Family

Tara kisses Willow hello when she walks into the house smiling at her red headed lover. As she sets her briefcase down and groaning as she slips out of her heels.

"Honey, why don't you sit down and I'll rub your feet for you." Willow states.

Smiling a lop sided smile Tara looks in the living room. "Oh, Goddess. Thank you." And plops herself down on the couch. "What else came today, besides the living room furniture?" Tara states without really looking around, just leaning her head back and closing her eyes.

"Well, we got the living room furniture we ordered, obviously. We also received the dining room furniture and the mattress and box springs. The actual bedroom furniture will be tomorrow. They didn't have room on the truck for all of it today." Willow eases down on the floor, pulling Tara's feet into her lap, lightly running her fingers up and down the arch of Tara's feet before working from the heel of one foot all the way through the toes, releasing all the stress. Repeating the massage on the other foot, to Tara's appreciative groans.

"So, if everything goes as planned, we will have a real house come tomorrow?" Tara grins her eyes still closed.

"Oh, yes. You could say that." Tara lifts her head and looks at her lover questioningly. "Umm. You didn't notice anything extra here in the living room?"

Tara looks around and seeing the huge plasma screen television hanging on the wall her eyes widen and look at Willow. "Willow, what?"

"Kelly." Willow states, shaking her head. "I made the mistake of mentioning to her yesterday when I showed her around the house that we hadn't bought a television yet. So, early this afternoon, a delivery van shows up, bringing in the television along with a complete surround sound system, DVD player, the works."

Looking around the room, Tara notices the speakers set up inconspicuously throughout the living room. "What are we going to do with her?" Tara asks exasperatedly.

Willow giggles. "We aren't going to do anything with her. I'm gonna sic Buffy on her."

Groaning Tara shakes her head "Won't do any good. I went to talk to Buffy on my lunch break and I couldn't keep her attention more than two seconds. She is completely besotted with my sister. I don't know if this is good or bad news." Tara grins at Willow. "Seeing the way Kelly is, and seeing the way Buffy reacts to her? Goddess."

Getting a huge grin on her face Willow gets up to sit next to Tara on the couch. "Makes you feel good to see both of them happy, doesn't it?"

"Actually ecstatic would be a better word for it. Kelly is just so different than everyone else. The brief period of time I actually was able to get Buffy to speak to me, it was completely mind melding. She was talking about how kind, caring, and sweet Kelly was then she made the comment about her being able to kiss and she was gone. I heard her groan lightly under her breath and she was just staring into outer space, like she was when I first sat down at her desk."

Willow starts giggling, snuggling into Tara's side. "Sounds like me when I realized that I loved you. I missed quite a few lectures thinking about a certain blue eyed blonde."

Tara pulls back in surprise. "My brainiac, 4.0 grade average, can't miss class actually daydreamed through lectures? I don't believe it."

Willow smiles, thinking about that time. "Oh, yeah. Happened quite a bit. As a matter of fact…" Leaning in and kissing Tara lovingly before setting her head back on her shoulder, Willow states "I still get like that quite frequently. I'll be in the middle of a program and the next thing I know, my mind is filled with blue eyes. I absolutely love you."

Tara pulls Willow in tighter to her side, kissing her lightly on the forehead. "I love you too, baby. Now. What are we going to do about Kelly?"

Laughing and shaking her head Willow states "Nothing. What can we do?"

"You might have a point. But she's got to stop this buying. It worries me that she's trying to make up for lost time." Tara frowns lightly.

"Actually, she isn't." Willow says as she gets up to grab the note that she hadn't shown Tara yet. "Here, read this."

Tears slowly falling from her eyes Tara looks at Willow. "Do you think they might be lucky enough to have what we have?"

Willow smiles a gentle smile, full of love. "I think it could be." Before leaning in and kissing Tara lightly. "We could be rotten and go over to their house and see what they're up to."

Tara starts laughing. "Nope. Not gonna happen. After the way Buffy answered the phone yesterday morning, I am NOT taking a chance of actually being within touching distance if we accidentally interrupt something. After their little act yesterday, I know something was going on, even though Buffy probably thinks she pulled it off. Telemarketers my ass." Tara states under her breath.

"Yeah, but you see. We owe Buffy for all the times she interrupted our Hot Monkey Loving over the years." Willow states pointing out the simple fact.

"The problem with that is, she never realized that she was interrupting something." Shoulders shaking with laughter Tara looks at Willow. "However, I think that is changing quick, with Kelly being here. Kelly will definitely open her eyes."

Willow pouts slightly, "No more clueless Buffy? What is the world coming too?"

Running her fingers through Willow's red locks Tara grins and kisses her lightly on the nose. "Yes, our little girl is finally growing up."

"Are you sure we can't go over there and pick on them?" Willow whines lightly. "We so owe Buffy. Please?"

Tara shakes her head laughing at her lovers pleading. "No, honey. Let's give them some time alone first. After a little while, it'll be fair game, okay?" Tara gives in a little, knowing Willow won't give up without a fight.

Smiling at the idea of future loving interuptus coming at the Slayer Willow gives in. "Okay. For now. Oh, Kelly called earlier this morning wanting to know if we want to go out for dinner tomorrow night. Do you think you'll feel up to it? I know with it being the week before Christmas break, the kids get a little more rambunctious."

Tara smiles at the thoughtfulness of her lover. "Dinner tomorrow sounds lovely. Oh, that reminds me." Tara gets up and grabs the phone before sitting back down again. Hitting the speed dial, while smiling at Willow, who has laid down on the couch with her head resting in her lap. Tara listens to Anya answer the phone.

"Hello Anya….Yes it's a wonderful day…She did?… Really?…. That's wonderful…Yes, she is a great person…Yes we're going to dinner tomorrow also…What?…What makes you say that?…Well, I guess if you're curious…No. You have to ask them yourselves…No, it's not any of our business…Okay Anya… See you tomorrow night. Goodbye." Laughing as she hangs up the phone Tara looks down at Willow and gently starts running her fingers through her hair, loving the soft texture of those beautiful red locks.

"So, Anya thinks that Kelly and Buffy are orgasm buddies, huh?" Willow smirks, knowing how Anya's mind works.

Laughing out loud Tara grins. "Yeah, especially since Kelly showed up at the Magic Box with a glaring love bite on her neck, according to Anya."

Willow's eyes opening wide she jumps up quickly. "You're kidding me! Ooooh! Buffy is going to be in for some serious razzing." Willow crows as she dances around the living room.

Laughing at her lovers antics Tara goes, "Sweetie? If you pick on her too much, you know she'll get you back, don't you?"

Willow stops for a second tilting her head looking at Tara. "Yep. But you know what? It will so be worth it!!"

As Kelly is pulling the bread out of the oven and setting it on the cooling rack, she feels two strong arms wrap around her waist and a body press against her back. Taking off the oven mitts she places her hands over the slayers arms and gently leans back against her body.

"Mmmm. Smells good. Homemade bread?" Buffy questions, lightly rubbing her face on Kelly's back.

"Yes. Bread, chicken casserole with a lot of fresh vegetables for you, a veggie bake for me, a salad and some cream cheese brownies for dessert." Kelly smiles, lightly running her fingers back and forth across the slayer's forearms.

"You know you don't have to go to all that trouble, don't you?" Buffy questions. "I mean, you aren't here to take care of me."

Turning in the Slayer's arms, Kelly wraps her up, pulling her tight into her body. "But I want to take care of you. And honestly, it isn't any trouble. Whenever we got back home I was always cooking at someone's house, since I didn't bother buying a house for myself. Being gone so much, I usually just bunked down in whatever Officers' Quarters that were open."

"Ooh. Talk about the Marines. So you're an Officer, huh? Did you get to order people around?" Buffy grins, snuggling in tight against Kelly, rubbing her face lightly against the brunette's chest.

"You could say that." Kelly laughs.

Buffy pulls away to look up into Kelly's eyes. "Exactly how far up the chain of command are you?"

"Pretty far." Kelly states leaning down, kissing Buffy lightly on the lips.

Buffy groans as Kelly starts running her hands lightly up and down her back. Shaking her head and pulling back out of the embrace she shakes a finger at Kelly "Nope. Conversation time, no distracting me. How far up?"

Kelly rolls her eyes at Buffy. "What does it matter? It's not like you have to salute me or anything. Unless…?" Kelly wiggles her eyebrows and leers at the blonde. "You wanna play the Marines are invading?"

Pouting Buffy stamps her foot lightly on the floor. "Kelly!"

"Okay. Jeez. I still don't know what it matters. I'm a Brigadier General. I'm basically on leave until my twenty years are up. I have roughly 2 ½ more years to go before I am officially retired. But since I have enough leave built up, I'm using it till I can retire. So right now, I'm on call in case of emergency. They didn't like me being out in the field anyway. But I bitched and threatened that I would do more good there than sitting behind some desk. There does that answer most of your questions?" Kelly states with a small frown.

Buffy stares open mouthed at Kelly. She knows from Riley that a Brigadier General was about as high as you could go. "Why didn't you want to tell me?"

"Because I never wanted to be a damn General! As far as I'm concerned, I'm not one. I just wanted to fight and save people. When they literally forced the commission on me, they tried to make me stay behind the scenes and work behind a desk. I had to go clear to the President to get them to let me continue going out into the field. It still pisses me off." Kelly grumbles looking at the floor. "Plus the fact I was the only damn woman to make it that far. And, God forbid I wanted to have a relationship with anyone. I got enough shit when Sam and I were together before I even made it close to being a General. I only had one other relationship after that, and it was with someone that wasn't in the Forces. Hell, that only lasted six months." Shaking her head Kelly frowns, then smiles. "That pissed them off too!"

"Why would you having a relationship with someone outside the forces piss them off?" Buffy asks questioningly.

"Because, I was supposed to be guarding her from some Demons that wanted to take her to another hell dimension, not getting all hot and bothered with her. Even though, in my defense, I did try to keep it to a strictly business relationship. But damn, she was hard to turn down. Then of course, the fact that she was a high-profile actress, didn't help matters any." Shaking her head Kelly smiles. "That's why I ended up guarding her to begin with. Seems the President has a thing for her and wanted the best, so me and my platoon were ordered to guard her."

"Who is she?" Buffy asks. "Would I know her."

Laughing loudly Kelly goes, "Oh, yeah. You would know her. But I honestly can't tell you who it is. Specific information is classified. They would probably bury me under the stockade if I let that information out."

"So, why aren't you still with her?" Buffy questions.

"It was a physical attraction more than anything, plus she got back together with her ex-husband." Smiling softly Kelly shakes her head. "They fight like cats and dogs, but they do love each other. I think I was just rebound woman for her while she decided to go back to him." Shrugging her shoulders Kelly grins. "But, I'm not complaining. It made me really realize that I was attractive, at least to some people. She was definitely an ego booster. Helped me be more confident about myself."

"I can't imagine you not being confident." Buffy says with a shake of her head. "You seem so together, confident, knowing what you want."

"I have moments Buffy. I have always been confident about my abilities as a person and a witch. I just was less confident about body, my scars. Sam helped out a lot, then Jolly cemented it." Shrugging Kelly turns to pull the food out of the oven.

"Jolly?" Buffy questions.

"My nickname for her." Kelly turns her head and grins. Before turning back and pulling the salad and salad dressings out of the refrigerator. Setting the island with plates and silverware, Kelly turns back to the loaf of bread, slicing it and spreading it out in a basket, covering it with a towel to help keep it warmth. Grabbing a couple of sodas out of the refrigerator, Setting them down beside the glasses she had gotten out previously.

Setting the food on the island, Kelly sits down across from Buffy smiling. "Did I forget anything?" Kelly questions.

Buffy frowns, looking at all the food and then grins, going to the refrigerator and pulling out the butter.

"Ooops. Looks like I did forget something." Kelly states smiling at Buffy.

"Damn, and here I was thinking you were perfect." Buffy smirks at Kelly.

Shaking her head Kelly smirks back. "Not even close. I can be a total bitch. Trust me."

Buffy tilts her head considering the brunette. 'She always seems so easy going. She's always flirting and joking.' Here Buffy stops and thinks about the night they were attacked by all the vampires. How serious she got and quickly. Then last night at Willie's. Definitely someone to be reckoned with. Nodding her head Buffy states "I can actually see it, now. Not you being a bitch per se. But that you are someone to take seriously when evil is afoot. And now, knowing your position in the Marines, you're used to being the boss, too, huh?" Buffy grins at that. 'Maybe we will have the chance to butt heads in the future. Could make for some interesting times.'

"What are you thinking about Buffy?" Kelly asks, watching the emotions crossing Buffy's face, as she starts digging into her dinner.

Buffy gets this big grin on her face "I was thinking about us butting heads in the future. Maybe getting into arguments and fights. Not literal fights, but arguments. Could make things interesting." Buffy smiles, grabbing a piece of bread and slathering butter across it before taking a bite.

"So you look forward to getting into arguments with me?" Kelly laughs watching the slayer demolish the piece of bread before grabbing another piece.

Swallowing the mouth full of bread. Buffy nods her head. "Oh, yeah. Heated arguments leading to heated sex? What's not to look forward too?" Buffy states while attacking her dinner.

Kelly shakes her head, smiling. Resting her chin on her hand she just watches the slayer eat.

After finishing her first plate full of food, and reaching for seconds, Buffy realizes that Kelly's not eating and just watching her. "What?"

"You do everything like that, don't you?" Kelly asks with a hint of laughter in her voice.

"Like what?" Buffy questions, refilling her plate. "By the way, this is absolutely terrific. What kind of bread is this? It tastes wonderful."

Kelly laughs shaking her head. "It's a honey wheat recipe I came up with a couple years ago when I was experimenting."

Buffy stops eating and points her fork at Kelly's plate. "Aren't you going to eat?" She questions. "Plus, you didn't answer my other question."

"Other question?" Kelly frowns, going back over their conversation, before it hits her. Grinning she looks at the slayer. "The way you're eating. Total focus on what you're doing. You do everything like that, don't you?" Kelly smiles then starts eating her dinner. Grabbing a piece of bread before the slayer decides to eat it all.

Frowning at Kelly grabbing a piece of bread, Buffy reaches over to the basket and pulls it close to her and growls lightly. "Mine."

Kelly raises an eyebrow and smirks. "Fine. That's yours. But that means that you don't get any of the cream cheese brownies I made earlier. And if you're gonna be selfish, you might not get any Parcheesi tonight!" Kelly threatens.

Buffy's eyes get big at the threat of no brownies. But when Kelly threatened the sex, she literally shoves the basket towards Kelly and even grabs the rest of the slice of bread on her plate and hands it to Kelly. Vehemently stating "You can even have the brownies too!" making Kelly laugh loudly.

"Sucker!" Kelly smirks, handing the slice of bread back to Buffy, and pushing the basket back towards her.

Grinning from ear to ear, Buffy finishes the slice of bread while scooping up more of her casserole.

Kelly finishes her dinner and takes her plate to the sink to rinse it off before placing it in the dishwasher.

As she's getting ready to sit back down and watch the slayer finish off her dinner, the phone rings. Shaking her head for Buffy to stay seated she grabs the phone "Summers residence…yes she is….May I ask who's calling?"

"Buffy, a Rupert Giles is on the phone for you." Kelly laughs as Buffy finishes the mouth full of food, grabbing the phone out of Kelly's hand.

"Giles! About time you called me….You can't…But can't you get an earlier flight?…Damn….Oh, that was Kelly…Yeah, she's staying here with me…Long story….Okay short version, she's Tara's half sister….Yeah, yeah. It came as a surprise to us all…Well they don't have the room set up yet….No. She'll be staying here even after they get the room set up….Why?…" Buffy stops and grins mischievously at the brunette before answering Giles. "Because she's great at Parcheesi."

Laughing at the Slayer, Kelly shakes her head.

"No, I'm serious Giles…Are you sure you can't get here for Christmas?….That sucks. I was looking forward to seeing you…Yeah, it's been a couple years since we've all been together…Plus I kind of wanted you to meet Kelly…" Buffy looks at Kelly with a sad look in her eyes. "Well maybe after the New Year, Giles….I love you too….Yes, I'll give everyone a hug…Bye, Giles." Hanging the phone up with a sad look on her face, she turns and walks around the island to hug Kelly.

"So, I'm assuming that Giles, is a friend and can't make it for Christmas?" Kelly states, rubbing Buffy's back.

"He's like a father to me. He was my watcher growing up, he trained me and helped keep me alive all these years. After the thing with the First, he had to go back to England to re-build the Watcher's Council. This was going to be the first time he was going to get to come home after he went back to England. Damn airlines. They are completely booked for the week, he can't get a flight to the States." Buffy frowns, upset.

"Buffy, I'm sorry. Where in England is he?" Kelly asks, getting an idea.

"Just outside London." Buffy mumbles against Kelly chest, tightening her grip around her.

"I'm sorry, babe." Kelly states quietly, kissing the top of Buffy's head before hugging her hard. "How about some brownies? Chocolate is always a good way to take away the grumpies."

Nodding her head, Buffy pulls away and sits back down.

Grabbing the leftovers, and putting them on the counter. Kelly grabs two fresh plates down and cuts Buffy a huge piece of the brownie and a small piece for herself. Grabbing a couple glasses she turns and looks at Buffy who is watching her. "Do you want milk?"

Buffy nods her head with a slight grin on her face.

Placing the milk down on the island, Kelly turns back around, grabbing the plates and grins evilly. Placing the small brownie in front of Buffy, she places the huge piece in front of herself before sitting down.

Buffy frowns looking from her plate to Kelly's plate and back. Then looks up into Kelly's grinning face, "Are you picking on me?"

"Well. Can you think of anything to convince me to let you have this brownie instead?" Kelly asks quirking her eyebrow slightly, with a half grin.

Buffy's eyes lighten and she grins as she runs around the island, pulling Kelly around to where she's facing her, and wedging herself between Kelly's legs, she wraps her arms around her neck and starts leaving wet little kisses all around Kelly's face, making her laugh. As Kelly's laughing, Buffy swoops in quickly flicking her tongue out to explore the recesses of Kelly's mouth.

Groaning at the sensation Kelly quickly closes her lips over the slayer's tongue, to suck lightly before releasing and stroking Buffy's tongue with hers.

Pulling back to look at the slayer with hazy eyes, Kelly smiles lovingly. "You can have both pieces, if you want!"

Buffy laughs shaking her head. "Nope. Not going to be completely stingy. I'll let you have some, even though that is a hell of a slice of brownie." Buffy states looking at the brownie that took up a good portion of the plate.

Kelly smiles knowingly at the slayer. Switching the two plates watching Buffy go back and sit down "Like you won't eat it?"

With the brownie halfway to her mouth Buffy raises an eyebrow. "I didn't say that, now did I?" Before taking a bite and closing her eyes in ecstasy. Chewing slowly and swallowing the bite, her eyes pop open looking at Kelly. "Will you marry me?"

Kelly laughs at the slayer. "Oh. So all I am is a meal to you, huh?" Shaking her head, she starts to eat her brownie, watching the slayer demolish her piece and the milk with it.

"Well, what if I said I was serious?" Buffy states quietly. "I mean, after more time of getting to know each other, seeing if we can live together without driving each other crazy, of course. I mean, I don't want to jump into something like that."

Smiling Kelly looks up, thinking Buffy is joking. Losing the smile, she realizes Buffy's serious. "Buffy?"

Looking up into Kelly's eyes. Buffy looks back down, grabbing her plate and glass to take to the sink.

Following Buffy with her eyes, Kelly shifts in the chair, lightly taking Buffy by the shoulders after she sets her dishes down. Turning Buffy around to look in her eyes, Kelly smiles. "I'd love to marry you."

Buffy searches Kelly's eyes, seeing that she was serious, the most beautiful smile crosses the slayer's face before she leans in and gently brushes her lips across Kelly's. "I love you."

"I love you, too, Buffy." Cupping the slayer's check in her hand Kelly lightly kisses Buffy before pulling gently away. "Of course, gay marriages aren't legal in California yet. But maybe in the near future they will be."

"Yeah. I know Willow and Tara wishes they would legalize it. I think they're going to have a hand fasting ceremony sometime. I've overheard them talking about it occasionally. I know it's only a matter of time." Buffy smiles softly at the idea of her two best friends getting married.

"Yep. And you know, we'll have to let them get married first. They would be all kinds of pissed at us if we got hooked up before them." Kelly grins at the thought.

Buffy groans. "You're telling me. I'm still waiting to hear from Willow. I know I'm gonna get an earful about us the next time we talk."

Kelly gives Buffy a questioning look.

"I never, ummm… how should I phrase this?" Buffy looks up trying to think of a polite way to phrase her statement.

"Jumped somebody's bones quite this quickly before?" Kelly states with a smile.

"Well, yeah. But I was trying to think of a nicer way to say it!" Buffy states huffily. "Besides, it's not just the bone jumping. I've never gotten involved with anyone this quickly before. You just flew in under my radar and straight into my heart."

Gently pulling the slayer in for a sweet, gentle kiss, Kelly hugs her tightly. "Well, that makes two of us."

"Time to go patrolling." Buffy grumbles looking out the kitchen window. "This is seriously cutting into my snuggling time."

Laughing at Buffy, Kelly gives her a quick smack on the ass stating "You can have all the snuggles you want when we get back from patrol."

"Hey!" Buffy yells at the smack on her butt. "Be careful! Turnabout is fair play."

Raising her eyebrows Kelly grins.

Shaking her head Buffy heads out of the kitchen to get ready. Hearing Kelly laughing behind her making her swear she's going to do something to get back at the brunette.

"Damn it, Kelly you could have warned me about that demon." Buffy states heatedly.

Laughing Kelly looks at the Slayer, as they walk into the house a couple hours later from patrolling. "I couldn't remember why it seemed familiar to begin with Buffy! It wasn't until you were going in for the kill shot that it came to me what would happen!"

Buffy growls under her breathe "Yeah, I bet it took you that long." Making Kelly laugh even harder.

Looking at the slayer, covered in blue demon goo, Kelly couldn't help laughing. "Honestly, Buffy. It wasn't until you were getting ready to take its head off, that I remembered that when it was killed it exploded and everything with ten feet would get covered in it's body parts!"

With her fists on her hips and another hunk of demon guts dropped from her jacket onto the floor in the kitchen Buffy grumbles "Oh, yeah. And that's why you just happened to be out of striking distance, huh?"

Taking her jacket off, Kelly turns away with a smirk on her face. "It was just pure luck, Buffy. Here, let me help you out." Kelly states smiling, while taking Buffy's coat off and bending down on one knee to untie the slayer's boots and take them off, before getting back up. Slowly unbuttoning the slayer's shirt, and pushing it down off her shoulders before dropping it on top of the jacket, Kelly quickly unhooks Buffy's bra, adding it to the growing pile. She looks in Buffy's eyes and waggles her eyebrows. "You're gorgeous when you're mad." Before kneeling back in front of Buffy and unbuttoning and unzipping the slayer's jeans before gently pulling them down and off. Pulling the slayer's socks off, Buffy is left standing in front of her in nothing but her panties. Putting her hands on the outside of Buffy's calves Kelly slowly stands up, running her hands up the Slayer's legs as she goes. Stopping with them resting on the slayer's waist Kelly leans in and gives her a quick kiss on a shoulder blade, that's actually still clean before stepping back. "Why don't I get your weapons and clothes taken care of while you go and shower?"

Buffy shudders from the heat building inside her from Kelly's touch. "Shower, yeah that would be of the good." She states trying to get her head around the fact that she's supposed to be mad at Kelly. "And don't think I don't realize you're trying to sidetrack me, woman!" Buffy yells at Kelly as she's taking the slayer's clothes down to the basement to be washed. Shaking her head hearing the muffled laugh from Kelly, Buffy heads upstairs to take a shower.

After getting the clothes in the washer, Kelly gathers up the weapons, cleaning and putting them away, shaking her head laughing the entire time. 'I am so gonna get it.' She thinks to herself, knowing Buffy didn't believe her. 'It's not like I remembered to begin with, but I could have let her know sooner than I did.' Kelly thinks chuckling.

Checking the doors and making sure everything was put away. Kelly heads upstairs, hearing Buffy moving around in her room, she decides to go get her sleeping shorts and tank top and take a quick shower.

Coming out of the bathroom towel drying her hair Kelly glances in Buffy's room and sees that the door is shut and no light coming from under the door. 'I guess she was tired. Or really was pissed at me.' Head down, Kelly turns and walks into her bedroom, turning to gently close the door behind her.

Turning to throw her clothes in the hamper, Kelly jumps slightly, seeing Buffy laying on her bed watching her every move. "So, you still mad at me?" Kelly asks with a raised eyebrow before throwing her dirty clothes and towel in the hamper.

"Yes I am." Buffy growls. "You remembered, admit it. You just wanted to see me covered in blue goo!"

Trying to keep from laughing, Kelly kneels down beside the bed, laying her arms under her chin, looking at Buffy. "You look absolutely beautiful in blue goo, Buffy. And maybe, just maybe I remembered a few seconds earlier, but I don't think I would have been able to warn you in time in any case" Kelly states watching the slayer. Reaching out with one hand, Kelly gently brushes the hair away from the slayer's face and tucks it behind her ear. "God woman. You are gorgeous." Kelly states in a husky voice, her eyes darkening.

Scooting to the side of the bed, beside Kelly. Buffy stands up and reaches down for Kelly's hand, helping her stand up. Slowly lifting the tank top from Kelly's body Buffy inhales, that damn nipple ring! "God that thing is so sexy." Buffy growls low in her throat before slowly licking Kelly's breast before tonguing the nipple and nipple ring.

Groaning in pleasure, Kelly reaches down grabbing Buffy's robe, slowly untying and easing it from the slayer's body.

After pulling away to let the robe slip past her arms and onto the floor, Buffy reaches for Kelly's shorts, running her fingers just under the waist band. Gently grasping Kelly's ass under the shorts, pulling her into the slayer's body and kissing Kelly between her breasts, lightly licking the skin that is heating up so nicely. Pulling back and looking up to see Kelly's eyes are closed and that she is breathing heavy, Buffy smiles softly. Oh, so slowly, Buffy lowers Kelly's shorts, following them down, placing light kisses across Kelly's abdomen, and down one hip to her knee, before gently raising one leg out of the shorts before switching to the other knee, lifting that leg to pull the shorts out of the way and throwing it in the corner. Slowly kissing her way back up the other thigh, smiling at Kelly's thighs, seeing the juices flowing from her before kissing further and seeing the Kelly's swollen glistening sex. Inhaling deeply Buffy moans loudly.

Wanting to just bury her face in Kelly's sex, she has to move quickly past that area, if she's going to do what she planned while taking a shower. Stopping to place a kiss on her favorite breast Buffy looks at Kelly.

Finally opening her eyes to look at the Slayer Kelly groans at the desire filling the Slayer's hazel eyes. Leaning down, easing her lips over the slayers, gently prodding Buffy to open her mouth, Kelly lazily strokes her tongue over the slayers gently loving her mouth, slowly retracting her tongue, Buffy's follows to continue the slow, expressive kiss to have her tongue lightly sucked.

Buffy moans, feeling the juices slide down the inside of her thigh. She can never remember feeling this turned on, this wet for anyone. Gently pulling away from the kiss, she leans her head against Kelly's chest, breathing deeply. Smiling to herself at the brunette's thudding heartbeat under her cheek and quick panting breaths coming from Kelly.

Gently pushing Kelly onto the bed, Buffy looks her in the eye "Do you trust me?"

Kelly answers simply "Yes."

"Turn over onto your stomach." Buffy huskily states the order.

Rolling over onto her stomach, to where she's lying in the middle of the bed, Kelly crosses her arms across a pillow and lays her head down sideways so she can watch Buffy who's still standing beside the bed.

Slowly climbing onto the bed, and crawling over to Kelly, Buffy leans down and gently kisses her mouth. "I love you."

Moving to straddle Kelly's hips, Buffy leans down to run her breasts over Kelly's back, while following with her fingers, lightly scraping her nails down her back, watching Kelly arch into the touch and moaning lightly. Slowly and gently but firmly Buffy kisses and touches Kelly's back. Making love to every scar.

Groaning at the sensation Kelly buries her head into the pillow, stretching her arms out beside her, pressing her hips into the bed, trying to get some friction against her aching clit.

Buffy smiles, as she reaches the dip of Kelly's lower back, feeling Kelly grind herself into the mattress.

"Bu..Bu…Buffy" Kelly has to say it three times to get it out, her voice deep and raw.

Buffy stops kissing Kelly's lower back and climbs back up to where she lays her body on top of Kelly's groaning at the contact, making Kelly growl in frustration.

Whispering in Kelly's ear "Did you want something?" Buffy licks at that sensitive spot behind Kelly's ear before gently sucking, making Kelly buck her hips hard.

Kelly growls "You. I want you."

Buffy shakes her head "Not until I'm ready." Before easing her body down Kelly, rubbing her breasts all the way down Kelly's back, over her butt and down her thighs, until Buffy's mouth is at the top of Kelly's butt. 'My God. She has a great looking ass, too. I wonder what she would do if I continue kissing and licking my way down across here?' Buffy wonders to herself, never having done anything like that before, but finding out it was something she really wanted to do to Kelly.

Gently kissing her way across one butt check to the other, Buffy licks where the top of Kelly's thighs meet her ass cheeks, making Kelly grind herself down hard into the mattress. Smiling Buffy watches as Kelly lifts her hips up, going to slide one hand under her.

Buffy grabs the naughty hand and states "Uh, uh. Not going to happen, girlfriend. I'm in charge here." As she pulls the offending hand and lays it out beside Kelly again.

Shifting her body, until she's straddling one of Kelly's legs and her mound is pressing into Kelly's ass, Buffy reaches out to grab both Kelly's arms, pulling them in tight against Kelly's body. Grasping Kelly's hips, Buffy whispers "Get up on all fours."

"You are trying to kill me." Kelly's voice is so rough that Buffy almost didn't make out her words.

"No, not trying to kill you. Just trying something, different." Buffy whispers and groans as Kelly gets up on all fours, and she slides down Kelly's butt to the top of Kelly's thigh, her sex leaving a trail of juices. Holding Kelly's hips, Buffy rubs hers clit against Kelly's thigh groaning more as Kelly tenses her leg muscles up to give Buffy more friction. "Oh, God." Buffy hisses, pushing herself harder against Kelly. Starting to rock back and forth against the back of Kelly's thigh. Partially leaning her upper body over Kelly's back, Buffy wraps her arms around Kelly, hugging her tightly while literally humping the back of her leg.

"Buffy!!" Kelly growls out in an extremely frustrated voice, rocking hard back into the slayer.

Buffy pushes hard, once more, coming over the back of Kelly's thigh, still rocking roughly against Kelly. Partially collapsing on top of her, Buffy pants hard, shaking. Running her hands over Kelly's stomach that keeps clenching and unclenching against her hands. Slowing down her rocking motion, she realizes that Kelly is still rocking hard and growling, not even saying anything anymore. She's just making one continuous low, angry, growl deep in her throat.

Buffy eases one hand back around behind Kelly, running it down her ass, lightly running a finger between her butt cheeks, smiling as Kelly spreads her legs wider, still growling. With the other hand that's on Kelly's stomach, she runs the hand down, pushing the heel of her hand into Kelly's mound. Sliding the heel of that hand down slightly further until it is grinding against Kelly's clit, making Kelly shove hard against it. The other hand, slowly works it's way to Kelly's vagina, easing two fingers inside. Buffy groans at the heat, the slickness. Realizing that the juices are literally flowing out of Kelly, Buffy pulls her body back a little, she sees the juices running down Kelly's thighs, being soaked up by the comforter. 'Lucky comforter.' Buffy thinks irrationally.

Kelly is bucking against Buffy's hands, "Give me more" she yells, "Give me everything." She groans, shoving back hard against Buffy's fingers while trying to press against the heel of Buffy's palm at the same time.

Confused Buffy asks "What?" She asks. "What do you mean?" As she continues pumping in Kelly with two fingers, 'God so wet, so easily sliding in and out. Oh, she wants more fingers.' Buffy realizes and quickly adds a third finger, realizing that still isn't enough Buffy adds a fourth finger, pushing slightly harder into Kelly.

Kelly grunts quietly, pushing herself back hard onto Buffy's fingers. 'God such strong hands and fingers for such a tiny person.' The pressure is building up inside Kelly. Wanting more, wanting… "Buffy…trust…me?" Kelly pants out the three words, pressing down and grinding her clit hard into Buffy.

"Always." Buffy pants still pumping fast into Kelly, unbelieving of the brunettes response.

"Fist…in…" Kelly trails off grunting, pushing back harder against Buffy's fingers.

Buffy's eyes widen, she doesn't…looking down at her hand, four fingers already pumping in and out of Kelly, Buffy realizes it wouldn't take much. Slowing down her fast pace to a slower pace she almost smiles at Kelly's grunt of disapproval before tucking her thumb in and slowly easing her fist inside Kelly. Pumping slowly a few times, feeling Kelly's muscles tightening…Oh God, so tight…around her hand and arm.

Rocking hard against the fist in her Kelly clenches down tightly on Buffy's arm, screaming out her release before collapsing on the bed.

Buffy follows Kelly down on the bed, feeling Kelly's insides clenching her arm, 'My God! That feels…un-fucking-believable.' Buffy thinks as Kelly keeps clenching and unclenching for minutes, with her whole body rocking slightly against the slayer. Feeling that strange feeling ricocheting into her own body, having a small climax in response. Finally feeling Kelly's muscles relax, Buffy eases her hand out of Kelly, making Kelly moan quietly in disagreement when it finally slides out completely.

Snorting out a half laugh Buffy lays her exhausted body on top of Kelly's, kissing her shoulder. Figuring the strange sensation was just her body's reaction to Kelly.

Tangling their legs together slowly, Kelly reaches around to run her fingers over Buffy's hip, about the only part she can touch without too much expenditure of energy. "I…love…you…" Kelly pants out finally.

Buffy giggles, listening to Kelly's heartbeat that hasn't calmed down yet. It sounds like a herd of horses galloping through. "I love you, too." Buffy reaches up and turns off the bedside lamp, sliding off Kelly's back. "Can you shift so I can get the covers to go over us, instead of under us?" Buffy quietly asks.

Kelly groans shaking her head. "I'm done for. Bury me out back in the morning." She pants before burying her face in the pillow, not moving.

Laughing at the uncharacteristic display, Buffy gently rolls Kelly over onto her back and looks down at her. "Kelly…are you wimping out on me?"

Slowly opening one eyeball that has a seriously dazed look Kelly closes it back up and simply nods.

Shaking her head, Buffy makes a mental note that from now on, to be on the safe side, someone needs to pull the covers down to the end of the bed before anymore activities. Sliding Kelly's body to the edge of the bed, Buffy flips the covers over the other end of the bed and rolls Kelly over onto the sheet and pulls the covers to lay over top of her, before climbing in beside the brunette. Buffy glances at the clock and groans. "Where the hell does the time go?" When she realizes it's 3 in the morning. Thumping Kelly lightly in the stomach in response to the snort of laughter coming from her. Reaching over she sets the alarm for 8:30 a.m.

"Wasn't my fault this time." Kelly mumbles, reaching for the slayer. Pulling Buffy up tight against her, gently urging the slayer to climb on top of her. "Like sleeping like this." She says quietly as she falls asleep.

Shaking her head in amusement, Buffy shifts her body down, tangling their legs together and laying her head on Kelly's breast, gently cupping the other breast before leaning up to give it a kiss and a light tug on the nipple ring, laughing quietly to herself as Kelly, even asleep, moans and rocks her hips slightly at the pressure.

"God, I love you." Buffy states quietly, kissing the skin in front of her before slowly falling asleep.

"Fuckin' annoying piece of shit…" Kelly grumbles, reaching out, hand searching, finding the alarm clock and throwing it against the wall, before wrapping her arms around Buffy to go back to sleep. "Whoa, earthquake. Fucking California" she says snarkily, falling back asleep.

Buffy's laughs even harder at the brunette's antics. Even though she doesn't much blame her. God knows she would love to stay in bed.

"Kelly." Buffy whispers in her ear and only gets a sigh in return. "Kelly." A little louder. No response. "KELLY." Buffy almost yells in her ear. 'Whoa, wrong thing to do.' Buffy yelps as she's plopped unceremoniously off the bed.

"What the hell?" Kelly states blinking her eyes, then rubbing them with one hand looking to where the alarm clock should be. "Where's the fucking alarm clock? The hell with the alarm clock. BUFFY! Where the fuck are you at girl?" Kelly yells as she swings her legs over the edge of the bed and looks down seeing Buffy laying on the floor, looking up at her trying not to laugh.

"Why are you on the floor?" Kelly asks in a sleep roughened voice and a scowl on her face.

"That's where I just got dumped. Thanks girlfriend." Buffy giggles at the look of horror that comes over Kelly's face at that statement.

Dropping down beside the slayer, Kelly starts running her hands over Buffy's body. "Are you okay? Are you hurt? God I'm so sorry." Not finding anything broken, Kelly gently lifts Buffy up and lays her in the bed. Then frowns as Buffy laughs heartily at her. "Glad to be your entertainment for the morning."

Buffy laughs even more. "Actually you have been. Are you always so pleasant when you first wake up in the morning? I mean you've always awakened before me, other than that little cat nap we had the other day."

Growling down at the slayer, Buffy inhales quickly seeing the look in Kelly's eyes. "Kelly, we don't have… Oh, GOD!!"

Kelly pounces, burying her face in Buffy's crotch and starts licking. Sucking the Slayer's clit in hard, keeping up a steady sucking before slowly easing one finger into the Slayer's already soaking center. Smiling to herself at Buffy's readiness, she quickly adds a second finger and starts pumping in and out of the slayer, curling her fingers to hit the g-spot over and over again. Continuously sucking the slayer's clit, it only takes a few minutes before Buffy screams out Kelly's name in pleasure.

Pulling away slowly and gently licking up the escaped juices Kelly gives Buffy a self-satisfied smirk. "What were you saying?"

Shaking and dazed from the ferocity of the attack, Buffy slowly comes back to herself seeing Kelly smirking at her. "My God! I have NEVER come that quickly before." Buffy pants out. Looking amazed into Kelly's dark brown eyes.

"New speed record, huh?" Kelly states before looking around trying to find the alarm clock then frowning when she sees it in pieces on the floor by the wall. "Don't tell me I threw the alarm clock?" She asks groaning.

Buffy starts laughing again "Yep. Threw the alarm clock, thought there was an earthquake, dumped me off your body onto the floor and made me come. All pretty much within ten minutes." Buffy starts laughing hysterically at the brunette who is hanging her head in embarrassment.

Mumbling to herself Kelly states "Somebody please shoot me now."

Buffy shakes her head, leaning up to kiss Kelly quickly. "Oh, no. We can't have that. This is priceless. I have a feeling things like this probably don't happen too terribly often and I'm gonna milk this for all it's worth." Buffy states smiling as she gets out of the bed, quickly pinching Kelly's nipple before heading to the bathroom for a quick shower before work.

Kelly's shoulders start shaking and then she just lays back on the bed laughing. Shaking her head she gets up and looks for her tank top and shorts to throw on quickly before running downstairs to figure out something quick to fix Buffy for breakfast.

"You didn't have to fix me breakfast." Buffy states around a mouthful of pancakes. "I could have waited to get something to eat when I got home."

"Nope." Kelly states shaking her head at Buffy while sucking down her third cup of coffee and looks at the clock. 9:30 enough time to hop in the shower while Buffy finishes eating. "I'm gonna run upstairs to take a quick shower and then I'll drive you to school."

Buffy smiles up at Kelly, taking a sip of her coffee. "Okay." And then giggles watching Kelly's ass as she runs out of the kitchen.

'If I had time before work, I'd follow that ass right up into the shower.' Buffy thinks to herself as she finishes her breakfast. Pouring herself some more coffee she smiles. 'I'm sounding like a horny teenager. What that woman does to me.' Buffy laughs out loud at the thought.

"How come I got this feeling you're laughing at me." Kelly grumbles as she comes back into the kitchen, dressed in tight blue jeans, top two buttons undone, a dark red bra and a navy blue silk button up shirt over it that is being buttoned by one hand, while Kelly grabs the last of the coffee pouring it into her mug and sipping on it.

Buffy grins and sets her coffee mug down, reaching for the buttons on Kelly's shirt, smacking Kelly's hand out of the way.

"Hey!" Kelly yelps at the smack frowning, drinking her coffee and letting Buffy button up her shirt. "I wasn't planning on buttoning it that far up." Kelly grumbles, seeing that Buffy has left only the top two buttons undone as her hands start tucking the shirt into Kelly's jeans.

"I figured as much." Buffy states with a knowing grin. "But those are mine now, and I'm gonna be real particular about who gets to ogle them!" Buffy laughs before buttoning the last two buttons on Kelly's jeans, before quickly cupping Kelly's sex and grinning at the groan she elicits.

"No teasing the tall, horny brunette." Kelly growls. "You did enough of that last night."

Buffy smiles from ear to ear. "Yes I did. But I also seem to remember making you come screaming! And then you weren't good for anything else after that!" Buffy states with a grin at her accomplishment.

"Yeah, and after a couple days for me to recover…" Kelly leans down growling in Buffy's ear.

"What?" Buffy asks groaning lightly at the feel of Kelly's hot breathe over her ear and the growl that just sends shivers down to her sex.

"I'll let you do it again!" Kelly laughs pulling away before getting smacked.

"Come on, I need to get you to work before Principal Wood gets mad at you. After all you took away his fun yesterday!" Kelly smirks as they leave the house

Getting in the Hummer, Buffy laughs, remembering the look on his face. "No poaching allowed!"

"And you definitely staked your claim! If there was any question of that before, it's completely gone after last night!" Kelly grins widely, still enjoying the twinges going through her body.

Buffy blushes slightly, looking at Kelly's grin. "Are you okay?" She asks more double-checking with the brunette than actually worried about what happened.

"Oh, God, yes, I'm okay." Kelly states with a groan and hum. "You can scratch my itch that particular way anytime you want." Looking quickly at Buffy with a quick grin.

Buffy's blush deepens even more and then she smacks Kelly on the shoulder and shakes her head. "And here I was worried that I actually might have hurt you! Your horny toad!"

"Hurt me? Nah. Make me ache in all the right ways, most definitely." Kelly smiles softly with a quick wink at the slayer.

Pulling up to the school parking lot, Buffy leans in and gives Kelly a long, loving kiss. "I love you."

"I love you too, babe. Two o'clock again today?" Kelly asks questioning.

Buffy nods "I'll try to actually be out here at two today!"

Smiling and watching the slayer go into the building, Kelly hurries up to get back to the house. 'A lot to do today. And so little time to do it in.' She thinks to herself.

Tara grins to herself watching Buffy actually working today, instead of staring off into outer space.

Walking in and sitting down she smiles at Buffy.

Buffy looks at her with a grin. "What?"

"Glad to see that you're actually with us today." Tara smirks slightly.

Blushing lightly Buffy looks down shaking her head. "Are you trying to say I wasn't altogether here yesterday?"

With a little snort of laughter Tara leans towards Buffy whispering "You were so busted yesterday. I know you were thinking about the hot monkey loving!"

Buffy's eyes open wide and she starts shaking her head back and forth. "Nope. No. It was Parcheesi, I swear!" She starts giggling and looking down at her fingers before getting a huge grin on her face and looking up at Tara. "And, my God! Is she great at Parcheesi!!"

Frowning at first Tara finally realizes what Buffy's saying and blushes herself before laughing quietly. "Parcheesi?"

Buffy gets this faraway look on her face and states, without realizing what she's saying "Oh, yeah. The other night after hours of…" Buffy's eyes get real big as she cuts herself off, looking at Tara.

Tara starts laughing, covering her mouth before getting control. Smirking at Buffy "Hours, huh? I would assume…hmmm… that you have been enjoying yourself immensely?" Tara giggles.

"God!! Why didn't anyone ever tell me what it would be like? Let Willow know that I am so pissed at her" Buffy grins slightly.

"Umm. Buffy" Tara hesitates, blushing lightly. "And what exactly…" snickering lightly "Would you have done if Willow had explained things in a little detail to you?"

Buffy's eyes get real big and as she blushes a deep red she looks at Tara, shaking her head "I would have probably ran the other way. And if I hadn't run I would have never believed it. Umm. Not asking for details or anything, but are things always so…" Buffy's eyes dilate and she takes a deep breath, shaking her head slightly.

