Tara : " Why? It didn’t go well?"

Buffy : "Lets just say that I couldn’t done better considering everything…" (thinking)

Willow : " But mine went great! I’m sure that I’ll get a good mark on this one!"

Buffy : " Tell us something new Will! You always get good grades even when you don’t study at all!" (with a point of jealousy in her voice)

Tara : " C’mon Buffy, I’m sure that Willow puts a lot of effort in her classes!" (trying to calm the situation)

Buffy : " Anyway, Will I’ll talk to you soon! I have to go see Giles and know what’s going on! If you’ll excuse me."

Willow : " Buff! Keep me posted will you?" (anxious)

Buffy says yes with a movement of the head and walks away.

Tara : " What is wrong with her?"

Willow : " She’s under a lot of stress these days. She’s going to be fine… She’s Buffy! She has to be fine!" (nervous)

Tara looks at Willow in an odd way. She doesn’t quite understand what is going on. Actually, she doesn’t have a clue of what is going on, but she intends on finding out.

They finish their meals and Tara pretends that she has an important meeting that she has to attend and completely forgot about it. When she leaves, she gives Willow a big hug and gives her the number of her room. She tells Willow that anytime she wants to talk, relax, study or wants to learn more about the group of magic that the college has, she’s more than welcome.

Tara leaves Willow and goes straight to the Magic Box. On her way there she thinks.

Willow, on the other hand, goes directly to the library to return some books and to get new ones, but this time on physics. Roaming in the isles full of books, she thinks.
