Is it love?

Postby SeeXthroughXme » Sat Jun 04, 2005 1:52 am

Feed back is greatly appreciated and some stuff is changed up a bit in this story if you can tell now, or will soon be able to tell… Everything is completely AU… Nothing really the same except some stuff.. Willow and Tara and everyone are not mine, their Joss’s. But please sit back and read and enjoy.. If you can :-D


Title: Is it love?

Chapter 1

Willow woke up in a bad way this morning. Instead of just normally hitting the alarm when it flashes 7:30, someone had moved it and everything at that and she fell right off the bed, definitely waking her up. She poked her head out of the covers that covered her head and saw Buffy rummaging through the whole room.

“Um, lose something Buffy?” Willow asked with a confused look on her face.

“Yes, I can’t find that one ring Angel gave me. You know the one with the heart and the… hands” Buffy replied while throwing clothes everywhere, and a shoe hitting Willow’s head in the process.

“Ow” Willow said while rubbing her head. “Well Buff, have you looked in your pocket?”

“What?!? Of course Will, I mean I may be stupid but you know I’m not - ” She didn’t finish her sentence because she reached in her pocket and felt a small ring in there. Willow smiled very smugly and happy with herself.

“Oh, don’t even say it Will.” With that Buffy got all of her books ready and walked out of the room.

Willow finally got up from the floor, and started to get ready. She had a class at 8:30, but always liked going to the Espresso Pump before she started out her whole day. So she got ready and collected all of her books and walked out of the room, shutting the door behind her.


Meanwhile Tara was awakening in her own dorm…

‘Goddess I never wake up this early… But I did and still do have the craving for a mocha’ She said to herself pulling herself out of bed. She got up and looked at herself in the mirror, eyes widening. ‘Wow, talk about bed hair’ as she poked at the ‘thing’ on her head that she swore was alive. She got ready and collected her books as well and walked out of her room to the Espresso Pump for how she like to call it ‘chocolate goodness’.

Later at the Espresso Pump………….

Willow got there faster then usual cause she had an extra craving for a mocha today then usual. She ordered her and got it impeccably fast too and got a good seat for once. Everything was really just going her way today, minus the falling out of bed segment. ‘Everything is just going really go-‘ she thought to herself but her thoughts stopped as she saw a blonde woman walk into the store. ‘Wow, she’s.. uh… wow’ Willow sat practically drooling and goggling over her. ‘Ok stop before she sees you and thinks your some kind of freak’ Willow cursed herself but still took little peaks here and there while she was ordering.

Tara looked around and there weren’t any seats left, she didn’t feel like drinking it on the go either. Her breath caught her as she saw a red goddess sitting by herself at one of the tables. ‘Goddess she’s beautiful’ Tara stood there not hearing anything but her thoughts, but was soon ripped out of them by someone bumping into her and knocking her books out of her hands and getting a little mocha on her shirt. Willow saw this happen and without thinking got up and went to help the blonde woman. She started picking up some of her books reading the titles while doing so, and seeing a lot of books that she herself owned, on Wicca, and everything. That made her just want to know this beauty more.

“A lot of people here can be jerks you just have to watch out for the extra jerky ones.” She smiled faintly at the blonde and just as Tara looked up at the same time and their eyes met. Both their breath’s caught.

“Yeah, g-guess I just f-found one of the ex-extra one’s” Tara cursed her stutter and stood up with the red head as she handed her, her books. “Th-thank you.”

“Its nothing really, well hey there aren’t any seats left, you can come sit with me if you’d like.” Willow told her ‘Whoa whoa whoa, what are you doing you psycho! She’s going to run away right about… now’

“Well I d-don’t want to intrude, if y-your m-meeting someone here.”

“Nope not at all, no one meeting here. Nope all alone, that is unless you are joining me” Willow smiled at her, ‘What am I doing? Flirt much?”

“Oh, ok then.” As Willow guided her back to the table that she previously sat at. There was a silence until she broke it. “Im T-tara, by the w-way” She smiled and offered her hand out across the table.

“Willow” She smiled and took Tara’s in hers, feeling something, not sure what just something. They both felt it.

