Phew! I'm so glad that Hank is actually trying to be a good guy here! I thought he'd be a total bastard and drag Buffy away kicking and screaming lol

Still so sad about Joyce :( But Spike is really showing that she can count on him, which is of the good!

I know my opinion is a little late, but I'd love the story to focus on Spike more - I can't help it he's my most fave character lol Not that I haven't enjoyed it to this point, cos still reading and loving 19 chapters into it lol

*Smooches*

Mmmm yeah, if Buffy won't go for getting 'adulthood' she depends on her father now.
Didn't think Hank would take responsibility now and staying. For Buffy this is the easiest, can she finish her school now.

Enjoyed this chappie very much. I'm so glad Hank decided to let her stay in SunnyD, it would have been awful to move.Thank God Angel is still in jail ...hope he rots. As for input. it would be nice to have B and S taking care of Dawn sometime, so they could get a sense of parenting and for Spike to get to see his dad again,cause right now he's a real SOB.Also for Spike's music career to be something good for him. :)

Can't wait for more!

Author's Response: Thanks Ami! I don't think Angel's going to be much of a problem anymore. Though of course, he leaves many problems in the wake of what he's done. Lots more to come soon!

Great chapter. I'm glad that Hank's not taking Buffy away from Sunnydale, not something she needs. The only idea I can think of for this story is maybe have Spike's dad show up in some way, other than just being an unheard voice on the other line. Just a thought. Look forward to the next chapter. :)

Author's Response: :) Thanks! Yeah, definitely a good idea about Spike's dad! Thanks!

Poor Buffy. Losing her mom because of Angel. Good thing she has Spike in her life. Can't wait for the next update!

Author's Response: Thank you! Yeah, it's good that Spike's got her back, that's for sure!

lovely story. You love your baby ones don't you? haha....I'm glad Hank is not taking her away, he realized that Buffy would just hate him more if he did. He can't be selfish at a time like this and put his needs first...some fathers do that. I think its a bit symbolic that Hank and Buffy end up where they are...two people who made mistakes sharing the same house....guess they can relate to each other again.

Input: Could have Buffy conversing with Dawn a bit...practice her mothering on this kid, but at the same time have that torn feeling about how this child was the cause to all Buffy's problems to start with. Maybe if Buffy warms up to Dawn, Spike can too...would be fun to have him play 'Big Brother Spike'.
Hope this music career can be something big too...Spike seems in the dumps and needs some confidence in himself so he can take care of his girl and baby.

Author's Response: Thank you! I really enjoy baby stories, and there just aren't enough Spuffy baby fics. I love reading them, because I like putting Spike in the position of 'daddy'. :) I think you're spot on about Buffy and Spike. Despite the hurt he caused their family, and the guilt he's most likely gonna feel for leaving and this happening, he's still her father, and he's really the only family she's got left, aside from Spike and Dawn. Thanks for your input, too! I'm already thinking about a meeting between Dawn and Buffy. My idea is to put Spike and Buffy in a position where they'll be playing house. With Hank's job, he's going to be at work a lot, and while Dawn'll be in school (she's kindergarten age) she'll still need adult supervision...and there's where Buffy and Spike come in. And the music is definitely going to be a bigger plotline for Spike. :)

Oh wow. This story has been intense so far. I hope that Spike and Buffy pull through.

Hmmm. Could be a girl...or maybe a Boy. Who knows only you get to decide lol. Doesn't have to be a Joy..Could be a Jake.

You are right about Spike being more of a supporting character right now, but that is what he is the supportive soon father to be. That is because all this is happening to Buffy centrally. I personally don't mind it, it just Works for the story you are telling at this point, and as the story goes on you can Shift it to spuffy centered family oriented...If that makes any sense at all lol.

Oh and what is Spike's fathers name...Giles maybe? Or just an unnamed arsehole..and what about Spike's mother and step mother..just some questions floating around my head, not really important questions, just curious questions.

Author's Response: Thanks! I haven't quite settled on the sex of the baby, but I'm pretty sure I know what I'm gonna decide. Not telling though. I like the name Jake, but it brings up too many bad memories from older fan fictions from another fandom I used to write, and the character of Jake was usually the bad guy. Haha...:) Thanks for your honesty about Spike's character. The story's definitely going to take on a more family-centered feel very soon. Actually as soon as the next chapter, when we'll see some development in the mending between Buffy and her dad and introducing little Dawnie properly to her sister. Spike's father isn't Giles in this. I think I'll reveal his name in the next chapter. He's just a character...not one from the show. I thought about having a character be his father, but I figured that Giles is often Spike's father in fan fics, as is Ethan Rayne, so I figured, eh, he'll just be a normal guy. LOL...:) More to come soon!

Dad coming back.. surprise.. and his attittude toward Spike - even more so..

Enjoying

Author's Response: Yeah, I think Hank's trying to play it safe right now, so he doesn't lose what relationship he has left with Buffy. I'm sure he's gonna have his issues with their relationship down the road, but he won't really be able to do anything about it. Ashley
