked this good?
TARA: What do you mean? This is the only thing we’ve seen. (Grins)
WILLOW: And whose fault is that?
TARA: Ours.
WILLOW: (Smiles) Well we’ve got another 2 whole weeks to play in the sun, (Kisses Tara’s neck) so how about today we play inside.
TARA: (Turns to face Willow) Um…only if you promise a bath later. (Grins)
WILLOW: Yeah. I’m thinking that inside play is defiantly the way to go. (Pulls Tara to the bed)
Cut to Dawn’s room were she’s asleep. Tally walks in with a rose, leans down and kisses Dawn’s forehead.
DAWN: (Wakes up smiling) Um…what time is it?
TALLY: Late. Buffy and I just got back from patrol. (Hands Dawn the rose) Got this for you.
DAWN: (Sits up) (Pats the bed) Here. Sit.
TALLY: (Sits by Dawn)
DAWN: (Smells the flower) This is nice. Thanks. (Kisses Tally) So, how was patrol?
TALLY: Boring.
DAWN: Good! (Winks) So, where is Buffy?
TALLY: Oh she’s downstairs raiding the fridge
DAWN: (Pulls Tally close and kisses her)
TALLY: (Pulls back) Wow! Where’d that come from?
DAWN: Do I have to have a reason to kiss my girlfriend?
TALLY: Nope. (Smiles) (Kisses Dawn)
BUFFY: (Sticks her head in the door) Ok…break it up. It’s bedtime…in separate beds.
TALLY: (Smiles, stands up) See you in the morning.
BUFFY: That’s right ‘cause remember…slayer hearing. I’ll know if you ‘try’ and sneak in here.
DAWN: Night guys. (Slides back into the bed)
TALLY: (Leans over and tucks Dawn in) (Kisses forehead) Sweet dreams. (Smiles)
DAWN: (Smiles) You, too. (Falls asleep)
BUFFY: (Closes Dawn’s door as Tally walks out) I’m really glad you two are ok now.
TALLY: Me too, Buffy. Me too.
Cut to the roof of the Summers home. Tally is sitting by herself, looking up at the moon.
DAWN: (Makes her way to Tally, and hugs her from behind)
TALLY: (Jumps) Dawn! What are you doing out here?
DAWN: Hello to you, too. (Sits beside Tally) Whatcha doing out here?
TALLY: (Grins) Getting a suntan.
DAWN: Ha ha, very funny.
TALLY: I was looking for the big pineapple.
DAWN: Say what?
TALLY: Well, Willow tried to tell me the right names and I got all confused, so Tara took me up on the roof one night and pointed out some stuff. My favorite was the big pineapple, but it seams to be covered with clouds tonight.
DAWN: You miss them already.
TALLY: (Smiles) No I just… (Cut off by Dawn)
DAWN: Its ok. A big superhero-in-training doesn’t have to admit she misses her parents. (Nudges Tally’s arm)
TALLY: (Grins)
DAWN: What?
TALLY: Well, as much as I miss them, I’m glad I’m getting to spend time with you.
DAWN: (Smiles) Me, too. (Kisses Tally)
TALLY: So, how’d you get up here without Buffy noticing?
DAWN: Oh, please! For someone with ‘supposed’ slayer hearing, she sleeps like a log.
TALLY: (Laughs)
Cut to the beach were Tara is lying in a beach chair, sleeping.
WILLOW: (Walks up with two drinks, sits them on the table by the chair, and squats by Tara’s ear) So tell me…
TARA: (Opens her eyes) Yes?
WILLOW: What do you say we run off together?
TARA: Sorry, I’m on my honeymoon.
WILLOW: Well, any idiot that would leave a hottie like you alone in a bathing suit like that doesn’t deserve you.
TARA: (Blushing) Um…sorry. I’m in love. What can I say?
WILLOW: Say you’ll kiss me, at least.
TARA: (Playing along) But what if my wife come… (Cut off by Willow kissing her) Wow! (Smiles)
WILLOW: Yeah, well, what can I say? I have that affect on married women. (Winks)
TARA: (Nudges Willow’s arm) Oh, so you do this a lot, huh?
WILLOW: Only to hot blondes who have on my matching wedding ring.
TARA: Well, in that case… (Kisses Willow)
WILLOW: So, you ready for swimming in the lagoon today?
TARA: (Smiles) Yes, if you promise to keep up. (Winks)
WILLOW: Oh, playful Tara. I like it (Smiles)
TARA: Before we go, I saw something in a shop I want to pick up for Tally. Do you care if we go get it before someone else does?
