Summary- Alternate universe where Buffy and Willow have finished their first semester at UCSD. During the long summer break, Buffy’s cousin comes to stay.
Notes – Ok this will probably suck and will be very cliché I guess but hey. And well it was gonna be fluffy bunnies but I’m not promising un-angst anymore, but there may not be umm well anyway, thoughts are in < >
Previously…
They both sat for a while, waiting to hear the other hang up.
“One of us should go.” Tara said eventually.
“Yeah we should.”
“Yup, I’m going.”
“Me too.”
They sat for a few more moments before Tara spoke again, “So about these dreams…”
… … … …
Tara rubbed her sleepy eyes and yawned loudly as Buffy entered the kitchen. The slayer whistled as she moved over to the fridge to get some juice. She noticed the sleepy blonde sitting by the breakfast bar, “Hey, did you not sleep last night?”
“Umm, no not really.”
Buffy sat opposite Tara and finished chugging her juice, “Is everything okay?”
“Yeah, just a restless night I guess. So you seeing Mike today?” Tara asked in the hope of getting some alone time with a certain redhead she had been talking to till the wee hours of the morning.
“Nope, I have been abandoning my bonding time with you, so today it’s just you and me.” Buffy said before patting Tara on the hand happily.
Tara forced a smile, “Great.”
… … … …
Willow managed to drag herself out of the shower after nearly falling asleep standing in it. < Well what would I rather have…a good eight hours sleep, or a conversation with Tara. Well I would rather have other things with Tara to keep me awake. >
Willow smiled as she thought of the blonde. She had been talking with her all night and still she missed her, she missed her every second she wasn’t with her. < What am I going to do when she leaves? > Willow shook her head of those thoughts. She was going to make sure she savoured every last second she had with Tara.
After she was dressed, Willow picked up the phone and dialled Buffy’s number in the hope that the slayer was with Mike and she would find Tara alone.
“Hello?” Buffy’s voice asked on the other end.
Willow’s hope crashed to the ground, “Oh hey Buffy, thought you would be with Mike today.”
“No not today. I have been kind of abandoning Tara so I thought I better do the whole bonding thing.”
“Oh okay.”
“But if you want to get together…” Buffy started.
“No it’s alright, I’ll speak to you tomorrow.” Willow said before hanging up. She didn’t mean to be so snippy with Buffy, she just felt guilty about getting in the way of Tara and Buffy bonding. < Well she did come all the way over here to see Buffy, it makes sense that she would rather have Buffy time than Willow time. > This thought began to depress Willow and she decided to overload on sugar rather than sit and mope.
… … … …
< I have never been so bored in my life! > Tara sat next to Buffy watching a Dawson’s Creek re-run. Buffy was bawling her eyes out over the familiar ‘I love you so much’ scene between Joey and Dawson. Tara had tried to follow the story line, but it was hard when every character talked like they had swallowed a dictionary.
Tara tried to stifle a yawn as Joey and Dawson launched into another one of their speeches. < What I wouldn’t give to be with Willow right now! No, that’s a mean thought. At least Buffy’s trying to spend time with me, well not too hard but still. I didn’t come all the way over here to fall in love with…> Tara’s eyes widened as she realised what she just thought. < Oh my god, I’m in love. I’m in love with Willow. I love Willow! > A huge smile graced Tara’s face as the realisation of what she felt for the redhead hit her. In truth, she had loved Willow from the first moment she clapped eyes on her, but she had never been able to be so direct about it before.
Buffy glanced over at Tara who was smiling widely, “Wow I didn’t think you would like it that much, its amazing isn’t it.”
Tara looked back confused and wondering if she had said those thoughts out loud, “Uh what?”
“Dawson's Creek.”
“Oh…yeah it’s um great.”
Buffy turned her attention back to the T.V < Why does she have to stay in tonight! > As if the higher powers had heard her plea, the phone rang. Buffy groaned at being interrupted from her engrossing program and reluctantly went to answer the phone, “Hello?” she asked more than a little pissed off. < If only she knew how many times she has interrupted me, she has no right to complain! > Tara briefly glared at Buffy.
“Buffy?” a male voice on the other end asked.
“Mike!” Buffy exclaimed happily.
Tara was doing an internal happy dance and prayed to every god that she could think of that Buffy would be leaving the house tonight.
Buffy hung up the phone after a very monosyllabic conversation with Mike, “Oh my god you will never believe…oh no Tara oops.” Buffy suddenly realised that this was supposed to be her bonding time with her cousin.
“What?” Tara prodded.
