rainbowwriters@hotmail.com“Thanks Buffy, call me tomorrow.” Willow called as the Slayer waved and ducked into the elevator after helping the witches get up to Tara’s apartment with the leftovers from their day at the beach. “Goddess she is so going to be in pain. I don’t care if she’s the slayer. She looks like a lobster.” The redhead giggled as she moved inside and shut the door.
“I’m sure her mom will have something to take the pain out of it.” Tara said as she took the picnic basket straight through to the kitchen. “Moms are great at that, they always have just the right stuff.”
“Yeah I’m sure...” Willow turned down the small hall and emerged into the kitchen to join her. “Oh baby!” She squealed as she watched Tara flick long hair over her shoulder. “Does it hurt?”
“Does what hurt?” Tara frowned when she heard Willow’s squeak.
“Your back.” Willow moved forward gently easing the scoop neck of the blonde’s tank-top down and shifted the strap of her swimsuit over. “I don’t think it’s blistered yet.”
“Oh!” Tara looked at the sharp contrast of her pale stripe of skin compared with the bright red of the rest of her shoulder. “Ow.” She added as she began aware of the heat in her skin.
“I can’t believe my baby block 56 didn’t protect you... it always keeps me from burning see.” Willow stuck up her arm in comparison. “Now that’s not a good sign.” She frowned as she noticed every single one of her freckles appeared to be standing at bright attention on her skin.
“Oh Willow.” Tara looked at the supposed comparison.
“They usually only do that just before...” She gave a nervous smile.
“It’s ok, I think I have After Sun.” Tara gave Willow a quick kiss on the forehead and dashed through into the bathroom.
“But I put on my baby block.” Willow began inspecting herself only to find that every patch of exposed skin was flush with pre-burn freckles.
“Did you put it on every hour?” Tara’s voice called through accompanied by the sound of her rooting through cupboards.
“Yep just like the label says, and after being in the water.” Willow called back moving to put the dirty dishes and cups from the basket in the dishwasher.
“Did you?” Tara called back. “Even after the Xander thing?”
“Yes.... well no... I was too busy trying to find the lifeguard.” Willow frowned to herself knowing they’d stayed out in the sun at least three hours after that. After all it had only been a tiny jellyfish sting and ice cream had made Xander feel tones better.
“I can’t find it in here. Sweetie can you look in the kitchen?” Tara called sounding a little frustrated.
“Let me see.” Willow turned to the long row of drawers and began searching before moving empty-handed to the cupboards.
“I knew renting a whole apartment was a bad idea. Too much room to loose things.” The blonde Wicca walked back into the room though she had now only had a towel wrapped around her chest.
“Sexy girl.” Willow grinned and left the cupboard open as she moved towards the blonde.
“Burned girl.” Tara gave a frown.
“Oh... sorry.” Willow gave a sheepish smile. “I can’t reach the top cupboard.” She pointed over the stove.
“No, no don’t be sorry.” Tara moved closer to her lover. “Kisses might help.”
“Kisses where?” Willow leaned in.
“Well my lips aren’t burnt.” Tara smirked.
“Mmmmm nice lips.” Willow kissed her lover slowly. “Yummy lips.” She agreed with herself and kissed Tara again. “And you’re hot.” She grinned dreamily as their kiss ended.
“I have to find the After Sun, I can count over thirty Willow freckles on one shoulder.” Tara frowned deeper and leaned back. “I think it might be in the bedroom.” She found herself grinning as she moved away from the distracted redhead.
“I meant both hot sexy and temperature hot love.” Willow blinked away her lusty thoughts and followed Tara down the hall.
“It’s in a clear bottle, it’s watermelon scented. Do you remember it being in the bedroom?” She glanced over her shoulder.
“Do you always get hot when you get a sunburn?” Willow questioned.
“Mmmmm only when...” She looked a little nervous and then turned back round.
The hacker knelt down, yelping under her breath as she pulled the skin on her soon to be red legs. Blindly she was feeling around under the large double bed.
“Only when?” Willow retrieved a lost sock and a cat toy before reaching back up with the bottle. “This it? Miss Kitty batted it off the dresser the other day I think.”
“Yes that’s it.” Tara nodded smiling.
“So when do you usually get hot with a sun burn?” Willow pulled herself gingerly up. She could feel her skin getting tighter and unlike the blonde she was beginning to feel very chilly.
