just read this whole story. for some reason I just kept passing it. Really glad that i decided to read it. It is a really good story.

Buffy should tell spike soon. I mean I had a friend who did the same thing. Kept it a secret for a really long time. the guy was so hurt to find out that the son he loved for 4 years wasn't really his. I mean of course he still loved him as his son. But still.

That is one thing good about female. You know for sure if the kid is yours. I always felf for those men who are lied too. And believe me it happens a lot. Dont see how women can do that.

Oh, and just want to say that you sound like you are a great family man. That is really sweet and wonderful. just like you are making spike in this story. wish i had a man like that.

keep up the good work.

Author's Response: Yeah, I... understand, how something like that can hurt (having been in a somewhat similar situation), and I may not think it right for a woman to... lie like that but... I understand how they could feel the need to do so. In this it was because Buffy was afraid of being alone, which is a fear that makes you do not so right things, but then again, she never said the words "it's yours" she just let him believe so, and didn't correct him. A lie, still, yes. And still wrong, but without it, we'd have no fic, and we wouldn't want that now, would we? lol ;P

I don't know how great of a family man I am, but I do consider myself one. I love both my sons, biological and not, and my wife. They're my world, and it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy to know that you can tell that much from my writing and a few author notes :)

Thank you for the review, love, and for giving this fic a chance :D

Awe to the chapter, so cute :) Oh yeah, it won't be getting smooth when Buffy tells him but hopefully he can forgive her because they love each other... ~ Till next chapter :)

Author's Response: Hopefully, yeah ;) Thank you for the review, sweet!

beautiful. I can hardly wait to read more. Please update soon.

Author's Response: Thank you, I'm glad you liked! :D

Oh I love it, my daughter has never been into Winnie the pooh, I think it is because we never had it on the tv. it wasn't on till she was 3.5 and by then in daycare during the time they had the show, I reconized the song right away, it just didn't seem like something Spike would sing to me.

More please.

Author's Response: Yeah, he probably wouldn't of sang that song, but I doubt a Sex Pistols' song would work in this... though they do have apt lyrics, "you're a liar..." :P It wasn't so much Winnie the Pooh that made me like the song, it was the fact that it's Kenny Loggins (did i just lose mad cool points in admitting that? lol) His music is... a guilty pleasure, I guess, and at least it's better than ABBA :P

Thank you for reviewing, sweet. Love to hear what you think :)

Aww, major cuteness all around. I downloaded the song. I have to know if it's the one I'm thinking of...lol! Probably not, but I downloaded it anyway. That manip is really pretty, had to snag that as well. As always, you're doing an amazing job with this fiction. It's hard to believe that you went over 20 chapters, huh? Keep the mushiness coming=)

Author's Response: Yep, over 20 chapters and the way I'm going, maybe another 20 more? LOL :P I'm hoping I can finish this anyways. I'm glad you're enjoying the mushiness, as little as it may be and thank you for the review :)

the name thing is so sweet. Annabeth is a beautiful name, and the whole William for a boy thing... that kind of stuff always gets to my mushy side *sniff, smile* lol

The song is gorgeous, too. Awesome choice :)

Author's Response: Well... you know my whole thing for traditional names... and Anna Elizabeth, is one that's always stuck with me. Thanks!