Tara grins "So…hot?…intense?…satisfying?…loving?….gentle?… What are you asking Buffy?"

Buffy looks at Tara and nods her head "All of the above."

Tara laughs heartily at the slayer. "So a wide spectrum of choices here, huh? I would assume it's like being with anyone. A lot depends on the person, their personality, their openness to trying new things." Tara shrugs. "Love. I honestly believe it depends on how much you love the other person. Everything else should fall into place if you have that."

Placing her chin in her cupped hand Buffy nods her head. "Oh, yeah. I realize that now. Love definitely seems to make a huge difference. I just enjoy being around Kelly. I mean, I usually don't like someone hanging off me, or anything. But I've found out I like being in constant contact with her." Hesitating slightly Buffy smiles softly at Tara. "I don't think I really knew what love was before, wanting what I couldn't have, sex and not even good sex at that, I've come to realize!" Buffy shakes her head getting an absolutely lascivious smile on her face. "I am definitely learning what good, no great…. no spectacular…yeah spectacular sex is." Buffy nods her agreement to herself.

Tara's eyes widen and she kind of coughs before stating quietly "Uh, before you go any further and this gets to be too much information for my piece of mind, Buffy. I will assume that you two are…sexually compatible. And let's leave it at that!" Tara snorts quietly, holding the laughter in.

"What?" Buffy asks then blushes again. "I said that out loud? Oh, God. I am so sorry Tara! Open mouth insert foot much Buffy?"

Tara reaches over, gently patting Buffy's arm. "It's okay, Buffy. Honestly. I'm glad you found someone that makes you happy." Grinning mischievously before stating "In all manners of ways."

"Oh, yeah…" Buffy trails off, thinking about this mornings quickie and shaking her head. "Hey, Kelly mentioned we were going out for dinner tonight, but she didn't tell me where. Did she tell you guys?"

Tara shakes her head. "If she mentioned to Willow, Willow didn't tell me. She just said that you guys were going to pick us up before picking up Xander and Anya." Shrugging her shoulders at Buffy. "We'll find out soon enough." Tara states heading back to her class room.

Smiling as Buffy climbs into the Hummer Kelly turns the radio off, leaning in for a quick kiss. "Have a good day, babe?"

Buffy smiles "You didn't have to turn the radio off." Leaning in closer for a longer kiss.

"Hmmm… But I like being able to talk to you. Kind of hard to do with the radio blasting." Kelly states before nibbling on the slayers neck. "God, this spot right here, I could spend hours licking and sucking here." Before lightly sucking on the slayer's pulse point.

Buffy groans quietly. "Yeah…but we might want to do it somewhere besides the school parking lot."

Pulling away with a slightly glazed look in her eyes Kelly looks around. "Yep, might be a good idea." Leaning in for a quick peck on the slayer's cheek before putting the vehicle in gear and heading out.

"Where are we going?" Buffy asks, seeing that they're heading in the opposite direction of home.

"Need to pick up something I ordered at the Mall." Kelly grins at Buffy.

"And what did you order at the mall?" She asks with a raised eyebrow.

"Uh,uh. Not gonna tell you. You will just have to wait and see." Kelly grins evilly at the slayer before laughing lightly.

Buffy shakes her head at her lover and smiles, reaching over to lightly lay her hand on her thigh.

Glancing at Buffy Kelly smiles in appreciation of the loving touch.

"Turn the radio back on. I wouldn't mind listening to some music on our way to the mall." Buffy states leaning her head back against the seat.

"Actually it was a CD I was listening too."

"That'll work." Buffy states smiling slightly.

Turning the radio back on to pick up the song in the middle, Kelly quickly kicks it back to the beginning of the song. "This is one of my favorite songs. And I sing for crap, but I have a hard time not singing to it. So I apologize if I can't keep my mouth shut."

Buffy laughs, remembering the singing demon. "You can't be no worse than me." Hmmm. Buffy starts listening to the lyrics and laughs lightly. Figures this would be one of Kelly's favorite songs.

"Actually, I like the song. I can see why you like it!! It fits you." Buffy laughs at Kelly.

"Hey. Are you picking on me Mighty Mouse?" Kelly smiles knowingly at Buffy. There's another song on here, that I really like the beat to, but considering all I can do is dance slow dances or dirty dances…"

Buffy's eyes light up at the thought. "Want to bring this CD in to the house tonight and dance? Maybe show me some of your moves?"

Grinning wickedly at the slayer "I already showed you some of my moves. How many do you want to see?"

Shaking her head at Kelly as they pull into the parking spot at the mall, Buffy unhooks her seatbelt, climbing over onto Kelly's lap and starts licking up the side of Kelly's neck to her ear whispering "I want to see all your moves. And I want to be the only one to see those moves." She growls lightly before hungrily kissing Kelly, forcing her tongue past her lips to duel with Kelly's tongue, fighting for dominance.

Groaning into the Slayer's mouth, Kelly reaches for the slayer's breasts, lightly pinching each nipple and smiling when it makes Buffy squirm in her lap.

Breaking the kiss Kelly shakes her head. "Let's not give everybody a free show. I know the windows are tinted, but they can still see in the front window. Do you want to go in with me?"

"Of course I want to go in with you." Buffy grumbles "not as much as I would rather be going in you…" making Kelly laugh as she helps Buffy off her lap and out into the parking lot, quickly following her.

"Buffy, am I rubbing off on you, or something? Here you go years without…" Groaning Kelly grabs Buffy's ass as she finds herself pressed against the side of the Hummer with a very determined slayer pressed against her body, attacking her lips.

As quickly as the attack came, Buffy pulls away, grasping Kelly's hand, pulling her towards the mall entrance.

"Where are we going?" Buffy asks as they head into the mall, wondering which way they need to go.

Kelly's standing their with a slight dazed look in her eyes shaking her head and looking at Buffy. "What?"

Laughing at the brunette Buffy reaches up, cupping her cheeks with both hands, making sure she has Kelly's attention. "WHERE…ARE…WE…GOING?" Buffy asks slowly and distinctly.

"Oh, this way." Kelly points, grasping one of Buffy's hands and interlocking her fingers with Buffy's heading to the store to pick up some stuff she had ordered when Buffy wasn't paying attention last Friday. 'They better have everything wrapped and ready for me like I requested.' Kelly thinks as they walk into the store.

The manager walks up to them "Miss Maclay, how wonderful to see you again. We have everything ready as you requested. Here is your receipt. Would you like help carrying the packages out to your vehicle?"

"How many bags are we talking about, Mr. Constantine?" Kelly asks questioning, pocketing the receipt without even looking at it.

Motioning the women over to the back of the store he points to 8 bags against the wall with Kelly's name stapled to them. They're medium to large bags. Kelly looks at Buffy and asks "Do you think between the two of us we can get all the bags or should we have some help? They shouldn't weigh too much."

Buffy shakes her head at Kelly and looks around the store. They're in a leather store that sold everything from hand bags to leather underwear to jackets and pants. Raising an eyebrow at the brunette "We can probably get them. Is there anything else here in the mall you need to pick up?"

"Not today, no." Kelly states with a little grin.

Grumbling under her breathe about lovers that are always up to no good, Buffy reaches over and grabs two bags in each hand looking at Kelly. "Do you want me to grab more, or do you think you can get the other four bags?"

Kelly hunches her back over and says in an old voice "Well, dearie. I am getting up there in age…but I might be able to get my poor arthritic hands to grasp these bags."

Buffy snorts out a laugh and proceeds to give Kelly a swift boot to her ass. "Come on grandma, get your ass in gear. I want some snuggles before dinner tonight." She says without thinking and then blushes when she hears the manager that's still standing there cut a laugh short at her comment.

Not able to resist embarrassing the blonde further, Kelly leans conspiratorially towards the manager "She just can't seem to get enough. I mean take last night…"

Buffy grabs Kelly by the arm, blushing a deep red "KELLY! Enough! Let's get out of here!" She states grabbing the bags and dragging a laughing Kelly out of the store.

"You just love embarrassing me, don't you!" Buffy huffs heading back towards the vehicle.

Kelly smiles at Buffy and leans down "Yeah, but did you notice anything about the Manager? He was clearly enjoying our conversation. Hell, I bet he would have given us a discount for next time if you hadn't dragged me out of there!"

"Is there anything you won't discuss?" Buffy asks exasperatedly.

Stopping and thinking Kelly frowns. "In general, probably not. I mean we can't consider top military secrets or anything like that, you know I can't discuss them."

"AARRGHH" Buffy grumbles loudly, as they get to the Hummer. Putting the bags in the back she looks at one of the wrapped boxes, starting to pull it out, before Kelly stops her by putting her hand on it, gently pushing it back into the bag.

"Uh, Uh. No looking." Kelly quietly states before giving Buffy a quick kiss on the tip of her nose. "Those are for Saturday."

"You're no fun." Buffy pouts as she gets into the Hummer.

"Oh, I'm no fun, now, huh?" Kelly smirks, pulling out of the mall parking lot. "I guess that means no snuggles for you when we get home. I mean, I would consider snuggles fun, very fun and very enjoyable…" Kelly trails off as Buffy leans over to pinch her right nipple firmly.

"Oh, I meant to ask you, why don't you have that nipple pierced too? Why only your left nipple?" Buffy asks, making Kelly shake her head and laugh.

"Okay. Umm, the piercing makes that nipple more sensitive and I never pierced the other one just to know how much of a difference in feeling there is." Shrugging her shoulders Kelly glances at Buffy. "Would you like me to get the other one pierced?"

Buffy's eyes widen and she looks at Kelly "You'd get your other nipple pierced because I would want you too?"

"Sure. Why not? I've actually been thinking about getting my belly button pierced, but I know how much you enjoy the nipple piercing" Kelly leers over at Buffy briefly before continuing "I'll do that instead. The only thing is, the nipple is swollen and sore for about two weeks after the piercing."

"Huh." Buffy says looking at Kelly. "What if I wanted you to get a tattoo over your heart that says 'This belongs to Buffy'?"

"I'd ask where there's a good tattoo parlor in Sunnydale." Kelly states seriously.

"Why?"

"Why what?" Kelly asks confused.

"Why would you do that?" Buffy questions.

"I love you. If it would make you happy, I'm all for it." Kelly pulls into the driveway putting the vehicle in park and shutting it off before unhooking her seatbelt and turning to face Buffy. "Buffy, I am completely in love with you. As far as I'm concerned, you are my life. I'll do anything I can to make you happy. I've been waiting all my life for you, and if that is what makes you happy, so be it." Kelly's eyes look searchingly in Buffy's hoping that she understands what she's trying to tell her.

"How about the belly button piercing, how long would it be sore for?" Buffy asks with a grin.

Kelly laughs at Buffy. "That area isn't as sensitive, so it wouldn't be near as bad, why?"

"I don't like the idea of being without your breast for that long, plus the fact I would be tempted to grab a hold of the piercing and tug on it all the time, and that wouldn't be good while it was healing." Buffy states with a leering grin at Kelly's chest.

Laughing at Buffy, Kelly pulls her in for a quick kiss before hopping out of the vehicle to bring the bags in the house. "Come on, Mighty Mouse, if you want your snuggles before dinner." Kelly threatens Buffy and laughs loudly as Buffy comes tearing around the vehicle grabbing all the bags up in one fell swoop and running to the house.

"Come on Kelly, get up here and unlock the door, slowpoke!!" Buffy yells at Kelly.

"I'm coming, I'm coming." Kelly laughs running up to the front door. "You are so easy."

Buffy nods her head grinning "Get the door open and you'll see how easy I am!!"

"So, Buffy. Have you told Xander yet?" Willow asks Buffy, looking at Tara with a knowing grin.

"No. Oh God. I was talking to Kelly about it the other night when I mentioned how he acted around you two for so long afterwards. I swear I still see him getting a glazed look occasionally when you two kiss or hug! I can't imagine what he's going to be like with us." Buffy groans.

Kelly looks over at Buffy with a big grin. "Well, he seems to have a breast fetish, just like a certain red head that will remain nameless." Kelly grins looking up in the rearview mirror catching first Willow's then Tara's eyes. "Anya smacked him in the head a few times when he kept staring."

"Hey, what about me?" Buffy asks in a mock upset tone. "Just this afternoon we were discussing your breasts…oops." Buffy trails off turning red.

Laughing at Buffy, Kelly catches Tara's eyes in the rearview mirror and winks. "You just got a thing about one breast, not both. So I don't think that counts."

Willow gets a confused look on her face "One breast? Why just one breast? I mean if you like them, you like both, right? Not just one?"

Kelly snorts out a laugh when she hears Buffy mumbling under her breathe about getting the other one pierced.

"Is that what you want for Christmas Buffy? Me to do the other one, hmm?" Kelly asks in a husky voice.

"What are you two talking about?" Willow asks, still confused.

Buffy huffs loudly and turns to face Willow. "She has a nipple piercing. Just one. She noticed I seem to gravitate towards that one all the time, so she's been teasing me this afternoon about getting the other one pierced."

Kelly chuckles and glances at Buffy "I'm gonna remember to bring this conversation up, the next time you try to hush me for over sharing!!" Making Tara and Willow both laugh at Buffy.

Tara grins before stating "Yeah, Buffy! Share and share alike!"

"TARA!" Buffy shouts in shock.

"What?" Looking to Willow, Tara raises her eyes and gives her vixeny look. "You do know that Willow and I have hot monkey loving, sweet love making, screaming org…ooommmmmffff" Willow cuts off her lovers monologue with a kiss.

"Okay, who's over sharing now?" She grumbles looking at Tara as she pulls away.

Shaking her finger at Kelly, Buffy states heatedly "It's all your fault. I know it is!! You're making everyone's normal inhibitions disappear, making them say things they normally never would!"

"Speak for yourself" Tara growls looking at Willow. "I say these kind of things all the time, don't I sweetie?"

Willow gulps at the look in Tara's eyes. "Y-Y-Yes. But normally nobody else catches it!"

"Oh, but now Buffy will catch all the comments, she's got Kelly to help her out!" Tara grins at Kelly. Seeing the twinkle in her eyes in the rearview mirror as she glances back at Tara.

"I don't know. Sometimes she still doesn't catch things. But I'm working on it!" Kelly smiles at Buffy as they pull into the parking garage of Xander and Anya's building.

"What apartment number is theirs?" Kelly asks as she unbuckles, opening the door.

Tara unbuckles, getting out "I'll go with."

"Hey!" Buffy yells, catching Kelly's arms before she's completely out of the vehicle.

Turning to look at Buffy, leaning back in the vehicle Kelly asks "Yes, babe?"

"Kiss." Buffy states, unhooking her belt, leaning over the seat to kiss Kelly lightly on the lips before pulling back, smiling.

"Nope, you stop me, I want a proper kiss." Kelly growls, leaning in further, reaching around Buffy's neck to gently tug her towards her and kissing her slowly and passionately, before pulling away. "Now, that's a kiss." Before meeting up with Tara at the front of the vehicle, leaving a slightly dazed slayer behind.

Willow watches the whole interaction with her mouth hanging open. "Wow!" She states surprised.

Buffy finally comes down from the cloud she's on and looks at Willow. "Oh, yeah." Before turning watching Kelly walk into the elevator behind Tara.

Turning back to smile at Willow, Buffy shakes her finger "You! I thought we were best friends!"

Willow looks at the smiling Buffy wondering what she was up to. "What did I do? And we are best friends!"

"You're supposed to let your best friend in on these kind of secrets, Willow. You have been severely slacking in the whole girl on girl action thing." Buffy smiles widely. "I mean, mind blowing!! It just isn't fair that you kept all this information to yourself!"

"But…you were…guys…" Willow trails off not knowing what to say.

Grinning wickedly at the hacker Buffy leans between the seats so she's almost nose to nose with Willow. "That woman is driving me completely insane! The things she does to me!! Just this morning,.." Buffy trails off thinking about the way Kelly pounced on her and literally made her explode in minutes. Growling low in her throat she looks back to see if she's come back down yet.

"Buffy!" Willow whines. "You can't just stop there."

"Where? Where did I stop?" Buffy asks distractedly.

"What did she do this morning?" Willow asks excitedly, bouncing up and down in her seat.

"I was picking on her this morning – and no it wasn't in a sexual way – and she literally pounces on me and it was like…wow…instantaneous." Buffy shakes her head, her eyes glazing over slightly.

Willow giggles at the slayer. "They're coming out of the elevator, Buff."

Tara walks up to the door, first shaking her head at Anya. "Honey, why don't we sit in the back seats and let Anya and Xander have the middle seats?"

"Okay." Willow answers chirpily, climbing into the back. Followed by Tara who leans in giving her a quick kiss before whispering in her ear "Anya has been arguing with Xander the whole way here that Kelly and Buffy are orgasm friends, and Kelly just looked at her with a raised eyebrow when she asked her about it, saying that maybe she should ask Buffy."

Kelly gets into the driver seat with a roll of her eyes at the Slayer and a big grin on her face.

Buffy turns to look at Anya and Xander, Xander is almost red, sputtering and Anya is going on saying I know they are.

"What are you two arguing about?" Buffy asks questioningly, already knowing. Slowly laying her hand across Kelly's thigh to help support herself with her body twisted around to look behind her. Grinning when she hears an almost imperceptible moan come from Kelly, she eases her hand further up her thigh to rest gently at the seam of her crotch. Hearing a lightly muttered watch it coming from Kelly, Buffy giggles.

"I think you and Kelly are orgasm buddies. Xander thinks I'm wrong. So are you two orgasm buddies now?" Any asks in her typical blunt way.

"Ahn!! Not everyone is orgasm buddies. Oh God! Now I'm saying orgasm buddies." Xander moans shaking his head in disbelief.

"Well, Xander. I hope you didn't make any bets with Anya, because she's right." Buffy grins at Xander. Leaning in closer to Kelly giving her a quick kiss on the cheek, before pushing gently against the seam of her jeans to press against her clit, making her groan a little louder. Pulling away to sit back down and put on her seatbelt she grins at the shocked, and yes, glazed look of one Xander Harris.

Shaking her head, Kelly gets the vehicle moving to head out to the restaurant.

Anya smacks him on the arm smiling "I told you! So, how is it Buffy? Do you enjoy being a lesbian now?"

Willow and Tara giggle in the backseat, enjoying the show. Willow can't help but pipe up "Oh, yeah she's enjoying it! You should have heard her right before you guys got here!" Tara turns and looks at Willow with a raised eyebrow.

Kelly pulls the vehicle back over and turns to look at Buffy "Sharing, again? You SO do not have a leg to stand on when I get going, understood?" Kelly smirks at the slayer.

Buffy, blushing profusely grumbles, "Damn Willow and her big mouth." Making the rest of the group start laughing. "I'm sorry, baby?" Buffy half apologizes, half whines.

Crossing her arms over her chest she gives Buffy a look before stating "You so owe me."

Before grinning and turning back to continue on their drive.

Xander looks from Kelly to Buffy and back again. "When? How? Why? And again, how?" he questions.

Kelly starts to smirk, peeking a look at Buffy who isn't opening her mouth. Quickly stating "Saturday night after patrol. Started in the chair, finished on the cooommmfff." Buffy's hand cuts off Kelly's words.

Keeping her hand over Kelly's mouth, she turns her head to look at Xander who's eyes are as big as saucers "None of your business, Xander! And don't you dare think about getting Kelly by herself to tell you." Giving Kelly a death glare "Knowing her she would probably give you any details you want, but IT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN." Slowly pulling her hand away, figuring she got her point across. Buffy turns and sits in her seat properly.

"But Buffy, honey." Kelly says in a syrupy sweet voice "He may be wanting pointers, you know, to make sure he's doing things right."

Anya pipes up "Oh, don't worry about that Kelly. I've lived over 1200 years, There isn't much of anything I haven't seen or done, and I have taught everything I know to Xander. He is very well versed on how to please a woman."

Everybody in the vehicle turns and looks at Xander, making him blush profusely and then just shrug his shoulders and grin. "What can I say, it's the truth."

Kelly snorted out a tiny laugh and then busts up hysterically "We definitely…. need to get… together now. Maybe I…. need pointers!!" In between gut wrenching laughs.

Everyone else started laughing and shaking their heads and Anya just looks at them all "What is so funny? It's the truth."

Buffy catches her breath looking at Kelly and with a leering grin growls lowly leaning in to Kelly "You don't need any pointers. You've been doing extremely well on your own. If you do any better I won't be able to walk. Hell, sometimes I can't walk already!"

Kelly catches her breath at the growl in Buffy's voice, turning to look at Buffy with lust filled eyes. "You keep growling like that we won't make dinner." Leaning in and giving Buffy a quick hard kiss.

"Okay, guys. Someone please change the topic of conversation to something a little less…personal?" Buffy asks.

"Yeah, we need to head to the restaurant if we want to make the reservations." Kelly laughs quietly.

"Hey. Where are you taking us to eat?" Willow speaks up from the back, running her hand lightly up and down Tara's thigh.

"This little restaurant I came across Monday, while I was out wasting time. It's a Greek restaurant. I hope nobody has a dislike for Greek. Does anyone?" Kelly asks slightly worried.

Buffy shakes her head "I like pretty much anything."

Xander shrugs his shoulders "Can't say that I've ever had it, but I'm game."

Anya smiles big "I absolutely adore good Greek food. This one time when I was called away on a wish…"

"Ahn, please not right now." Xander begs.

"Oh,okay. But Kelly hasn't gotten to hear any of my stories." Anya pouts.

"Anya, how about I come by one day and bring lunch at the Magic Box and you can tell me some of your stories?" Kelly states with a small grin, that gets wider when Buffy snaps her head to look at her like she's gone crazy.

"That would be wonderful." Anya states with a happy smile. "See, some people like to hear about my past deeds."

Looking up in the rearview mirror Kelly sees the two lovebirds making out in the back, ignoring everything around them. "Yo, Willow. Tara! Do you two like Greek food?"

Pulling away quickly Willow frowns at being interrupted and tries to remember what Kelly was asking them.

Tara smiles lop-sided at Kelly "Yes, we like Greek food. We've only had it a few times over the years."

"Okay, that makes four yes' and two don't knows. Buffy and Xander, if you don't like it I will buy the biggest, juiciest, tenderest steaks I can and grill them for both of you, along with baked potatoes, sautéed mushrooms, and salad tomorrow night! How does that sound?" Kelly grins over at Buffy.

"You could do that anyway" Buffy pouts adoringly at Kelly.

"Yes, what about the rest of us Kelly? You would fix it just for those two and not us?" Tara gets her shot in.

"Aaarghh. Yes, you all can come over and I'll grill out tomorrow night! Jeeze you guys act like you don't ever eat." Kelly grumbles loudly, making everyone laugh.

Pulling into the parking lot Kelly hops out and quickly runs around to open Buffy's door. "Milady." She bows, helping Buffy out of the Hummer with a huge grin, lightly kissing her hand.

Xander gets out, holding his door open for Willow to follow and Anya hops out with Tara quickly following her.

Anya smacks Xander on the shoulder. "She knows how to treat a woman. Why don't you ever open the door for me? Or kiss my hand?" She smacks him again for good measure.

Xander smacks Kelly in retaliation.

"Hey, why am I getting smacked?" Kelly grumps.

"It's your fault Anya keeps smacking me!" Xander whines.

So Buffy smacks Xander.

"Ow! Why are you smacking me for? And did I say Ow!" Xander yells, rubbing his arm.

"That's for ogling my girlfriend's breasts." Buffy states and laughs, grabbing Kelly's hand and walking toward the restaurant, following Anya, Tara and Willow.

"This is so not good for my health." Xander pouts following the other women in but perks up, realizing he's at a restaurant with five beautiful women. And four of them are gay? lesbian? Bi-sexual? Whatever. Xander drifts off to fantasy land.

"Oh, my. This was absolutely delicious. I never realized this restaurant was here." Tara grins, sipping her water, leaning back watching Kelly and Buffy.

Kelly looks up smiling at Tara. "So, did everyone enjoy?" She asks looking back at Buffy.

Everyone answers in chorus' of great, delicious, got to do it again…

Guido checks to see if anyone needs anything else before bringing the bill over. "Thanks Guido. Did you get the Desserts I ordered ready to go?" Kelly asks, as she reaches in to grab some money out of her wallet.

"Yes, Miss Kelly. They are ready for you at the maitre d's station. It was a pleasure seeing you again, along with all your friends. Please, I hope you come back to visit my restaurant again." He states smiling at the group of young people.

"I might be able to talk them into coming here again" Kelly grins with a twinkle in her eye.

Glancing quickly at the bill, Kelly pulls out a few bills, throwing them on the table. "Thanks for a wonderful dinner, Guido."

Guido waves bye to them as they leave the restaurant, Kelly grabbing up the bags of dessert on their way out.

Quickly putting the bags in the back of the vehicle, Kelly climbs in after making sure everybody got in okay.

"So, homeward bound for everyone? Or do you guys want to do something else while we're out and about?" Kelly asks before putting the vehicle in gear.

"Well, I have an early start tomorrow with the crew." Xander states shrugging his shoulders. "Anya and I should probably head home."

"Yeah, I have a few papers left to grade." Tara states with an apologetic smile.

"Okay. Homeward bound it is. We probably need to get going on patrol, anyway." Kelly smiles looking over at Buffy.

"Patrol bad. Home good." Buffy states in her cave Buffy voice.

Willow and Xander groan. "Beer bad, Buffy." Willow states laughing.

Buffy grins "Girl Pretty." Making everyone laugh, but Kelly.

"How come I got a feeling I'm missing something here?" She questions, heading towards Xander's apartment.

Buffy pats her on the leg, "It's a long story, I'll tell you out on patrol tonight."

As they pull into Xander's parking garage, Kelly hops out to make sure they get to their apartment okay.

"Kelly, you know you don't have to make sure we're okay. We're Scoobies. We can take care of ourselves." Xander states with a thankful smile.

Shrugging Kelly hands them a bag filled with desserts and states "I like to make sure. Have a good night you two. Dinner at Buffy's tomorrow, 6:30?"

"We'll be there." Xander smiles, as him and Anya goes into the apartment.

"Don't forget, we need to do lunch soon." Anya reminds Kelly.

"After the new year will probably be a good time." Kelly smiles at the ex-vengeance demon. Waving as she heads back, running down the stairs instead of waiting on the elevator.

Hopping into the vehicle, Kelly drives over to Willow and Tara's, dropping them off.

Tara gives Kelly a hug and a kiss on the cheek before taking the bag from her smiling. "Thanks for dinner, sis. We had a wonderful time."

"Me too See you two tomorrow night?" Kelly grins watching as Willow hugs Buffy before receiving a hug from her also.

"Yepper. See you tomorrow night." Willow smiles as they head into their house.

Wrapping her arm loosely around the slayer's waist Kelly states "I think everyone had a good time."

Nodding in agreement Buffy stops by the door of the Hummer as Kelly opens it and reaches up wrapping her arms around her neck, kissing her deeply.

Groaning into the slayer's mouth, Kelly pulls her in closer, lifting her up slightly till their breasts rub against each other, kneading her ass.

"You are an absolutely wonderful person, you know that?" Buffy whispers as she breaks away from the kiss, breathing heavily.

"Nope. You're the wonderful person. I'm just me." Kelly pants before pressing a quick kiss on Buffy's lips. "Let's go home and get ready for patrol. The sooner we get going the sooner we get home!"

Buffy laughs "Can't disagree with that."

"Enchanted beer?" Kelly laughs. Then stops, grabs Buffy up and swings her around. "I think I might have liked Cave Buffy. Wanna play sometime? You can knock me over the head with your stick and drag me back to your cave to have your wicked way with me." Kelly smirks at Buffy.

"I think I will forgo the knocking your over the head and just have my wicked way with you" Buffy laughs at Kelly. "Will you put me down?" As Kelly keeps swinging her around.

"Nope." Kelly disagrees, leaning down to pick Buffy up on her shoulders. "I think you need a new perspective on life." As she laughs, tucking Buffy's legs under her armpits. Growling at the slayer as she grabs a handful of hair to help steady herself. "Keep that up and we won't be going on patrol. I'll be taking you back to the house and pouncing on you again!"

Buffy laughs "Nuh, uh. It's my turn to pounce on you. You've done pounced on me twice today."

Kelly stops walking and tilts her head up to look at Buffy. "Have I told you how much I love you today?"

"No you haven't. I was starting to wonder…" Buffy grins down at the brunette, lightly raking her fingers over her scalp smiling at the groan she receives. "Can I get down? I mean this probably wouldn't be the best place for me to be if we get attacked."

"We've checked out two different cemeteries and there hasn't been any activity whatsoever." Kelly states with a worried frown, as she kneels to let Buffy get down from her shoulders. "The other night we had 15 vampires attack us pretty much at the same time. Is it usually like this?"

Buffy shakes her head "No, I usually don't have that many vampires attack at once. Most of the time the max is five. Usually I'll run across two at a time."

"Huh. Where does Clem live? Should we go visit him, or will he come see you if he finds out something?" Kelly asks as they continue walking.

"He'll let me know. He has all my contact numbers and knows where I live." Buffy states feeling her spidey senses start to tingle.

Kelly all of a sudden stiffens slightly and starts looking a little more carefully, not obviously, but Buffy can tell she feels something. "You feel it?" Kelly nods while they continue walking.

"So how do you like your steak?" Kelly asks waiting for whatever it is too show itself.

"Medium. I like it nice and pink but not bloody. Get enough of that as is." Buffy states with a wrinkle of her nose.

All of a sudden a gigantic green lizard looking demon jumps out from behind a tree, taking a swing at Buffy. Ducking the blow, Buffy swings around and does a back spin kick into the demons knee, shattering it. As the demon collapses down onto the other knee groaning Buffy kicks it hard in the chest, knocking it onto it's back. Grabbing it by it's neck Buffy growls in its face "Who are you and what are you doing here?"

Hissing at the Slayer the lizard demon grabs her by the jacket and throws her 15 feet away. As the slayer tucks into a ball, rolling, Kelly swings with her sword into the side of the demons neck. Imbedding the blade a quarter of the way through the demons neck, just making it angrier.

"Fuck me!" Kelly yells before yanking her sword out quickly and rolling out of the way of the madly swinging demon. "Thicken" Kelly yells, trying to stop the demon from moving. "Shit! It must be immune to magic." as the demon kept swinging, not slowing at all as it slices Kelly with one of its claws. Kelly quickly swings her sword down on the wrist of the hand that sliced her, cutting through it.

"Hey, lizard breathe, come and get me." Buffy yells, getting it's attention away from Kelly before swinging with every bit of her slayer strength beheading the demon. Making sure it was dead, Buffy quickly runs over to a slowly standing Kelly.

Straightening up Kelly winces slightly before giving the blonde a half smile. "I'm okay. Just more or less got a little knicked."

Moving Kelly's hand from her side, Buffy frowns , slowly pulling the jacket off looking at the sliced shirt and the blood oozing from the cut in Kelly's side. "This might need stitches, Kelly."

Shrugging Kelly smiles slightly. "Can you do it?" At Buffy's nod Kelly's smile widens a little. Looking down at her side she shakes her head "I must be getting old. One time that would have never even come close to getting me. Can you finish ripping the bottom of my shirt for me?"

Buffy nods, ripping off the bottom of Kelly's shirt, bundling it up to press it against Kelly's side as a make-shift bandage. "It isn't bleeding heavily, but it could need stitches, I'll be able to tell better once we get it cleaned up."

Wincing slightly Kelly "Can you tear another strip off my shirt, that way we can use it to keep the bandage in place before I put my jacket back on? It isn't bad enough to rush back home for, we can finish patrol." Kelly finishes quietly.

"No, we've done enough. We should head back to the house." Buffy states worriedly, while cutting another strip from Kelly's shirt frowning slightly. "You could have been seriously hurt."

"Buffy. It's not your fault. I was too slow. Plus the fact, we didn't know it was immune to magic. There aren't that many demons that are immune, but it would figure that we would come across one that was." Kelly grins trying to put the slayer at ease.

Shaking her head slightly, Buffy wraps the strip around Kelly and knotting it to hold the bandage in place until they get home. Reaching down and picking up Kelly's jacket she gingerly helps Kelly into it.

Snorting out a half laugh Kelly looks at Buffy shaking her head.

Buffy notices and asks "What?"

"I'm not that fragile Buffy. Yeah it hurts a little, but not bad. I've hurt myself worse shaving my legs!" Finally Kelly thinks, seeing the slayer smile, about damn time.

Dropping their gear by the door as they came in the house, both women head upstairs to the bathroom. As Kelly eases off her jacket she smiles as Buffy starts digging under the sink pulling out the first aid kit. Sitting down on the toilet seat Kelly shakes her head and snorts back a laugh before leaning over to unlace her boots, kicking them off and taking her socks off before standing up, slowly unbuttoning and unzipping her pants before pushing them down her hips along with her underwear.

Buffy's standing there watching Kelly strip with a confused look on her face. "What are you doing?"

Kelly looks up surprised. "Taking my clothes off, I thought that was kind of obvious." Slowly lifting her shirt off.

Rolling her eyes at the brunette Buffy growls "Yeah, I know you're taking your clothes off, but why are you taking your clothes off?"

"I need a shower and I figured it would be a good thing to shower first and then you can do your thing." With a raised eyebrow Kelly looks at Buffy "Not a good idea? Practice Girl some help here?" Kelly points to her bra.

With a rude remark about stubborn Marines Buffy turns Kelly around unhooking her bra and helping her out of it. "Do you want me to take the bandage off too?"

Kelly shakes her head no. "I think it may be kind of attached right now. You can unknot the strip holding it on, and I'll try and ease it away from the wound in the shower." Leering down at Buffy with a wicked glint in her eye Kelly growls "Would you like to help me with my shower? I mean, hell, ALL this blood loss, I might get faint and fall down, bang my head or something."

Buffy laughs a half laugh before shaking her head and finally relaxing some starts laughing a little more freely. "What am I gonna do with you?" Before setting the first aid kit down and tweaking Kelly's pierced nipple.

Walking over to the shower, Buffy turns the water on while quickly divesting herself of her clothes. Leaning back in to check the water temperature she yelps as she feels Kelly's hand reach around, cupping her sex firmly before she feels teeth biting lightly on the back of her neck.

"You are the sexiest woman I know." Kelly growls in her ear. "I could spend the rest of my life making love to you." Hearing Buffy groan Kelly smiles as she licks up the side of the slayer's neck. Lightly running her middle finger between the slayer's lips, feeling the wetness starting to ease from the slayer's body Kelly's smile gets bigger. Stroking lightly back and forth, spreading the moisture Kelly quickly circles the slayer's clit, making her push hard against Kelly's hand.

Groaning at the pleasure Buffy shakes her head, reaching down, grasping Kelly's wrist and pulling that pleasure giving appendage away from her body before turning and looking Kelly in the eye. "You are hurt, you need to take a shower and then I need to check out your wound and get you bandaged up. If you don't behave, I won't be going in the shower with you." Buffy threatens.

Pouting slightly Kelly grumbles under her breath "take all my fun away, why don't you. How about a compromise?" Kelly's eyes light up at the thought.

Scowling at Kelly, wondering what she's up to, Buffy asks "What kind of a compromise?"

"I'll behave while we shower and get me all bandaged up. IF I get to have my way with you afterwards?" Kelly smiles sweetly at the slayer.

"Oh, like you wouldn't be having your way with me anyways?" Buffy sarcastically states.

"Not if you didn't want me to have my way with you. I mean a simple no is all it takes." Kelly states sincerely.

"Like that's EVER gonna happen." Buffy says with a small smile making its way across her face. "Get in the shower before we run out of hot water."

"I'm a Marine, we don't need hot water. Give us a puddle and we'll be happy as pig in shit." Kelly laughs before stepping into the shower groaning in pleasure as the water hits her body.

"Hey, no groaning until I'm in here." Buffy smiles getting in behind the brunette. Watching her lover close her eyes and just let the water run over her head and down her body Buffy inhales deeply. 'Oh my God. I shouldn't have inhaled. I can smell her arousal so strongly. Think of something else, Buffy. Need to get her all cleaned up and checked out before anything else happens.' Reaching over for the shampoo Buffy smiles, pouring a small amount in her palm before setting it down and reaching for Kelly, pulling her away from the water so that it's just running down her back. Reaching up, Buffy works the shampoo into a rich lather smiling at the grunts of pleasure coming from Kelly as she rakes her nails repeatedly over her scalp. "Lean your head back so I can rinse the shampoo from your hair." Buffy huskily asks.

Leaning her head back with her eyes still closed, Kelly just smiles in pleasure. Feeling that the shirt has loosened up quite a bit, Kelly opens her eyes looking down, reaching with one hand to gently pull, to see if it's ready to let loose. With a little tug it comes free. Grabbing the wash rag Kelly reaches down for the shower gel, putting a small amount on it, getting ready to wash the dried blood away from her side to be able to inspect the wound better when Buffy gently takes the wash rag away from her, kneeling down beside her in the bathtub, Buffy lightly runs the wash rag repeatedly over the injured area, cleaning it gently.

Shaking her head Buffy realizes that kneeling down this close to Kelly's sex is not a good idea. Seeing the wound in the light, the slayer realizes it's not as bad as she first thought. Looking up and smiling at Kelly she states "It isn't as bad as I thought. We should be able to get away with a couple butterfly strips to be on the safe side and a bandage."

"Told you it wasn't that bad." Kelly grins as she reaches down, running her hand lightly through her hair. "Come on, let's get showered so that you can play Nurse Summers and I can be the lecherous old patient." Kelly grins wickedly at the Slayer.

"You are completely incorrigible." Buffy laughs at her lover. "But I love you anyway."

"That's a good thing, because I love you, too!" Kelly smiles, grasping Buffy's hand and helping her to stand before grabbing the wash rag away from her, throwing it behind her in the tub before grasping the shampoo "You need to finish getting your hair wet, so I can return the favor."

Buffy shakes her finger at Kelly "You promised to behave, so I will wash myself, thank you very much." Laughing at the pout coming from the brunette Buffy leans forward and places a light kiss on that bottom lip. "We'll have other shower play dates, how does that sound?"

Nodding her head excitedly Kelly grins "I can go for that." Handing the shampoo to Buffy, she let's Buffy get under the water while grasping the shower gel and washing herself down quickly all the while watching Buffy shampoo her hair before starting to wash her body. Groaning at the soap suds running down the slayer's stomach and catching briefly on the curls at the apex of her thighs Kelly closes her eyes.

Buffy catches the groan and her breath hitches seeing the look of passion on Kelly's face. "Kelly?" Buffy questions lightly.

Shaking her head Kelly just moans out "Just finish with the shower Buffy, please." Keeping her eyes closed she hears Buffy finish and get out of the shower before opening her eyes and reaching down, turning the hot water off until cold water blasts out on her overheated body. After a few minutes, the edge is taken off and Kelly steps out of the shower to see Buffy wrapped up in a towel, looking inquisitively at her.

Quickly drying herself off, Kelly looks at Buffy. "Would it be easier in here or lying on the bed?"

Buffy contemplates looking from the toilet seat to Kelly's side. "Probably you lying down on the bed would be easier."

Nodding Kelly quickly heads to her bedroom, laying down on her uninjured side. Looking down at the wound Kelly nods her head. "No, it isn't that bad. We could have continued patrol."

Buffy shakes her head. "We did enough, plus it's better to be safe than sorry." Quickly disinfecting the area Buffy decides it would be a waste to even bother with the butterfly bandages, so just quickly puts a pad over and tapes it down. Quickly repackaging the First Aid kit, Buffy gets off the bed and returns it to the bathroom.

Walking back into the bedroom she almost laughs, Kelly has pulled the covers down and is laying in the bed, lightly patting the spot beside her with a huge grin on her face. "Come here my wee lass, I would like to speak with thee." Kelly does a halfway decent brogue accent to the slayer with a cock of an eyebrow.

Not being able to keep it in the slayer laughs at Kelly and lays down beside her leaning in and nipping almost roughly at Kelly's bottom lip. Catching it between her teeth and pulling it away before releasing and heading back in for a rough battle of tongues. First one then the other chasing each other back and forth from one mouth to the other before Buffy nips the end of Kelly's tongue, pulling back to pull in some much needed oxygen.

Buffy watches Kelly's eyes darken as they are both panting heavily. "Are you sore…from last…night? Buffy pants out the question haltingly. At the look on Kelly's face to that question, Buffy has to close her eyes. "Oh, God Kelly. I-I was just wondering if you were sore." Opening her eyes to look at Kelly again she shakes her head.

"Buffy, you have been teasing me all night tonight. The grope and feel sessions in the vehicle, the playing with me under the table at the restaurant…You've had me on edge all fucking night long." Pulling the slayer to her roughly, Kelly smashes her lips to the slayers, stroking her tongue strongly against Buffy's tongue. Breaking away, Kelly starts nibbling down the slayer's neck, sucking hard on the pulse point, so hard it may actually leave a mark for the morning even with slayer healing.

Groaning as Kelly bites and scrapes her teeth down her neck, Buffy pushes Kelly away and onto her back, quickly straddling the brunette. "You had your way with me this morning and again this afternoon. It's my turn to play." Buffy growls, leaning down and nipping at the mark on her neck that she had unknowingly placed there the night before.

Nipping her way strongly down to Kelly's breasts, Buffy sucks the nipple into her mouth before nipping it roughly, while tugging on the nipple ring with her fingers, groaning as one of Kelly's hands makes its way down to her butt, roughly kneading and groping while the other hand lightly holds her head to the breast arching up into her mouth. Shifting her body so one thigh is between Kelly's legs, Buffy presses hard against Kelly making her growl low and deep in her throat.

"Buffy!" Kelly hoarsely shouts, capturing the thigh with her legs, pulling the slayer to her as she roughly pushes herself against the thigh, quickly coating it with her juices. Rocking hard against the slayer's thigh just seems to frustrate the brunette, making her wetter and hornier. Pulling Buffy's head up, Kelly looks her in the eye, still rocking hard against the slayer "I want you. I want it rough and hard." Growling deep in her throat, her eyes almost black with desire, "I want you to fuck me Buffy."

Buffy almost comes just from the words Kelly is saying. Knowing that Kelly needs this in a really bad way, Buffy quickly unwraps the brunette's legs from around her and slides down her body, biting down hard on her lower abdomen, making Kelly arch up groaning in pleasure. Looking down, seeing that Kelly is literally soaking wet Buffy can't help but lick up some of the juices flowing from her, quickly flicking her tongue across the hard swollen clit that is peaking out from it's hiding place, making Kelly buck up quickly in response.

Buffy quickly runs her whole hand through the juices flowing from Kelly, getting it wet and ready. Looking up to watch and see Kelly react to this, what she missed last night by coming from behind, Buffy slowly eases her hand into Kelly, Stopping part way as Kelly's muscles clench down hard on the hand, making Kelly groan. As the muscles ease, Buffy pulls out slightly before easing further in. As the thickest part of her hand eases past the tight ring of muscles, Buffy gently closes her hand into a fist, pushing in slowly. Seeing the absolute pleasure on Kelly's face from this Buffy smiles before leaning down and sucking her clit into her mouth, hard. Sucking continuously until Kelly comes in her mouth, hips rocking against her fist, muscles clenching and releasing.

Buffy tried for an easy and slow rhythm inside Kelly's body, but Kelly just growled, rocking her hips hard against her fist. "I'm afraid I might…"

Kelly interrupts her "I said fuck me. Please!! Fuck me, hard."

Buffy pulls her body up to keep an eye on Kelly, to make sure she isn't hurting her as she increases the pounding of her fist inside Kelly, almost fainting from the pleasure of feeling Kelly's muscles contract around her arm and the essence literally flowing from her. Pushing a little harder and faster Buffy watches the pleasure crossing Kelly's face as Kelly clenches down hard on her arm, mouth opening in a silent scream as she comes. Feeling the ricochet from Kelly like before, but stronger, Buffy groans at the pleasure. Waiting feeling the muscles starting to relax, Buffy goes to ease out of her when Kelly starts rocking again looking down at Buffy's eyes, Kelly's dazed hungry eyes looking at her telling her that she wants more. Swallowing hard Buffy picks up the pace, and before she realizes it she's pounding into Kelly using her slayer strength.

