Lilac is a good color! My study is painted in that color :)
Tara had thought about how her wife was going to react if she went into labour somewhere other than the house, but decided not to bring it up for fear of the panic it would probably ensue in the petite girl.

Probably a good idea :smash
The diaper genie sounds like a really cool invention (had to google it)!
Cant wait for **** Juliette!

TITLE: Frothy Goodness

AUTHOR: Laragh

CHAPTER RATING: PG-13

DISCLAIMER: I don’t own any of the characters, Joss does. I may totally disagree with what he did with them, but alas, he still owns them.

SUMMARY: They meet. They fall in love...I’m really bad at summaries. Happy, light reading.

SPOILERS: None. No demons, no hellmouth.

FEEDBACK: Go for it.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: Last chapter! Um, I realise this whole countdown thing may have been a little misleading...this is the last chapter, but I'll have an epilogue up tomorrow as well, so technically not the last update. On that note, I'll leave my heartfelt thanks for tomorrow's post but thanks to everyone who continues to read

Part 51


******


Willow ran upstairs and came back with her contingency plan, reading down it.


“Okay, okay, it’s 7.10pm so…take Spring Av, down Hope…left at Olive…okay, okay. Bag, I need the bag!”


Willow ran upstairs again, while Tara, who had been shocked into silence that she was in labour, two weeks early, regained her senses and went into the hallway, just as the redhead came pounding down the stairs, hospital bag in hand.


She was repeating ‘having a baby, having a bag’ over and over again in what Tara could only assume was a mantra to keep herself calm, although it didn’t seem to be working as the redhead was rushing around frantically.


Tara was shocked again when her wife burst out the front door and into her Mercedes, starting it and driving off into the night. The brunette opened the front door and leant against the door frame, waiting, thankful she wasn’t having a contraction whilst the smaller girl was apparently freaking out.


Less than a minute later the car speed up outside the house, coming to an abrupt halt before Willow jumped out and ran towards the brunette.


“I’m so, so sorry, love, I’m so sorry,” she gushed, still in a panic.


Tara grabbed her shoulders and looked her straight in the eye.


“Willow, I need you to be calm for me, ‘cause I’m going to have a contraction any minute and I'm gonna need you for that. I know she’s early, but it’s all gonna be okay. Now, are you ready?”


“Gonna have a baby?” Willow asked, slightly dazed.


“Gonna have a baby,” Tara confirmed.


The redhead took a deep breath and grabbed her wife’s hand, leading them towards the car.


“You should get in the back to try and ease the contractions. I’m gonna have us in the hospital in eleven minutes tops and then I’m gonna be beside you, holding your hand for the entire time.”


Willow held the door open for the back seat and the brunette made herself comfortable while the smaller girl moved towards the driver seat, starting the engine. Almost as soon as they had started towards the hospital, Tara got a contraction, grabbing onto the headrest of the passenger seat as the pain shot through her.


“I know it’s hard, try and breath through it, honey,” Willow encouraged from the front, speeding up a bit in an effort to get to the hospital faster.


Tara took some deep breaths and the pain subsided, only to come back even stronger three minutes later. She groaned in agony, clutching her stomach.


Willow stayed quiet, wanting nothing more than to just hold her wife’s hand. A few minutes later she pulled into the hospital car park. She jumped out and opened the door for Tara, helping her out and into the hospital.


“Pregnant, labour, wife, help,” the redhead panted out when they got to the reception area.


A helpful nurse smiled and stood, grabbing a wheelchair before walking over to them. Tara gladly sat.


“How far apart are the contractions?” the nurse asked


“Three minutes,” Willow answered.


“Well then, lets get you up to maternity and get a doctor.”


The nurse wheeled Tara towards the elevator, Willow right beside her.


They arrived on the maternity ward and Tara got into a room and into a gown. Halfway through tying the string another big contraction hit her and she grabbed onto the metal sidebar of the bed. The redhead rushed over and quickly finished tying, before helping her wife into the bed, holding her hand the entire time.


“Willow,” the brunette almost sobbed, squeezing the hand in hers.


“You are so strong, baby. You can do this.”


“Strong like an Amazon?” Tara asked, the pain abating.


“You’ve got to stop watching all those Xena episodes,” Willow joked.


The brunette chuckled, her grip on the redhead’s hand loosening.


Willow dropped a kiss on her girl’s forehead just as a young female doctor walked in the room.