WILLOW: (Smiles, as she touches Tara’s face) You’re so sweet. Of course, I don’t mind. I saw a computer program of Hawaii that I want to get for her, too. So, what do you say we go shopping. (Smiles)
TARA: Only if you promise to get her something besides a computer program. Sweetie, really, she’s not going to college for computers.
WILLOW: She said she hasn’t decided what she wants to major in yet. (Stands up)
TARA: (Laughing)
WILLOW: (Helps Tara up) What?
TARA: I just think it’s kind of funny, is all.
WILLOW: (Takes Tara’s hand as they walk towards the shops) What’s funny?
TARA: You want her to go to school for computers just like you. (Smiles)
WILLOW: Well, I want to be the proud…um…papa. (Smiles) You know what I mean? Clapping at college graduation…saying ‘she’s a chip off the old block’.
TARA: Honey, I think no matter what she majors in, you’ll say that. (Smiles)
WILLOW: Yeah, ok. You think you have me so figured out and know just what buttons to push, huh? (Playfully pouts)
TARA: I must. You never seem to complain. (Winks) (Goes into a shop)
WILLOW: Hey, no fair! (Follows her in)
Cut to Dawn and Tally driving in the jeep. They’re outside of town, just starting to come back into town.
DAWN: (Pouting) I can’t believe I got a 35 on that stupid test!
TALLY: You didn’t study enough.
DAWN: Oh! This coming from the girl who hardly ever cracks a book?
TALLY: Hey! I study.
DAWN: Not as much as I have to. Why couldn’t we have an extra week off like Willow?
TALLY: Well, ‘cause they took a few days absence from class. Last time I checked, we couldn’t do that just for bad test grades. (Smiles)
DAWN: (Smiles) I need ice cream. This road trip didn’t help.
TALLY: (Looks around) Sorry, don’t have any handy.
DAWN: Well, you know, it’s funny. They have these stores that actually sell it.
TALLY: Really? That is funny. (Smiles) So…
DAWN: So, what?
TALLY: So, would you like me to stop?
DAWN: Well, duh.
TALLY: Is that a yes or no?
DAWN: If you weren’t driving, I’d so be tickling you right now.
TALLY: (Pulls into the park) Ok. I’m stopped.
DAWN: (Leans over and starts tickling Tally)
TALLY: (Laughing) Ok, stop! (Holds Dawns arms) I’m stronger than you, Dawnie.
DAWN: (Maneuvers her way on to Tally’s lap) Yeah. Well, I’m more cunning.
TALLY: Yeah well… (Cut off by Dawn kissing her) (Puts hands in the back of Dawn’s shirt) (Kisses her neck)
DAWN: (Kisses Tally’s neck) Let’s go to your place.
TALLY: Dawn… (Cut off by Anya)
ANYA: Well, finally! (Walks up to the Jeep, out of breath) I’ve been looking all over for you! (Notices Dawn’s in Tally’s lap) Sorry, you’ll have to have orgasm’s later. I need you at the shop. Xander’s only going to last a few more minutes before he passes out. I swear, men are no good sometimes! (hands Tally a beeper) Keep this with you from now on.
TALLY: Ok. I’ll be there as soon as I drop Dawn off.
ANYA: Fine. But, if you don’t go in…just drop her off…then I’ll keep this little park display just between us.
TALLY: Fine.
ANYA: (Gets in Jeep)
DAWN: Anya, what are you doing?
ANYA: Oh, please. I’m not walking all the way back. You’re dropping me off. I swear, since I put that sign on the back of Willow and Tara’s carriage, I’ve had more witches in the shop than I know what to do with. (Taps Tally’s shoulder) See…I told you it was a good idea.
TALLY: Yeah, yeah. (Cranks the jeep back up)
Cut to the lagoon, where Tara and Willow are swimming. It’s a wooded area, very green and very pretty, and there’s a waterfall and rocks. They have their stuff on a blanket on the bank.
TARA: (Ducks Willow under the water)
WILLOW: (Springs back up) That wasn’t funny!
TARA: Really? (Laughing) ‘Cause from the look on your face, it was hilarious.
WILLOW: (Throws her arms around Tara’s neck) I love you so much!
TARA: (Smiles) I love you, too.
WILLOW: (Ducks Tara)
TARA: (Comes back up) HEY!
WILLOW: Now, that was hilarious!
TARA: No fair…you were distracting me… (Cut off by Willow kissing her)
WILLOW: You were saying?
TARA: Sorry. I forgot, I got distracted.
WILLOW: How about we eat lunch?
TARA: (Smiles) Sounds like a plan.
They get out and dry a little with their towels and go over to the blanket. Tara gets some of the food out.
