Kathubs sent me Tara/Willow + "Do you know what time it is?"
Tara rolled over in bed and smiled at the fake-sleeping redheaded woman next to her. Willow was many things, most of them very good and wonderful, but good pretending to sleep was not one of them.
"Willow." Tara said gently, putting her hand on her girlfriend's shoulder. "Do you know what time it is?" She rocked Willow's body gently.
"Nnnh. It's sleep time!" Willow said, her voice a combination of actual tiredness and fake tiredness.
"It's eight in the morning. You have class in an hour." Tara said. "I told you not to stay up working on that spell all night."
"I dun wanna wake up…" Willow groaned, throwing a hand up to block her eyes. Tara smiled. There was something absolutely adorable about Willow when she got like this. But… She did need to wake up.
"Will Sleeping Beauty wake up if I give her a kiss?" Tara teased.
"… maybe…" Willow said after a long moment. She rolled a little so she was lying on her back instead of her side, moving her hand so it wasn't on her face anymore.
Still smiling, Tara moved in an pressed a kiss to Willow's lips. It wasn't a light kiss, not even close, but it only lasted for a few seconds before she pulled away, ignoring Willow's pout.
"There isn't time for more… right now. You have to get dressed, eat breakfast and go to class." Willow pouted more. Leaning in towards Willow's ear, Tara added, her voice a playful whisper, "when you're done with classes today, if you really want to play Sleeping Beauty some more…" As Tara had thought it would, that had Willow sitting up. She sat back and watched, giggling a little at the rapidity with which Willow started getting ready.
