LoVeD iT!!!!! i still want to kill you for being soooooo evil.....but then you couldnt finish the story and i would have to go into hiding to escape the murder charges and thats just waaaaaaaay too much work for me....so consider yourself lucky!!!! lol

Author's Response: *lol* Thank God you changed your mind then. ;) And I do consider myself lucky, no worries. ;) Thanks for your comment!

Thank god Anne knocked some sense into Spike!! He needed a nice kick in the butt, making decisions affecting Buffy without Buffy. Sounds like something a certain broody character would do and I just couldn't take it if my favorite vampire left Buffy because of some phooey excuse.

I absolutely LOVEEEEE this fic. I can't wait for their real perfect night. I'm sure it'll be amazing!!! I just love this fic. Hehe. Can't wait for more!!!!

Author's Response: *giggles* Yep,Anne only lacked the smack on the head. Thank you so much for your lovely review, I'm so glad you've enjoyed it up until this point. I just hope I don't disappoint with thier perfect night.

AHHHHHHHHHHH, AWWWWWWW, YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OMFG IM SOOOOOOOO HAPPY THAT HE WENT AFTER HER AND THEY THEYRE BACK TOGETHER AND HES GOING TO CLAIM HER!!! i LOVE!!! this story so much and am so happy that u updated. im sooooo glad that things worked out well and i cant wait to read when he claims her. i really hope that everything goes well and that they can be together forever now. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE update as soon as u can, i no i always say this but again i CANT wait to read wat happens next. THANX SOOO MUCH, U KICK A HUGE AMOUNT OF ASS!!

Author's Response: Awww, thank you so much for your review, you always manage to make me smile. *smoooches* I'm delighted you enjoyed the chapter!

I know you said you were only going to do one more chapter, but If I may suggest...

Do two more. One with the claiming and whatnot and the last like, fifty years in the future, to show how "eternity" is treating the love birds... :)

Author's Response: Hee, I plan on doing two. One for the claimingi and the other will be a sort of epilogue, just not quite. Plus the lovely Sotia has suggested I could do a few one-shots through the years, so I' might try to do that. Thank you so much for reviewing!

God, woman, I loved this chapter. I'm glad Buffy finally listened to him and you have me anxiously awaiting the next chapter. I'm still fanning myself from when Spike got all growly and ripped the door off. Damn, that was hot;)

Author's Response: Yay! I'm glad you loved the chapter. :D Hee, he's quite something when he gets all growly, isn't he? *sighs dreamily* Thanks for your lovely comment, darling!

Fabulous!!! Can't wait to read Chapter 21!! great job.

Author's Response: Thank you, darling! With any luck it will be posted over the weekend. *crosses fingers*

absolutely loved it. Brilliant! Wish I had a man like that! So well written that I could see it all unfolding in my mind! More please!

Author's Response: Awww, thank you, what a lovely review. I'm glad you think so. :D More soon, I promise.

*Sniffs*, the a/n made me cry just as much as the tender reunion you gave Buffy and Spike at the end. God how I adored Anne's sharp tongue and Giles........... super funny, totally cracked me up. Buffy was justified in her rantings but of course I'm happy she relented to Spike's tactics of kissing some sense INTO her, giggles. A truly, superb A-1 chapter sweety. Rubs hands together excitedly for the next chapter - oh yeah, you just KNOW its going to be mui cliente... mucho amor, mi hermanita,. Hope i got that right.

Author's Response: Awwww, didn't mean to make you cry, but I told you I was inspired. *hugs* You inspire my muse and I to keep trying and not give up, so many things I am thankful for with you, darling. Thank you again for everything. *besos* Te amo, hermanita! And yep, you got it very right, it, I have a wonderful Spanish student. ;)

I read it twice it was so good! ;)

Author's Response: Oh, thank you! I'm so happy you enjoyed it. :D

LOVED IT!! :D

Author's Response: Yay! I'm glad! Thanks for reviewing!

I couldn't review each chapter, I was racing through them so fast...but , please, please, please next chapter?!?!?!  I LOVE IT!

Author's Response: Awww, thank you, darling. I'm so happy you're enjoying the story so much!

Two words.................Perfect Twist

Author's Response: Thank you so much, darling! I'm ecstatic you think so!

Lordy, how matters of the heart get all jumbled with the head interferes. Think she had a bad case of the pot calling the kettle black when she accused him of only seeing & understanding what he wants to. Really think it's her that's not understanding what he's trying to tell her. And, please Lord, let Spike stop Giles from taking her back to London. Lordy, this has me so on the edge of my seat, that I'm going to be haunting this place til the next updates posted. (BTW, I love Echoes, as well, and you're wrong. This story is just as good as Echoes. Congrats on the awards!)

Author's Response: That's so very true, how matters of the heart get all jumbled when the head interferes. Keep in mind, though, Buffy is very young, around 24-25 I think, and just got rejected, when she'd been absolutely sure that would never happen. She was hurt, thinking he just wanted to use her, which was an honest mistake, really. Spike didn't handle it much better, I think. I promise you won't have to wait endlessly until this is resolved, though. I hope to post the next chapter a little later tonight (Wednesday). Thanks for reviewing and for what you told at the end. *blushes*
