~Part 22b~~*~*~*~*~*~
“Should I pull my hair back?” Dawn asked breaking away from Tori’s kisses.
“Nope…” Tori smiled and started to kiss Dawn again.
“But won’t it bother you?” Dawn interrupted again.
“Dawnie…are you ok?” Tori asked, breathing a little heavily.
Both teenagers lay on Tori’s bed hands holding each other closely and Tori had Dawn’s blouse undone while her own shirt was thrown to the other side of the room, leaving her in her blue laced bra. They’ve taken a step that both girls felt were needed at the point. But with Dawn pulling back every now and then, Tori knew she was nervous, and she didn’t blame her. Tori’s never done this either, so they’re just going by instinct.
“I’m fine.” Dawn breathed. “Aren’t you cold?”
Tori grinned and played with the undone buttons on Dawns blouse. “Nope, kinda hard to be cold at this point.”
“But you have goose bumps again…” Dawn stopped and looked into Tori’s eyes, she saw the grin that Tori was wearing and realized that her girlfriend was not cold at all. “Oh…my doing?”
Tori nodded her head licked her lips. “We don’t have to Dawn, it’s fine really. I just love holding you like this, with some skin contact.”
Dawn bit her lip and realized that she was laying on top of Tori with her blouse open and her bare stomach was touching Tori’s warm bare stomach. It made her tummy do flip flops inside knowing that they were only a few clothes away from full body flesh on flesh contact. “Oh wow…look at this…me, you, together…alone…”
~*~*~*~*~*~*
Tara opened her front door as fast as she could and allowed Willow in first. She found herself pinned against the door and entangled with Willow’s tongue and wondering hands. “Willow,” She brought her hands to the slim shoulders and pushed her away a bit, “Can we close the door…”
Willow looked at her a bit puzzled then realized she pinned Tara to the door even before they had a chance to close it. Grinning like a little kid she let Tara peel herself off of the door and closed it. Turning back towards Willow she pulled her close and kissed her eyelids, eyebrows, cheeks, chin and finally her lips.
Backing Willow up the stairs Tara figured she could be multi-talented and kiss her girlfriend while being both of their eyes to see their way up the stairs, but Willow’s heel didn’t make it quite high enough and she fell backwards pulling Tara down with her. Without really breaking the kiss they both started to giggle at the situation, laughing like they were the schoolgirls doing this for the first time.
Finally getting back on track, Tara lowered herself onto the red head but making sure that she didn’t use all of her body weight. Her mouth found Willow’s in a gentle kiss, one that was soft, and pure. Her hand cupped Willow’s cheek before sliding down her throat and down to her stomach, resting it there.
Willow let her hands paint patterns up and down the blondes back as their kiss deepened. Tongues met in a friendly hello once again as breathing became another issue. “Bed…”
Tara pulled back and nodded her head, her cheeks were pink and flushed, and her eyes were dilated with arousal. “Bed…” She agreed.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Tori breathed heavily as she felt Dawn’s hand make long torturous trails on her stomach and her mouth sucking on her pulse point. Definitely where she wanted to be. Here in Dawn’s arms in her embrace. Having this beautiful woman love her back just as much as she loves Dawn.
Dawn made her way back up to Tori’s precious mouth and kissed her passionately. When she pulled back she allowed herself to look into those big hazel eyes and smile. “You know, I could stay like this forever and make love to your eyes.”
Tori giggled and squeezed her girlfriend closer. “Make love to my eyes?”
“Yeah…I just stare and get lost in them.” Dawn said still studying the hazel coloured eyes, “Like I’m making love to your soul.”
It took Tori at least ten minutes to coax Dawn into taking her blouse off so that they were even, but once Tori let her fingertips graze over the outline of Dawn’s breast, convincing was no longer an issue when Dawn sat up and took off her blouse throwing it carelessly away from them. “Well as long as we’re making love…” Tori’s eyes twinkled as her hands played with the bra clasp every now and then.
Dawn giggled and lowered herself down on Tori’s body as she nuzzled her head into her girlfriend’s neck, placing tiny kisses there before resting her head still. “You have a purple love bite.” She grinned.
“Wonder why?” Tori giggled. “Shall I return the favour?”
Without warning, Dawn felt herself be flipped on her back, she let out a small squeal as Tori did so, but was stopped by Tori’s lips on hers.
~*~*~*~*~*~*
Tara stopped her oral kisses to Willow’s neck when they approached her bedroom door. “Did you hear that?”
Willow screwed her face up in a confused look, “Uh, Tar…all I could hear was you panting.” She grinned.
Tara swatted her girlfriend and looked down the hall, “I’m serious, I heard something…listen…”
Again they heard a faint…squeal…no, it wasn’t a squeal, it was too low for a squeal, again they heard it…a moan.
“Yeah, heard that one twice…” Willow said getting herself into defensive mode.
