New Year: Everywhere

Sitting in the room looking at Tara, Willow frowned as she watched the blonde for a few moments. It was strange feeling something for the girl across from her. Willow didn't think she'd ever feel anything again after what happened with Oz.

Turn it inside out so I can see
The part of you that's drifting over me
And when I wake you're never there
And when I sleep you're everywhere
You're everywhere

Willow smiled softly at the realization that Tara was everywhere to her now. Tara had become so important in her life, so special. She seemed to be everywhere. In the sky, in the rain, in the dark, everywhere.

Tell me how I got this far
Tell me why you're here and who you are

Who was she? Willow always wondered that with how secretive Tara was. Willow wanted nothing more than to understand who Tara was.

Every time I look you're never there
And every time I see you're always there
Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes
Its you I see
You're everything I know
That makes me believe
I'm not alone

She knew that was the truth. She wasn't alone. Not with Tara here. Not with Tara around. Willow knew she had Buffy and Xander as well, but with Tara, she was never going to be alone again because Tara was everywhere to her.

I recognize the way you make me feel
I'm starting to think you might not be real

The things Tara made her feel surprised her. Oz had never made her feel this way. At least not this strongly.

I sense that now the waters getting deep
I try to wash the pain away from me
Away from me

Willow closed her eyes as she tried to force the pain of the breakup with Oz away. She wanted to prevent that pain with Tara.

Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes
Its you I see
You're everything I know
That makes me believe
I'm not alone
Let me touch your hand
Its then I understand
The beauty that's within
Its now that we begin
You always light my way
I hope there never comes a day
When no matter where I go
I always feel you so
Cause you're everywhere to me
And when I close my eyes
Its you I see
You're everything I know
That makes me believe
I'm not alone
Cause you're everywhere to me
And When I catch my breath
Its you I breathe
You're everything I know
That makes me believe
I'm not alone
Cause you're everyone I see
So tell me
Do you see me?

Willow looked at Tara for a few moments and watched as a crooked smile graced Tara's lips when she was caught staring at the blonde.

"Can we talk?" Willow asked softly, waiting in anticipation for Tara's answer.
