Buffy had climbed up on the bed and fallen asleep almost instantly. It was obvious that her Wiccan had not gotten much sleep, the bloodshot eyes and dark circles made that clearly evident. The Slayer was running her hand through the copper locks. Having seen Evil Tara, Buffy sympathized for her newfound love. It wasn't very newfound on Buffys behalf but everything always seemed to go wrong once she was in a committed relationship. In the Slayers mind, if she kept Willow close it would be enough but that hadn't been true. It was heartbreaking to watch her with Tara and what was starting to blossom between Kennedy and Wills.
For the first time in what seemed like forever, the Slayer slept with a smile on her face. To any innocent passerby the sight would tug at the heartstrings because in that bed, in that moment there was not a Slayer with death on her hands or a Witch who had once been burdened with Dark Magicks. In that bed there was two young girls totally and completely loved and safe. A rain started to fall outside and Willow jerked awake, as there was a loud clap of thunder. Something was off and she sensed it. The redhead really looked at the bruised and battered Slayer that was sleeping in her arms. How could she have betrayed the most important person in her life?
The thing about her Slayer is she can take on anything and anyone as long as she has her family to support her and we...I took that away from her. That thought was disturbing more than she liked.
"You ok?" Willow was startled out of her reverie by the sleepy, husky and very sexy voice of the Slayer. She nodded and buried her head on Buffys chest, listening to the soothing sound of her heartbeat.
"What is wrong, Wills?" The gentleness of Buffys voice caused a pain deep in Willows chest. It was a breathtaking, heart stopping, can't breathe kind of pain. To have caused her that kind of pain and mistrust was killing Willow.
"I hu..."hiccupping sobs were choking her "rt..you...so bad." Buffy grinned lightly and kissed the redhead lightly on her nose. When that didn't comfort the redhead she started rubbing her hands lightly up and down the Wiccans back. Chill bumps raised on both girls body as they felt the electricity from just that simple touch.
"Wills, you just told me what you felt. God knows I have not given any of you guys much reason to believe in me."
Buffy pulled Willows face close enough she could see light speckles of gold in her eyes, the slight freckles just on the edge of her nose and the way her lip puckered just a little at the bottom. With a calloused thumb the Slayer tenderly wiped away the tears. Neither sure how to stop the cascading emotions their lips met softly. Buffy heard a whimper and pulled away quickly. Noticing that Willows eyes were still closed and her breathing had become harsh, Buffy leaned in again for a deeper kiss.
The touch of their lips was like a torture the Slayer had never endured before. There was a feeling of desire that it caused an ache deep inside of her. Willow reached behind Buffys neck and clasped her fingers trying to bring their bodies closer together. "Wills...mmphhhh" Buffys protest was cut off by Willows lips crushing hers again. Gathering what strength she could muster. "Are you sure?"
The redhead smiled at the Slayers voice, she sounded so much like a child and not a savior to the world. " I have never been more sure about anything, Buffy." She traced her finger down the Slayers battered face "I have watched you sacrifice yourself for us so many times and I think it is time I take my place beside you, which is where I want to be." A sudden thought occurred to her "If you still want me."
Buffy crushed her long time friend in a bone crushing hug "Oh god, Wills It is what I have always wanted. I used to be so jealous of Xander because I wanted to be the one you crushed on."
The Wiccan giggled "It was you from day one, Buffy." The redhead moved so she was straddling the Slayers naked waist. Trembling fingers reached down and teased tanned, hardened nipples. Buffys breathing accelerated as trembling fingers covered random inches of flesh. Willow leaned over the Slayer and braced herself on long slender arms. Looking deep into her lovers hazel eyes, both girls' eyes locked on the others and see the lover and desire. Willow lowered herself so that her jean-clad clit was covering Buffys naked one. The Slayer whimpered and thrust her hips up into Willows. Buffy wrapped her hands around Willows shoulders and continued thrusting up. She smiled as she felt Willow tremble and the denim get soaking wet. The redhead increased her pace pushing into Buffy. Faster and harder but she sensed Buffy wasn't close to coming yet, though her eyes were closed and face flushed. Reaching down she placed her fingers between their hips and Buffy screamed out as the redhead's fingers buried deep inside of her.
Buffy arched up and bit down on her lovers shoulder. Willow increased her pace, faster and harder, deeper. Both girls breathing hard until suddenly Buffy became still, her back arched up off the bed. Trembling started suddenly and it scared Willow a little. "Buffy, are you?"
She was cut off as Buffy collapsed on the bed "Wow!" She began to giggle
"That was so WOW."
Willow gathered her up in her arms and started to grind against the Slayers hard thigh. Buffy unbuttoned her jeans and had just slipped her hand inside when there was a loud pounding on the door.
"Buffy Anne Summers, Willow Danielle Rosenberg! Open this door right now!" Giles was sounding pretty pissed and the redhead wondered how he had even found her.
Willow leaned over the bed and kissed the Slayers nose lightly then rushed to open the door. With things the way they were outside, he didn't have to be outside long before he became Vamp food. As soon as the door was opened the Watcher rushed in. "What are you two thinking? You are the Slayer, Buffy and it is damned well time you act like one."
Wrapping the sheet around her she wearily sat up in bed. She was curious how this became about her when they were the ones who threw her out. "I don't know what happened, Giles but I want you to remember that you all were the ones who threw me out. You took my sisters belief in me and tore it to shreds. I left that house with nothing left of me."
Willow felt her heart break as she remembered that she had played a huge part in that. Moving towards the bed wanting to comfort her lover a hand was held up. "You did what you thought was right. You all thought it was right so now tell me why you are here."
The Watcher smiled admirably at the woman his Slayer had grown up to be. No Watcher, or Father had ever been prouder. Then he remembered why he had come "Xander was staked and I don't know if he is going to make it and we have lost a total of sixteen SIT's."
Buffy jumped out of bed and advanced on her watcher stealthily "What the hell happened and how did Xander get staked?"
Giles pulled his glasses off knowing they needed to leave but knowing Buffy was not going to go without answers. Faith led them into battle with Caleb and Kennedy was the one who staked Xander..."Seeing the hate contort his Slayers features he quickly stated that it was an accident. "We need help with the wounded and we have got to figure out what to do about The First."
"So you need a Slayer, now?"
Giles shook his head "No Buffy...we need The Slayer."
Thirty minutes later they were all gathered in the living room and gathering weapons. Tonight would be the night legends were made of, Stories would change over time but those that were there would never be able to describe what happened between the Slayer and the Witch but there was a power behind every punch, every kick and every movement behind the Slayers actions. The belief they would prevail fueled movements that were beyond human comprehension. As time slowed Willow watched as her lover turned and fought the demons of hell off.
After what seemed like hours they had gathered on a bus and as Buffy turned wearily she saw the sign on the side of the road. Now leaving Sunnydale. She was leaving so much of her behind but as she looked at her sister and her lover she knew she was moving on to so much more.