Chapter 2


Willow and Tara had talked for what seemed to them, hours. They had talked getting to know each other, to both likings. Finding out their both students at USC. They had talked on and on about just stuff that they like. They were getting to know each other when something pulled them out of, what seemed to them, as wonderland.

“Willow!”

Both girls stopped mid conversation and looked at who was yelling Willow’s name. Willow saw her friend Buffy come over to their table and stop.

“Hey Will, I was so bored being cooped up in that room, so I decided to come out and meet new people, you know, mingle.” Buffy looked Tara’s way. “Hi.”

“H-hello.” Tara mentally cursed her stutter once again.
“Oh Buffy, this is Tara. Tara this is Buffy.” Willow introduced them. “I just met Tara a little bit ago, she’s really cool.” Willow continued on as Buffy looked at Tara a bit skeptical.

Buffy tried to whisper into her friends ear but not that much of a whisper. “Oh, is she a cool friend, or just a friend?” She said nudging her friend in a mocking way, as Tara heard this she smirked and Willow turned so bright red that she just looked at her shoes.

Tara felt so bad for her new friend but it was also very cute seeing Willow blush like that. ‘Wow, she is so amaz--- Wait did Buffy just hint to her being gay?.... If she is its my lucky day. Maybe she was just mocking her. And if not, why would someone as beautiful as her fall for you, honestly’ Tara continued on in her head and stole a glance at Willow.

All the while Willow was thinking also in her head. ‘Oh my god, what if she gets Buffy’s tease and she find’s I’m gay and she run’s away. I just met her I want to get to know her more, but wait. She’s not up running yet, maybe she is also. No, no possible way. And if so, she could never like someone as nerdy as me, she is so beautiful’ Willow continued babbling on in her head.

“Well Will’s as much as I would love to sit here and watch you two blush and stare at each other.” Buffy smiled and both girls looked down “I think I’m going to go walk around here and ‘mingle’ I’ll catch up with you later, bye.” Her friend waved and walked off leaving the table at a silence.

“Sorry about my friend, she’s, eh.. Uhh.. Well no really explaining her she’s just ‘different’.” Willow tried explaining her friends appearance and acting.

“N-no, it’s ok. She s-seemed r-really, exhilarated.” Tara said with a half smile as Willow looked at her goggled eyed.

“Wow…” Willow barely said aloud but in a high whisper tone.

Tara blushed at Willow’s little mind slip and looked down towards her feet. Willow in the mean time was beating herself up inside for making that slip.

“I r-really should get g-going. I h-have a test to s-study f-for.” Tara said getting up.

“Oh, ok… Well I’ll see you around sometimes then?” ‘Great job, you scared her off now.’

“Well” Tara got out a notebook, wrote something, and tore it off. “If you w-want to get together s-sometimes again, you c-can call me.” Tara handed the piece of paper to Willow. ‘Desperate much?’

Willow took the paper and smiled. “Definitely.” Willow got up also. “I’ll call you later then?”

“Y-yup. I r-really should get going though.”

“Yeah, cause you have to go study. Not that you ‘have’ to study because I’m sure your just as smart on your own. Not saying that you need to have help by someone your quite capable of being amazing on your own… And I’ll just shut up now, you should really stop me when I do that. It’s a habit.” Willow put on a fake smile and looked down.

‘She called me amazing?’ “N-no, I think it’s c-cute.” Tara smiled, blushed and looked down all at once. Willow looked back up at her and smiled. “I really s-should go now, b-bye.” Tara said and walked off out of the café.

‘She called me ‘cute’.. wow.. Well ‘c-cute’ to be exact. Her stutter is so adorable. I really need to call her tonight. Wait would that be pathetic. No no, it wouldn’t. It could be, intriguing ness. ‘Cause I’m intrigued by her? No, what is she some kind of experiment. No, I’ll call…. I’ll call.’ With that Willow also walked out of the café heading back to the dorm, to hopefully find Buffy. Get some words of encouragement, and gripe her out for embarrassing her like that earlier.

Title: Is it love?

Chapter 3



The next day Willow was pacing her room just staring at the phone. She didn’t know if she was actually going to do it or not.

