"Wow! That was... different."
"Different?"
"Yeah."
Willow noticed Tara's saddened expression.
"No... I meant it was not what I expected."
"It wasn't special?"
"Of course it was special! It was incredible!"
Tara's expression did not change.
"My first time with Oz, a lot of really bad stuff was going on. After we... did it, things changed. I ...we... were different. Now, everything has changed! It feels like the whole world is different."
"But all you said was, 'that was different', like it didn't mean anything, like it didn't matter..."
"Tara."
"Yeah?"
"Shut up and kiss me."
She did just that.
