Wow! The end of this chapter was a shocker.  That came out of left field.

WOW I just found this story great job so far!  I think you did great with Buffy so far I really dont think she would have done a turn around so fast and other stories have done.  Great job can't wait for more!~

Just like Spike, we wait for the Buffy-of-old/now to emerge - but she doesn't.  Through his anxiety, his hesitation, his waiting for the froideur and violence after the passion, he misses just how deep her penitence, how hard a struggle she has with herself and in her trying to convince him.  It's a marvellous chapter, right at the heart of them, right at that unbeating heart of them and yet it is full, full of something ...... (sshh ...whisper it so as not to jinx it) tentatively tender and very, very real.  I love it.

This was such a fabulous chapter - both of them so vulnerable. I can hardly wait for your next update.
Thanks!!!

Buffy has taken huge strides if she's able to empathise.  Great update. 
Thanks!

This is just what all three of them need - get back together and find themselves, accept what their reality is now and live within that place.  My little Spuffy Heart hopes that their place would include a family made up of Dawn, Buffy and Spike - but life sometimes, probably most of the time, does not give you your desires.  Unless you try very very hard to make your dreams come to play in the real world.

Thanks so much for this new update -

Thank you!

Thank goodness Buffy has stopped the 'poor me' for long enough to think of Dawn.
I hope The Return isn't too painful for everyone...
Thanks!!
