Fic - The One Where Everyone Has a Go

[Taras Shadow]

I am so loving this! . I like the comfort Willow brings to Tara when she's scared. nervous, and so on. It's just so...comforting myself. And Tara's nightmare, wow...I know how those go. But I have my 'Willow' (sometimes) to hold me...when she's with me. I hope Charlie's ok. And I just can't wait for the next update!

Willow: We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know... insane.
Tara: I said quirky.

[SlayerTazz]

YIPES - talk about a scary nightmare...wow...all in favor of getting rid of Mr. Maclay - raise your hand **raises both hands** I loved the update and Willow comforting Tara was great.



Can't wait to see where this goes next...very interesting!!

Poor Tara having that awful nightmare of that brute. I'm so glad that Willow was there to console her.

Wonderful update Piper!

Joining the chorus of 'I hate Mr Maclay'. Tara's nightmare was awful, but at least she had Willow to look after her.

So Tara has a younger brother!

Look forward to next part!

Author’s note: YAY for smoochies.







Chapter 15

By: Jennifer







Willow’s brow furrowed. She was slightly taken aback by this. “Your brother?”



Tara frowned, realizing she hadn’t told her friend that she had any siblings. “Y-yeah, Charlie.”



“A-and he’s coming here?” Willow pushed for clarification.



Turning her body sideways, towards the redhead, Tara searched the other girl’s eyes. “Um…he needs to get away from the house. My f-father h-h-hit him…” her voice trailed off, eyes misting with tears.



“Shhh, it’s okay.” Reaching forward tentatively, Willow gently touched the blonde’s cheek with her fingers. At the contact, she felt Tara shiver, a soft whimper escaping her lips. Pushing forward, the hacker’s fingers snaked through the golden locks and slid down her back, slowly pulling the girl into her waiting arms.



Taking in a deep breath of air, the blonde let herself be pulled into the other girl’s arms. She wrapped her arms around the lithe waist and held on tight. The tears she had been holding back, now slithered down her cheeks.



“It’s okay. I’ve got you.” Willow gently rocked Tara and comfortingly rubbed her back.



“No, it’s not. H-h-he… he. Why does he do that, Willow? Why does he hit? Maybe I d-deserved it. Maybe I…” no other words were heard, as the redhead pulled back somewhat and held her index finger to Tara’s full lips.



“Tara, no. No one deserves to be hit; no matter the reasoning’s or not, behind it. Please don’t say that.” She took her finger away and cupped her cheek. Running her thumb back and forth over the soft plane of flesh there. “I can’t see why anyone would want to hit you or even think it. He’s insane.”



“But I…” Letting her eyes drop from Willow’s green, she looked down at the bedspread covering their legs. “I was bad. I’m evil and disgusting,” she sobbed.



Gritting her teeth, the redhead had to physically restrain herself from using the words that were boiling to the surface, regarding the blonde’s father. ‘How can she even think that? There is nothing disgusting about her and she’s certainly not evil. No. Evil is something… evil and… disgusting, which she is so not. I wish I could…’



Tara started to pull away from the redhead, when she didn’t say anything. ‘Oh Goddess, she agrees with him. S-she thinks I’m…’



Feeling the other girl moving away from her, Willow snapped out of her thoughts and brought herself back to the present, back to Tara, who was trying to extricate herself from the current situation.



The blonde didn’t get very far, when she felt a strong hand gripping her own. Stilling her movement, she looked down at the redhead’s fingers that were enclosed around her shaking digits. Closing her eyes, she exhaled sharply before looking up into the other girl’s eyes. What she saw there was acceptance. Only acceptance. No hint of disgust or fear, which she had been sure she would find. No, none of that. Tara found sadness and ‘Love? Could that be…’ she thought to herself.



Squeezing the hand in hers, the hacker defined her features into a determined resolve face, as she started to speak. “Tara Maclay, there will be no more talk of evil and disgusting when describing you, okay? The only person, who I would consider to be disgusting, is the person who would have the nerve to say that about you.”



Tara’s heart smiled at the other girl’s choice of words, but still the haunting words of her father reverberated in her mind. “But I’m… h-he said…”



“Tara,” the redhead’s voice warned. “No. Whatever he said to you is not true. You’re not evil or disgusting.” She shook her head, but smiled and brought her hand up to her friends face, tracing the contours of her skin with her fingertips. “You’re beautiful, caring, and kind. My heart skips a beat every time I see you a-and you’re…” she paused, looking into the blue pools searching hers.



