~Part 16b~~*~*~*
“Buffy, can I ask you a question?” Tori sat on the steps of Willow’s upstairs loft.
“Ya.”
“It’s about Dawn and I…are you really ok with us?” Tori smiled.
“Yes, I’m ok with this. But just because you’re not a boyfriend, doesn’t mean I’ll spare you the ‘If you ever hurt her, you’ll be answering to me,’ speech…got it?” Buffy patted Tori’s shoulder. “You’re beautiful and you make Dawn very happy, therefore, I’m happy.”
“Thanks.” Tori smiled. “And I wouldn’t hurt her, not intentionally anyways. I mean she’s…special.”
Buffy studied Tori’s facial expressions, every time Tori would smile, or frown, it was the mirror act of Tara’s and Hadley’s. “You know…if there were another older Maclay sister lurking around…you’d tell em right?”
“What?” Tori looked at her confused.
Buffy laughed, “I’m just saying you Maclay women are so damn beautiful, and it’s sad that I don’t get my own.”
“Well correct me if I’m wrong, aren’t you bunking with a certain little blonde?” Tori smirked.
“Hadley…Tori she’s five.”
“Yeah, true, but hey…she’s the best cuddler…ask Willow, she knows.” Tori smiled and went downstairs to join her girlfriend on the couch.
“Willow!” Buffy yelled, “Are you ready to go yet?”
~*~*~*~*~*
“So where are we heading?” Tara asked her girlfriend as they step out into the city streets.
“This club, it’s called ‘Next Town’, I go there when I actually go out.”
“You’ll like it Tara…it’s very similar to The Bronze.” Buffy smiled as she strolled along side the blonde.
“That’s good…except, I’ve never been to the Bronze.” Tara replied lightly.
“You’ve never been to The Bronze? I thought Willow was suppose to take you?” Buffy looked past the blonde and glared at her best friend. “Willow! You never took her?”
“It’s not her fault, she wanted to take me, but I didn’t really want to go anywhere at the moment.” Tara grinned.
“Yeah! So there.” Willow stuck out her tongue, and pulled Tara close to her. “I treat my girl right. Right?” She looked at Tara with a little concern.
“Yes sweetie, you do.”
“Willow, exactly where is this club?” Anya asked being dragged by Xander.
“Just a couple of blocks down. But don’t worry, we’ll call a taxi when we go home. Wouldn’t want gross pervs looking at my Tara.” Willow protectively braced herself against Tara’s. “I love my Tara.” She grinned. “Tara’s my love.”
“Are you talking to yourself again?” Tara asked placing a kiss on Willow’s temple.
“Hmmm…just having a little chat with my heart.” The red head smiled.
“Oh yeah…care to share?”
“Well you know, sometimes we just have these private conversations about life and stuff like that, only now, we involve a certain blonde goddess.” Willow looked ahead and saw the neon sign flashing ‘Next Town’, “There it is…see?”
Buffy squealed with excitement, “I so cannot wait to get in there and shake my groove thing.”
Everyone looked at her in silence, “What? Can’t a slayer throw down her responsibilities once in a while?”
“Sure you can Buff…just using phrases from back in 70’s is a little creepy, especially coming out of your mouth.” Xander nodded playfully.
“So…how much do you bet Willow will get hit on while we’re in there?” Anya asked quite cheerfully. “See, I could bet everything I own, and I’d guarantee that I’d still keep it and win all of your stuff too.”
“This is L.A. Ahn, people would hit on anybody.” Xander pointed out. “But they, we all know, Willow’s a model and gay…so…”
“Hey!” Willow scowled, “I’m right here! And yes, gay now, and I have a girlfriend thank you very much, so please stop making me your money game Anya, I’m not going to sleep with you EVER, and there will be no bet that includes me being hit on or otherwise.”
Tara eyed up the ex-demon, “You want to sleep with my girlfriend?”
“Yea…so?” Anya asked a bit peeved that Tara intervened. “I’d make money and then she’d pay me for satisfying her.”
“That sounds so…tramp-like. It’s like your trying to prostitute her.” Tara said with a serious tone. “Isn’t Willow your friend?”
