No she couldn’t forget how Tara and willow stared at each other in the coffee shop when their hands touched for the first time or how her blood boiled at the sight of the Blonde's lips caressing the hacker's cheek at the actress apartment...
"It hurts" she numbled wincing in pain as if all those events were cutting through her heart like a blade...she needed to release all the hurtful energy rapidly surging into her system ...revenge was her only answer...and Tara was her target...

Chap 17
"I wanted to be the first to wish you a happy birthday " Came a sweet womanly muffled voice from behind a huge white teddy bear holding on its arm a bouquet of white roses.
It was early for the party to start and seven o'clock was never the usual time for the guests to knock doors bearing in their hands gifts and flowers; but this strange person hiding behind the bear made Sally's heart beat in an erratic and non understandable way...
She knew attraction only in rare moments of her life let alone love...
There she was standing at the doorstep, her mind racing and her heart begging the Goddess to let her eyes bask in the beauty of a certain brunette woman she met yesterday...Simply she was craving for a smile growing on her lips and a huge hug to draw her into strong arms so she can find once again in her lonely life...
A breathtaking smile covered her face when Tanya stepped aside as she took Sally's hand kissing it while she whispered softly " I am glad I stopped by early so my eyes would be the only ones to enjoy your charm..."
"That's...That's...oh my god...I am speechless" mumbled Sally as a flush covered her neck rapidly spreading upwards towards her face upon hearing the flirtatious tone of the gorgeous brunette.
She looked away not daring to let her eyes meet Tanya's in fear to give her away because there were hiding her true emotions...and there were of course glimmers of attraction booming rapidly in her soul and desperately struggling after a terrible fight between heart and mind to show in her eyes...
The mind would always conquer but now it wasn't the case, she knew it and felt it ; that's why she shed her baby blue eyes like a young flower that was yearning for the warmth of the powerful rays of sunshine yet did not dare to look above or the heart of a lover who had just felt a tiny quiver and was just going to spring into a laughter of triumph yet did not...
Tanya's eyes seemed to dance, yet they were still like a big facade hiding behind it her true turmoil; her own pain that seemed to burn to the deepest core...It wasn't allowed to let her past reflect in her eyes not, certainly not anytime around Sally and nor under any circumstances...it was a battle she had to win and right now stepping on her aching heart was the only answer to seduce the woman who was completely surrendering to her own few first words in the game of attraction...for sure the brunette didn't loose her charm yet and the battle didn't seem so fierce so far...or was it just only the calm before the storm...anyway she was prepared...fully ready to face her destiny...everything was carefully planned and the brunette wouldn't let any tiny detail slip her by.
Quickly she clenched her hand over Sally's and drew her into her arms mumbling softly in her ear "happy birthday gorgeous..."
Biting her lips moodily Sally responded calmly "it is the best so far..."
Pulling away from the tight embrace Tanya smiled at the woman in front of her whose cheeks were flushed pink " may I come in?"
" oh...oh of course...where's my manners..." her face turned into a deep crimson color as she carried on her apology speech " I am sorry...really sorry...please do come in..."
Tanya caressed Sally's cheeks with her fingers " wanna help me let the gentleman in?
"What gentleman?" Implored Sally tenderly as she gripped the other's woman hand tightly and laughed shakily.
Turning her head around, Tanya pointed at the huge bear teddy bear standing at the doorstep then looked in sally's eyes for a while trying both to keep their giggles at bay but failing miserable as a wave of hysterical laughter hit them both...
"All right.." Were the only words that Sally was able to manage between the giggles as they both tried to move her giant gift into the living room...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
" Your kisses distract me sweetie " Said Tara as she opened again the door of her apartment and disappeared into the bedroom followed by a sneaky giggling redhead.
"What's wrong with my kisses?" asked Willow as she stood in the living room faking ignorance.