“I’m what?” the blonde whispered, when Willow didn’t continue. Her eyes briefly closed, her face humming from the other girl’s touch.



“Mine?” Willow asked hopefully. She smiled when Tara opened her eyes and silently answered her question. “And no girl of mine, is anything more than beautiful. I…” taking a deep breath, she steeled herself for whatever reaction she would receive next. “I…I love you, Tara.”



Tilting her head, her eyes immediately opened and searched the redhead’s. “You… me? Really?” She couldn’t believe her ears. The blonde never imagined that anyone like Willow would ever love her, let alone want to spend time with her.



Nodding, the hacker spoke from her heart. It was only one word, but it seemed to sum up every other word she could have used. “Yes.”



“Oh, Willow I… wait, what about, Oz?” She asked the question that she had been thinking about since Oz had came to see Willow.



The redhead flinched at the name of her boyfriend. ‘Ex… ex-boyfriend,’ she corrected in her thoughts. Searching her brain, she tried to come up with the right words to describe how she felt. “Tara, I love Oz… I do, but… I’m not in love with him. I don’t think I ever was.”



“Cause it’s okay if you are. I-I hope that you will be very h-happy,” the blonde said, dropping her head and looking away from Willow’s soulful eyes. A brief moment passed, before a hand cupped her chin and pulled her vision back around.



Letting out the breath she hadn’t realized she’d been holding, the hacker looked deep into Tara’s eyes, trying to get her to understand. “I am. I’m happy with you.”



Bringing her hand up, she tucked a few strands of red hair behind the other girl’s ear. “I’m happy with you, too, Willow.”



Willow uncurled her fingers from around the blonde’s chin and pushed it around to behind her head, sifting her digits through blonde hair. She started to massage her neck there, as she leaned in, their lips inches apart. “I love you,” she promised.



Smiling, a tear rolled down her cheek. “I love you, too. I know I-it’s a little soon to be admitting that, but Goddess, I do. I love you, Willow Rosenberg.” Tara declared her heart’s deepest emotion.



Smiling brightly in return, the hacker slowly closed the remaining distance between them and gently brushed her lips against the blonde’s.



The kiss was so brief that Tara could barely comprehend that it had happened. She whimpered when the other girl pulled away. With a frown, she whispered, “More?”



Willow leaned in again, applying a little more pressure this time to Tara’s lips. The redhead felt the other girl’s hand caress her cheek. She let their lips linger before pulling away again.



The blonde’s eyes had closed as soon as the second kiss had begun. When she opened them again, she took in the sight of her friend grinning at her. Her thumb passed over Willow’s ruby lips. Pursing her mouth to speak again, her voice still came out as a whisper. “Willow?”



“Yes?” the hacker breathed.



“Ca-can I have one more?” Tara asked, hopefully. Stilling her thumb’s action, she waited anxiously for a response.



“Hmm… I think that can be arranged,” she replied. Licking her lips, Willow leaned in, stopping a hairsbreadth away from her goal.



Taking matters into her own hands, the blonde witch pushed both her hands into the redhead’s hair. Fingers gripping the back of her head, she pulled her in, their mouths fitting together tightly. Tara’s approach was somewhat more aggressive then she had planned for, but alas, it got her lips where she wanted them to be.



Not being able to help herself, the redhead moaned. “Mmmm,” she moaned appreciatively.



“Mmmm…yes,” Tara agreed, without taking her lips away. She felt the other girl’s arms wrap around her, begging her to move closer. She complied, but reversed the situation.



Not one to disappoint, Willow allowed herself to be pulled. However, she didn’t stop her movement forward once she was fully in the arms of the blonde. She kept moving, until Tara had no choice, but to lay back.



“Willow,” she breathed into the kiss. Pulling her legs up, she maneuvered them so one was on either side of the other girl’s body, the bottom of her feet resting on top of the mattress. Tugging her girl with, she lied down. Tara’s hands left the red locks and wrapped around the hacker’s back.



Willow stilled her decent downwards, once her elbows touched the bed. She didn’t want to rest all of her weight on top of the blonde, for fear of being too heavy.



Tara started to protest when she couldn’t fully feel her girl against her. “Willow… don’t s…” she began, breaking the kiss.



