Woo-hoo! Buffy finally comes to her senses... I really liked this chapter, especially the way you had Buffy leave. It was heartbreaking, but she did it out of pride and out of love for Spike. Very nicely done :)

like I said Does he love you would be very good for this story, but great for Buffy for demanding it all! she deserves it! wonderful chapter!

Author's Response: I looked up the lyrics and you're right, it does fit with the story. I tried to download the song, but it wouldn't let me. Reba's part of the song isn't 100% accurate of my version of Drusilla, but you'll start to find that out in the next chapter. Thanks for reviewing!

This is soooooo good. And you write so well! I'm sure I've told you that before, but I'm doing it again.

*sob* Got tears in my eyes now. That was hard to write I think, hard for Buffy too. It's on him to decide what he wants now - the peaceful little family he has home with Dru (well, I don't know if she cared so much before for him, I remember reading something but I'm not sure yet) or Buffy - his now found love - will say the woman which he knews now that he loves her. A clean slate for a new start - one way or another - I decided for Spuffy if I had to choose.

I finally caught up on my reading! I'm glad I waited until you reached the 9 chapter mark because I would have bitten my nails down waiting for each chapter. As it is, I can't wait until the next one! This chapter was absolutely heartbreaking! It definitely needed to happen but it sure hurt the heart to read. Not one thing I would change about this story. Although now I'm really really curious about what it would have been like if you did go darker!

Author's Response: Glad you're all caught up! I know it was heartbreaking to read (it was very hard to write), but it did need to happen. To answer your curiosity, the darker version would have featured an almost completely unredeemable Spike. Pretty much, him as a bastard who wouldn't give a damn about Buffy (as it is now, he at least tries to comfort her when she's hurting) and he probably wouldn't have let her leave. I decided it would have been too draining to write it that way (I'm emotionally exhausted with this story as it is). I do plan on writing a VERY dark fiction (eventually), but I will probably end up posting the story as a whole on my website, that way it wouldn't be as hard to read. It will be a while, because this story has taken a lot out of me (hence, co-writing False Pretenses and being able to unwind with comedy/fluff). Thank you for reviewing!

bravo Buffy. the first step of many towards a more self-actualized life. both Buffy and Drusilla deserve to be the only woman to someone who loves them to their fullest. right now, Spike is not that man. i just hope he can get his shit together before any irreversable actions (such a bringing a child into the world) are carried through. thanks for such a brilliant chapter.

Wow. Heartbreaking. Of course I know that things will work out in the end, but that was seriously tear-jerking. Bring on the next chapter!

My heart broke with Buffy's heart , and I felt Spike's despair so sharply.. This was a chapter so hard to read , so incredibly painful. But of course it was the right decision for Buffy , to try to find some of her own self-esteem. Make it better , as soon as you can , please ?

Heartbreaking, but the right decision, for both. They have to sort their lives out before they (maybe) can be together again. Fantactic story, please update soon!!!

This was fantastic. So sad, and yet, so true. No matter how much they love each other, this relationship is stopping both of them from living life to the fullest (so long as Spike is married, anyway). Spike can never fully enjoy any life he has with either woman because thoughts of his "other" life will always be nagging at him. And Buffy is really getting a raw deal. She deserves to be the ONLY woman, not the other woman. She can never have the husband and kids and real life when Spike is only there when he can sneak away. It's ironic, really, that throughout this whole fic, Spike has been the "strong" one, but when it came down to it, Buffy displayed way more strength than he ever did. And that is not to knock Spike, just an observation.

*sob* That was heartwrenching....but it had to be done. I'm glad Buffy is walking away, and hopefully it will make Spike realizes what he's lost and make some hard decisions in his life. Great chapter...can't wait for the next one. =)