"Yes!" Kelly yells as Buffy finally starts to let go, rocking hard against the hand inside her Kelly closes her eyes. 'Oh, God. I am gonna be sore tomorrow…but it feels soooo good right now.' Kelly thinks to herself rocking even harder and grins feeling Buffy push back a little harder and faster. As Kelly starts to see stars, feeling her whole body tightening in a release stronger than anything she ever imagined possible she opens her eyes wide crying out Buffy's name as she explodes, saturating Buffy, and the bed both before passing out, not even realizing her body is still rocking against Buffy's fist of it's own accord, as smaller but still intense orgasms work their way through her body.

Buffy, realizing that Kelly has had an earth shattering climax also realizes that she's passed out. Inhaling deeply, not believing what had just happened, she slows her hand down, shaking her head as she realizes Kelly's body is still responding and rocking back. She closes her eyes as she realizes Kelly is having more orgasms even after the huge one. Slowly, slowing her hand Buffy finally stops pushing into Kelly's body as it still rocks slightly, till about five minutes later it stops pushing against her hand. As Kelly's muscles relax, Buffy slowly eases her hand out, groaning at her own body's clenching and releasing in commiseration with the brunettes. Buffy snorts looking down at the bed and herself. 'Is that what I did on the couch? God knows I passed out and it was the absolute most fantastic orgasm I have ever imagined possible. Is that what I just gave Kelly?' Buffy thinks to herself as she slowly eases herself off the bed and stands up, she quickly grabs the bed as an orgasm rockets through her body. "Oh, God" She moans out loud at the pleasure coursing through her body. As she finally starts to calm down she realizes she's got liquid running down her own legs in more abundance than before.

Shaking her head she slowly walks to the bathroom, cleaning herself up before going to the linen closet grabbing up some towels. Shifting Kelly gently, Buffy spreads the towels out so they can sleep in comfort without sleeping in a puddle and giggles to herself, thinking they better invest in some rubber sheets if this is gonna keep happening. Grasping the covers and gently pulling them over Kelly, Buffy makes sure the alarm clock is set and turns off the light before climbing in bed beside the brunette. Easing closer to the body beside her, Buffy smiles as Kelly unconsciously wraps her arm around Buffy, pulling her close to her, urging her even in her sleep to lay on top of her.

As Buffy eases on top of Kelly, snuggling in with her favorite pillow under her cheek she smirks as one of Kelly's hands reaches down, grasping her ass and the other one wraps itself in her hair as Kelly snores lightly. Whispering "I love you." Buffy eases into unconsciousness herself.

Buffy grins as she slowly wakes up, having had the most wonderful dream before she frowns slightly…maybe it wasn't a dream, she realizes slightly rocking against the pleasure moving like molasses through her body. Looking at the lump under the covers between her legs. Lifting the edge of the sheets up she sees a dark head buried between her thighs and moans at the soft tongue slowly and gently licking at her clit, and the fingers easing in and out of her at a torturously slow rate.

"Kel…Kel…" Coughing, trying to clear her throat Buffy is finally able to get out "Kelly. What are you …" Buffy groans quietly feeling her body slowly ease over into orgasm, feeling the gentle flow through her whole body Buffy feels like she's melting from the inside out. "Oh, God!" Buffy moans and inhales as Kelly keeps up her ministrations, building Buffy to a higher plateau making her body shake slightly before gently biting down on her clit and curling her fingers inside Buffy, making her come long and slow. Buffy shakes her head from side to side, coming continuously feeling like it isn't ever gonna stop.

Finally fifteen minutes later, Kelly slowly eases up Buffy's body, smiling gently, licking her lips. Keeping the majority of her weight to her arms and knees Kelly lightly rubs her breasts against Buffy's. "Good morning, lover." Kelly states huskily before kissing Buffy lightly on her panting mouth.

Nodding her head in agreement Buffy finally is able to say "Oh, yeah. Good morning is right." Before opening her eyes to smile at Kelly. Pulling Kelly down to lay on her fully, ignoring her protests about her weight, Buffy hugs her tightly, at least as tightly as her spaghetti arms will let her.

Kelly mumbles against her neck, "I wanted to thank you properly for last night."

Laughing silently Buffy shakes her head. "If that's my thanks, I think I'll be doing that to you every night!" Feeling Kelly smile into her neck Buffy grins. "What time is it, anyway?"

"Hmmm." Kelly lifts her head to look at the clock. "It's 8:30. I got up about three hours ago, took a quick shower and made you breakfast. I covered it and put it in the oven to keep it warm before I came up here and spent a lovely couple hours making love to you."

"My God, Kelly. You were literally doing that for hours?" Buffy asks in disbelief.

Kelly lifts her head and leers down at Buffy. "Oh, yeah. Want to call in sick to work and have me do it for a few more hours?"

Shaking her head in shock Buffy just looks with amazement at her lover. "Exactly how many times did you make me come in my sleep? I mean I was having the most wonderful dream, but if you had been doing that…"

Kelly grins, before leaning down, lightly sucking at the spot where Buffy's neck meets her shoulder before laving it gently with her tongue. "Didn't count." She mumbled before easing her way further down Buffy's body lightly licking and sucking on the slayer's breast, switching gently from one to the other and back again.

Groaning at the pleasure building again in her body, Buffy grasps Kelly by her hair, tugging lightly to pull her back up her body.

"No, want to play." Kelly mumbles against the slayer's breast, ignoring the tugging.

"Kelly! I need to take a shower. I feel like, like one big come covered slayer!" Buffy whines lightly.

Laughing quietly before breaking out into gales of laughter Kelly finally gets out between laughs "You…. Are…. One… Big…. Come…. Cover… ed… Slayer!!!" Before collapsing back on top of Buffy with her head buried between her breasts still laughing uncontrollably.

Shaking her head at her lover, Buffy gently rolls the laughing brunette off her and shakes her finger at her. "You are not helping matters!" Making Kelly laugh even harder.

Grunting in disgust, Buffy gets out of bed and heads to take a shower and get ready for work.

"Breakfast burrito's?" Buffy questions looking at her plate full of cheese and sauce covered stuffed burrito shells.

"Yep, try 'em, you'll like 'em. Trust me" Kelly grins lasciviously at Buffy. "I haven't steered you wrong, yet. Have I? I mean, you have liked everything you're tried, right?"

Shaking her head in disbelief at her lover Buffy cuts into one of the burritos, but before eating it she looks at Kelly, pointing her fork at her "You are impossible." Scooping up the bite of burrito Buffy's eyes widen and she starts to smile as she quickly chews and swallows it before digging into her plate of food.

Laughing quietly to herself, Kelly sips her coffee enjoying watching Buffy eat. Taking a bite of her jam covered toast Kelly just shakes her head as Buffy literally demolishes the plate of food in three minutes flat before looking down at it in disappointment.

Letting out a slight laugh, Kelly gets up and grabs the other plate out of the oven, quickly uncovering it and putting it in front of the slayer. "Thought you might be extra hungry this morning." Before sitting back down to finish her toast and coffee.

"You are a Goddess." Buffy mumbles as she digs into the second plate of food. Eating it a little slower.

Chuckling Kelly gets up and pours herself another cup of coffee and topping Buffy's orange juice off.

Finishing her second plate full of food and smiling in satisfaction Buffy drinks her orange juice looking inquisitively at Kelly. "So, what are you going to do today?"

Smiling with a hint of wickedness Kelly states "Taking you to work, hitting the meat market for some steaks, grocery store to pick up some potato's and salad fixings, picking up a few last minute Christmas gifts I thought of and cleaning the mattress before dragging it out on the front porch to let it dry!" Kelly starts laughing.

Buffy frowns at the brunette, "don't they make rubber sheets or something so we can put them down and not have that big a…damp spot?"

"We could, but the fluid has to be soaked up somewhere, it would save the mattress. I guess between the rubber sheet and the regular sheets I could put some really absorbent towels. But that would mean we are still sleeping on damp sheets." Pausing to think Kelly frowns. "Or we could just have a stack of towels handy and lay them out before hand, just in case, then we can throw them in the hamper afterwards!! Of course, someone would have to be with it enough to do that."

Buffy starts thinking and shakes her head "Then doing all this takes the spontaneity and fun out of it…Screw it. Forget I even brought it up!" Buffy smiles. "What else are you going to do today?"

Kelly glances at the clock "Well, right this minute I'm taking your happy little ass to work. Come on."

On the drive in they continue the conversation. "I have a few phone calls to make and that's pretty much it for me. I might run by and see if Willow needs any help with anything after I get everything else done, before coming and picking you up." Kelly shrugs her shoulders as she pulls in the at the high school. "Did you need me to do anything?"

"Nope, just kiss me goodbye so I can go to work." Buffy smiles, leaning in kissing Kelly deeply before jumping at the sound of someone knocking on the window of the Hummer. "Figures." Buffy mumbles seeing Principal Wood looking in. "I think he has the hots for you. He mentioned you yesterday." Buffy mumbles quietly before leaning across Kelly, pressing the button to roll the window down. "Hi! Robin. How are you doing this fine morning?" Smacking Kelly out of sight, since Kelly's hand, hidden by Buffy's body, started rubbing Buffy's ass checks.

"Hi Principal Wood. Nice to see you again." Kelly states with a happy grin. Trying not to laugh at a certain slayer's hand working it's way in between her legs, pressing hard against her sex. Shifting her legs open slightly Kelly pushes her lower body against Buffy's hand, smiling even bigger when Buffy's eyes widen and she looks at her. Batting her eyelashes at Buffy in an 'oh so innocent look Kelly turns her attention back to Principal Wood. "Is there something we can help you with?"

Wood just looks from one woman to the other with a confused look on his face, trying to figure out what he's missing. "No, actually I didn't recognize this vehicle and was just being careful. You never can tell with this town. Miss Maclay, nice meeting you again. Buffy I'll see you inside."

Buffy giggles as Wood walks away and quickly stops, feeling Kelly slide her hand down further, tickling her folds through the pants. Pushing harder against Kelly's sex for pure meanness, Buffy pulls away and moves to the door to get out. "I will see you later, slick." Buffy states with a little grin.

Kelly groans and then smiles grabbing Buffy quickly before she gets out, growling in her ear "Slick is right. And you are gonna have to do something about it before we have company tonight!" Kelly licks up the side of the slayer's throat before releasing her and grinning widely.

Buffy just groans as she gets out of the vehicle. "I love you."

"Love you too, Buffy. I'll be here at two to pick you up." Kelly smiles as she watches Buffy quickly shut the door and head into the school. "God. Do I ever love you." Reaching down to make one of the phone calls on her list of things to do today. As it connects, she pulls out of the parking lot, heading towards the grocery store.

"Did you get everything taken care of?…..Good. Make sure that nothing goes wrong…. No, if it does I will have your hide nailed to a wall, understood?…Yes I'm taking care of it on the other end…No everything will be ready….Out." Hanging up Kelly smiles hugely.

Kelly grins at the leftovers. "I guess my fixing twenty pounds of meat fifteen pounds of baked potatoes, one gigantic salad, bread and cheesecake is enough for this crowd?" Let's see, I can fix Buffy steak and eggs with a side of hash browns for breakfast tomorrow with the leftovers. Kelly thinks quietly to herself.

Everyone nods their heads groaning. Xander looks like he is about ready to fall asleep in his chair. He did a damn fine job of eating his dinner. Kelly was actually impressed, he ate almost as much as Buffy. Looking over at her lover, Buffy is slowly finishing her piece of cheesecake and then leans back closing her eyes in bliss.

Luckily Anya, Tara and Willow didn't overstuff themselves like the rest of the group and were smiling and laughing at Buffy and Xander.

Tara laughs heartily "You two are gluttons for punishment."

Buffy opens her eyes wide looking at Kelly threatening "Don't you even open your mouth to make a comment."

Snapping her mouth closed quickly Kelly tries for an innocent look, making everyone at the table laugh.

"Busted!" Willow sing-songs.

Shrugging her shoulders "Oops." is all Kelly says before quickly getting up and gathering the plates to take into the kitchen.

Buffy hops up groaning slightly, helping her lover.

"Do you want some help?" Tara asks getting ready to stand up.

Shaking her head Buffy goes "No, we got it covered." Grabbing the leftover meat and potatoes, following Kelly into the kitchen, smiling as she watches Kelly rinse the dinner plates and utensils off before loading the dishwasher. Setting the leftovers on the island, Buffy reaches around her lover hugging her tightly. "Dinner was delicious. Thank you."

"You're welcome." Kelly smiles, rubbing her hands up and down the slayer's forearms before turning around, lifting Buffy up and setting her on the counter. "But the cook would like to have something a little more substantial as a thank you." She states smiling, easing between the slayer's thighs, nibbling on her neck.

Groaning in pleasure Buffy pulls back slightly. "And what would the cook like as a thank you?"

"Hmmm. I guess it really depends. If it was just an okay dinner I guess the verbal thank you would be enough. If it was a good dinner…maybe a kiss? A great dinner…" here Kelly leans in and whispers "a good tongue lashing? A spectacular dinner….Oh my goodness, what could I decide on for a spectacular dinner? I might need help with that one, got any ideas?" Pulling away with a wicked glint in her eye she smiles at the slayer, enjoying them being at eye level.

Wrapping her legs around Kelly, Buffy pulls her in tight against her body before kissing her passionately. Running her hands through Kelly's hair and moaning into Kelly's mouth as Kelly's hands work their way under Buffy's top, playing with her breasts.

All of a sudden, their play is interrupted by Tara sternly saying "Will you two stop ogling my sister and Buffy? Jeeze. You would think you have sex often enough that watching those two wouldn't do anything for you."

Kelly and Buffy break apart and look to see Xander blushing profusely and Anya still watching Buffy and Kelly grinning. Applauding Anya states "You two look like you really know what you are doing. If you ever decide you want to expand…" All of a sudden Xander's hand covers Anya's mouth.

"Ummm… Please ignore everything coming out of my girlfriends mouth. We are going home now! See you guys later." Xander states, gently pushing Anya towards the front door.

"Xander! That was not very nice. You always say that you would like to have more than one woman…." Anya's voice gets quieter as the front door shuts behind them. Leaving a blushing Buffy, burying her head against Kelly's neck. Tara and Willow just looking at each other trying to hold their laughter back and Kelly not even bothering to hold back as she laughs.

Smacking Kelly on the shoulder Buffy growls "That wasn't funny. It's all your fault."

"Umm, not to disagree, Buff. But you looked like you were a very willing participant. So it isn't just Kelly's fault." Willow eggs on her best friend glancing at Tara as they both start giggling.

"Don't you two start or Santa is going to be stingy at the Maclay-Rosenberg house this year!" Buffy huffs threateningly.

Kelly shakes her head smiling "Ignore poor sex starved slayer. She thinks she's deprived if she doesn't get it at least once an hour….Ow! Now that wasn't nice, now was it?" Kelly grumbles looking at the slayer who has just pinched her ass, hard. Rubbing the spot Kelly frowns at Buffy leaning in until they are nose to nose. "You will pay for that little one. Your ass will be mine tonight!"

Grinning Buffy just looks back at Kelly seeing the twinkle in her eye. "You have to catch me first!" she teases.

Grinning widely, Kelly quickly grabs Buffy lifting her over her shoulder and smacking her ass that's pointed up in the air. "Looks like I caught you pretty damn quick, slayer!"

Tara looks at Willow shaking her head "I think this is our cue to leave. Thanks for a wonderful dinner. We'll see you two later."

Setting Buffy down, she smiles, kissing her on the forehead before following the two witches out to make sure they get to their vehicle okay. Waving as the two pull out of the driveway Kelly's smile gets bigger as she feels a pair of arms wrap around her stomach, and a pair of small firm breasts push into her back tightly.

"I like this." Buffy quietly states, squeezing Kelly firmly before easing up on her hold.

"Like what? Trying to squeeze the stuffing out of me?" Kelly jokes.

"No. Holding you. Just being near you. Touching you whenever I want. Loving you." Buffy huskily states the last.

Groaning at the husky note in Buffy's voice Kelly quietly states "You can do all that and more anytime you want, Buffy. I love you."

Buffy giggles slightly "Yeah whenever I want, except when people are watching!"

"I don't know. I mean, I didn't really hear any complaints did you?" Kelly asks laughing slightly.

Running her hands up Kelly's abdomen and cupping her breasts, Buffy smiles hearing the slight intake of breathe. Rubbing lightly over the breasts Buffy tweaks both nipples hard, eliciting a loud groan from the brunette.

Growling lightly Kelly presses the hands harder into her breasts. "Are you starting something CCS? Out here on your front porch for anybody to see?"

"Maybe…What's this CCS?" Buffy asks questioning, still tweaking and pinching her lover's breasts.

"Hmmm…yeah that feels good…oh Come Covered Slayer…Pinch a little harder…Yeah…" Kelly groans loudly at feeling her nipples harden down into tight little nubs at the slayer's ministrations. All of a sudden yelping slightly when Buffy bites her firmly on the back.

"Let's take this in the house." Buffy growls. "And we'll see about who is gonna be come covered."

Moaning loudly at the thoughts dancing through her head, Kelly turns swiftly, pulling Buffy up into her arms kissing her hungrily. Moaning Buffy wraps her arms and legs around Kelly, Rubbing her body against Kelly's, sliding her short skirt farther up her thighs.

Carrying Buffy into the house, Kelly turns slamming the door shut and pushing Buffy against it. Growling "Did I tell you how much I like this skirt? Seeing your muscular tanned legs? Your firm ass enclad in tight leather?" Kelly runs her hands up the outside of Buffy's thighs, pushing the skirt farther up.

Buffy groans, pushing her wet center against Kelly's abdomen, wanting friction, needing to be touched. "Then I probably…shouldn't…tell you…I'm not wearing…underwear." Buffy pants out, grinding herself against Kelly.

"Oh, God!" Kelly moans, dropping to her knees, unwrapping Buffy's legs from her waist and lifting her up slightly so her thighs are around her head, burying her face against the slayer under the skirt, licking and sucking for all she's worth, bringing Buffy to climax in minutes. Slowing down slightly, Kelly reaches up, slowly running two fingers through the slayer's wet folds, separating and stroking over and over again, before slowly penetrating the slayer, not stroking in and out, just leaving her fingers inside her while lightly sucking and licking the clit that is spasming continuously against her lips and tongue. Groaning at the wetness dripping from the slayer, Kelly slowly eases her fingers out.

Buffy, growls "Kelly don't you dare…OOOHHH." she moans as Kelly eases back into her with three of her long, strong fingers.

Letting Buffy get used to the feel of the three fingers, Kelly slowly separates them and smiles at Buffy's response.

Moaning Kelly's name at the exquisite feeling of being stretched inside, Buffy rocks hard at Kelly's hand as she flicks her finger over the sweet spot inside her, continuously rubbing, making her tense up in pleasure. "Kelly…. Oh God Yes." Buffy pushes herself harder against Kelly's hand and mouth as she feels herself releasing the flood inside her growling Kelly's name loudly.

Slowly easing her fingers out of the slayer as her inner muscles relax, Kelly places a quick kiss on the slayer's lips before easing Buffy back onto her shaking legs, swiftly standing, lightly holding the slayer by the hips to make sure that she could stand on her own.

Not opening her eyes yet Buffy frowns "Why aren't you holding me?" She questions.

Chuckling Kelly looks down at herself before looking up at the slayer's beautiful face. "Why don't you open up those beautiful hazel eyes and you might see why."

Slowly opening her eyes, still hazy from the pleasure she just received Buffy looks questioningly into Kelly's eyes before looking down, seeing that Kelly literally is soaking wet from her chin down her chest to the top of her jeans.

Buffy's eyes get wide and then she starts smiling. "So I'm not the only one that's come covered, now am I?"

"Definitely not. But right now, at this particular moment in time I'm the only one. So I better get cleaned up and get ready for patrol." Kelly states with a slight smirk, heading upstairs.

Frowning at the fact that they need to go on patrol Buffy follows Kelly upstairs to get changed.

"So. You haven't told me what you want for Christmas yet and we're getting down to the last hour, here." Buffy states as they're patrolling down by the docks. She didn't often get this far out, but tried to hit here at least once a week.

Shaking her head Kelly smiles slightly. "I have everything I want, Buffy."

"Kelly, damn it!…" Buffy stops as she hears a scuffling in the alley they are passing. Quickly she heads down with Kelly following close behind.

Seeing two vampires trying to feed off what looked to be a run-a-way Buffy shakes her head before quickly pulling them off the girl. "Run. Go back home." Buffy tells the girl as she backhands one of the vampires that had gotten up from where she had thrown it against the building. Looking for the other one, she sees Kelly quickly turning it to dust before it even had a chance to get up from where Buffy had tossed it.

The girl runs away, crying as Buffy looks at the vampire coming at her again. Shoving the palm of her hand up into his nose, breaking it. Buffy quickly gets behind the vampire, grabbing hold so it can't go anywhere. "I want to ask you a few questions."

"I ain't telling you shit." The demon hissed.

Kelly walks closer cocking her head at the vampire. "You know what? You are an extremely unfriendly vampire aren't you?"

"I'm gonna fuckin' rip your heads off and drink your blood!" The vampire yells.

Buffy rolls her eyes. "You guys never get any new material. I want to know if there's someone after me. And if you know anything, you're going to tell me." She pulls the arm she's got behind the vampires back harder until they hear a loud pop as it dislocates, making the vampire scream in pain. "Now. What do you know?"

"I don't know shit!"

Kelly smiles at Buffy. "May I?" At Buffy's nod she looks at Buffy "Just keep hold of him."

Walking up to the vampire, Kelly swings back and kicks him hard in the balls, making him lean over, pulling Buffy slightly, puking up the blood he had just drank.

"Damn, Kelly. I think you made him even paler than he was." Buffy states in admiration.

"I have strong muscle legs." Kelly acknowledges.

"I know" Buffy grins.

Kelly leans down, grabbing the vampire by the hair and yanking his head back. "Now, do you know anything about someone hunting the slayer?"

Shaking his head he squeaks out in a higher voice than before "No…Just a week ago…" he stops as he coughs up some more blood. "A group of vampires were talking about ganging up on the slayer. That's all I know. Haven't seen any of them since."

Kelly pulls out a silver dagger that she had blessed by every different denomination church priest, pope, rabbi and reverend that she came across. Shoving it into the vampire's right shoulder blade she asks again after he stopped screaming "Is that all? Nothing else?"

"No. No. I swear that's all it was." The vampire cries out. Quickly yanking the knife out Kelly swiftly jabs it home in his dead heart, making him dust.

"Hey, how did you do that? It was just a silver blade, they don't make vampires dust." Buffy asks.

"They do when they've been blessed by everyone I can get to bless them! Not to mention once a month I soak it for a couple days in holy water." Kelly grins as she wipes the blade against some newspaper she found in the alley before tucking it away.

"Cool. Well, it looks like the other night was just a random group of vampires deciding to try and take me out. I'm glad it wasn't anything more sinister than that." Buffy states as they head out to continue patrolling.

Kelly nods in agreement. "Makes me feel better. But I still want to talk to a couple more, to make sure. Next time I might threaten to cut the vampires balls off instead of crushing them."

"Damn. I'll have to make sure to not piss you off." Buffy states with wide eyes.

"I'm not pissed. I don't like what's mine being threatened. I'll do whatever it takes to protect it." Kelly makes the words a simple statement of fact. "Plus the fact, I've only been pissed off once in my life. Trust me, you really don't want to see that." Kelly growls deeply.

"Do I want to ask?" Buffy questions as they head through one of Sunnydales many cemeteries.

"Maybe sometime I'll tell you. Right now, it's still too fresh and I'd rather not talk about it, if that's okay." Kelly states quietly, keeping her eyes searching the darkness for any threat.

"Okay." Buffy states nodding her head. Knowing Kelly will tell her in her own time. She hasn't hidden anything from her and been forthcoming on everything else, so Buffy doesn't doubt her about this.

"Ooh, looks like a newby." Buffy states, seeing a hand reaching out of a new grave. Before the vampire even could pull himself completely out, Buffy stakes him quickly.

Kelly looks at her with a questioning eyebrow. "I thought you like to play with them a little more than that."

Buffy shrugs her shoulders. "Tonight I would rather kill them quick and go play with someone else." She smirks at Kelly as they cruise around the cemetery before heading out.

Working their way through Sunnydale they come across another vampire that was so weak, it was a blessing to it just to end it's miserable life. "I want to hit the Bronze on the way to the campus before heading back home."

"Lead the way, boss." Kelly states with a slight grin on her face.

"Boss my ass." Buffy mumbles just loud enough for Kelly to hear and chuckle.

"You tell me what to do and I do it. Isn't that the simple definition of boss?" Kelly asks with a slight smirk on her face.

"Yeah, right." Buffy states with a smirk of her own.

"Hey, I'm a good Marine. I learned to take my orders and obey my commanders." Kelly states straightening up, standing at attention.

Buffy giggles "Then drop and give me twenty." And starts laughing as Kelly does drop and give her twenty. "What if I wanted you to give me twenty of something else?" She asks as Kelly pops back up.

"Then you need to be a little more specific" Kelly huskily states leaning in close to Buffy before nipping lightly at her lips, and slowly running her tongue over the slayer's bottom lip before pulling away.

Buffy groans shaking her head "Tease."

"Nope. Not a tease." Kelly states with a shake of her head as they continue on their way to the Bronze.

"What do you call that, then?" Buffy questions.

"A preview." Kelly states with a slight smile. "Because you will have the rest when we get back home."

When they reach the Bronze, they do a quick check in the alleyway and around the surrounding area before Kelly pulls out her wallet and pays the cover charge as they head in. "I'm not exactly dressed for a hot time in a club." Kelly states looking down with a slight frown at her jacket, pants and t-shirt.

"You're fine. There's no dress code, plus we're not really here to have a good time, anyway. More of a double-check to make sure no vamps are looking for an easy dinner." Buffy states easing her way through the crowd to circle around the club.

"How about I check upstairs." Kelly states seeing the stairs leading to the loft above.

"Be careful." Buffy states giving her a quick glance.

Nodding, Kelly quickly heads upstairs. Looking around and only noticing a few couples there, she opens her senses and doesn't feel anything off about any of them. Going to the railing, she looks down watching the crowd out on the dance floor. Not seeing anything out of the ordinary, Kelly looks for Buffy, locating her heading over to a dark corner where it looked like a couple were making out. Knowing that the woman was a vampire from her aura Kelly watches Buffy stake it quickly, before checking the guy out and helping him sit down, pressing some napkins from a nearby table against his wound.

Kelly quickly worked her way back downstairs to move closer to Buffy, relaxed but still keeping an eye open. Seeing a tall guy working his way over Kelly rolls her eyes. "Great. Not what I need" She mumbles quietly to herself as he gets closer. Looking quickly over at Buffy as she is slowly walking towards her, she smiles.

"Hey. Have I seen you here before?" The feeling no pain loser states to Kelly looking her up and down. "You're hot." Leering at her breasts.

Frowning Kelly shakes her head. "Find someone else loser." She states trying to ignore him. Until he grabs her arm and yanks her around to face him.

"I'm talking to you bitch. You one of those dyke bitches? Huh? You need a real man!" He grabs her trying to pull Kelly into a rough kiss and before he realizes it he's on the floor with Kelly's foot against his throat. Just there, not exerting any pressure.

"Don't fuck with me." Kelly states quietly "You don't know what kind of pain I can inflict on you. And if I ever see you treating another woman this way again, I'll kick your fucking balls so hard that you'll have to have a tonsillectomy to get them out, understood?" Kelly growls lowly so only the people closest to them could hear her.

The guy nearly pisses his pants before nodding his head as she releases him and let's him quickly head out of the bar.

Buffy is standing their watching everything shaking her head. "Some guys are jerks."

Nodding her head in agreement Kelly states "Not all monsters are demons. I think that was pretty much it. Onward?"

"Yep." Buffy states heading out of the Bronze.

On their way to the College campus Buffy chuckles. "Tonsillectomy, huh?"

Nodding her head Kelly goes, "Oh yeah. I might be able to do it without magic. One asshole new recruit Marine didn't understanding the meaning of 'no' and tried to force one of the girls in my platoon. Of course, with my past experience, that is one thing I will not tolerate. Needless to say, he had to have an operation to remove his testicles that I lodged up in his body." Shrugging her shoulders Kelly grins. "He ended up dishonorably discharged and put on the sexual predators list. To this day, I still get a Christmas card from that girl."

"Damn, girlfriend. Anything else you need to tell me?" Buffy asks grinning.

"Oh, I'm sure there is. Kind of like you probably have a ton of stories you can tell me. Part of the fun of getting to know someone, huh?" Kelly states smiling at Buffy as they reach the campus.

"I have a feeling between the two of us we will be telling stories to each other for the next 50 years." Buffy quirks a quick smile before kissing Kelly lightly on the cheek.

"God I hope so." Kelly states with all her heart looking down at Buffy.

Winking at Kelly Buffy grabs her hand, gently tugging it so they can continue their patrol. "Do many of the co-eds stay here at Christmas time?" Kelly asks.

"You would be surprised. I think a lot of them come from bad homes. Getting away from family…" Buffy's eyes widen and she looks at Kelly "I am so sorry, I didn't mean…"

Shaking her head Kelly smiles gently at Buffy. "It's okay, Buffy. Don't worry about hitting a sore spot." Kelly runs her hand lightly through Buffy's hair. "Let's check these campus kids and make sure everyone that's here is okay."

"Well, that was a relatively uneventful night." Buffy groans coming into the house. "I think the most excitement was at the Bronze when that guy ticked you off."

Snorting out a small laugh Kelly shakes her head, as she turns, locking the door behind her. "Personally, I think the most excitement happened right here" Kelly grins, pointing to the door as she sits down in her chair, making Buffy blush lightly.

Buffy walks behind the chair, lightly running her fingers through Kelly's hair. "Hey, you have a few grey hairs in here." Buffy jokes as she leans down kissing the top of Kelly's head. "Do you want something to drink?"

"I'll have you know I have earned every one of my grey hairs. And, yes please. I wouldn't mind having some juice. Thanks" Kelly rolls her neck around, making a loud popping sound before leaning her head back against the chair, closing her eyes.

Kissing Kelly's forehead Buffy heads to the kitchen to grab a water and juice before heading back out to the living room.

"Tired?" Buffy asks watching Kelly slowly sip her juice.

"Yeah, a little. I haven't been out for my morning run the last couple days and it's making me drag somewhat." Kelly leans her head back closing her eyes again. "You gonna come over here and sit down?" She asks without opening her eyes.

Buffy grins, quickly standing up and moving to sit across Kelly's lap, snuggling in with her head in the crook of Kelly's neck. Almost purring as Kelly runs her hand along her thigh. Just gently stroking back and forth.

"I like being here." Buffy states quietly, lightly stroking the skin of Kelly's neck. "I feel safe, warm and loved."

Setting the juice down on the floor beside her, Kelly reaches her other arm around Buffy, pulling her in tight against her body. "I do love you. Completely." Kelly lightly kisses the top of Buffy's head before setting her chin there, just hugging Buffy.

Buffy grins at the comfort being offered. "What are you doing tomorrow?"

Kelly thinks for a moment. "There's one other thing that I ordered that should be at the Mall tomorrow for me to pick up. Other than that I need to get some fresh produce to bake the pies. And of course, actually baking them. I pretty much got everything else."

"What kind of pies are you going to bake?" Buffy questions, lightly running her finger across Kelly's hardening nipple, smiling to herself, feeling the nipple ring.

"MMMM. Feels nice.. Ummm, probably apple, pumpkin, blueberry, cherry, peach. You got any favorites?" Kelly asks quietly humming to herself at Buffy's teasing.

"I like chocolate." Buffy states smiling at Kelly's quiet chuckle.

"How about I make a chocolate silk pie just for you. You can have some tomorrow when you get home from work." Kelly grins as Buffy starts to pluck lightly at her nipple with her fingertips.

"Hmmm. About that." Buffy grins to herself, as she reaches down pulling the t-shirt out from the brunette's pants so she can reach under it. Groaning at the warm skin under her hand, Buffy lifts her head slightly to kiss Kelly's neck. "I don't have to work tomorrow. I talked Wood into letting me take off." Lightly stroking her fingers over Kelly's stomach and ribs she smiles when Kelly gives a light laugh.

"So what did you have planned for tomorrow?" Kelly asks huskily as Buffy's hand works its way up her body, lightly running her fingers over the bottom of Kelly's breast as she grumbles something derogatory about bras.

"Sleeping in snuggled up against you. And going wherever you are. Hopefully finding something to pick up for you while we're out." Buffy quietly states in between leaving little butterfly kisses up and down the side of Kelly's neck.

Tilting her head back, Kelly groans lightly at the tender ministrations of the slayer. "You don't have to get me anything Buffy. I keep telling you that. And you are more than welcome to come with me tomorrow. I would love to sleep in with you snuggled up against me. We probably won't be able to do that much when your sister gets here."

Buffy growls at that. "I guess we'll have to be quiet. That sucks!"

Chuckling Kelly shakes her head at Buffy. "What time is her plane due in Friday?"

Buffy shrugs. "She has a flight that will be in around 6:00 pm, but she's on stand-by trying to get an earlier flight out. I guess it really depends on whether or not she can catch an earlier plane."

"So, are you going to move into the room with me? Or do you want to keep your own room, separate?" Kelly asks, running her hand up the inside of Buffy's thigh, not reaching the apex, just stopping an inch short, before bringing it back to her knees and back again.

"Would you mind sharing a room with me?" Buffy questions quietly, moaning at the warm hand running up and down her leg.

"I would love to share a room with you. We could move you over tomorrow and maybe clean it up and have it as a guest room, in case you ever get any surprise visitors." Kelly quietly suggests, running her hand further up to gently brush against Buffy's center before stroking back down.

"I guess that would be a good idea. That way poor Dawn doesn't have to worry about who's sleeping in her room." Buffy groans as Kelly puts a little pressure against her before stroking back down her thigh.

"Buffy?" Kelly questions huskily.

"Uh, huh." Buffy moans, her body humming at the gentle touches.

"Can I take you upstairs and make slow, gentle love to you?" Kelly asks in her ear before lightly kissing it and capturing it between her two lips to flick it with her tongue gently.

"Please" Buffy whispers.

Standing up, holding Buffy tightly in her arms, Kelly slowly makes her way upstairs to her bedroom. Gently laying Buffy down on the bed, Kelly leans down kissing Buffy gently on the mouth before pulling back to gently remove her shirt. Reaching down to unbutton the slayer's pants Kelly leans down and places a light kiss above her belly button. Lowering the zipper, Kelly skips down to her shoes, quickly untying the shoelaces and pulling the shoes and socks off before reaching up to slowly drag the pants down Buffy's well muscled legs, smiling at the scrap of panties the slayer is wearing. "Why did you even bother with the panties? There isn't enough of them there to do any good." Kelly states smiling at Buffy.

"Thought you might like them" Buffy huskily answers.

"Oh yeah." Kelly says looking hungrily at the slayer's body, still clad in bra and panties. Smiling to herself, Kelly quickly strips all her clothes off before going to the end of the bed, kneeling on the floor, leaning over and starting to kiss Buffy's feet, slowly working her way across every part of the foot till she reached the ankle before switching to the other leg, kissing and licking the foot over there. Slowly working her way up the slayer's body, she sucks lightly on the skin at the side of Buffy's knee. Before going any further she looks up into the dazed slayer's eyes. Reaching up to gently slide the useless panties off the slayer, Kelly smiles seeing the juices flowing freely. Climbing up the slayer's body, Kelly gently pulls her up to unhook the bra before laying Buffy back down, placing a sweet quick kiss on her lips. "Roll over." Kelly whispers quietly.

Groaning low Buffy rolls over onto her stomach and feels Kelly move back down the bed. "Why did I say you could make slow, gentle love to me?" Buffy asks huskily to the room in general.

Humming quietly Kelly whispers back "Because I haven't really had the chance to love each and every part of your body. And I really, really want too." Kelly works her way slowly up Buffy's calves, stopping to pay special attention to the tender skin behind the knee that makes Buffy hiss out in pleasure. Licking repeatedly over the area, Kelly watches the slayer squirm, spreading her thighs even more, lightly rocking her hips into the bed. 'Hmmm…note to self visit this area repeatedly.' Kelly thinks smiling slightly before continuing on her slow sensual journey.

Working her way up one thigh, stopping where the thigh and butt cheek meets, Kelly switches to the other leg and works her way up it. Stopping with her head even with the slayer's ass, Kelly inhales the smell of the slayer's essence that is literally flowing from her. "God, you smell so good, Buffy. I can't wait to taste you." Kelly growls before lightly running a fingertip through the slayer's folds, scooping up some of the juice that has escaped, making the slayer groan in disapproval at the teasing touch. Slowly licking the juices off her finger Kelly groans loudly. "Oh yessss… Taste so good."

Buffy growls low and deep "Kelly…" and then squirms as Kelly starts licking her way slowly over one butt cheek, before licking the other butt cheek. Pushing her butt up against the caresses Buffy groans slightly. First tensing slightly at what Kelly's doing, Buffy asks questioningly "Kelly?"

"Trust me. If you don't like I'll stop." Kelly whispers as she slowly spreads the slayer's butt cheeks, lightly running her tongue between them, gently just running up and down before reaching further down to lightly circle the slayer's rosebud. Not pressing in, yet. Just lightly circling, watching it clench and unclench as Buffy starts to relax into the delicate touch.

Lapping lightly at some of the fluid that has escaped the slayer's center, Kelly lets it slide off her tongue to moisten the slayer's tight hole a little before licking a little more firmly, circling with her tongue until Buffy starts to push against her tongue slightly, moaning quietly. Stiffening her tongue as much as possible, Kelly presses slightly in as Buffy pushes back against her.

"Oh God!" Buffy cries out at the pleasure just from the slight intrusion of Kelly's tongue in that virginal area.

Pulling out to gently circle around again, Kelly stiffens her tongue once again before pressing in a little more, making Buffy buck hard into her tongue, finally sliding in as far as her tongue can go Buffy comes from the pleasure, shaking and pushing harder against Kelly's mouth.

"Oh, my God." Buffy finally collapses on the bed, breathing heavily, feeling Kelly placing feather light kisses across her lower back.

Whispering quietly, "I'll be back in a minute." Kelly quickly gets up from the bed, heading to the bathroom to quickly brush and gargle before coming back into the bedroom. Lying down beside the slayer, pulling her onto her side to gently spoon her from behind.

Kissing the slayer's shoulder and neck as Buffy finally gets her breathing under control, gently running her hands over the slayer's stomach, that's still fluttering lightly.

"Wow." Buffy whispers quietly, unable to say anything else.

"Are you okay?" Kelly whispers back into Buffy's ear, placing light loving kisses on the outer shell before licking at that sensitive spot behind it.

Nodding her head enthusiastically she turns so she's facing Kelly, looking into the deep brown eyes of her lover. "More than okay." Buffy states, leaning in to gently kiss Kelly realizing why she disappeared for a few minutes.

"Any other kinky little things you want to show me?" Buffy smirks slightly. Watching the slow smile come across Kelly's face.

Leaning in to kiss Buffy lightly on the nose Kelly pulls back and states in a teasing tone "Maybe."

Gently pushing Buffy onto her back, Kelly slides down to where her head is resting on the slayer's chest, lightly running her fingertips across the other breast, down her ribs and across her stomach, just lightly touching. Smiling at the deep contented groan coming from the slayer. Lightly dancing her fingertips across Buffy's mound, tickling the hairs there before lightly running one finger over the outside of her folds, collecting the moisture, before bringing her juice laden finger back up to coat both of the slayer's nipples before leaning in and suckling on them gently, lapping at the wetness, making sure to clean all the essence off both nipples before, lightly running her hand down again, collecting more to repeat the gesture.

Moaning deep in her throat, Buffy arches her back, pushing her nipple into the warm recess of Kelly's mouth. As Kelly runs her hand back down, Buffy captures it, pressing it tightly against her sex. "Kelly, I want you…" Moaning as Kelly flicks her tongue strongly against the slayer's nipple before sucking it back into her mouth.

Pulling away slightly, blowing a warm breath across the hardened nub Kelly asks "You want what?" Before leaning back in and sucking on the other nipple. Just holding her hand tightly against the Slayer, not moving it. Waiting to see what she wants.

Buffy moans out "Stop."

Kelly pulls away quickly, not touching Buffy, waiting to see what's wrong.

Buffy frowns realizing that Kelly has pulled completely away from her and opens her eyes, not realizing that they've been closed almost the whole time Kelly was loving her breasts. "Why did you pull away?" Buffy asks confused.

"You told me to stop." Kelly stated worriedly. "Are you okay?"

Shaking her head, trying to dispel the fog that seems to have become a permanent fixture in her mind. "I didn't say stop, did I?" Buffy questions looking at Kelly.

Kelly nods watching Buffy try and come back to her senses. "Yes, you did."

Blinking her eyes as some of her brain cells start working, Buffy realizes she did say stop. And finally realizes why she said stop. "I didn't mean for you to pull away." Buffy quietly states, pulling Kelly back close to her body, running her hands across her back. "I just couldn't think with the attention you were paying to me…and I was trying to remember what I wanted you to do."

Chuckling lightly Kelly leans in kissing Buffy. "That's okay. I just didn't want to…"

Buffy places her finger lightly over Kelly's lips. "Thank you. But I want you to do all kinds of things to me. But, since I have gained some semblance of control over my mind and body, I want you." Buffy states searching Kelly's eyes.

Kissing the finger over her lips Kelly grins "You have me, Buffy."

Grumbling under her breathe about thick-headed Marines, Buffy growls "I mean I WANT you."

"Oh, you mean as in you want to jump my bones want me?" Kelly nods knowingly.

"Yes!" Buffy grins.

"No." Kelly grins before kissing her way down the Slayer's stomach, licking around the belly button, slowly working her way down to her weeping sex.

"KELLY!" Buffy yells in outrage. Then yells Kelly's name again a few minutes later after she sucks her clit into her mouth, with a steady firm sucking motion, bringing Buffy to the brink of coming before fluttering the tip of her tongue over that swollen muscle repeatedly, making the slayer lose control, jetting a stream of fluid into Kelly's mouth. Not letting up on the sucking and flickering, Kelly brings Buffy to two more clitoral orgasms, before slowly entering her with two fingers, stroking in and out at a steady pace.

"GOD!!" Buffy screams at the top of her lungs, coming from the triple pleasure of the stroking of her sweet spot, the sucking and flickering of her clit and the well lubricated finger that had gently inserted itself into her anus.

Feeling as if her body had shattered into a million pieces all Buffy could do was pant and shiver. Clenching and unclenching her muscles in pleasure. Finally, her muscles relaxed. Moaning as the fingers inside her slowly started to ease out, Buffy quickly clenched her inner muscles to keep them there, making Kelly grunt slightly at the pressure on her fingers.

"Relax and I'll leave them in, if that's what you want." Kelly pants, watching Buffy nod her head before laying her head on Buffy's abdomen lightly licking at the perspiration that was coating the body of the slayer before pushing her fingers gently back inside the slayer, as deeply as they would reach. Glancing back up quickly Kelly asks "Do you want me to remove the other finger?" Grinning at the slayer shaking her head no, Kelly wiggles said finger around slightly, making the slayer rotate her hips, pushing down slightly.

Lying there, with her head on Buffy's stomach for what must have been 15 minutes Kelly smiles as she still feels the aftershocks working through Buffy's body. Gently wiggling the finger inside the slayer's anus she feels Buffy tighten up again as another small orgasm hits her, gently coating the other hand in her juices. Smiling to herself Kelly twists her fingers slightly, hooking them to rub against the slayer's g-spot, light rubbing in a circle Kelly just keeps rubbing gently and slowly, feeling the slayer's body slowly tense until it felt like a bow string about ready to let loose, then she wiggled the other finger making Buffy grunt as she feels her body release.

Clenching down once again on the brunette's fingers to keep them from wiggling. Buffy gets her breath back after a few moments gently easing her inner muscles. "I don't think I can take any more." She whispers as her body shakes slightly.

"Do you want me to pull out?" Kelly whispers looking up at her lover's face. Buffy shakes her head no making Kelly laugh lightly "Just to let you know, it's tempting to keep playing like this. If you can't take any more you might want to let me to pull out." Kelly states quietly before nuzzling her face back into the velvety skin of the slayer's abdomen, lightly kissing and licking. Mentally trying not to stroke in and out or wiggle her fingers inside the slayer.