Looking into her eyes, she spoke, interrupting the other girl. “Tara, I don’t wanna be too heavy.”



“You’re not,” she answered and pulled the redhead completely down onto her. This time, it was she who moaned, when their breasts pressed together. “Mmmm…”



“Feel something you like?” Willow teased.



“Uh huh,” Tara answered.



“You sure about that? Cause I can…”



“Willow?” the blonde interjected.



“Yeah?”



“Kiss me?” Tara asked, but it came out more as a plea.



Her heart skipped a beat, but she didn’t hesitate. “For as long as you’ll let me,” Willow promised, bringing their lips together.



The kiss was soft, gentle, and spoke of a passion that was continuing to grow between both girls, as the days passed by.



“Love you,” Tara whispered into Willow’s lips.



“Love you, too,” the redhead whispered back.





*****





“You ready for this, B?” Faith asked the other Slayer, as she quietly opened the door to the secret entrance into The Initiative.



“As ready as I’m gonna be. We go in, find the info we came for, than leave.” Buffy started to go in, but the brunette grabbed her arm and turned her back around.



“Faith, what are you…” no other words were heard, as Buffy felt a warm mouth press against her own. She started to struggle, but her body quickly gave in and was about to wrap her arms around Faith’s back, when the brunette suddenly pulled away.



Gazing into Buffy’s eyes, she spoke to the blonde’s confusion. “In case one of us is caught, I didn’t want to never have done that.” Leaning in, she kissed her once more before disappearing through the door.



Buffy stood dumbfounded, momentarily. Then shaking her head, she swiftly moved after the other girl. “Faith, wait…”

Jennpurr that was a great update. How could it not be with W/T smoochies

Anya: Anyway, I took the money from working for Giles, then I tripled it.

Tara: Triple? Like first money, then money, money, money?

Anya: Yes, I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope

[foreverpiper]

AWSOME! Absolutly freckin brilliant! I loved it! All with the comfort and the I-love-yous! Loving the B/F thing too! And the smoochies! *swoon* you rule!



Now who's up next...?

Two updates! I've got to get on here more often.



Piper: Great update. Wow, that was some nightmare. Scary to say the least. And Willow was there for her. That was sweet. I like the adding the Charlie. The more, the merrier. But you left it dangling. An evil thing to do (I like it )



Jen: Great job. Tara revealed her fear and Willow accepted her for it. And leading to smoochies? Now, who would complain there? Loved the B/F scene. Seemed like such a Faith thing to do.



And now we're going back to the masters of this idea. Nath, far cry from where you started, huh?

"That was just rude. Now I forget what I was saying."

[SlayerTazz]

Jennpurr: Let me start by saying talk about hot and sexy smooching between W/T and that Buffy/Faith twist...wow. Amazing update!! I think someone needs to teach Mr. Maclay a little lesson I don't like him at all.



OMG, we've gone thru everyone already...wow - Nath my friend you are up!! Oh poo, I'm after Nath...ideas, gotta get ideas...

Willow: We can come by between classes. Usually I use that time to copy over my class notes with a system of different colored pens. But it's been pointed out to me that that's, you know... insane.

[spazz07]

Wow Jen, didn't wanna make it any harder for me did ya Great part, i loved the confessions of love and the sweet tender smoochies between W/T.

Tara22,



Hey there. Don't you mean, Jen?



Thank you. I'm glad you loved this part. You know, you'd never be able to tell that I live for W/T smoochies, would ya? Hee... YUM!



Glad you liked the Buffy/Faith thing, too. I was kinda worried about that to be honest. I always thought there was some subtext between them. It's too bad we didn't get to see anything.



umadamber,



Thank you. Glad you liked it. Hee... W/T smoochies are a must, I tells ya. Gotta have those.



Hey, your sig, what is that from? I'm just curious. That is so funny.



Piper,



Hey you. Thanks, sweetie. Glad you thought it was awesome. It was nice taking a little side trip and writing this part. Need to get my other muse working again though. Darnit! Grr...



You don't think the, "I love yous," were too soon, do you? I didn't, but then that's just me. I thought it was time Willow said it to her.



You're making me blush, girl. Thank you, I'm glad you think I rule. I don't think so. There's far better writers in this thread than me. But, I appreciate it. Glad you liked the Buffy/Faith spin.



Celia,



Hey, you. Miss stranger. Where you been? Hmm??