“Willow, your starting to make my nauseous, just pick up the damn phone and call her already.” Buffy said, throwing the cordless at her.

“Ow… No, these things take time.” Willow said throwing it back at Buffy and dropping the paper. Buffy glanced at it just as Willow did. Buffy dived at it and ran around the room as she dialed the number. “Buffy, don’t!” But it was to late Buffy mouthed ‘it’s ringing’ and threw the phone at Willow. Willow was just about to hang up the phone when she heard Tara’s voice.

“Hello?”

Willow got a scared look on her face as Buffy was making stupid faces at her urging her on to talk.

“H-hello?”

Willow finally picked up the phone and said something.

“Hi.”

“Willow?”

“Yup, it’s me. Sorry I didn’t hear you say anything. I mean I did but didn’t say anything cause I was nervous, not like ‘ah it’s Tara’ kind of thing. Cause I wouldn’t be scared of you, you know just one of those things that y-” Willow tried to babble on but was interrupted by Tara’s voice.

“Willow, it’s ok. I get it” Tara replied laughing a bit

Awkward silence for a little bit….

“So, whacha doin?” Willow asked. ‘Gah, could you sound any more like a loser?’ She thought to herself.

“Nothing r-really, just, you k-know.. Sitting here, you?”

“Same, just figured I call you ‘cause, you know, having your number and all. So I figured what the hey.”

“W-well, glad you d-did then.”

“Yeah?.. Me too.” There was yet another silence and Willow decided to break it again. “So I was wondering, if you… maybe…. wanted to go get a cup of coffee sometime today or tomorrow, or you know, both?” Willow asked with a sound of hope in her voice.

Buffy was motioning to her friend a curious thumb’s up while waiting to see her reply.

“I say both. If y-your sure it’s ok-k though?” Tara said with a slight jump in her shoes this time.

“Well yeah silly. I mean I did ask, didn’t I?” Willow laughed causing Tara to also laugh. “So does 5 work for you today?” Willow had a huge smile on her face which cause Buffy to throw her hand’s in the air and silent scream.

Tara glanced over at the clock that showed it was 3:41. “Yeah that’s great.”

“K, so I’ll see you there then. Bye Tara.”

“Bye Willow.”

Willow shouted a bit and then jumped on her bed doing a little victory dance. And jumped whenever she still heard Tara’s voice and fell of the bed falling onto the floor with a loud thump. Buffy the whole time was holding back a huge laughter.

“Uh, Willow. You ok?”

Willow was stark red by this time and fumbled with the phone to try and get it up to her ear and actually say something.

“Uh, yeah.. I uh… Saw a spider.” Willow lied.

“Oh, ok-k. See you later then.” Tara replied trying not to laugh to hard.

“Yup, see you later.” This time Willow made sure she hung up the phone correctly and stuffed her face in the floor. “Ahhhhh, I can’t believe that just happened.”.

By this time Buffy was rolling on the floor laughing so hard. Willow saw her and threw a pillow at her.

“Hey!” Buffy explained.

“Hey what? Your laughing at me I had the right to throw something at your head.”

“Ha, Will I’m not the one that fell of my bed here.” Buffy said still laughing.

”Yeah, yeah.” Willow said getting off the floor and picking up her pillows that fell with her.

“I love being right.” Buffy said while also getting up.

“What?”

“What did I say? I told you she would more and likely want to hear from you and that you guys would meet up again” Buffy replied with a huge smile on her face.

“Well then for once I love you being right, Buff.”

“Well I’m going to go out to see if there’s anything new with Giles. You in?” Buffy said grabbing her bag and heading towards the door.

“Yeah, just let me get my bag.” Willow replied heading over to her desk and got her bag. “Let’s go.”

Both of them headed out to Gile’s house.

-- At Tara’s house after they hung up --

‘Wow, that girl is something special. Was it me or did she get all excited just over me saying yes?.. Hmm, I hope. That would be a definite plus then.’ Tara glanced over at the clock. She could only wait till 5 to see Willow. But until then she was going to find something to distract her and so she pulled out her key’s and headed out.
