The kiss would have lasted much longer if they didn't need to breathe. They had to stop, but it was very much involuntarily. Buffy stared into Seeley's eyes, gently touching his face, like she was trying to convince herself she really was awake and it was all really happening.

"I can't believe you're here."-she whispered eventually. "And can't believe you still have that T-shirt."

"Of course I still have it. I still have those hockey tickets, too. "-he smiled and looked so incredibly adorable, Buffy just had to kiss him again. His lips tasted so good, and she didn't wanna stop kissing him- ever again. Screw oxygen.

"Buffy… when you kiss me like that, I just want to… We shouldn't. We should start over, slowly… God I sound like a woman, don't I?"- Seeley said, barely stopping himself from pinning her against the wall. She wasn't wearing much anyway, she was so sexy and his jeans suddenly felt very tight.

"I… Seeley, I've been dreaming about this for so long."

"As have I. That's why I think we should take things slowly; rebuild the trust and… god you're a tease!"-he couldn't help laughing when she jumped, wrapped her legs around his waist and kissed him again, wrapping her arms around his neck to keep the balance. And to kiss him easier.

He grabbed her ass and kissed her hard again. This time he did pin her against the wall and slid his hand under her silky pajamas top- sending shivers all over her body, which had longed for his touch for way too long.

Her breathing sped up a little; she nibbled on his neck and purred contentedly as he gently gripped her breast. She wasn't wearing a bra and he couldn't help moaning when he touched her and made her moan quietly.

"I love this t-shirt, but I want it off of you."-Buffy whispered and started slowly pulling it off.

Willow and Tara had gone to bed, to tuck Annie in and to talk a bit about their pretty amazing day in Disneyland, and they thought having a glass of wine in the living room would be perfect.

"I'll go ask Buffy if she wants to join us."-said Willow and Tara nodded and went downstairs to take glasses and a bottle of wine from the kitchen.

She was opening the bottle when Willow got to her and said "Buffy isn't in her room."

"She's not? Maybe she's in the bathroom?"-Tara suggested, but Willow just waved her head. She didn't like it; she just hoped that Buffy hadn't sneaked out to get drugs or anything, because Tara had told her about the whole Faith disaster.

"Think maybe I should go look for her. You stay here; I hope I'll be back soon. She couldn't have gone far."

Willow was in an orange tank top and shorts she slept in and she just put flip flops or and quietly exited the house.

She couldn't believe what she was seeing. She stood there and felt her cheeks redden a little, she didn't wanna interrupt, but she was so happy for Buffy that she let out a little excited squeal.

"Sorry, guys, didn't mean to… I was just… I'll be gone. You just…"- she rambled when Buffy and Seeley looked at her, both a bit breathless. She ran in the house, still making happy noises.

"What's up with you?"- Tara couldn't help smiling when she saw a huge grin on Willow's face. Plus, her cheeks were a bit rosy.

"Buffy, she's here… with Seeley! I kinda… I interrupted the make out session and ran back in."

Tara giggled, she also couldn't believe that Seeley was really there, and she looked through the window.

"Looks like you didn't interrupt them for more than two seconds. They're making out again."-Tara smiled, she couldn't really blame them.

"Well, sweetie… let's have a toast. For us and for those two lovebirds outside."-Willow smiled, sipped her wine and kissed Tara.

"Cheers, baby!"-Tara smiled and kissed her again. They sat on the couch, embraced each other and sipped their wine, enjoying.

"Seeley… maybe we… maybe we should… go say hi now that…"

"They know I'm here?"-he finished the sentence for her; she was too busy kissing his lips, neck and chest…

"Yeah… maybe we should."-he agreed, but didn't stop roaming his hands over her body.

"You're… the master of teasing."- Buffy whispered as he touched her through her little black thong, but he wouldn't take it off. He knew he wouldn't be able to control himself if he went that far, it was hard enough already…

"Let's be polite and say hi to Willow and Tara."-he whispered in her ear and gently placed her back on the ground.

"My god, you're gonna kill me."-she whispered and buttoned her shirt back up.

He put his T-shirt back on and kissed her once again before they entered the house.

Willow and Tara were kissing on the couch and Buffy and Seeley made a quiet coughing noise and two girls broke the kiss and jumped to greet Seeley, both so excited.

He hugged them and smiled, he'd really missed them, they were, next to Buffy, the best women in the world.

"I'm so happy! When I saw you, awww!"- Willow was hopping and grinning with excitement. Tara was a little calmer, but it was obvious she was really happy too.

"Let me pour you guys a glass of wine. We've already had a toast, but now it's your turn."-Tara said to Buffy and Seeley and brought two more glasses.

Seeley poured them wine and said: "Well, a toast for the best lesbian couple I've ever met"-he grinned to Tara and Willow, who kissed again, "And a toast for a new beginning for us!"-he said to Buffy, staring into her green eyes, which got a bit teary.

"I love you."- she whispered, feeling kinda overwhelmed by emotions.

They kissed slowly and sipped their wine, and then joined Willow and Tara on the couch. Buffy sat next to him, but he caught her around the waist, lifted her up and sat her on his lap.

"Awww…"- Willow was literally melting, she'd missed those two. They were the cutest and the goofiest couple back in the day, but so loyal and she knew they wouldn't mess things up this time.

Buffy was practically glowing. Her body was on fire, still tingling from his touch and she didn't know how to keep herself from kissing him wildly.

"It's so good to see you, ladies. I still can't believe I'm really here, it all happened so fast."

"I can't believe you're here either…"- Buffy said, smiling so widely. That smile made her look like she was seventeen again, and Seeley kissed her and said: "I am. And I'm taking you to DC with me, and not letting you out of my apartment for days."

She felt butterflies when he said that and she bit her lip not to say or do something too inappropriate.

"You know, guys, you don't have to be too polite… we wouldn't mind if you just went to bed."- Tara said, smiling cheekily. It was visible from Mars that they just wanted to enjoy each other now.

"Nooo, it's fine… This wine is really good, isn't it, Buffy?"

"Yeah, it is… very good. But, I am tired. I've been up since 5 and it's been a very eventful day."

Seeley shifted a little to get more comfortable and she could feel how hard he still was and she almost growled. The fact that his hand her resting on her thigh wasn't making it any easier.

Buffy moved her leg a little and Seeley noticed a tattoo on her ankle.

"That's my handwriting."-he said, surprised.

"Yeah, it is."-Buffy smiled. "I got that tattoo a year after I'd arrived to Paris. I had your letters and on one you wrote: 'B&S 4ever' and I had to get it tattooed."

"I remember that letter. I can't believe you got it tattooed."-he said, smiling. He was touched. He'd been talking to himself on the plane, about how he'd take it slow, how he wouldn't rush into it cause she might break his heart again, but now that he held her, and saw that tattoo and felt her kisses and body again, he knew there was no way he could go slowly.

He wanted her so much it hurt.

"Well, let's go to bed if you're tired."-he said and finished his wine. Buffy placed her glass, which was still almost full, on the table, said 'night' to her friends, pulled his hand and ran upstairs.
