Lenore bit her lip shyly. She knew that Willow was flirting with her. She could hear it in her voice. Though she was confused as to why the witch was was doing so, she had to admit, it felt kind of good. It had been a while since anybody had flirted with her. What sould I do, flirt back? she wondered. No, she didn't want to seem too eager. She did, however, throw her a smile. A little encouragement never hurt. Besides, Willow was kind of cute. And she couldn't believe that she was interested in her. A witch and a vampire. That kind of has a poetic ring to it, she thought to herself. Almost immediately, she mentally shook her head. Way to jump the gun and get distracted. She needed to focus on getting to know WIllow first. Getting to know each was key. And what better way to get to know her than to help with the spell?

At Willow's comment that she hoped that the other girl could stay in town longer, Lenore smiled. Yes! It looks like she might be interested she thought to herself. But on the other hand, she could merely just be trying to extend common courtesy. After all, she was new in town and it was only polite to offer help to a new person.
"Well I'm not really sure how long I'll be in town for, but while I'm here, maybe you could show me around?" she requested. That sounds normal. I'm in a new place and I don't really know anyone and this shows that I'm open to hanging out with her, she thought to herself. And normal was good. It wouldn't scare her off. Oh true she could explore the town and find things on her own, but what would be the fun in that? Besides, exploring a town together could be kind of fun. But that will have to come later. Keep your head in the present, Lenore, she reminded herself. Yeah, staying focus was good. Too bad she couldn't manage to do it. However, that was neither here or there as the humans said. Then she frowned thoughtfully. What did that mean anyway? She gave herself a mental shake. She was getting distracted again.

Lenore's brows furrowed in slight confusion as Willow assured her that her friends would be fine with vampires and that there were others at the moment.
"You make a habit of hanging around vampires?" she asked. Does she have a death wish? she wondered. She then laughed as Willow expressed her interest in continuing the spell.
"Sounds good. How about I read and you do the actual casting?" she suggested. As she had said, she wasn't really all that versed in the magics and she didn't want to mess the spell up by accident.

Willow hoped that she wasn’t freaking her out by flirting with her, she couldn’t help this feeling that she was having for her. There was just something about her she really liked, but she did smile back which was a good sign. Maybe Willow was wrong maybe this girl was gay or Bi for that matter. But if she wasn’t at all in away shape or form then she was going to feel bad, because the last thing she really wanted to do was make her feel uncomfortable. She really hoped that she hadn’t, getting to know her better might be a better idea on Willow part. She just hoped that she could quit flirting with her, because for some reason it was hard for her. Which told her right there she did like her more then she realized.

Willow smiled when she said that she could show her around the town a bit, she loved the idea because really she had not gotten to know the town at all herself. It just seemed the group was always busy working on something so when did she have the time, or Buffy for that matter. So she getting to spend it with someone like Lenore made the witch rather happy. “That sounds like a great idea I would love to do that with you! I think you will find it really nice her, and it seems like quite a few of your kind live her as well in case you wanted to know.” Said Willow in excited like tone.

She could tell that she was surprised to hear that she hung around vampires, but when you best friend dates one you kind of have to. But she didn’t mind Angel was a great friend to Willow as well, and Spike well he was a good friend to. “Yeah my best friend is kind of with one, Angel is pretty cool you should meet him.” Said Willow. “and there a few others that I know, but don’t worry they are all good wouldn’t hurt a fly. “ She thought about telling her that they did in fact have souls but that really wasn’t her place to tell. Plus Lenore was nice and she didn’t even have one, Willow would have felt it if she did.

They took each others hands and Willow begin, She stood there closing her eyes as they were in silence. This spell didn’t really require much words, just mostly concentration and lots of it. As they stood there in silence for a few moments, she finally called out a few words in a whisper for the spell. The all the sudden it happened the flowers and things around them begin to lit up, it really was beautiful in this moment with her she wondered what was going through her head. “Well what you think?” She asked her. “Beautiful isn’t it?”

Lenore grinned at the excitement in Willow's voice as she agreed to show her around, saying that she'd love to do it, that she'd find the place to be nice, and that there were other vampires around. Someone's sure excited, she thought to herself. But that was good. She wanted Willow to be excited about something as she had sounded really sad when talking about the woman she had lost.
"That's good to know," she commented, taking the last comment in. If the other woman's tone was anything to go by, they weren't a threat to the populous. It'd be good to meet some other vampires in town. A girl could get lonely even when she was just visiting places. Besides, she liked hanging around other vampires---as long as they weren't munching on the townsfolk. If they were, then there'd be a problem because she'd have to kick their butts and fighting with other vampires wasn't something she was particularly fond of doing.

