Fall To Pieces

[Taras Shadow]

Hey Kittens, I've been a lazy Kitten these days with my other stories, plus with RL having reared it's ugly head again, I find it hard to find time to update. But during my very rollercoaster Summer, I have started a new fic and yes, it's done! So here you go...I'll post in parts like always. Enjoy!



Title: Fall To Pieces



Author: Taras Shadow



Rating: R



Pairings: Willow/Tara



Discaimers: BtVS Characters belong to Joss Whedon, UPN, ME...all other characters belong to me.



Summary: Can love conquer all? Or are there obsticles that will forever stand in the way?



Chapter One - It's All So New



Willow glanced at her watch for the sixth time since her first interview at the University library finished - and that was only ten minutes ago. Her best friend was late in picking her up, making that the second night in a row. Leave it to Oz for taking his own sweet time.



Finally a van pulled up to the curb and the passenger door swung open. “Where were you?” Willow frowned and hopped into the van.



“Sorry, practice ran late and Veruca never showed up,” Oz apologized as he pulled out onto the road. “So, my house for a movie?”



“No,” Willow sighed. “I’m beat, plus I have to meet my sister at work...she wants to spend more time with me.”



Oz smirked and looked over at his best friend. “Ocean always wants to spend time with you.”



“Well yea, but she’s moving away next year and I think this time is way more important this time around,” the redhead frowned.



“Okay, so I’ll drop you off at the restaurant and maybe we can catch up this weekend?”



“Sure Oz,” Willow grinned. “So how are things with you and Veruca?”



Oz smiled and shook his head. “I haven’t asked her out yet. She’s hard to figure out, but I’m waiting for the perfect timing.”



“Hmm,” Willow thought about this for a moment. “Why not just ask her out for a coffee and ask her then? I mean, technically you’ll be out with each other anyway.”



“You know, you have it easy,” Oz glanced at Willow, “you like women, you know how they think, what they like...because you are one. So it’s more easier for you to achieve these things.”



“Maybe, or you’re just chicken shit,” Willow laughed.



“Speaking of chicken shit,” the young man said with a teasing voice, “have you asked her out yet?”



Willow barked with laughter and looked at Oz like he grew two heads. “Me? Ask her out? Are you kidding me? She’s... Ocean’s best friend! Isn’t there an unspoken law about dating your siblings best friend?”



Oz just shrugged and kept on driving, turning the corner on Main Street and parked in front of the restaurant. “Plus, you’ve known her since you were five...that’s also a con. But hey, look at it this way, at least she knows your flaws and family secrets right?”



“You really know how to help a best friend out here!” Willow stuck out her tongue, giving Oz a playful smile and saying thanks before heading inside the empty restaurant.

So? Shall I continue?

Chapter Two - The Way You Look At Me



Willow scanned the deserted restaurant and decided to plop down in the ‘Staff Booth’ where all the workers count their bills and tip money after shift work is done.



“Lookie lookie, it’s the cutie from next door,” a blonde sat down across from the redhead, her eyes twinkling while she sipped on a Pepsi. “Willow, what brings you by?”



Willow swallowed before licking her lips and opening her mouth, “Ocean wanted me to meet her here after my interview at the University library.”



The blonde nodded before pushing her pepsi in the redhead’s direction. “Want a sip?”



“Tara, stop flirting with my sister,” Ocean came out from behind the kitchen doors holding a tray.



Willow blushed and decided to take a sip anyway. “Thanks,” she murmured.



“No problem,” Tara grinned and moved over so Ocean could slide in next to her. “And I wasn’t flirting with your sister,” she grabbed a fry from the tray, pointing it at her best friend. “But I can’t help it if she’s a little hottie.”



“Tara!” Ocean groaned before going back to grab Willow a can of Pepsi.



Willow felt her pulse quicken. She’d been crushing on Tara ever since fourth grade and throughout the years, the feelings have only grown deeper. But she knew that it may feel weird if her feelings were revealed in anyway, Tara was her sister’s best friend and had been for the past thirteen years.



“So, movies tonight? Or do you need to be up early again?” Ocean sat down, her light brown hair tucked neatly behind her ears. She was always jealous of her younger sister, having such gorgeous red hair and she was stuck with light brown.



Willow finished chewing a fry and swallowed before answering. “I think I can manage a trip to the theatre with you two,” she smiled.



“Good! I call middle!” Tara grinned and winked at her best friend.



“You always get the middle,” Ocean scowled. “Can’t I have the middle?”



“But then you get to sit by Willow and I don’t,” the blonde raised an eyebrow. “You don’t like to talk in the middle of the movie and we do, so I should sit in the middle!”



Willow rolled her eyes and smiled softly. Every time they decided to go to the movies, this fight would break out. “Why don’t I sit in the middle, that way I can be seated next to both of you?”



