Chapter 17:[/center]
"This is the perfect time of day to skate," Tara said as they entered the skate park. "Most people will be in school or at work so there will only be a couple people here."
"Won't your uncle be mad when he sees that you aren't in school?" Willow asked.
"I already told him I was suspended."
"And?"
"He didn't care. I mean he did cause you know he wants me to do good in school and stuff. But he hates Buffy too so he is glad I hit her."
"Why does he hate Buffy?" Willow looked at Tara.
"Where the hell have you been?" Tara said.
"Huh?" Willow said than realized Tara wasn't talking to her. Willow followed Tara's glance.
"I could say the same to you," Faith said coming up to Tara and giving her a hug. A boy was behind her.
"I've been with Xander and Anya mostly. Me and Xander were just talking last night about not seeing you."
"I've been busy," Faith smirked at Tara than turened and looked at the boy. "This is Derek." Faith looked back at Tara. "I told you about him remember?"
"Oh yeah the boy who is only here a couple weeks," Tara said. She glared at the boy. "Don't hurt my best friend."
"Never," the boy smiled. "So you must be Tara."
"Yeah."
"Why aren't you in school? Faith asked.
"Suspended." Tara said.
"For what?"
"Punching Buffy in the face."
"Seriously?"
"Yup."
"Alright," Faith smiled and they high fived. "Now why aren't you in school?" Faith asked Willow.
"She got suspended," Willow smiled.
"So are you two like attached at the hip now?" Faith said.
"She wishes," Willow stuck her tongue out at Tara.
"Damn," Faith smirked.
"Let's go get a board," Tara smiled and grabbed Willow's hand. "I'm gonna teach her to skate."
"No she is just gonna stand there as I fall," Willow said.
"I won't let you fall."
"What if I'm falling for you?" Willow smriked. "You won't let me?"
"Are you falling for me?" Tara asked with a serious face.
Willow looked at her for a couple seconds than smiled. "So about that board." and she started to walk away, dragging Tara with her.
"Do they date?" Dertek asked.
"I don't even know," Faith said. "But my little Tara is falling hard as shit for red," Faith smiled.
"Hey unc," Tara said as they walked into the shop.
"Hey," Dan said.
"Are you mad at me?" Tara asked.
"No just a little disappointed but like i said at least it was someone who deserved it."
"See," Tara looked at Willow. "Told ya."
"So your Willow?" Dan smiled at her.
"Um yeah?" Willow looked at him confused. "How did you know?"
"Amazing green eyes and beautiful red hair," Dan said. Willow gave him a funny look. "Her words," he pointed at Tara. "Not mine."
"So we need a board," Tara jumped in. Willow smiled.
"What happened to yours?" Dan said.
"It's sitting by the counter," Tara said. "I need one for her."
"Why can't she use yours?" Dan asked.
"Cause I don't want her fucking it up," Tara smirked.
"Thanks," Willow said.
"I'll pay for hers," Tara said.
"No you don't have too," Willow said. "I have mon..."
"It's okay," Dan said. "It's on the house."
"Really?" Willow said.
"Seriously?" Tara said.
"She seems nicer than your other friends," Dan said. "And besides I feel like I've known her for years with how much you talk about her."
"Is embrassing me my puinshment for getting suspeneded?" Tara asked.
"Pretty much," Dan smiled.
"Thanks," Tara said.
"I love you." Dan said.
"Yeah whatever," Tara smirked as Dan walked away.
"So why isn't Faith in school?" Willow asked.
"She dropped out," Tara said.
"Oh."
"Yeah she has this dream of going to New York when she saves up enough money and become a broadway star."
"What?" Willow siad.
"Yeah I know you wouldn't except that by knowing Faith or even looking at her. No one knows about that dream but me, her, and you so let's keep it that way."
"Why did you tell me?" Willow asked.
"Cause I tell you everything," Tara said.