“Good evening, ladies, I’m Dr. Bartlett. I know you were expecting Dr. Robinson, but she’s away on holiday this week.”


“Yea, Tara’s two weeks early,” Willow said, warming to this new doctor instantly.


“So is it okay if I go ahead and see how we’re getting along?”


“Of course,” Tara nodded, lying back and putting her feet in the stirrups, the pain she was currently feeling overriding any embarrassment, unlike any other time she had been in this position.


A midwife came into the room and stood beside the doctor who was pulling on gloves. She began her examination.


“Eight centimetres dilated and fully effaced. You’re well on your way. How long have you been getting contractions?”


“I’ve been getting pains since yesterday – ow! – night, but I didn’t think it was anything,” Tara said through gritted teeth.


“And you’re water broke?”


“About thirty minutes ago,” Willow said as she felt the grip on her hand tighten again.


The doctor put her hands on the brunette’s stomach and felt around for a minute before Tara let out a loud scream, almost breaking her wife’s hand in the process.


“Drugs, drugs, give her drugs!” Willow shouted.


“I’m afraid she’s too far along, labour is progressing too quickly. The good news is your baby is in the correct position and at this rate I don’t think it will be long before you’re ready to deliver. I know the pain is intense, Tara, but it seems you’ll have a relatively short labour. I’ve delivered babies who’ve refused to come out for over forty hours.”


Tara barely registered what the doctor had said, her eyes were shut tight and she was concentrating solely on her breathing.


“Clare here is a midwife and she’s going to stay in here with you to monitor your progress. I’ll be back soon to see how we’re getting on.”


Dr. Bartlett handed Tara’s chart to Clare, a middle-aged midwife who had a friendly face and a warm smile and turned to leave the room.


“You’re doing very well, Tara,” Clare said as she put a blood pressure cuff on the brunette’s arm, along with a small clip on her finger and two straps around her abdomen, “These are just going to monitor your blood pressure, oxygen as well as the baby’s heart rate and your contractions.”


She pointed at a screen that was next to the bed.


“This shows us exactly what’s going on, and,” she flipped a switch, a strong heartbeat filling the room, “We can hear if the baby goes into distress.”


Willow nodded, fascinated at the science, but more concerned with her wife being in such pain.


“Can I get you anything, baby? Ice chips? Massage? Help you move into a more comfortable position?”


“Get. Your. Daughter. Out of me!” Tara almost screamed, eyes still shut tight.


“Um. Okay. Is that a yes to ice chips?” Willow asked nervously.


“Don’t you dare leave me.”


“I’ll get the ice,” Clare offered, leaving the room.


Tara whimpered again as a contraction tore through her.


“This is all your fault. You put her in me, now get her out, get her out,” she said hysterically, not caring that what she was saying wasn’t making any sense.


“Technically, honey, I didn’t -”


Tara shot the redhead a death glare, stopping her mid-sentence. Willow leaned down so she was addressing the brunette’s stomach.


“Okay, baby girl, you need to come out soon. Please. Before your Mama turns into a homicidal maniac,” she said the last part under her breath, but was apparently not quiet enough.


“I heard that.”


Willow straightened up and looked her wife in the eye.


“I’m sorry. But what you’re doing is so amazing. Just a little longer and we can see our daughter, our little girl.”


“Willow, I can’t do this,” the brunette sobbed.


“We can do this. Remember your letter? We can do anything together, our family, that’s what you told me. We can get through anything.”


Clare watched from the doorway as the redhead leaned and tenderly kissed her wife, smiling at the loving interaction. When they pulled apart, she entered the room, ice chips in hand and gave them to Willow. The smaller girl offered some chips to Tara who took them gratefully.


Time passed in a flurry of beeping, painful groans and gentle words of encouragement until finally Dr. Bartlett, after a examination, uttered the words that Tara had been both dreading and looking forward to all night.


“It’s time to push.”


Willow took one of Tara’s hands between both of hers and gave her a reassuring look as the doctor continued talking.


“I’m going to count down from three and then I want you to start pushing as hard as you can, okay?”


Tara nodded her understanding and braced herself.


“Three…two…one.”


Tara pushed with all her might, squeezing Willow’s hand on one side of her and the metal bar on the bed with the other.


“You’re doing great, Tara, I can see the head. Another big push for me now.”


Tara pushed again as Willow whispered in her ear.


“I love you so much, you are so beautiful, I love you, I love you.”


