spike is a criminal that Joyce invites to stay at her house

hi guys! I'm looking for a fic where spike is a criminal or something of the sort and therefore can't find a place to stay so Joyce invites him to stay at her house and Buffy gets upset (she lives there also). Sorry, but that's all I remember and I could have gotten some of the facts wrong. It was a long time since I read the fic.

I believe you are looking for:

Something Worth Fighting For By Moxie

Summary :The premise is that William spent two years in prison for a crime he didn't commit and the story begins at the point at which he starts to rebuild his life. He'll find himself working with Buffy, sparks fly (of course) but she's got to get him to believe in himself again before he can love her.

Thanks, but that's not the story I was looking for.

Really? Because that is exactly the plot of this story. That would mean there's another identical plot out there... so weird. Huh.

I have no idea then. Sorry.

Sorry, my mistake. I got confused by the site. I realized that it was the right story when I started reading it. Thanks so much for your help!

Oh, good then. You're welcome.