“Well I um, since mom is out and all, I kinda invited Ken over here.” Buffy said guiltily.
“Oh no you should totally have him over here!”
Buffy was surprised that her cousin was not at all pissed off, “Are you sure, well you can stay here or…”
“I’ll go over to Willow’s!” Tara finished.
… … … …
Willow was lying on the couch upside down, watching Sabrina and occasionally commenting on how unrealistic some scenes were. She flipped herself into the proper position when her head started pounding with the overflow of blood. She flapped her arms on the couch, wondering what to do with herself.
“God, everyone is having sex but me!” Willow shouted to the empty room. < Good job my parents aren’t here. >
Willow flicked the channel over and saw Dawson and Joey declaring their undying love for one another. This would usually make Willow flick the TV back over straight away and moan about how much it sucked not having someone. < Guess its not so depressing when you have someone to love. >
Willow knew she was in love with Tara, she had known since the moment she met her. But getting the guts to actually tell the blonde was a whole other thing. It would either be followed by ‘I love you too’ or ‘That’s nice’. In Willow’s experience, it was usually the latter.
Willow heard the phone ring and dived over to answer it, “Hello?”
“Hey Will its Buffy.”
“Oh hey.”
“Okay don’t shout at me, I know I am an evil mean person, but I said I would go out with Mike tonight so would you…”
“Spend time with Tara, sure!” Willow finished.
… … … …
Willow ran around like a mad woman, making sure she and her home looked perfect. She was checking her hair for the millionth time when she heard a knock at the door. She opened it and was greeted with the most beautiful sight in the world.
Tara smiled as she saw the person who had invaded her mind all day, “Hey.”
“Hey.”
Willow motioned for Tara to step inside and the blonde obliged. As soon as the door was shut, they hugged each other tightly and said in sync, “I missed you so much.”
They both giggled and pulled away from each other. Tara leaned forward and captured the redhead’s mouth with her own. They both groaned as their tongues met and swept over the other. They had missed this so much and the pent up need from their previous conversation was beginning to be released.
When the finally broke apart Willow breathed, “Wow…can you greet me like that all the time?”
“Definitely.”
Willow was about to say something else when she heard her tummy growl loudly. Tara giggled, “Hungry?”
“Yeah, I couldn’t stop thinking about a gorgeous blonde all day, so I didn’t really have a chance to think about eating.”
Tara pretended to be angry, “Who is she? I’ll kick her ass!”
Willow laughed a little, “You know there is only one blonde for me.”
“Britney?”
Willow rolled her eyes and decided to make her point clear by pulling Tara into a fiery kiss.
… … … …
After their not so brief make out session, Willow and Tara decided that they better go get something to eat. They decided to grab something from the double meat palace. They both shared equal looks of disgust as they viewed their meals.
Willow looked guiltily at Tara, “Sorry I can’t take you somewhere nice and expensive.”
“No this is great, who can beat a big dollop of grease and something that used to be a potato but is now just a…big stick of grease.” Tara joked, “Anyway, as long as I’m with you, anything is fine.”
Willow smiled and briefly squeezed the blondes hand, “So what do you want to do after this delightful meal?”
“I don’t know, what’s fun around here?”
“Well there’s nothing or umm…. nothing.”
“Well those are great choices.
“Oh, we could go bowling.”
“Sounds like a plan.” Tara said before finally taking a bite out of her burger.
… … … …
Willow finished tying the laces on her bowling shoes. She stood up and showed them to Tara, “The height of fashion!” she said sarcastically.
Tara laughed, “Mine too.” She said before glancing down at her own footwear.
They made their way over to their lane made sure that they had the rubber thingies in the gutters and put their names on the computer. Willow was to go first and she stood looking at the balls, trying to decide what all the numbers on them meant and how exactly she was supposed to hold them. Tara laughed as she watched Willow pick up a hefty bowling ball and quickly place it back down again, “Do you need a little help?” Tara asked and went to stand beside Willow.
“Um, which one means light?”
Tara checked the weight of some of the balls before handing one to Willow, “Try this one.”
“Fun!” Willow said when she managed to lift the ball easily. She moved over to the lane and swung her arm back.
“Um make sure not to throw it too…” Tara started but the redhead had already swung the ball forward. Willow watched in horror as the ball bounced off the lane a few times and landed in the lane next to them, “Hard.” Tara finished.
Willow turned to look at an amused Tara, “I didn’t know that was going to happen.”
“Well the point is to roll it down the lane, not throw it.”
Willow pouted and went to get another ball. Tara moved behind her and whispered in her ear, “I’ll help you this time.”
