I hope she IS strong enough for this! Loved Fred in this chapter, she's adorable.

What is the deal with all the anonymous people?

I liked the story, and even if I did get a little confused about the ending, it still left me feeling kinda fluffy inside, altho´i wouldnt say no to a sequel.

Okay... that was a big ol' cheat. The last two chapters were more of a telling than a showing. Not only was it totally out of character for the both of them (Buffy screwing Owen, and Spike screwing no one), the ending was all quick and "blah." If you really appreciated your loyal readers, you'd fix these last two chapters- as in delete and start over. Redeem yourself as a fic writer and fix it...

well written, it gave off the innocence it should do for a girl who losing her virginity to someone, especially someone she loves :D

lmao at situation

I really was confused by and didn't like the ending. She came back four years after college or four years after her first time there meaning before she ever went to New York? The angst you created at the end was some of the most interesting and exciting in the whole story, but you didn't really seem to go anywhere with it. Maybe that was just me because the end just confused me. I'm just not sure they ever got back together or what might have happened. I feel like you just stopped the story rather than chose an end for it. I understand the concept of leaving things open ended, but this didn't even answer enough of what was going on at the end of the story to let me wonder what would happen next. The other thing that was odd was that Dawn was present in the diner toward the beginning and then just disappeared. I'm sorry to sound negative, but I'm feeling kind of 'the who whatting the how with huh?' about now.

Spent most of the day reading this and loved everything until Chapter 32. From then on I have to say that I felt cheated. I like my Spuffy to have a happy ending but understand that this is not always possible - unfortunately! With regard to Cordelia, I don't get her part in the story at all. Am I to understand that Angel kissed Buffy when he knew that Spike would see them? Was it pre-planned? If so why would Buffy accept her apology. They fought so hard to be together throughout and then Spike becomes "loves bitch" yet again. Lots of hard work I understand but the ending sucks. Sorry.

ooh, yay! baby talk, gotta love it. Love their banter--they're so completely adorable together!

Ooh, excellent ending line. Go Anya! and props to Hank for not freaking out (but then I guess Joyce gets most of the credit there) and to Spike, for showing just how much he cares. and that banner is lovely, by the way!

Woot! go Faith! they'll probably get in loads of trouble, but hey! at least Harmony's got a broken nose!

Absolutely adored it! exactly what I needed--just perfect!

I don't want things to fall apart! they're perfect the way they are! props to Joyce for being completely insightful and understanding--gotta love her when she's like that!

Good story!
