Song: “Mi Amor” is written by Rubin Perez and Medeiros and is sung by Oscar De La Hoya. Yes, you’re reading that correctly.

Spoilers: “Hush” and “Family”

Author’s Note: Well, here I am writing a song-fic. Nothing new there, EXCEPT for the tiny fact that the song in question is in Spanish. I had a conversation with Xita a while back and if I’m not mistaken; as it has been a long time, I think I remember her saying how she’d like to write one using a Spanish song. And as luck has it, I’ve done it. I can say that there is an English version of this song on the same CD, but the LYRICS are NOT the same. So, if you’d like to have a rough translation, go ahead and ask away.

Angst Warning?: None that I can say.

Mi Amor
Si no es contigo,
estoy perdido,
no se vivir

Tara listened to the words on the radio, she had just been changing the stations when the song came on. She decided to see if her high school Spanish had stuck. She recognized the words and knew what they meant and she could feel the emotions that they brought...

She would be lost without Willow.

Mi Amor
dejate amar,
no puedo esperar,
dame tu amor

Granted it had taken some time for them to move past their friendship and into the relationship they now shared.

Cuando te vi
supe que serias solo para mi

Well, she wasn’t exactly sure, at least not the first time she saw Willow. She definitely knew in the laundry room that something had happened ... and not in a strictly magical sense.

El corazon, me robaste al
verte con tu seduccion

Her heart had been stolen, but long before that faithful night... during the blackout.

Yo quisiera conquistarte

Tara wasn’t going to get very far if she tried to get Willow to love her. It had to happen by itself, with time.

And it had.

Esta noche amarte hasta la luz del sol
solos tu y yo

There had been a few nights when the love they shared expressed itself in such a manner that they didn’t sleep until the early morn.

Mi Amor
Si no es contigo,
estoy perdido,
no se vivir

Tara realized that she owed so much to Willow. Not only for everything they shared, but also for a reason to go on. She wasn’t sure what she would have done without her or her new family.

Mi Amor
dejate amar,
no puedo esperar,
dame tu amor

And Willow had given her love.

‘It’s been an awakening... you know. I can’t explain it. All I know is that it’s different from anything before,’ Willow had said.

And Tara believed her.

No se controlar
las ganas de que un dia
tu me llegues a besar

Oh, Tara loved losing control, whenever she found herself lost in Willow’s kisses.

No hay nada que hacer
cuando el impulso manda
no se puede detener

And there was nothing either of them would do to stop the desire that swept them away.

Estoy loco por tenerte
por saber que ya eras mi de verdad
sin condicion

They had a very long talk after her family had finally left. She held nothing back, she wouldn’t jeopardize what they had ever again.

Mi Amor

(Mi amor)
si no es contigo,

(Contigo)
estoy perdido,

(No puede vivir)
no se vivir

Mi Amor
(Mi amor)
dejate amar,
no puedo esperar,
dame tu amor...

Te quedo... mi Amor

And she did love Willow...

Mi Amor
(Mi amor)
si no es contigo,
( si no es contigo)
estoy perdido,
(sin te yo no puede vivir)
no se vivir
Mi Amor
dejate amar,
(amar)
no puedo esperar,
dame tu amor... mi amor
(quando)
si no es contigo,
( contigo)
estoy perdido,
(sin te yo no puede vivir)
no se vivir

Mi Amor
dejate amar,
no puedo esperar,
(no puedo... no puedo)
dame tu amor...

Mi Amor

My love.

The End.