Looking back up Kelly smiles as she notices that Buffy seems to have control again glancing over at the clock quickly Kelly grins, shifting her head back down, she latches back onto the slayers clit and strokes in and out quickly, wiggling the finger inside her tight hole making Buffy come again, yelling Kelly's name hoarsely. Kelly gently eases the finger out of her anus, knowing for the first time Buffy has probably had more than enough there, no matter what she says. Even knowing with slayer healing, she should be fine.

Shaking repeatedly, literally feeling small orgasms rocketing through her body Buffy inhales sharply at the pleasure that is riding that borderline of pain. 'God it feels so good.' Buffy thinks to herself moaning in displeasure as Kelly pulls the finger out, but not being able to form words to tell her she wants it back in. 'Who knew the pleasure I would receive from that. I want more.' Buffy thinks before finally falling exhaustedly asleep.

Kelly noticed the change in the breathing glances up noticing that Buffy has fallen asleep. Smiling at the well satisfied smile that was gracing the slayer's face even in sleep, Kelly gently eases her fingers out of the slayer before looking at the bed again, shaking her head. 'I have never had someone…' Stopping that train of thought Kelly eases off the bed to grab some towels to lay down over the wet spot before gently pulling the covers over the slayer, making her warm and comfortable before taking her own aching body into the bathroom to run cold water over it, trying to calm down. After roughly twenty minutes, Kelly's body still hasn't calmed and she looks up towards the ceiling begging 'Please let me calm down. Trying to take care of it myself just makes me want more, so, come on, please!'

Staying under the spray for another thirty minutes, Kelly finally feels the edge wearing off and her body calming down. Stepping out of the shower, she quickly dries her body off before walking back into her room smiling down at the lightly snoring slayer before dropping down into a lotus position to meditate and center herself.

Realizing that she feels somebody's eyes on her, Kelly slowly opens one eyelid and smiles to see Buffy looking at her. Inhaling deeply before opening both eyes and slowly getting up Kelly looks at Buffy smiling. Glancing over at the clock, she isn't that surprised to see that it's 9:00 o'clock. Sitting down beside the slayer, lightly brushing the hair out of her face Kelly smiles softly "Good morning. How are you feeling?"

"Do you meditate often?" Buffy asks, at the same time. Then smiles "Wonderful morning. I feel great."

Shaking her head Kelly leans down brushing her lips across Buffy's forehead. "I don't have to meditate or center myself often. Just if I find myself getting angry or losing control, or some other type of extreme hormonal issue."

Buffy's frowns wondering why Kelly was meditating this morning before it hits her between the eyes like a baseball bat. "My, God. You were probably strung so tight last night…I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to fall asleep…Please forgive me…I am the shittiest girlfriend ever…If I had done that to a guy, he would probably have went ahead and…."

Finally hearing enough Kelly shakes her head before quickly leaning in kissing Buffy deeply, sliding her tongue into Buffy's mouth that's still trying to talk. As Buffy starts kissing her back Kelly moans deep in her throat, feeling the heat building back up in her body quickly, not that it ever completely left.

Pulling away, breathing heavily, Kelly lays down on the bed and throws an arm across her eyes, before saying anything. "Nothing to be sorry over Buffy. And you definitely are not a shitty girlfriend. You're the best girlfriend ever. And I love you completely."

Watching her lover trying to get control of her hormones Buffy shakes her head. "What do you want?" Buffy asks quietly, slowly running her hand across Kelly's chest tweaking one nipple before heading over to tug gently on the nipple ring on her other nipple. Smiling as Kelly grunts in appreciation.

"Feels good." Kelly states quietly. Shaking her head she answers Buffy's question "Whatever you want to do."

Deciding to rephrase the question Buffy leans in kissing Kelly's right nipple before biting it almost roughly before pulling back "What do you need?"

Inhaling deeply Kelly looks at Buffy with eyes so filled with passion, it makes Buffy close her eyes as she feels the juices starting to trickle out of her own body in response.

"What I need is for you to strap the biggest fucking dildo you can find on and ride me for three hours straight." Kelly hoarsely states, her body starting to shake with want and need. "But I'll take whatever you want to give me." She growls before pulling Buffy over top of her, kissing her roughly and deeply, invading the slayers mouth, taking pleasure from her.

Yanking her mouth away from Buffy, Kelly apologizes "God, I'm so sorry, I didn't mean…"

Buffy shuts Kelly up by kissing her even rougher, grinding their mouths together, tongues battling against each other as she slides her thigh between Kelly's, pressing hard against Kelly's clit, rocking back and forth quickly and roughly. Groaning at the wetness flowing from Kelly, knowing she hasn't even come yet.

Pulling out of the kiss Buffy looks at Kelly rocking against her faster and harder "Were you in pain?" She questions before leaning down biting her shoulder roughly, making Kelly buck harder into her, crying out her name as an orgasm rockets through her. Licking the wound she caused on Kelly shoulder, vaguely realizing she actually broke the skin this time, Buffy works her way down Kelly's body, roughly biting all the way down, hearing Kelly's pleas, her begging, her screaming for more.

"Did it hurt you, needing to be touched?" Buffy growls nipping roughly at Kelly abdomen.

"Yes!" Kelly grunts out loudly.

"Why didn't you help yourself?" Buffy growls deeper nipping at Kelly's hip and thigh.

"Would…have…made…worse!" Kelly pants out, bucking her hips, looking for something to buck against.

"Do you want me to fuck you?" Buffy hoarsely asks as she brings herself between Kelly's thighs, biting and sucking on the tender flesh of her inner thighs. "Because I want to fuck you long and hard, is that what you want?" A part of Buffy is dumbfounded at what she is doing. Another part, the slayer part is cheering her on. This is hers. Mark it, fuck it, make it her own.

A small part of Kelly's brain, a very small part is in awe of the slayer's attitude, her jumping into this part of Kelly that needs this so much. Realizing they both have the violence in them. They both need something other than gentle love making sometimes and Kelly's psyche wants to howl at the moon. Her equal. Her mate Her partner. Someone that will do what needs to be done to her.

"GOD. YES. FUCK. ME!" Kelly screams at the top of her lungs, rocking her body, grasping the sheets roughly on either side of her, needing to be fucked. "PLEASE!!!!" She groans out loudly and then sighs as she feels the slayers hand slide into her effortlessly and start a fast hard rhythm.

"God Kelly! You are so wet!" Buffy pants as she pumps her fist in and out of Kelly, almost bring it all the way out, feeling that ring of muscle around her hand before shoving back in.

Kelly can't speak, Buffy is pounding in her at a furious pace and Kelly is rocking back hard feeling the mother of all orgasms working its way through her body. Sweating and grunting Kelly shoves back harder and faster at Buffy, making her meet the rhythm. Feeling the orgasm coiling in her body Kelly arches up hard as it shoots through her, slamming into the slayer, making the slayer climax.

Buffy stops stunned feeling her whole body tingling in pleasure and the liquid flowing from her body.

"Don't….fuck'n….stop…." Kelly pants, rocking against the slayer's fist, still feeling more in her needing to get out.

Buffy's eyes widen and she quickly goes back to pounding Kelly as she actually feels Kelly's next orgasm coiling in her body. Picking up the pace Buffy readies herself for the next backlash, planning on pounding Kelly into next week if she needs to. Buffy quickly reaches down with her other hand trying to get to Kelly's clit between Kelly's hard fast bucking. Shaking her head, Buffy gives up on that idea, just running that hand under Kelly's leg to grasp her butt cheek while still pounding away.

Grinding herself down hard on Buffy's hand Kelly's inner walls clench down hard on Buffy's fist so that even with slayer strength Buffy can't move it, it stops it dead as a huge blast escapes Kelly's body and just as it hits her, Buffy realizes it's a magic blast. The sexual energy Kelly had been building up in her needing release. And releasing right into Buffy.

Both of them collapse, passing out from the pleasure/pain and magic shooting through their bodies.

Slowly coming back to consciousness Buffy realizes her hand is still buried deep inside Kelly. Groaning as she realizes Kelly's body is still clenching and unclenching, then she realizes she's literally laying in a puddle in the bed and her head is on Kelly's thigh. Slowly lifting her head, Buffy looks up at Kelly seeing that she's still passed out. As Kelly's body unclenches, Buffy starts to ease her hand out, but Kelly's body locks down tight on it again as another weak blast comes from Kelly. As Buffy lays there, easing her hand back inch by inch over the next thirty minutes, as Kelly's body keeps releasing smaller and smaller increments of magic Buffy starts to worry that Kelly hasn't woken up yet. Finally able to pull her hand completely free, she quickly climbs up beside her, pushing the sweat soaked hair off Kelly's face, gently calling her name over and over again.

Kelly feels like she is swimming through honey as she tries to get back to that sweet worried voice of her lover. Finally gaining consciousness she slowly opens her eyes, blinking away the slight haze that tries to hang on. "Wha-".

Not able to get the word out Kelly shakes her head, swallowing repeatedly, trying to lubricate her throat.

"Do you need something to drink?" Buffy asks her worriedly.

Nodding her head Kelly looking at Buffy, Kelly thinks Thank you. at Buffy.

"Your welcome, I'll go get you some." Buffy hops off the bed getting ready to head out the door when she stops, realizing Kelly didn't say it out loud. Turning to quickly look at Kelly she sees a surprised look on her face.

Closing her eyes Kelly thinks at Buffy. Can I have juice?

Realizing Kelly is seeing what she can 'hear' Buffy inhales deeply thinking back at Kelly. Orange juice, apple juice or would you rather have Gatorade?

Eyes popping open Kelly looks at Buffy before breaking into a huge smile. Whatever you want to bring me. We'll talk about this mind meld when I can actually speak.

Good. Got me slightly worried. Buffy thinks back before running downstairs to get orange juice and Gatorade for Kelly.

Running back upstairs with three bottles of Gatorade and a huge glass of orange juice, Buffy walks into the room, seeing Kelly has scooted up and is resting her back against the headboard, completely naked, Buffy inhales feeling the desire returning to her body before mentally smacking herself.

Quickly handing the glass of orange juice to Kelly, Buffy watches her literally drain it down. Taking the glass back from her, Buffy hands her a bottle of Gatorade as she sets the glass down on the end table before climbing into bed beside Kelly, crossing her legs facing her. Starting to grin as Kelly drains the bottle of Gatorade also. Reaching back for another bottle of Gatorade, Buffy giggles, handing it to Kelly and then actually laughs at the frowning look she gets from Kelly for giggling.

"Come on, you're cute." Buffy needles Kelly as Kelly finally is able to just sip the second bottle.

"Cute, my ass." Kelly is finally able to croak out.

Buffy nods her head in agreement. "That, too."

Rolling her eyes at the slayer Kelly asks. "Are you okay? You know, with the magic blasts?"

Buffy nods her head. "Yeah, as a matter of fact I'm feeling better than okay, I feel all kinds of energetic. What's going on?"

Wiping her hand across her face Kelly looks seriously at Buffy. "I don't know if you're going to like this."

"Just tell me Kelly. Then I'll decide whether I like it or not." Buffy states, shifting her body so she's touching Kelly and her back is resting against the headboard beside her.

Slowly Kelly explains how the coven warned her if she ever found her 'heart', what some people consider their soul mate, and said 'heart' was of mystical origin, not magical, it wouldn't work if they were both witches, but some other kind of mystical being, that it was possible that when they both opened themselves to each other that they would exchange magic/powers. Both becoming more than what they were before. Stronger, more powerful. Possibly invincible given enough time and enough 'exchanges'.

Looking with worry in her eyes at Buffy, Kelly states quietly "I never really worried about it or even thought about it after they told me. The likelihood of finding my heart was like one in a billion then that person being of mystical origin? Impossible." Swallowing hard Kelly reaches over, lightly grasping Buffy's hand. "You are my heart. I'm sorry if…" Trailing off looking down at her hand clasping the slayer's.

"If you want me to leave, I'll leave." Kelly quietly states.

Buffy thinks long and hard, a few of the high points going repeatedly through her brain – soul mate – heart – stronger – invincible. After a few moments she could actually feel Kelly withdrawing from her mentally. Realizing what Kelly said she turns and looks at her quickly.

"No. No you aren't leaving." Shaking her head Buffy looks long and hard at Kelly. "When you said exchanging powers, do you mean I will become magical and you will become the slayer?" Buffy asks almost worriedly.

Shaking her head Kelly closes her eyes, thinking to herself that she didn't do a good job of explaining herself.

Buffy pipes up "You did a fine job explaining yourself. I understand what you were saying. I'm just looking for more details."

"It's not that we are switching powers, we're exchanging, sharing may be a better word. I'll keep my powers, you'll keep your powers but we are…uggh! How do I say this?" Kelly groans in frustration.

"It's kind of like we're borrowing each others powers?" Buffy asks. "But on a more permanent basis without the other person losing any of their powers."

Nodding her head in excitement Kelly smiles big "Exactly. And it will be almost like we are amplifying for each other so that our own powers will grow stronger, even though with mine I don't think they will get much stronger. The coven was convinced I had opened myself up as far as I could. The warning was more for whoever was my heart. I guess. Or maybe they don't know how powerful a person can become." Shrugging her shoulders Kelly grins.

Buffy starts grinning "So, my fucking you hard with my slayer strength made you blast me with your power?"

"Yeah, and your fucking me with your slayer strength gave me some of your strength/powers." Kelly grins then frowns slightly looking down at her side, ripping the bandage off to look and starts laughing.

"What? What's wrong?" Buffy asks as Kelly is laughing, not able to see her side.

"On a normal person, the cut I had on my side would be what, scabbed over by now, right?"

Buffy nods her head and then as Kelly shifts so Buffy can see her ribs Buffy's eyes widen. The cut is completely healed, no showing of a scar or pink tissue or anything. Just soft, blemish free skin. Lightly reaching out too touch it Buffy starts grinning ear from ear.

"With your slayer healing, how long would that have taken to heal?" Kelly asks wonderingly.

"To heal completely maybe a couple hours." Buffy stops to think about when they had exchanged powers and then looks at the clock and smiles, nodding her head. "What were you so worried about, Kelly? This is great. We love each other, we want to be together, we help each other, heal each other? I'm not seeing the bad in this happening at all." Buffy states smiling before kissing Kelly hard on the lips.

"Well, there's the mind thing we'll actually be able to talk into each others mind very easily. The two parts wanting to be one. We both already have walls up in our minds with what we are. That will help us out, so that way we shouldn't accidentally 'overhear' each other, unless we lower the walls." Kelly states nodding her head to herself. That's what happened earlier, I hadn't put my wall back up from when I dropped it.

"How far apart can we be before it won't work?" Buffy asks.

"I don't know. We'll have to try it out and see." Kelly smiles. "Come on, let's shower, I want to do some tests, you with me?" Kelly asks with a huge taunting grin on her face, daring Buffy.

"You know it!!" Buffy states excitedly.

"Why didn't we walk?" Buffy asks as Kelly pulls into the College campus' track area.

"Because we still need to pick up stuff at the grocery store and I don't want to have to lug it all over the place, even if I become Superwoman with your powers." Kelly explains.

"Makes sense." Buffy nods.

They both walk together out onto the track. Both of them stretching and warming up. About 20 minutes later they look at each other, Kelly looks down at her watch, pressing a couple buttons, looks back up to Buffy with her hand on one of the buttons on her wrist and yells "Go!" pressing the button at the same time.

They both take off running like the hounds of hell are after them, running around the track at blurring speeds. They make four quick laps of the track, stopping where they started and Kelly quickly presses the button on her watch, her eyes widening. Neither one of them are breathing heavily and they just ran one mile in twenty-five seconds.

Buffy looks at her curiously.

"Buffy, do you ever remember running that fast before?"

Buffy shakes her head realizing that normally she would be breathing hard after running full out for a mile. Not necessarily out of breath, but she would be panting a little bit. "How quickly did we do that mile?"

Kelly shows her watch to Buffy and Buffy widens her eyes in disbelief.

Shaking her head Kelly smiles "Come on, let's try the long jump."

Kelly actually was able to jump quite a bit farther than Buffy, which Buffy bitched about long legs.

Looking realizing they had jumped way past what the college marked they looked at each other in surprise.

"Okay, so obviously both of us have gone well beyond the norm for physical powers, right?" Kelly asks Buffy.

"Obviously." Buffy states nodding her head.

Sitting down in the middle of the field, Kelly motions for Buffy to sit in front of her. "I want you to concentrate, look at me and imagine me floating in the air a foot above the ground. Take your time, relax and slowly think about lifting …" Kelly trails off as she is lifted off the ground. Laughing loudly.

Buffy grins ear to ear. "Can I do this to Willow and Tara and freak them out?" She asks excitedly.

"Only if I get to physically pick both of them up at the same time." Kelly laughs, almost as excited as Buffy.

Buffy's eyes open and she looks at Kelly leering. "So, this means the more we…" She stops and wiggles her eyebrows before continuing. "The stronger we get? And this means I won't have to hold back at all?"

"Nope, but remember, I'm gonna be stronger, now also!" Kelly leers back at Buffy. Stopping and creasing her brows thinking for a moment Kelly tries to remember something else the coven said. Not being able to remember, she quickly grabs her phone, at Buffy's questioning glance she raises one finger.

"Hello, Saron? This is Kelly Maclay…. Yes, it's wonderful to hear your voice also. Is Wilhimina there?… Yes I need to speak with her…. Thank you…" Smiling at Buffy and quickly leaning in to give her a brief kiss Kelly pulls back as Wilhimina comes on the phone.

"Good afternoon, Wilhimina… Yes, it's a lovely day…. No. No problems with me… I do have a question, however. Do you remember when you were talking to me about meeting my heart?… Yes, you said something that just isn't coming to me… Yes, Yes I remember that part…. Yes, that one too…Really?… Are you positive?… No way, huh?… I'll be damned… No, I don't mean that literally… Yes, I'm sorry…. Yes I was just wondering…It was good to hear from you, too…Yes, when I have a chance I will be by to visit… Send my love to the rest of the coven…No, I still haven't changed my mind about leading the coven…I appreciate it but…no, no. That's okay…Goodbye." Hanging up with a slightly stunned look on her face Kelly looks at Buffy.

"What is it?" Buffy asks.

Flopping onto her back and looking up at the sky, Kelly just shakes her head in disbelief.

Literally climbing on top of Kelly, Buffy clasps Kelly's face between her two hands looking down into her eyes "What. Is. It?"

"Magic needs to be governed, people need to be careful because it can become addictive, harmful. You know this, right?" Kelly asks looking into Buffy's eyes. Seeing Buffy nod Kelly smiles slightly. "Well, in regards to us? Throw all that shit out the window. For some unfathomable reason it becomes pure. We can't become addicted and we will be able to balance each other completely. For some reason we won't be able to use magic for evil, it, it…" Shrugging slightly Kelly just states "We're the good guys, incorruptible and able to leap buildings in a single bound!!" Kelly laughing adds the last bit.

"You shouldn't laugh." Buffy states looking at Kelly seriously. "As strong as we already are, we very well could leap a building in a single bound."

Stopping and looking at the slayer in surprise, Kelly realizes she's right. It is an actual possibility. "You realize that this was meant to be. For some reason we were meant to find each other. That's why we are so drawn to each other. Not just love, this is deeper, stronger." Kelly states seriously.

"We are meant for each other, heart, mind, body and soul." Buffy nods her head. "Umm… Kelly. Do you think we should…"

"Not tell anybody right now?" Kelly finishes what Buffy is trying to ask.

Nodding her head Buffy looks at Kelly "It might really freak them out. I mean, me with a woman is freak worthy enough, we tell them this? They might spontaneously combust." Buffy starts laughing "I can hear Giles now 'Dear Lord!' and cleaning his glasses until they disappear. Then he'll be insisting to see if there's some prophesy or another about this! No no no!!"

"You have a point. We'll keep quiet about this for right now. I'll talk again to the coven to see if they have any more information" Kelly nods her head. "Come on, we need to do some shopping, so get your lazy ass off me, girlfriend."

Growling at Kelly, Buffy leans in kissing her quick before rolling off her and hopping up, yelling race ya' as she runs for the vehicle before Kelly even has a chance to stand up. Laughing the whole way.

Buffy watches as Kelly pulls out the last of the pies. Eating the last piece of pizza they had ordered for a late lunch she points it at the chocolate silk pie "When can I have some of that?" She smiles hopefully at Kelly.

Shaking her head at Buffy Kelly smiles. "Anytime you want a piece, you can have it." And laughs as Buffy jumps up quickly grabbing knife plate and fork.

Sitting back down with a fourth of the pie on her plate Kelly shakes her head at Buffy and sits down to watch.

Buffy looks to the rolls that are rising on the oven. "How many rolls are you going to make?"

Kelly raises an eyebrow at her lover "Why?"

"Well…I mean I probably need to taste test them to make sure they're okay. And I'll need to test each batch you make…" Buffy grins winningly at Kelly.

Lowering and banging her head lightly against the island Kelly grumbles "I love you, but you're gonna drive me nuts." Looking back up at Buffy she asks seriously "Everything I make or bake for somewhere else I'm gonna need to fix an extra batch just for you, aren't I?"

Buffy grins nodding "That would work. It's all your fault. I mean if you weren't such a good cook, I would disappear and get something to eat out!" Buffy stops and frowns slightly looking down at her waist. "However I have already noticed my pants are a little snugger than they used to be."

"Good. You're too skinny." Kelly grins moving around to lift Buffy up and sliding under her to sit her on her lap. Wrapping her arms tight around Buffy's mid section she nuzzles her neck stating "I like having something to nuzzle and grab a hold of. I think you should gain at least ten pounds. With your metabolism, you burn off a lot of calories, and we'll both probably be burning a lot more calories now."

Buffy grins as she finishes eating her pie. Licking the crumbs off her lips she glances over at the counter at the rest of the pie. "You know, that was very, very good. Maybe even excellent, but I might need some more to decide for sure."

Shaking her head Kelly mumbles into Buffy's neck "I made it for you. You can eat the whole thing right now, if you want to. But if you end up with a stomach ache I don't want to hear it."

Buffy giggles, deciding to wait on another piece of pie. Turning so she's sitting sideways on Kelly's lap she wraps her arms around her neck kissing her lightly. "Thank you. It was delicious." Kissing her again before lightly running her tongue across her jaw to her ear and sucking lightly on Kelly's ear lobe Buffy whispers lightly "What did you get at the mall, baby?"

Moaning as the slayer sucks on her ear lobe Kelly chuckles at Buffy's attempt to wheedle out of her what she bought. "Not gonna work, slayer."

"I was thinking about that conversation we had this morning." Buffy pulled slightly away to look in Kelly's eyes.

Raising her eyebrows Kelly states "Need to be a little more specific. We had quite a few conversations this morning."

Rolling her eyes Buffy growls "The one first thing this morning, about you wanting to be…you know." As Buffy blushes slightly.

Kelly thinks for a moment before smiling "You really need to be able to say these things Buffy. But I know it might take a while before you're comfortable. The fact I wanted you to fuck me with the biggest dildo you could find?" At Buffy's nod Kelly grins. "So what were you thinking about in regards to that statement?"

Looking down at her lap, blushing even harder Buffy quietly whispers "I know where there's one of those type stores in Sunnydale."

Raising her eyes in surprise Kelly lifts Buffy's chin up to look her in the eyes. "Are you saying you would consider using one?"

Buffy nods before relaxing slightly and smiling "I would consider using one and having one used on me, maybe not a huge one, but…" Shrugging her shoulders "Everything you have done to me or let me do I have…" Blowing a quick breath up into her hair Buffy blushes a deep red before looking back down again in embarrassment.

Leaning in Kelly whispers in her ear "Everything you have done or been done to you, you have enjoyed, loved, wanted to do again? You're realizing there are so many things that you haven't tried that you are willing to open yourself completely and go with the flow? You enjoy screaming your head off as you climax harder than you ever thought possible?"

"Oh yeah." Buffy moans as Kelly's rough voice slides through her body making her ache.

Lifting Buffy off her lap, Kelly grabs her hand pulling her out to the vehicle. "Point me in the right direction."

Buffy shakes her head to get rid of the sex induced haze. "Point you where?"

"The Adult novelty store. Tell me where it is." Kelly pulls out of the driveway heading into Sunnydale.

Blushing profusely Buffy stutters out "I d-don't know if I c-could go in some place like that."

Quickly pulling to the side of the road, Kelly turns to look at Buffy. "If you aren't comfortable, we don't have to go. I just thought…"

Shaking her head quickly at Kelly "No, I'm very interested in trying…I'm just embarrassed at actually going into the store." Buffy clarifies.

"If you want, you can show me where the store is located and I would be willing to go by myself at a later time." Kelly calmly states.

Buffy looks at her and grins "But then that means you won't have any toys for us to play with later, right?" At Kelly's nod Buffy thinks for a minute. "How about I stay in the vehicle and you can go in?"

"I can do that. The only thing is, we won't have had time to discuss what you would like to try before I go in so that I can get things you would be interested in." Kelly points out.

Buffy smiles "I trust you." Grinning hugely "You haven't steered me wrong yet!"

Laughing Kelly looks before pulling back out onto the road. Buffy showing her where to go, Kelly pulls up outside the store. "I might be a little while, do you want to take a spin around?"

Buffy's eyes get real big "No, me and vehicles do not get along." Shaking her head quickly. "I'll just stay in here and listen to some of your CD's."

Kissing Buffy quickly, Kelly heads into the store laughing as she hears Aerosmith come rocking through the speakers of the Hummer.

Quickly glancing around the store Kelly sees there's just the clerk at the checkout desk there. Walking up to the woman Kelly tilts her head slightly and smiles.

The woman watches the tall brunette walk into the store and come up to the desk smiling. Nodding her head the woman asks "May I help you?"

Kelly grins "Are you the owner or just work here?"

"Actually, I own the store, why is there a problem?"

"No, no problem. I'm just going to probably going to give you the sell of your lifetime." Looking at the small shopping basket beside the desk Kelly shakes her head "That isn't going to be big enough. Do you have a cart?"

The woman's eyes widen slightly and nods, "I have my stocking cart in the back, I can get it."

"Please. Thanks." Kelly grins and starts along one wall, picking out item after item, nipple clamps, clit clamps, flavored lubes, anal lube, warming lubes…Kelly stops for a moment seeing a lube that claims to actually be more of a pain inducer. Reading what little information that's on it, the woman comes back with the cart, switching what items Kelly has already collected onto it.

Looking up at the woman Kelly asks "Do you have any other information on this? It's kind of vague."

The woman looks at the lube and her eyes widen slightly "Ummm, that's more for our 'different' clientele. Most normal people won't want to use that."

Kelly grins slightly at the woman "You're a werewolf, right?" At the woman's shocked look on her face Kelly shakes her head "Don't worry, I won't tell. Do you lock yourself up those three nights or have you worked on meditations and herbs to help keep you from changing?"

The woman just looks at her for a moment worriedly. "I, I have been working on meditations, but I still lock myself up. How did you know?"

Pulling a card out of wallet, Kelly quickly scribbles her name along with the name and number of someone else. Handing the card to the woman Kelly states "Call this number, ask for Sherri and tell them that Kelly suggested you call. They'll help you. It might take three months or possibly longer, but they can help you get the wolf under control."

The woman looks in surprise at Kelly then smiles slightly, her instincts telling her this woman is on the up and up. "Thank you."

"No problem, now tell me about this lube. My partner and I can both handle a lot of pain…" Kelly trails off smiling slightly.

The woman shakes her head and explains the properties of the lube and what it does, it's a special lube she makes herself for the creatures of the night.

Nodding her head Kelly throws one on the cart. "We'll try it. Now, let's keep on a trucking." Kelly throws different kinds of dildo's on the cart, vibrating, large, small, thick, thin. Eyes widening when she sees this monster dildo that has to be at least 12" long and maybe four inches wide. Looking at the werewolf Kelly asks "Do you have a harness that will fit that?"

The woman starts laughing slightly "You weren't kidding when you said you were going to make the sale of my life, where you? Yeah, I think I have one in back, most people just look at it and laugh. They think of it as more a gag gift than anything. Let me run back there and check."

"Wait a minute, do you have anything else back there that you don't have out here?" Kelly asks before letting the woman get away.

The woman hesitates a moment looking appraisingly at the tall woman standing in front of her. "Yeah, there's a few different things back there, come on. It's slow right now anyway with Christmas almost here. Everybody's already bought their stocking stuffers." The woman laughs slightly.

Kelly's eyes widen, seeing a few of the items. Grinning madly, she quickly grabs a real riding crop, not the cheap imitation one they had out in the other part of the store. Flicking it quickly against her calf Kelly nods in appreciation. Looking around a few other things catch her attention that she's grabs up quickly while Lana, the owner of the store, digs out the harness for the gigantic dildo that Kelly wants to buy.

Looking over at Kelly, Lana shakes her head realizing Kelly is grabbing all the 'good' items. Stuff that's meant to last. Meant to actually be used and leaving the toys portion alone. "You know what you're buying, don't you?"

Looking up quickly Kelly grins "You're talking to a girl that was raised on a farm with animals and also been in the Marines for almost twenty years, I can tell the good stuff from the cheap commercial stuff. If I'm going to spend my money on it, I'm going to buy something that will hold up."

Nodding her head in appreciation Lana notices that Kelly has finished in here and they both walk out to the main part of the store, quickly adding the additional items to the cart.

Kelly almost passes the novelty items, but one of the coffee cups catches her attention and she grins as she quickly grabs it and puts it on the cart.

Lana watches Kelly finish the sweep around the store occasionally throwing something else onto the pile before heading up to the check out desk.

"If you want to start running these items through, I'm going to walk around again and make sure I didn't miss anything, okay?" Kelly smiles looking at the pile of goodies in her cart.

"Sure thing." Lana laughs as she starts ringing the items up, deciding to give this woman a decent discount, and even with that she'll have probably spent a couple thousand dollars. "Hey, I noticed you didn't pick up any movies."

"Nah, don't need the stimulation of watching those. We don't have any trouble getting in the mood." Kelly states starting to laugh.

"How many harness' did I put in there, not counting the special made one?" Kelly asks standing in front of the harness'.

"Hmm… Looks like you got two leather ones and two PVC's."

"You don't have any that are made better than these, do you?" Kelly questions.

Lana shakes her head, "Unfortunately that's the only distributor I have for those. I heard that another company was trying to break onto the market with better made ones, but I don't think they made it."

Nodding her head, Kelly quickly grabs four more of each. Turning she notices the double-dongs and looks at them for a moment. Grabbing one of each different size, Kelly brings them up to the counter, adding them to the pile.

"Would I be wrong in thinking you have a girlfriend?" Lana questions laughingly. "Or a very kinky boyfriend that likes it up the ass."

"Nope, girlfriend. Introducing her to the pleasures of the flesh. Very innocent in that way." Grinning wickedly Kelly states "I'm changing that quickly."

The woman's eyes get big as she looks from Kelly down to all the items she's bought. "Aren't you afraid you're going to scare her off with all this? I mean, if she's new to these type of things…"

"Nah, she's cool. I tried to get her to come in here, but she's too embarrassed." Kelly states shaking her head thinking of Buffy.

Lana looks out the window, just able to see a shape in the Hummer that Kelly had got out of. "Why don't you tell her that the owner of the store is the only one in here and see if she wants to come in?"

Smiling slightly Kelly shrugs, "Won't hurt to ask, huh?" As she pops out quickly to the side of the Hummer.

Lana smiles as she watches the window roll down as Kelly talks to her girlfriend. Lana catches a glimpse of long blonde hair, but Kelly's body is blocking the other woman. Shaking her head she turns back to continue ringing up the sale. 'Goodness with this sale I can close the rest of the weekend and not even think about the store. I might just do that!'

Glancing up quickly Lana sees a petite little blonde woman walk in quickly followed by Kelly. Eyes widening she looks at the items Kelly has bought and back to the blonde. "Mmmm, Kelly? I think you really might want to re-think some of these things. It looks like you might really hurt her with some of this stuff."

Buffy blushes profusely and turns to look at Kelly seeing the huge smile on her lover's face, she smacks her across the abdomen, hard making Kelly grunt slightly.

"What all are you buying?" Buffy growls lowly, making Lana glance up quickly.

"Buffy, I'd like for you to meet Lana. Lana, this is my girlfriend Buffy." Kelly introduces them, rubbing her abdomen absentmindedly.

Buffy's eyes widen slightly as she looks at Lana before turning back to Kelly. "I didn't know there was a werewolf in Sunnydale. How long have you lived here?" Buffy asks coming up to shake her hand.

Lana's eyes widen wondering how these two women know about her. Shaking her head and shrugging to herself she shakes Buffy's hand feeling the power seeping through and realizing this little blonde isn't what she seems. "I've lived here for about six years."

Nodding her head Buffy states "Cool. Had a friend in high school that was a werewolf. Went to Tibet to study with the monks to get his wolf under control. Nice, quiet, stoic type of guy." Buffy grins before looking at the pile of stuff on the counter and turning to look at Kelly.

"You're buying all this aren't you?" Buffy asks accusingly.

Shrugging her shoulders Kelly looks at Buffy with an innocent expression on her face "But, honey! You might like it if you try it!" Making Buffy laugh at her lover.

Walking over to Kelly, Buffy wraps her arms around her, squeezing tightly before lifting her up and spinning her around quickly before setting her back down. "I love you." Buffy states before pulling Kelly down into a quick hard kiss.

Lana's eyes widen as she watches Buffy literally pick up the other woman and spin her around. 'These two are definitely not your ordinary humans.'

"So what all are you buying" Buffy asks as she walks around the store, picking up random items before stopping in front of the nipple clamps picking up one set turning them over inquisitively before looking at Kelly with a huge grin on her face.

"Yes, I bought the nipple clamps." Kelly sighs loudly at her breast fetish girlfriend.

Shrugging her shoulder Buffy grins and states "Can't help it. They call out to me." Before moving further down looking at other items. Coming across the huge dildo, Buffy's eyes get wide, quickly picking it up and looking at it she glances down at herself trying to imagine wearing the damn thing before shaking her head and putting it back up. She hears a snort of laughter coming from Kelly before turning to her. "Did you?" At Kelly's nod Buffy closes her eyes.

"I'll be hung like a fucking horse with that thing, Kelly. Come on, look at me." Buffy waves her hands towards her own body. "That thing is almost as big as me!"

Lana had finished ringing up everything and is enjoying just watching the two women interact. In a weird sort of way they fit.

"But, Buffy!" Kelly lightly whines "You can handle it, you know you can!"

"That's not the issue! I'll look ridiculous wearing that thing!" Buffy pouts slightly.

Closing the distance between them in what could only be considered a prowl Kelly leans down nipping at the bottom lip poking out "But we are the only ones that will see it. So who cares if it might look ridiculous. Anyway, I'll probably only see it briefly before you are pounding it inside me repeatedly. Making me come over and over again. Just imagine it Buffy, buried to the hilt inside me, fucking me hard, making me scream your name over and over again until I can't speak anymore. Then fucking me again? Tell me that doesn't make you wet just thinking about it." Kelly whispers in Buffy's ear. Kelly inhales deeply, and oh yes, she can smell the slayer's arousal. Laughing loudly, Kelly pulls away. Leaving a dazed slayer behind her.

Walking up to the counter, Kelly grabs her wallet looking at Lana, "so how many thousands of dollars did I spend?" She asks laughing slightly.

Lana laughs and then looks at Buffy seeing she's still standing dazed in the middle of the store. "What did you do to her? She's still off in her own little world."

"I broke her, I think." Kelly chuckles. "Yo! Buffy, get with it girl." Handing the cash over to the werewolf Kelly smiles at all the bags of stuff that's piled up behind the counter.

Coming out of the land of lust slightly Buffy shakes her finger at Kelly "Don't you do things like that to me out in public! It's bad enough when you do it in the privacy of our own home! But this is embarrassing." Buffy stomps to the front of the store grabbing up some of the bags to throw in the back of the Hummer.

Lana leans in whispering "Is she really mad?"

"No, just horny." Kelly states smiling knowingly at Buffy.

Deciding to hell with propriety Buffy yells, "I heard that! Get your ass in the vehicle so I can pound you until tomorrow morning with that dildo from hell."

Lana's eyes shoot open and she looks at Kelly, who's grinning from ear to ear. "Is she serious?"

"God, I hope so." Kelly states hopefully. Before turning and smiling at the werewolf. "Call that number I gave you, they can help. It was nice meeting you. I'm sure we'll be back."

Lana laughs at Kelly, "Well, with everything you bought, I don't see you coming back anytime soon."

Kelly grins "You might be surprised."

Climbing into the Hummer, Buffy leans out the window, waving to Lana "It was nice meeting you. I'm sure we'll be back."

Waving back at the two strange women Lana smiles and heads back in the store. Turning around, she quickly switches the sign to closed and shakes her head at the fact she had just made over a $3,000 sale.

"Going to run into the furniture store at the mall quickly." Kelly states pulling into a parking spot close to the furniture store doors. Leaning over and quickly kissing Buffy she whispers "I'll be right back."

Shaking her head wondering what her lover is up to now, Buffy smiles before climbing into the back to grab up one of the bags, sorting through it to see what she bought. Eyes widening, seeing all the different lubes and flavors Buffy shakes her head in disbelief. 'Who knew there were so many different flavors? Warming lube? What is this, a pain inducing lube?' Buffy quickly looks at the other lubes, most of them Kelly had grabbed two of each, except for the pain lube, she only bought one of them. 'What exactly are we going to be doing with this?' Buffy wonders. Thinking briefly that yes, occasionally she got off on the pain of slaying, would it be the same for sex? Would she want to? Thinking heavily along those lines she doesn't realize Kelly had made it back.

Jumping slightly as the back of the Hummer opened Buffy turned around, with the pain lube still in her hand. Shifting the packages to the side, Kelly quickly loads the Cherry wood box she bought in the back. Looking up as she realizes Buffy is in the back seat watching her.

"What's wrong?" Kelly asks wondering why Buffy is staring at her with this look on her face that Kelly can't quite describe.

Lifting her hand slightly showing Kelly the pain inducing lube she asks "What? I mean, shit."

Kelly reaches in, lightly holding Buffy's hand. "I bought it just in case. Every now and then I enjoy some pain. Obviously, I think you might have that figured out by now. So I bought it to try. Simply washing with water and soap, will neutralize the ingredients in the lube. If you don't want me to use it on you, that's fine. I won't force you to try anything you don't want too, Buffy. I just wanted to get a variation of things to try. Some of this stuff we might use once or twice and delegate it to a box in the attic." Shrugging her shoulders Kelly smiles lightly "We won't know until we try."

Nodding her head in acceptance Buffy smiles, grabbing the bag and bringing it up front with her to continue looking through it. "Chocolate flavored?" Buffy states quietly, quickly opening the bottle and squeezing a little onto her finger, hesitantly licking it off and smiling at the slight chocolate taste. Not real strong but lightly flavored. "Not bad."

"This stuff just lightly flavors, it doesn't cover up the actual essence. It more or less enhances it." Kelly states with a grin. "Of course, I think you taste absolute delicious as it is, but…most of the edible stuff is flavored." Kelly shrugs.

"Oh, yeah." Buffy eyes Kelly up and down. "Delicious." Lightly licking her lips eyeing Kelly a little harder before grinning and turning back to her bag of goodies that she brought up front.

"Hey, I forgot to ask. What's that box you bought for?" Buffy stops and looks at Kelly.

Grinning Kelly points to the bag in Buffy's lap and states "Toy box. I've got keys to it and I can put a magical protection on it so only you or I can open it."

Buffy smiles "That'll work!" Digging back into the bag she pulls out a set of nipple clamps, pulling them out of the package she inspects it realizing that they're adjustable. Clamping it on the skin between her thumb and forefinger, she plays lightly with the tension, grinning.

"We can't play with everything in one day, Buffy." Kelly rolls her eyes getting a hint of what's running through Buffy's mind. Glancing and seeing the pout on her face Kelly chuckles lightly.

"Could you imagine the magic…" Kelly trails off thinking. "Shit!" She pulls the vehicle over quickly and unhooks her seatbelt turning to Buffy focusing in with her senses. Pulling away shaking her head she states "We need to stop at the Magic Box. But I want you to stay in the vehicle, just in case, okay?"

Frowning at Kelly, Buffy asks her "What's wrong?"

"The magic. You have a magical signature now, Buffy. It isn't that strong. Actually I'd say it's faded quite a bit from this morning, but it's going to keep getting stronger and stronger. Anyone that has any magical ability will feel you. That means especially Willow and Tara. So I'm going to make a charm to negate the signature until we make a more permanent solution."

"So, I'm going to get a tattoo like yours?" Buffy asks with a grin.

Turning and looking at the grinning slayer Kelly smiles. "That would be the best thing to do. Do you mind having a tattoo?"

Shaking her head Buffy smiles "Nope. Matching tattoos sounds pretty cool."

Snorting out a laugh Kelly shakes her head. "I can think of better looking tattoos to get for that. Damn, I'm going to have to call the coven again, and this time I'm going to have to explain." Kelly grumbles, picking up her cell phone and dialing.

"Why?" Buffy questions quietly.

"Special ink for the tattoo. Then we'll have to find someone we can trust to do it." Kelly states before smiling.

"Mistress Lansing, it's wonderful to talk to you…Yes I did speak with her earlier…" Closing her eyes Kelly shakes her head blushing lightly. "I should know you would know….Yes I need some ink…Do you have any information you can send to me?….Thank you…Yes, the address is 1630 Revello Drive, Sunnydale, California….Yes…Yes, I will bring the young woman to meet you as soon as we are able to get away…Yes, I know we are on a Hellmouth, kind of how we met…no, she's not a werewolf, but that reminds me, I did run into a nice young lady today and gave her Sherri's name and number….Yes the young woman's name is Lana….I believe she will call…Thank you Mistress…" Disconnecting the call Kelly breathes out slightly and looks at Buffy.

"I guess that means they figured out what happened?" Buffy grins looking at Kelly's slightly dazed look.

"Umm, yeah. I should have known Mistress Lansing would figure out what was going on. She definitely has the sixth sense." Shaking her head Kelly grins. "She'll be sending the ink to us overnight. We should have it tomorrow morning sometime." Buckling herself back up, Kelly pulls out and drives quickly to the Magic Box, picking up the ingredients for the spell and heading back to the house.

Hooking the necklace around the slayer's neck, Kelly leans down kissing her neck lightly. "I need to finish making the rolls. I have to get up early tomorrow and do some running around." Seeing that Buffy is about to ask if she could go with her. "I have to do this myself, okay?" Kelly smiles knowingly as the Slayer starts to pout. Licking up her neck Kelly huskily whispers "How about I promise to make it up to you?"

Groaning Buffy turns around, latching onto the brunette's lips and kissing her for all she's worth, she pulls back and growls "You better."

Smiling, Kelly lightly runs her hand through Buffy's hair before reaching down and grasping her ass with both hands to lift her up slightly, urging Buffy to wrap her legs around her waist. "Hmm. This was a lot easier, didn't even have to exert any muscle whatsoever to pick you up. I could get used to this." Kelly whispers, leaning in sucking down hard on Buffy's pulse point.

Alternately licking and sucking on the pulse point to Buffy's utter enjoyment, Kelly finally pulls away. "Damn. I really do need to get these rolls done. I probably won't have a lot of time to do them tomorrow. And forget Saturday. It's going to be a mad house over at the witches house." Shaking her head Kelly grins, setting the blonde down on the floor. "You can always go look through the bags of toys, if you want. I'll join you after I get the first batch in the oven to bake and the next batch rising."

"Damn food taking all my play time away." Buffy grumbles heading into the living room.

Quietly chuckling at her lover Kelly quickly gets to work.

"Okay. I want you to explain to me why you got two of the same vibrators and dildo's in the same sizes, but in different colors?" Buffy asks, holding up an example.

Smiling devilishly Kelly grabs all said vibrators and dildo's out, lining them up. Buffy realizes one set all of them are 'flesh' colored while the other ones were whatever color, be it pink, purple, marble, blue. Frowning trying to figure out why Kelly did it, Buffy shakes her head not understanding. "I don't understand."

"Say one night, either myself or you are wanting a little extra something in the back side." Wiggling her eyebrows Kelly grins. "We really should keep that type of thing separate. So…" She trails off to see if Buffy gets it.

