"H-hey. I...uh...I w-was wondering...since your'e probably getting tttierd of unpacking...th-that you might want some help?" Tara's stuttering figure stood in the redheads doorway.
"uh....." Willow stood there speachless. *she wants to help me? she ...wants to spend HER time helping ME?*
"O uh...if you dont...then i can gggo." Tara started to turn to leave.
"NO! ...i mean ...no...i...i would like some help. I mean if you want to help..well i think i need help...theres alot i have to do...but i dont wanna bother you with it...i mean ..." Willow's face was beginning to match her hair. "come in." Willow stepped out of the doorway and motioned the blonde to come in.
Tara's eyes went wide. * Omigod....she's letting me in?! Omigod Omigod Omigod* Tara stepped into the apartment.
"um...its very....dark?"
"yea..i guess i like dark colours...esspecially reds"
The walls and couch in willows house were painted a burgandy colour. The countertop was black marble, and the carpets were a dark biege. In the middle of the living room sat a glass fishtank/coffee table, and next to the couch was a glass top table and on it sat a porclin lamp. The entire right side of the living room was covered in boxes stacked on boxes stacked on boxes. Clothing hung out of the not entirely closed tops, and small knick knacks sat in the top ones.
Tara blushed furiously when she saw a box labled "undergarments" sitting nearest to her. "So! where do we begin?" she asked trying not to sound too suspicous.
Willow was staring intently at the blond. *shes in my house....IN MY HOUSE...Shes looking at my stuff...shes in my house!*
"willow?...." Tara was looking at the redhead who seemed to be staring at something in taras direction. *whats she staring at? ME!?*
"huh? O um...Over there..." she pointed to the left side of the stacked boxes. "umm...they are just random kitchen things in those..."
Tara walked over to the boxes labled "dishes and stuff". She had to watch where she stepped though, clothing and cardboard layed all around the floor. Tara craned her neak to see the boxes at the top of the pile. For a few seconds she pondered how to get to them, but was interrupted, when she felt every muscle in her body tense up. A small hand had touched her arm. Tara stood completly still.
"theres a chair over there if you need it." Willow hadnt realized that she had set her hand on the blond's arm, and wondered why the blond had suddenly tensed up.
"um....s-s-sure..." tara quickly got out of reach of the redhead, and headed for the chair. Willow watched the blonde walk off, and looked back at the boxes. She noticed her hand in the air, as if it was holding something.
*omigod...you SO did NOT just do what i hope you just didnt do...did you just touch her?! like...friggin stupid idiot!* Willows had shot down to her side when, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Tara walking back in her direction with a chair in her hand. *idiot...* She shook her head at herself.
"here ive got it" Willow took the chair from Tara and reached for the boxes. "stupid redheaded idiot..." she mumbled to herself.
"what was that?" Tara cocked her head to the side to try and shee the readheads face.
*did i just say that out loud?....!!!....* "O nothing...i was just saying that i wish i were a few inches taller...the guys that stacked these boxes were pushin Six-two at least." They both giggled sofly to themselfs.
"here let me help you with those" Willow handed tara the boxes, and steped down form the chair. "so...uh....where do these go again?"
"the kitchen" willow pointed her hand to the kitchen.
"o yea..." tara's faced scrunched up. "i knew that..." this time they both laughed out loud.
- A few hours later -
"WHOO!" Willow plopped down on the couch. " I honeslty didnt realise how much crap people have in thier kitchens! Its like....a whole new world in your cabinets and drawers." Both Willow and Tara laughed, and Tara sat down on the couch. She was exhausted too.
"I feel like.....a......goose..." Willow laughed and looked at the blond in an amused confusion.
"What?" asked the amused redhead.
"well ya know....gooses....geese have those necks....and well ...youre top cabinets are pretty darn high...and well...ya know....a goose" They both laughed. "or not....hey...whatever rox your boat.." They both laughed again. "Well ...me thinks i should get going....its getting late..." Tara checked her watch, and yawned.
"tis ten thirty all ready!" willow exclaimed in an "Irish" accent.
"yes 'me lady 'tis. 'Tis very late and 'me sleepin bed be waitin fer me. 'Me old waaarm glass 'O milk and 'me readin book tew."They both laughed agian.
"well i thank ye sir knight fer helpin me fight 'ye old dust bunnies to make me caslte liveable. And fer helping me climb 'ye old mountains of cabinets to put away 'me eatin stuff" Tara got up and gave an overly dramatic bow. Willow giggled and got up too. She held her hand out. Tara froze. *What is she doing?!...She wants me to kiss her hand?!* Willow again hadnt realised what she was doing...it was all just this whole subconcious muscle movement thing. She quickly pulled down her hand when she realised what she had done.
-akward silence-
"so uh...i..i guess ill see you l-later then?" Tara's lost stutter had returned. Willow fingered at her sleave.
"um yea...and uh..thanks again for coming over to help. You really didnt have to." Willow looked down at the floor in embarasment.
" I...I know i didnt....but i wanted to" She looked at the redheaded beauty standing in front of her, who had looked up and smiled in a return gesture of the statement. Tara smiled back. * God shes so....*
*beautiful* Willow thought.
"well ill see you later then?" Tara asked.
"yea...See ya"
Tara opened the door, and left with a wave and a smile, and stepped out. She heard thud on the wall, but diregaurded it, and went into her apartment.
Willow was leaning up against the wall. *God...I Know i love her now...* Willow and Tara walked to thier rooms and layed in thier beds.
That night, they each dreamed of each other.

and I'm really excited about where you'll take it. 
Awww Willow and Tara falling for each other over the summer, being separated after it, and then meeting again. 
Do we get to see how they met, or any flashbacks to the summer? 
Hehe, great update. The banter between Tara and Buffy - so good. Loved this:
Something i would do... 
- speaking from experience 
hehehe
and 
have a basic misunderstadning here no doubt fueled by their both being too shy and attracted to ask the simple "are you gay" question. I'm sure they will finally figure it out. 
but the journey to that will be fun.
