TARA: Hey!

WILLOW: Look at you. All coming-out-of-class and everything.

TARA: I do that sometimes. Usually at the end part of the class.

WILLOW: Right.

TARA: So how's your (gestures to neck)... you know, after the basement deal?

WILLOW: It's between a hitch and a kink. With a side of twinge. It's okay.

TARA: And Buffy's okay too? Enjoying the refreshing sanity and so forth?

WILLOW: (overdoing) Ha! Yes! Refreshing san-- that's funny! (normal) She's okay. A little... freaked. I'm glad she didn't hurt you.

TARA: You too... So, this is becoming kind of a regular thing. You and me after class.

WILLOW: Uh, I didn't...

TARA: Only this time you stuck around.

WILLOW: Ah, um... various sounds of hesitation...

TARA: She was just a friend.

WILLOW: Friends are nice!

TARA: You rushed off before I could, you know, explain.

WILLOW: Well, officially, I have to say I have no idea what you're talking about.

TARA: Unofficially?

WILLOW: (smiling) We should have some coffee some time. Maybe some day this week after class?

TARA: I'm free tomorrow.

WILLOW: You could, you could bring your friend.

TARA: I wasn't gonna -- I mean, if you have a friend --

WILLOW: No! I'm, oh, I'm friendless.

TARA: Yeah, yeah. No friends -- I mean, I have friends....

WILLOW: Right, many dear friends, yeah.

TARA: Coffee.

WILLOW: With us. Who are... just friends.