“She is my friend, that’s why I suggested it. Besides,” Anya flipped her hair back over her shoulder, “I wouldn’t have to suggest it if you were putting out.”
“OK okokokokokok!” Willow yelled. “First of all…well, actually there is no first of all, Anya, I was on the verge of making love to my girlfriend earlier, when Xander sent Hadley to get us so we could be here. I don’t want to hear anymore about you and your moneymaking ideas ok? Why don’t you just charge Xander a buck or something every time he doesn’t satisfy you.”
“Hey!” Xander shouted.
Tara looked at Buffy and both blondes started to giggle, they noticed the rosy cheeks that flushed Willow’s face. “Breathe baby.” Tara whispered.
“I am…it’s just she makes me so angry, and she thinks that you’re not satisfying me…”
“I’m not.” Tara interrupted softly. “But we both agreed to take it slow, and it’s clear to the both of us now that taking it slow is impossible when we’re together.” Tara caressed her love’s face.
“I really wanted to make love to you earlier, but I also want it to be perfect…ya know?” Willow whispered.
“It will be, whenever, and wherever Willow…it will be.” Tara kissed Willow softly before heading towards the entrance of the club.
“Miss Rosenberg, my it’s nice to see out on a Friday night again. How’s the family back home?” A large bouncer greeted the red head friendly.
“Hey Spirit. It’s good to be out on a Friday again, and my family is fine, in fact half of them are with me tonight.” She turned around and gestured to her friends. “That’s Xander, and Anya, and you remember Buffy…”
“Sure do.” Spirit winked at the slayer.
“And last be not least, my girlfriend Tara.” Willow smiled.
“Beautiful.” Spirit shook the blondes hand. “I guess you all want to get in…” He undid the velvet rope and let the gang pass. “Have a great evening.”
~*~*~*~*~*
“Ok…now your turn.” Dawn laughed as Tori threw a pillow at her. The girls were playing a game of truth and dare, however, dare was left out, it wasn’t planned on being left out, but Tori and Dawn ignored the dares because learning the truth about one another was a great lesson. “You ask a question.”
“Alright,” Tori sank back into the couch hugging a pillow. She thought about a good question, but then pondered it, thinking that it might be a question left for another day. But she needed to know. “Dawn? You know when we went to Sunny Ville’s for lunch Wednesday, and Todd asked you to the Welcome back dance?”
Dawn nodded her head slowly, knowing very well where this was heading, but she let the brunette continue.
“You said you had a date…I was just wondering who…you know, that was.” Tori looked down at the red carpet. “Sorry, I shouldn’t have asked.
Dawn smiled and slid off the couch so she was kneeling in front of Tori. Grabbing her hands, Dawn caressed them softly with her own. “Tori, I was going to ask you tomorrow while we were at the dinner for the Pre-Award show, but hey, I can do it now. Tori, would you like to be my date for the Welcome Back dance?”
“Really? I mean, yes, but…really?” Tori drew her lips into a thin line.
“Yes, really. I don’t know how things will go at the dance, and frankly I don’t care. Did you actually think I had another date?” Dawn asked a bit curious.
“Kind of…sorry.” She gave Dawn an apologetic look.
“”No, don’t be sorry, I don’t think I would’ve went with Todd anyways, regardless. “I think…” Dawn paused and sat herself right next to Tori on the couch, “If you weren’t my girlfriend…I would’ve asked you anyways.”
Tori grinned from ear to ear, “Well it’s lucky I fell for you, I would’ve said yes, and spared you the hurt of rejection.”
“Well thank you Victoria.” Dawn kissed her girlfriend tenderly.
“I like the way you say my name…all princess like.” Tori pulled back, and smiled.
~*~*~*~*~
Inside the club it was packed with clubbers and bar waitresses. Neon lights flash around up on the dancing stage, and people were dancing on speakers. Xander and Anya went straight to the dance floor, Buffy decided to join them after settling down in a seat with Tara and Willow. People walked by the red head and smiled, or waved as if they knew her personally.