“Almost there, Tara. One last push and you can meet your baby.”


Tara took a deep breath and pushed as hard as could, exhaling and collapsing back on the bed as she felt a kind of relaxation and vaguely heard the sound of cries, the rush of blood in her head making listening very difficult. Less than a second later, she realised it was her baby that was crying and all her senses came back. She looked up at her wife who was crying, then down to see a rather large baby being cleaned off and checked over.


Before she even had time to register it, the baby was wrapped in a blanket and lying in her arms, Willow standing beside her, looking down in awe.


“Will, look. A redhead,” Tara said in wonder, tracing the outline of the tuft of red hair the baby in her arms had. The baby gurgled and looked up between her two mothers.


“Your eyes,” Willow said quietly, “She has your eyes. They’re the exact same shade as yours.”


They both continued looking down, just staring at their daughter in complete amazement. A nurse wrote something on Tara’s chart, before putting it back on the bed frame with a loud ‘metal against metal’ sound.


“23 inches and 10.5 pounds. That’s a big girl you’ve got there.”


“10 and a half pounds?!” Willow asked, turning to her wife, “You are the most amazing woman in the world.”


Tara smiled, feeling nothing but joy as she continued to cradle the life in her arms.


“Do you have a name chosen yet?” the nurse asked again.


“Um, yea,” Willow answered, letting her gaze drop to her daughter once again, stroking her cheek, ”Welcome to the world Emma Juliette Rosenberg-Maclay.”


***


A few hours later, the couple were alone in the hospital room, both sitting up in the bed, Willow holding their sleeping daughter between them. Tara was exhausted from the physical strain that the labour had been but couldn’t bring herself to sleep when she could be sitting with her family instead.


“I still can’t believe we made this,” she said softly, not wanting to wake the baby.


“I can’t believe she’s here. She’s so tiny.”


“Tiny, yea. You’re not the one who pushed her out of you.”


Willow turned, careful not to disturb the sleeping girl in her arms and kissed her wife.


“Thank you for giving me a family.”


“Thank you for being a part of our family,” Tara said with a loving smile, then smirked, “I don’t know how I’m gonna deal with two redheads from now on.”


“I can’t promise we won’t gang up on you sometimes…” Willow joked quietly.


The family fell into a silence, parents watching the steady breathing of their newborn until Willow broke the quiet a few minutes later.


“It’s funny, isn’t it? I mean, our story, us, it started at Emma’s. And now with this little Emma, it’s like we could begin a whole new book.”

Haha, Willow got a point there :P
But I guess no one has told Willow that all babies have blue eyes (still sweet that she has Tara's eyes). :smash
Love the name!! :pinky

Emma Juliette Rosenberg-Maclay.
OOOOO, I like the sound of that.
It represents, as Douglas Adams called it, the fundamental interconnectedness of all things.
Their story has come full circle as their daughter is the living embodiment of the place which brought them together.
One's name is invested with power and little Emma will shine like all the tomorrows rolled into one package.
Thank you for taking us on this wonderful journey.

Epilogue


******


One Year Later



“You got the camera, sweetie?” Tara asked as she entered the kitchen.


“On the counter,” Willow answered as she put the single candle on the circular cake in front of her, decorated with pink icing.


The still-brunette, having decided to forgo dying her hair again when Willow had told her she preferred the darker shade, walked up to the her wife and wrapped her arms around her waist, placing a kiss on the girl’s neck.


Willow leaned back into the embrace as they both stared out the window into their back garden, watching their family and friends talking amongst themselves and playing with their daughter.


Emma was currently sitting in her high chair, looking around the garden and slapping her hands excitedly on her tray. Her red hair was glinting against the California sun and her still-the-same-shade-as-Tara's blue eyes were shining brightly.


“Can’t believe our little girl is a year old already,” Willow said, stroking the hands resting on her waist.


“Time really flew, didn’t it?”


“I’ll say.”


Tara had taken three months maternity leave and Willow had gotten two months under the Second-Parent Leave policy that the brunette had helped implement, before she’d even met her wife. When that time was nearing it’s end, the couple had discussed it and after talking with her boss, it had been decided that Willow would work from home, not needing to be in the office to complete her programming. She had had to take a minor pay cut, but they had compared the cost against childcare and their finances worked out better this way. Besides, both women were much happier having one of them at home with the baby and anyway, Willow’s work took up relatively little of her time and she loved being able to care for her child.


