Willow and Buffy both headed to their bedrooms to change their 
clothes and get ready to go to the gallery and the mall.When Willow 
got to her bedroom she went over to her closet and she started trying 
to choose what she should wear.Willow wanted to wear something pretty 
but it also had to be practical since they would be riding the 
motorcycles.Willow had selected a blouse and was looking through her 
slacks when she heard the door to her bedroom being opened.Willow 
looked over toward the door and she saw Buffy walking toward her and 
Buffy was carrying the clothes she had selected to wear.Willow looked 
at the clothes that Buffy was carrying and she said you have got to 
be kidding.Buffy looked at Willow and she said did you or did you not 
tell me to wear something suitable for riding motorcycles.Willow said 
of course i did but i didnt mean the racing outfit that you ran out 
and bought after the motorcycles were delivered.Buffy smiled and she 
said well if i dont wear this what do you suggest i wear.Willow said 
what about blue jeans or slacks with a nice blouse.Buffy said ok and 
then she headed back toward her bedroom.After choosing the pants she 
would wear Willow headed to the bathroom with her clothes in 
hand.Willow hung the clothes on the side of the towel rack and then 
she walked over to the bathroom door and started to shut it.The door 
was an inch away from the doorframe when Buffy started pushing the 
door open.Willow looked at Buffy and she said hey this bathroom is 
taken go use one of the others.Buffy said uh huh i want to use this 
one.Willow said ok and then she stopped trying to keep Buffy 
out.Buffy walked into the bathroom and she laid the clothes she was 
going to wear on one side of the countertop.While Buffy was putting 
down her clothes Willow got her clothes off the towel rack and 
started for the door to head for another bathroom which she could 
use.Willow was almost out of the bathroom when Buffy who had noticed 
she was leaving wrapped her arms around her waist and said where do 
you think you are going.Willow said i am going to another bathroom 
since you are going to use this one.Buffy said no your not we are 
going to share this bathroom and she pulled Willow into the bathroom 
and kicked the door shut with her left foot.Willow looked at Buffy 
and she said Buffy i thought we had agreed that we have to be 
carefull about what we do around here and others at least until we 
have told Giles and the others that we are together.Buffy said we did 
agree and we will do so but there is no one here but Angel and he 
told me that he was going to get some sleep as i was heading to my 
bedroom after we got upstairs.Willow said we still cant do it here 
Buffy and Buffy said i know and i have no intention of us doing it 
here but we are going to do something we discussed earlier.Willow 
looked at Buffy and she said what are you talking about.Buffy said we 
both need to have a certain place on our bodies shaved and since no 
one but us is here thats awake its the perfect time to do 
it. 

Buffy and Willow took a shower together to save water and during so 
they washed each other's hair and then shaved each other.After drying 
their hair they quickly got dressed in the clothes they had chose to 
wear.As they walked out of the bathroom Willow remebered she needed 
to get her wallet and keys from her bedroom so she told Buffy that 
she had forgot something and she would meet her downstairs.Buffy said 
ok and then she headed for the staircase.Willow ran back to her room 
and she got her wallet and set of keys off the top of the 
dresser.Willow slid the set of keys into her pocket and then she 
opened her wallet up to check and see how much money was in it.Willow 
saw that there was only five dollars in her wallet so she walked over 
to the safe and unlocked it.Willow had only planned to get about 
sixty dollars out of the safe but there was only one fifty dollar 
bill which was the lowest numeration and she had to save that for the 
phone bill she had racked up from talking long distance to her 
parents who were somewhere in Europe on some kind of conference 
tour.Willow took out two one hundred dollar bills from the safe 
thinking that they could stop by a bank and get them changed into 
smaller bills.When she got downstairs she saw Buffy standing next to 
the foyer holding a leather bomber's jacket that was almost identical 
to the one she was wearing except that Buffy's jacket had a flight 
pin that the pilots from the united states armed forces wore in world 
war 2 on the left side of her jacket.Willow took the jacket and slid 
it on as they walked out of the house and headed for the garage.When 
they entered the garage Willow started walking over to the nails that 
the motorcycle keys were hung on and she said Buffy which motorcycle 
are you going to ride.Buffy said the ninja of course you know its my 
favorite of all of them.Willow said if its your favorite why didnt 
you ride it when you were chasing me earlier.Buffy looked at Willow 
like she was crazy and she said because i didnt want to run the risk 
of my ninja getting damaged out there on that dirt trail so i used 
the first other motorcycle i got to.Willow got the key for the ninja 
off one nail and tossed it to Buffy and then she reached for the key 
to the palamino scout which she herself 
liked. 

Twelve seconds later Buffy and Willow rode out of the garage on the 
two motorcycles and headed down the driveway toward the gate.Once 
outside the gate they headed for the gallery first because Buffy 
wanted to talk to her mother a few minutes before she met Cassandra 
so that her mother would be less likely to jump to conclusions or 
make rash decisions that they all might 
regret. 

When they reached the gallery Buffy asked willow to go look around 
the gallery while she had a talk with her mother and Willow said she 
would.Buffy and Willow split up once inside the gallery.Buffy headed 
back toward her mother's office because her mother would most likely 
be there or in the back room where the shipments were unpacked,items 
were authenticated,and pictures of the items along with a description 
of the items were taken and made and then they were sent to the 
gallery's insurance agency so the items could quickly be insured in 
case something happened to them.Buffy found her mother in her office 
scanning some pictures of items and a brief description of each of 
them into the gallery's computer so they could be posted on the 
Gallery's website.Buffy said hi mom and Joyce turned and looked over 
at Buffy.Joyce said hello Buffy what brings you here.Buffy said i 
think that we should have a talk before the meeting with 
Cassandra.Joyce said i would really like to buffy but i am quite busy 
and i must keep working if i want to close the gallery early.Buffy 
said mom i just dont want you jumping to conclusions or making rash 
decisions when Cassandra says something you dont like or dont 
understand.Joyce saw where Buffy was going and she said dont worry 
Buffy i will do my best to keep my cool and just listen to what she 
says. 

While Buffy was talking to her mother Willow was walking around the 
gallery looking at everything that was in the gallery that she hadnt 
seen the last time she had been there and she kept her mystic senses 
open carefully feeling out the new items making sure that none of 
them could be 
dangerous. 

Buffy was about to walk out of her mother's office when Joyce 
looked at her and saw that Buffy had a glow to her that she had not 
seen in a couple of years.Joyce said Buffy how are you and Willow 
doing.Buffy looked back at Joyce and she said we are doing fine of 
course.Joyce said no i mean how are the two of you doing 
together.Buffy swirled around to face her mother and she said how did 
you know.Joyce said Buffy i am your mother i know you better than you 
do yourself and i realized almost a year ago that both you and Willow 
loved each other but that neither of you were willing to acknowledge 
to yourselves or anyone else but i guess that has changed hasnt 
it.Buffy looked at her mother and just nodded yes.Joyce said i am so 
happy for both of you and then she asked where Willow was.Buffy said 
she is walking through the gallery looking at the new items thats 
here so that i could talk to you.Joyce said go get her i want to talk 
to both of you.
