Each of us deserves to be loved for who we actually are as opposed to someone's dream which becomes a barrier to knowing.  Very insightful chapter!

Hm- I'm thinking Buffy should have helped Spike with that first shower ...

You're starting to scare me; I'm almost afraid to open the next chapter for fear of what's gonna happen!!! So...good story then!! lOL!
LOL

A little scare is not a bad thing! BFN.

Sue, you're killing me here! Buffy said her final goodbye to "her" Spike, dressing his successor in bright colored clothes and looks for the possibilies her future now holds. Depending on how it ends, I will probably beg for a sequal! LOL

Very good build up to the finish for the next chapter. The storyline is very thorough and intriguing. You brought many different aspects, emotions, and settings into this piece. I really enjoyed it.
Thank you! That's such a pleasure to know.

Go away Willow!
LOL! That would have left a big blank in the story - but so know what you mean.

Thanks for reviewing.

Thank you! I'm so glad you're enjoying. Hope that sniff isn't a cold coming on! LOL

Thanks for the salvo of reviews -most appreciated.

Gah! It seems like there is way too much that still needs to happen for there to be only one more chapter! I know, you mentioned a sequel, but still! Sigh. Guess I'll just have to be patient and see how this one ends. I'll be sure to check for the update ASAP!
Thank you for your email, Coquine. Your perspective has been very helpful (I'm still pondering it!).

Last chapter is now up and I hope you will like it. Thanks for being such a consistent reviewer - you know it means a lot. BFN

Goodbye, Spike. I’ll never ever forget you. Never stop praying to the – whatever – that you’re in a good place. Never stop being thankful for having known you, for having loved you. I am so, so sorry that it was too late. Silly, I sorta want to ask for your blessing. Which is all sorts of weird! I don’t love him, not yet. But there’s something there.

Asking for his blessing. . . you made me cry.

And yes, you've entertained me.
Thank you, Niamh! Didn't mean to make you cry (but I seem to recall having the odd sniffle myself when writing that bit). I'm so gald that it entertained as well - all I can ever ask for.

Thanks for reviewing and hope you enjoy the last (the one I'm now worrying about) chapter. BFN.

You are a superb writer. I cannot begin to figure how you are going to wrap this up in one chapter...but, if anyone can,I sure it's you. This HAS been more than simply entertaining. It has been heart warming. And, I can hardly wait 'til tomorrow. Thank you.
Thank you so much, gaillee! The flattery is very nice - but it does make me blush! It pleases me muchly that you have been entertained in a heart warming way. I thought it might be a bit too fluffy but couldn't help myself.

Last chapter is up and I hope you will enjoy it. Thanks for your lovely reviews - they mean a lot. BFN.

Ohhh, cliffhanger...

Thank goodness she gave the boy some hope. He's so fragile and tender.
LOL! That was a cliffhanger? I'll try that more often then.

Methinks you have a soft spot for the lad. Me too.

Thanks for reviewing and hope the last bit meets with your approval. BFN.

*is desperate for last chapter* How are you going to make this all work out in one chapter????
Last chapter up, Patti! I am now worrying like a mad thing that the last chapter will be a disappointment - but it's done now. Ho hum!

Thanks for reviewing and am keeping fingers crossed that the last bit is okay for you. BFN.

I like the positive attitude Buffy has about the gift she's been given. I think it was a nice touch that she wrote her Spike a heartfelt goodbye. Wonderful chapter!
Thank you, Irina! I'm pretty fond of this Buffy - so far. I just hope she remembers all her good intentions in the sequel! LOL

Thank you for reviewing and I hope you like the last chapter too. BFN.

Another great chapter. At first blush I thought the mean words said by Spike to Buffy would not be remedied so quickly. It is wonderful that you gave Buffy such insight. Unfortunately on the show they never portrayed Buffy as a deep thinker. This story is wonderful. I just hope that Willow's arrival won't ruin things.
Thank you, Bridget! We'll never know if Buffy could have or would have developed in this way - or what her thoughts would have been if she learned that Spike was gone for good.

Thanks for al your reviews and enthusiasm. I hope you enjoy the last chapter.

Good chapter.I've been waiting all day for this as I missed school because I'm sick.The missing school part and staying home to play on the computer for ten hours is fun though.It's the stuffed up nose and the sinus headache that made the day bad. Update soon.I hope Spuffy finally get together.

I do hope this finds you feeling better - sinus headaches are so not fun! Not to mention the bunged up nose!

Hope you like the last bit. Thanks for reviewing. BFN.

I can't believe that there is only one chapter left to go! I am loving this story and am dying to see what Buffy is writing to Giles and what Willow will find when she gets to the cottage! Tomorrow just seems so far away.............(sigh).......
I am now worrying that the last chapter will be a disappointment! But remember that there will be a sequel -and that it was written as a birhday pressie in under a month (shows you how slowly I type!).

Do hope you enjoy the ending and that you come back one last time. BFN... I hope.