The blonde’s hot breath against her ear made it hard for Willow to form words and “K” was all she could muster.
Tara picked a slightly heavier ball this time and guided Willow to the edge of the lane. She placed one hand round the redhead’s waist, resting on her tummy. Her other hand was on top of Willow’s, “You have to gently roll it forward.”
“Uh huh.”
Tara smiled at the effect she was having on the redhead and finally gave the signal for the redhead to let go of the ball. Willow watched amazed as the ball rolled right down the centre and knocked down 6 pins, “See?” Tara asked into Willow’s ear before placing a few light kisses on it. Willow was trying really hard not the throw the blonde down on the lane and jump her.
Tara decided to stop torturing Willow and snapped away from her, “My turn!”
Willow turned to glare at the blonde, “And for that, I’m not going to let you win!”
The blonde let out a quick, “Pah!” before expertly moving her ball down the lane and scoring a strike.
Willow watched on in awe, “But I didn’t say you couldn’t let me win!”
… … … …
Willow and Tara held hands as they made their way back from the bowling alley, “So what does the magnificent winner get?” Tara asked.
“Well, no smoochies if she continues to rub it in.”
Tara laughed, “Okay okay I’ll let it go.”
“Well you better, cos I’d hate for you to see me mad?”
Tara smiled seductively at the redhead, “Hmm does it involve leather and a whip?”
Willow’s jaw nearly dropped at the blonde’s comment and she started to walk home a lot faster.
… … … …
The door had just clicked into the frame when Willow hungrily kissed Tara. Tara was very relieved that they didn’t have any teasing kisses this time as she really needed to have Willow right now. Willow started pulling at Tara’s clothes as the blonde did the same to the redhead.
They fell into the living room, ignoring the pain from hitting the ground. Tara feverishly kissed her way over Willow’s face, down her neck and to her collar bone, “My god Willow, you have no idea how much I missed you.”
Willow tried to enable some oxygen to her brain so she could reply, “Oh, I think I can guess.”
Willow dragged her nails along Tara’s back as the blonde sucked hungrily on the underside of Willow’s breasts, occasionally running her tongue along the erect nipple. Willow arched her back in ecstasy and tried to plea with the blonde, “Tara…please now…I need.”
Tara moved up the redhead’s mouth and kissed her furiously, dominating her mouth with her tongue. She impatiently pulled off the redhead’s panties and inserted two fingers into the redhead. Willow moaned in delight and returned the favour to the blonde.
Tara moved her mouth from the redhead’s to bite softly at Willow’s neck, moaning in ecstasy. Their thrusts were in sync as their thumbs flicked and teased each other’s most sensitive spot. Tara heard Willow moan her name loudly and felt the redhead begin to tighten round her hand. This brought Tara to the edge closely followed by Willow.
They lay their for a while gasping for breath. Tara rolled onto her side to breathe in the beauty of the redhead. Her chest was heaving and her body was covered with a fine sheen of sweat. < I love her so much. >
Willow turned her head to look at Tara and smiled at the blonde. Willow noticed that the blonde’s face was serious and she turned her body round to face her. She placed her arm round Tara’s waist and drew small circles on her lower back, “Is everything okay?”
Tara smiled affectionately at the redhead who showed so much concern for her that it made her heart swell. Tara ran the back of her hand down the redhead’s cheek then through the tousled copper locks, “I have to tell you something.”
Willow looked back worriedly, “What?”
“I…I love you.”
Willow looked back open mouthed. < Did she actually say that? Am I dreaming? > Tara lay there for a while, hoping for some kind of response from the redhead. When she received none she got up and began grabbing her clothes.
Willow’s brain finally kicked into gear and she halted the blonde’s motions, “What are you doing?”
Tara had a few tears falling down her cheeks, “I shouldn’t have said anything, I’m sorry.” < Stupid! >
“Tara.” Willow tried to get the blonde to look at her but she wouldn’t. She pulled the girl down to kneel opposite her and the lifted her chin up, “Tara, I love you, so much.”
Tara smiled and finally made eye contact, “Really?”
“Of course I do. I wanted to tell you but…I was so scared, I didn’t know how you felt about me.” Willow said as she ran her hand through the blonde’s hair.
“I love you so much Willow, when you’re not with me, it feels like part of me is gone.”
Willow smiled and kissed the blonde gently, “I feel exactly the same.” She kissed the blonde’s cheek, “I love you.” And then the other, “I love you Tara MacLay.” She finally met the blonde’s mouth in a kiss that spoke more than words could.
TBC - Oh, if you think that a bowling ball cant bounce…believe me…it can!!
