Authors notes: I have no idea when this fic takes place...that’s up to you to decide

Dawn is very much gay in this fic. Oh, and about the title. I had no idea how to call this little piece. So, I named it after one word in the lyrics...and you know, the title kinda suits the ending
The Bronze was packed that night. Little groups of people were gathered around tables, chatting the night away, all waiting for the big performance of that night. The dancefloor was still kind of empty, with only about 20 people dancing to the songs the DJ picked. On one of the couches in the Bronze, a group of five people was settled. They were Buffy, Dawn, Willow, Xander and Anya.
“So then that stupid vamp pulled out a knife, wham! Bye bye, leather jacket! God, I hate it when that happens. The Council should really start giving me money for clothes, I mean, hello? I need to work at least thirty hours until I can pay a new jacket like that. It’s unfair” Buffy was rambling on. The other four people only nodded, all of them staring at the stage where a band was setting up.
“And I was like, bang, you take that. This one is for my shoes! And this one for my jacket! And then I staked him and...” Buffy was cut short by Willow “Buffy, it’s starting!”
All the Bronze went dark. The only light seen was the spotlight focused on the centre of the stage. And there, in the middle of that light, the backside of a young blonde woman was visible. She was dressed in a nice pair of black tight jeans and a long leather coat. The music started and the young woman turned around. Willow’s jaw dropped. Tara, who was the singer on stage, turned out to have a really nice black tanktop with a panther-print on it right underneath her leather coat. Willow had seen her Tara on stage at least a hundred times already, but she could only gasp as Tara started singing.
Kiss me all over
is all I can say
I’ve waited a lifetime
To feel this way
You leave me breathless
And out of my mind
I’m just so helpless
So baby be kindThe crowd was going crazy. The dancefloor now was packed.
I lost my heart
When I found you
Yeah it hurt so good
To loose
I lost my heart
When I found you
I lost my heart to youTara started moving to the side of the stage, and slowly walked off the stairs that were there, straight into a shouting crowd. But she only had eye for one person in that crowd. Willow. As she sung on she started moving towards Willow. In the meantime, the spotlight kept following her.
You touch me in places
Deep in my heart
Imagination
Runs wild in the darkTara had reached Willow and pulled her up. She looked her straight in the eye and sung directly to Willow, while dancing around her
Babe I surrender
Only to you
I can’t remember
How it feels to be blue
I lost my heart
When I found you
Yeah it hurt so good
To loose
I lost my heart
When I found you
I lost my heart to youTara held Willow’s hand, kneeling down for her.
You leave me breathless
And out of my mind
I’m just so helpless
So baby be kind.
I lost my heart
When I found you
Yeah it hurt so good
To loose
I lost my heart
When I found you
I lost my heart to youAs the music started fading out Tara stood up and pulled Willow into her arms, to leave her breathless with a passionate searing kiss.
The crowd cheered and Tara spoke into her microphone.
“Well people, as probably obvious, this song was dedicated to the love of my life. So, if you don’t mind, I’m going to spend a bit of time now with my Willow, and I will be on stage again for more in about ten minutes”
The crowd cheered once again, as the DJ played some more music. Tara turned to Willow, putting the microphone down on the table while turning it off.
“Hey baby”
“Hmm, hey yourself”
Willow put her arms around Tara again.
“That was quite a performance there missy” She said while leaning forward to plant a kiss on her lover’s lips.
“Only the best is good for my Willow” Tara replied in between kisses. Tara sat down on the couch, pulling Willow onto her lap. Xander and Anya had moved to he dancefloor, dancing in their own unique way to a pop song that was playing. Buffy stood leaning on a table, trying to get the best view possible of some guy she had noticed. Dawn however, was still sitting on the couch, smiling at the two young woman next to her.
“Tara, I’ve seen you perform so many times already but THIS was definitely the coolest ever. And I wasn’t the only one who thought so, the crowd was going crazy!”
“Aww, thanks Dawnie.”