" They just blow my mind" answered the actress as she stepped back into the room where her pouting redhead was " you see I forgot Sally's gift " she added as she closed the distance between them " that's your kisses effect...so dangerous miss Willow..."
Putting her long blonde curls back from her brows the hacker stroked her temples as she kissed them lightly "but that shouldn't worry you" she said softly pleading
"No, I don't worry" the blonde laughed tenderly.
"Not a little bit? "Implored the redhead caressing Tara's cheek.
"With you, I am safe. no place for worry " she responded softly as she held the willing redhead captive in her arms and let her lips caress Willow's neck...Everything was perfect still but the heavy pulse beating under her lips.
Pulling away Tara was contemplating the dreamy look covering her lover's face...her mouth was offered so her throat and her eyes were half shut...the actress smiled lightly, shut her eyes too and met her dreamy woman in a long whole heartedly felt kiss...they kissed for minutes and minutes loosing their selves in each other arms
Their bodies' spontaneously were sealed as if not wanting anything or anyone at all to destroy the unity that their hearts had just started to witness...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Oh no!!" Exclaimed Sally looking heavily at the brunette with an evident hint of disappointment in her voice.
"Why the sadness sweetie? "the other woman tried to reproach her as she put her finger tips under her chin aiming to look into her blue eyes full of pain.
She smiled sadly as if she felt all lonely by herself, as if all the words she heard coming out from Tanya's mouth were meant to destroy her dreams for tonight...her new dreams...they were fresh and tender...full of attraction and glimmers of likeness…That woman in from of her was her dream s and her hopes...all Sally's Aspirations in the world seemed suddenly to revolve around one person...one woman...she wanted badly to feel her arms around her wait and her smooth words tickling the farthest part of her imagination...but all came tumbling down…nothing in her world seemed to persist ...nothing at all...
"Does it matter? "She quickly mumbled as she tried to look away but Tanya was much faster and held her face in her hands
" For people outside this apartment it surely doesn't matter " looking deeply in Sally's eyes she carried on " But for me it means the world..."
" I ...Just…I " Sally tired to respond "I don't want you to leave..."
" I know sweetie..." Smiled the brunette at Sally "I don't wanna leave either but I had a phone call from work requesting my presence there as soon as possible."
" It is not fair..." said Sally" I wanted to have the first dance with you...and now...It is just out of my reach..."
" Nothing is out of your reach when you're full of determination " she smiled softly as pictures of the redhead invaded her mind and heart " nothing at all..."
A bright smile grew on Sally's lips; there was a peculiar charm glowing in her eyes at that particular moment "and the music?" inquired sally again
" Just follow the melody of your heart" Said Tanya quietly as she opened her arms
Sally let herself dive in the arms of the gorgeous brunette who was bit by bit captivating her mind and soul...together they swayed gently ; one heart craving for the safety of love and another yearning for a past that doesn't any longer exist...
Kissing her head Tanya pulled away " I should go now but I'll stop by later on at ...is that okay by you?"
" Of course it is" smiled Sally " don't hesitate to come over at any time you finish the work; I'll be waiting you..."
Holing her hand the brunette kissed Sally's fingers slowly " I'll be here..."and with that she turned around heading towards the door but was stopped dead in her track when she felt a hand on her shoulder and a soft voice from behind " you said nothing is our of reach, no?"
Facing the other woman Tanya smiled softly and nodded "yes, I believe I did..."
" Then.." Ventured Sally " I am very determined to not let this opportunity pass me by ..."
She leaned in and kissed Tanya slowly and softly who was totally taken aback by the other woman reaction but quickly recovered and responded into the kiss that lasted for few minutes...
Pulling away Tanya giggled softly "I admire your determination"
Blushing deeply Sally replied " see you later them?"
"Yes, sure" responded Tanya leaving sally at the doorstep wanting and dreaming desperately that the party would be only just finished by now not knowing that her innocent and naive heart was dumbfounded and played by the brunette who was heading quickly towards her car waiting her ex-lover arrival to the party...