Then, her jaw dropped slightly when the other woman admitted that her best friend was with one: someone named Angel. Her best friend was in a relationship with a vampire? Was the other woman mad?
"Angelus?" she gasped as the name suddenly registered with her. She didn't know much about him, but she had definitely heard the name. After all, a vampire couldn't go on a killing spree without making a name for themselves, even in the vampire community. Not that she had paid much attention to anything about him as they had never traveled in the same circles and she'd rather keep it that way, thank you very much. She wasn't one who thought hanging around a psychopathic killer was a fun time. Then again, if anyone had ever found about what she used to do to her victims, they would probably say the same thing about her.
"How can you be sure that he can be trusted?" she wondered even as the other woman mentioned that were a few other vampires that she knew and that they wouldn't even hurt a fly. Okay, now I'm confused, she thought to herself. Had this witch and her friend been enthralled in some way? She had never heard of it happening to a witch before, but she supposed anything was possible.

She then mentally shook herself and then took Willow's hand. Seeing her close her eyes, the vampire did the same. For a long while, all she could hear was the normal sounds would hear in the forest. Then Willow said something that she didn't understand and she opened her eyes as it suddenly got brighter. Lenore let out a gasp as she saw the whole forest light up. To a human, it would be pretty bright all right, but to a vampire, it was---it was---it was intense.
"You have no idea," she responded in an awe-filled voice at the question of what she thought and the comment that it was beautiful. "Through my eyes, it's like---a hundred times brighter than whatever you're seeing," she continued, letting out a light chuckle.

She could tell that she was excited to check out the town with her, which she couldn’t wait herself. Willow had been dying to learn more about what they had here, plus she really needed to do some shopping for some new clothes. She could only pack so much when leaving Rome, and why send for more of her stuff when it was so much more fun just to buy more. It was a reasonable excuse for a girl but a good one. She really hoped that Lenore stayed, she was really staring to like her a lot. She knew that if she stayed in this town just a bit longer then she would love it there.

She seemed a little shocked and scared to hear that Buffy was with Angel, it seemed she too had heard of the great Angelus. But really these days what vampire hadn’t. Lenore must be a whole lot older then Willow though she was. “Don’t worry its ok.” She said trying to calm her down. “He is Angel now and he has been cursed with a soul, don’t worry I cursed him myself once before so I know he is safe. Angel is pretty much a bit teddy bear now, he wouldn’t hurt a fly not even if you wanted him to.” It was true Angel was the most caring yet sweet vampire that Willow has ever known. Spike had his moments she will give him that, but Angel was a very thoughtful yet caring person. It was kind of a weakness of his at times, but it was a good one to have as well.

As they stood there Willow could feel it light up all around them, she didn’t even have to look to know how beautiful it was. But she looked anyway at how bright and colorful it was, she loved that she was getting to share this moment with her. But It seemed like Lenore was seeing this in a whole different way then she was, Willow forgot the whole being vampire brought out so much more in there eyes. “I god I’m sorry I forgot, its not hurting you eyes is it?” She asked in a worried like tone. “I could tone it down a bit if you like, I don’t want to hurt you or anything.” Willow then gave her a soft yet sweet smile, knowing that she was really starting to feel something for her.

After her small outburst, Lenore wasn't sure what to say. Would Willow be offended at what she said? However, it would appear that she hadn't offended her new friend who even went out of her way to assure her that Angel was on the side of good having been cursed with a soul and that he was pretty much a teddy bear.
"If you say so," Lenore said doubtfully. She's lost me on the soul thing, but if she's sure Angelus isn't a threat... her thought trailed off. And from what she was saying, it would appear that this Angelus had indeed switched sides and was good. "I have to admit, you have lost me on the whole thing," she confessed. True vampires could be ruthless, but it didn't mean that they were soulless. At least as far she she knew you didn't lose your personality. In fact, part of her reason for going on an animal diet was was because of her sweet nature. Well, that, and she was sick of being hunted.

