"What?" Willow replies faintly. She could've sworn that Buffy just announced that she was in love with her. But that wasn't possible, was it?

"I know. It's out of left field and...and you and Tara. Back together again. Big wow. And congrats. Really. I just.." Buffy sighs again. "..I need to be completely honest, right now..with you...and with myself. First. I had to tell you about Spike. Not cause he matters, but because I could never-ever keep something. so huge-ah-in-a waay negative way, from you. and I never want it with Spike, but he played on my insecurities...and.. You know what? It doesn't matter, cuz well, here we are." Buffy finishes lamely. Both of Buffy eyes look skyward, as if to roll them at herself.

"Ahh..boy..huh..I.." Willow stammers, frustrated that, now suddenly after arealization has been made she no longer is able to vocalize what she wants..or needs. Buffy sensing Willow's frustrations and discomfort, pulls free of Willow's grasp, but just as the Red Head is about to protest, the blondepulls her into a stand and then into a hug. a Soft, inaudible sign falls from the slayer's lips, slowly taking shape into a smile. This is where the blonde belongs, is meant to be. The hacker's eyes close, a look of shear contentment radiates from her face. Pulling away from the hacker, Buffy smilebroadens.

"Will. It's ok, really. Just as long as I still can have your friendship, it's ok. I know, I sort of took a chance by letting you know about my feelings, but I think in order to get my life back in order, I can't run from my emotions any more."

Willow's face goes from contentment for being in her best friend's arms to one of utter sadness from Buffy's words. "Buffy! Please. You never-ever have to worry about our friendship. You have me, I mean it! As long as I'm breathing. Boy. It just that, well..see..Tara came over, and she was all like...'How are you?" and I was like..Fine. Then she was all..you seem upset...I saw you at the Quad the other day leaving...Yada..yada...yada...and...Buffy?" While Willow's babble had taken a hold over her, Buffy's face morphed into one of complete happiness. It had been sometime that Willow had seen Buffy smile like that, And now it was directed at her.

"It just well..God!..I really miss your babble!" Buffy suddenly takes Willow into her arms again. " I miss..this..us. you-know friends. I know, you and Tara. I'm..ahh..cool with it." Buffy says.

I will meet you in some place
Where the light lends itself to soft response
I will let you undress me
But I warn you, I have thorns like any rose
And you could hurt me using the sharp end of what you say
But I am lost to you now
There's no amount of reason to save me

So break me
Take me
Just let me fill your arms again
Break me
I'll let you make me
Just let me feel your love again


"Buffy! I..oh..Well Thanks, I miss this too, and Argh! Stop distracting me!Willow stammers out, smiling letting Buffy know that the Red head isn't sore at her.

"Ok. Sorry, Will. My bad. So..Tara saw you at the Quad, and what? She came over to get back together?" Buffy's heart takes a little lunge as the wordspass her mouth. A bitter happiness takes a hold of her, wondering if this was how Xander felt all those times that she had spoken about Angel. Of course she was ecstatic that her and the hacker were on the mend and getting close again like they were in high school, but sad that she'll never have Willow's heart for more than friendship.

"NO. Tara..and I.." Willow answers, not understanding why it was taking herso long to get out what she had been trying to say for years. As Willow collects her thoughts, she is interrupted by the pounding at the door.

"Buffy! Please Open up! It's Angel!" the voice outside the door yells.

Willow's vision swims, she promptly faints. Buffy, with slayer reflexes catches her.

Feels like being underwater
Now that I've let go and lost control
Water kisses fill my mouth
Water fills my soul

So break me
Take me
Just let me fill your arms again
Break me
I'll let you make me
Just met me feel your love again
