“Sweetie, you ready to go?” Tara asked.
Willow nodded from where she was seated on Tara’s bed, but made no move to get up.
Tara finished putting on her shoes and looked up at her new girlfriend.
“What’s wrong honey?” She asked.
Willow sighed, “It’s nothing.” She answered.
Tara moved over and sat beside Willow.
“It must be something. And even if it isn’t, seeing you unhappy makes me unhappy. So I think you should just tell me.” Tara said, smiling.
Willow smiled back at her.
“It’s just that…I don’t think I can tell my mom Tara. It’s not that I’m ashamed or anything, I swear, it’s just that, my mom freaked out when she found out I was dating a musician, so I don’t know what she’s gonna say when I tell her about us.”
Tara leaned forward and kissed Willow gently.
“If she did have a problem with us being together, would that change your feelings for me?” Tara asked.
“No, no of course not!” Willow answered.
Tara smiled and kissed her again.
“Ok, how about we wait a while before we tell your mom, and instead tell your friends, how does that sound?” She asked.
“Great, you’re the best girlfriend ever.” Willow said as she kissed Tara.

Xander, Anya and Buffy were all gathered together round a table in the ‘Espresso Pump’.
“So, what do you think this big news that Willow has to tell us is?” Xander asked.
“I don’t know, but whatever it is it must be important.” Buffy answered.
“There she is.” Anya said as she saw Willow walk towards them with a blonde girl.
“Hey guys” Willow said as she approached the table.
“Hey, so what’s this big news then? And who’s your friend?” Xander asked.
Willow turned to Tara, “Guys, this is Tara. She’s my girlfriend.
“Girlfriend? Since when?” Buffy asked.
“Since yesterday.” Willow replied.
She turned back to her girlfriend.
“Sweetie, this is Xander, Anya and Buffy.”
Tara raised her hand up and waved, “hey”, she said shyly.
They all smiled back at her.
“So, when did you two meet?” Anya asked.
“Well, we actually met when we were kids, but we met up again yesterday.” Willow said.
“Wow, that’s great Will, I’m happy for you guys.” Buffy said honestly.
“Me too.” Xander added, and Anya nodded her head in agreement.
Willow and Tara sat down on the empty chairs at the table.
“Thanks guys, I just hope my mom is as understanding as you.”