WILLOW: So, what’d you pack? (Smiles)
TARA: Oh, you know, the basics.
WILLOW: Which is?
TARA: (Pulls out strawberries)
WILLOW: Oh, yeah, the basic essentials. Got any whip cream in there?
TARA: What do you take me for? (Smiles)
WILLOW: Someone who’s trying to hide whip cream. (Tackles Tara, pulls a can of whip cream out of Tara’s hand) See?
TARA: Well, I didn’t know that was in there. (Laughs)
WILLOW: Sure. (Grins) (Squirts some whip cream on Tara’s shoulder)
TARA: Willow!
WILLOW: (Licks it off of Tara’s shoulder) Um…yeah…I like that flavored treat.
TARA: Vixen! (Smiles)
WILLOW: Hey, I’ll admit it! Hi, I’m Willow and I’m…addicted to my wife. (Smiles)
TARA: Hi, I’m Tara and I’m addicted to Willow-hand. (Grins)
WILLOW: Well, in this case, I think it’s best we try to not cut you off from the addiction. (Smiles)
TARA: Oh, I agree! (Kisses Willow)
Cut to the Summer’s home. Dawn and Buffy are attempting to cook. Smoke is coming out of the oven. Tally walks in the door.
TALLY: (Coughing) What’s going on?
BUFFY: (Points to Dawn) It’s her fault!
DAWN: It soooo is not! You wanted lasagna.
TALLY: (Laughing) Ok, guys. I’ll cook it.
BUFFY: (Smiling) Really?
TALLY: Yeah. If you both promise to clean up the kitchen…your mess AND my mess.
DAWN: We agree. (Hugs Tally) I love you.
TALLY: You just love me ‘cause you won’t starve.
DAWN: True. (Winks)
BUFFY: I’m going to puke.
DAWN: Oh, please! Now you know how I felt all the times you and Riley tried to get it on in front of me.
BUFFY: We so…um…don’t do as I do, do as I say.
DAWN: (Rolls her eyes) Gee, Buff, you’re really starting to sound like mom.
BUFFY: (Just stares at Dawn, then pulls her sister into a hug)
TALLY: (Smiles)
A little while later, Buffy and Dawn are cleaning the kitchen. Tally is at the end of the table doing homework.
BUFFY: So, Tally, you going on patrol with me tonight?
TALLY: (Looks at Dawn) If you need me to.
BUFFY: (Notices them looking at each other) Yeah. Definitely need you to. It’s like…um…essential.
TALLY: (Grins) Ok, then let me just finish this up.
DAWN: I want to come with you guys.
BUFFY: No way, Dawn. You have to finish your math
DAWN: Oh, Buffy, come on!
BUFFY: Nope. If you’d finished your math, I’d let you come.
DAWN: So, tomorrow night then?
BUFFY: Maybe. (Winks)
DAWN: (Smiles) Thanks.
Cut to Buffy and Tally on patrol.
BUFFY: So, the prom’s coming up soon.
TALLY: (Smiles) Yeah.
BUFFY: Figured out what you’re going to wear?
TALLY: My tux number from the wedding.
BUFFY: Cool. Dawn wants to go shopping. I’m afraid to ask for the prices of the dresses she wants. (Laughs)
TALLY: She could wear nothing and look good.
BUFFY: (Stops and puts a hand on Tally’s shoulder) How do you know she could wear nothing and look good? You guys didn’t…you, um, haven’t…um…have you…yet, right…I mean, the spell got stopped…so, you didn’t…you haven’t…right?
TALLY: Are you sure Mom’s babble hasn’t rubbed off on you?
BUFFY: That doesn’t answer my question!
TALLY: Which was?
BUFFY: Oh, you know what the hell I’m talking about.
TALLY: Buffy, I don’t really think I should talk to you about this. Dawn would kill me.
BUFFY: Oh, so you guys…
TALLY: No.
BUFFY: No…you haven’t? (Walks ahead)
TALLY: No, we haven’t. (Grins)(Under her breath) Not yet anyway.
BUFFY: (Stops) What did you say?
TALLY: Just that it seems quiet tonight.
BUFFY: Yeah. Oh well, that makes it easier. (Smiles)
Cut to the roof were Tally is sitting. Dawn comes up with two coffee mugs.
DAWN: Thought I’d find you up here.
TALLY: You have me all figured out, huh? (Smiles)
DAWN: (Hands Tally a cup) Homemade hot cocoa. (Sits beside Tally)
TALLY: Um… (Takes a sip) this is good.
DAWN: You sound surprised.
TALLY: Maybe a bit.
DAWN: (Tickles Tally) (Drops her mug on the ground) Now, look what you made me do.
