THEN ...

 

The perky redhead rambled endlessly, in her usual self-conscience
way, as she concentrated hard on the cup of coffee in each hand. Step by unsure
step she made her way across the living room towards the exhausted blonde who
had thrown herself carelessly onto the couch. "Buffy you do too much. Not too
much in the bad sense as in you do too much that is bad for you and bad for the
world like saving it, which isn't really bad for the world, in fact it's good
for the world and all of us in it including you which must make it a good thing,
but it's bad when you do to much of it ... if you know what I mean." Willow
paused to take a breath. Buffy looked at her with wide-eyed bewilderment for a
few seconds, and then burst into fits of wholehearted laughter. Willow
stood motionless looking lost, which only fuelled Buffy's laughing fit. When she
had finally; settled down enough to breathe again, wiped the tears from her eyes,
and held her stomach rubbing the taut slayer abs that were weak with convulsive
laughter, buffy righter herself and patted the couch next to her in an gesture for
Willow to sit down. Slightly huffily Willow did, carefully lowering herself in time
with the two coffee cups she placed on the coffee table in front of her. Buffy
took the pouting redhead's hand without resistance. She sat playing with the
fingers for a while enjoying the silence and the closeness. "Will I love you,
you are the best thing in my life. You are so special to me, and to the world.
Inside you is an amazing gift. I never want to lose you." Buffy looked intensely
at Willow who match her gaze back. "Oh Buffy I love you too!" The two best
friends hugged fiercely. "I will do anything I ever have to for you." Willow
sniffled into Buffy's strong shoulder. "Same here kiddo" smiled Buffy as
she held on tight.