Thinking for a minute Buffy lights up as it sinks in. "So, all the flesh colored ones will be for that while the different colored ones are for the normal activity." Buffy grins in realization as Kelly smiles at her. Then she starts frowning grabbing one of the flesh colored dildo's, holding it up. "Kelly, not to complain or anything, but…Isn't this a bit on the big side to be going there?" The dildo she's holding is 9" long and 2" wide.

Shrugging her shoulders Kelly just states "We start with the smallest possible one" holding up a small four inch dildo that's only half an inch thick "and work our way up. We may never use that one. It may become a favorite. We may go back and get another one of my horse sized ones to try." Stopping and thinking Kelly even shudders thinking about that. "Maybe not."

Buffy laughs glad to see there might actually be something Kelly isn't willing to do. "Why not baby? You don't like the idea of my pounding you in the ass with my 12" dick?"

Growling at the slayer Kelly pounces on her stating "the twelve inches isn't what has me worried, it's the four inch wide body that is making my sphincter muscles tighten up in dread. Your hand isn't that big!" Kelly states kissing her repeatedly in between words making Buffy laugh.

"So you would rather have me fist you in the ass, huh?" Buffy grins making Kelly groan and bury her head in her neck.

Shaking her head Kelly whispers "What have I done? Have I created a sex monster? Or an ass monster? I thought I was the one with an ass fetish." Kelly groans quietly.

"Oh, no. If I'm willing to try all kinds of new things, you're gonna be doing it too!" Buffy states grinning. "Plus the fact I find I'm liking this spicy talk, gets me in the mood."

Kelly looks up quickly "You have to get in the mood?" Kelly growls low and deep. "Just being near me isn't enough for you anymore? This is the quickest love affair in the history of the world. Throw her away, get a newer, younger model. The old model is so last year. Grey haired lady is too old….OOOMMMFFF"

Buffy shoves Kelly to the floor quickly filling her mouth with her tongue, quickly stroking in and out of Kelly's mouth in an imitation of what she would like to be doing.

Groaning, Kelly tries capturing the slayer's quick tongue, giving up she tries enticing it into battling with hers, stroking over each other, clashing and dueling over and over again. All of a sudden the timer on the stove goes off, making Kelly groan in frustration instead of lust.

Buffy looks at Kelly and states in a deadly calm and serious voice "You pull that shit out of the oven, forget the rest of it and get your ass back in here, understood?" Then proceeds to roll off Kelly, and sit with her back against the couch.

Eyes widening to the size of saucers Kelly nods her head and yelps "Yes Ma'am!" Hopping up and running in to the kitchen to take care of the rolls.

Buffy grins and whispers "Good Marine. You take orders well!" Then starts looking with more interest at the items Kelly bought…

"You want me to WHAT?" Kelly asks incredulously.

"Well, you bought all these things, so I thought you should wear this." Buffy states smiling winningly, waving a butt plug around.

"We are getting ready to go out on patrol and you want me to wear a butt plug?" Kelly states disbelievingly.

Nodding her head grinning Buffy says "Yep. You were the one that had to mention that it was dark out when you came back from the kitchen and that we really should go on patrol. I think this would be proper punishment for making me wait to do what I want to do!"

Trying to appeal to the slayer's goodness Kelly begs "But Buffy, we usually patrol for three hours. If you are wanting to do other things to me, aren't you afraid I might be sore from the butt plug being in for that long?"

Buffy acts like she's considering what Kelly said for all of two seconds before stating unequivocally "Nope."

"Buffy!" Kelly almost whines.

"You bought these, you're gonna use them." Buffy grins again knowing that with Kelly's new healing ability that it shouldn't bother the brunette at all. Even though Kelly might have forgotten that bit of information.

"I'm not arguing that, I'll put it in when we get back from patrol. I just think it might be a bit uncomfortable wearing it for three hours and trying to kick demon ass!" Kelly's getting slightly frustrated arguing with the slayer.

"Wear it." Buffy sing songs, waving it towards Kelly.

Grumbling Kelly grabs the plug away from her before looking down and grabbing a basic anal lube before starting to grin. Quickly unbuckling her belt and unbuttoning her pants, she swiftly pulls her pants and panties down to her knees and bends over with her ass facing Buffy. Holding the lube and the plug up she states sweetly "Buffy would you be so kind to do the honors?"

"Oh God." Buffy quickly closes her eyes, the tables having been turned. "Umm…maybe we should wait till after patrol. I, uh, wouldn't want you to be sore, I , umm was thinking about trying one of the smaller dildos out on you, yeah. Yeah, why don't we wait till later?" Buffy quickly mumbles out without opening her eyes.

Watching the blonde trying to get out of this, Kelly shakes her head grinning. Slowly walking back so she doesn't trip on her pants she bumps her butt into Buffy, making Buffy's eyes open wide and look down at the ass looking up at her, with a few scars poking out from under Kelly's shirt that had ridden up slightly.

Putting the lube in Buffy's left hand Kelly instructs Buffy in a husky voice, enjoying this immensely. "Since I'm going to be wearing this for quite a few hours, you'll want to make sure you use plenty of lube. Now open the lube and spread a good amount on your finger. That's good. Now gently insert the finger, oh yeah! That feels good." Kelly groan pushing back slightly against the slayer's finger. "Mmmm. Oh uhh… now pull the finger out and put some more lube on two fingers and gently, yeah!! That's it, loosen up that muscle, feel that? God that feels good! Now gently separate the two fingers inside me. GOD YES!" Kelly groans at the pleasure building up in her, starting to rock against the slayer's fingers. Shaking her head trying to get back on track Kelly takes a deep breath. "Now, squirt a decent amount of lube in, that's it!! Yeah, so good." Handing the soft foamee butt plug to the slayer Kelly smiles. "Now, you need to pull your fingers out" grunting in displeasure at the pressure being pulled out of her Kelly continues "Now, lube the butt plug up and gently insert it in." Wiggling against the plug as Buffy slowly inserts it in until it seats itself firmly in Kelly's anus Kelly groans. "Ohh, wow! That feels good!! Buffy we should put one in you for tonight…Oh God! Clenching and unclenching my ass I'm almost ready to come right now!!" Kelly groans in pleasure.

Buffy pants, feeling horny as hell, her own ass hole clenching in want. Feeling her panties soaking through with her juices Buffy groans loudly.

Feeling an orgasm working its way through her body just aching to get out Kelly moans lowly "Buffy, please!"

Looking down at Kelly's ass seeing her hips rocking back and forth, Buffy realizes that Kelly's on the brink but needing a helping hand. Quickly reaching down, Buffy shoves three fingers in her, quickly stroking back and forth and reaching around with her other hand rubs Kelly's clit hard and quick, making Kelly climax in seconds.

Panting heavily in release Kelly slows her rocking motion, getting control over her body slowly. Huskily whispering "Thank you." Before slowly standing up after Buffy pulls her hands away and pulling her pants up to button them wiggling slightly at the feeling of the butt plug. Shrugging her shoulders in defeat Kelly smiles as she hears Buffy moaning behind her and smells her musky arousal.

Wiping the smile off her face Kelly turns around looking at Buffy asking quickly "Are you okay honey? Is there something wrong?" Reaching out to gently run her hand up and down Buffy's forearm, in a calming gesture.

Grabbing the brunette, Buffy literally jumps up on her, kissing her hard before pulling away and looking into the eyes that are laughing at her. "You know what's wrong, and that little tease you just did was just..just not nice!!" Buffy growled "now I want you to do something about it and quick!"

Kelly literally drops to her knees in front of Buffy quickly unhooking her pants and yanking them down far enough to bury two fingers inside her, and licking away at her clit. Quickly bringing the slayer to climax, before gently licking up the escaping juices. Slowly standing, groaning at the pressure in her ass, Kelly pulls Buffy's panties and pants up, quickly fixing them for the slayer, who had grabbed onto her shoulders when she dropped down in front of her and still hadn't let go.

Body quivering from the quick orgasm Buffy blinks her eyes open looking at Kelly. Coughing lightly to clear her dry throat before saying "That'll work."

"Always happy to help out a lady." Kelly grins.

Shaking her head and rolling her eyes Buffy walks into the kitchen, washing her hands before grabbing her gear and looking at Kelly with a raised eyebrow. "Are you ready to try out some of your new strength? I want to see what you can do."

Easing into the slayer so her body is brushing Buffy's lightly Kelly smiles "I thought I just showed you what I can do? You want me to do something else?"

Growling "Kelly, you were the one that said we needed to go on patrol! Now stop with the teasing and get your sexy ass in gear."

"Sexy? You think I'm sexy?" Kelly states with a hint of a serious note in her voice.

"That would be a definite yes. Let's see here. Tall, good no make that great body," Buffy stops to leer at Kelly's breasts briefly "deep-brown soulful eyes, honest, great personality, and…" Buffy trails off tilting her head considering for a moment.

"And?" Kelly wonders what Buffy is thinking about.

"Well I can't decide what I think is more important, your cooking ability or the fact that you can literally make me come screaming." Buffy smirks up at Kelly.

Rolling her eyes at the Slayer picking on her, Kelly pulls away and heaves a deep sigh. "If my lovemaking and my cooking ability are interchangeable, I guess I'll just cook from now on."

"I don't think so." Buffy growls before smacking Kelly on the ass, getting a yelp in reply.

"Watch that shit, I have something extra down there!" Kelly wiggles slightly, rubbing her ass where Buffy had smacked it.

Busting out in laughter, Buffy leans down and lightly kissing where she smacked it. "I'm sorry. You know I love you."

Pouting lightly Kelly grabs her jacket putting it on and quickly putting away her sword, knives and stakes.

"HEY! I just realized I can see your weapons. Nice Katana, by the way, looks authentic, not like the stuff that's sold now a days." Buffy states quickly.

"Really?" Thinking for a second Kelly nods her head. "Makes sense. The magic exchange is like taking part of me in you and vice versa…hence you being able to see my weapons. And it is an authentic Katana – a little present from this Japanese business man, for saving his life. He would have been dishonored if I hadn't accepted it." Shaking her head with a sad look on her face Kelly continues "It had been in his family for like twenty generations. He didn't have any family to give it to, and thought I should have it."

"Ready." Kelly asks with a small smile looking down at the blonde.

"Well, let's see what kind of trouble we can find for you." Buffy states laughing slightly.

"Ooh, looks like we got a live one for you." Buffy states with a grin watching a vampire walking their way.

"Don't you mean a dead one?" Kelly smirks.

"Whatever. Now, I want to see you actually fight him. Don't just behead him or stake him like you usually do." Buffy instructs.

"Hey! I don't…excuse me, but I didn't have the skills you do. The strength, the speed, the healing ability! So no picking on the fact I took them out as quickly as I could!!" Kelly states looking at Buffy with a glint in her eye.

"Hello, girls. What are two babes like you doing walking around in a cemetery at night?" The vampire states with a toothy grin.

"Not looking for you, obviously." Buffy states with a roll of her eyes.

"Yeah, I don't like my partners with quite so pointy teeth. Plus the fact he's got the Y chromosome. Not to my liking." Kelly grins looking at the confused vampire.

"Kelly, you really shouldn't confuse them. It doesn't take much." Buffy grins. "I don't think he knows what you mean by the Y chromosome thing. Maybe you should explain it."

Growling the vampire takes a swing at Kelly "Enough talking, time for dinner."

Quickly ducking the swing, Kelly slams her fist into the vampires stomach, lifting him off the ground. Quickly spinning into a back kick, Kelly kicks him hard, as he goes flying back a good twenty feet.

Buffy claps her hands. "Nice. Your leg muscles and the extra power gives you some extra boost. Can't wait to see what you will be like at full power. Oops, he's getting up and he looks pissed." Buffy states with a little grin, sitting down on top of a tombstone to watch her lover.

Slamming a fist into the vampires jaw, knocking him down Kelly quickly looks over at the grinning slayer. "Glad I'm providing you your entertainment for the night." Wiggling her ass slightly. "This thing is distracting!" Kelly grumbles ducking the vampires swing, coming up behind him and knocking him down on the ground. "Can I kill him yet?" Kelly asks with her hands on her hips watching the vampire get up and coming at her again. Clasping her hands in a double fist Kelly slams them against his jaw, breaking it and knocking the vampire unconscious. Watching him collapse to the ground Kelly looks at Buffy with a lift of an eyebrow.

Sighing heavily Buffy hops off the tombstone looking down at the vampire. "Well, since you broke his jaw and knocked him out, you might as well stake him."

Quickly staking the vampire Kelly looks at Buffy shaking her head. "I'm not used to playing with them. I'm used to taking them out as quickly as possible."

Buffy nods her head "That's a good thing. I mean, with not having any extra powers, just your normal strength and speed you definitely should take them out quickly. Personally, I usually take my frustrations out on the evil demons." Buffy shrugs her shoulders as she nods her head that they continue on patrol.

Raising an eyebrow at the slayer Kelly smirks slightly "Does this mean that now you're going to start taking out the vampires quicker?"

Buffy looks confusedly at the tall brunette. "Huh?"

Walking beside Buffy, Kelly eases her body closer until her shoulder and hips rub against each other as they walk. In a low quiet voice Kelly states "well, if you normally take your frustrations out on evil demons. You don't necessarily need the demons to take those frustrations out on now, do you? Actually, I would prefer you to not take your frustrations out on them." Kelly huskily states the last in a low deep voice that works it's way through the slayer's body, making her center ache in response.

Inhaling quickly Buffy shakes her head "You are evil."

Kelly smiles, smelling the arousal suddenly coming from the slayer. Feeling a tingling/cold sensation at the back of her neck Kelly starts to turn, but before Kelly can take out the vampire, Buffy quickly stakes it and continues walking.

"How long did you know it was there?" Kelly asks questioningly, since she had felt it just before it reached them.

"A couple minutes. You?" Buffy asks glancing up at Kelly.

"Right before it reached us. That was a weird sensation." Kelly kind of shivered slightly. "Kind of tingly and cold."

Buffy smiles slightly. "I like to say it's my Spidey senses tingling. Very close to what you feel."

"So, are we going to quickly take out any demons we come across? Or do you want to see what else I can do?"

"Oh, I think we should do a good quick sweep of Sunnydale. Maybe pick up the pace somewhat and hit all the cemetery's and hot spots. I figure with you having some of my speed and strength we should be able to pretty much check all over town in record time." Buffy states with a grin.

"Do you want to split up? Or would you prefer to patrol together?" Kelly asks seriously.

Shaking her head at the idea of splitting up Buffy glances up at Kelly. "I want to patrol together. I know you can take care of yourself, but…I like being with you. Close to you." Shrugging her shoulders, Buffy continues walking. "Is it the heart/soul thing?"

"Partly. Feeling complete. But I think part of it is that you want or need someone to be there for you, and you realize I'll be there." Kelly quietly states.

"Let's pick up the pace. The sooner we finish patrol, the sooner we get back home!" Buffy grins up at Kelly, making her laugh.

"I think you just want to make me as uncomfortable as possible with this damn thing up my ass. I guess I should be happy you didn't want me to wear one of the bigger ones! Or a clit weight." Grinning evilly Kelly looks at Buffy as she starts to jog, picking up the pace. "I think that's what you should wear tomorrow night on patrol. After all, it's only fair with you making me wear this tonight."

Buffy groans, quickly picking up her pace. "I should know you would want revenge for this."

"Oh, you better believe it! You won't get by with torturing me without some payback." Kelly grins. Hearing something Kelly slows down, looking around. Seeing a cat jump down from a trash can in the alley, Kelly shakes her head.

"Have you ever thought about getting a pet?" Kelly asks quietly, continuing their jog around town.

Buffy shakes her head. "Not really. Unfortunately after mom died, I didn't have a lot of extra money. What money I made went to paying bills and groceries. Having to feed an extra mouth just wasn't in the cards."

"Do you like animals? I mean any kind. Dogs, cats, fish, lizards?" Kelly grins slightly.

"Lizards?" Buffy raises an eyebrow at that. "That's not an ordinary kind of pet, is it?"

"No, but I like to ask. I like all kinds of animals." Shrugging her shoulders Kelly picks up the pace a little.

"I like dogs best, I guess. Why?" Buffy questions, keeping pace with Kelly. They both turn into the cemetery at the same time.

Heading back out after a few minutes, they keep up the quick pace. "I always wanted to have a pet. Growing up on the farm we had horses, cows and pigs. But it was all for food and working the farm. Father" Kelly almost spit's the word out. "Wouldn't let us have pets. Said they were a waste. I thought, maybe if you didn't mind a few weeks after Christmas we could go to the pound and check out the animals, maybe pick something out?" laughing slightly Kelly states "Or maybe let something pick us out."

Buffy lays her hand on Kelly's arm, to pull her to a stop. "Why don't we look for one sooner?" She asks looking up into the brown eyes that show so much of the other woman's feelings.

Smiling down at the slayer Kelly runs her hand down the side of Buffy's face. "I just figured people that have bought their kids a pet for Christmas will have decided to get rid of them by then. A lot of people don't realize the work a dog would take. Potty training, teething, regular training." Kelly smiles hugely. "I want a big dog. Something like a Rottweiller or a Bull Mastiff."

Buffy grins at the excited brunette. Deciding right then and there that they would definitely get either a Rottweiller or a Mastiff, hell maybe both. It isn't like she didn't have a big enough house for them, the back yard they could finish fencing in. Kelly had enough money so that wouldn't be a consideration. Nodding her head at her decision. Both. Definitely.

"Looks like you were having a discussion with yourself there girlfriend. So what were you thinking?" Kelly asks leaning down brushing her lips gently over Buffy's forehead.

Grinning Buffy reaches up and grasps her hand. "Come on, let's finish patrol. And yes, we can get a dog. I kinda like that idea."

"Really? We can get a dog?" Kelly picks Buffy up swinging her around in excitement. "I love you!"

Laughing at her lover, Buffy smacks her lightly on the shoulder "Put me down you beast! We need to finish patrol."

Letting Buffy's body slide slowly down hers Kelly grins as Buffy's eyes darken slightly. "As you wish, beautiful lady."

Groaning and shaking her head Buffy just pulls away to continue on patrol. Knowing it's useless to complain to the brunette. Hell, if she said too much she might want to… Glancing up at Kelly, seeing her smirking slightly, Buffy wonders if she would do something like that. Would she want to have sex in public? Feeling her body tighten in response to that thought, Buffy inhales loudly.

Hearing Buffy's inhale Kelly turns her head slightly to look at the blonde. "Something wrong?"

Buffy tilts her head. "You said anything I want, anytime, anywhere right?" At Kelly's nod Buffy grins real big. "So if I asked you to make me come right now? Would you?"

"Are you asking?" Kelly asks huskily, eyes suddenly dark and watching Buffy's lips closely.

Licking her suddenly dry lips Buffy watches Kelly's eyes, so dark, so passionate, so willing to do anything she asked her. "How can you make me want you so easily? I've never just seen someone and wanted them with the passion, I want you. You walking in the room makes me ache, how do you do that? I feel like I'm in a perpetual state of arousal around you and at the drop of a hat I would be willing and able to jump you." Buffy huskily states, hearing Kelly's heart beat faster, smelling the arousal coming from the brunette.

Easing in until her body was as close as it could be to the slayer's without actually coming into contact with her, Kelly asks quietly, hoarsely "Are you asking?" Waiting for an answer Kelly looks into Buffy's eyes, seeing the struggle within. Finally seeing Buffy get control of her hormones, Kelly backs off trying to calm her own body down. Taking a few quick deep breaths Kelly smiles and says one word. "Patrol."

"Yeah, let's finish it and get the hell home." Buffy's voice cracked slightly.

"With your physical training, and natural ability you might be able to take me with the extra power you'll have." Buffy states seriously as they get back home. "Maybe." Buffy grins up at Kelly, leading the brunette in the house. As Kelly turns to lock the door behind them, Buffy presses her against it. "I seem to remember a certain brunette doing wicked things to me against this door recently." Buffy growls, reaching her arm around Kelly, unbuttoning her pants, easing her hand down inside Kelly's panties pressing against her mound, feeling her arousal.

Bucking against the hand in her pants Kelly just quietly moans and rests her forehead against the door.

"Now. What do you think I should do as repayment to this brunette?" Buffy slides her fingers down just far enough to stroke over the silken skin hiding Kelly's clit. Coating her fingers in Kelly's arousal, Buffy gently pulls the hood up, exposing the rapidly swelling muscle, and gently, oh so gently rubs a light circle over it. A light touch that is just teasing to the woman. "Should I bring her to the edge of climax and not let her come? Keeping her there for hours and hours? Or should I take her quick and hard making her explode over and over again?" Feeling the wetness escaping the brunette and hearing the groan that started deep and worked it's way slowly up and out of her mouth, Buffy smiles.

"How come you're not saying anything? What should I do? Do you have any preference?" Feeling Kelly's hips trying to push against her hand, trying to force more pressure Buffy moves her finger off the swollen muscle. Rubbing her face against the strong back of the brunette Buffy moans quietly, feeling the pressure building up quick within herself.

Swallowing repeatedly Kelly's scratchy deep voice haltingly speaks up. "Any…thing. But…I can feel…the want within…you. You need…as much if…not more than…me."

Buffy rubs her aching breasts against Kelly roughly. "God yes!" Buffy growls. "But I want to fuck you. Fuck you hard, but I don't know if I can wait…" Buffy trails off pushing her mound into Kelly while slipping her hand down Kelly to quickly insert two fingers as deep as she can inside her from this position, making Kelly rotate her hips and moan.

"There's something…in the toys…" Kelly moans as Buffy quickly rubs her thumb over her clit, pushing against it roughly.

Mentally running over the toys, Buffy realizes Kelly is talking about the double ended dildo. Shaking her head against her back Buffy whispers "I want to be over you, rubbing my breasts against yours as I pound into you."

Groaning at the pictures in her head, wanting it also. Kelly states quickly "There's a harness that will work with it. One end in you, the other me, pound away all you want."

Panting at the idea, Buffy quickly pulls her hand away, much to Kelly's displeasure. "Come on, quick."

Grabbing everything up quickly they both run up the stairs, throwing the items on the bed Kelly and Buffy both strip quickly. Buffy, remembering the anal plug as Kelly bends over groaning as she pulls her pants off, reaches to gently run her hand down Kelly's butt. Pushing against the plug gently. "Are you sore?" She whispers.

Groaning at the push Kelly shakes her head. "No, but it feels so wet and open that you probably would be able to fist me there right now if you wanted."

Panting heavily Buffy grinds out "God Kelly. Don't confuse me. I want so much. To touch, to taste, to pound you, to have you pound me! Are you sure we can't do it all tonight?"

"Shit Buffy! Just pick something and do it already!" Kelly growls out pushing herself against the hand that had grasped the plug and was pulling it out slightly before shoving it back in, without Buffy even realizing she was doing it.

At Kelly's push Buffy realizes what's she doing. Quickly glancing at the toys spread over the bed her eyes widen as she realizes one of the harness' has two holes. Mind working overtime at the possibilities she looks at Kelly pushing against her. "Close your eyes." Buffy whispers. Seeing Kelly close her eyes without another word, Buffy shakes her head at the trust the brunette is giving her. Quickly reaching over for the harness, Buffy looks at the flesh colored double end dildo's wanting something decent sized to be inside her, but wondering if it would be too much to be used in Kelly's tight backside. Shaking her head, Buffy realizes Kelly will let her know if it's too much, she grabs the longest, thickest one they have, quickly sliding it through the hole, she looks at the other dildo's that will work with the harness seeing the purple one that had to be a good two inches wide and eight inches long, Buffy decides that will be good to try. Sweeping everything else off the bed, except for the anal lube.

"Keep your eyes closed and lay down on your back on the bed." Buffy states huskily. As Kelly is climbing up the bed Buffy quickly states "Wait a minute." Gently grasping the plug, she slowly eases it out of Kelly, making Kelly moan and push trying to follow it. Placing her other hand against Kelly's ass cheek, "Let me remove it."

Growling low in her throat Kelly let's Buffy do as she wants. "Please tell me you aren't planning on teasing me anymore. We might not wake up from the blast for a week if you do."

Buffy groaning at that thought shakes her head "No more teasing. Go ahead and lay down."

Quickly pulling the harness on, she eases her end of the dildo inside her groaning at the feeling. Generously applying the lube to Kelly's end Buffy climbs between Kelly's legs, easing them further apart. "Can you do something for me?" She whispers.

"Anything." Kelly pants.

"Lift your hips up for me?" Buffy asks watching the quick rise and fall of Kellys chest looking at the gold nipple ring winking teasingly up at her.

Shifting her legs up, Kelly pushes up with her feet so her hips are in the air. "High enough? Too high?" Kelly groans, feeling Buffy running her hands up the inside of her thighs.

"Just right." Buffy smiles easing herself between Kelly's thighs hesitating at the feeling of the dildo inside her shifting as she moves. Gently running the purple dildo through Kelly's juices, Buffy eases the tip into Kelly. Hearing Kelly groan at the slight pressure and feeling her trying to push onto it, Buffy quickly puts her hand on her abdomen. "Don't push. Let me."

Groaning, wanting Buffy just to get on with it Kelly inhales deeply nodding her head.

Reaching down to grasp the other dildo, Buffy gently puts it into position, pushing with her hips, edging forward until it's pressing against Kelly's rosebud.

Hissing at the slight pressure against her sphincter Kelly has to force herself to hold still. "Buffy, please!" Begging slightly.

"I need to be sure…" Buffy whispers knowing Kelly will realize what she's trying to say.

Nodding her head knowing Buffy needs to take her time. "You're doing great." Smirking slightly, wondering if Buffy is watching, knowing in her heart that she is. "You're wonderful. I love you, so…YES." Kelly yells hoarsely, feeling Buffy slowly slide in her body, filling both holes slowly. So achingly slow until she's buried inside her.

"Are you okay?" Buffy asks once she's eased in completely, groaning in pleasure at the dildo filling herself and the feel of the base of the other dildo pressing against her clit.

"Oh, yeah." Kelly moans easing down and pushing back hard against the blonde. "Can I open my eyes now?"

Groaning at the pleasure of the give and take of the shared dildo and the base of the other one pressing against her. "Yes."

Looking up into the dazed hazel eyes above her Kelly has to smile. "Jump in with both feet Buffy."

Supporting herself on knees and her hands, Buffy lowers herself so her breasts rub tantalizing over Kelly's, Buffy kisses Kelly hard, flicking her tongue against Kelly's roughly. Pulling her hips back slightly, Buffy pushes back into her both of them groaning.

"Is this too much, right now?" Buffy pants pulling out of the kiss. Seeing Kelly shake her head negatively she smiles slightly. Easing back out and in again, Buffy starts a slow easy rhythm. Feeling the shifting, enjoying the feeling of the slight tugging coming from Kelly's clenching, Buffy starts a faster rhythm, becoming more comfortable. Groaning at the feedback she's receiving from the slight friction of the dildo in her and the pressure of the base of the other one against her clit, Buffy pushes in hard, rotating her hips, pressing her clit hard against the base, making Kelly groan.

"Buffy, didn't you say you wanted to pound me?"

Burying her face in Kelly's neck Buffy nods, pulling her hips back and slamming them hard into the brunette, making Kelly grunt.

"Can you support my lower body, if I wrap my legs around you?" Kelly pants out, pushing up against Buffy.

"Oh, yes." Buffy groans and after Kelly wraps her legs, she sets up a fast hard rhythm, Kelly meeting each thrust. Both of the women grunting and moaning at the pleasure.

Feeling the climax building inside her fast, Kelly holds back, wanting Buffy to come at the same time. "So close, Buffy. So Close." Kelly pants out

Buffy groans in response, biting down on Kelly's shoulder, burying her hands in Kelly's hair. "Not much more." Buffy groans, thrusting harder into Kelly.

"God yes! Buffy faster, harder." Meeting each thrust Kelly groans loudly.

Slamming hard in and out of Kelly, Buffy feels herself tipping over the edge, screaming.

Feeling Buffy climax, Kelly let's go and climax's hard with Buffy, both of them still rocking hard against each other. Extending the orgasm, feeling the magic releasing from her body, Kelly keeps up the rhythm. As the magic continuously releases, feeling a return coming into her body Kelly cries out Buffy's name before feeling her sight start to narrow, knowing she's close to passing out. Shaking her head, trying to hang on, wanting the pleasure to last as long as possible.

Feeling the magic exchanging between them, Buffy pulls her upper body up slightly so she can see Kelly's eyes. Buffy's mouth opens in astonishment. Kelly's eyes have turned a deep amber color with lights sparking across. Seeing the pleasure building even more within the brunette's eyes Buffy decides to put some serious slayer strength behind her thrusts, Buffy pounds faster and harder into Kelly.

Grunting as the slayer starts pushing into her harder, Kelly meets each thrust with one of her own. Arching and counter thrusting against Buffy, Kelly grasps Buffy behind the head, pulling her down into a rough kiss, battling against her tongue.

Feeling her body tightening again, ready to climax a second time, Buffy pulls away quickly, panting and groaning. "KELLY…"

"Just…a bit…more…" Kelly groans out pushing harder against the punishing pounding of the slayer, feeling another orgasm working through her body.

"NOW!" Kelly yells out, both of them coming at the same time as they expel magic into each other, rocking continuously as they both see sparks shooting off their body as they have one long continuous orgasm or hundreds of back to back orgasms. Neither one of them are sure which it is as the sweat drips from their bodies from their exertion. Slowing the rocking of their bodies against each other. Kelly reaches around Buffy, pulling her to her tightly and kissing the top of her head, whispering "I love you."

Chuckling and then groaning at the shifting of her body Buffy kisses Kelly on the chest. "I love you too. I think I should maybe, umm pull out" Buffy trails off, slightly embarrassed.

Agreeing silently, Kelly loosens her arms around Buffy.

Buffy giggles quietly. "You might want to unwrap your legs, too."

Shaking her head, Kelly reaches down with both hands, grasping Buffy's ass and pulling her hard against her after she unwraps her legs. "But I really like you there…and there!" Kelly grins chuckling. Clenching her inner muscles against both dildos in her, Kelly rocks up hard against Buffy, making her groan.

"Kelly, please!" Buffy moans. "I don't think I can take any more, right now. I feel like one big puddle. I don't even have the energy left to…" Buffy trails off, waving her hand down at their bodies.

"Is that a 'Kelly, please help out here?" Kelly asks, scraping her nails along Buffy's butt cheeks, making her arch into her, both of them groaning.

"Kelly!!" Buffy pleads.

"Okay, can you roll with me?" Buffy nods her head at Kelly's question, burying her face between her breasts.

Entangling their legs together, Kelly wraps Buffy tight against her, rolling them quickly until Kelly's on top. Panting at the shifting inside her body Kelly breaths heavily for a second, arching her body up with her head buried between Buffy's neck and shoulder.

"Kelly?" Buffy questions worriedly.

"I'm 'kay." Kelly mumbles into her neck, catching her breath, waiting for her body to unclench from it's automatic response. "GOD Almighty!" Kelly groans loudly. Feeling Buffy's body start to shake in laughter Kelly states quickly "Please don't!" Pressing her body down tight against Buffy, trying to keep her from shaking and making the appendages inside her start this again. "Are you done laughing?" Kelly groans quietly.

"Yes." Buffy whispers trying not to laugh.

Easing her weight off the slayer, Kelly closes her eyes as she slowly lifts her body off the dildo's, resisting the urge to slam her body back down. Grunting as the one inside her anus reaches that last ring of muscle before popping out, making her want to keep it in. Shaking her head she lifts the last little bit and it pops out. Lifting her body the rest of the way off the other one, Kelly rolls to the side of Buffy quickly, reaching down with one hand feeling for the buckles, fumbling briefly before unhooking them. Sliding her body down after taking the few seconds to let her body adjust, Kelly opens her eyes looking up to Buffy's eyes, seeing the Slayer silently laughing at her expense. Narrowing her eyes dangerously Kelly grasps the dildo that half of is still in Buffy and pushes in slightly before pulling it back out, setting up a quick fast rhythm within the slayer.

Buffy's eyes widen, knowing she's in trouble as soon as she sees Kelly's eyes narrow. Feeling the dildo shift inside her and starting sliding in and out of her, Buffy groans, shaking her head looking at Kelly. "Kelly!"

"Can't take it slayer?" Kelly growls low.

"God! YES!" Buffy yells, pushing up meeting the thrust. Not believing her body is responding again.

Grinning, Kelly reaches under the harness, feeling the wetness from the slayer's multiple orgasms, quickly collecting it on her hand, on her fingers, as she continues sliding in and out of the slayer. Quickly moving her hand around and under the strap between the slayer's legs Kelly gently eases her pinky inside the slayer, easing in and out gently.

Eyes opening wide Buffy groans, pushing hard against the finger penetrating her anus. Hearing Kelly ask her if it feels good, Buffy catches her eyes and nods her head quickly.

Smiling, keeping up the movement of the dildo, Kelly eases her pinky out, easing her index finger in alternating the in and out motions of both areas, feeling Buffy clenching her muscles. Leaning her head down to lay it on Buffy's thigh, watching what she's doing to the slayer's body, enjoying the sight of the slayer's juices trickling out, her hips rocking against her.

Kissing the skin under her head, Kelly hears Buffy groaning, feeling her leg muscles tensing as her whole body gets ready, Kelly eases a second finger inside Buffy making her climax, body shaking. Slowing down quickly, Kelly eases her fingers out as Buffy unclenches her sphincter muscles, then slowly starts easing the other end of the dildo out. As it comes completely out, Kelly quickly slides the harness completely off Buffy before crawling back up beside her looking at her face.

"Are you okay?" Kelly questions, lightly running her fingers through Buffy's sweat soaked hair, watching the tremors still working through her body.

Buffy nods her head slightly, not able to open her eyes yet.

Gently running her hands through her hair continuously, Kelly waits until Buffy finally comes down from her high. Swallowing, Buffy finally opens her eyes seeing Kelly's loving brown eyes looking back at her. Smiling slightly, Buffy raises her hand to run her fingers over her eyebrows. "Glad to see your eyes back to normal." Buffy croaks out quietly.

"What?" Kelly questions, wondering what Buffy is talking about.

"In the middle of the first orgasm your eyes turned a deep amber color with sparks shooting across, I'm assuming it was the magic in your body, since it was at the same time we were exchanging our magic."

Shrugging slightly "Probably is the magic exchange, I had to fight hard to keep from passing out, when I fought against it, I felt the power building up stronger in me. Maybe what the coven is sending us will give us a better idea of what's happening to us."

Flopping over onto her back Kelly turns her head to look at the clock, realizing sunrise was literally going to be in roughly thirty minutes. Looking to the windows, she sees the sky lightening. Shaking her head and closing her eyes she groans.

"What's wrong?" Buffy asks rolling on her side to look at Kelly. Seeing Kelly point towards the clock without opening her eyes Buffy giggles, giggles quickly turn to a deep laughter.

"Yeah, it's funny to you! You got some sleep the night before. This will be the second night in a row that I haven't got any sleep." Kelly mumbles under her breath.

Reaching over and grasping the nipple ring, Buffy tugs gently, then more firmly, making Kelly arch up. "Poor baby. Going forty-eight hours without sleep. I thought you were tough. Aren't you a Marine? I thought they were trained to go a week without sleep, or something."

Growling low, Kelly grasps the hand pulling on her nipple ring. Opening one eye Kelly looks at Buffy "Yeah, but most Marines haven't expended enough magic in twenty-four hours to power a house for a month!"

Eyes opening wide Buffy realizes Kelly has a point. "Are you going to be okay?" She asks slightly worried.

Nodding her head Kelly grins slightly. "Yeah, I'll be alright. I still have a lot of power, thanks to you it even feels like it might be expanding a little."

"You could try and sleep for a couple hours, would that help?" Buffy asks quietly, easing her hand out from under Kelly's, running her fingers through her hair.

Relaxing at the loving gesture Kelly turns to face Buffy. "Lay back? Please." She quietly asks.

Rolling onto her back Buffy grins as she feels Kelly ease against her side, burying her face in her neck and throwing an arm and leg over her body. Running her hand from Kelly's hair down her back, and running her other hand across Kelly's arm.

"I love you." Kelly whispers before falling asleep, not hearing Buffy's reply.

Buffy whispers "I love you so much." Realizing Kelly is already asleep, Buffy smiles slightly before closing her eyes to take a small nap.

Slowly waking up a few hours later, Kelly smiles at the warm body half under her body.

"You waking up?" Buffy asks in a sleep roughened voice, feeling the smile against her neck. Smiling slightly as she feels Kelly kiss her lightly before lifting her head.

"More or less." Kelly smiles laying her head back down, rubbing her leg up and down Buffy's leg, smiling as she feels Buffy spread her legs slightly as Kelly's knee reaches close to her center. "Wanting more, already?" Kelly chuckles slightly feeling the slight shift of Buffy's lower body. "What time is it?" Kelly asks licking up the side of the slayer's neck, tasting the saltiness and groaning.

Grumbling Buffy looks over at the clock "Nine."

"Shit." Kelly states against the neck she is licking away at. "Mmm. You taste good."

Buffy laughs, "I probably taste like dried sweat."

Nodding her head enthusiastically, Kelly goes "Oh, yeah. Sweaty, salty, Buffy goodness. I wish I had time to lick every single part of your body, but…"

"You have to get up and do your mysterious errands, right?" Buffy growls in displeasure.

"Yeah, that and bake a bunch of rolls, that someone else wouldn't let me fix yesterday!" Kelly states before sucking the soft skin between Buffy's neck and shoulder roughly into her mouth. Hearing Buffy groan low. Kelly let's go of the skin, pulling away and looking at Buffy. "I love you."

Looking at Kelly, Buffy smiles slightly. "I love you, too, baby."

"Good." Kelly states smiling wickedly as she hops up and runs into the bathroom leaving a stunned and confused slayer on the bed, wondering what just happened.

Hearing the shower start up, Buffy growls, throwing her head back against the pillow hard. "Bitch."

"Still mad at me?" Kelly asks the pouting Slayer. Buffy hadn't said a single word to her since she hopped out of bed thirty minutes earlier to get showered and dressed to go do her errands.

Buffy looks up briefly and looks back down at the bowl of cereal she's eating.

Shaking her head at the slayer acting like a child Kelly almost laughs, stopping herself just in time. That's all she would need to do. If Buffy was mad now, she would be pissed if she caught Kelly laughing at her.

"I'm leaving." Kelly states trying to get a rise out of Buffy as she grabs the keys off the hook, finishing her cup of coffee, putting it in the sink.

Buffy keeps her eyes down, eating her cereal. Knowing she's acting like a child, but not liking the fact that Kelly won't tell her what she's doing, or let her go with her, or even give her a good morning loving! Never mind they spent all night screwing each others brains out.

"You know, you're gonna feel like shit when I get back here, don't you?" Kelly questions the slayer slowly working her way towards the slayer. "You know I love you. There's something that I have to do, that I want to be a surprise." Still nothing. Shaking her head and sighing, Kelly turns and grabs her cell phone on the way out of the house.

Hearing the door shut, Buffy's shoulders slump. 'What the hell am I doing? Acting like a child? I'm twenty-five years old, in love with a wonderful woman and I'm pouting just because she's got something to do for a couple hours! SHIT! Dumb, dumb, dumb.' Quickly hopping off the chair Buffy runs to the front door, slinging it open and running right into Kelly's arms.

"You are a know it all bitch, you know that?" Buffy mumbles into Kelly's chest, feeling the laughter bubbling up out of the brunette.

Hugging the slayer tight to her, Kelly kisses the top of her head. "I love you, Mighty Mouse. Can I ask a favor, while I'm gone?" Buffy nods her head against Kelly's breast, lightly pressing a kiss between them, enjoying the half unbuttoned shirt, even though her girlfriend is showing her cleavage again. "Can you make sure to gather up all our toys and bring the box up to the bedroom? I think we might have dropped a few last night in our rush up to our room." Kelly chuckles slightly. "I can't imagine why."

Giggling Buffy grins "Me neither. Yeah, I'll make sure everything is put up. I know Dawn isn't probably going to get in till six, but, just in case. Do you want me to start on the rolls while you're gone?" Buffy offers the truce, hoping to make up for her earlier childishness.

Pulling slightly away from the blonde Kelly looks down in shock at Buffy. "You want to bake the rolls?" Seeing Buffy nod her head Kelly grins. "Let me write down the instructions for you. Come on." Walking back into the house arm in arm they make their way into the kitchen. Letting go of Buffy, Kelly quickly writes down the instructions and hand them to Buffy. "Any questions?"

Buffy reads over the instructions and shakes her head. "I think even I can't mess this up." Buffy giggles slightly.

Leaning down, Kelly kisses Buffy gently and says "I really need to go now."

Nodding her head Buffy grins sadly, "I know. Hurry up, okay? I love you."

"Love you too. I'll get back as soon as I can." Quickly kissing Buffy on the forehead, Kelly heads out grinning.

"Thanks, Josh. You did a good job." Kelly states looking in the mirror, nodding her head. Putting the bandage on she grins at the young man.

"It was a pleasure. A little odd, but what the hell. Keep Vaseline on it for a few days, it'll help. And you know about the other what to do." Josh states grinning slightly. For an older woman, she was hot. Definitely great body, too bad about the scars, but some people are into that type thing, Josh thinks.

Quickly putting her bra and top back on Kelly hands the money to Josh. "Keep the change. If I decide to get another one, I'll definitely be back. Merry Christmas." Kelly waves heading out the door.

Realizing the woman had tipped him by $50 he yells after her "Thanks!"

Arriving at the airport a little after noon Kelly heads to the side, where private planes land. Looking around, she sees a tall brunette, an older gentleman, and Sam Finn. Starting to laugh, she walks hurriedly up to the group.

"So, why are you here?" Kelly asks Sam.

"Well, since you threatened to nail my hide to the wall if anything happened, I figured I'd better see to it personally!" Sam laughs, hugging Kelly tightly.

"God it's good to see you. Where's the lump of wood at?" Kelly asks looking around, seeing if Riley was around.

Rolling her eyes Sam shakes her head. "We're kind of giving each other a break right now. Can we talk about it later?"

Raising an eyebrow at Sam, Kelly nods. "Sure thing. You got somewhere to go?" At Sam's shake of her head, Kelly states "You're coming with me."

Turning to the gentleman and young woman Kelly smiles slightly.

Watching the tall woman Giles is surprised. When he talked to her earlier he expected someone older, especially once Sam explained to him that Kelly was a Brigadier General in the Marine Core. As the woman smiled Giles eyes opened wide. Quite a beautiful Brigadier General also. Smiling back slightly he looks over at Dawn, standing beside him.

"It's a pleasure to meet you two. As you probably figured out, I'm Kelly Maclay." Kelly sticks her hand out shaking first Giles' hand and then Dawn's. Eyeing Dawn up and down Kelly starts chuckling. Dawn has to be roughly 5' 10" tall. "How did you end up with all the height? Your sister got the raw end of the deal. But she does kind of remind me of a kewpie doll." Kelly starts laughing a little harder.

Dawn had been reserving judgment about this woman, even though she had pulled strings so that Giles could come to America now and that Dawn could be here early, but she felt herself liking her. Raising her eyebrow slightly she asks "So, you're Tara's sister?"

Nodding her head, she sees the reserve in the younger woman's eyes. "Yeah, half sister. Left home the day I turned 18. Went into the Marine Core. On leave until I retire, came looking for her." Shrugging her shoulders slightly "That's about it."

Hearing a coughed "Bullshit!" behind her Kelly rolls her eyes slightly.

"Yeah, yeah. There's a lot of other stuff before, during and after, but it can wait." Seeing a couple bags, Kelly quickly reaches down grabbing them. "Is this all of the luggage?" Looking from Giles' nod to Dawn's nod, she turns around looking at Sam.

"Get your gear Finn, before I put you up on charges for disobeying a direct order from a superior." Kelly growls out low.

Coming to attention and snapping off a salute Sam yells out "Sir! Yes, Sir!" And quickly turns around heading out onto the tarmac to the plane, telling the pilot to head on out, grabbing her duffle bag and catching up to the crew.

As Kelly walks up to the Hummer Sam starts laughing. Turning around to look at Sam, Kelly asks "Got a problem Finn?"

Shaking her head Sam just laughs louder. "Nice butch vehicle, Kel."

"Fuck you, Finn." Kelly growls out.

"Been there, done that. Want to do it again?" Sam laughs when Kelly just gives her a deadly stare. Anyone else would be quaking in their boots at the woman, but Sam had known her too long.

