FIC: Heart's Spell

[jeepy91@xxxxxxx]

Hi gang :)

Well I wrote this about three weeks ago and I wasn't going to post it cause I wasn't very happy with it.  I was going to try and rework it a bit, but I'm so busy for finals I figured I wouldn't get the time.  And when I finally would get around to working on it again I'd probably lose my ideas for it anyway :(

So, basically read at your own risk.  I don't think it's terrible,but I'll let you guys be the judge of that :)

On with the fic.............

Pairing: Buffy/Willow.  If you know me you don’t even haveto ask about the pairing.
Summary: Sort of a spin on the first season episode ‘The Witch’.  
Spoilers: Well ‘The Witch’ was what, the third episode?So the spoilers aren’t all that plentiful, but if you haven’t seen ‘Welcome To The Hellmouth/The Harvest’ and ‘The Witch’ then you might be a bit spoiled.

Feedback: Please. Anything you’d feel inclined to throw my way would be much appreciated.
Warning: If the idea of two consenting adult woman involved in a relationship bothers you, run far far away
Author’s Note: Well this is a short little fic that I felt compelled to write after watching ‘The Witch’ the other night.  Willow just seemed so concerned for Buffy, especially considering it was only the third episode.  It’s sorta told in Willow’s POV

Thoughts are in <  >

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Willow and Xander stared across the gym at the overenthusiastic  Slayer, who at the moment was bounding her way through one of the pep cheersthe Sunnydale High cheerleading squad was known for.  Xander was towing a fine line between worry and arousal.  Watching Buffy dance and gyrate to the pulsing beat was doing all sorts of naughty things to his 16 year old body.  Unbeknownst to Xander, Willow was feeling the exact samestorm of emotions, and it was scaring her more than any vampire had.

She realized that it seemed impossible to feel so strongly about a person she had only known  such a short while.  But yet she knew without question that she was falling head over feet in love with her petite friend.  She was falling hard, and part of her didn’t want to stop the freefall into the world of trouble that loving her friend was sure to cause.  As much as the feelings she possessed for Buffy were scary, they were just as wonderful.  Her heart skipped a beat every time Buffy smiled at her.  One of those pure Buffy smiles, not the Slayer, not the Chosen One, just Buffy.  Willow noticed how her skin became tinglywhenever she and Buffy managed to brush up against one another.  She could feel Buffy’s warm soft skin on her hours after they had broken contact.  She loved gazing into the Slayer’s eyes, getting lost in the vast depth of her rich green pools of warmth and caring.  Willow loved Buffy’s eyes, every
thing Buffy was feeling could be read in her gentle, expressive green orbs.

Willow was broken out of her reverie when she heard Buffy’s sweet,  gentle voice.  Although she couldn’t quite remember ever hearing such a sugary sweet, happy hilt to her friend’s tone before.

“Willow!  Xander!  My buds are here!  I love my buds!�

Buffy was waving enthusiastically and jumping up and down, her ponytailswishing her golden locks around, creating what Willow thought resembled ahalo.  < God, just when I don’t think she can look anymoregorgeous >   Willow stopped her train of thought as she took in Buffy’s enthusiastic comment. < She loves her buds?  Andthat included me, cause well,  she said my name.   And Xander and I are the only ones here she is friends with, hence buds.  So does that mean she loves me?  Ok Rosenberg, disengage babble mode, she can’t love you, you’ve only known her how long?    But I think I’m in love with her, so I guess I’m proof that you can love that quickly.  But I’m sure she didn’t mean it like that. God, didn’t I say disengage babble?! >  Willow managed to pull herself out of her inner mind spurt just as Buffy threw the head cheerleader into the wall of the gym.

Xander and Willow rushed over to Buffy, who was trying her best not to get thrown off the squad.  As Willow reached over to grab Buffy’s arm she instantly felt the tingle run through her, even though Buffy was wearing long sleeves.  Willow looked back from the head cheerleaderwho she could have sworn was smoking at the ears, to Buffy who was grinning away and her and Xander. < Man, double whammy.  I’m holding onto her and she’s smiling at me, all at the same time.  I think I could die happy right here. >  Willow broke herself away from her swoony thoughts once again, realizing that something was definitely off with her blonde friend.  If Willow hadn’t known better shewould have thought Buffy was tanked.  < Wait, do I know better?  Of course I do, Buffy would never come to school drunk, would she? > Xander grabbed onto Buffy’s right arm while Willow clung to the left, making sure to support the wobbly Slay
er as they walked out of the gym.  Buffy seemed to have contracted Willow’s babble, because in her inebriated state she seemed to really enjoy the same thing Willowthought of as a curse.

“Do you have any idea why I love you so Xander?�  Buffy rested her head on Xander’s shoulder, smiling that patented Buffy smile up at him. Willow felt a strong surge of jealousy flow through her.  < So she does have feelings for Xander?  Great, I guess I’m just gonna be a third wheel, story of my life, odd one out.  Come one Willow, something’s wrong with her.  Put your greenmonstery feelings aside for now! >

“We gotta get her to a…..â€?  Willow tried n
