i love the tension between these two, the fact that they're not all loverly with each other...great chapter :)

*evil grin* great chapter - here spike is being funny and Buffy is just like I will kill you. Kinda spoils the after sex cuddles!

Spike’s light-hearted banter/taunting was great. It was very in-character for him to go all with the relationship talk! Very nicely done.

Definitely one twisted story. Very dark. Well written though. I don't read this one always as soon as you have an update (at SR or here) because I need to be in a certain frame of mind to handle certain subjects. I am interested in seeing where you go next with this one.

This is the third time one of my reviews has taken some ecstasy... I don't know. Anyway... “You can't just screw a guy, then threaten to kill him, break up with him, and then steal his clothes. That has to be my all time favourite line ever! I love this chapter! He's so nasty, yet sweet. I think that Spike's ability to be nice while being bad is one his best attributes ;) I can't even pick out the paragraphs I like best cause this whole chapter was sooooo good. More please!!!

Wonderfully dark and twisted...keep going, please :)

LOL, poor spike all slayer whipped

You can?t just screw a guy, then threaten to kill him, break up with him, and then steal his clothes.

Just stayed up waaay too late catching up with this story. I love it! Reminding us that Spike was still an evil vampire when he cameback to Sunnydale - even if he is harboring feelings he doesn't want to admit for the Slayer, it hasn't changed his basic nature. And excellent job of portraying an unfeeling, uncaring Buffy years before the events of the show made her so.Will be anxiously watching for an update.
