Loved the Spike and Gunn interaction, I'm happy he has a friend inside....and I hope they stay friends....... Buffy, I loved her email to Spike, now I just hope he reads it soon.

I want to watch "The Crow" SO bad right now after seeing those lyrics to "Burn" in this chapter:) Great job!

Author's Response: Why do you think I used that song? I had just watched The Crow lol. Best sound track ever made. Damn, now I have to go watch it ;)

I loved EVERYTHING about this chapter! These lines were so absolutely perfect for Buffy's character in this story -- "Normal people meet, date for a while, learn to appreciate the other person, and eventually, learn to love the other person. That’s life. That’s REAL life. But to Buffy, it all sounded too boring to bear and she’d decided that she’d rather be single forever and dream." -- That entire paragraph was just phenomenal. The dialogue, both inner and shared with Giles, just sparked. You have such a way with dialogue, like no one else I know. The Buffyisms, snarkage, and quippage just zings and zags. Very nice work. I like pouty, pity party Buffy too. So glad Giles is seriously considering this situation. I just hope Spike doesn't freak out too much during those 3 days while Giles is thinking and Buffy is resting. Poor Spike, left out of the loop. Must read more now! Oh, the suspense! The drama! The hangover that Buffy's gonna have!

Author's Response: And I should dedicate this paragraph your talking about to my mother and her constant speeches about how I should give some nice boy a chance and maybe learn to love him eventually instead of waiting for story books love that doesn't exist. Argh, just saying that sounds boring lol. That was my inspiration :D Thanks for all your amazing compliments Rana. It gives me the motivation to keep writing.

Excellent update! You're best chapter yet and that's saying A LOT since there was no Spuffyness! I especially loved the first paragraph, but the whole chapter was just wonderful. You could feel the sorrow and indecision- great job! And I'm so glad you mentioned Buffy's hair, because at one point I thought 'the poor thing could lose everything and her hair is chopped up' LOL! Wonderful job and you definitely deserve the weekly poll!

Author's Response: Thanks, you're the best.

I hope she tries to make an effort to get him out of jail...now that this is all settled and get Angel and Darla in jail.

well, i personally loved the story from the beginning, and we all knew this little bit of angst was going to come because it was obvious someone was going to find out about Spike and Buffy sooner or later ;P I really loved these last chapters, and no i don't think they have fallen in love real quick :) Please keep writing and sending chapters, 'cause i love this fic!! (as i said before in one of my reviews, this story is in my favorite's section :P lol).

omg how can u leave me nging like that i so love this story and i cant wait to read more. its so interesting i cant believe how great a writer u are i mean its so interesting please update soon thanx for writing

omg that was so good. i hope he doesn't fire her and i hope all goes well. i love how you should all sides of how everyone was feeling and i can't wait to find out what happends next. and i hope you feel better soon as well. please update soon

omg! Please don't leave us hanging! My stomach is just in knots over what Giles' verdict will be. Arrrgh. Poor Buffy. Finally lets her heart lead her and this is what happens. I felt totally helpless along with Spike. You wrote his frustration, fear, helplessness just perfectly. Buffy's as well. I can't wait to see if Buffy loses her job. Please update soon!

Oh poor Buffy......can't Giles remember what it is to be young and in love......if anything I think he'd be perfect in the scheme of entrap Angel and Darla....and I think Faith would hlep too. Both of them would want to help someone that might have been set up.....LOL, please, LOL

Oh you tease, keeping us waiting for the bug showdown. Keep em coming
