warning: there will be typos yet again.


                Chapter 25        48 hours later

 Out in the freshly cut back yard of Alexandra Robert's rented home, 
a girl wearing low slung, blue jeans and a tight green tee was 
smoothing out the edges  of the white blanket she'd brought out a 
mere hour earlier.  Buffy Summers then proceeded to light the 4 long, 
cream colored candles she'd brought for this momentous occasion.  
Once done, the compact blonde walked to the middle of the blanket and 
took a critical look around.  She was standing less than 3 feet from 
the back door, facing the wooden kitchen chair she had wrestled 
outside earlier that day.  It was,in her estimations, perfect 
positioning.  While Alex would remain hidden in the shadows of the 
porch, she and Willow would be, ideally, framed by the soft glow of 
the candle light and the full moon that resided over her head.

           It ain't a drive-in, she thought to herself, but it'll 
have to do!

 The Slayer bent down and hit the play button of Alex's boom box.  
Soon, soft 70's rock was wafting through the still night air. It'ed 
taken her and Willow a full day to decide on what music to listen 
too.  In the end, they went for the type that Alex would recognise as 
being from her complicated youth.  Buffy couldn't help but smiling 
bittersweetly as she pivoted upon her heel and went to collect Alex 
and, what was sure to be, her nervous lover.

  Inside the kitchen, Willow Rosenberg was chewing on the tender 
insides of her lower lip as she stared into the dark Southerner's 
perfectly blank exspression.  The redhead knew that, very shortly, 
she'd have to give an oscar winning performance without giving into 
her own baser instincts.  It was going to be a damn hard thing to do 
but the Hacker/Witch remained hopeful that she and Buffy could pull 
it off without compromising themselves too much.  

         That's going to be, she  couldn't stop thinking, a majorly 
tricky proposistion!

       " Well, Alex, I hope your ready for tonight because I'm Not!  
Me and Buffy agreeded, though, this is something that has to be done. 
Neither one of us can take you being like This anymore.  It tears me 
apart, thinking that you could remain looked up inside your own 
mind.  So I'm going to say something and I really hope you can 
understand me.  I wish, on some level, our actions tonight will break 
through to you."

 The redhead, in a pruely nervous habit, ran a hand through her 
tousled hair.  She too was dressed casually, in faded blue jeans and 
a tight, white tee shirt.  It wasn't that she doubting the Slayer's 
intentions.  No, it was more that she wasn't at all sure how she 
would react once things went to the physical level.  The slender 
Wiccan's nerves where streched beyond the word taunt by the constant, 
never ending, worry about That moment.  Durning the day, Willow was 
highly sucessful with putting those thoughts into the back of her 
mind.  Nighttime,however, was a totally different story.  It had 
reached the point of where she was almost certain that Giles 
suspected something.  That man, of course, never made mention of it 
when in their company.  Giles thoughts where reflected in the very 
pointed looks he threw her and Buffy's way.  Willow's musings where 
cut short by the sound of her lover walking onto the porch.

Buffy stuck her head through the  back door and tried to grin 
reassureingly  at both Wills and the dark woman.

         Wow, baby, we really gotta get you to take a chill pill, 
thought the Slayer after witnessing the other girl's panicked facial 
exspression.

                " Relax, babe, I got your back.  I swear, on the 
thought of losing my beloved Mr. Gordo, that we'll only go as far as 
you want. 'Kay, Wills?  FYI, may I say that you look utterly tasty 
tonight."

The blonde was gratified to watch That look filter off the redhead's 
face.  She knew, naturally, how hard this was going to be for Willow 
Rosenberg.  Her awe of her lover's strong dispositon flared higher as 
that girl smiled back at her.

                " It's time,Will, you ready?"

The Witch, who'ed been expecting those words all day,still couldn't 
help twitching at their sound.  She regretted it after seeing the sad 
look that flashed across her lover's hazel gaze.

           " Not really, Buffy, but let's do this thing anyway."

As the blonde stepped out of the way, to let Willow and Alex make 
their way out on the porch, an insanely proud grin overtook her face.

                " Damn," Buffy's brain was shouting in glee, " my 
baby sure got it going on!" 






So ends this chapter.  Will try and send another part within the next 
two days.