“Sun stroke.” Tara frowned. “I’m a little susceptible to it.”
“Sun stroke!” Willow frowned unhappily. “Lie down then. We’ll get you sprayed and I’ll get you some nice cold water.” She moved and opened the window letting the cooler evening breeze come into the room.
“You first.” Tara shook her head.
“No, no I don’t get sun stroke.” Willow gave a slight smile. “I’m sorta my usual weird Willow when it comes to sunburns.”
“But yours hurts more, you’re so pale normally. Give me the spray.” Tara wiggled her fingers.
“No, see feel I’m not even hot.” Willow offered her arm for Tara to feel.
“No you’re cooling down, and that’ll make your skin dry out. Come on Sweetie, you first.” Tara tested her lover’s arm gently.
“Okay so we spray me then we spray you and you’ll let me get drinks and stuff so we can cuddle up and rest?” Willow checked reluctantly easing the knot in her sarong and then pulling her T-shirt up over her head.
“Mmmmm.” Tara watched Willow with a soft gaze she had such trouble believing she was lucky enough to be Willow’s lover. The redhead was so beautiful, so much of everything she wasn’t or she didn’t think she was. Willow’s soft voice broke into her thoughts.
“Promise.” Willow pushed not paying attention to Tara’s split attention as she eased her aching skin out of the tight bathing suit.
“We’ll see how your burn is.” The Wicca appraised.
“Okay, okay spray, it’s starting to itch.” Willow gave in with a slight whine as she put her arms up. Tara pulled the small black top off the bottle and moved closer to Willow.
“It’s cold.” She warned gently as she brought the bottle the right distance from a burned shoulder and depressed the spray sending the fine film over the freckled skin.
“I’m tough.” Willow squealed as soon as the cool mist hit her body. “Really cold.” Her teeth began chattering as Tara repeated the move.
“Sorry Sweetie.” Tara made the spraying motions quicker covering the skin quickly but efficiently.
“Not... your fault.” Willow locked her jaw as she tried not to squeal more.
“Do you need to sit down for me to do your legs or can you stand?” Tara asked softly.
“I can stand.” Willow nodded doing her best to be brave.
“Okay.” Tara eased herself down noting that actually less of the redhead’s thighs were burnt than she had originally thought. She quickly sprayed the area and then replaced the cap on the bottle.
“Brave Willow.” Tara pushed up from her crouch only for the world to shift slightly. She gave a little squeak and dropped the sun spray.
“Baby?” Willow turned just in time to see the blonde’s eyes lose focus. The redhead was glad now for years of harrowing Scoobie training, as she was able to ungracefully catch the blonde and clumsily lay her back on the bed.
“Need water.” Tara managed to moan weakly.
“Water.” Willow made sure her lover was safely placed before dashing back to the kitchen. Yanking open the fridge door she pulled out a bottle of chilled water and raced back.
“Water.” She repeated twisting off the cap and holding it up for Tara to drink. Tara managed work out where the bottle was and took a few sips. “There you go, nice water.” Willow helped her.
“I’m sorry.” Tara apologised bringing her other hand to her head that had begun to pound mercilessly.
“No love, don’t worry. I just want you to feel better.” Willow’s voice was soft and worried. “Let’s get you undressed, sprayed and into bed.”
The blonde nodded she was glad she only had a towel around her top and the light shorts on. The effort was slow, and interceded by long breaks to sip water and take a few breaths but soon Willow had worked the shorts and bikini bottoms from Tara’s body and had sprayed her with the watermelon scented medicine.
“You seemed to enjoy that more than me.” Willow smiled at the happier look on Tara’s face as they eased her over onto her pillow with just the crisp flower cotton sheet draped lightly over her.
“How could I not enjoy laying naked in bed as my beautiful girlfriend tended to my burning skin?” Tara reasoned softly.
“Mmmmm I know I love it.” Willow went over to the other side of the bed and climbed in, pulling the heavier comfort over her. “Minus you being in pain.”
“If the summer is going to be this hot I think I might need to buy a hat.” Tara smiled as Willow joined her in bed.
“I think we need big umbrellas too, damn Anya for being right.” Willow pouted.
“I think she’s probably the only one who’s not being a lobster this evening.” Tara tried to be kind.
