Everything the night before had nearly felt like a dream when she woke up in the morning, but for once; she knew it wasn’t. At this point it was her fourth day here and each morning she had woken up to the same ceiling, the same bed and the same surroundings. Thoughts had been all consuming since the moment she got here, was there anything she could do in order to lighten the burden of everything that was going on around her? Maybe, maybe if she could just get her mind cleared for a little bit, get away from the situation then Tara could come back to all the problems, confusion and issues with a fresh perspective. With new ideas perhaps this would make a great deal more sense.

Showering and dressing in a pair of blue jeans, sneakers, and a earth colored top the blond witch then set out to somewhere she knew her mind could be cleared; the stables. The distance from the dorm to the stables was fairly short, it was highly unlikely that anyone would bother her there and realistically, if anyone else was there at all, she’d be surprised. Slipping into one end of the barn Tara moved up to a stall where a beautiful bay colored horse was sticking it’s white streaked nose out. Smiling softly at the animal she moved up, delicately extending her fingers before gently stroking the horses fur for a moment. With an idea striking her Tara glanced around, quickly finding horse grooming tools and a lead with halter. Retrieving them she securely fastened the halter around the head of the horse and attached the lead, bringing the miraculous creature out into the main hall of the barn.

Setting up with practiced motions the blond witch let all of the groom tools remain in the organizational bucket next to her as she set it on a foot step. Pulling out the body brush she carefully began to run the bristles through the horses fur. Thoughts began to vanish from her mind in an instant. This, was precisely what she had been needing. To get away from everyone and everything, just some time to her self, doing what she enjoyed in peace and quiet. There was almost no way this could be more perfect, well, there was one way. A sigh slipped from her lips as the horse turned its head to nuzzle her. Giving the animals nose a gentle stroke she smiled softly at it. “Sorry, didn’t mean to make you worry. I’ll, um, be ok.” Pushing the thought aside Tara forced her self to focus on what she was doing instead of everything else going on around her, allowing her mind to slip calmly into a state of limbo where only the motions of her body and the majestic creature she cared to mattered.

It was nice being able to be with Willow like this. Without the magic interfering. Granted magic was a strong part of both of their lives and Tara would never deny that, it flowed through their bodies with ease, yet at the same time it was a double bladed sword, something to love and be careful of at the same time. A smile spread over her lips at the kryptonite comment. Tara herself had never been a fan of comics but after being around Xander so much it was hard not to get the reference. “You’re welcome.” The signature half smile was given to the redheaded woman next to her as they continued to walk back towards the barn.

After laying down Tara didn’t mind the closeness, but Willow taking up her arm felt a bit strange. Not bad, but with all the confusion that was going on all ready with just being here… It was odd. Offering a weak smile the blond witch shifted her weight so that she could lay on her side to face the redhead but pulled the arm away from Willow slowly. “It’s, um, it’s ok.”

The look across the other woman’s face was a curious manner. Eyes examined the red head’s face as Tara searched for what was coming next. Emotions ran rampet within the other woman. Listening carefully brows furrowed, there was so much going on right now, and this. Touches, would offer comfort to the other woman… but there was still so much to deal with inside the blond witches own head right now. Thinking carefully she made sure to control her breathing until Will was done speaking. “I… I, um, right now. Not right this second. I mean.” A heavy sigh escaped her lips of frustration and brows furrowed further. “I, I understand and yes, it is awkward and… and I think if you… If you give me a little more time, to-to sort things out more, then… then yes, we can do that.” A weary smile was given to the other woman, she had just asked for a little space the night before. Time to figure out exactly what she was doing and where things were going to go, especially in this mess that they had been dumped into.

Brows furrowed again as she continued to lay on her side, facing Willow. Being close like this it was so, tempting to just kiss her. To feel those sweet lips on her own, remember how the others arms hugged her body when they embraced, the touches of the redhead when they made love. Memories floated in her mind causing her heart beat to pick up slightly. Licking over her lips to wet them Tara let out a slow and controlled breath. “You do. Um, push hard I mean. It’s… difficult for both of us you know Will. I never did this out of anger towards you. I did what I did out of my love for you Willow. It hurt me to leave but I knew I had to. For both of us.” Hesitantly the blond witch raised a hand, pausing for only a moment before caressing the other woman’s cheek gently with her fingers. “I hope you never doubted that…” Pausing she swallowed for a moment. “My love for you.”

Willow was terribly excited she knew the other woman was safe, blood pumped through her veins and her heart bated in her chest, Tara's energy was also high and pure as it always had been. She listened to the words coming off the other woman's supple lips taking in Tara's words and letting them process, this was difficult for the both of them, their reality was so different and now they were here in some strange world having to work through two very hard events together. She shook her head. “No, not this moment.” She smiled warm. “But you have to understand how hard this is for me, I've already gone through the break up once and to me it pales in comparison to losing you to the spirit world Tara. That's why I just want to touch you, to make sure you are still breathing, feel your chest heave against mine again. We are both struggling with two very different things here.” She paused for a moment.

“The fighting, the over use of magic, and you leavening are parts of our past and that's what they are to me our past, but for you they are our right now. Can you see where I'm coming from and why I am so eager?” She took a breath. “I don't know what time we have together more so then ever before...you leaving was what you had to do and I would have left me too.” She laughed lightly. When fingers were on her cheeks she took her hand and gently to Tara's to kiss the back of it. “Never, I never doubted your love for me, it's always been right here.” she took Tara's hand and placed it on her chest. “I never thought I'd see those blue eyes sparkle again, but I do. The darkness in me is gone I need you to believe..in me and us.”