"You don't have too," Willow said. "Epically something between you and your friend."
"There is nothing I know that you can't know," Tara said.
"So are we like best friends now?" Willow smriked.
"For now," Tara smiled back.
"Okay let's get this board made," Dan said walking back over to them.

"Okay so what do I do," Willow said.
"Okay first which is your dominant side, left or right?" Tara asked.
"Right."
"Okay so take your left foot and place it on the bottum of the front screws."
Willow did so.
"Okay now im gonna hold onto you and you are gonna push off with your right foot."
"Okay," Willow said.
"Okay," Tara took a deep breathe as she placed her hands on Willow's waist. Goosebumps ran up both girls.
"Um," Willow said. "What do I do again?"
"I don't know," Tara said.
Faith rolled her eyes. "Push off."
"Oh right," Tara shook her head. "Push off with your right foot."
"Okay," Willow did so and when she did, she lost her balance and she tumbled into Tara's arms.
"See," Tara smiled. "Told you I wouldn't let you fall." Tara got close to Willow's face. "Unless you fall for me."
"I, I..." Willow studdered, want to try that again. She pulled out of Tara's arms. "Come on," she smiled to Tara.
"What?"
"Are you gonna hold onto me so I don't fall?" Willow asked.
"Of course," Tara smiled.

"Your getting better," Tara smiled a couple hours later.
"Yeah at least you can stay on the board and roll now," Faith said.
"That's better than me," Derek said looking down at the board. "I'm not good at this."
"We can tell," Willow said. Everyone laughed.
"Alright look," Derek walked over to her. "Just cause you can roll doesn't mean your all that now," Derek tickled her.
Willow squealed. "Help," she said.
"Nah this is kinda funny," Tara said.
"Baby please," Willow said inbetween laughs and squeals.
"Well when you put it that way," Tara ran over and jumped on Derek's back.
"Hey," Derek laughed.
"Now this is worthy of a picture," Faith said. She pulled out her camera and took a picture as her three friends fell to the ground.
"Threesome?" a voice said.
Everyone looked up to see Xander and Anya.
"Hey," Everyone said.
"Jealous?" Faith said.
"Hell yeah," Xander said. "I wanna have a threesome with two lesbians." Anya smacked him. "Ow what? Stop taking everything so personally."
Tara stood up and reached down and grabbed Willow's hand and helped her up. Derek followed.
"So how was school?" Willow asked.
"Boring," Xander said.
"Stupid," Anya said. "Shopie and Buffy both came up to me and asked where you were." she said to Willow.
"What did you say?" Willow asked.
"I said that they didn't need to know where you were," Anya smiled.
"Than tell them what you did," Xander smirked.
"I kicked Buffy," Anya said.
"What?" everyone said.
"Yup, I kicked her. It felt good," Anya said.
"Did you get in trouble?" Willow asked.
"Nope, I told her if she told on me too than she would just look like a 6-year-old tatler," Anya said.
"I have an interesting group of friends," Faith said.
"Oh like your anywhere near normal," Tara said.
"I'm hungry," Xander said.
"Me too," Derek said.
"Me three," Willow said.
"Well let's go get food," Fatih said.
Everyone started to walk.
"Hey Tare," Faith said. "Wait up," she grabbed her best friends arm.
Everyone else kept walking.
"What?" Tara asked.
"You are really falling for red?" Faith smirked.
"Yeah and you wanna know the funny thing," Tara said.
"What?"
"We haven't even kissed yet?"
"YOU HAVEN'T KISSED HER?!?!?!?!" Faith shouted. Everyone stopped and turned and looked at them.
"Is today embrass Tara day?" Tara asked as she covered her face with her hands.
"Since when do you get embrassed?" Faith asked.
Tara mumbled something.
Faith rolled her eyes and grabbed Tara's hands away from her face. "Try saying that again."
"Since Willow Rosenburg walked into my life," Tara said.
