Summary: The morning after "Who Are You", in which I believe our girls make love the first time after the Nether Realm ritual.

Pairing: Willow/Tara

Rating: R

Author's Notes: Random fluffiness inspired by "The Harsh Light of Day" love scene between Parker and Buffy. For some reason, when I closed my eyes I saw our girls getting' it on, so I picked up on that.

Tara sighed and moved closer to Willow… or so she thought Willow was next to her until she was met with air. "Mmm…" she moaned softly, then blinked awake. The bed next to her was empty. She looked around; "Willow?" Where was she? Did she regret making love last night? Had she left her? "W-willow?"

"Right here."

Tara gave a little gasp and turned on her side to see Willow sitting in her chair wrapped in her bedspread, smiling at her. Her heart sighed in relief as she smiled back. "H-hi."

She caught a look at Willow's breasts and her mind did a playback of the night before when Willow had held her head to them as she….

Tara blushed as she looked at her girlfriend. Lover. She reminded herself, and a shiver went down her spine at the thought.

"H-how l-long have y-you been u-up?" she asked.

Willow shifted in her chair and replied, "About an hour. I like watching you sleep."

Tara sat up, holding the sheet to her chest.

"What are you doing?"

"W-what?"

"Let the sheet go. I like to look at you."

Tara bit her lip, then did as Willow asked. She felt the heat come to her cheeks as Willow's eyes darkened slightly, giving her the once-over.

"H-how are you feeling?

"Wonderful. Last night was… Tara, I don't really know what to say." Willow said, her Cheshire cat grin lighting up the room.

Tara smirked, "So I-I guess I was g-good, huh?"

"Very. You know, it's a little lonely in this chair. Care to join me?"

Tara got up and went to Willow and sat in her lap, snuggling into her shoulder while her girlfriend put her arms around her, the bedspread covering them both. They both sighed at the contact.

"Tara-snuggles in the morning. I could get used to this."

"I-I think I already h-have."

Aww, aren't they cute?
