Welcome back from your break! You are obviously feeling refreshed because this chapter was just as strong as all the previous ones. Your Spike is one of the strongest Spikes anyone in fanfic has written. I'm so glad you didn't make him wimpy and desperate for love. He is his own man/vamp--he knows what he wants and goes after it, so that when he offers to give up killing because he loves Buffy, it means a lot. But it isn't happily ever after yet, because Angelus is still lurking out there somewhere, right?
Thank you so much! It's good to be back, too. And thank you for the compliments on my Spike. I like a Spike who still has an edge, even if he is in love with Buffy. He might do things to please her, but there's more to him than the fact that he's in love with her, so he is still his own person. Angelus is lurking somewhere, but what he's up to is a bit of a mystery... I'm glad you liked the chapter, and thanks for reviewing!

They are such a cute couple. She really brings the human out in him.
Love the all day sex marathon. There are some real advantages to a vampire for a boyfriend LOL.
I love that you are making them still having to feel around each other, that rings true.
Excellent.

Thank you! Yes, Buffy makes Spike a bit soft. But not *too* soft, LOL, he's still got some bite. And I'm glad you like the way I'm developing their relationship. They're already very comfortable around each other, but there is still a feeling of new. Thanks for reviewing!

Excellent chapter, yay for being back!
Thank you! And it's good to be back!

This update was a lovely surprise. It's wonderful to see Buffy acknowledging what Spike has given up for her and making sure he knows how happy he's made her. They really do communicate!
Yay for communication! LOL. But I think sometimes in fics Buffy comes across as thinking that it's her right to have Spike stop killing for her, so she never really appreciates how big a deal it actually is for him. Thanks for reviewing!

racy...funny...sweet...all in one chapter. You write so delightfully....wit and humor, yes, but there's something else...affection. The love scenes are not over written (not that there's anything wrong with that, some days just call for long and lovely spuffy smut...haha), but for this story and this chapter, it just hits the right tenor. I check this story for updates all the time...and I've never met a chapter I didn't enjoy. I love their exchanges, and how you use dialog to unfold both the story and the complexity of the character (particularly spike), moving it at a fast clip, rather than long expository paragraphs telling us how they feel.
I love that Spike is a lot sweeter, but you never lose him to the point where it becomes cringeingly so, and he never quite loses his edge. And Buffy's the way cool girlfriend I wish she could have been sometimes during a certain season in canon. ; )

Thank you so much! I'm glad you're enjoying it! Well, since Buffy and Spike didn't have sex for so long, they need some, LOL. And I'm not opposed to Spuffy smut, either, and since they're actually together now, I figure they'll be having sex all the time. But I won't be going into details and will probably gloss over it in a paragraph or two each time, because 1, this fic is only rated R, and 2, this fic is going to go on long enough without extra sex chapters added in, LOL.
Also, I've found that dialogue is my thing. I can describe events and such if I need to, but I'd rather have the characters talking to each other about what they're thinking than to have each of them thinking about how they feel. And I like a Spike who doesn't lose his edge, who's even still a little bit dangerous, even if he is in love with Buffy. I'm glad you liked the chapter, and thanks for reviewing!

this is by far my favorite story the relationship of buffy and spike progresses slowly they arent together in the sex way for a while but there is an intimicy that you cant deny you played it very well i think that is one of the most beliveable story out there thankyou so much for you commitment and dedication of this piece of art
Thank you so much! I'm glad you're liking it! I have tried to build up their relationship slowly and naturally. Thanks for reviewing!

I'm so glad you found the time to update this. The relationship does feel quite "real" -- and it's nice that Spike still gives off an older-man vibe.
Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it! Well, Spike *is* much older, LOL...
