Last Kisses

Plenty of magic

INT. BUFFY'S HOUSE - WILLOW'S ROOM - DAY
The soft light of morning filters through the window, creating a warm glow. Willow and Tara are in bed under the covers, glowing even warmer, slick with sweat and out of breath.
Willow: When did morning happen?
Tara: After the moon went down.
Willow laughs, kissing her soft and sensual. Deep love territory.


 

 

 

 


Willow: Mmm. I forgot how good this could feel. Us. Together. (a bit guiltily) Without the magic.
Tara: (soft) Oh, there was plenty of magic.
Willow smiles, snuggling closer. Totally at peace. Tara gently strokes her hair.


Better than good

Later in the same episode --
Willow and Tara hustle down the stairs, tousled and flushed, adjusting their clothes.
Willow: We're here! Ready for action -- uh, bad guy fighting action.
Buffy is by the coffee table, the evidence she managed to save from the Trio's lair piled on it. Dawn is perched on the coffee table, munching from a box of cereal.
Buffy: Oh, guys, you didn't have to -- I mean, if you want to be alone --
Willow: No, we're good.
Tara: We're better than good.
Tara can't help giving Willow the shy, sexy-thrilled smile. Willow returns it.
Buffy: Great.
Willow: (not listening) Super...
She kisses Tara. It quickly segues into grand passion. Buffy and Dawn are swept away in the joy of their rekindled romance.
Buffy: Awww.
Willow: Okay. We'll stop.
Dawn: You better not.

The Best Part

Later in the same episode --
INT. BUFFY'S HOUSE - WILLOW'S ROOM - DAY
Sunlight streams in. Willow and Tara are getting dressed.
Willow pulls on a white shirt.
Willow: Hey. Clothes.
Tara: Don't get too used to them.
Willow: Yes, ma'am.
Willow pulls her into a kiss. Soft, tender, totally in love.
Tara: Mmmm... Xander.
Willow: Okay, not quite the response I was fishing for.
Tara: No, he's here.
Tara goes to the window overlooking the backyard. Xander is walking up to Buffy down below.
Willow: Think they're making up?
Tara: I hope so.
She turns back to Willow, glowing in the morning sun.
Tara: That's the best part.
