“Damn it Willow, it’s not like I’m fucking the guy,” Tara said.
“What was going on in there, before I knocked?” Willow asked.
“Nothing was going on, you’re the only one I want and love,” Tara said.
“I know you love me Tara, but seeing you two hug in the parking lot at the bronze it hurt a lot,” Willow said.
“I’m sorry Willow, lets go inside,” Tara said.
“No I better not it’s getting late I should head home I have a class in the morning,” Willow said.
“ok, will I see you tomorrow?” Tara asked.
“UM, just call me around 4,” Willow said.
“Ok, I’ll do just that,” Tara said, watching Willow walk down the hall
The next morning Tara was up early and at the station all because someone called a bogus fire, so instead of going back home she stayed at there for her entire shift. She sat there reading the news paper when she heard the front door close she looks up and sees its James walking towards her and she smiles
“Hi Tara how are you this morning?” James asked, sitting down.
“Hey James, I’m great thanks for asking,” Tara said.
“So who was the fireball last night?” James asked.
“That was Willow,” Tara said, smiling.
“Cool, cool, you want to go grab something to eat?” James asked.
“Yeah sure, let me grab my purse,” Tara said, getting up.
Tara comes back out and they head out to James Truck, he opens the door and she hops right in. James runs around and gets in cranking up the truck, He pulls out of the firehouse parking and onto the main street. He looks over when he heard a cell phone ring to see Tara pulling out her phone.
“Hey, you make it to class,” Tara asked, into the phone.
“Yeah, I just called to say I’m sorry about last night,” Willow said, into the phone.
“Don’t worry about, all is forgiven,” Tara said.
“Do you want to get together later tonight?” Willow asked.
“I would love to, what time?” Tara asked.
“How about, um around 5pm,” Willow said.
“Great 5pm it is,” Tara said.
“Ok well I have to get back into class, I’ll call you later,” Willow said.
“Sounds good to me,” Tara said.
“I love you Tara,” Willow said.
“love you too,” she said, hanging up the phone.
“So you got a date tonight?” James asked.
“Yeah I do,” Tara said, placing the phone back into her purse
“Cool the Bronze, you want to go there?” he asked.
“Yeah sure why not,” Tara said.
James pulls in and parks the truck and they get out heading into the Bronze, ordering drinks and something to eat. They sat there and talked waiting on there food to arrive.
“This is one cool place,” James said, looking around.
“Yeah it’s cool, since they had to remodeled it,” Tara said.
“Cool, so you want to dance?” He asked.
“I would say yeah, but here comes are food, maybe afterwards,” Tara said.
They ate there food and talked a little more, just getting to know each other a little more, after they were done eating they sat there for a few more minutes.
“So how about that dance?” James asked. Standing up.
They walked out to the dance floor and started dancing to the music. Mean while Buffy Xander Anya and Willow come walking into the bronze ordering drinks then heading to find a seat near the back. As they near the dance floor area they could hear people cheering for something that’s going on. On the dance floor.
“I wonder what’s going on?” Xander asked.
“Who knows Xander,” Buffy said.
“Probably some couple living it up on the dance floor,” Xander said.
“Oh I want to see, c’mon Xander,” Willow said, clapping her hands like a kid.
“I’m right behind you Wills,” Xander said.
They pushed through the crowd of people on the dance floor until they got to the area where the two were dancing, Willow froze when she saw it was Tara and that guy from last night doing an erotic dance. Xander keep looking over at Willow to see her reaction and noticed the tears in her eyes. As the song ended Willow watched as James dipped Tara and brought her back up and kissed her. The crowd clapped, they pulled apart and Tara looked around the crowd and come upon Willow standing right in front with tears, shaking her head, then turning to leave.
“Oh gods, Willow, I have to go,” Tara said, running after her.
“Hey back so soon, Willow what’s wrong?” Buffy asked, seeing the tears.
“I have to go,” Willow said, grabbing her purse.
“Xander what happen, who was on that dance floor?” Buffy asked.
“Xander, where’s Willow?” Tara asked, as she neared the table.
“She left after seeing you kiss him,” Xander said, pointing to the guy walking up behind her.
“Tara you kissed a guy?” Buffy asked.
“See told you guys another orgasm buddy,” Anya said.
“Shut up Anya, I got to find her,” Tara said, turning to leave.
Tara runs out of the bronze and sees Willow walking down the street, “Willow” Tara runs to catch up to her. As she catches up she touches her shoulder, and willow pulls away.
“Will, please stop,” Tara said.
“Why should I stop,” Willow said, turning around.
“please don’t be mad I’m sorry,” Tara said.
“your nothing but a liar Tara, and you I hope your happy,” Willow said, seeing James come up to them.
“James just go back inside,” Tara said, turning around.
“Tara my pager went off, we have to go,” James said.
“No James, I’m off the rest of the day you just go,” Tara said.
“you better go Tara,” Willow said.
“We need to talk about us,” Tara said.
“No Tara, there’s not an US anymore,” Willow said.
“Wait, what are you saying Willow?” Tara asked.
“I’m saying we are through Tara, you kissing him was the last straw,” Willow said.
“Whoa, wait Tara you’re a lesbian?” James asked.
“You never told him Tara,” Willow said.
“No I shouldn’t have to, my personal life is private,” Tara said.
“that’s nice, I got to go,” Willow said.
“Willow wait don’t go I LOVE YOU!” Tara yelled out.
“WOW did you just that out loud,” Willow said, turning around
