Faith feels the need to break away, mainly to catch her breath "How about that ice cream?" Tara smiled and kissed her on the nose. "Do you know why I like you? I like you because you put my mind at ease and you treat me with respect. You came into my life, like this thunderstorm and throughout the years you've touched my heart and changed my life and now, it's like I'm addicted to you. I never thought I'd be in love like this, you knocked me off my feet and helped me up again."

Sometimes love does that, it comes into your life and it knocks you down and you just get right back up when it happens.

Faith had never thought that she'd fall as hard as she did. Tara was the only one, except for Buffy, who she could be herself around. Tara her her thinking about their life, a house and kids. Maybe they weren't meant to be and maybe it had just happened, but there was no question about the actual fact that, it was true love indeed.

It had all started with Faith having wanted someone to give her something, take her somewhere, do something with her, so that she would become some one new. She wasn't ashamed of that anymore.
She had learned how to take the good with the bad and the happy with the sad.
No longer did she have to ask herself 'was this the thing to do?' no maybe's or what ifs. This was, without a doubt, the right thing.

Faith pushed her back and positioned herself on top of her. "The things I thought you'd never know about me, were the things I guess you always understood." She pushed Tara's top all the way up, exposing her bra and started to leave a trail of wet kisses up her stomach. Tara tugged at Faith's shirt and in the process trying to drag her down to her level, desperate to touch, desperate to feel.

"If you kiss me, you must think I'm pretty." Faith lowered herself close enough for her lips to touch Tara's, who inhaled and was practically begging for more. "And if you think so, you must want to fuck me." Tara no longer saw ice cream in her future. "And if you want to fuck me it must mean you love me." Tara felt so safe underneath her lover, so safe and so strong. Faith had let go of her past, her past, her Buffy Summer centered past. "And if you fuck me it must mean you love me." As of now, Buffy no longer existed, There was just Tara now. "And if you love me you would never leave me, it's as simple as can be."

And she gave in to Tara's moans. Lowering herself completely, Tara arched her back as she grabbed Faith's waist to hold her grinding hips in place. "Right, I forgot. You wanted ice cream." She wiggled a bit and a wicked grin appeared on Faith's face as she leaned in to steal another kiss, their lips pressed together, tongues fighting for dominance.
Tara's whimpering and Faith's teasing, that is how it has always been and that's how it will continue being. "Fuck the ice cream." Tara managed to say in between the sloppy kisses. She bit Faith's lower lip, hard enough to draw blood and it did, but it didn't matter, not now, not ever.

It was times like these when Tara wished they could stay like this forever. Well aware that 'forever' did not truly exist, she wanted it to be similar to a fairly tale, a made up story, with a happy ending, because that's how her life was. Right now, in this moment, she was as happy as ever and she owed it all to Faith, her knight in shining armor.