Giles and Dawn look at each other with wide eyes before looking back at Sam and Kelly.

"Mr. Giles, if you'd like you can ride up front with me. That is if you don't mind, Dawn?" Kelly asks Dawn.

Shaking her head Dawn smiles mischievously at Giles "Nah, the old man there probably needs to sit up front. Don't want to tax his body too much, you understand."

"I'll put your luggage in the back." Kelly states then looks at Sam "Come on. And, oh the answer is a very serious world of no. I am actually in a serious relationship with someone." Kelly states quietly.

Sam jerks her head up from where she was throwing her duffle back in the back of the Hummer to look at Kelly's face. Hearing a note in Kelly's voice that she had never heard before. Raising both eyebrows in surprise Sam leans against the side of the vehicle. "I'll be damned. You're in love."

Looking at Sam, Kelly actually blushes lightly, making Sam even more intrigued. "Who is she?"

Shaking her head Kelly looks Sam in the eye "Not right now, Sam. You'll see soon enough. You might end up sleeping on the couch or in a sleeping bag, hope you don't mind." At the negative head shake, Kelly sets the luggage in the back of the Hummer. Climbing in beside Giles and Sam climbs in the back with Dawn.

"So, do you two need to stop anywhere and pick up anything?" Kelly asks looking at Giles before looking in the rearview mirror at Dawn. Seeing both of them shake their heads no. Kelly smiles. "Well, I guess that means we're heading right back to the house."

Giles chuckles low. "You didn't tell Buffy what you did?"

Shaking her head Kelly grins "Nope. Complete surprise. I made her mad at me this morning, she wanted to come with me on my errands, I pissed her off when I told her she couldn't. I left her at the house with instructions on how to bake the yeast rolls that I wasn't able to get to yesterday." Kelly explained.

Choking slightly Dawn squeaked out "You have her baking? Are you trying to kill us all?"

Giles can't help but let out a quiet laugh. Buffy and baking did make the mind boggle.

"I gave her explicit instructions. I don't think she'll mess them up." Kelly confidently states.

Laughing hysterically Dawn looks at Giles who has turned in his seat to grin at her. "You don't know my sister!! She can't boil water! I hope you have a back up plan when she ruins your rolls." Laughing so hard tears are rolling down her face Dawn grabs her stomach to keep it from hurting.

Rolling her eyes at Dawn's hysterical laughing and the quiet chuckling coming from beside her, Kelly mumbles quietly "I hope you're wrong. I promised yeast rolls and if she ruins them, I'll spend half the night making another batch big enough for everyone."

"Shit!" Quickly grabbing her cell phone, Kelly punches in Tara's phone number. "Hey Sis! How are you doing…I'm fine…Yeah, I was wondering, would you mind if a couple more people possibly show up for dinner tomorrow?…Just some friends…Yeah they're kind of stranded and I happened to run into them, you know I felt sorry for them kind of thing…" Feeling a slap on the back of the head from Sam, Kelly grins. Catching Giles' eye she sees him smiling hugely. "Nope wouldn't be Christmas if we aren't giving, you got that right…Good! Thanks sis, I appreciate it. Love you." Disconnecting the phone Kelly rolls her eyes. "Don't know why I even bothered. She'll know here soon, anyway."

"So did everyone have a good flight?" Kelly asks.

Giles smiles at the young woman. It really is hard to believe the position she holds in the US Military. "Yes, it was quite fine, actually. Riding in military airplanes I was expecting it to be, how shall I say? A bit less pleasant?" Giles states.

Dawn grins at Giles "It was cool. I can't believe you were able to get us here."

Shrugging her shoulders Kelly states "Wanted Buffy to have a good Christmas." Was all she said.

Pulling up in front of the Summer's house Kelly grins to herself. "Giles, Dawn, why don't you go ahead and knock on the door? I'll grab your luggage."

Sam steps around back of the Hummer to grab her duffle bag as Kelly grabs the two pieces of luggage before shutting the hatch.

Turning to walk up towards the house, they see Buffy opening the door and realizing who's standing there in front of her grinning ear to ear she launches herself at her watcher and her sister, wrapping them both up in a tight hug. Walking up and standing behind them Kelly watches the tears start falling down Buffy's face.

Sniffing hard Buffy pulls back slightly before hugging Giles by himself, making him cough slightly and say "Buffy, yes. I know it's been a while, but I do like to breathe."

"Sorry, Giles!" Buffy states pulling away wiping the tears from her face. "It's just, been so long. I was so upset when you said you couldn't get a flight. I guess this means you got a flight, after all, huh?" Turning to look at Dawn she frowns looking between two people that are very important in her life. "How did you both get here? And at the same time?"

Giles and Dawn both look behind them at Kelly, following their eyes, Buffy notices Kelly standing quietly behind her family with a soft smile on her face. Seeing Sam Finn behind Kelly, Buffy is kind of shocked, and maybe a hint jealous? Shaking that from her, knowing Kelly loves her completely she smiles. "You did this?"

Looking down and shuffling her feet slightly, Kelly just shrugs. "Wanted to see you happy."

Shaking her head at her lover, Buffy doesn't even think and walks up to Kelly, reaching up touching her cheek. "Thank you."

Smiling hugely at the thanks Kelly nods her head. "Let me get their luggage in, I hope you don't mind, but Sam kind of helped me with the getting them here and she's on leave with nowhere to go, so I kind of told her she could stay here. Do you mind?"

Sam is watching the interaction between the two women, realizing Buffy must be the woman Kelly's in love with. Shocked at the realization she looks at Giles and Dawn, who both seem oblivious to the interplay between the two women. Deciding to keep it to herself for now, Sam just watches.

Smiling at Kelly, Buffy shakes her head. "Of course not. Here let me take one of the pieces of luggage." Looking over at Sam, Buffy smiles, holding out her hand "It's good to see you again, Sam. I've actually learned a bit more about you from Kelly here. Is Riley with you?"

Frowning slightly Sam shakes her head. "Riley and I are kind of taking time apart from each other right now." Looking up at Kelly with a raised eyebrow, she said "She knows?"

Smiling Kelly nods her head "I told her everything…Well not details or anything like that, but she knows about us."

Buffy realizes they're all still standing in the doorway and the front porch turns and says "Come on in guys, let's get everyone settled."

Kelly smiles looking at Buffy's ass as she walks ahead of her into the house. 'Hmmm. How long before I get ahold of that again?'

"Dawn, I'm going to take your luggage upstairs and set it on your bed, is that okay?" Kelly asks quietly and at Dawn's nod runs up the stairs, dropping off the luggage to turn around to find Buffy standing in the doorway looking at her.

"I think that someone is a very sneaky Marine." Buffy quietly states walking up to Kelly, wrapping her arms around her neck, pulling her down into a long passionate kiss. Moaning as she pulls away Buffy smiles up at Kelly. "And I owe you something huge. Here I was being a bitch this morning and you…Damn, I am sorry love."

"No need to be sorry Buffy. Just be happy." Kelly grins. "By the way how are my rolls coming along?"

Buffy grins, "I've got two batches done and they look good. I actually tried one of the rolls, and man are they delicious." Buffy states proudly at the fact she didn't screw up rolls.

Raising an eyebrow Kelly asks "One roll?"

Nodding her head Buffy raises her hand "I swear! I was good. I was afraid you might spank me if I ate anymore."

"Well, let me finish up the rest of the rolls while you talk to Giles and Dawn. Is it really okay that I invited Sam to stay here?" Kelly asks worriedly.

"Kelly, it's fine. I promise. I know you love me. Sam knows, doesn't she?" Buffy asks quietly.

"I didn't tell her it was you. I just told her that there was someone. She's perceptive, she figured it out on the front porch when you thanked me." Kelly whispers quietly, gently running her finger down the side of Buffy's neck. "We better head downstairs before they come looking for us."

Nodding her head and giving Kelly a quick kiss, Buffy headed downstairs, followed by Kelly.

Heading into the kitchen to check on the rolls Kelly smiles, seeing that Buffy was true to her word. She had only ate one roll, of course that didn't mean that a certain Marine wasn't in there mooching a roll for herself. "Soldier! Get your hands off the grub. That's for Christmas dinner tomorrow." Kelly yells loud enough for everyone to hear her in the living room.

"Yes Sir!" Sam yells in response. "Fuck Kelly! This ain't fair. I haven't had your cooking in like years! Can't I get at least one?"

Hearing laughter coming from the living room, Kelly and Sam both smile at each other before laughing themselves. "You can have one, but leave them alone after that." Kelly smiles.

Checking the rolls in the oven Kelly grins to herself. Glad these are the last batch, she starts rummaging in the refrigerator pulling out all kinds of stuff to start fixing something to eat.

Sam's eyes open and she starts to grin. "You gonna fix something for dinner?"

"I am if you get your ass out of my way." Kelly growls at her over her shoulder.

"Sir! Permission to get my ass out of here and go to the living room, sir!" Sam yells at attention.

"Fuck off Sam." Kelly mumbles turning back to the refrigerator, making Sam laugh.

Buffy snorts quietly from the doorway at the antics of the two Marines. Catching Sam's eyes Buffy smiles. Walking into the kitchen. Seeing how those two would have been good for each other, but not seeing the love in Kelly's eyes for Sam that she sees every time those brown eyes look at her. "Hey! Can I have some soda's?" Buffy asks as she leans over the back of Kelly, resting her hand on Kelly's hip.

Growling Kelly states "You better watch that shit, if one of those two come in here and you're teasing me, you know there's a very good possibility that they'll find you against a wall pinned there with a very determined Marine against you."

Hearing a snort of laughter cut short behind her Buffy turns to see a smiling Sam shaking her head "And on that note, I'm going to go visit with Dawn and Giles." Watching Sam walk out, Buffy quickly runs her hand over Kelly's ass and between her legs, pressing slightly.

"Buffy." Kelly warns quietly.

Laughing lightly, Buffy smiles "Before you start cooking anything else, would you mind coming out to the living room with me?"

Quickly leaning up Kelly looks at Buffy, seeing the love in her eyes. "Of course. You know I'll go any where with you. I don't think going to the living room will be a hardship. Let me pull the rolls out, they're about done." Right then the timer goes off on the stove, making them both laugh quietly.

Pulling the rolls out and setting them out to cool, Kelly puts the mittens down, turning the oven off. Buffy turns to head into the living room, followed by Kelly.

Smiling at Dawn and Giles sitting on the couch, talking with Sam who's leaning against the wall, Kelly sits down in 'her' chair.

Looking up and seeing her lover pace back and forth in front of the coffee table Kelly shakes her head slightly, knowing what Buffy's gearing herself up for. It was a lot easier letting the other group know, especially since they had already figured it out. But telling her sister, and the man she considered her father would be a thousand times harder.

Sam watches Buffy, frowning slightly then looks at Kelly, she figures out what's going on and just sits down on the floor, to watch the show.

"Buffy? Is there something wrong?" Giles asks worriedly.

Looking quickly at Kelly with a small smile she shakes her head turning to look at Giles and Dawn. "No, there's nothing wrong." Raising her hand before either one of them can interrupt her she states "I've got something I need to tell you both, and I'm sort of a little nervous." Glancing over at Kelly again, seeing the love and support in her eyes, she walks over to the chair her lovers sitting in to draw strength from her. Lightly laying her hand on Kelly shoulder she faces the couch.

Looking up at Dawn seeing her confused look Buffy smiles reassuringly, making Dawn shrug her shoulders and smile back, realizing whatever it is, it really isn't bad. Turning her eyes to look at Giles, seeing the speculative look on his face as he glances from Buffy to Kelly and back, Buffy takes a deep breath. This just is not getting it done. Catching sight of Sam, she sees the support coming from this corner, made her smile at Sam slightly in thanks.

"I guess the easiest way to say this, is just to blurt it out." Taking a deep breathe, feeling Kelly reach up to hold the hand that's on her shoulder Buffy smiles radiantly feeling the love pouring in her from that touch. "I have found someone I want to spend the rest of my life with. It happened fast, but I am completely and hopelessly in love." Seeing Giles pull his glasses off and clean them, Buffy laughs quietly. "Giles, we really do need to get something else for you to do. One of these days you're going to rub a hole in your glasses."

Dawn looks at the blushing Giles to her sister, who is standing behind the chair Kelly is sitting in. Her hand on Kelly's shoulder. Kelly squeezing the hand on her shoulder. Kelly who is looking at her silently asking for her support, and friendship? Finally realizing what Buffy is saying Dawn's mouth opens and shuts a couple times before she grins hugely. "So. Are you trying to say that you have your own Maclay, Buffy?"

Seeing the love and acceptance on her sisters face, Buffy breathes a sigh of relief. Nodding her head Buffy rolls her eyes. "You have no idea, Dawn." Looking down at Kelly then at Dawn, it hits her. These two are going to be hell on wheels. Dawn likes to do anything and everything to irritate her and Kelly… "OH GOD! I just realized…" Looking at Dawn and then looking down at a slightly confused Kelly, Buffy states loudly, "You two are not allowed to gang up on me. It's bad enough one of you at a time, but I cannot handle both of you at the same time! No arguing, no questions, do you understand me?"

Smiling evilly, Dawn catches the glint in Kelly's eyes, 'Oh yeah. Kelly is going to be good to have around here. Someone to run interference for her. And someone to get into mischief with if that glint means anything.' Dawn smiles at Buffy "Sure Buffy." Buffy frowns at Dawn, knowing that tone, but deciding to ignore it for now.

Buffy looks at Giles, who has remained silent so far. "Giles?" Buffy questions with a slight hint worry.

Giles, giving up on cleaning his glasses is looking between the two women. Chewing on the ear piece of his glasses he studies Kelly intently. "You're also the Kelly Maclay the coven in Devonshire has mentioned to me, aren't you?" He asks out of nowhere.

Eyes widening slightly, Kelly looks at Giles. "May I ask why they might have brought my name up to you?"

Giles smiles slightly. Cautious woman, and quite brilliant, he'd bet. "A couple years ago, I was looking to possibly recruit some witch's to become possible watcher's for future slayer's. I thought that if a possible slayer had the additional protection of a witch, all the problems we had with The First might not have happened. Being able to hide these young charges could have saved many lives. Your name came up when I thought of the idea. Saying you were the absolute best, and possibly the most powerful witch in the world."

Buffy laughs out loud at that. "Yeah, you could say that Giles."

Frowning at Buffy, Giles raises an eyebrow in silent question.

Waving her hand at Giles, "We'll discuss that portion later." Buffy smiles down at her lover, running her hand through her hair. "So, Giles. What do you say? You obviously were okay with the idea of witches and slayer's training together. How do you feel about them living together and loving each other?"

Giles looks at Buffy, seeing the love in her eyes for this other powerful woman. Seeing the quiet pleading in Buffy's eyes to please be okay with it. Looking to Kelly's eyes, he sees the strength, and the power, and yes the absolute complete devotion to his Slayer in her eyes. A small grin starts working at the side of his face as he looks back up to Buffy, slowly working into a bigger grin and then turning into a huge, happy smile. Quickly standing up he moves to pull Buffy into a tight hug.

"You know you are the daughter I never had, Buffy. I see that you both love each other deeply. It is written all over your faces. I would be a buggered old fool to not be happy for you." Giles feels a tear slip down his face. "And I think I did quite better this time. I didn't say 'Dear Lord', now did I?" He chuckles quietly.

Laughing at Giles, Buffy shakes her head. "You did wonderful, Giles."

Standing up, Kelly looks at Dawn, sticking her hand out in friendship. Dawn stands up looking at the hand and looking at the woman, yes woman! That has captured her sisters heart and takes the one step to put her directly in front of her, looking up slightly to look in her eyes. "You hurt her, I'll…"

Kelly interrupts by laughing slightly, "Shovel speech?" At Dawns widening eyes and questioning look Kelly shakes her head and just says "Willow."

"Good…wait a minute! Willow knows? Before me?" Dawn starts to pout.

"Hey, hey. Don't be upset. Buffy wanted to tell you in person, and, well…She didn't want to hide it from everybody, so we either told them or let them guess." Kelly states quickly, trying to head off the possibility of a problem.

Dawn nods, accepting that it makes sense. "Okay, I'll forgive you two this time. But just to let you know, you have some serious sucking up to do." Grinning at the older woman Dawn opens her arms, ignoring the hand.

Smiling in appreciation, Kelly quickly grabs her in a tight hug. Thinking to herself, thank God for quick healing. "Thanks Dawn, I appreciate your acceptance." Kelly states quietly so only Dawn can hear her.

Pulling back seeing the serious look in Kelly's eyes she smiles and nods. "You love her. I wondered why you went to the trouble you did with Giles and me, now I know. It all makes sense, now." Turning to look at Buffy and Giles who are both standing there watching them.

Pouncing on Buffy, Dawn squeezes her tight. "I love you, sister mine! And you have so got to spill!" She whispers quietly in Buffy's ear.

Watching Giles step in front of Kelly and stick his hand out and seeing the mischievous smile coming across Kelly's face, she quickly pulls Dawn around, so she can watch as Kelly grabs Giles into a hug, making him "Dear Lord!" before a mumbled "What the hell!" and he hugs her back.

Dawn and Buffy look at each other laughing. Dawn leans in and whispers in Buffy's ear "She seems super nice." As Buffy nods her head Dawn whispers "And since you and her are together, I guess it's a good thing Giles and I didn't hit on her at the airport, huh?"

Pulling away looking in shock at her sister Buffy goes, "You didn't!"

Smiling slightly, Dawn shrugs her shoulders. "Crossed my mind. And to tell you the truth I think it crossed Giles' mind too, but I'm sure he'll never admit it."

"Dawn, what are you saying back there about me?" Giles turns with a slight frown on his face. Kelly had finally let him go, and they had been talking quietly until Buffy's exclamation.

Kelly had actually heard the whole conversation, having gained Buffy's super hearing and was trying not to laugh. Glancing over at Sam, who's sitting on the floor shaking her head at the group.

"Be nice or I'll make you stay in a hotel. A flea, rat and demon infested one, you hear me?" Kelly growls down at Sam.

Raising her hands Sam looks at Kelly innocently "I haven't said a word."

"Keep it that way." Kelly growls and then smiles slightly.

Laughing silently Sam winks at Kelly. "You two actually work. But I think it kind of has a weird twist to it, don't you?"

Rolling her eyes Kelly nods.

Watching Giles look from Dawn to Buffy and back again. "Well, are either one of you going to tell me what you are talking about?"

Dawn grins at Buffy and looks to Giles. "I was just telling Buffy that I know you were about to hit on Kelly at the airport…"

Giles interrupts with a "Bloody Hell!" Making everyone in the room bust out laughing.

"But Giles, it's okay. I told her I was thinking about it too. I think Kelly has some kind of pheromones thing going on, attracting everyone to her. I mean, come on, Giles! My sister? Miss Hump-a-lot…!"

"DAWN!" Buffy screams, interrupting Dawn.

Kelly can't help it. She had been trying not to laugh, but at Dawn's comment she busts out laughing. "Dawn, you have…"

"KELLY!" Buffy screams interrupting Kelly now. "There will be no discussing of my love life between you two! Do you hear me? I knew that you two would be impossible." Buffy pouts.

"Oh, poor little Mighty Mouse. I'm sorry." Kelly cajoles, stepping over to the slayer, pulling her into a hug, lightly kissing the top of her head. "I'll try and behave, okay? I don't want to embarrass you too badly in front of your family."

Wrapping her arms tightly around Kelly, Buffy buries her face against her chest smiling slightly at the cleavage right in front of her. Humming lightly into the cleavage, Buffy rubs her face slightly, feeling more than hearing the groan coming from Kelly.

"Buffy." The warning note in Kelly's voice brings Buffy out of the haze she was slipping into.

Pulling away with a frown Buffy looks up at Kelly. "No fun."

Looking at her with a raised eyebrow Kelly leans down to whisper into her ear "You want me to behave, you better behave. You start playing games and it's open season, understand?"

Pulling back and smiling at Buffy with that glint just daring her to continue. Buffy swallows lightly and nods her head. "Understood" She states grinning. "Love you."

"I love you, too." Kissing her lightly on the lips, Kelly pulls back. "Now, I need to figure out what to fix for dinner, okay?"

"Okay." Buffy watches as Kelly heads into the kitchen, half tempted to follow her in. Before hearing a throat clearing behind her. Blushing slightly she smiles turning to look at Giles and Dawn and even seeing a grinning Sam in the background.

Dawn looks at her grinning hugely "Definitely gotta talk later, understood?"

Shaking her head she looks at Giles who actually has a smirk on his face.

Giles looks at Dawn and mock whispers. "I have this feeling we might want to find somewhere else to stay, Dawn. What do you think?"

Dawn seeing Buffy blush even darker nods her head looking at Giles. "I think we should maybe call Willow and Tara. I'm sure they wouldn't mind putting us up."

Sam speaks up "Do you think they would mind my staying there too?"

Buffy, finally having had enough yells "Stop it! All of you just stop it." Plopping down in Kelly's chair she pouts, mumbling "I can't help it. It's just that she's so nice, caring, gorgeous and sexy! It isn't fair the things she does to me."

Dawn winks at Giles and grins at Sam. Running over and picking up the cordless phone, she calls Willow and Tara. "TARA!….Yes I'm home…Actually yes and no…Kelly worked it all out…Yeah, you and I need to talk about your sister…She kind of helped Giles come in for Christmas, also…Yes he is! Isn't it wonderful?…Actually the reason I was calling…"

Buffy grabs the phone out of Dawn's hand. "Tara, hi. Never mind Dawn, she isn't calling for anything other than to let you know her and Giles are here for Christmas…Yes, and actually Sam Finn will be joining us for Christmas also…I guess Giles and Sam were who she was talking about then…So, you weren't aware of what she was doing either?…Sneaky damn bitch…Sorry! She may be your sister but she is a sneaky bitch!…Yeah, I told them…Actually it went pretty well, until I found out that my sister and my watcher both wanted to jump her bones…Yes, I'm serious…"

Giles grabs the phone out of Buffy's hand, this time, making Buffy frown. "Ah, Tara, how are you doing?…No, no. Buffy's just kidding…Yes I know…she seems a tad off kilter, should I say?…You don't say?…Oh, yes, we might take you up on that…Yes, yes, thank you…We will be there tomorrow morning…Yes well, umm we love you too. Goodbye." Blushing lightly Giles hangs the phone up.

Turning and looking at a smirking Buffy, Giles shakes his head. "I did not want to jump her bones! What a crude thing to say."

Kelly was standing in the doorway listening to the phone conversations and quietly laughing. "Actually, Mr. Giles, for Buffy that's pretty tame!"

Turning to look at her love Buffy shakes her finger at her. "Aren't you supposed to be fixing something to eat?"

"I've got a roast in the oven with vegetables cooking. I even decided to use that damn bread maker I bought to make some fresh bread to go with it. I still prefer to do it by hand, but meat flavored bread just doesn't do it for me." Walking in and sitting in her chair, Kelly leans her head back closing her eyes sighing quietly.

"Know it all bitch." Buffy mumbles loudly. Watching Kelly smirk, she walks over and plops down in her lap, curling up against her. Smiling to herself when she feels Kelly start to lightly rub her back with one hand, while wrapping her other arm around her thigh, resting her hand on her waist.

"You two don't mind if we get cleaned up, do you?" Dawn asks quietly, almost unable to believe the ease with which her sister just curled up against Kelly, like she really felt at home there.

"Of course not, everybody make themselves comfortable. Dawn, would you mind Sam bunking in your room? Giles you can have my old room." Buffy looks at Dawn seeing her nod in agreement to looking at Giles who just smiles slightly at her.

"Actually, if it's alright with everyone, I would like to take a short nap. I never can rest on planes." Giles states looking at Buffy.

"Giles, this is your home while you're here. Make yourself comfortable. And, thanks Dawnie." Buffy smiles at her sister.

Sam moves over to sit on the couch watching with a slight smile on her face, the way Kelly and Buffy were acting with each other. Seeing Dawn nod that it was okay for her to bunk with her she smiled. "Thanks Dawn."

Waving her hand Dawn smiles "No problem. We'll bring up one of the cots from the basement, it'll be more comfortable than the sleeping bag Kelly mentioned earlier."

"Hey, she could have dealt. Better than the time I made her hang from a tree when she pissed me off." Kelly grumbles.

Buffy pulls away, smacking Kelly on the shoulder. "You didn't!"

Sam coughs and looks at Buffy, "Actually she did. Even though there was a sleeping bag involved."

Looking at her lover in disbelief. Buffy smacks her hard before getting off her lap to sit beside Sam.

"HEY! Get your ass back over here!" Kelly yells at Buffy.

Giles just mutters "Children" under his breath and heads upstairs and Dawn is torn between watching the entertainment and cleaning up. Finally deciding she can take a shower later, she sits down on the floor to watch the show.

Sam started laughing hysterically. "Actually Buffy, it isn't quite what it sounds like." Looking over at the pouting Brigadier General Sam laughs even harder. "I have got to get a picture of that and take it back with me to show it to the people that actually believe she's a hard-ass."

Buffy looks over and sees Kelly pouting, shaking her head at her lover, she looks back at Sam. "I'll decide if I should forgive her AFTER I hear the story."

Sam shakes her head at Buffy. "It really isn't what it sounds like, please I can't stand to see a grown Brigadier General hard ass pout. Please?"

Seeing that Sam is actually serious Buffy gives Kelly a look, "It better not be what it sounds like or you will be sleeping on the couch, understood?"

Nodding her head Kelly smiles as Buffy climbs back in her lap. Burying her head in the slayer's neck and wrapping her up in her arms she whispers "I love you. And really, I wouldn't be that mean for no reason at all."

Dawn shaking her head decides to move to the couch and sit down. "This better be good."

Sam starts laughing. "We were in the jungles of Madagascar chasing a Devolta Demon. Mean ugly demons that would literally bite the head off a person, swallowing it whole. These things were huge. Well, we finally came across some information on it and realized it was looking for a mate. It just happened that the female of the species slept in stasis upside down in a cocoon." Stopping for a minute she sees Buffy's eyes open in realization of what happened. Smiling at Buffy and nodding, Sam continued. "We found the female, and killed it. Kelly magicked the remains away so that way the smell wouldn't confuse the male looking for it. Just that particular area gave off the female pheromones, I guess." Shaking at the memory of that smell she grins slightly. "Well, needless to say that was when she and I were together, before Riley came into the picture. I had, ummm…" Sam trailed off wondering if she should actually say it, when Kelly spoke up.

"She fucking destroyed all my bras is what the bitch did. Out in the middle of the jungle, my boobs bouncing all over the place, hurting like hell. I had to tear a couple t-shirts up to bind the damn things!" Kelly grumbled loudly, making all the women laugh.

Buffy looks at Sam shaking her head "Why did you destroy her bras?"

Shrugging her shoulders Sam smiled "I really don't know. I just had this urge and went with it. Well, needless to say, that was the wrong thing to do. She needed someone to play Miss Devolta Demon bait and hang from the tree. Guess who played the part of the Demon? She fixed me up and hung me upside down in the spot the other was in and made me stay there until the male came along so they could kill it. Thankfully it was only a little over a day later. But I can tell you, hanging upside down, not moving for 26 hours? Not something I would suggest."

Tilting her head to look at Kelly, Buffy smiled. "I guess that wasn't as bad as it sounded. I'm sorry for getting mad."

Pouting slightly Kelly flutters her eyelashes at Buffy. "Don't I deserve an I'm sorry kiss? I mean you got mad at me, smacked me and took my snuggles away."

"Oh, jeeze. On that note, I'm going to take a shower." Dawn whines as she jumps off the couch, running up the stairs.

Laughing at Dawn, Sam leans back into the couch looking at the ceiling, remembering the fun times she and Kelly had. Looking over at the two women Sam smiles. Knowing they have so much more than she and Kelly had ever had together, or would have had.

Leaning in and placing a light kiss on Kelly's lips, Buffy giggles as she feels Kelly quickly reach and cup the back of her head, to hold her in the kiss, deepening it. Letting their tongues dance over each other, stroking and chasing each other from one mouth back into the other, Buffy groans low. Reaching up, scraping her nails through Kelly's hair, making Kelly growl deep, Buffy smiles in the kiss. Finally pulling away to breathe Buffy looks into her lover's desire filled eyes. "I love you."

Eyes lighting up at the declaration, Kelly leans in lightly brushing her lips back and forth over Buffy's lips before capturing her bottom lip between her teeth, pulling gently. "I love you, too babe." Running her hand up Buffy's thigh, slowly working it under her shirt, Kelly hears an excuse me and stops, frowning slightly.

Turning to look at Sam, Kelly grimaces. "Don't you want to go upstairs and get cleaned up, too? Or maybe take a nap? Ow!"

"Be nice." Buffy states after smacking Kelly upside the head. "I'm sorry, Sam. I'm trying to teach her manners, but she seems to have a one track mind."

"I have a one track mind?" Kelly asks surprise in her voice. "I don't know if you were more pissed at me this morning because I wouldn't stay in bed with your or take you with me! My God, we had literally just spent the whole night fucking each others…ooommmmmmmmffff"

Buffy shoves her hand over Kelly's mouth, forcing her to shut up. Blushing a deep red she looks up at Sam and realizes Sam's got her mouth covered, trying not to laugh out loud. "Umm, Buffy. It's pretty obvious you two are having sex. So trying to shut her up now, forget it!"

"It's not the fact that we're having sex, it's the fact that she's so willing to tell everyone about it!" Buffy growls with her hand over her mouth. "I mean, is this normal for her? Did she always just blurt things out like that?"

Sam's shoulders start to shake. "Well, she doesn't hide anything, she's more than willing to let people know if they want. But then again, I think I'm jealous."

Buffy frowns looking at her, "Why?"

"Well, she never spent the whole night fucking my brains out!" Sam states laughing.

Looking at Sam, realizing she's telling the truth, even with the laughing she turns and looks at Kelly with a questioning lift of the eyebrow. "I told you, I love you. The love comes through. Be it fucking each others brains out all night long, or making love in the early morning for hours on end." Shrugging her shoulders she smiles at Buffy.

Unbeknownst to everyone but Sam, Dawn had come back from taking a shower and had been sitting on the steps watching the end of Buffy and Kelly's make-out session and heard the rest of the discussion.

"I just want you two to be quiet while you do it." Dawn states with authority. "I mean, if you're going to be loud, your happy little behinds need to go down to the basement, or something, okay?" She states standing up and going to the couch to plop down beside Sam. "Did you want to take a shower? I can show you where my room is and you can get settled. I have a few drawers that are empty that you can put your clothes in."

"That actually might be a good idea, Dawn. Thanks." Standing up and following Dawn, Sam pats Buffy on the shoulder as she walks past. "You two look good together. It's easy to see how in love you two are." Before quickly heading up the stairs before Buffy can say anything back.

"I like Sam." Buffy whispers to Kelly. "I liked her when she came here before with Riley."

"She's a wonderful woman. She deserves someone better than Riley. Nothing against him, but…" Kelly trails off shaking her head.

"He's too self-centered? got this thing about powerful women?" Buffy states quietly.

"All the above. He's power hungry. He wants to control a woman that is more powerful than him. I think he thinks it makes him something he's not." Shaking her head slightly Kelly smiles at Buffy. "Let's not talk about him. He has a tendency to piss me off after a while. Why don't we make out while we can, before someone else interrupts?" Kelly quickly attacks Buffy's lips, pushing her hand quickly back under Buffy's shirt, to reach up and cup the slayer's breast in her hand, lightly running her thumb over the hardened nub through the fabric of her bra. Hearing Dawn heading back down the stairs, Kelly groans, pulling back from the kiss and pulling her hand out from under Buffy's shirt.

"Fuck, me." Kelly grunts out. "We aren't going to get any alone time, are we?"

Dawn flops down on the couch and states "Nope." Then starts laughing at the growls that come from both Buffy and Kelly. "You two are made for each other."

"I'm going to be one horny witch before Christmas break is over." Kelly grumbles loudly.

"And one horny slayer." Buffy adds her comment to the mix giving her sister the evil eye.

Dawn just smiles at the two women and turns the television on, flipping it to the Discovery channel to see what's on.

"Let me go check on the food." Kelly states quietly, kissing Buffy's ear. "I love you."

"Love you too." Buffy smiles, getting off Kelly's lap and letting her go to the kitchen. Watching Kelly walk away Buffy grins, wondering if they could sneak down to the basement for a quickie when she hears Dawn call her name. Sighing heavily and putting that thought on hold Buffy turns and looks at Dawn.

"Sit, please?" Dawn motions to the couch, beside her.

Sitting down Buffy looks at Dawn. "Go ahead and ask, Dawn."

"You really, truly love her, don't you." Dawn states more than asks. At Buffy's nod she smiles. "Did you feel weird with her being you know, a her?"

"Actually Dawn, not really. There was a few moments when I was afraid of doing something wrong, but it just felt right, you know?" Buffy states smiling slightly thinking about her lover.

"She makes you happy." Dawn states seeing the smile. A smile that had sadly been lacking on her sisters face for many, many years. "If you're happy, I'm happy." Dawn grins, leaning into Buffy putting her head on her shoulder. "I love you, Buffy."

Reaching up, stroking Dawn's hair Buffy smiles. "I am happy. And I love you too, Dawnie." Buffy grins, before whispering "She also cooks really good." Making Dawn laugh quietly.

"Well, I dare say that was quite delicious." Giles groans leaning back against his chair looking at Kelly. "My compliments."

"Thank you" Kelly smiles at him looking across the table at Buffy, who is on her third plate of food.

Sam pipes up "Can I come and live with you guys? I really miss Kelly's cooking."

Laughing at Sam, Buffy grins "How about you can come to visit anytime you want, but living with us, unless you have a really, really good set of ear plugs…"

Sam laughs out loud. "Okay, just visits then."

Dawn looks in disbelief at her sister. Turning her head to look across the table at Kelly she asks "What is this pod person, and where is my sister?"

"That is your sister. Seems she's loosened up a little since I came here. I think she needed it. Needs to have fun." Kelly wiggles her eyebrows at the slayer sitting across from her.

"You wouldn't let me have fun by sitting beside you." Buffy mumbles around a mouth full of food.

"I was not going to go through that again!" Kelly states shaking her finger at the slayer.

But I enjoyed the teasing. You got all hot and bothered. You were so flustered when Tara asked you if something was wrong when you started sweating when we were out to dinner that night. Buffy thinks at Kelly.

Behave. Kelly thinks back.

Smiling at Giles who is looking at them questioningly. Buffy rolls her eyes. "We'll talk later!"

"I believe, that we may need to talk sooner rather than later, Buffy." Giles states frowning slightly.

"It's not bad, Giles! Honestly." Buffy whines slightly.

You're whining, baby. If you want, I'll talk to him for you. Kelly thinks to Buffy, hoping to help her relax, since she saw her tensing up slightly.

"We both can talk to him." Buffy states out loud looking at Kelly.

Dawn and Sam look briefly at each other, confused before looking back at the two women.

Turning slightly pale, realizing they had been talking mentally, Giles looks from Kelly to Buffy again. "We definitely need to talk."

"Fine, you can go on patrol with us, if you want." Buffy states rolling her eyes.

Nodding his head to the suggestion, he relaxes.

Buffy grins at Kelly. "What's for dessert?"

You! Kelly thinks back at her watching Buffy blush slightly.

"I made some more cream cheese brownies, and you still have some of your pie left, don't you?" Kelly asks questioningly, honestly not knowing.

Buffy blushes slightly. "I finished it this morning." She mumbles looking down at her plate.

Chuckling slightly Kelly shakes her head at her lover. "I have got to remember to have a serious load of chocolate in this house for you. Oh, I forgot, did we get the package from the Coven?"

"Yeah, I put it upstairs in your box." Buffy grins at Kelly. "And I was thinking about who we would need, and Clem actually does the work, so I might ask if he would mind doing it."

Nodding her head at Buffy, Kelly smiles. "That would work out great."

"What are you two blathering on about?" Giles asks questioningly.

"Just something personal that I need to have done" Buffy states quietly. "Nothing to be bothered with."

Smiling at Buffy, Kelly quickly hops up, gathering the dishes and taking them into the kitchen, followed by Dawn who grabbed a few more sodas for everyone. "Do you need any help?"

"Nope, got it under control." Turning to look at the teenager, Kelly tilts her head slightly. "Are you okay with me and Buffy? I mean, really okay?"

"Yeah, it's like I said earlier. As long as she's happy and you promise not to hurt her, I'm of the good." Dawn states appreciating the older woman asking. "You have definitely loosened her up already, she's more open about everything!" Dawn giggles slightly.

"You think she's more open, wait until you hear Tara and some of her comments. I'm starting to think I might be a bad influence on everyone!" Kelly laughingly states.

"Actually, Tara always made comments. The only thing was everybody missed the majority of them." Dawn comments conspiratorially. "I acted like I didn't get them so she wouldn't be self conscious about it. She was always making Willow blush or go into a daze." Giggling Dawn smiles hugely.

"I should have figured as much. I love your sister dearly, but…" Kelly shakes her head trailing off.

"She's a little slow on the uptake sometimes, huh?" Dawn states laughing loudly.

"She's getting better." Kelly grins wickedly at Dawn, making Dawn laugh even harder.

"Hey, are you two talking about me?" Buffy asks coming into the kitchen. "I was wondering what happened to the brownies and drinks!" Heading over to Kelly and wrapping her arms around her waist. Buffy snuggles her head against her chest almost purring in satisfaction at being close to her lover.

Dawn shakes her head. "She's turning into a needy sister, isn't she?"

"I like my lovings." Buffy mumbles against Kelly's chest. "And you guys are taking precious time away from my normal routine."

Kelly looks at Dawn, catching her eye and mouths 'horny slayer.' Making Dawn giggle.

Smacking Kelly on the ass Buffy mumbles "I know you're talking about me, so stop."

"Dawn, would you mind taking the stuff into the dining room?" Kelly asks quietly.

Smiling at the look in Kelly's eyes Dawn nods her head, grabbing the drinks and plate full of brownies, heading into the dining room before coming back for the plates and forks seeing Buffy and Kelly both have disappeared. Shaking her head, she figures they snuck down to the basement.

"This place might be getting a lot of action for the next week or so." Kelly states, sitting Buffy on top of the dryer, looking her in the eyes.

"I better be getting a lot of action." Buffy growls, pulling Kelly in kissing her roughly.

"Can you be quiet?" Kelly asks, pulling out of the kiss before gently biting down the slayer's neck, running her hands under Buffy's shirt, pushing it up and unhooking her bra.

"Probably not." Buffy moans quietly. "But I'll try."

Leaning her head down, Kelly quickly sucks one nipple in her mouth, sucking strongly before switching to the other nipple and biting down on it gently. Feeling Buffy start to rock her body slightly, Kelly quickly works her way down to her pants, unbuttoning and unzipping them. Sliding them down off Buffy, with Buffy lifting her lower body off the dryer to help.

Laying the pants and panties on the washer beside her, Kelly glances around quickly, seeing a rolled up sleeping bag in the corner and grabs it, throwing it on the floor in front of the dryer and quickly kneels on it, pulling Buffy until she's on the edge of the dryer, her legs spread wide.

Looking at the glistening mound in front of her Kelly moans low in her throat before growling "Mine!" and diving in, fucking Buffy with her tongue, flicking her clit with her finger and massaging one of Buffy's breasts with her other hand.

Groaning loudly and wrapping her legs around Kelly's head, Buffy rocks against Kelly's mouth, feeling the pressure building inside her.

Quickly switching her mouth and finger, Kelly sucks down on the slayer's clit, keeping up a steady strong sucking motion, not letting up, while quickly inserting two fingers inside the slayer, starting a steady fast rhythm inside her. Hearing Buffy start to groan loudly, Kelly quickly moves the hand that was massaging Buffy's breast almost roughly, up to her mouth, lightly playing her fingers over Buffy's lips, until Buffy opened her mouth and sucked two fingers in, moaning around them to help keep her quiet.

Grasping Kelly's hair tightly, yanking on it roughly, Buffy rocks harder against Kelly's mouth and fingers growling around Kelly's fingers before tensing up and coming hard. Still rocking slightly against Kelly's fingers Buffy moans quietly as Kelly stops sucking and starts to gently lick at her sex, cleaning her up gently, as she slowly pulls her fingers out of her, continuing the gentle lapping.

Breathing deeply, Kelly finally rests her head against Buffy's thigh, while running her hands up and down Buffy's legs. "I love you, Buffy." She states quietly, getting her breathing under control and centering herself.

"I love you, so much Kelly." Buffy whispers quietly to her lover.

Slowly standing up, Kelly grabs Buffy's clothes and gently redresses her, hooking her bra back, adjusting the slayer's firm breasts inside the cups and straightening her shirt. Pulling back to smile at Buffy, Kelly winks. "Come on, let's head back upstairs before they wonder what happened to us."

"I think they might have figured out what we were doing." Buffy grins, grabbing Kelly to her and kissing her hard. "What about you, lover? Don't you need a helping hand?" Buffy grins wickedly.

Closing her eyes and groaning Kelly shakes her head. "Not right now, you can make it up to me later." Kelly hoarsely states.

"Come on, let's go." Buffy grabs Kelly's hand and tugs her up the stairs. "I need to get to the brownies before my evil sister eats them all."

Laughing Kelly smacks Buffy on the ass. "I actually made two batches of brownies, I hid the other batch, just in case."

Turning around quickly, a couple steps ahead of Kelly, Buffy nips at Kelly's lips. "You're too good to me, you know that?" Before kissing her long and deep, making them both groan. Wrapping her arms around Kelly's neck, Buffy strokes her tongue strongly over Kelly's before sucking on it. Hearing the door open behind her Buffy ignores it, continuing kissing Kelly.

Dawn huffs loudly. "Come on you two, you've been down there for forty-five minutes. That's long enough!"

Buffy pulls away and growls "Actually all day long isn't long enough" before leaning back in and kissing Kelly again.

"BUFFY!" Dawn yells in shock.

Pulling away and sighing loudly Buffy rolls her eyes at Kelly before turning around and continuing up the stairs. Leaving a breathless, dazed brunette standing on the steps.

Dawn looks at Buffy and then glances back down seeing Kelly just standing there with a dazed look on her face. "I think you broke her Buffy. And I really, really think I need to keep a good distance from you two." Dawn shakes her head feeling a buzzing in her own body.

Turning to see her lover standing there on the steps dazed Buffy giggles slightly. "Dawn, why don't you give us another hour" as she starts back down the stairs.

Shaking her head Kelly sees Buffy coming at her with her predatory look on her face. "Nope. Turn around slayer we've got company."

"Damn." Buffy growls, making Dawn and Kelly laugh.

"I'm going to change for patrol." Kelly stands up to head upstairs.

"I'll come with." Buffy starts to stand up and follow Kelly.

Kelly turns to look at her with a raised eyebrow. "Why don't you stay and visit, it won't take me long."

Pouting Buffy sits back down. "Not any fun." She grumbles under her breath.

"My God, Buffy! You're acting like you've never had good sex before." Dawn says snarkily.

"She probably hasn't if Riley was her main comparison." Sam states rather loudly into the room. Realizing she said it out loud, she blushes and goes "Sorry."

Buffy looks at Sam slightly shocked before grinning. "Actually, you're pretty much on the money! I thought you and him…"

Giles rolls his eyes at the conversation and decides to read his book, while waiting for the girls to get ready for patrol. Only half paying attention to the conversation.

"I think we're going to get divorced. Kelly tried to tell me he was going to turn into a control freak, but I didn't listen to her." Sam quietly states.

"She seems to know what's going on, doesn't she?" Buffy nods knowingly.

"Yeah, she just made the comment once. Letting me know what she thought. And she never said another word. Even though I know she really wanted to." Sam smiles thinking about Kelly.

"Were you and her together when you met Riley?" Buffy asks. Opening her eyes wide, "I'm sorry, that's none of my business." Buffy apologizes.

Sam starts laughing "I'm surprised you didn't ask Kelly."

"Actually, I didn't think about it. It kind of surprised me when we found out about the partner swap, I guess you could call it." Buffy states shaking her head and smiling. "She called him Missionary Man."

"That's one of her nicer names for him. They really don't get along." Sam says smiling sardonically. "Actually we were living together when I met Riley." Looking up to see if Kelly had come down yet she looks over at Buffy. "I fell in love, she gave me her blessing and told me she would always be there for me, as a friend. I moved out and three months later married Riley."

