Chapter 2

Tara found her way back with no troubles, but once she reached the house she didn't know what to do next. She just stood on the sidewalk in front of the house next door. She wasn't quite sure how long she was standing there for, she was kind of in a daze, but she quickly snapped out of it when she saw that Willow's friend, the one she had seen with her earlier, was walking towards her. Not really wanting to talk to her, because she didn't really want to know what was happening between them, the blonde was about to start moving away, but the girl reached her before she realized.

"Hi, are you ok? You don't really look with it." Tara surprised at how forward this girl was. Did Willow like that about her? Tara quickly shook all of those thoughts to the back of her head.

"Uh...No...I-I'm lost," Due to slow thinking, she couldn't really come up with a better story, so she thought she'd at least tell a little bit of truth. Maybe the best way to Willow would be through her...friend. It worked. Kennedy, as she found out her name was, invited her inside the house.

Willow was sitting on the couch in the lounge, which was to the left of the door in which they walked in. She looked up and Kennedy and Tara walked in. Tara still hadn't thought of a name for herself yet, as Tara was pretty strange for a guy's name. She was hoping they didn't ask her, but with no such luck.

"Hey Will, this is...uh...What's your name?" Kennedy and Willow both looked at him/her.

"Uh...Scott,"

"Willow, this is Scott. Scott, this is Willow," Kennedy introduced them, then took a seat on the couch next to Willow. "Oh hey! I recognize you! You were in our bush looking for your ring this morning," Tara/Scott nodded slightly. After that there was a moment of silence. That arkward sort.

"So...uhh...Where are you from?" Another detail Tara forgot to think about before coming in. "Uh...anywhere and e-everywhere...I t-travel a bit. I j-just was in...New York and before t-that I was i-in Sunnydale."

That's about the time the arkward silence crept back in. Willow made an "Oh," sound and Kennedy made a "Hmm," sound, but other than that, nothing was said for at least twenty seconds. Then Willow decided to break the silence with a comment that should have come before the twenty seconds.

"Really? We're from there." That comment was also followed by some slience, this time it wasn't so long as the front door opened and in walked Buffy, Dawn and Xander. "Hey there people!" He stopped when he was Scott/Tara.

"We have a guest! I'm Xander," He held out his hand to Scott. Tara's heart nearly stopped, besides Willow, these were the people she missed more than anyone and here they were introducing themselves to her. So she didn't look completely weird, Tara quickly shook Xander's hand before he put it away again.

"I'm Scott,"

"I'm Buffy and this is my sister dawn," Buffy also held out her hand to Scott/Tara and she/he shook that one too.

"I uh...j-just arrived here...i-in this town today a-and I was l-looking f-for a hotel o-or something, b-but I-I haven't found one y-yet," Tara's heart skipped a beat when Willow jumped at the chance to drive her/him to a hotel. The blonde thought Willow probably was wondering why she saw him/her in the bush earlier and then back at the house again now. Tara of course right.

"So...Did you really lose your ring this morning?" Tara didn't feel right about lying to anyone, let alone Willow, even though she had been doing in all day. She shook her head. "Why haven't you got any bags or clothes or anything?"

"I-I saw you t-the other day and I was too shy to come up a-and talk t-to you," Tara blurted that out and hoped that Willow had been out the other day. Willow seemed to think about this for a moment.

"Ooh! Was that the other night at Delerius?" Tara had no idea what Delerius was, but she decided to go along with it.

"Yeah." The car was full of arkwardness yet again as silence reared it's head again. Tara asked Willow to pull over and she got out. She watched as the red head drove away then looked around her. She still had no idea where she was or where a hotel was. She figured she could just ask someone else than risk getting asked any more questions.

TBC...

Again, I'm sorry for it's not-so-good writingness, but I just have to get into it. Once I get into it, it should get better.
