Tara stayed balled up, watching Willow intently. She smiled a little, when the computer parts were mentioned, because Willow was such a nerd.
But she was trying to understand. It felt so much better for her to admit it to herself. Sunnydale was amazing, she could be herself without anyone asking her why she didn't have a boyfriend, or if she wanted kids or if she'd go out with her dad's golf partner's son. She ran away, basically. That made it easy on her.
Then Willow said it. Tara grinned wide. "Good for you, Willow. Admitting it to yourself, or someone else, that's a big step. But don't feel like I'm waiting on you." She would wait forever if she had to. "You don't have to hurry."