At Willow's panicked tone about the brightness, Lenore laughed. Oh, that poor dear. I didn't mean to make her feel bad, she thought to herself.
"Don't worry, it's fine. It's brighter but it's beautiful. I wouldn't have missed helping you with this spell for the world," she assured. And it was true. She loved seeing forest being lit up with colors. The colors were amazing and it made the whole forest look so pretty. She couldn't think of anything else she would've rather had done tonight. "You don't need to tone it down at all," she insisted. And she didn't. So things were a bit bright. She could deal with it. Besides, it wasn't hurting her eyes that much. She let out a happy but an unnecessary sigh as she looked around at the forest. It really was pretty. "It's so pretty. Thanks for letting me be a part of this," she said to her.

“Don’t worry I know so.“ The witch said smiling at the vamp. Willow couldn’t tell that she was still a bit skeptical about hanging with Angel, but really she didn’t need to worry. She would see when they meet that he was harmless, which Willow plans on. “Don’t worry you too will meet, the you will see he is harmless.” She for sure wants to take Leonor to meet the Gang, she is pretty much sure they will love her. They also were going to be shocked when they see how much she actually looks like Tara, they might even think its her. It might be best for give a heads up before they meet her, other wise they all will wig.

Willow couldn’t help but do nothing but smile, she was happy that she liked the spell. It really was beautiful and getting to spend this moment with Lenore really was great, especially with how much Willow felt for her. She really wished she could tell her how much she liked her, but she knew in time she would. Right now it would just scare her off which is the last thing Willow wanted. “I’m glad you got to experience this with me.” Said giving her a smile. She was glad that the brightness wasn’t hurting her eyes, last thing she wanted was to hurt her.

She could tell that Lenore was really happy for letting her in on this magic, which Willow was happy about to. She loved getting to share this with her, she hoped to share many more fun times with her. Finally Willow let up from the spell, it was starting to take a lot out of her. “I’m really glad you got to do that with me too.” Said Willow. “We soon need to do this again, so when are you free next? Because I’m thinking you and me need to have a hang out day.” Which was pretty much Willow was of asking her out.

At Willow's reassurance, Lenore managed a small smile. She wasn't sure if she believed that Angelus could ever be harmless but the other woman seemed to think that he would be. I guess I'm just going to have to trust her, she thought.
"I'd like to meet your friends...and see for my own peace of mind just what Angelus is up to these days," she admitted. Which was true. It would put her mind at ease. After all, a vampire that threatened a community often spelled trouble for other vampires as well. "I've never actually met him, but a vampire can't go on a killing spree without being talked about," she continued. And if she found out that Angelus was an actual danger, she'd drive the stake through his heart herself. Or she could behead him. Whichever was quickest. But that was only if he was a danger to this woman, whom she had to admit---to herself at least---was rather cute. In a way, Lenore was a bit surprised that she was thinking of Willow in this way as it had been some years since she had met a woman that had caused this time of reaction.

She then mentally shook these thoughts away as she became aware that Willow was talking again, saying that she was glad that they had been able to share the experience.
"Me too," she agreed. "To be honest, it was the first spell I've ever helped with," she admitted. She smiled when Willow asked her when she was free next and that they needed a day where they hung out together. "I like that idea. I have to find a hotel tonight, and I have something planned tomorrow, but I should be free the day after that," she responded, biting her lip as a small flutter of excitement went through her. She couldn't believe she was acting like this! What was it about Willow that was causing the reaction?

“She couldn’t wait for her friends to meet Lenore she knew that they were just going to love her, but they were going to be more in shock to see that she looked just like Tara. “Yeah I think he would think you were pretty cool, along with everyone else.” She said with a smile. She knew they love her for that, they would feel in away like she was there with them. That could be the reason Willow liked her so much and didn’t want to leave being around her. She felt just like she was with Tara again, safe and like she could do anything.

She was happy that she got to be the first to get to do a spell with her, she always loves getting to do magic with newbie’s. She just loved showing something new to someone, feeling like a teacher with her craft. “Well I’m happy that I got to do your first spell with you, I had a lot of fun showing it too you. I hope that we get to do more real soon.” Said willow. She was happy to hear that Lenore and her were going to hang out, but what she didn’t like was her staying at a hotel room. Maybe soon she could stay her to stay at the boring house, but now it might be to soon to ask.

Willow then looked at her cellophane and realized the time, she knew she needed to get back to the gang. “Well we will keep in touch, but I need to get back. Willow got her cell number before going on her way, even though a part of her really didn’t want to leave her even though she had to. But one thing was for sure they would keep in touch.
