Ch 7 was amazingly hot. Ch was very sexy but heartbreaking. O.K. explain to me WHY Buffy is even in the slightest bit interested in Riley now... I guess the whole point of B/S is that they are both a little dense Enlighten them soon please.

Author's Response: Ch 7 happened by accident believe it or not but I hate leaving these two a part. I really enjoyed writing Ch 8. It was time for some sweetness. Buffy and Spike are dense just like in the show. I hated the ending when she confessed to him and he came back with that shitty reply. It really killed it for me and I swore that I would write stories where it was obviously clear they both loved each other. Sorry, I had a moment there :) Thanks for reviewing

ooohhhh, liked it!!! i also "noticed" the end, when he "finished" inside of her, which means that she'll get pregnant... or not? :) Loved the chappy, loving the story, please keep sending ;)

Author's Response: Yeah...Spike finally did it...not that she would have stopped him...don't care much for the pregnancy idea...however if they keep that up may have to explore that maybe...only downside about AU you have that element..you know safe sex, pills etc...not that I promote unsafe sex...its just hard to make sound sexy or romantic...anyway...i'm glad you liked the chapter...Thank you for the review

Though i have to say 85 dollars for take aways? Man thats alot of money for food in a box.

Author's Response: Its New York and I was trying to make a point...remember Spike only drives a cab and he pays for everything...so he is spending some serious dough...Buffy is aware of this but everything is not always what it seems

I say: kick the Riley out of your life, girl, and keep the cabdriver. There. Easy. ;-)

i liked it :) it's nice to do sweet stuff once in a while LOL

that was so touching. it is clear that they both have feelings for each other. why doesn't Buffy break up with Riley? he hasn't been a decent boyfriend for a long time. and Spike is obviously doing everything for her that a good boyfriend does. i understand she would be gun shy going directly into another relationship moments after she ends one. but the most important thing is that she is happy with Spike, whereas Riley makes her doubt herself. she can't cling to the past and what she used to have with Riley. it will only bring her misery and regret. it's time to break up with the sod, mourn the death of her relationship, and try to forge something emotionally meaningful out of her affair with Spike. *end rant* anyhoo, loving this story. i was just wishing 2 hours ago that you would update, and i got my wish! i can see it now...i will win the lottery, get a call from JM, and make my boss cry tomorrow. yup, my luck is changin'. thanks again for a wonderful chapter! can't wait to see how 'the talk' with Riley goes!

Author's Response: Now if she breaks up with Riley then I only have one chapter left to write...sorry but I'm not done with this story yet...if you win the lottery I want my cut :), sorry but JM is in bed with me now...all for making the boss cry...Riley may just surprise you ha ha...thanks for the awesome feedback
