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

Buffy was startled when Willow grabbed her into a fierce hug.  Both of
them were now crying.
Buffy, Im not going anywhere.  Okay?  Everything will be okay.

< I believe her.  If Willow says it will be all right, than it will. 
Caught up in my emotions much?  I almost let it slip. >
They were still hugging, not letting go.  Buffys hands were around
Willows waist.  Willows left hand stroked the back of Buffys head as
she whispered soothing words to Buffy.  Just mere moments ago Buffy was
comforting Willow, and now Willow was comforting her.
< Shes such an amazing person. > Buffy thought.

They both relished in the closeness, neither wanting to let go.  Both
wanting more, but both oblivious to each others needs.  Buffy buried her
face into the crook of Willows neck, leaning on her completely.  Their
bodies so very close together.  Buffy moved her head slightly so it was
resting on Willows shoulder.
< Goddess!  I want her so bad! >  Willow thought as she pulled Buffy
closer, if even possible, not knowing the kind of affect she was having on
Buffy.
Buffy gasped and her eyes shot open when Willow brought their bodies closer.

< This feels so good, to hold Willow, for her to hold me.  Our bodies are
so close.  Every part of us is touching, and I mean every part.  I
shouldnt be doing this.  Im taking advantage of her in the situation.  I
should stop&really, I should& >
Buffys hands, however, had a mind of their own.  Her hands slowly started
their journey upward from their hold on Willows waist.  Buffy lifted her
head, but not off of Willows shoulder.  She rested her chin there so they
were cheek to cheek.  Oh, so, slowly, fingers spread, touching as much of
Willow as possible at one time.  Still upward, up her back and then to her
shoulders.  Buffys fingers closed over the tops of Willows shoulders. 
She squeezed them gently.  Her fingers then ran the same course downwards
to the small of Willows back.
< What is she doing?  Oh&wow&that feels&so good. >

Willows breathing quickened as Buffys hands moved up her back.  On the
start of the second time of Buffys hands making their ascent, Buffy
snagged Willows shirt where it met her pants pulling it up slightly.  Her
fingers grazed the skin of Willows back.  Both girls gasped.  This was
when Willows hands began a path of their own.  The hand that had been
stroking Buffys hair slowly moved down to her back.  That same hand then
moved upward, under Buffys hair, straight to the back of her neck. 
Willow slid it under the collar of Buffys shirt, needing the contact with
flesh.  That hand was soon joined by Willows other hand.  Each thumb made
a slow circular motion just under Buffys ears.
< Oh goddess.  I have to be hallucinating, or&or dreaming.  Yeah, thats
it.  Im dreaming.  Its feels so good.  She feels so good.  Could she
possibly want this as much as I do?  Buffy has to make the first move. 
Okay, granted were bordering on naughty touching here.  Maybe Im just
making it out to be more than it really is.  I need here to make it
crystal clear.  I wont jeopardize our friendship&  I want her so bad
right now!  I just want to throw her on the bed and& I think Im gonna
faint. >
As if Buffy read her mind she choose that moment to slide both of her
hands under Willows shirt on the small of her back.
<Shes not pulling away, or freaking so& >

Buffy buried her head back into the crook of Willows neck.  Willow could
feel Buffys hot breath on her neck.  Just then she felt lips meet her
skin at the base of her jaw.  She gasped out loud and Buffy smiled against
her neck.
< Is that enough proof that she wants this too Rosenberg? >

Buffy continued slow, feather light kisses up the juncture of Willows
jaw.  Buffy felt Willows right hand slide up her neck, out of her collar,
down her shoulder and arm to her hand, which was still resting on the
small of Willows back.  It was there that Willow grabbed Buffys hand,
and interlocked their fingers.  At this motion Buffy lifted her head up
and pulled back a little bit, not enough to break contact, but enough to
look into Willows eyes.  Their eyes met.  Both silently asking if the
other wanted this, and both silently saying yes.  Buffy wanted to be
completely sure though, so she said it.
I love you Will.  It came as a whisper
So much, it hurts sometimes.  To be so close to you, but never close
enough.  Ive wanted to touch sometimes, for no reason at all, other than
the fact that I just wanted to.  Just to have the contact.  And sometimes
I would do it.  Id hold your hand, or hug you.  I was afraid that if you
knew, if you found out, then that would be it.  I couldnt lose your
friendship because of something like that, because I couldnt keep my
feelings in check.  Buffy said as she tried to fight a losing battle
against her tears.
And now, Buffy continued. having you in my arms like this, to just hold
you, is the best moment of my life&and I dont want it to end.
Willow was in shock, to say the least.

< She&she loves me?  And I was afraid of scaring her with my feelings for
her?  Holy crap!  Its definitely safe to say that thats not gonna
happen.  I want her now, naked, right on the bed thats behind me! >
I want to be with you.  Buffy continued speaking as Willow tried to
process everything.
I cant picture my life without you, and I never want to.  Buffy took a
much needed cleansing breath.
Oh God.  Listen to me.  Im sorry Will.  Im saying all this, and I dont
even know if you feel anything for me, other than friendship.  Youre so
beautiful, and smart, and powerful, and funny, and so amazing.  I know
youre into women and all, but I dont even know if Im considered
attractive to women, or heck, if Im even on the radar.  I dont mmmph.
Buffy was interrupted by Willows finger, which was casually moved from
where it was on Buffys neck to being slid up her jaw line, straight to
her lips.  Buffy looked at Willow with wide eyes, trying desperately not
to kiss her finger, or suck it into her mouth.  Willow stood there with a
smirk on her face.  Removing her finger from Buffys lips she spoke.
The babbling?  Scute, but& Its my trademark and&and&I love you too
Buffy.  Willow said sincerely.
< Sweet, simple, and straight to the point.  Wow!  I think that is the
first time Ive ever done that.  Maybe cause I want to finish what was
started earlier. >
With that, Buffy smiled like she couldnt believe what was happening. 
They locked eyes, drawing each other together slowly, faces centimeters
apart.  They could both feel each others breath on their lips.  Finally,
Willow closed the distance between them.  Their lips brushed gently,
almost cautiously at first.  It was sweet, tender, and chaste.
< Mmmmm&Willow lips.  So soft. >

Buffy pulled Willow closer as Willow put a hand on each side of Buffys
face.  They continued kissing, small soft kisses, but their passion for
one another grew quickly.  Willow ran her tongue along Buffys bottom lip.
Buffy opened her mouth, allowing Willows tongue in, meeting her own. 
They kissed for several minutes, just tasting each other with soft
caresses.  Willows hands found their way to Buffys hair.  Buffys,
however, ended up under Willows shirt at the small of her back once
again.  They broke off the kiss, gasping for air.
I want you so bad!  Buffy said, as she attacked Willows neck with
kisses up her jaw line until she reached her ear and sucked it into her
mouth.  Willow closed her eyes, and let out a small moan.  Buffy made her
way back down Willows throat, nipping and kissing her way.  She began
lifting up Willows shirt, when all of a sudden&
Buffy&Stop.