Glad you like the update. Thank you. I don't think Tara should ever fear whether Willow is going to accept her or not. Poor girl, but this was just how I pictured this happening. Hee... and had to have the smoochies.



Another vote for the Buffy/Faith scene. You guys are the best. Thank you.



Branny,



Hee... I got a drooley smiley. Why thank you, hon. Makes me happy. Glad you found the smooching sexy. It's what I was going for, that and the awwww affect.



WOW... one more vote fro B/F. So glad I didn't take that out. I almost did. And I agree. Someone does need to teach Mr. Maclay a lesson. The bastard.



Thanks again, sweetie.



MissQuirky,



Hee... thanks. Glad you found it amazing. I sound like a broken record here, but... Thanks for loving it.



Yes, Mr. Maclay=bastard. I think Buffy should go find him and teach him a lesson. Grr...



You guys are so sweet. Thank you.



Nath,



Awww, I sorry about that. Hope it won't be too hard for ya. This just kinda flowed. Thanks for letting be a part of this awesome fic, dude.



Thank you for finding the smoochies tender and sweet. That is sooo the affect I was going for. Score one for Nath. YAY! Hee...



You were gonna turn Faith evil? Please, don't?? Of course, it's up to you what happens with her next. I just thought it was time to give her a break from her bad rap.



Can't wait to see where you go with this next. Thanks.



iceprincess2076,



Thanks for that wow, Ice. Glad you found it to be that way.



*Sigh* Willow and Tara smoochies. Wouldn't you just love to be stuck in a dream land with those two.



Thanks, again.



barnabasvamp,



Awww, thanks love. But, master of smoochies? Really? You're so sweet. You guys are gonna make me cry. Thanks for finding this romantic. Exactly what I was going for.



And you are very welcome for the update. Thanks for reading this part. It was fun to write.





I just... Love you, guys. You made a very crap-filled day at work, worth the time. Coming home to these replies... Thank you, very much. Glad you all liked it.



Nath, Can't wait for yours.



Jen       





Edited: Cause Trinity snuck in there while I was posting.



Trinity,



Awww... Thank you for that compliment.



Hee... glad you liked the F/B twist. So glad I didn't delete that part. Thanks for the feed and for reading my part.



And I agree... what's better for a slayer?? Another slayer.



Okay... I'm off to read Triscuits update now!



Thanks, guys.

Part 16, Then you had to ruin it all by doing something stupid like get captured.



Buffy followed Faith through the door, no sign of the brunette anywhere. Buffy searched the room frantically; sewer pipes and drains were everywhere, the sound of dripping water, adding to Buffy’s panic. Everything had happened so suddenly, one moment Faith’s lips were on hers and just as quickly she had vanished. The conflict of emotion that bottled through Buffy’s head at the moment paled in insignificance to the need to find the dark slayer. For all Faith had done in the past, she seemed their best shot at rescuing Tara’s mother from the clutches of the underground military that were operating on her best friend’s college campus.



“Faith, Faith! Where the hell are you?” Buffy shouted out with a touch of anger and desperation. She was worried, wondering if Faith had suddenly got cold feet on going goodie, goodie or weather she was in actual danger. Either way didn’t sit well with Buffy.



… … … …



“Mmmm, you know I could get rather used to this position.” Willow giggled from atop her girlfriend, quickly planting another sharp, intimate kiss on Tara’s luscious lips.



“Good, cause then I wouldn’t ever have you apart from me if we stayed like this forever.” Tara smiled, running her fingers through Willow’s copper locks, brushing them out of her eyes. Willow relaxed her head onto Tara’s shoulder as the two snuggled close together, the thin layer of clothes was the only barrier keeping them apart, and both knew that at this rate, they wouldn’t be there for long. Suddenly a knock at the door jolted them out of their daydreams about each other momentarily.



“Go away!” Tara managed to yell out without moving a muscle.



“Tara!” The voice came from behind the door, upon hearing it Tara sat bolt upright, gently moving Willow to the side who stared at her girlfriend with confusion.



“Charlie!” Tara yelled back through the door and bolted to let her little brother in, Willow smiled as she saw how happy Tara was to hear her little brother’s voice through the door. Tara sprinted to the door, a big smile plastered on her face as she flung the door open. Suddenly her smile turned to a look of complete terror as her father stood before her, tightly clenching her younger brother’s arm.



