Glad to see that you updated! I've been missing this story! I am unsure about Spike's mom spilling the secrets to his past and not Spike himself. That would irritate me in the same situation, just saying. Still a great update though!

Author's Response: Thanks hun, sorry about making you wait for long interval, I am trying really hard to get my life together so I can start posting weekly. Yeah, I know it's a bit iffy isn't it... worries me how Buffy will act around him and how Spike will act when he finds out. Thank you hunni! xxx

Poor Dawn, I bet she was so scared...Im amazed that they didn't take her, too. Added insurance, and all. Can't wait to find out what Spike does to Dru, hope he tears her limbs off and beats her with them!

Great chapter!

Author's Response: Yeah poor little sweetheart she was... I know where Buffy is, and I didn't want Dawn to be in that situation... Igot out of having to let them take Dawn, by thinking they could use her as a messenger. Hehehe oh you'll like what Spike does to Dru... and I'm gonna really enjoy writing it... she's got some stuff coming! Thanks hunni! xxx

Read this update a little while ago, but didn't have time to leave a review. Couldn't let a fellow writer not get all the response they deserve, right? Great story, I really enjoyed the plot line, characterization (especially of Spike, well done) as well as the extremely talented creativity of alternate worlds. I often wondered while reading this why there weren't more reviews. Seems strange to me since I, personally, think this is a great story and should get more recognition than it did. Anyway, looking forward to more from you! Keep up the great work!

Author's Response: Thank you. It's very nice of you to take the time. I'm a little surprised about the lack of reviews too, considering how popular the prequel was. However, readers come and go and it was posted so long ago that many readers probably haven't read it. This one wasn't all that Spuffy for quite a while, either. :) Anyway, the reviews I have received have all been very thoughtful and positive, so it's all good! :)

Sadly, I can't remember if I read ZoeGrace's prequel and probably won't ever be able to since she took her work of the BSV. However, I really really really enjoyed your continuation either way. Great job!


Author's Response: Thanks. I'm sorry you can't find Zoe's anymore. It was cute. Much shorter than this, just a one-shot that had Spike thinking to kill Buffy while she was drunk, only to get distracted when "cave Buffy" decides that he smells good. :)

Glad to have you back, babes! Poor Spike, Buffy is being a right bitch about the situation. I loved the scene where Dawn put her in her place, or at least tried to make Buffy remove her head from her arse. Thankfully, someone in the Summer's family has some sense. Of course, I'm sure that Joyce would say the same thing if she was able. Hmm...maybe a miraculous recovery for dear old Mom so that she can help Buffy see the error of her ways?

Great chapter. Very hot and very sad, as well as maddening! LoL! Thanks for all the wonderful reviews you left for FP, I will be heading to that section to reply here shortly; just had to read this update first!



Author's Response: Hi honey, long time no speak. I just had to read your new one yesterday, and had to review. Thanks for continuing with this story even though it seems to have taken forever. The muse is back big time and there will updates quicker than you think......

Grr...I really just want to jump into this story and kick Buffy's scrawny little ass. (At least that way I'd get Spike, right?) She's just being so darned pigheaded about the whole stupid thing! Even so, great update!
It seems like your muse has returned and mine has went on hiatus. Crazy.

Author's Response: Hi T, my muse is back big time just as my laptop had to go to hospital. I have to bring my work laptop home, and as everything is tracked I can't update for a good few days - Grrrr - but think of all the updates at one go

Just finished your story, it had been on my favs list for a while now, but I waited until it was done to read it all. Great characterization! Love the way you perfectly captured every detail of Spike down to the cocky fanginess. Brilliant!

I've had this story on my favorites list for a while now waiting for that lovely completed mark to appear so that I could read it. However, my plans fell through when I got really bored last night and decided to go ahead and give in to temptation.

And, boy...am I glad that I did! This is just a brilliant story, so well written and imaginative, that I couldn't stop reading until after 5 this morning! Since I didn't have time to review then, was getting off work, I made a note to come back and let you know how much I am enjoying this story. The intensity and passion in not only your characters, but your writing style, seriously had me tearing up more than once with both saddness and overwhelming awe.

You are a very talented writer and I cannot wait for not only the next update, but more stories from your amazing mind. Thank you for such a wonderful story!

~Serenity

Author's Response: Oh wow! I'm in awe at your kind words! *blushes* Many, many thanks for giving my story a chance, even if it's not finished yet. Just one more chapter to go though, I think. I'm ecstatic you enjoyed the story, it's my favorite of mine so knowing you like it so much, makes me soo very happy. Thank you again for your lovely review, darling! *hugs*

Summary: What if the drug Dana gave Spike put him in coma? What if he couldn't or wouldn't wake up? What if Angel went into his mind and found out exactly how Spike felt about Buffy? Who would he call?