“It’s coming from over there…” Tara pointed towards the end of the dark hallway. “Maybe the closet…”
“Or Tori’s room.”
“Tori’s not home…” Tara said looking down at the bottom of the stairs to see if she could see her sister’s purse or coat.
“Well we should check it out.” Willow swallowed taking Tara’s hand and slowly inched their way down the dark hall.
Nearing Tori’s bedroom door, they both stopped and strained their ears to listen. “I guess Tori is home.” Tara whispered as the muffled noises became a bit clearer. Her hand found the doorknob but Willow’s hand stopped hers.
“What are you doing?” Willow asked cautiously.
“Willow, my sister is in there with Goddess knows who…being the adult I have to check it out…” Tara did the courtesy of knocking softly. She could hear words being whispered and a rustling noise of two people flying off the bed and finding their clothes. “Tori…you in there?”
“Damn...Uh…just a minute.” Tori yelled pulling her shirt back over her head and waited for Dawn to do her blouse up. She gave an apologetic look towards her girlfriend and opened the door to find a very flushed Willow and Tara, for a moment it was looking in a mirror seeing the redness on the cheeks and hearing the shallow breathing getting back to normal. “Tara…Willow…wasn’t expecting you home.”
“Well The Bronze was all…yuck, so we decided to come back early…you know, busy day tomorrow, it’s Thursday and all…” Willow babbled.
“Oh, so you mean you picked up Hadley already? Because she must be really beat if she didn’t come banging on my door like she does every single night before going to bed.” Tori grinned.
“Yeah, well…” Willow tried to think of a comeback but nothing popped in her mind until her eyes landed on Dawn and found her blouse done up totally incorrectly and the three love bites that stood out clearly on her neck, “…Dawn, you um, you should try looking in the mirror when you do your blouse up next time and you might want to where a scarf or turtlenecks for a while.” She pointed to Dawn’s neck.
Tara looked at Dawn, who blushed and turned many shades of red, then back at her younger sister, “Tori…what were you two doing?”
“Studying?” Tori bit her lip and smiled innocently.
“Wrong, try again.” The blonde raised an eyebrow.
“Oh come on Tara…if you were my age and you met Willow and fell in love, you can’t stand there and tell me that you would only go too second base and no further…because we both know that you would in a heartbeat, you would make love to her…” Tori said pointing out the obvious to her sister.
Tara was the one who blushed this time, she didn’t know why but hearing Tori say hers and Willow name in the same sentence with lovemaking, it was a bit different. Not only that, she just heard flat out that, that’s what Dawn and her were about to do, make love. But can anyone blame them?
Dawn looked at Tara standing there all speechless, then towards Willow who looked around Tori’s room, she shook her head and apologized. “Sorry Tara…maybe we shouldn’t be doing this…”
“What? No Dawnie, don’t say that. We should be, and we would be if we didn’t get caught.” Tori grabbed Dawn’s hand and held it close to her heart. “I wanted to, I want to, we shouldn’t let two grown-ups scare that away…it just means it can’t happen tonight.”
Dawn agreed silently and pulled Tori in for a hug. “Next time we’ll get this right.” She whispered in Tori’s ear before placing a feather light kiss on it.
Willow felt bad for the two teenagers, she was right there with them, standing in the same boat and desire flew through her veins and heat ran down to her stomach and beyond. She wanted Tara so bad, but knowing that wasn’t going to happen tonight, she had to settle for a long cold shower when she got home.
“Well maybe I should go and get Hadley now seeing as we’re home.” Tara said smiling at the two teenagers as if to say ‘I’m sorry’, before walking out with Willow to the hall.
“Yeah ok, I’ll come with to walk you home.” Tori stopped Dawn at the door and undid her buttons, “I think you need these done up properly,” she let her fingers graze the warm skin of Dawn as she did up each button properly. After she was finished, she let her hands fall down to the tiny waist and pulled her in for one last long kiss. “I love you.”
~*~*~*~*~*~*
Hadley was on the couch watching the Cartoon Network and holding her yellow crayon to her chest. She lifted her head to see Buffy curled up behind her, nuzzling her tiny neck watching the cartoons with her.
Mrs. Summers let Hadley help her with baking cookies, now they were in the oven and she couldn’t wait until she got try some. They baked chocolate chip cookies and Hadley was even allowed to sneak some chocolate chips when Mrs. Summers wasn’t looking, her and Buffy both misbehaved behind the oldest Summers back.
“Miss Hadley, I do believe the cookies are done, they’re just cooling off now.” Joyce came in and smiled, she had her camera and snapped up picture of her oldest daughter and the young Maclay on the couch together.
“Yippie!” Hadley giggled and sat up. “Buffy the cookies are reading.” She excitedly bounced.
Dawn came through the door with Tori right behind her followed by Willow and Tara. “Hey mom.” Dawn said as she ran upstairs with Tori. < I have to find a turtleneck. Totally forgot mom was home. >
“Hey ladies, how was your evening?” Buffy stretched and walked over to the happy couple.