“Ah well...you know what, I’ll leave you two to ehm, another five minutes of smoochies. I’m gonna... do something”
Dawn tried to make up some poor excuse while Willow and Tara both had already seen where her eyes had been all that time. Dawn had been eyeing a young brown-haired girl, and from the looks of it, the girl had been eyeing Dawn just as much.
“Sure Dawn...go get her Tiger!” Tara replied.
“Okay, bye” Dawn hurried off to the girl. Willow and Tara saw her speeding off, and then soon Dawn was in an intense talk with the girl, in which they, for some reason, had to stand almost on top each other. Tara grinned.
“What about my Tiger? Is she gonna give her lover some kisses before she has to go on stage again?”
Willow didn’t need to think about that. She kissed Tara and soon they were involved in a passionate smooch-fest.
Minutes later, they were still kissing when a blonde guy tapped Tara on her shoulder.
“Hate to interrupt Tar, but I think the ten minutes are over....and the crowd has noticed that as well.”
“Kay, I’m coming Jack”
Tara stole one last kiss from her Willow before she moved up to the stage again.
She sang another eight songs and that was her performance for the night. All that time, she had kept the crowd yelling, screaming and going crazy for her. But it was over, the band started packing up their stuff and Tara was soon to be found again in Willow’s arms. They kissed for quite a while when Tara and Willow decided to see if they could find the others so they could head home.
Xander and Anya had strangely disappeared. Buffy was still hanging on the table, her head propped upon two hands. Dawn was to be found in a dark corner, kissing the dark-haired girl.
Willow and Tara stood up and walked towards Buffy. “Hey Buf. Any luck with that guy you’ve been eyeing all night?” Tara asked. Buffy sighed deeply. “Don’t think so... I think he’s kinda gay. Oh, let me rephrase that. I know he is kinda gay.” Tara and Willow looked over where Buffy had been staring all night, only to see the guy in a deep kiss with another guy.
Willow and Tara shared a little grinning look between them. Willow spoke up again. “Don’t worry Buffy, you’ll find someone soon too.” Buffy turned around to face them. “I hope so”
At that moment her eye fell on her little sister, still deeply kissing the girl she had been with almost all night. “God, I hope so. See, even Dawnie has found herself a hottie.”
Tara took Buffy’s hand. “Come on, we’re gonna go.” They headed over to Dawn.
“Ehm...Dawn, hate to interrupt, but I think we’re gonna go.” Dawn sighed deeply and turned around. “Fine fine, I’m coming. Oh, by the way, this is Abigail. Abigail, meet my family. Buffy, my sister, Willow and Tara, best friends” They all shook hands. Dawn turned towards her girl. “So, I’ll call you tomorrow, okay?” Abigail nodded and they shared one more kiss before the group of young people headed out.
On the way home, Buffy had to slay two vampires, but after that the walk home went by without any problems. Everyone headed to their rooms.
“God, I’m beat” Willow said while she and Tara entered their room.
“Oh really, is that so?” Tara asked with a mischievous grin. She pulled Willow to her and put her arms around her.
You are the moonlight, I am the stars, together we light up the night
You are the passion, I am the flame, together we’re one of the same
I am the taker, you are the chance, this is the rule of romance
I am the seeker, you are the find, together we’re two of a kind
Two hearts one love, beating together... I am yours, you are mine
Two hearts one love, always forever, standing the test of timeThat was all Tara got to sing in Willow’s ear before Willow roughly pulled Tara’s face towards her, to kiss her passionately. Clothes were quickly dispatched and it wasn’t long before Tara was growling Willow’s name in the heat of passion. Tara needed only a minute to recover. She quickly turned so she was on top, straddling Willow with her hips.
“Now you’re full of energy, aren’t you?” she said before roughly kissing Willow. Willow could only groan. “I wanna make you scream” Tara breathed in Willow’s ear. After that, all thoughts Willow possibly had left her mind. There was only Tara.
The End.
Another Authors Note: I am mean, I know...ending it right here...but you know, it’s also nice to use your own imagination to fill in what happened next
Feedback, anyone?