“I’m sorry Tara.” Charlie barely whispered out of his mouth, his tone full of sorrow for leading his father to his older sister.



… … … …



Faith awoke in a small room that was barely ventilated at all. She was sitting in a chair with her arms and legs securely tied down. She tried to break free with her slayer strength but found it to no avail. She decided her best course and really only course of action was to wait and see what happened, hopefully Buffy would come and save her she hoped. Though she was a little afraid that maybe the kiss might have scared her away.



She noticed a dim light coming in under the door and heard a few muffled sounds coming from the room beyond the door. She wondered what was going on and who was out there. It didn’t take long for all her answers to be answered.



“Faith, Faith, Faith or Ruby was it?” Riley entered the room shaking his head. Faith turned her head in disgust at her one time fling whilst she worked with the initiative.



“What the hell do you want?” She spat at him, obviously not impressed that he was her captor.



“Now after you left you must’ve known it was fool-hearty to come back here, perhaps you just couldn’t get enough of me.” Riley smirked, bringing her eyes to meet his before she jerked her head away.



“If every part of you was as big as your ego I might not have left.” She smirked back, hitting the soldier below the belt.



“Still got a mouth on ya, pity about that.” Riley’s tone was now less impressed and he suddenly wasn’t in the mood for games.



“We know it was you who let the wolf out.” He stated, circling the dark slayer like a lion waiting to make the final kill.



“He was a friend, important to someone I know.” Faith shrugged as she fessed up to the earlier break in.



“It matters not, we have enough demons to make the master species complete without him.” Riley stated as matter of fact.



“So, you still don’t have the witches.” Faith spat out the honest truth.



“Ah, but we have the mom, the witches will come.” Riley’s evil smirk filled his face.



“Maybe, that girl I was here with, what did you do with her?” Faith shifted the direction of their conversation to Buffy.



“Left her, a pointless human girl means nothing to us.” Riley shrugged; he had taken note that she didn’t have any magical properties and was indeed human when he’d noticed her. Why she was there in the first place was beyond him, much to his displeasure, Faith started giggling.



“Buffy, you just left her, you’re a dead man.” Faith’s grin spread from ear to ear and just frustrated Riley even more.



“Why, what’s so special about her?” Riley asked, more than a hint of worry lined his voice.



“She’s a slayer.” Faith smirked back at him.



“Can’t be, you’re the slayer.” Riley relaxed a little, calling her bluff.



“Take it for what you like, don’t say I didn’t warn you when she comes through busting heads, namely yours.” Faith just shrugged and relaxed back into the chair, a knowing smile spread across her face. Riley was torn, he wasn’t sure what to believe but he wasn’t about to take any chances, he turned around and pulled out his walkie-talkie.



“Alpha group, this is command do you read?” Riley nervously talked into the radio. He waited and nothing, he tried again.



“Alpha group, this is command do you read?” Once again silence filled the airwaves and beads of sweat started to trickle down his face and neck. Suddenly the radio started crackling and he tuned it in to get a response, suddenly feeling a little more up beat.



“This is command, go ahead Alpha Group.” He gave the directions into the walkie-talkie.



“You’re a dead man.” A female voice came through the radio as Riley gulped in a lung full of air.



“Told ya so.” Replied a smirking Faith.



… … … …



“Daddy, what are you doing here?” Tara shrieked as the burly overgrown man lunged at her. She was quick on her feet and dodged his attack, the first one at least.



“Those army men have offered me a nice little sum if I turn you over like you’re devil mother, its where you belong you hell-spawn.” Tara’s dad made another lunge at her, this time grabbing hold of her arm and violently jerking her towards him. Suddenly Tara felt her dad’s hold on her relax as the giant man stumbled slightly then fell to the floor in an almighty crash.



Tara looked up to see her girlfriend standing there holding in her hand a large hardcover book that she’d obviously used to knock him over the head with. Charlie, ran over to his older sister and swept her up in a giant embrace, truly sorry that his father had forced him to do what he did. Tara held him in a loving hug, knowing that it wasn’t his fault and that it would all be okay.



Willow stood over the lifeless body, totally amazed at what she’d just done, but when she’d seen him go after Tara, something inside her snapped and that was it. No one, not even her father was going to lay a hand in anger on her beloved no matter what and she was going to make sure of that. Willow bent down with two fingers to take the man’s pulse, to check to see if she’d really killed him or if he was just sleeping.



TBC…
