Chapter 1:

Tara works quickly behind the bar, trying to tend to the patrons both dead and alive. The bass coming from the speakers vibrate the glasses Tara desperately clings to so she wont drop them. She feelss eyes upon her as she works feverishly, she know it can only be one person, and that person is the one that she is trying to impress the most. It had been a month since the escape from the authority, a month since the kiss, a month since she felt the touch of her maker, a month since she truely, truely feel head over heels in love with the very creature she, herself despised not long before that. The bar had calmed down, most of the patrons were drunk and dancing on the dance floor and most of the fangbangers had found them a prize and were leaving the bar.

"I wish she would quit looking at me" Tara excalims to Jessica who sitting at the edge of the bar

"who are you talking about" Jessica answers back

"Who do you think, stupid?" Tara barks back

"OHH, pam. I thought you were like in love with her or whatever, and you liked her looking at you?" Jessica replies

"I am and I do, well I think I am, hell I dont know what I think anymore, she wont even talk to me and when she does its a smart ass remark, or a put down" Tara chokes out, past the growing lump in her

"So you all have not talked about the kiss in the authority, at all?" Jessica askes in beweliderment

"No, nothing. When when we were locked up in the safe house for 2 weeks, she acted like it never happened, so I never pushed the subject." tara exclaims

"Then why wont you talk to her about it? Maybe she afraid to experss her feelings?" Jessica says back

"Are you fucking crazy, the last thing I need is to be pend up to the wall by the troat. You remember what happened when I feed in public dont you" Tara Chuckled

Jessica smirked a little over the rim of a wine glass of true blood. "Yeah I rememer, it wasnt very pretty" Jessica Chuckled

"You damn right it wasnt, girl that bitch is crazy, and I aint taken no chances" Tara said with a smile

"Seriously though Tara, you cannot fight these feeling or pretend it never happened" Jessica says with seriousness in her voice

Before she could reply to the comment to Jessicas, Tara found her self nose to nose with her maker " Don't you have anything better to fucking do then flap that jaw all night" Pam said with a devilish grin.

" We arent busy and I was taking a break, whats the big fucking deal?" Tara snapped back

"The big fucking deal is that I dont pay you to talk and take breaks" Pam hissed

"You dont fucking pay me at all" Tara barked back

"Get the fuck back to work, dont make me command you" Pam stated as she was walk away

"Bitch" Tara whispered

"I heard that" Pam stated as she turn the corner to her office

"Geeze, its worse than I thought" exclaimed Jessica as she watched Tara choke back the tears

"Yeah" tara says sheepisly

The bar eventaully dies completely out around 3 am. Tara begins her clean up around the bar, as Ginger begnnings to sweep and push in chairs. Jessica retreats to the basement to watch TV, before dawn appraoches. Tara send Ginger home tell her she will finsh with the clean up. The more Tara has to do, the more her mind doesnt think about Pam and her sharp words. Eventaully Tara is done with the clean up and heads to the office. The office door is open so Tara just stands in the door way watching Pam shifted throught the mound of reciepts.

Damn she is beautiful Tara says to herself

"Is there anything I can help you with" pam exlaims

Tara snaps out of her trace, "No, I just wanted to tell you that the bar was clean and that I am going to bed"

"You dont need to tell me when you are going to bed Tara, you a big fuck girl, well at least you should be" Pam snaps

Well tara she says your a big girl, maybe its time to really start acting like one and tell her how you feel Tara says to her self as she clinches her fists. Pam can feel the rage and emtions poor from tara through their bond and she looks up from her work.

"Was there something else you needed to say tara? Pam says sarcasticly

Tara took an unessary ragged breath and said "why havent we ever talked about what happend at the authority"

"How did I know you were going to ask me that, I heard you and the Ginger retarted talking this evening" Pam hissed

"Why are you always calling people names" Tara question

"Thats who I am darlin' if you dont like it tough" Pam exclaimed

"What the fuck ever Pam, answer my question" Tara hissed

In an instant Pam was in Taras face "I dont have to answer shit ya hear, now get the fuck outta my face and my office"

"Fuck you, you colded hearted bitch" Tara growled through her teeth

Tara with her vamp speed, left the room and slammed the door behind her. Pam looked at the space in which tara and once stood and sighed she could feel the pain that tara was projecting through their bond and was slammed with a sensation guity, it hit her like a tone of bricks. She sat back down at her desk staring at the pile of papers that lay before her.

Keep going pam, keep pushing her away and you will actually lose her forever. Pam thinks to herself as the wave of emotions start pooring over her. Some from tara, but mostly from her.