“You know, our daughter is currently preoccupied and being cared for by a whole host of people who love her…” Willow said, turning in her wife’s arms.


“You mean we have a few minutes to ourselves?”


The redhead nodded. Tara glanced out the window to see everyone enjoying the party. She spotted the now-married Buffy, who had had a spring wedding with Willow, Tara and Anya as bridesmaids and Emma playing the role of ring bearer, her inability to walk, having just been six months old at the time, stopping her from being a flower girl. The baby had quietly sat in Willow’s arms, holding the rings throughout the entire ceremony. Buffy was currently playing ‘peek-a-boo’ with her goddaughter, Emma happily engaging with the blonde.


“Upstairs, now,” Tara said, pulling the redhead by the hand towards the hallway and up the stairs.


Despite the little sleep both of them had gotten since Emma was born, they had both been determined to make time for each other and after the initial six-week period that Tara had been told to rest before starting sexual activities again, they took any opportunity they got to be with each other. While the spontaneity of their lovemaking had changed considerably, the frequency had changed very little and neither woman ever felt less than completely satisfied with that aspect of their relationship.


Closing their bedroom door behind them, Tara flicked the lock and pushed her wife towards the bed. Willow fell gracefully onto the bed and kicked her shoes off.


“C’mere baby, wanna feel you.”


Tara made her way to the bed, slipping off her flip-flops as she went. She crawled on top her wife, holding herself up on her forearms and leaned down to kiss the girl deeply.


Willow, wasting no time, started unbuttoning the brunette’s shirt, moving her fingers deftly and quickly before unhooking the front clasp of her bra and firmly cupping the taller girl’s breasts.


Tara threw her head back at the sensation, breaking the kiss in the process and the redhead took the opportunity of her own mouth being free to scoot herself under her wife and suck on a nipple.


“Oh god, Willow.”


Willow switched breasts, continuing her oral assaults as the taller girl moaned above her.


“Get back…mmmhhh…up here, Will.”


Willow reluctantly released the breast she was playing with and slid back up the bed, like she coming out from under a car.


Tara leaned down to lick her wife’s lips sensually whilst bringing one hand between them, undoing her own belt buckle and popping the button on the redhead’s jeans. Willow wrapped her lips around Tara’s tongue and sucked on it.


The brunette slipped her hand inside the other girl’s jeans and past her panties, gliding two fingers into her wetness.


“Ohhh baby,” Willow said, revelling in the intimate touch and brought her own hands inside her wife’s pants.


Without warning, Tara brought her hand down and thrust two fingers inside the redhead.


“Shit! Fuck, that’s good.”


******


“Where are Willow and Tara? I thought they went in to get the cake,” Sheila asked Anya, who had taken over ‘peek-a-boo’ duties from Buffy.


“They probably went upstairs for a quickie,” Anya replied casually, not taking her attention away from her goddaughter, and therefore not noticing the horrified expression on Sheila’s face, “Can you say ‘my mommies are having an orgasm’, Emma? Or-ga-sm.’


******


“So close, Willow, so close,” Tara panted, both of them now thrusting deeply inside each other.


“Right there, that’s it, baby, right there,” Willow responded as she felt her wife begin to thrust against her sweet spot.


The brunette started an attack on the redhead’s neck, sucking and licking any piece of flesh she could find.


She brought her spare hand up to the hem of Willow’s shirt, bunching it upwards, taking the fabric of her bra with it, letting the material hang just below her neck. She ducked her head and took the entire left breast in her mouth, flicking her tongue over the nipple and feeling it harden.


“Just a little more…” Willow said in a loud whisper, feeling herself teetering on the edge, “Please, Tara, make me come.”


Tara, almost completely consumed by her own pleasure, knew she was just seconds away from reaching her own peak. She heard the pleading tone and felt a hand push against her head. She bit down on the nipple in her mouth and felt Willow stiffen under her instantly.


“Coming, baby…TAARRAA!”


She raised her head so she could watch her wife come. Feeling both the contractions around her fingers and looking at the complete ecstasy gracing the girl’s face was enough to set off Tara’s own orgasm


She shuddered as it ripped through her, hard and fast. She collapsed on top of the redhead, completely breathless, becoming aware of surroundings again a few minutes later when she felt Willow stroking her hair.


She raised her to look into smiling eyes.


“Welcome back,” Willow said, grinning.