"She wasn't mad at you for leaving her?" Dawn asked surprised. "I mean, were you and Riley, umm. You know. While you were living with Kelly?"

"Riley and I dated, but we didn't have sex. Actually while I was dating Riley, Kelly and I weren't sleeping together. When I mentioned I liked him, she just nodded and moved her stuff into the other bedroom. She never got mad, but we were never actually in love." Sam shrugged her shoulders. "We loved each other, but we were just as happy being friends as bed partners."

Buffy's eyes got wide as saucers "Come on! There is like no comparison, here. Riley or Kelly? That's like comparing Vanilla ice cream to Rocky Road!!"

Sam starts laughing seeing Kelly coming down the stairs with a frown on her face.

"Well, I sure as hell hope I'm Rocky Road!" Kelly growls menacingly prowling over to Buffy looking at her with an evil glint in her eye.

"Of course you are, baby." Buffy grins up at her lover. Squeaking out "KELLY!" As Kelly swoops in, picking her up, throwing her over her shoulder and heads off into the kitchen.

Giles, who actually paid more attention to the conversation that he thought he would watched Kelly take off with his Slayer, shaking his head. "I really don't know which one of those two is worse." He states quietly looking back down at his book.

Dawn starts giggling and looks at Sam, who's quietly laughing. "So, Sam. Do you agree with my sisters assessment?"

Sam looks confused for a second, "Huh?"

"Vanilla Ice Cream and Rocky Road?" Dawn reminds her with a smile.

Looking towards the kitchen not seeing anyone Sam smiles hugely, "Don't you dare tell them I said this, but Kelly is definitely Rocky Road!! Her head is big enough as it is, without letting her know I agree about the comparison!" Sam laughs lightly.

Dawn nods and winks at Sam. Realizing she had forgotten Giles was still in the living room she looks quickly at him. Seeing him blushing lightly and trying to act like he's reading his book.

"Oh, Giles. Give it up already. A houseful of women talking about sex? You're a man. You're loving every minute of this!" Dawn sighs dramatically.

Giles looks up "I dare say I do not! You ladies are young enough to be my daughters! I do not think of you that way. I…"

"Giles, shut up. You're protesting too much." Buffy laughingly states coming back from the kitchen, looking well and thoroughly kissed. "Come on. Let's go out on patrol. Will you two be okay here?" Buffy asks looking from Sam to Dawn.

"Sure we will, we'll turn on the television, maybe watch some movies and eat the rest of the brownies that are left." Dawn grins teasingly.

"Go ahead and have the rest of the brownies, guys. I can make some more." Kelly smiles a knowing grin at Buffy.

Narrowing her eyes Sam catches the look. "You already have more made, don't you?"

Getting her patented innocent look Kelly shakes her head "Whatever are you saying, my dear Sam?"

"Oh, guys just to let you know. The pies in there are for dessert tomorrow. So please, they're off limits, okay?" Kelly let's them know as Buffy is getting her gear together, which is puzzling the hell out of Giles watching her put away nothing.

"What kind did you make?" Sam asks wonderingly. "I promise we won't touch them, I'm just curious."

"Apple, blueberry, cherry, pumpkin, blackberry, and peach." Kelly states smiling, knowing peach pie was one of Sam's favorites.

"My lord. How much baking have you done Kelly?" Giles asks as he follows Buffy to the door.

Waving bye to Dawn and Sam, everyone heads out of the house. "I just made the pies and the rolls for Christmas Dinner. I'm going to make some green bean casserole tomorrow morning, so it will still be warm for dinner."

Smiling slightly he looks over at Buffy "How much weight have you gained, since she's started cooking for you, Buffy?"

Rolling her eyes Buffy shrugs her shoulders "I think I might have gained three pounds so far. I noticed my pants are a little snugger in places than they used to be." She turns and gives Kelly the evil eye.

"You're too skinny. I want you to be wearing at least size larger. I like having something to hold onto." Kelly smirks. "You were nothing but skin and bones. And I am making it my personal responsibility to fatten you up some."

Giles snorts out a laugh "Here, here."

Turning and looking at Giles, Buffy glares "Not you too?"

"I never could understand you girls and thinking you need to be rail thin. Tara was the only one of you that actually looks like a woman should look." Giles states smartly.

Kelly purses her lips together, waiting to see if Buffy is going to say anything. When she just stands there looking at him with her hands on her hips Kelly shakes her head and laughs. "So, you do notice all these hot women that have surrounded you over the years, huh Mr. G?"

Giles blushes profusely, realizing he was, in a way busted. "I – I didn't mean it like that. I didn't notice them that way, I mean."

Buffy starts laughing and shaking her head. "Give it up Giles. You may be like a father figure, but you are still a man. And wait until I tell Tara what you said! That is just going to be so good!"

Giles actually pales at the thought of the young woman that still insisted on calling him Mister Giles hearing that. "Buffy! You wouldn't!"

"Hmm, we'll see." She grins evilly at Giles, making him squirm uncomfortably.

"Well, can we possibly change the subject before my reputation takes any more of a beating?" Giles asks questioningly.

"Sure, Mr. G." Kelly grins slightly. "So, you want to know about whatever is happening between me and Buffy. And I don't mean the sex part, right?"

"Yes, yes. Quite right." Giles mutters quietly "I can definitely do without the sex talk."

Kelly grins looking at Buffy "We need to find him a woman, don't we?" Looking at the watcher appraisingly Kelly grins. "You know, Giles. You are a very nice looking man. If you'd like I know a couple women that would love to meet you."

"Dear lord!" Giles groans. "Let's not and say we did, shall we?"

"Your loss." Kelly shrugs. "You might have some information on this yourself. We're each other's hearts. Soul Mates, whatever you would like to consider calling it." Kelly quickly states.

"Oh, my. You mean…" Looking from Buffy to Kelly and back again he scratches his head lightly.

"Yes. We are meant to be together. More than love, we are two pieces that needed each other to be complete." Kelly states smiling slightly at the stunned watcher.

"Dear Lord!" He mumbles before sitting down heavily on top of a tombstone. "We are talking about the power sharing, mind sharing thing here, aren't we?"

Buffy grins and sits down on a tombstone across from him. "Yep. Talking about doing the wacky every chance we get and exchanging powers. Happened for the first time yesterday morning. Well, now that I think about it, that might have started earlier." Turning and grinning at Kelly, Buffy winks "And then it happened all night long last night, into this morning around sun-up. And then again in the basement after dinner. And if someone hadn't told me to stay downstairs when they went to get changed…"

"Buffy! Please! I don't need to know the particulars!" Giles states heatedly before pinching the bridge of his nose with his eyes closed.

"Buffy, I hate to say this, but the basement thing doesn't count." Kelly shrugs. "No exchange, remember?"

"Yeah, but I enjoyed myself." Buffy grins hugely at Kelly. "You want to take the one trying to sneak up on you?"

Kelly nods "Yeah, I was just waiting for him to get a little closer."

As the vampire got within striking distance Kelly nailed him in the solar plexus with a back kick. Hearing the crack of his rib cage Giles eyes widen slightly. Seeing the vampire literally laying on the ground a good thirty feet behind Kelly, he hops off the tombstone to look at it.

"Kelly, you have literally crushed his rib cage." Giles starts furiously wiping his glasses looking from Kelly to Buffy. "Exactly how strong are you two?"

Buffy shrugs her shoulders. "She wasn't able to do that much damage last night. Yesterday morning we went to the track on campus and ran a mile in something like 25 seconds. But…" Buffy trails off looking at Kelly grinning.

"You were holding back too?" Kelly states grinning. At Buffy's nod Kelly laughs.

Kelly reaches down and stakes the poor vampire. "Come on guys, let's continue. He's the only one I feel around here."

Giles shakes his head ruefully. "I have some magical ability. Why can I sense neither one of you?" He asks questioningly. "I mean, I know from the coven that you are extremely powerful, Kelly and no matter how good your shielding is, it would leak. But I don't get a sense of you at all. And if you two are…Soul Mates I guess is the wording I would like to use. I should be able to sense Buffy."

Buffy grins, closing her eyes she levitates Giles five feet off the ground with a thought. Opening her eyes looking at her watcher who is staring at her in disbelief Buffy's grin gets bigger. She turns him upside down and starts laughing as he sputters out her name. Slowly rotating him back around, she sets him gently on the ground.

"Kelly, should I take off the charm?" Buffy asks quickly.

"Wait a minute, Buffy." Closing her eyes and sending her senses out, she doesn't feel anything within a mile radius that would realize what was happening. Opening her eyes she smiles "Go ahead."

Taking the necklace off Buffy watches for Giles reaction. Other than lifting Kelly and lifting Giles just now, she hasn't used her new found abilities. Not counting the mind talking thing.

"Dear Lord! That is absolutely amazing. If I am feeling that much power coming from you, Buffy." He turns and looks at Kelly with an amazed look on his face. "Do you have a charm, also?"

Buffy quickly puts her necklace back on and walks over to Kelly, lacing her hand in Kelly's. "No, she has a tattoo. More permanent, since she had some rogue covens and demons among other things gunning for her."

Tapping his glasses against his bottom lip, he looks appraisingly at the two women in front of him. "You two are becoming very powerful. You need to be extremely cautious and not fall into using your powers. You may become addicted…" Seeing Kelly shaking her head Giles trails off.

"Actually, I talked with the coven. Most cases that would be true. But for some reason when two soul mates meet and share our powers, we strengthen each other and purify the powers. They said we are actually incorruptible." Kelly states the facts.

"Oh, my." Giles blinks a couple times, trying to process this information. "I need to research this when I get back home. See if there are anything in the books that we have left."

"Actually the coven sent me some information on it today, I just haven't had time to look at it yet. If you would like to borrow it?" Kelly asks.

"Yes, I would love to read the book. Thank you so much. But how powerful are you?" Giles asks questioningly.

Rolling her eyes Kelly takes a deep breath "Ready?" at Giles's nod she opens herself up further than she had to Buffy previously, giving him a bigger taste of her powers while seeing Buffy smirking beside her out of the corner of her eye.

Waving his hands quickly Giles falls back against a tombstone, slowly sliding down it hitting the ground. "Good God!"

"Are you okay Giles?" Buffy asks worriedly, quickly running over to him, kneeling down beside him, with a scared Kelly behind her.

"Yes, yes. I'm quite alright. I just never expected that kind of power." Looking at Kelly in amazement he states "That wasn't all your power, either. Was it?" Shaking her head Kelly half grins.

"Come on Mr. G." Kelly reaches her hand down for Giles. "Let's continue patrol."

"Do either of you have any idea how powerful you might become?" Giles asks questioningly.

"Nope. Don't even know for sure how long it will take before we max out the…sharing." Kelly states with a smile and shrug.

"I'm just curious if I'm going to still be this damn horny after we max it out!" Buffy growls out low in her throat.

Giles, realizing exactly what's going on, and having read a bit about it, shakes his head slightly and then chuckles. "I don't know Buffy. What I remember of the little bit I read about this, I'm actually surprised you two can go a couple hours without, as you put it, jumping each other's bones?"

"It isn't from lack of trying." Buffy grumbles shooting her lover a glare.

"Learn patience, grasshopper." Kelly grins at Buffy. "Anyway, think about it. The more we tease and build up, the bigger the magic blast is when it happens! That one last night! Come on. Wasn't that worth waiting for?" Kelly teases Buffy.

Buffy gets a dazed look on her face as she thinks about it, smiling. "Oh, yeah." She moans deeply, eyes darkening.

Giles coughs, getting Buffy's attention. "Maybe you shouldn't bring up things like that, Kelly. It seems to distract Buffy somewhat." And seems to bother me somewhat, also. He thinks to himself.

Buffy gets close to Giles. "She likes to pounce occasionally, also. She isn't always with the build up." Buffy whispers quietly.

"I heard that." Kelly growls. "So do you want to play with the two that have been following us for the last three blocks, or do you want me to?" Kelly asks grinning.

"I don't know. You might have more frustration built up than me, do you want them?" Buffy asks smirking.

"Share?" Kelly asks.

"Okay!" Buffy spins around to face the vampires behind them at the same time Kelly spins and backhands the one directly behind her, knocking it to the ground.

Giles turns around to watch the two women, literally thrash the vampires in seconds before dusting them. Taking a deep breath he looks at them both and shakes his head. "These vampires don't even test your abilities, do they?"

Both women look at him and shake their heads.

"Have you two sparred with each other yet? Fighting each other to see how fast and strong you actually are?" Giles asks as they continue on patrol.

"Actually, it has crossed my mind." Kelly states hesitantly.

"Well?" Giles asks curious about the hesitant tone.

Buffy giggles. "She figures it'll turn into a major sex-a-thon if we do. And we can't very well do it in the house, we'll break all kinds of furniture…with the fighting, not the sex, even though I guess that's a possibility too." Buffy tilts her head thinking about that. Shaking her head to get back on track. "And the training room at the Magic Box is half filled with stock, so we don't really have the space there. If we are out in public, there's the chance we'll be seen. So, take your pick of the above reasons."

Thinking to himself, Giles chuckles quietly. "Remember where we went for your Slayer vision quest, Buffy?"

"You want to take us out to the desert to fight?" Buffy asks incredulously.

"Well, it would give you two the space you would need and no one else would be around!" Giles states quickly.

Kelly shakes her head "I'll figure something out, you two. It's Christmas time, so it will have to wait till next week. Okay?"

Giles frowns, "What are you thinking?" Kelly just grins slyly at the older gentleman.

"Give it up, Giles. When she gets that look, she won't tell until she's ready to spring it on us." Buffy pouts. "No matter what you do to get her to talk."

"You are more than willing to try, love." Kelly grins at Buffy, who's walking on the other side of Giles. Unconsciously the two women flanked him on either side as protection.

"I think most of the demons are tucked away in bed, hoping Santa will come to visit them." Kelly states. "Hey, CCS, where does Clem live? Want to visit him and see if he would want to do the tattoo for you?"

Giles looks intrigued, "Oh yes, the tattoo, like you have to hide your magic? May I see this tattoo?"

"Sure" Kelly states, unhooking her belt and starting to unbutton her pants when Buffy steps in front of her, stopping her hand.

"I don't think that's such a good idea, Kelly." Buffy states with a roll of her eyes.

"Why not? I'm wearing underwear and I'll just slide it up or down out of the way." Kelly frowns slightly.

"My word. Where exactly is this tattoo, Kelly?" Giles blushes darkly.

"It's on her right hip bone, more or less." Buffy answers. "And I would really prefer you keeping your clothes on around everybody else. I mean, I didn't say anything about the cleavage showing earlier, since I know it's like second nature to you, but can't you at least keep your pants on?" Buffy almost whines. "I don't want everybody else to see your hot bod!"

"Poor baby." Kelly soothes. "I like that you like my body, but not everyone wants it!" Kelly grins slightly, as Buffy buttons her pants back up and fixes her belt.

"Right." Buffy says sarcastically. "You were getting ready to give Giles a free look, when him and my sister were wanting to jump you bones when they met you earlier today. And let's not forget I interrupted Wood making a pass at you! I can't leave you alone for five seconds without someone trying to jump your bones."

"Hey! Willow hasn't tried to jump my bones. Neither has Xander!" Kelly states indignantly.

"No, Willow and Xander both only stared at your breasts like they were dying of thirst and you were offering them an oasis. And since Anya, ANYA! Was more than willing to have a three way with you, Xander I am sure would be more than happy to jump said bones!!" Buffy rants, with her arms waving.

"Okay, I'll give you that. How about Lana? She didn't flirt with me once! The car salesman and manager. Most of the salespeople at the mall! I mean there are tons of people that don't want to jump my bones!" Kelly huffs.

"That's because their dumb asses!" Buffy yells before jumping up on Kelly, kissing her roughly, wrapping her arms and legs around her. Pulling away panting. "If they know the things you do, they would be lining up. Hell, I could probably sell tickets and make a fucking fortune!" Buffy growls before leaning in and kissing her again. Rubbing her body against Kelly.

Grasping Buffy's ass to help support, Kelly grins into the kiss. Knowing Buffy was working herself up to this. She'd smelled Buffy's arousal when she had fought the first Vampire, and the poor slayer was getting very, very frustrated.

"Ladies! LADIES!" Giles had been trying to get their attention for the last couple minutes. Finally, he whacks them both on the back of the head at the same time, making them break apart.

"WHAT?" Buffy yells in annoyance.

"Will you two please stop trying to hump each other in the middle of downtown Sunnydale so we can continue on patrol?" Giles states in disgust, glad that he's wearing a long jacket. Being around these two is going to be rough on everyone. And to be honest, he wasn't sure it would get any better after they had maxed out their magic/power exchange.

Releasing her legs, Buffy slides down Kelly's body mumbling to herself. "Clem lives in the next cemetery. We can stop in and see if he's there."

"Thanks Clem! We'll see you at the house on Wednesday morning, then." Buffy grins, hugging the demon.

Heading out of the crypt Buffy is quickly followed by Giles with Kelly holding back for a second. "Are you doing anything for Christmas?"

"Yes, I'm visiting a friends house tomorrow for dinner. Thanks for asking." Clem states smiling.

"Okay. Here, I want you to get yourself something for Christmas, that you wouldn't normally buy, something you want, okay?" Kelly quickly throws a couple hundred dollars down on the table and quickly follows behind Buffy and Giles before he can say anything.

Shaking his head in disbelief at the woman he looks at the money and quickly puts it in his pocket. She's just too kind.

"What was the hang-up?" Buffy asks when Kelly catches up to them.

"Just wanted to make sure he had somewhere to go tomorrow." Kelly shrugs.

"You're too nice for your own good, you know that?" Buffy states grinning.

"I'm not nice. Occasionally kind, but never nice." Kelly growls menacingly at Buffy with eyes narrowed. Quickly taking on a predators prowl, she starts after Buffy, with a confused Giles watching the two women.

Buffy squeals and runs around one of the mausoleums, while Kelly quickly jumps up on top of it, jumping down to the other side, pouncing on Buffy, picking her up and throwing her over her shoulder, smacking her on the butt repeatedly as she walks back around to walk beside Giles. "You take it back or you'll get more spankings!" Kelly growls. When all she gets is a giggle and the slayer wriggling in her arms, Kelly quickly smacks her a couple more times. "Do you apologize?"

"NEVER!" Buffy screams, laughing.

SMACK! SMACK! SMACK!

"Now?" Kelly growls.

"Nope!" Buffy states wiggling and grinning from ear to ear. 'I like this! I'll have to get her to try that riding crop soon!' Buffy thinks giggling.

Kelly looks to Giles with a raised eyebrow, watching him shake his head and roll his eyes.

"Okay, how about this instead, since you are obviously enjoying getting your ass beat. No sex all weekend long." Kelly tries a different tactic.

"I'm really, really sorry for calling you nice Kelly. You are the absolute meanest person I have ever met, and anyone that thinks you're nice needs their head examined." Buffy quickly states in as sincere a voice as she can manage.

"Personally, I think both of you need your bloody heads examined." Giles states exasperatedly.

"I think Giles may need a good ass whipping, also!" Kelly winks at Buffy, as she sets her down on her feet.

"He may." Buffy looks to Giles as if appraising whether or not his butt needs whipping.

"You wouldn't dare!" Giles eyes widen, seeing equal glints of mischief in the women's eyes.

Kelly and Buffy exchange a look before circling Giles.

"Ladies! I beg you." Giles actually sounds worried.

Buffy giggles first then Kelly chuckles.

"No, we wouldn't, Mr. G. But you sure are fun to get irritated." Kelly states grinning.

"Oh, he makes this clucking sound, I used to see how often I could make him do it when I was in High School." Buffy grins widely.

"Bloody hell! How many other things have you done to get a rise out of me?" Giles angrily asks.

"Oh, come on Giles! Get a humor check! It's funny. Plus I was a teenager with no life! I had to get my fun somehow!" Buffy whines.

"Come on Mr. G. Give it up already, she doesn't know you're yanking her chain! Plus she has me to irritate and be mean to, now. So you're pretty much off the hook" Kelly jokes.

"Damn it! I was always able to make her believe I was irate with her. Now you're telling her that I'm not! That is just not bloody right!" Giles grumbles loudly before doing a half smirk.

Buffy puts her hands on her hips looking at Giles. "You mean to tell me that most of the time when I thought you were really angry at me, you weren't?" Buffy starts pouting. "If I had known…"

"Exactly! If you had know you would have acted up even more! I had to keep you to an even keel on things." Giles grins at Buffy.

"Okay, we've been patrolling for the last three hours. And we've come across three vampires. Is there a hot spot we can hit that has more vamps?" Kelly groans looking around. "Or can we go home so I can help out Miss Horny, over there?"

"Hey, I resemble that remark!" Buffy states outraged. "Like you aren't horny."

"I never said I wasn't, now did I?" Kelly states smirking at the slayer.

"Well, if you had let me follow you up when you dressed, you wouldn't be as horny as you are!" Buffy growls low in her throat.

"Okay, okay, children. Let's go back to the house. Lord, I just hope you're quiet." Giles looks at the two women, and is silently praying that his last statement comes true.

Buffy and Kelly look at each other and look at Giles. "We'll try?" Kelly states it more as a question that she doesn't really think the answer is going to be positive.

"Do you still have the extra cots in the basement?" He asks sighing. "I think I might bunk down there."

I have a spell that will make the room soundproof. Kelly sends mentally to Buffy.

"Giles, don't do that. We'll behave." Buffy states smiling. "Or as much as we can, we'll behave."

"Mr. G, don't worry. We will behave." Kelly grins at the watcher. "My word, you will have a quiet nights sleep tonight."

Smiling in thanks at Kelly, Giles narrows his eyes at Buffy. "No more trying to get my goat on purpose young woman!"

"I can't even pick on you?" Buffy pouts.

Rolling his eyes Giles shakes his head at the young woman, trying not to smile at her antics.

"Mighty Mouse, please behave. Do you really want him to hop the first plane he can get a ticket on back to London?" Kelly winks at Giles. "Please behave. You can do anything to me you want to, to make up for it, okay?"

Buffy's eyes widen and she gets a gigantic grin on her face. "Anything?"

Lowering her head on her chest and closing her eyes Kelly wonders what she has gotten herself into. Sighing loudly Kelly whispers "Anything."

"Oh, yeah!!" Buffy does a little dance and shake of her hips. Looking Kelly up and down, licking her lips before easing up beside her. "The things I'm going to do!"

"Buffy! You better not do anything bad to this young woman! I will never forgive you." Giles frowns slightly at Buffy.

"Don't worry, Giles. She'll be in good hands." Buffy grins evilly at Kelly raising her eyebrows.

Letting out a loud breathe of air, Kelly just shakes her head. "Come on, let's get home. I'm sure I'm not going to get much sleep tonight."

Walking in the door, they all stop in shock. Dawn and Sam had moved the furniture against the walls in the living room and were Indian leg wrestling.

"Now, Dawn. Remember, it doesn't matter how strong or big the other person is, it all boils down centering your body weight. If you have your body weight set properly, you can keep anyone from flipping you over." Sam explains, before laying down and raising her leg for Dawn to hook with hers. "One, Two, Three!"

Both women try pulling the other woman's leg down to flip them over. Both of them shifting their bodies, trying to get the advantage, finally after five minutes Sam starts to laugh and Dawn is able to flip her.

Jumping up off the floor quickly, Dawn dances around, "Finally! Finally I was able to flip you! I am the champion!!!!"

Giles throws his arms up in the air "What is it? Is there something here on the Hellmouth that is making all you people act weirder than usual?" Shaking his head in disgust he just throws out "I'm going to go to bed. Try and be quiet, children," as he stomps up the stairs, to everyone's laughter.

Kelly grins at Dawn "Did either one of you get a cot upstairs yet?" When Dawn and Sam looked at each other Kelly shakes her head. "I'll go get it and bring it up."

Buffy laughs before turning to Kelly. "Did you see them down in the basement?" At Kelly's nod she smiles. "I'll go get the sheets and a pillow."

Dawn and Sam look at each smiling. "I guess we probably should put the furniture back, huh?" Dawn asks Sam as Buffy and Kelly leave the living room.

"Yeah. What time is it anyway?" Sam asks, shifting the coffee table back in place before helping Dawn shift the chair.

"Hmm. 11:30" Dawn states grinning. "It's still relatively early. But it is Christmas Eve and Buffy will probably want to go to bed early." At this Dawn rolls her eyes.

"Hey, you two. Are you going to stay up?" Kelly asks as she comes in carrying the cot.

"Don't know. I am kind of tired. Been a long couple days." Sam states, looking apologetically at Dawn.

Shrugging her shoulders Dawn just states "I'm a college student. We don't sleep, we go to classes, we study and we party all night. Breaks are for us to catch up on our sleep. So I'm there."

"Great, everyone in this house will probably be getting sleep, but me!" Kelly grumbles carrying the cot up the stairs.

"You aren't the only one getting no sleep tonight" Buffy grins. "I plan on being awake the whole time, also!"

"Will you let me get at least three hours sleep?" Kelly begs of Buffy.

"We'll see. What time do you need to get up in the morning?" Buffy questions.

"I need to fix the green bean casserole which with fixing it and baking it will take roughly 45 minutes to an hour. I'm making a big one, so it will take a little longer. We've got some presents to take with us, the pies and rolls. Tara said she thought if everyone got there by 11:00 am we would be able to open gifts before having dinner at 1:00." Stopping and thinking, Kelly continues "We've got five people that will probably be wanting to shower in the morning" Grinning at Buffy "Two that will definitely need a shower, unless we take one before actually going to sleep?"

Buffy thinks for a moment. "That will help spread out the hot water. So what time will you need to get up and do everything, bottom line?"

"If I'm figuring properly, 9:00 will be good." Kelly grins. "So if you let me get to sleep by 6:00 I'll be happy."

"Hmm." They finish setting up the cot for Sam before heading back downstairs. "I might be able to do that."

Stopping part way down the stairs both women hear Dawn and Sam arguing about Disney cartoons. Looking at each other they both shake their heads.

Leaning in and whispering in Buffy's ear, Kelly goes "Wouldn't it be weird if Sam and Dawn hooked up?"

Buffy started to choke and turned to look at Kelly "Don't even joke about that! What a sick little thing we would have, me and Riley, you and Sam, Riley and Sam, you and me, Dawn and Sam, if we had someone for Riley to hook up with, it would be almost complete."

Kelly's eyes widen and she starts to turn red.

"What?" Buffy asks.

Shaking her head vehemently Kelly's eyes stay wide.

"Damn it, Kelly! What are you thinking?" Buffy hisses.

Kelly lets out one choked word "Giles."

"NOOOO!!" Buffy closes her eyes and pushes her palms to either side of her head.

Sam and Dawn come running to the bottom of the stairs. "Buffy, are you okay?" Dawn asked worriedly.

Buffy moves her hands to her eyes, rubbing hard whining "Get it out of my head!! Please get the pictures out of my head!!"

Pulling Buffy in tight against her, Kelly tries to hold in the laughter. "Dawn, she's fine. I promise. It's my fault."

"What did you do to her?" Sam questions.

Buffy shakes her head against Kelly's chest mumbling "You do NOT want to know!! Can someone please wash these images out of my brain!!!"

"I'm sorry, babe." Kelly mumbles holding Buffy tight, kissing the top of her head, holding back a smile. "We got the cot all set up for you, Sam. If you decide the couch would be more comfortable, we can get you set up there tomorrow, okay?"

"Thanks, Kel. Dawn, are you ready for bed, or were you going to stay up longer?" Sam asks.

"I'll go ahead and shut everything off and head up with you. Hopefully we'll get a decent nights sleep." Dawn looks pointedly at Buffy and Kelly.

"I already promised Mr. G we would be on our best behavior." Kelly smirks knowingly at Dawn.

"Yeah, like that's going to happen." Dawn rolls her eyes. "I'll check and make sure everything's locked while I turn the lights and stuff off."

"Thanks Dawn." Kelly smiles appreciatively to Dawn, while still holding a moaning slayer that is now banging her head against Kelly's chest.

Dawn frowns watching her sister bang her head against Kelly. "Doesn't that hurt? I mean, it looks like she's banging you pretty hard!"

"Hmm?" Kelly looks down at Buffy, seeing that Buffy actually is banging pretty hard against her and if she'd been her normal self, she would probably have a cracked clavicle right now. "It isn't as hard as it looks. Goodnight you two." Reaching down with her hands, Kelly cups the slayer by the butt cheeks, lifting her up, so she can wrap her arms and legs around her. "Let's go to bed baby. You can do all sorts of mean nasty things to me to take your mind off the images, okay?"

"Promise?" Buffy mumbles into Kelly's neck.

"I promise. Absolutely anything you want." Kelly whispers walking into their bedroom and shutting the door, turning the lock. "Hey, why don't you unhook your legs and get ready for bed? I need to do that spell, so everyone else can get some sleep. I think I can work a spell to keep the magic to the room, also."

"Okay." Buffy lets go and let's herself be lowered to the floor. Slowly undressing watching Kelly sit down on the floor and close her eyes, Buffy smiles. 'You really are a wonderful person. You probably would let me do anything I wanted to you, wouldn't you?' Buffy thinks as she finishes undressing and quickly pulling the covers down to the end of the bed. Quickly heading to the toy box, she starts looking through it. Grabbing a couple different lubes, she sets them on the nightstand. 'I really want to use that monster on her. I mean, really! I think I might save that for later.' Grabbing a harness and one of the smaller sized flesh dildo's Buffy looks at it speculatively before switching it to a bigger one. 'That's for me. Now what do I want to use on Kelly?' Turning to look at Kelly, she sees her sitting there watching her.

"What are you in the mood for?" Buffy asks huskily.

"That wasn't for me?" Kelly asks, gesturing to the set-up Buffy had already grabbed out.

"No. For you to wear, yes." Buffy smiles slightly.

"Cover your ears, okay?" Kelly asks watching Buffy frown, but cover her ears. "GILES!! DAWN!! SAM!! LARVO DEMON IN THE HOUSE!!" Kelly screams at the top of her lungs. Waiting a couple minute and not hearing anything, besides the snoring coming from Buffy's room and Dawn and Sam talking as they get ready for bed.

Buffy laughs hysterically. "I guess that means it worked? Couldn't you think of something else to do?"

"I figured that would definitely get Giles and Sam moving, if they heard. Dawn would follow them." Shrugging Kelly smiles crookedly at the Slayer. "We can't walk out of the room, if we do it breaks the spell, okay?" Pulling her legs up, wrapping her arms around them and resting her chin on her knees, Kelly watches Buffy intently.

"What are you doing?" Buffy asks glancing over at her lover, while she's trying to figure out what to use on Kelly.

"Watching you." Kelly states. "I love you, Miss Buffy Anne Summers." Standing up and walking over to Buffy, Kelly reaches into one of her pockets and pulls out a jewelers box. "Here." She quietly states, handing the box to Buffy.

"Kelly?" Buffy questions looking from the box to Kelly.

"Open it." Kelly smiles lovingly at Buffy.

Buffy opens the box slowly, closing her eyes she shakes her head in disbelief before opening them again to look at the beautiful platinum ring sitting inside. It's a platinum band with diamonds and emeralds alternating all the way round. "Why emeralds?"

"My birthstone." Kelly states quietly. "Do you like it?"

Looking up at her lover, seeing the worry she smiles, nodding her head. Eyes tearing up slightly Buffy touches it, lightly running a fingertip over it. "It's lovely, just like you."

Reaching in to take it out of the box, Kelly holds out her hand for Buffy's hand. Slowly sliding it on her ring finger, it's a perfect fit. Leaning down and kissing the ring and finger, Kelly says a few words so quietly that Buffy can't make them out. "What did you say?" Buffy asks as Kelly pulls away, lightly rubbing her thumb over the ring.

"I had put a protection spell on the ring, but didn't finish the last few words of it, until I knew for sure you liked it and it fit properly. You don't have to take it off for patrol, or ever if you don't want. Nothing will happen to it. You won't even be able to damage it yourself." Kelly grins at Buffy.

Buffy smiles in appreciation at her lover and looks back down at the ring. "Come here so I can give you a proper thanks." Buffy asks huskily, reaching up and grabbing Kelly behind the neck, pulling her down into a long, slow, deep kiss. A few minutes later, they both pull back, panting slightly. "Now I feel all mushy inside, I don't think that's going to work." Buffy states waving her hand over to the harness. "I just want you."

Kelly smiles slightly. "We can save the toys for tomorrow night?" At Buffy's nod, Kelly quickly throws the harness and dildo back in the box, before triggering a hidden compartment, pulling a box out. Kelly grins mischievously at Buffy. "This is one of your Christmas presents that you get now, instead of at the witch's house." Handing the box to Buffy, Kelly closes the toy box, and sits down on the edge of the bed, watching Buffy.

Looking at Kelly, Buffy shakes her head. Slowly opening the box, she moves the tissue paper out of the way and inhales sharply. Inside were a pair of matching short swords, that matched perfectly to Kelly's Katana. "Kelly, these match your sword." Buffy whispers.

"Yes. I didn't tell you everything. The Japanese gentleman actually sort of honorarily adopted me. I saved his life while I was supposed to be sleeping, but instead was tracking a demon. I helped him home and bandaged his wounds." Thinking back, Kelly smiles softly. "He insisted on getting my name and information. The next day he contacted my superiors, telling them I had saved his life, and how he wished to repay me. I didn't know at the time that he was owner of one of Japans biggest company's. It turned into this whole big thing, with the Vice President showing up, all my superiors, I had to be in dress uniform and everything. I didn't know what was going on. He planned this huge ceremony, where he presented me with his family Katana and those two short swords. He adopted me on the spot." Frowning Kelly turns sad for a moment. "He died of cancer two years ago. When he was told he was dying, he sold his company just keeping a decent amount of shares and everything he owned in Japan, and moved here to the States, so he could be closer to his one family member. A month later, he passed away." Silently tears started rolling down her face.

Buffy by this time, was kneeling in front of Kelly and was gently rubbing her arms. Staying quiet so she can get the story out.

"He gave me everything he had earned over the years. That man that I knew for roughly four years, was more of a father to me than Maclay Sr ever was. I have often thought of changing my name to Hiroshoma, my adopted father's name. But he wouldn't let me while he was alive. He said things happen for a reason." Smiling slightly, Kelly reaches out and runs her hands through Buffy's hair. "He is probably the only man I have ever really truly loved."

"I'm sorry Kelly." Buffy states quietly, reaching up to gently rub the tears from her face. "Does anyone else know this?"

"My friends don't. The government does, I had to pull some strings to have him be able to come to the US. They have copies of all the legal documents of where he gave all his money. They needed to know where the money came from, so I wouldn't be thought of as a spy or traitor." Kelly snorts at that.

"So, when you said you were rich…" Buffy trails off in wonder.

"I'm filthy stinking rich. Buffy, to let you know…" Kelly shakes her head. "Here, let me get up."

Buffy shifts and watches Kelly move to her dresser, pulling one drawer completely out she pulls a packet off the bottom that was taped there.

"I got this Wednesday. Please, don't be mad at me." Kelly whispers, handing her the packet.

Buffy frowns looking from the packet in her hand up to Kelly. Slowly opening the packet, wondering what she's going to find, Buffy stares in shock. "You paid off the mortgage on the house? How?"

Kelly looks down. "Yes, I went to the bank and paid it off. I made them do the paperwork then, so I could have it to give to you. I kind of also paid for the rest of Dawn's education, so you won't have to take out the second mortgage you were planning on."

"How did you know?" Buffy asks wonderingly.

"I was looking for a pen to write with and came across the paperwork in the desk, along with your notes of how you were trying to swing everything." Looking up Kelly whispers. "Are you mad at me?"

Dropping the papers on the floor, Buffy wipes her hands down her face. Realizing she's sitting their naked and Kelly still has all her clothes on, and they're discussing mortgages, education, dead adopted father, and what was probably a woman worth literally millions of dollars, Buffy giggles.

"Buffy, are you okay?" Kelly asks worriedly.

"Is there anything else huge you want to tell me? I mean we might as well get it out tonight, if there is. And no, I'm not mad. Just kind of stunned." Buffy looks at Kelly and shakes her head slightly. "Do I even want to know how much money you have?" Buffy asks.

"There's nothing else huge. Those are the big things." Kelly smiles in relief that Buffy was taking it so well. "And we are worth roughly a billion dollars." Kelly states.

Buffy turns pale looking at Kelly. "I had to mishear you. You didn't just say a BILLION dollars, did you?"

"Yes I did." Kelly nods her head. "I can't give you an exact amount. It changes hourly, with all the stocks, shares and investments I have out there."

"I can't believe you are worth that much money!" Buffy states in disbelief.

"Buffy, I think you missed a very important word in that statement. I said 'WE are worth roughly a billion dollars.'" Kelly states again.

"What?" Buffy asks, dumbfounded.

"Here." Reaching down and grabbing the paperwork that Buffy had dropped on the floor, Kelly hands it to her again, grabbing another sheet and putting it on top. "Your name is on everything I own. Everything that is mine, is yours. I deposited two million dollars in your bank account today, while I was out. That is yours to do with as you want. If you want to spend it all on shoes, go for it, if you want to donate it to the society for blind, deaf horses that are over the age of 50, go for it. I have another checkbook that is a joint checking account, that you can use to buy anything and everything you want. Pay the bills, everything. Okay?"

Flopping back onto the bed Buffy just stares up at the ceiling. All these years, she's scraped by, barely able to make ends meet, robbing Peter to pay Paul. Then out of nowhere, Kelly shows up, boom, everything magically gets better. Reaching down, Buffy pinches herself hard enough to bruise on her thigh. Yelping at the pain she looks and Kelly is still sitting there beside her, but now she's frowning. "I'm not dreaming, am I?" Buffy questions.

Shaking her head Kelly continues to watch her worried.

"You aren't going to disappear on me, or leave me, right?" At another shake of the head Buffy starts smiling. "Then you are overdressed." Buffy grabs the papers, slides them and the envelope on the dresser before coming to stand in front of Kelly. Kneeling down, she quickly unlaces her boots, sliding them off and pulling off her socks.

"Does this mean I'm getting laid?" Kelly starts to smile.

Looking up at Kelly with love in her eyes Buffy grins. "You are SO getting laid. One more question, does Tara know?"

Kelly shakes her head. "I paid off their house and deposited money in their bank account today, also. The paperwork for the house won't show up till next week, though. I want to buy Anya and Xander a place, but I figured I would wait till after Christmas and let them know to pick out a house." Smiling slightly Kelly looks down "There is actually a house a street over that is five bedrooms, has a huge garage and yard. I put a retainer down on it. I think it would be perfect for them, especially when they decide to have children." Kelly didn't say anything, but she sensed that Anya was already pregnant, but assumed they were waiting for Christmas to announce it.

"What am I going to do with you?" Buffy questions.

"Love me." Kelly smiles. "That's all I want or need."

"Stand up." Buffy whispers. Quickly unfastening Kelly's pants, she pulls them down slowly, along with her panties and when Kelly steps out of them, she throws them in the corner behind her. Standing up, Buffy reaches and starts unbuttoning Kelly's shirt. Looking up she sees a smirk on Kelly's face. "What are you smirking at?" Buffy questions.

Shaking her head Kelly just continues to smirk down at Buffy. As Buffy finishes unbuttoning Kelly's shirt, she runs her hands under the fabric at Kelly's shoulders to push it off and down her arms when she stops in stunned surprise. "Kelly?" She squeaks out. With a shaking finger, she reaches out to touch the new tattoo that is over Kelly's heart. Lightly running her fingers over it she looks up at Kelly. "What all did you do today in the few hours you were gone?"

"You pretty much know the majority of it. Do you like?" Kelly whispers huskily.

"Yes." Buffy runs her fingers over the letter's spelling out her name Buffy's in an arch with a stake being the exclamation point, slightly piercing the blood red heart under it. Looking closely, Buffy sees written in the heart in a slightly darker ink 'Property of Buffy Summers'.

"It belongs to you. Forever." Kelly whispers, leaning down, kissing Buffy gently.

Whimpering into the soft kiss Buffy wraps her arms around Kelly, hugging her tightly. "I want a matching one." Buffy states quietly.

"What? You want a heart that say Property of Buffy Summers in it?" Kelly jokes lightly.

Shaking her head Buffy murmurs, "You know what I mean." Buffy presses a firm kiss to her heart. Smiling slightly, she runs her tongue over the heart, whispering "Mine."

Groaning lightly Kelly nods her head, lightly running her hands up and down Buffy's back.

"Aren't I still a little overdressed?" Kelly hoarsely asks.

"Why, yes you are." Buffy grins, reaching behind Kelly quickly unhooking her bra, before sliding it down and off, stopping at the other surprise. Looking up quickly at Kelly's eyes she looks back down at two matching nipple rings. Buffy starts to reach out to the newest addition but stops short.

"Go ahead Buffy. It isn't sore. Seems that Slayer healing works wonders for piercing's too." Kelly growls lightly into Buffy's ear.

Melting inside at Kelly's growl and the fact that she is looking at matching nipples Buffy groans loudly. "But I only have one mouth to use at a time on these!"

Chuckling Kelly whispers "Yes, but you have slayer speed. Plus, you might be able to squeeze them close enough together?"

"Right now, I want to make long, slow love to you all night." Buffy whispers. "Can I?"

"Always, my love." Kelly whispers back, kissing Buffy gently before slowly moving back onto the bed and lying down on her back, watching Buffy with passion filled eyes.

Climbing into bed and lying down beside Kelly, Buffy props herself up on an elbow looking at her lover. Slowly running a hand down Kelly's cheek and along her jaw, before following it down her neck and over her shoulder. Leaning in and kissing the shoulder lightly, Buffy pulls away to let her hand travel lightly over Kelly's upper chest, lightly following the outline of her new tattoo. Circling one breast for a few moments, without coming into contact with her nipple, Buffy switches to the other breast, lightly touching, running her fingers under the weight of the breast where it met the rib cage. Smiling at the low moan coming from Kelly as she runs her fingers over that sensitive area, Buffy leans over to suck the nipple gently into her mouth, bathing it with her tongue, while lightly rolling the other nipple between her fingers and thumb. Gently grasping the new nipple ring between her thumb and index finger, Buffy gives it a slight tug while playing with the other one in her mouth before grasping it with her teeth, tugging up insistently, making Kelly groan louder and grasp the bed sheets on either side of her body. Buffy smiles, as Kelly arches up into the touches.

Releasing the nipples, Buffy slowly eases further down Kelly's body. Running her hand and tongue over Kelly's abdomen, smiling at the fluttering muscles and the moans escaping from Kelly. Flicking her tongue repeatedly into Kelly's belly button Buffy giggles. Pulling up slightly to look at Kelly she grins.

"What are you grinning at?" Kelly asks in a sex roughened voice.

"I'm surprised you didn't get your belly button pierced, while you were at it. We could buy you some crop tops, show off this sexy, muscular stomach and have a nice shiny belly button piercing to enhance it. What do you think?" Buffy grins before leaning back down sucking on the before mentioned body part, making Kelly arch up and rotate her hips slightly.

"I will, if you will." Kelly groans out.

"Hmmm. It's a date, next week." Buffy growls lightly before licking her way further down Kelly's abdomen, smelling the arousal coming off Kelly in waves. "God you smell wonderful." Inhaling deeply, Buffy smiles "Not as good as you taste though." Looking down at the juices glistening on Kelly's mound and her swollen sex Buffy leans down, placing a light kiss on her mound.

Looking up and grinning sexily at Kelly, Buffy shifts her body to lay between Kelly's thighs. Gently pushing them a little further apart. Laying her head down on one thigh, Buffy lightly traces her fingers down the wet outer lips keeping contact, but not letting them ease to the inner lips as Kelly's hips buck up, looking for firmer contact.

"Buffy! Please!" Kelly groans out.

Kissing the thigh under her head, Buffy watches as her fingers gently ease between Kelly's outer lips. Closing her eyes at the warmth and flood of fluid that escapes Kelly, Buffy growls low and deep. Running her fingers through the wetness, Buffy slowly raises them to her mouth, looking up to Kelly, slowly easing two fingers in and sucking the juices from them, making Kelly's eyes darken and hearing her moan, Buffy smiles slightly, before looking back down at Kelly's swollen sex.

