Chapter. 1
"Kennedy, I'm so happy that you're back in town for a visit but you know that I hate not being with Leila. Especially tonight, there is a full moon tonight and we both know that means demon-palooza." Willow whined as they walked towards The Bronze.
Kennedy stopped and turned Willow towards her, she knew that the redheaded witch was worried but Kennedy knew that there was nothing to worry about. She took Willow's hand in her own, trying to reassure her. "Buffy and the other slayers are on patrol tonight. Plus, Leila's being protected, it isn't like we left her at the house all alone. Everyone knows that if someone were to let something happen to her, they had better hide fast because not only will they have slayers after them, but also one very pissed off witch." Kennedy said trying to make Willow laugh. But when Willow didn't respond, Kennedy continued. "Will, I'm only in town for the next week, then I have to go back to Cleveland. My own team needs me and as shocking as this might be to hear, Faith needs me too. So how about we just have some fun tonight? No talking about anything to do with work. And don't worry, Leila will still love you tomorrow."
Willow turned to Kennedy and smiled. "You're right. So how do you like being on Faith's team? Must be different from our team here."
"You can sure say that again. In Cleveland, at least I have some say in what I do in relations to slaying. I can pretty much do what I want. Faith is awesome. We have very similar fighting styles so that makes thing pretty simple. If I had stayed here, I would never have had the chance to prove myself as a slayer. But I do miss some things about Sunnydale, like you."
"Ken…"
"I know. I know. No talking about the past tonight. We are here to have fun. And by the way, I talked to Leila and she agrees with me that you need to get out of the house more." Kennedy answered Willow's warning as they entered The Bronze.
"What did you talk to her about?" Willow asked, a little afraid to hear the answer. She began playing with the tips of her long red hair, nervously. Willow knew that there was never a way to predict what would come out of Kennedy's mouth.
Kennedy laughed at Willow's worried expression. "Relax, I didn't say anything that you would have to explain later. I just asked her for her permission to keep you out late tonight."
Willow sat down at the only empty table left and moved down the booth, allowing Kennedy to sit beside her. She laughed as Kennedy answered her question. "And did she give you her permission?"
Kennedy took Willow's face in her hands and gently kissed her on the lips. "As a matter of fact, she did. She did make me promise not to hurt you and I take that promise very seriously. You know that I would never hurt you intentionally, right?"
Willow brought her lips closer to Kennedy's and simply replied: "I know." She kissed the young slayer, who immediately took the opportunity to deepen the kiss.
They exchanged kisses until a waitress appeared to take their drink order. After placing their order, Kennedy turned back to Willow and said: "Tonight is going to be a good night. I'm getting some tongue action and I haven't even bought you a drink yet."
Willow blushed and laughed as she replied: "Yeah, as long as no demons decide to make an appearance."
"And as long as Leila doesn't get bored and decide to call. And now that I think of it, hand over your cell. If she calls and you answer, I'll never get you off the phone." Kennedy continued as their drinks arrived.