Tara and Ocean exchanged looks and nodded their heads firmly. “Sounds like a good idea,” the brunette smiled.



“So, which movie?” Willow asked, checking the clock above the small bar. “And what time?”



“Well, Ocean’s gotta close and I have to run to the bank, but we were thinking of seeing a comedy, not sure which one yet.” Tara said as she took the last fry from the tray.



“I have to close in an hour, but Tara’s off...you two can go and hangout and I can meet you in front of the movies,” Ocean stood up and cleared off the table. “It looks like it’s going to be a slow hour so I may close early,” she came back with a wash cloth.



“Want to come to the bank with me?” Tara asked Willow, holding out her hand.



Willow and Tara always held hands when they were playing around. But since Willow’s heart started to beat just for her, she was more shy of doing such an act.



Slipping from the booth, Willow grabbed Tara’s hand anyway and nodded. “Why do you need money?” she asked. “I can pay for you,” she added with an adorable smile.



Tara blushed slightly and shook her head. “Maybe you should save that offer for another time,” she smiled, giving Willow a sexy yet shy grin.



“Another time?” Willow’s eyebrows furrowed.



“Yea,” Tara nodded and opened the door for the redhead. “Later Ocean!” she yelled.

Chapter Three - Trying To Belong



“No way!” Tara snorted with laughter, placing her mocha on the side table of the cyber café.



“He did, he came right out and asked me if I wanted to meet him,” Willow shook her head. “There’s no way I’d meet someone over the internet, ever.”



“Well duh, he could be a serial rapist or something,” the blonde nudged the redhead. “But you know, if you want too, I can be there... you’ve been talking to this guy since tenth grade...you may like him...”



Willow raised her eyebrow at the older girl. “Um, hello, gay here!”



Tara blushed. “Okay, but still...”



“No still...I don’t really want to meet him.”



“Okay, so no meeting strange internet men, got it,” Tara smiled and peeked into Willow’s mocha cup, “you gonna finish that?” She smirked, knowing how addicted to mocha’s her friend was.



“Haha, funny...” Willow smirked and pushed her cup towards Tara. “You can have it if you want.” She’d give the blonde the world if she could.



Tara gasped in mock-shock and felt Willow’s head for a temperature. “You feeling okay?”



“Tara, if you want it, you can have it...plus, if I have anymore, I might explode,” Willow groaned, arching her back a little, her hands caressing her aching belly.



Tara swallowed at the sight of her best friend’s sister stretching then sliding her hands under her shirt to rub her belly. I wish those were my hands, she thought, biting her lip before sucking back the last of Willow’s mocha. “Thanks sweetie,” she smiled and popped a kiss on the other girl’s cheek.



**



During the movie, Tara would whisper some witty things into the redhead’s ear. Usually she’d allow her lips to linger so close to the lobe before saying something - fighting the urge to take it into her mouth and suckle it softly. Also every so often, she’d get a nudge from Ocean to stop flirting with Willow.



Willow on the other hand, tried to fight the urge to hold Tara’s hand. Or to turn her head in Tara’s direction just as Tara was going to whisper and press their lips together. God, she so wanted to feel those beautiful full lips pressed against her own.



“I’ve gotta go to the ladies room, no necking when I get back,” Ocean whispered in Tara’s ear as she got up to leave. She knew for a while now that her best friend was becoming more interested in her sister. She could tell by the way Tara would look at Willow, or talk, or just...get lost in her own little world. Was she against her best friend and sister dating? Not really. Though she did feel that it was quite awkward to think about. Willow was growing up so fast and heading into her second year of University. But to Ocean, she’ll always be her baby sister and Tara will always be the best friend that helped take care of the redhead.



Willow watched her sister disappear and she looked at Tara. “Were we too loud?” she whispered.



“No, she needs to use the ladies room,” Tara grinned. “I’m kinda bored of this movie,” she sighed and hunched in her seat.



“Tara, you always say that when the movie is halfway done!” Willow laughed.



“Well, guy is a dork, falls in love with a hottie, guy becomes hot, does something stupid, girl gets turned on by the wanna be hottie dork and they live happily ever after...” Tara rolled her eyes before smiling. “It should be, girl falls in love with girl and have all the delicious details in the middle!”



Willow burst into silly giggles and shook her head. “You are something else, Maclay.”



“Oh yea? And what is that something else?” Tara raised an eyebrow, never leaving Willow’s eyes.



Willow and Tara sat there for a minute, staring into each others eyes and giving shy smiles before they heard someone try to get into their aisle, breaking the magic moment.



“Well, at least you’re not necking,” Ocean whispered, getting into her seat comfortably.



“Not yet, anyway,” Tara hissed back, leaning back in her seat, staring straight ahead at the screen.