"My God, Kelly. You are so wet" Buffy moans, running her fingers up and down her sex, gently spreading her inner lips, and pushing two fingers easily inside Kelly. Pulling back out, Buffy switches it to four fingers, easing in and out of Kelly gently in rhythm with Kelly's rocking hips. Buffy swallows hard. 'There is just something so sexy about watching this. Watching me slowly ease in and out, seeing her clit, so swollen and flushed with blood, just aching to be touched, licked, sucked on.' Buffy thinks to herself, feeling her own juices escaping and running down onto the sheets under her. Pushing her lower body against the mattress under her, Buffy tries to get some relief for her own aching body.

Feeling Buffy's rocking, knowing she's aching as much as herself, Kelly groans out, "Swing around."

Buffy glances up with a confused look.

"I think it should work out, even with the height difference." Kelly groans, still rocking her lower body against Buffy's hand. "I want to taste you, please." Kelly pants out.

Realizing, finally what Kelly is saying, she frowns first, wondering if they can, then deciding what the hell, only one way to find out. Easing out of Kelly, Buffy climbs up to kiss Kelly first before shifting her body around, straddling Kelly's head before easing down, reaching inside Kelly, stroking, feeling for that sweet spot and searching for her clit from the different angle, quickly find and sucking it in her mouth, making Kelly groan and buck.

Grasping Buffy's ass, Kelly tugs her down to her mouth, quickly licking and sucking up all the juices flowing from Buffy, before flicking her clit with her tongue. 'Oh yeah, so possible.' Kelly thinks before quickly latching onto Buffy's swollen nub, alternately licking and sucking while reaching with two long fingers, easing them between her folds, quickly penetrating the slayers body. Finding a quick easy rhythm, Kelly flicks her tongue over Buffy's clit as her fingers stroke over the g-spot inside Buffy, quickly making Buffy rock harder.

Buffy quickly imitates what Kelly's doing as they both buck harder and faster against each other, feeling the build up in their bodies. Quickly tucking her thumb in, Buffy slides her whole hand home, making Kelly arch up hard against her in orgasm. Buffy screams out as she feels Kelly suck down hard on her clit, and quickly push a third finger in her, making her climax instantly. Bodies riding out the wave of pleasure keep rocking and clenching for long moments afterwards. Finally hips start to slow down, hands and fingers slow and stop, gentle kisses placed against aching, spasming nubs.

Slowly easing her fingers out of Buffy, Kelly places another light kiss against the still spasming clit in front of her, smiling slightly as Buffy presses down into the caress. Moaning loudly, as Buffy slowly eases her hand out, Kelly turns her head to nip lightly at the leg beside her.

Buffy eases herself around, to literally collapse on top of Kelly, her head resting between her breasts. Sighing lightly when she feels Kelly's hand lightly running up and down her back. "I love you."

"I love you to, babe. Merry Christmas." Kelly whispers, wrapping her arms around Buffy and hugging her tight.

Looking over at the clock, Kelly smiles. Early night. It's only four in the morning, and if she takes a shower now, she might actually get four hours sleep.

"Honey, let's go take a quick shower and get some sleep, okay?" Feeling Buffy nod her head against her in agreement, but not move, makes Kelly laugh.

"Are you going to get up?" Buffy shakes her head no. "Am I going to have to carry you to the bathroom." A nod. "You are spoiled." Another nod. Exhaling loudly, Kelly holds on tight to Buffy before easing her body to the side of the bed and swinging her legs over the edge, leaning up, grasping Buffy to her as she stands up, smiling as Buffy wraps her legs around her, Kelly shifts her body up slightly and Buffy buries her face in her neck.

Grinning evilly, Kelly quickly walks to the door and strides to the bathroom with both of them naked as the day they were born, making Buffy squeak in protest, but keeping quiet so she doesn't inadvertently wake everybody up.

Shutting the door behind them, Kelly grins as Buffy quickly untangles herself and stands on the floor, with her hands on her hips with a blush on her face. "What if someone had seem us?" She hisses quietly at Kelly.

Shrugging her shoulders, Kelly turns to the shower, turning the faucets on, waiting for the water to warm up before switching to the shower. Turning back to look at Buffy, Kelly grins. "Buffy, I would assume everyone in this house has seen a naked woman before. I don't think it would be that big of a deal, it isn't like we were actually having sex on our way here. Now If I had you up on my shoulders with my face buried in your sex while I was carrying you here, that would be different."

Eyes widening at the thought, Buffy blushes even redder.

"Or maybe you hanging upside down, with your arms wrapped around my waist, our faces buried in each others sex at the same time? Now that would be a good one for a reaction." Kelly grins wickedly. "Want to try it sometime to see what will happen?" Kelly grunts loudly as Buffy smacks her hard in the stomach. "Maybe not." Kelly wheezes slightly, rubbing the spot. "Shower time."

Shaking her head in disbelief Buffy smiles when Kelly can't see her. 'That would almost be worth the embarrassment to see the look on Giles' face! But best not to encourage her.' Buffy thinks before climbing in the shower with her lover. Watching Kelly quickly wash her hair and body Buffy grins. "You don't waste time with showering, do you?"

Turning around to look at Buffy, running her hands over her body to quickly clean herself Kelly grins. "No. I can shower and get dressed in five minutes flat. Before the extra speed I have now."

Watching Kelly run her soap covered hands over her breasts and down her stomach, she sees the red hand print on Kelly's stomach, where she had smacked her. Frowning she quickly looks back up to Kelly. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to hit you that hard." Reaching out to run her fingertips over the spot, Buffy feels the heat coming from it and frowns harder.

"Buffy, it's okay. You didn't hurt anything. Just a good strong tingle sensation going on. Come on, let's get you cleaned up so we can go back to bed and curl up and sleep for a few hours." Kelly smiles winningly at Buffy before running her soapy hands over Buffy's shoulders and down her arms.

"Okay, but no playing!" Buffy warns. "I promised you at least three hours sleep and you definitely will get it."

"Take all my fun away." Kelly grumbles lightly. Quickly helping Buffy wash her body, Kelly takes a quick moment to place a kiss against the delectable ass in front of her face, as she runs her hands up and down Buffy's legs, washing them.

"Kelly" Buffy warns.

"It was just a little kiss. I can't ignore it, you know I have an ass fetish." Buffy moans at Kelly's teasing.

Rinsing the soap off each other, they step out of the shower to dry each other before wrapping up in towels and heading back to their room. Buffy brushes her hair quickly, watching Kelly just run the towel over hers a few times before taking a small brush, running it through quickly and climbing into bed.

Watching Buffy brush her hair Kelly smiles. Seeing her breasts jiggle slightly, Kelly feels the desire starting to build up again. Closing her eyes, Kelly plops down and throws her arm across her eyes to keep herself in check.

Smiling Buffy saw where Kelly's eyes had drifted and saw them darken with want before Kelly flopped over and threw her arm across her face. Shaking her head, Buffy turns out the light, grabbing up the covers, pulling them up before climbing to lay on top of Kelly. Wiggling slightly, until Kelly spreads her legs a little more, Buffy slides one thigh between her legs and tangles them together, before burying her face in Kelly's neck, kissing it lightly, whispering "I love you." As Kelly wraps her up holding her tight.

"I love you, too." Kelly whispers squeezing her a little before sighing and slowly easing into sleep.

Slowly coming back to consciousness a couple hours later, Buffy looks at the clock. 'It's only 7 am, why am I awake.' She thinks before snuggling back down to go back to sleep. Hearing the knock on her door she groans. 'That explains why I woke up.' Easing off Kelly, to her mumbled displeasure, Buffy makes sure she's covered with the sheet before grabbing up the robe and answering the door as she's tying the sash.

"Giles, what do you want?" Buffy hisses quietly, rubbing her eyes.

"You're still in bed?" Giles questions.

"Well, yeah. We didn't get to sleep till a couple hours ago, Giles! Give me a break. Plus I promised Kelly she would get a minimum of three hours sleep tonight or this morning, whatever! Now, please go away." Buffy turns to go back in the bedroom, but Giles stops her with a hand on her arm.

"I am sorry, Buffy. But can I ask a favor? Would you be so kind as to get that book from the coven, so that I can read it?" Giles asks apologetically.

Rolling her eyes and grumbling about researching on Christmas morning being a load of shit, she turns away, leaving the door open to go to their toy box, opening it to find the package she had thrown in their yesterday morning.

Kelly, wakes up to the noise and calls out in a hoarse voice, just awake enough to realize Buffy's not in bed. "Buffy. Get your ass back in bed, we can play all you want tonight. You promised me at least three hours sleep!"

Giles closes his eyes and whispers "Dear Lord."

Making Kelly wake up a little more and shift in the bed to look towards the door where Giles is standing. Not paying attention to the fact the sheet has pooled down around her lap she waves at Giles "Morning Mr. G."

Giles' eyes of their on volition turn towards Kelly and he literally squeaks and turns around yelling over his shoulder "Never mind! I'll get it later." As he literally runs down the stairs.

Buffy's standing at the end of the bed with the package in her hand looking from her lover to the now empty doorway. "Serves tweed boy right." Buffy mumbles under her breath, setting the box back down before walking to the door and shutting it looking at a still half asleep Kelly wiping her eyes. Untying her robe and letting it drop to the floor, Buffy crawls back into bed, pushing Kelly onto her back before snuggling back on top of her lover.

Humming in pleasure at her baby back on her. Kelly falls back asleep within seconds. Buffy giggles slightly before closing her eyes and following Kelly back into slumber land.

Dawn and Sam both snap awake at hearing Giles yell. "What the hell was that?" Dawn asks, running her hand down her face before looking over at a giggling Sam Finn. "And why are you giggling?"

"Well, that was a deep voice, and since Giles is the only male in this house, I would assume it was him. And if I would hazard a guess, he might have got an eyeful of one sort or another this morning." Sam laughs slightly.

Dawn shakes her head in confusion, then realizing what Sam's saying she starts grinning. "Do you think?"

Nodding her head Sam grins hugely.

Hopping out of the bed, Dawn grabs her robe to cover her tank top and shorts that she wore to bed. "I have got to see his face. It'll tell us for sure."

"Wait for me!" Sam grumbles grabbing a pair of jeans to pull over her panties and a t-shirt, quickly following the young woman downstairs.

Both of them come to a screeching halt in the kitchen doorway, seeing an extremely red faced Giles mumbling to himself as he quickly fixes himself a cup of tea, while rubbing his face repeatedly.

Looking at each other they smile knowingly. Dawn walks in stating "Good morning Giles, how are you doing?"

Jumping Giles quickly turns around looking at first Dawn's grinning face to Sam's smirk. Rolling his eyes he just sits down hard on one of the stools at the island. Laying his head down on his arms he shakes his head. "I am too old for this." He grumbles quietly.

They both start to laugh looking at the watcher. "Yep, definitely got an eyeful of some sort this morning. I'm laying odds it was Kelly." Sam states with a huge grin. "Even on a good day, Kelly is not modest in the least."

"Don't I know it!" Giles growls under his breathe lifting his head up. "Last night she was going to…" Trailing off realizing what he is about to say he blushes again and shakes his head. "The pheromones in this house have addled my brain!" He gets up to make his tea after hearing the kettle kick off.

Dawn smirks "I'm sure that's not all!"

Just waving his hand at the teenager, he sits down to sip his tea. Deciding it was easier to just act like nothing had happened.

Sam looks at Giles and shrugs her shoulders. Turning to look at Dawn she states "Looks like the funs over. I guess I'll take a quick shower and get cleaned up. Oooh, I think I'll make coffee first, that way it'll brew while I'm showering." Sam quickly finds the grinder and coffee grounds that Kelly bought and starts a fresh pot of strong coffee, knowing the smell would probably work its way upstairs and wake the woman up.

Smelling coffee, Kelly slowly regains consciousness. Inhaling deeply and smiling, she wakes up more before starting to frown slightly. "Buffy, honey? Wake up." Kelly asks hoarsely.

"What? We can sleep for a little longer it's only 8:00." Buffy mumbles looking at the clock before snuggling back down.

"Well, I smell coffee and I'm awake now. But, is it my imagination or was Giles in here this morning?" Kelly questions.

Starting to giggle Buffy nods her head, before kissing Kelly's neck. "Yes, and you flashed him and he ran away screaming." Buffy starts to laugh.

"I flashed him? On purpose?" Kelly frowns trying to remember.

"Actually in your defense, you were still mostly asleep and just leaned over the bed and said hi to him with the sheet around your waist. So, he got a good look at…these!" Buffy slides off to cup Kelly's breasts in her hands, before squeezing them lightly.

"And they scared him so bad he ran away screaming? Good for my confidence." Kelly grumbles then stops and thinks. "Why was he in here?"

Laughing slightly harder Buffy leans down and brushes her lips over Kelly's before standing up to get dressed, explaining exactly what happened this morning, almost word for word.

"He needs to get a life." Kelly snorts out in laughter. Quickly dressing in a tank top and jeans, Kelly grabs the package, quickly opening it and pulling the book out. "We really do need to find a woman for him." Grinning slightly she asks Buffy "Does he have anything against werewolves? We could try and hook him up with Lana, that should loosen him up some!"

Buffy literally falls over onto the floor laughing at that idea. "Could you imagine?"

Kelly smiles down at her lover. "Come on, babe. Let's go see what color your watcher is now." Kelly reaches down and helps Buffy to her feet, pulling her in for a quick kiss.

"I'm more curious if he'll be able to meet your eyes." Buffy smirks slightly. "Hell, he may not be able to meet either one of our eyes."

"We could tell him it could have been worse. Tell him if he had come out into the hallway at 4 this morning he would have really gotten an eyeful." Kelly winks at Buffy.

Heading downstairs, they find Giles sitting in the kitchen on a stool, reading the paper. Looking to Buffy, Kelly winks.

"Hey Mr. G. See anything good?" Kelly grins as he looks up quickly with wide eyes and a face turning red. Waving to the paper Kelly tilts her head "Do you see anything good in there?" Hearing Buffy quietly snort behind her Kelly turns to her lover "What's the matter babe?"

"Oh, nothing. Nothing at all!" Buffy bites her lip to keep from grinning and looks at Giles who is, of course wiping his glasses.

"Here, I think you were looking for this?" Kelly grins, handing him the book before going to grab a cup of coffee. Hearing him sputter behind her, she starts laughing. "You know, Mr. G. Since I was still pretty much asleep this morning, I missed the look on your face. But Buffy said something about your running away screaming. I didn't think I looked that bad!" Kelly grins, handing a coffee cup to Buffy.

"Dear Lord!" Giles groans and bangs his head slightly against the table. "You two are going to be the death of me. I believe I may need to see a doctor to make sure that my poor old heart can handle this!"

"Giles, no harm no foul. You really shouldn't let something like that bother you." Kelly shrugs looking at Buffy, who's grinning from ear to ear. "Plus it was entertaining to Buffy, obviously."

Giles quickly looks up at a grinning Buffy and shakes his head before starting to smirk slightly "Well, I would say she has something to grin about, if I say so myself."

Buffy's eyes widen as she looks at Giles. Kelly laughs and lightly grasps his shoulder "Now, there you go. If you can't beat 'em, join 'em!!"

Dawn and Sam who had come back down were standing their watching before Dawn pipes up "This is all fine and dandy, but Sam and I want to know exactly what happened this morning!"

Giles blushes lightly before looking up at Kelly with a slight smirk. Waving towards her breasts, he states "I got a free show."

Sam giggles and Dawn looks around the room and frowns. "You mean to tell me that everyone but me have seen her breasts? Somehow I'm feeling left out." Dawn pouts.

"Okay." Kelly starts to pull up her tank top, until Buffy yells. "What? You don't want her to feel left out on Christmas morning, do you?" Kelly questions innocently.

Shaking her head Buffy looks at Kelly then everyone else. "There is just something so wrong about this. I mean shouldn't I get mad that my watcher got a good eyeful of my lover's breasts? And you, Miss Flash everyone, can you try to keep your clothes on? Seeing accidentally is one thing, but flashing people? PLEASE!"

Sighing dramatically Dawn looks at Buffy "That really isn't fair, Buff. I mean everyone else has seen them, but me. What would it hurt? Besides, look… Hey, what's that on your chest?" Dawn asks moving closer. "Cool, she has a tattoo."

Sam sees what Dawn's talking about and grins "That's new! What'd you get?"

Both of the women walk over to look at the tattoo and they both start laughing and turn to look at Buffy. "Got her marked as yours, huh?" Sam asks.

Giles can't stand it and turns around to look and he smirks up at Kelly. "When is Buffy going to get one to match, stating she's yours?"

"Next week." Buffy growls out before Kelly can say anything. "While I'm getting it done, she's going to get her belly button pierced."

Raising her eyebrow Kelly smirks at Buffy. "I am, am I?"

"Yes. We discussed it last night, and that's what I decided. After that we're going shopping at the mall for some tops and maybe some leather pants to go with them." Buffy licks her lips, imagining Kelly with a tight top, pierced belly button showing and tight soft leather pants wrapped around her legs. "Oh, yeah."

"Thank God!" Giles states shaking his head as the phone rings, quickly walking over to the wall and picking it up.

Sam shakes her head and gets herself a cup of coffee, while Dawn turns to look at her sister. "Buffy, you look like you're ready to pounce on poor Kelly."

Kelly chuckles. "That's her pounce look, alright! Okay guys, give me a few minutes so I can get the green bean casserole going. If someone would like to take the pies out to the vehicle, I would appreciate it. I've got boxes on the back porch, cut cardboard out to set between each pie to support them so they don't crush each other. I still have a few more presents to take. Plus the rolls and casserole."

"Yes, we'll be there by 11:00. See you then, my dear." Giles hangs up.

Buffy shakes her head "I'll cut the cardboard up." heading outside.

"Where are the presents that need to be taken out to the vehicle?" Dawn asks.

"They're in my closet in the bags. I think there's roughly five or six bags." Kelly grins in thanks at Dawn.

Heading up the stairs Dawn and Sam bring the presents down.

Quickly fixing the green bean casserole and getting it in the oven, Kelly steps out onto the back porch to find Buffy. Seeing her talking to another woman, she hangs back, deciding to continue with the cardboard that Buffy had barely gotten started on.

"Faith, the prodigal child has returned!" Buffy grins widely, quickly putting the cardboard down and hopping off the porch to give Faith a hug.

"Hey, B! Wha's up?" Faith asks in her gravelly voice, smiling slightly.

"Merry Christmas girlfriend! Where have you been. We haven't heard from you in like four months! What have you been up to?" Buffy asks sincerely happy to see her sister slayer.

"You know me, B. Can't sit still. Been to New York, Cincinnati, New Orleans, bunch of other two-bit towns. You know how it is." Faith shrugs. "Was in the area and thought maybe you wouldn't mind my crashin' here for a while."

"Faith you're always welcome here. Are you okay?" Buffy asks worriedly.

"Yeah, I'm okay B. Just tired, haven't gotten much sleep in the last few days." Faith smiles a little more, glad to be welcomed.

"Well, we're heading over to Willow and Tara's for Christmas dinner. So you might not get to sleep any time soon. And you are going with us. Even if we have to grill out hamburgers to make sure everyone has enough to eat, you hear?" Buffy states in a no nonsense tone.

"Thanks B. Yo, who's that?" Faith asks with a serious note of interest in her voice, eyeing the built woman up and down. "She's fine!"

Buffy rolls her eyes. Figures! "Faith, that's mine, so keep your hands off, okay?" Buffy smiles slightly.

Turning shocked eyes to Buffy, Faith goes "Huh? Since when did you start swinging that way B?" Turning back and looking the woman up an down again she grins, showing her dimples to the fullest "That would probably be worth switching teams, huh?"

Buffy growls under her breathe "You have no idea, Faith. But seriously, I love her. She's become everything to me." Buffy smiles looking at her lover.

Hearing Buffy say that, Faith let's a real smile cross her face. "About damn time, girlfriend. About damn time." Quickly hugging Buffy.

Seeing Faith is seriously happy for her, Buffy smiles in response. "Come on, let me introduce you two. If I thought you were bad on your own, Kelly's going to make you a thousand times worse. Damn, what am I getting myself into?" Buffy mumbles, confusing Faith making her wonder what she's talking about.

Kelly hears them approaching and quickly stands up, wiping her hands on her jeans. Smiling as Buffy comes up beside her wrapping an arm around her waist.

"Kelly, I'd like you to meet the original devil child, Faith. Faith, this is my…" Turning to look at Kelly she frowns "we are so much more than girlfriends, I don't like 'partner', I think it would be weird going around introducing you as my lover, so what should I say?"

Laughing and biting her lip slightly Kelly leans down kissing her quickly "So I guess fuck buddy wouldn't work either, huh? OW!" Kelly rubs her butt where Buffy had pinched it. "Guess not. Hi, Faith, nice to meet you." Reaching out and shaking her hand Kelly grins as Faith puts a little slayer strength into the grip, meeting her pressure for pressure.

"Damn, B! Who is this woman?" Faith finally states looking down at their hands that have both turned white from the pressure. Faith wouldn't admit it, but her hand was actually starting to hurt and she was putting everything into the grip.

Releasing her hand Kelly turns and smiles at Buffy. "I'm going to go get the pies out to the vehicle, you want to explain?" Buffy shrugs.

"She's my heart, my life. Literally we are a part of each other now. We were meant to be together. I think that about covers it." Buffy states quickly smiling at Faith briefly before looking at Kelly.

"Well, that's it in a nutshell." Kelly grins. "Faith come on in. We'll be leaving in roughly an hour, so if you want to change or anything, go ahead."

"Thanks, stretch." Faith grins. "I'll go take a quick shower and change." Hopping off the porch to grab her duffel bag and heading into the house and up the stairs to get cleaned up.

"So that's Faith the other slayer, huh?" Kelly asks Buffy while stacking up the pies.

"Yeah. She's had a rough life. She doesn't like to stay in any place for long." Buffy sadly shakes her head. "Actually I don't think she knows how to act around us, most of the time."

"No one will have anything for her for Christmas, since she just showed up, will they?" Kelly whispers quietly.

"No. Damn. Everyone is going to be opening up gifts and she won't have anything. Fuck!" Buffy grumbles.

"Buffy, I bought you a few things that are probably out in the hummer right now." Looking her in the eye Kelly asks her silently if she can. "It's some weapons that I had shipped here that were part of my collection. Can I?"

"That and leather are the two main things, she likes. Besides sex, and you definitely are not going to do that for her, okay?" Buffy grins, letting her know that it was okay to give Faith the gifts.

"Can you go and get a few tags for me to change them out? Also, find Dawn and send her in here. I have something I was going to give Dawn, but if she can wait, I'll give it to Faith instead, and replace it." Kelly frowns slightly.

"What are you talking about?" Buffy asks.

"Sort of a gift card so she can buy anything she wants with it. If all Faith has is what's in the duffel bag, she can probably use it." Kelly smiles slightly.

"Okay. I'll get the tags and send Dawn in." Buffy reaches up and kisses Kelly lightly.

"Hey, I heard you wanted to talk to me?" Dawn bops into the kitchen grabbing an apple out of the bowl to munch on it while watching Kelly curiously.

"Yeah, I've got a big favor to ask you." Kelly looks seriously at Dawn.

Straightening up Dawn gets serious "Sure, what you need?"

"I don't know if you know yet, but Faith showed up a few minutes ago." At Dawns shake of the head Kelly grins slightly. "Well, we don't have anything for her for Christmas, and…well, I got you a Visa Gift card for Christmas along with a couple other things. Would you mind terribly if I give this card to Faith and I'll get you another one?"

Dawn smiles. "You're too nice! That would be fine, Kelly. I can't believe my sister lucked out with you. You know, it's very well known that I'm the better sister!"

"Hey! Stop trying to still my girlfriend!" Buffy growls walking into the kitchen, handing the tags to Kelly. "Here babe."

"Thank you. Let me take these pies out and find the gifts to switch out the tags with, okay?" Kelly kisses Buffy lightly on the nose before grabbing up three of the pies, and heading towards the front door.

Buffy looks at the remaining pies and grabs them up to help. "Thanks Dawn. You didn't have to do that, you know."

"It's Christmas Buffy. And, actually Kelly didn't have to do it either. She really is a good person." Dawn smiles slightly. "She's like Tara in that sense. Both of them would do anything humanly possibly to make everyone happy."

"That is very true. Let me get these pies out there and see if she needs any other help. Love you brat." Buffy states kissing her on the cheek.

"Love you too, Buff." Dawn smiles before heading upstairs to see Faith.

Smiling as Buffy sets the pies down beside packages, Kelly runs her hand down her back and lightly pats her on the butt. "You look absolutely edible in that dress, you know? It hugs you in all the right places."

"Do you need any help?" Buffy questions watching her lover dig through the bags.

"I found all but one of them." Kelly grumbles looking through the bags. "Ah Ha!" She pulls out a small box that was roughly four inches squared. Gently easing the tag off and replacing it with another one, Kelly quickly writes Faith in the To section and Buffy in the From section.

"There that's the last one here." Pulling her cell phone out, she quickly calls Tara. "Hey sis… Almost ready to leave, but I got a favor to ask…Thanks, anyway it looks like there's going to be another mouth to feed…Faith…Yes she showed up this morning….If we don't have enough food, I'll run over here and get some leftovers and heat them up, don't worry!…I'm sure….Anyway, there's a card on your mantle to Dawn…Do you have another envelope you can put it in and put Faith's name on the outside?…I would appreciate it…Love you!" Hanging up Kelly smiles. "I think that's pretty much it."

"No, that's not it." Buffy states huskily, feeling the love for this wonderful person easing up inside her. "I think someone deserves a huge kiss." Wrapping her arms around Kelly's neck and standing on her tiptoes, Buffy pulls Kelly the rest of the way down for a heart stopping, passionate kiss, quickly invading Kelly's mouth with her tongue, tangling them together groaning into the kiss as Kelly pulls her tight against her body.

Running her hands down Buffy's back, Kelly runs them down to cup her ass. Hands hesitating they run back up and down again. Groaning loudly Kelly pulls away. "That just is not fair!"

Grinning wickedly Buffy looks at her lover. "What's wrong baby? Do you think my not wearing underwear is going to bother you today, or something?" Giggling, Buffy quickly turns and heads back into the house, leaving a tall brunette contemplating retaliation behind her.

"Is that everything?" Kelly asks looking in the rearview mirror, making contact with one then another person. "Now children, you know the rules. Did everyone go to the bathroom? We won't be stopping on the way, no matter how much you beg. And I don't want to hear 'are we there yet?' coming out of anyone's mouth, understood." Getting snorts of laughter interspersed with 'yeah rights' and one bitch from her lover Kelly nods her head. "Don't think I didn't hear that comment young woman. Just think about what I know and if you don't want everyone else to know you better apologize."

Buffy's eyes widen from the back seat where her and Faith are sitting, to let Giles sit up front. "I'm sorry honey. You know I love you."

"Yo! Stretch. What'cha got on B? I ain't never heard her apologize like that before!" Faith smirks, catching Kelly's eyes in the rearview mirror. Finally getting what Buffy had been grumbling about earlier. Kelly is definitely joker.

Pulling out of the driveway and heading toward the witches house, Kelly smiles. "Sorry Faith. She apologized. I can't tell, now." Glancing up she winks at Faith.

Rolling her eyes Faith turns and looks at a slightly blushing Buffy. "So, B. I guess you found the fun, huh?" Faith gives a slight thrust of her hips.

Buffy starts grinning madly, surprising Faith. Usually she gets a 'how rude' or a 'grow up' from Buffy.

Leaning into Faith glancing up to see that Kelly is watching where she's driving and not paying any attention to them. "Hours and hours and hours of fun, Faith. She literally makes me explode all over the place! The things that woman does! Wow! I didn't know some of those things were possible."

Faith chokes slightly and just stares at Buffy open mouthed, not believing what she has just heard. Swallowing repeatedly, Faith opens and closes her mouth, not knowing what to say.

Trying not to laugh at Faith, Buffy decides to push it a little farther "And my God! The things she lets me do to her. Not let's me do, gets off on, wants me to do over and over again. Slayer strength? I have never been happier for it in my life." Buffy starts laughing seeing Faith's dilated eyes and smelling the arousal coming from the dark slayer.

Pulling back Faith figures Buffy is fucking with her "Funny B! Glad to see you finally got a sense of humor."

Raising her eyebrow Buffy looks at Faith and states very seriously. "I was actually serious, Faith."

Hey, what are you two talking about back there? I can't hear you, and Faith looks like she's about ready to get off or something. Kelly thinks at her.

Looking up and catching her lover's eyes in the rearview mirror, Buffy blushes. Sorry, I couldn't resist. I'll tell you later, since we're here, okay? You aren't mad at me, are you?

Like I would get mad at you. You forgive me for all the shit I pull. Grinning Kelly pulls in and parks. Turning to unbuckle she sees Giles watching her with narrowed eyes. "What did I do now?" She asks exasperatedly.

"You were talking, weren't you?" Giles states accusingly.

"Yes. Do I have to ask your permission for that? Because if I do, I'm really going to flash you just to get you all flustered!" Kelly growls at him jokingly.

Giles leans in till they are nose to nose and growls right back "And I might like it!" Before pulling away and getting out of the suddenly quiet vehicle.

"Yes!" Kelly yells grinning madly. "I have corrupted the tweed dude!" Hopping out of the Hummer and dancing around.

Everyone else that was sitting there in stunned silence watches Kelly and they all start busting up laughing.

Faith looks at Buffy "You actually are in love with her? B, I hate to tell you this, but I think she's worse than me!"

Buffy grins "In ways, I would have to agree with that point, Faith. Come on, let's get this stuff inside."

Climbing out of the vehicle, everyone grabs some stuff and head up to the house, where Tara is standing with her hands on her hips, having heard Kelly's yell and dancing extravaganza.

"You better not have upset Mr. Giles, Kelly." Tara states smiling her lopsided smile.

Giles walks up the steps first, carrying a couple bags of Christmas presents. "Merry Christmas, my dear. And I would really, really like to know how you two can be related." Sighing dramatically he smirks at the blonde. Leaning down to give her a kiss on the cheek before whispering "She is a card, isn't she?"

Grinning in appreciation at the watcher Tara nods her head. "It has been extremely interesting since she came here. Go ahead and take the presents in by the tree, to the left. By the way, it's good to see you."

"Same here, my dear." Giles smiles nodding his head to the gentle Wicca before heading in the house.

As everyone traipses inside wishing Merry Christmas' and hugs if possible.

As everyone gathered in the living room, filling up all the available seats, Kelly quickly sits on the floor, with her back against the wall, stretching her legs out to watch and enjoy, not really expecting anything. Happy to be there with family. Smiling as Buffy walks over and eases down onto her lap, leaning back against her chest, crossing her legs over Kelly's.

Wrapping her arms around her lover's waist and hooking her chin over her shoulder, Kelly whispers "family is the best present ever" before kissing her cheek lightly and turning back to watch as Willow quickly starts grabbing gifts, spreading them out amongst everyone.

"By the way, I bought you some more stuff, but it's at the house hiding up in the attic. I didn't want to have to track them back and forth. Hope you don't mind." Kelly quietly whispers, lightly stroking Buffy's stomach through her dress.

"Of course not. I love you." Buffy states, turning her head, kissing Kelly lightly on the lips, before being interrupted by a present being plopped in her lap by Tara.

"Come on you two, enough with the making out, open some gifts!" Tara smirks.

"Sorry, can't help it, your sister is hot." Buffy smirks right back.

"Hmm, this one is to me." Buffy grins, quickly tearing into the wrapping, making Kelly chuckle. "Oh, my." She whispers, pulling out a choker necklace that matches her ring. Turning to look at Kelly with questioning eyes.

"I love you." She whispers kissing her deeply, before pulling away. "Would you?" She asks handing the necklace to Kelly while pulling her hair out of the way.

Quickly placing the necklace around Buffy's throat and latching it, Kelly leans in kissing the back of Buffy's neck. "I love you to, babe."

Tara looks in surprise at the necklace, then sees the ring Buffy's wearing that matches it. Quickly kneeling down beside the two women. "Oh, my Goddess." She whispers looking at Buffy. "That is absolutely gorgeous." Looking back at Kelly. "Am I to assume that you two aren't just screwing each others brains out and are actually planning on being together?"

Buffy smiles and nods her head. "She's my heart, Tara." Unknowingly mimicking the words Kelly had written in her note to Willow and Tara.

Gathering them both into a hug Tara whispers "I am so happy for both of you." Pulling back with tears in her eyes she smiles. Then her eyes narrow slightly, zeroing in on Kelly. "And you, did you do something you need to tell me about?"

Eyes opening wide Kelly coughs slightly. "Exactly what are you talking about, Sis?" She asks wondering which thing she was going to get in trouble for first.

"Well, it happens that my darling redhead signed into the on-line banking and it seems we have QUITE a bit more money in there than we should. Would you happen to know where it came from?" Looking at Kelly with her eyebrow raised, Tara keeps a serious look on her face.

"Me" Squeaks out Kelly. Smiling apologetically "Merry Christmas?"

"We are going to talk." Tara shakes her finger at her.

Buffy giggles. "Tara, you can talk all you want, but it isn't going to do any good. She did the same thing to me. She told me I could spend it all on shoes, if I wanted too!"

Tara's eyes open wide "Two million on shoes?" At Buffy's nod Tara looks to Kelly again. "Exactly how much money do you have?"

"Enough to where I have probably already made back the four million I gave you two." Kelly mumbles quietly. "Come on, yell at me later, if you want. But it's Christmas, get with opening the presents."

As everyone started tearing in their presents, Faith is standing and leaning against the wall, watching everyone and smiling slightly. Figuring she wasn't getting anything, especially since she just showed up this morning. When Tara handed her a small package to her from Buffy she looks up in surprise catching Buffy's eye. Raising an eyebrow in question, Buffy tilts her head back towards Kelly. Nodding her head, she quickly opens it and gasps in shock. Inside were authentic silver throwing stars. It looked like a dozen of them, beautifully hand crafted, real authentic ones, not the crap ones most stores try to pawn off. Swallowing hard, she looks back up, catching Buffy's eye, since Kelly seemed more interested in burying her face in Buffy's hair. Mouthing a thank you Buffy winks, turning her eyes to Tara who is walking towards her with another package.

Feeling her knees start to wobble, Faith accepts the gift and slowly eases to sit on the floor, before she falls down. Pulling off the bow and opening the long narrow box Faith feels a tear start to ease down her cheek. Running a shaking hand around the handle of the sword with a ivory dragon head on the end, she gently lifts it out of the box, sliding the sword gently out, seeing the engravings on the blade, she quickly slides it back in, placing it back in the box before quickly wiping the tears that had started to fall.

Standing up she quickly walks over to kneel beside Buffy and Kelly. "I--I can't accept this." She hoarsely states, another tear escaping. "It's too much." Looking from Buffy to Kelly and holding Kelly's eyes. "You can't give me this. This sword is probably worth a million dollars. I'm not worth it." Faith states in a sad voice, looking down at the floor.

Babe, can I talk to Faith outside? Kelly asks.

Please. You out of everyone might be able to get through to her. I love you. Buffy replies.

Kissing Buffy on the shoulder, she gently slides out from under her and stands up. Looking down at Faith, she holds her hand out.

Looking from Buffy to Kelly's hand, she looks back. Buffy nods her head "Go ahead Faith."

Buffy turns back to watch the rest of the Christmas shenanigans going on.

Reaching up, taking Kelly's hand Faith follows her outside.

"So, what'd ya have to say stretch?" Faith grunts out, sticking her hands in her pants looking out at the yard.

"I thought you might want to talk, Faith." Kelly states leaning against the side of the house.

"Ain't got nothing to talk about. I just don't need no sword, is all." Faith tries to backtrack a bit.

"Faith. Don't try to bullshit me. It won't work. Why do you think you're not worth it?" Kelly states turning a hard stare on Faith.

'Whoa, Stretch has bad ass side.' Faith realizes blinking slightly.

"How about this. I'll tell you a story about a woman I know that didn't believe she was worth anything, either." Kelly states crouching down, plucking a piece of grass from the yard, shredding it into long thin strips while giving Faith her life story, every gritty detail, everything that had happened. Told her stuff she didn't tell Buffy or Tara. She didn't tell her about the stuff that had happened recently, knowing that would be a dead give-a-way. She just held back that it was about her, knowing Faith could and probably would figure it out if she wanted to. Finally winding down, she stands up and turns to look at Faith.

Faith quietly listens to the whole story. Hearing the truth in Kelly's voice. Hearing the pain in the even tones that gave away the fact that it was closer to home that Kelly was telling her. Realizing as the story continued, that it actually was Kelly's life story. Looking down at the ground not saying anything for the longest time, Faith finally looks up and meets Kelly's eyes. "I think you had as fucked up a life as I had growing up." She finally states.

"I won't ask you to spill your life story Faith. But, if you need someone to talk to, I would consider it an honor if you chose me." Setting her hand on her shoulder, Kelly whispered "And I would really, really appreciate it if you would actually BELIEVE that you are worth it. Take the gifts Faith. I want you to have them. More yet, Buffy wants you to have them." Turning to head back in, Kelly's stopped by a hand on her arm.

Faith finally gets out a choked "thank you." Before releasing Kelly's arm and turning to look out into the back yard. Thinking about her shitty family life and Kelly's. No, it wasn't exactly the same, but they both were pretty fucked up. They could understand each other more than anyone else in the house could. Faith realizes she could actually have a close friend in Kelly, if she took up her offer. Closing her eyes Faith felt the ice enclosing her heart crack a little more, from the initial crack of seeing the Katana in the box.

Kelly realizes it isn't going to be easy getting Faith to open up, but knowing if she can get through that hard shell, there would be a loving kind woman under it. Someone that would make a good friend, and maybe a wonderful wife/lover for someone else. Shaking her head she walks back into the living room, smiling slightly at the group of people that were becoming her family. Looking over to Buffy, seeing Buffy watching her with a worried expression, she quickly crosses the floor to sit back down behind her lover, sitting her legs on either side of Buffy's and wrapping her arms around her and hugging her tight. "I love you." She whispers quietly, kissing her neck. And closing her eyes, thanking God for allowing her to love and be loved.

"I love you, too babe." Buffy whispers leaning into the caress. Knowing instinctively that Kelly wasn't ready to talk about what had went on. "Here, this is from Willow and Tara." Buffy picks up a package.

"Open it for me?" Kelly pleads quietly, not ready to relax her grip on her lover. Watching Buffy quickly unwrap her present she feels eyes on her and glances up seeing Tara watching her closely. Smiling slightly at her sister Kelly turns back to the package. As Buffy pulls away the tissue paper Kelly quickly releases the death grip she has on Buffy and reaches for the picture. Feeling tears starting to build up, Kelly swallows hard trying to keep them at bay, but they didn't obey and started running down her face quickly. Taking a deep breath, Kelly traces the picture of her mother standing with Tara, both their arms wrapped around each other, smiling for the camera. Realizing that this picture had to be taken right before their mother died, obviously on a better day. Quickly handing the picture to Buffy, Kelly stands up and crosses to where Tara is standing, grabbing her up in a gentle hug, crying silently.

"The one picture I took, was the one of all three of us together. It got taken away, and I'm assuming destroyed, when I was captured out on an ops mission when I was 20. You couldn't have given me a better gift. Thank you." Kelly whispers hoarsely, before pulling back and wiping her face quickly.

Buffy watches Kelly with a concerned look on her face.

Faith had come in a few minutes before, watching the pain and the love cross the tall woman's face before she grasped Tara in the hug. 'Yeah a lot of pain still with her, also.' Faith thinks to herself, deciding she would try to talk to this woman.

Kelly smiles a watery smile at Tara. "I love you, sis."

Tara had felt tears working their way down her face at Kelly's reaction and now she smiles sadly, reaching up to brush Kelly's cheek. "I didn't mean to make you sad." She softly states.

Shaking her head negatively Kelly takes a deep breath, smiling a bigger smile. "I just wish there was something I could have done, Tara. For both of you. No matter what, I'll always feel sad for that."

Everyone had stopped and were watching the two women, worried briefly. But now they all looked back over their gifts, smiling, talking about what they had received. Thanking everyone else.

"I better start getting the food set out on the table." Tara states grinning. Willow hops up to help.

"Do you need any help?" Kelly asks wiping the last traces of tears from her face, smiling at her sister.

"Nope, I think Willow and I can get it. Get too many people in the kitchen at the same time and it takes twice as long, since you're stepping over each other." Tara smiles and heads to the kitchen.

Quickly going to take up her spot behind Buffy, Kelly hugs her hard. Looking and smiling at the picture. "Hey, you didn't open any of your gifts from me." Kelly whispers in her ear.

"I wanted to wait until you got back in here." Buffy whispers back. Buffy looks up seeing Faith slowly approaching them. ***Faith***

Turning, Kelly watches Faith approach and sit down beside them, reaching for the two boxes, pulling them into her lap. "Thank you." She whispers looking at Kelly then Buffy.

"Your welcome." Buffy quietly states smiling slightly. "Here, this is for you, also." Buffy hands her the card.

Opening the envelope, Faith pulls out the Visa. Giving them a questioning look, she flips it over seeing that it states it's a debit card and as soon as the money was used up, to dispose of it properly. Looking back inside the envelope, she pulls out a little card that states the enclosed credit card has a $5,000 balance and was good wherever a Visa is accepted.

You were going to give my sister a credit card worth $5,000? Buffy incredulously sends in Kelly's mind.

Be nice or I'll make it for a lot more! Kelly sends back smiling slightly.

"If I try to give this back, you're gonna get pissed, ain't cha?" Faith asks before looking up catching Kelly's eye.

Surprisingly it's Buffy that answers "Yeah, Faith. She'll get pissed. And if she gets pissed, I get pissed. It's a big pissing match and nobody's happy. So just say thanks, give us hugs and kisses and go spend the fucking money on leather and food or whatever!"

Faith starts grinning and then laughs loudly looking at Buffy. "B, She's damn good for your ass. Plus you just gave me permission to give her a hug and kiss!! HOOEEE!!" Faith quickly pounces on Buffy and Kelly both, hugging them at the same time before placing a quick hard kiss on Buffy's mouth and another one on Kelly's mouth before pulling away, grinning madly.

Shaking her head, it takes a moment to come out of the shock that she was just kissed by Faith. And so was Kelly! Frowning she gives Faith the evil eye, before smirking at the slayer. "That's the only freebie you get. I catch you kissing her without my permission, I'll kick your ass!"

Raising an eyebrow Kelly turns her head to look at Buffy. "So, all she needs is your permission? It isn't a definite no, she just gets your permission and she can kiss me anytime she wants? I mean, I don't get a say in the matter at all?" Taking a breath to continue the complaining, Buffy quickly swoops in, invading her mouth quickly before she gets to say anything else.

Kissing Kelly long and hard, Buffy finally pulls back looking at her and smiles. "I love you."

"Love you too, babe." Kelly grins and winks at her lover. "Get opening your gifts."

Buffy grins and starts tearing into her presents, opening her eyes wide at the leather jacket and pants that she pulls out of the boxes. Opening one of them, she quickly closes it back. "Kelly!" She hisses.

"What?" Kelly asks. Looking into the box Kelly has the good grace to look slightly embarrassed. "Sorry, I must have gotten that mixed up with another box. That should have been an at-home one."

Faith starts laughing. "Come on, show and tell B. What's in it?" Kelly raises an eyebrow at Buffy and Buffy just rolls her eyes before opening another box. Laughing, Kelly hands the box to Faith.

Faith opens the box and gives a low wolf whistle. "B. These are some sexy undies she got ya! I mean, hell. I'd love to have these. These are top drawer." Faith starts pulling out the g-string panties, holding them up, looking at them front and back. "Damn this box must hold twenty pairs. Pink, red, purple, ooh B – these purple ones are real purty!" Faith grins at Buffy.

Buffy growls low in her throat "Faith, stop playing in my underwear."

Kelly sputters out a laugh at Buffy's phrasing and buries her face in her back, shaking hard.

Faith's eyes open wide, "Well, damn B. All you had to do was ask." Faith quickly puts the underwear back in the box and closes it up. "I guess I'm not allowed to play in B's underwear. Stretch, if she ever gives you that order, feel free to look me up." Faith smirks at Buffy.

Buffy frowns then thinks about the actual words she said and blushes darkly. "I didn't mean it like that! Jeez. You both need help."

"But honey, you were the one to say it!" Kelly finally gets out between her laughing fits.

"Guys, dinner's ready." Willow comes in and tells everyone.