TALLY: Oh, that was all you baby.
DAWN: Let me have some of yours.
TALLY: Nope. You’re the one who went all tickle-fest on me. Now, I get all the cocoa goodness. (Smiles)
DAWN: (Grins) So, how was patrol?
TALLY: Ah, it was ok. Buffy gave me twenty questions, but other than that…
DAWN: Twenty questions, huh? What’d she want to know about?
TALLY: Us.
DAWN: (Blushes) You’re serious?
TALLY: Oh, yeah. It was kind of funny to see her try to ask if we were having sex. Then she never actually asked. (Smiles) I wish I’d had a camera.
DAWN: That’s a question that I’d like to know, too.
TALLY: (Caught off guard) Huh?
DAWN: When are we going to sleep together?
TALLY: Um…well, I didn’t really think we were planning, you know? I just figured when it felt right.
DAWN: It feels right now. (Looks at Tally)
TALLY: Here. (Looks around the roof)
DAWN: Well, we’d have an interesting story. (Grins)
TALLY: (Smiles)
DAWN: (Takes the mug out of Tally’s hand and throws it to the ground, then sits in her lap)
TALLY: Is this some tactic so I won’t move?
DAWN: Oh, no. (Kisses Tally) I want you to move…just not away from me. (Grins)
TALLY: (Kisses Dawn) (Pulls at the buttons on Dawn’s shirt)
DAWN: (Un-tucks Tally’s shirt)
TALLY: (Rubs Dawn’s back)
DAWN: (Pushes Tally down on the roof)
TALLY: (Rolls Dawn over and gets on top kissing her) (Stops and pulls up a bit) Are you sure?
DAWN: (Pulls Tally back down into a kiss)
About that time the roof cracks, and they both fall through the roof, into Buffy’s Bedroom.
BUFFY: (Sits up in bed) Oh My God!!!!! (Looks at the big hole in the roof) What the hell were…
DAWN: (Buttoning her shirt back up)
TALLY: (Stands up) (Looks at Dawn) Are you ok?
DAWN: Yeah…only my pride is hurt.
BUFFY: You both were… (Stops) Oh god! Look at the roof!
TALLY: Buffy, I’m really sorry.
DAWN: (Stands up)
BUFFY: And over my room? You couldn’t have at least gone over the guest room or something?
DAWN: Well you can see the stars… never mind.
BUFFY: I don’t want to hear it! You’re grounded!
DAWN: Buffy, don’t be… (Cut off by Buffy)
BUFFY: (Looks at Tally) You’re going to fix this. I’ll call Xander in the morning and you can help him. Until then, help me put a tarp up or something. (Looks at Dawn) Go to your room!
Cut to Xander and Tally on the roof. Buffy is handing stuff to them from the ground and Dawn and Anya are sitting in chairs. Willow and Tara come around the back.
WILLOW: Hey guys!
BUFFY: (Surprised) Willow! (Goes and hugs her)
TALLY: (Smiles) Hey guys! (Waves from the roof)
Xander and Tally climb down.
TALLY: (Runs up to Willow and Tara and hugs them)
TARA: So, what happened? Something of the demon variety?
TALLY: Um…well…it’s a funny story.
BUFFY: Yeah, very funny.
DAWN: It’s not that funny.
ANYA: Not as funny as the park. (Stops) ‘Cause you know, the park is full of trees and…why are you guys back?
WILLOW: We decided to come home a few days early. We missed everyone, but that still doesn’t answer the question of ‘what happened’.
XANDER: Um…well.
TALLY: Dawn and I fell through the roof.
TARA: What?!? Are you ok?
BUFFY: Oh, yeah. They’re fine.
WILLOW: What were you doing on the roof?
DAWN: (Looks at Tally) Star gazing.
BUFFY: Yeah, right, and I’m a famous movie star.
TALLY: We were talking.
ANYA: That’s not what I heard.
DAWN: (shoot’s Anya a ‘shut up’ look)
WILLOW: (Picks up on this, face turns a little red) Um…so…you have to fix the roof, huh?
TALLY: Yeah, kind of.
BUFFY: Yeah, she does.
TARA: Well, then presents from Hawaii will just have to wait.
TALLY: Presents? Oh, I want presents!
WILLOW: Fix the roof. Then we’ll be all witchy- Santa for you guys. (Winks)
BUFFY: Yeah…and no…um…’talking’ while you do it!
DAWN/TALLY: (Annoyed) Buffy, stow it!
BUFFY: So, sue me. I don’t want to hear about my sister’s ‘talking fest’.
TALLY: Ok. Where do I file the papers? (Grins) Yeah…shutting up now. (Smiles)
TBC…