“But with Xander nursing his...” The hacker giggled. “Butt injury, she won’t be having any fun.”
“Poor Xander.” Tara covered her face and chuckled.
“Riley didn’t look burnt, must be that Initiative training.” Willow added with a giggle. “But Buffy is.”
“He’s already that bronzed colour.” Tara commented.
“Tara Maclay are you appraising the bronzed colour of boys?” Willow put on her best pout.
“It was hard not too.” Tara blushed fiercely. “There was a lot of him on show to not notice.”
“Ewwwwwww.” Willow wiggled under her warm covers. “Buffy wasn’t much better, what was she thinking when she bought that swimsuit?”
“Riley appreciated it.” Tara appraised with another laugh.
“And half the beach.” Willow shook her head.
“She’s so confident about her body.” Tara noted with a slight sigh.
“Hey why the sigh sexy girl?” Willow edged a bit closer.
“I just couldn’t ever be that, you know, daring.” Tara admitted.
“You should be you have a gorgeous body.” Willow grinned as her eyes traced over the sheet. “Everyone says so.”
“Everyone?” Tara’s blue eyes widened.
“Yes, well I’m sure not quite in the Mmmmm yummy way I mean it but they all say you are beautiful.” Willow reached out and slipped their hands together.
“W-W-W-W-Who?” Tara’s stutter made even the simple word hard.
“Xander, Buffy, Riley, Joyce... even Giles said you were a ‘beautiful young woman and I was quite lucky to have you’.” She did her best English accent.
“Oh my.” Tara blushed more.
“You are so beautiful and I’d make love to you right now to prove it but I don’t think I should touch your burn.” Willow admitted softly.
“Though I’d love for that to happen, I think you’re right.” She said gently. “Though I’m not though, I mean I’m not anything special. You’re the special one.” She added in a whisper.
“You are super special.” Willow contradicted her. Tara hung her head a little and shook it. “You are the incredibly special girl who has my heart.” Willow whispered and leaned up gently kissing Tara making sure that only their lip touched.
“And I’ll look after it Willow, I promise.” Tara returned the kiss just as carefully.
“I know.” Willow smiled looking at the red skinned blonde.
“I... I had fun today.” Tara said softly. “Thank you.”
“Me too.” Willow smiled brighter. “Mostly cause you were there.” She admitted.
“All your friends, it’s so much easier now.” She tried to explain. “They seem better about me.” She gave simple shrug.
“That’s cause you’re a Scooby now.” Willow reassured her. “Who was the helpful blonde that tripped that vamp the other night? My Tara.”
“Oh I’m n-n-not a Scooby.” Tara shook her head.
“Yes you are, you are the witchy Scooby.” Willow noted.
“I’m happy just being your Tara.” Tara grinned despite herself.
“And I’m happy being your Willow.” She leaned in to kiss her again.
“I wish we weren’t burned.” Tara admitted her eyes glancing down over Willow’s naked shoulder.
“So do I... so do I.” Willow bit her lip.
“Though you do realise I’ll have to spend many hours looking after your back and shoulders and things now.” Tara tried to look for something positive.
“Oh yes... much rubbing with cream and lotions.” Willow thought forward happily. “Having to stay home and not wear clothes.”
“Completely naked for many hours.” Tara confirmed.
“I love you naked.” Willow nodded.
“I love you always.” Tara replied.
“Well yes, that too.” Willow grinned.
“So the gang didn’t make plans tomorrow, do you have any?” Tara asked.
“Laying in bed rubbing cream on my luscious naked girlfriend.” Willow licked her lips.
“Mmmmm is it tomorrow already?” Tara gave a seductive smile.
“You’re burn baby.” Willow leaned her lips closer.
“Your burn.” Tara pointed out as well leaning her lips even closer.
“Feeling better already.” Willow whispered
“Me too.” Tara barely got the words out as the redhead pressed her lips over Tara’s. Tara pressed back as always amazed by the feeling of completion that washed over her when they kissed.
Willow moaned softly as their kiss got deeper not ever remembering her state of sunburn. Tara let herself get lost in their kisses for a few moments before pulling back.
“I think we should stop.” She breathed in and out quickly.
“Oh yes stop now or else no stopping and...” Willow licked her lips.
“And if we didn’t stop we’d…” Tara licked her lips too and swallowed
“We’d...” Willow shivered softly as unconsciously Tara flexed her hips beneath the crisp cotton sheet.