“Willow Rosenberg right?” A female in her early twenties came up to her.
“That is me…” Willow smiled warmly. She loved people who were her fans…although it was a little creepy knowing that they were a fan of her body and such, she had two calendars out, one was a swimsuit, and the other was pictures of the places she travelled to.
“My friends over there,” The woman pointed to a table where everyone waved back when Willow looked their way, “We were kinda hoping we could get a picture of you and your autograph.”
“Um,” Willow looked at Tara, “How about in a while?”
“No, go.” Tara whispered in her ear. “I’ll be right here.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes, now go you sexy thing.” Tara squeezed Willow’s hand gently.
“I’ll be right back.” Willow said as she got up and followed the woman to her table.
Tara sat watching Willow make introductions and small talk. She saw how friendly Willow was with strangers, strangers that look at her everyday in their magazines or whatever else they have. Willow laughed with the gang, as if they were old friends, which brought a smile to Tara’s face. Watching Willow like others, even though she didn’t have the slightest clue who they were.
“Hey there.” A male voice brought Tara out of her thoughts and looked into grey eyes.
“Oh, hey.” Tara smiled and turned her attention back to Willow.
The guy followed her gaze and noticed the model. “Admirer I see.” He smiled. “I think you might have to get in line, a lot of people scope out celebrities when they come to L.A. clubs, and a lot of people recognize Willow from the last issue of playboy.” He chuckled.
“Playboy huh? It was just a centrefold, and she was covered.” Tara smiled at her answer.
“So you like porn.”
“No, I love Willow.” Tara answered as a matter of factly
“Obsessive?” The short stocky built guy asked. “My name’s Brian. Can I buy you a drink.”
“Uh…” Tara bit here lip when she saw her girl bend over to pick up a pen. The way those jeans cupped her ass perfectly. “No, I don’t like to drink all that much.”
Brian followed her gaze, “Wow…I wonder if I have a chance with her.” He said laughing. “What do you think?” He asked Tara.
“Um, I don’t think you’re her type.” Tara said.
“Right, because she’s gay right?” The guy looked back over at the red head. “She probably doesn’t even know real pleasure, I mean with her ex girlfriend, I don’t think they were all that sexually attracted to each other…I could be wrong though. But I, however, can please that piece of candy any day.”
“Excuse me…” Tara looked at the guy, “Did you really want something, or are you just trying to piss me off?”
“Feisty are we? I knew I came to the right woman.” Brian sat down beside Tara. “You never told me your name.”
“This seat is taken.” Tara said a bit harshly. < I can’t even picture my girlfriend with a creep like this… >
“By who? Your imaginary boyfriend?” He snickered.
“No…by my girlfriend.” Tara looked back over at Willow, who seemed to just finish signing things and saying bye.
“Riiiiiiight!” Brian laughed. “Please, you’re not one of those crazed celebrity fans who stalk them at clubs and pretend they’re with you, are you?”
“Can you just leave please.” She asked a bit annoyed.
“Fine, but you’re dreaming if you think Willow is your actual girlfriend. Because sorry to say this…she IS with me.” Brian stood up and watched as the red head made her way towards them. “See? She’s coming right to me. I knew she wasn’t gay.”
Willow looked at the guy funny, < Why the hell is he grinning at me like that? > she smiled warmly at him and said hi.
“Hey babycakes, my car’s out front did you want to head out?” He asked casually.
Willow stopped and looked at him confused, and a little worried for him. “No thank you.” She smiled again and made her way to Tara’s lap. She plopped herself down and wrapped her arms around the blondes neck. “I plan on leaving with my girlfriend.”
Brian looked at the two women in shock. “Great, I just made an ass out of myself in front of two hot chicks…I so lost my touch.” He mumbled as he scurried off.
“What was that all about?” Willow asked a bit amused at Tara’s smug smile.
“Oh, he was just trying to prove to me that you were in no way a lesbian.” Tara smiled wider.
“Well that guy is so wrong, because I…” Willow pulled Tara closer, “am a self declared breast-gal.”