Tara leaned down for a sweet kiss, before pulling back and resting her head just under her wife’s chin. Willow started stroking her hair again.


“Are we the worst parents in the world? Leaving our one year olds birthday party to make love?” the redhead asked.


“Emma likes when she has happy mommies and not frustrated mommies. And she’s been lavished with attention down there anyway.”


“Yea…”


Tara propped her self up on one elbow and left a series of short, loving kisses on her wife’s lips before jumping off the bed.


She started readjusting her loosened clothes, Willow standing up and doing the same. Quickly brushing through her hair, she went to the bathroom, splashing her face with some cold water. The redhead used the sink when she was done, her hair neatly pushed behind her ears as Tara waited. They walked downstairs hand-in-hand, arriving back in the same position that had started their impromptu lovemaking, standing in front of the cake, the brunette’s arms wrapped around the smaller girl’s waist as they looked out the window, their party guests in much the same arrangement they had been before, seemingly oblivious to what had just gone on inside the house.


“You got a lighter for the candle?” Tara asked.


“With the camera,” Willow answered, pointing to both the items.


Tara reached over and grabbed the lighter, handing it to the redhead who lit the large ‘1’-shaped candle.


“You take the cake, I’ll get the camera,” Willow continued, extracting herself from her wife’s arms and grabbing the camera.


Tara picked up the cake and the couple walked out the back door.


“Does my Mom look a little pale to you?” Willow whispered when she smiled at Sheila, who averted her gaze and wringed her hands nervously.


Tara looked over at her mother-in-law, who did look a little out of sorts.


She shrugged, not knowing what was wrong and let her gaze fall to her daughter. She stopped in her tracks and balanced the cake with one hand, using the other to stop her wife.


“What is it?” Willow asked.


“Look at her. Just for a second, look at that beautiful baby girl.”


Willow looked at the baby and instantly knew what the brunette was trying to say. Their little girl was looking right at her and Tara with a mixture of adoration and simple joy that they were her parents. Willow’s heart swelled with love and she looked at the taller girl, who was looking back with a similar look her daughter had just given her, adoration and simple joy that she was her wife. Caught up in the emotion, she leaned over and kissed the brunette with all the love she had.


Pulling back, she saw Anya give her a thumbs-up sign and instead of blushing, like she normally would, she held her head high and gave a thumbs-up sign right back, proud of her family, proud of the love they had.


The couple walked towards Emma’s highchair, everyone else crowding around to sing Happy Birthday.


Happy Birthday To You
Happy Birthday To You
Happy Birthday Dear Emma
Happy Birthday To You



Tara put the cake on the baby’s highchair table, while Willow got the camera ready. Emma looked at the cake for a few moments, as if contemplating it’s very existence, before digging her hands into it and smearing it all over her face, just as Willow clicked the button and captured the moment on film.


She pressed the review button on the camera, looking at the photo she had just taken, a photo she knew mirrored the two photographs of a one-year-old Willow and Tara in the same position, that were displayed proudly together in their living room. She turned to her wife, grinning.


“Tare, I think we’re gonna need a bigger frame.”

Good that Willow can work from home! Having worked as an aupair myself (which I loved, dont get me wrong) I would never dream of placing my kids into someone's else hands. You just miss too much.
Hihi, those two are naughty... sneaking off for a quickie while they have company... Also love that Anya was spot-on about where they went :P
A perfect ending to a perfect story :pinky Thank you so much for sharing with us.

A very contented and beautiful way to end this wonderful story.
Willow, Tara, and Emma, basking in the reflected glow from each other as they all give thanks to be blessed with each other.
Willow and Tara are ssensitive enough to each other's needs to know they need to always make time for each other, and it's not like Emma was left in the company of strangers.

I read about half of this yesterday, went to bed at 12:30, got up, came straight to the computer, and finished it xD

I loved this- it was so cute, and it was a nice change from the angst-y fanfics I usually read/write. (*Guilty of writing angst*) I laughed so hard I cried at some parts, and you had all the characters spot on. Willow and Tara were so sweet to each other...it was perfect, really.

Amazing job! I'm kinda sad it's over...but I hope to read any future fanfics you put up! ^.^

Hi there! I finally got around to this wonderful story, and just wanted to tell you that I absolutely loved it. You did an amazing job of conveying how much these two really love each other. A fantastic mixture of sweetness and hotness and humor in all the right places. I can't wait to read more from you soon.