“And we can’t do...” She bit her lip.
“Cause of our sun burns... and we love too...” Willow gulped as she felt her own hips flex as well.
“Endorphins help with pain.” Tara shifted herself a little closer to Willow in the bed licking her lips again.
“And we can re-spray.” Willow inched closer under the white sheet.
“Would you er…” The blonde paused breathing harder. “Want to?” She blew up into her hair.
“I so want too.” Willow breathed out.
“Me too.” Tara bit her lip flexing her hips again.
“So can we?” Willow felt her knee slide against Tara’s leg.
“Mmmmm we might have too.” Tara admitted pressing deliberately against Willow’s leg.
“In order to rest.” Willow shifted closer still running her hand lightly over Tara’s stomach.
“And we need to rest.” Tara made her hip presses stronger. “Lots of rest after the....” She pointed out reaching out to graze her fingers across Willow’s hips under the sheets.
“Need lots of rest.” Willow mumbled before kissing the blonde again. “Mmmmm after the love.” She kissed Tara harder as she pushed her body up and over the blonde’s.
“After much love.” Tara slipped her hands onto Willow’s butt agreeing as she opened her mouth to Willow’s tongue.
“Much long sweet love.” Willow hurried to answer before she quested slowly in through Tara’s lips as her hips pressed against the blonde.
“Just need to remember to keep hydrated.” Tara noted breathing out hotly after a few moments of uninterrupted kissing.
“No more dizzy head.” Willow nodded as she brought one hand down and cupped Tara’s breast.
“Oh Willow!” Tara groaned low and pressed her hips up. Willow’s fingertips traced over the white flesh and soon rubbed over erect flesh. Tara slid her hands round and up and pressed them likewise onto Willow’s small pert breasts. “So perfect.”
“Oh Tara.” She breathed out deeply as their hips pressed together again.
“Mmmmm so precious.” Tara’s body slipped easily into the rhythm their hips set, her thumbs rubbing over Willow’s nipples in time. Willow quickly matched her pace, her own fingers moving in the needy rhythm. “Kiss me.” Tara asked softly.
Willow instantly messed their lips together as their bodies moved as one. Tara moved her hands around and over Willow’s breasts and then slipped her hands out from between their bodies, as Willow kissed her. She slid them back onto Willow’s butt cheeks pulling her harder down onto her hips.
“Mmmmm.” Willow groaned as the contact became harder. She moved her hand to brace it on the bed as they rocked together. Tara’s groan was more of a deep-seated growl as the contact pushed away any of the discomfort the sunburn was causing her and she focused on their lovemaking.
“I love you.” Willow whispered as she leaned her lips down to softly kiss Tara’s neck.
“So much.” Tara agreed giving the redhead room to kiss her sun blushed skin.
Willow wasn’t sure when she had become so aroused and needy. Maybe it had been the hours frolicking on the beach, or the hours in the water stealing secret kisses, or the drive home hand in hand in the back seat. All she knew was that she wanted to make love with Tara so much.
“I’ve wanted to do this all day.” Tara admitted almost reading Willow’s mind.
“Me too.” Willow sucked on Tara’s earlobe.
“Really?” Tara gasped as she felt Willow’s lips on her ear.
“I didn’t even want to leave this morning.” Willow growled as she continued her affections.
Tara slipped her hands from Willow’s butt onto the lower part of her back, tracing up and over her spine. She remembered from her recent inspection that this flesh wasn’t burnt so she didn’t worry about hurting her lover.
Willow shifted slightly and brought her knee up to rest between the blonde’s legs against awaiting molten wetness
“It was on the beach when you were playing volleyball.” Tara admitted spreading her legs for Willow and whimpered slightly.
“So volleyball?” Willow urged her to explain as she dipped her head lower and placed a light kiss on the blonde’s left nipple before sucking on it lightly. As she sucked the redhead made a noise that vaguely sounded like a request for Tara to continue talking.
“Yes.” Tara bit her lip and pushed against Willow’s knee. “Or maybe it was just as you came out of the sea and your swimsuit was all…” She released a staggered breath. “Wet.” She panted the word.
“But you see me wet all the time.” Willow looked up with a wicked grin.