“Mmmmm…” Tara closed her eyes when she felt Willow gently brush her hand over the side of her breast. “Why don’t we just skip the whole club scene, head home, and have a little party of our own.” Tara whispered.
“How about we dance a little first?” Willow kissed Tara and got off her lap, extending her hand out for the blonde.
~*~*~*~*
“My name’s Kira.” A small black hair woman sat beside Buffy on a stool at the bar.
“Buffy.” The slayer shook her hand.
“This is my first time in L.A…my friend came with me, but I can’t find her.” Kira shyly said.
“Yeah, my friends are up on the dance floor.” Buffy smiled.
“Why aren’t you up there?”
“I was…but I kind of got thirsty.” Buffy warmly smiled at the black haired woman. “First time huh?”
“Uh yeah, see I’m from New York City, so I can deal with the whole crazed crowds in clubs and stuff, but my friend left me to go to the washroom that was a little over ten minutes ago, and this being a new place and all, I’m a little intimidated.” Kira spoke softly.
“Yeah, I’m from this small town so big crowns are usually scarce in my social life. But I used to live hear six years ago…so, I kind of know the area.”
Kira looked at Buffy, she really looked at the slayer. “Do I know you?”
“Um, nope, don’t think so.” Buffy sipped her drink.
“Yeah…Buffy sounds familiar, you look familiar.” Kira said excitedly.
“Well…I am best friends with Willow, and last year there was a picture of me with her in a teen magazine.” Buffy said quite proudly.
Kira thought for a moment and searched the club. “No…I don’t think that’s it.” She wondered.
“Kiki!” A voice shouted at the other end of the bar where people were crowding her. Kira turned around and saw her friend waving her over down to the other stool.
“Oh, gotta go, my friend found me.” Kira jumped off her stool and smiled at the blonde. “It was nice to meet you…”
“Likewise.” Buffy looked down at the bar to see if she could catch what her friend looked like but no one was standing there. “W…ait.” Buffy sensed something in her stomach, a very familiar vibe.
~*~*~*~*
Tara’s body slithered against the other woman’s from behind. Her hands grasped Willow’s waist and spun her around. The fast tempo music and the sexual tension pumping though the blondes veins, worked her into a frenzy. All she could think about was grinding against her girlfriend, and of course Willow was not one to complain.
Willow watched as Tara went down, and felt her butt be firmly cupped. Tara grinned when she felt the other girl go weak. Her face was staring right into Willow’s secret haven, slowly she inched her way back up the red heads body, but planted kisses along the exposed tummy and back up to Willow’s waiting lips.
Willow let her thigh go in between Tara’s as they danced, but dancing would longer be what they were doing, the crowd cheered as the two women continued to dance…yes, a trend they now started everyone followed their lead, as Willow and Tara quickly moved into the dirty dancing phase.
Buffy watched her friends get their groove on. She was surprised when she saw Tara make the first move to throw Willow leg over her hip and dance. < So not the shy single mother I thought she was…just hope Tori isn’t like that… > Buffy smiled to herself.
Anya was getting a bit warm on the dance floor, and she saw that Xander was a little to much into his best friend dancing then he should be. “That…” She hissed as she pointed to his pants, “Is for me only! Understand? Now give me a dollar.”
“A dollar?” Xander asked.
“Yes, you never satisfied me…and you’re all turned on?” She whined.
“Fine...here.” He dug in her pocket and gave her a dollar. “Can we dance now?”
The song finally ended and the crowd had sweat up a storm. The dance floor was crowded with couples. Willow and Tara let go of each other, breathing heavily, Willow whispered into her girlfriend’s ear. “It’s time to go home.”
Tara smirked. Licked her lips and did a little happy dance inside. “Lead the way.”
Willow was to busy watching Tara lick the fine moist of her upper lip, she didn’t even notice that she was about to crash into someone.
“Hey.” A female voice said sharply.
“Oh my, I’m so sorry.” Willow turned around and found herself face to face with a long hair, dark brown eyes. “Faith?”
~*~*~*~*
Did I mention sorry about the mini-lil-cliffhanger?
...sorry?
Hope you enjoyed…the next part should be up later tonight. No promises though.