Hadley already managed to latch herself onto Willow’s leg in a matter of seconds. Willow looked down at her new attachment and giggled, “It was good.”
“Mama…can Willow sleep over again?” Hadley asked pressing her cheek into Willow’s leg looking up at her mama.
“Willow can sleep over whenever she wants.” Tara laughed.
“So you must be the Tara that people are talking about…” Joyce extended her hand out towards the blonde. “I’m Joyce.”
“Nice to meet you.” Tara shook her hand.
“Yeah, this is my girlfriend…” Willow beamed proudly, “And what do you mean about people talking about her?” She worried.
“Relax Willow, I just meant that Hadley talks about you two, Dawn talks about you, Buffy…it’s finally nice to meet the Tara that stole everybody’s hearts.” Joyce smiled sweetly. “You two want to come in? Buffy, Hadley and I baked a batch of cookies, you could come in and have some if you want.”
“Thanks Mrs. Summers, but I should really get Hadley to bed.” Tara smiled warmly and ran her fingers through her daughter’s hair.
“Oh that’s fine, just give me a second so I can wrap some up for your way home.” Joyce turned into the direction of her kitchen.
“So what’s the deal…why did Dawn rush upstairs?” Buffy whispered after her mom was out of earshot.
“Love bites, needs a turtleneck…” Willow grinned.
“Willow? Are you staying over again?” Hadley asked her eyes shimmered.
Willow looked up at Tara guiltily, “Actually, I think my house misses me, I haven’t been there for a week, only to grab Brady her food, so I think I might head home.” She picked up the pouting little girl.
Tara understood Willow all to well, even though she was disappointed because Willow going home means no Willow snuggles, she just understood that the red head felt a little guilty because if she did stay at Tara’s, then they would be having fun, while they broke up Tori and Dawn’s, that’s just the way Willow was and Tara felt the same way. Plus, everyone who was at Tara’s that night needed one hell of a cold shower. “But you’ll see her again tomorrow.” The blonde smiled at her daughter.
Hadley sadly nodded her head and rested her head on Willow’s shoulder.
“Here you go.” Joyce came in and handed a container of fresh homemade cookies to Tara. “Hadley made them mostly, she’s such a bright and fun loving kid.”
“We know.” Willow smiled a mile wide as she rubbed Hadley’s back.
Shortly after talking for a couple of more minutes, she heard soft steady breathing and realized that Hadley was out like a light.
“Guess that’s our cue.” Tara looked at Hadley and smirked. “Thanks Buffy, and Mrs. Summers for taking care of her.”
“Oh don’t mention it, we had a blast.” Buffy smiled. “In fact, can we do it again? I kinda like having her around…it feels like a whole different world altogether, one without the big bads.”
“Most definitely.” Tara smiled at the slayer, “Tori!” She softly yelled.
Tori and Dawn came down the stairs together and had big grin on their faces, “Yeah?”
“Time to go.” Tara softly said. “You’ll see Dawn at school.”
“Ok…bye.” Tori had to settle for hug from her girlfriend. “Bye Mrs. Summers, bye Buffy.”
“Bye.” All three Summers watched as the others made their way down the path to the sidewalk before closing the door.
“Where are you going?” Buffy asked Dawn as she watched her sister race up the stairs again.
“Uh…shower.” Dawn smiled lightly and took off.
Buffy’s eyes went wide, finally realizing that Tori and Dawn had came in the house flushed, ran to upstairs, came back down wearing grins, and now Dawn had to take a shower… “DAWN!”
Joyce watched as Buffy ran up the stairs to her little sisters room. “Gotta miss those kids.” She whispered heading back into the kitchen.
~*~*~*~*~*~*
“Are you sure you don’t want to spend the night?” Tara asked Willow as the approached The Maclay’s. “I mean, you’re already here and all…”
Willow smiled sadly at her girlfriend. “You know I’d love to baby, but I shouldn’t. I think I’m just going to head home and have a long cold shower then crawl under the covers and dream of you all night.”
Tori smirked and took Hadley from Willow’s arms to go put her to bed. “Night Willow.” She said over her shoulder.
“Night.”
“Yeah, I need a shower too…damn I wish I didn’t hear that noise.” Tara cursed herself. “We could’ve been in my bed…”
A mischievous grin pulled at Willow’s lips, “Tomorrow…I promise.”
“Ok…I can’t wait.” Tara laughed and pulled Willow in for a heated kiss.
Breaking the kiss, Willow placed a finger on Tara’s full lips and smiled, “Night, I love you.”
Sighing, Tara just nodded her head, “I love you too.”
Willow kissed her one last time before taking off down the street, leaving a sad and frustrated Tara on the porch.
“Time for that shower…” The blonde shut the door behind her and made her way to the bathroom. “Tomorrow, you had better arrive early!” She whispered.