“Oh yes, but I usually get to feel it too.” Tara hardly believed the words as the slipped out of her mouth. Willow’s lips closed over flesh again sucking harder. “I wanted to feel.” Tara growled.
“Please.” Willow leaned up moaning the word before she kissed Tara deeply.
Obedient to her lover’s needs but also driven by desire, Tara slid one hand round and eased it between Willow’s legs. The redhead shifted her legs open more though she kept one thigh firmly rocking against Tara’s own wetness. Tara let her fingers graze over Willow’s heated body gently caressing the edge of her outer lips before easing them open and letting her fingers brush through the heat hidden there.
“Oh baby.” She breathed in a hot whisper seemingly naïve to what she was going to find. “And when did you want this to happen?” A grin spread over Tara’s face as she moved her long fingers over the inside of Willow’s lips.
“This morning when...” Willow bit her lip as Tara moved her fingers. “When you put on your suit.”
“All that time?” Tara breathed letting her fingers press a little higher in their stroking though not yet entering her lover’s waiting body.
“All the time.” Willow assured as her body responded to every move trying to arch her hips forward to cause more contact. “When you were swimming and playing Frisbee and when you were eating ice cream.”
“Eating ice-cream?” Tara almost chuckled.
“It was criminal.” Willow growled at her lover, her green eyes smoldering.
“Perhaps next time we go to the beach we should go alone.” Tar let one finger focus on Willow’s centre, rubbing on and over it her breath almost taken away by the feeling.
“Late at night.” Willow’s voice was breathy as her hips swirled with her lover’s movements.
“With a blanket.” Tara gave the outline more detail.
“And moonlight.” Willow looked into deep blue eyes.
“So we can do this.” Tara gazed back and let a finger slide into Willow’s hot body.
“We...” The redhead’s words stopped as her mouth hung open and she groaned her body completely mesmerized by the feel of Tara entering into her. “Yesss.” She hissed.
Oh yes.” Tara agreed feeling her body shiver in pure pleasure.
Willow’s hips started grinding faster and with that her leg pressed against Tara’s body harder. Tara gasped loudly and pushed into Willow’s leg wanting all the contact she could find for her own throbbing centre. Her fingers, slick in their environment explored and caressed Willow with tenderness and passion.
“Oh baby.” Willow felt just the simplest touches making her aroused body spark and jump.
“Yes sweetie yes,” Tara pressed in with a little more strength, feeling her own need welling deep inside her hot body she ground her body against Willow’s knee in a long circular motion letting a second finger slide inside Willow with the move.
“I love you.” Willow unlocked one elbow and slipped her hand down Tara’s body, soon slipping fingers into the blonde’s cavern of hot arousal.
“I love you too.” Tara’s words were a sweet whisper as she closed her eyes feeling Willow’s movements with unspeakable pleasure.
“Let’s never wait all day again.” Willow cooed as she pressed higher into the blonde’s body and matched the movement of Tara’s hand inside her.
“Hours is long enough.” Tara couldn’t control her faster hip movements as she panted and gasped slightly her insides dancing at Willow’s touch.
“Minutes more acceptable.” Willow pressed her thumb into hard nerves as two fingers slipped in and out easily.
“If we actually have to ever stop.” Tara whimpered in a highly pleasured noise.
“I’d like not to stop.” Willow hips rocked harder as she felt her insides shivering.
“Ever.” Tara echoed as the pair’s movements became less precise and more about unbridled passion.
“Especially not now.” Willow tucked her head down leaning against Tara more as she was reduced to whimpers and moans from the hard orgasm rippling through her. It was all the blonde needed to send her over the edge into the blissful oblivion of her own climax. As always she was the louder of the two calling out Willow’s name as she peaked, before settling into a more constant repetition of moaned affection.
“I love you.” Willow whispered as her body slowed a bit.
“It hardly seems enough sometimes does it.” Tara managed to say as her breathing evened a little. “Three ting words to described something so, so beautiful.” She moved her other hand and traced her fingertips over Willow’s cheek.
“I know... three tiny words to try and say all the big giant things I feel for you.” Willow agreed kissing Tara softly.
“Thankfully we can use our bodies and the rest of time to clarify.” Tara whispered kissing her back.
“The rest of forever.” Willow smiled and slowly untangled enough of her body to lie down beside the blonde.
Exhausted they settled into a blissful and restful sleep.
The End for Now…
