"Warn your granddaughters about me."

Wonderful, absolutely the funniest read with an Alpha, dangerous Spike!  My word, how lovely and decadent and sexy.  What a charming last sentence to go along with his very generous investment.  She was wise to sample his charms deedy do and fortunate to have survived the encounter.   Thank you so much for such a clever bit of a read!  Sounded just like my favorite vampire!

Loved innocent Buffy. She's so cute.
She is! Hard to match up S7 Martyr Buffy with S1 Perky Buffy. Thank goodness for fanfic. ;)

What a wonderful read. The slow build of the friendship was delightful, and their alley encounter was steamy. That was a killer last line.

This is such a fun story! I'm not typically a huge fan of AUs, but this one works!

As I see you've started a sequel, I'm off to give that a try!

Holy shit.




that was amazingly good. Good to know even if Buffy wasn't the Slayer her and Spike'd be at it.

Hey, thanks! And yeah, I kinda think they were meant to be ...

Ooo nice out of the ordinary piece. Love that last line! Neat how you kept Spike genuinely dangerous but somewhat tamed by Buffy.

Kathleen
Thanks, Kathleen! Glad you enjoyed. And what can I say? I like my Spike dangerous. ;)

This was good... why did Spike have to leave? *pouts* Oh well, grea story.
Thanks, Missy - and I'm working on a sequel. I agree that they can't stay apart forever ...

That fic was great, but damn it was too short! Great four chapters. Great ending!
Thanks, Dee. I'm working on a sequel. ;)

I love this new Spike. The story is very well written. I was sad to see that Buffy did not end up with Spike. Maybe you will write a sequel. If you don't I have to image one myself.
Thanks, Lynda! Glad you enjoyed ... and there's a sequel in the works, but don't let that stop your imagination ....

Oh my.....I was sure he was going to be with her or turn her.....but I guess he let his love for her grow to the point he thought of her future and not about his wants and needs.......

Lovely
Thanks so much! And yeah, I kinda hate that they didn't run away together, but I'm working on a sequel. ;)

02/10/2007 02:06 am
That was so freaking awesome. :) So great, fantastic, wonderous-- loved it! AND HOT! Did I mention hot? HOT!!!
Hey, thanks! Glad you enjoyed.

What a great encounter that she has with Spike. She gets to admire him, have a casual friendship, a hot one night stand, and money for her college tuition and so much more. Think I'd be spending my $ on funds to Buenos Aires. Very fun romp.
Yes, I think this is the life lesson where Buffy finds out that sometimes bad decisions work out better than we could have ever imagined. ;) I hear you about Bs. As., though ... right now, anywhere is better than the frozen MidAtlantic!

02/07/2007 12:03 am
That was...WOW. Awesome story! :)
Thanks, Xela. Glad you liked it!

02/06/2007 07:26 pm
oh wow....i so hope that's not the end....is it??? it has been great so far, but i really hope he's not gone for good...great story, love :)
Working on a sequel - I hate to say good-bye, too!

02/06/2007 07:00 am
Wow, he really did like her! Sorry that he left, how is she ever going to have grandchilren after being with him. He's may be a one night stand but it was a memoriable night! Wonderful fic, thanks for sharing and posting the entire story.
Yup, he liked her alright. And I'd agree that Spike would pretty much ruin a girl for all other guys - lol!

02/06/2007 05:33 am
I'd love to see a sequel of this! (Preferably with Buffy and not her granddaughters)
Thanks for reading - and don't worry, there's a sequel coming, set just a few years in the future, so no granddaughters. LOL!

02/06/2007 04:40 am
This certainly was a bask and glow ending!
I know ... Thanks so much for reading & reviewing, Joyce.

02/06/2007 02:57 am
great last line. loved the tale, thank you.
Thanks - and I appreciate the reviews!

02/06/2007 12:19 am
LOL Well, I've got to say, I didn't see that coming. I love it, actually. Not usually fond of normal human Buffy, but the love 'em and leave Spike is awesome.
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed it.

02/06/2007 12:09 am
*giggle* Love it!
Glad you enjoyed!

Very sweet of him to give her the money and send the note after their time together. I'm sure she wasn't expecting even that much. Does make one curious why he chose to leave so soon if he was going to be so generous.
I think that, in this 'verse, everyone has this kind of cultivated ennui about vampires. And so Spike is charmed by this sheltered, idealistic young woman who somehow is tough or curious or stupid enough to stick around. Willow and Gunn might be in the know, but they're not his friends. And so Buffy gets close - and I think Spike leaves because that's unfamiliar and intimidating. Anyway, thanks for reading & reviewing.

Awwww, he left.....well, a girl can't be too mad when she receives a gift like that! Hee hee...warn the grandaughters...William got spooked.
Thanks for reading - and you're exactly right, he did get spooked.

Loved this fic. But I'm torn. This was an excellent ending. But I also really really really want more. Would you do a sequel? I'd even be willing to beg. ; ) Please?
No begging required! I'm working on the sequel. ;)

Awww, too bad they couldn't stay together. Great fic, hon!!
Thanks for reading! And I hated to tear them apart, but it just seemed impossible ... right now, at least.

Oh is that all. Why can't there be more. It was so different. I would love to read more in this world. Do you do sequels?
I'm working on one now! And I know, it isn't a terribly satisfying end to the story.
