The images of the last few days we had together, and the images of her death. The fact her life drained away, in this very room prove too much for me. I start to cry, the sobs wracking my body. I slowly sink to the ground, crying out my very soul. “Tara, why did they take you from me?”
Holy cow you are great at showing all of willows emotion! Its writing like this that touches the soul…
“Please,’ I whisper. I know it’s cryptic, but she understands, she’s my best friend. She walked over and pulls me into a hug. I wrap my arms around her and let her hold me. I need to be held, I just need to be held.
She pulls me close and talks softly, calming words, she’s almost babbling. Hey, that’s my job, but it’s working. I start to sob, letting my tears flow freely, she doesn’t shy away, just holds me. And that is what I need. I need to feel safe and loved.
I love how intuitive and wise buffy is in this. The character of buffy really bothered me on the show, just because she can be such a ditzy unfeeling dumbass..(sorry to any buffy lovers lol)..but I love how u portray her character in this fic. She cares about willow and is attuned to her, to what she needs, and shes just very empathetic and sensitive in this.
and for a person grieving...oftentimes being held, feeling safe and loved is just what they need...
I nod my head silently in agreement. She has that look on her face, the same one she sometimes gets with Dawn. Her mom look, the one she always bragged she patterned after my “resolve face”. I know better than to even try and argue with that. She seems satisfied, and tells me to get some rest.
Lol again great characterization with buffy, she has matured a lot taking care of dawn and now willow.
She had been so happy that night, so happy. I start to cry again. Lately that seems like all I do. I cry, I cry for the love I’ll never have. I cry for Tara.
Losing a loved one is always hard, but I think its so much more so when it’s a spouse or a lover. And then even MORE so when the two people involved have such a pure, deep, unending, unbreakable love as willow and tara do. I think that’s the kind of love we all search for, but also once we have it, our greatest fear is to lose it.
“I’m pregnant with Tara’s baby,” I state.
What a way to spring that on someone! Lol I can imagine the look on buffys face!
I flip the book to the right page, and start to prepare the spell. “Tara honey, everything’s gonna be ok, I’ll make it ok,” I whisper, holding back the tears. With that statement, I turn my full attention to the spell. This time I’m going all the way to the top.
UHHHHHHHHH OHHHHHHHHHH!!! I hope this ends well, though that’s kinda foreboding lol.
Youre willing to take the life of an innocent?
Are you?
Wow.
.How the hell do you expect me to decide between them? I love them both. Tara’s my soul mate, my love. This child, I love it already, it was created of both of us. I can’t choose,” I cry
I cannot even imagine…I think that would be one of the hardest choices in the world, great job showing willows dilemma, and more importantly her thoughts and feelings about that dilemma.
Part 15
OMGS! I was crying through this entire update! This is beautiful, wonderful writing! You take an issue and throw it at us..force us to feel for this couple and OMGS…you have such talent sarah.
But before the image fades totally, Willow sits up straight, pulling Tara up with her. “What’s wrong honey? Are you feeling sick again?” Tara asks.
“No, I’m ok,” Willow asks. “Uh Tara?”
“Yes honey?” she replies.
“Did she say twins?!” Willow shouts.
LMAO…of course they just now hear it.
All in all my dear, this was excellent! One of THE BEST fics I have EVER read..it is emotional, tender, sweet with light moments, and best of all…it ends happily!! GREAT JOB!!
