Chapter 2 - Avoiding Contact
"Tara!" Willow yelled trying to get her friends attention. Tara suddenly stopped sighing as she did so. "Willow, hi!" Tara said with a fake smile. "Whats up? I've been looking for you, but you haven't been around," Willow said out of breath from running up to her friend. "Ummmm...I've been busy with class." Tara said lying. "Oh, if I didn't know better I'd think you were trying to avoid me!" Willow said jokingly. "Me? Uhhh...no," Tara said sweating. "Hahaha, Tara your so funny," Willow said. "Hehheh thanks," Tara said nervously. "Well I have to go to...class. Yea class heheh bye Willow," Tara said as she ran off down the hall. "She's been weird lately" Willow said dismissing it and walking to class.

Buffy walked down the hall to drama class which she convienatly had with Willow. ( I really messed up last night. It's not my fault though.I mean I'm just not used to hearing a girl say she likes another girl.) sigh (Especially when it's Willow.) Buffy thought as she sighed again for the hundreth time today.

"Okay class listen up!" Proffesor Garcia said. The whole room got quiet except for Buffy and Willow. "Willow, I'm sorry but I just haven't had the thought of you and another girl together before!" Buffy whispered loudly. "Oh so you think I'm a freak now huh?!" Willow stated more than asked. "No, I guess I just wasn't used to it." Buffy said trying to contain herself. "What's so wrong with me liking another girl that you weren't used to?" Willow asked. "I just didn't under-" Buffy was cut off by the teacher saying "Ms. Summers, Ms.Rosenburg is there something you would like to share with us?" "No Sir," Buffy and Willow said. "Okay then can we get on with the lesson now if you two are finished?" The professor asked. "Yes Sir," they said. They just sat there glaring at the teacher.

( I can't stop thinking about her) Tara thought. (Maybe I should call her,) Tara pondered. (NO! I can't I need time.)Tara sat there thinking of what to do for about five minutes until Willow's voice pulled her out of her thoughts. "Hey Tara!" Willow yelled. Tara turned around slowly. ( Okay I need to tell her I need some space ) Tara thought as she took a breath. " Hey! Whats up?" Willow asked concerned. "Will," Tara began. " Yea?" Willow said thinking that she was going to say that she loved her back. " I need a little time." Tara said nervously. " Time for what?" Willow said trying to play dumb. " You know what I mean. The note you wrote? I just need time. I don't like you like that. And I just need some time to myself for awhile. Do you understand?" Tara asked. Willow was on the verge of tears now. "Yea I completely (don't ) understand." Willow said with tears silently coming out of her eyes. " Okay well I'll call later," Tara suggested. "Okay well........bye!" Willow said fully sobbing now. "Will-" before Tara could get a word out Willow was gone "ow" Tara finished quietly. Tara then to started crying. ( Oh my God what have I done? ) Tara asked herself. ( I love her ) Tara thought sadly. ( I have to tell her ) Tara thought to herself as she ran back to her dorm to call Willow.

Willow ran down the halls of UC Sunnydale to get to her room, but she had a difficult time because her tears were blinding her. She finally got there and ran inside only to see Buffy on the bed. (A.N. They were at Buffy's house before not the dorm. ) " Willow what happened?" Buffy asked sadly. " She hates me " Willow sobbed. "It's okay Will," Buffy said patting her back. " I'm moving to New York, " Willow told her friend. " Will so maybe Tara doesn't love you back. But that doesn't mean that me and the scoobies don't. And maybe this is to drastic." Buffy said trying to calm her friend. I have to Buffy. It's the only way that I can be far away enough from her for her not to hate me. I ha-" Willow was cut off by the phone ringing. "Hello?" Buffy asked.

"Hi"-Tara

"Oh Tara hi "-Buffy

" Is Willow there?" -Tara

"Hold on a sec I'll check" -Buffy

"Will it's Tara she wants to talk to you," Buffy told her friend. " I'm not here," Willow said flatly.

"She's not here" - Buffy

"Oh okay" - Tara

"Bye"- Buffy

"Bye" - Tara

"Well if you want to move to NY I'll support you a 110% okay?" Buffy asked. "Thanks Buffy," Willow said smiling.
