The way you dealt with the sex scene was gorgeous sweetie, I loved it. Really. Sometimes a lack of detail is sooooo much better than full blown description, and this was one of those instances. Fantastic chapter.

Don't feel bad about the missing sex scene! If you had written it even when you didn't feel comfortable about it, the result would've probably been less original. Your solution was actually very refreshing and helped to make this fic even more memorable. As a good writer you revealed just enough to still make the situation very erotic and sensual. Actually, I've enjoyed all the erotic scenes in this fic, because the stand out from the masses of NC-17 fiction. Keep it up!

I liked the chapter and I think it was fine there wasn't graphic sex. I am nervous about what price they will pay though. Hope I don't have to wait too long to find out.

Awe, Spike is more mad about spilling the sauce than Buffy is :) The first time... (and don't worry about the non-graphic).. she felt herself falling into a darkness she hadn't foreseen I hope she don't regret it. And it would be dear I hope she don't mean paying a price that is too high. I still cross my fingers for them. :) Good chapter!

The entire chapter was so adorable! They are so cute together and the way you wrote the sex scene was great, I thought.

I wouldn't go as far as saying you chickened out! lol.. You don't have to be graphic to make your point. In it's on way..it was kind of .....shocking. I mean shocking that just like that, they actually consumated their relationship after fighting it for so long. Spike and Buffy are like a drug to each other..They both know it's not right...or good for them..but they just couldn't seem to stop themselves.

I have some ideas of the "price" might end up being..I can't wait to see where you will end up here.. Great update!

Excellent writing. I think a graphic sex scene at that moment would have downplayed the emotion of the moment, the spontaneity of it. You did great. Loved it.

Don't be nervous, I really like this story so far, keep it coming and don't be afraid you are a good author and shouldn't fear too much.

Personally, I think the sex scene was really well done. It's the end that has me in knots. Talk about a foreshadowing cliffhanger! Really want to see what happens next!

I think you did a fine job of caputuring Spike and Buffy getting lost in the moment. I'm really worried about the ramifications of their actions though. I can't wait to find out where things go from here. Wonderful chapter!

Interesting chapter. Usually with Spuffy stories, their first time is wonderful, blissful, just everything. And here it was not. This was realistic. And you don't have to be explicit, to have it be a good sex chapter. This all said, I'm extremely worried what's coming. I do like a little angst, but not too long, ok. ;)

Why do I get the feeling that you're working your way up to something awful? Devatating even? I actually think how you handled their first time was beautiful. And strangely accurate. Well done.

Don't be afraid to fade to black where sex scene is concerned. It's just as good. :) Love this chapter... and looking forward to more.

Ummm...not such a fan of this chapter...although I've loved the story up till now...it seems akward and melodramatic and not at all the way so many years of friendship should have culminated...please go back and change it, fix it, make it gentler...better, sweeter...the sweet moments are the ones that bring us back for more

I don't think that you chickened out at all. I'm glad that you did it this way, or at least without being graphic. But I don't think that it felt right this way either, simply because even though they love each other, their relationship wasn't ready for that step. I'm from Texas, which is fairly conservative, but I don't have a problem with the age thing. The thing that bothers me is that Buffy still did it even though she has had several moments wondering if she was strong enough for their relationship to last. If you love someone, you should want to be with that person and fight for what you have with them. It shouldn't matter that they aren't your age or race or if they are the same gender. If you find it, keep it, because it is rare. I hope that they will be able to figure things out soon because I do think that both Buffy and Spike, and your Buffy and your Spike just work.

Don't be nervous. You did well. The "darkness" is uber forboding and I'm a little nervous about the after affects, too, now. I'd say it was a well written chapter. The one critique, if I can be so bold, is that you should trust yourself more. I can sense an aprehension in the writing in this chapter, but it's only slight. I still think the chapter is good, though!

I totatlly forgive the lack of graphics because you did this so well, and thru in ambivilence and angst where others usually have our heroes feeling perfect and just right. I love that you made her doubt and fear. Perfect. Absolutely perfect. :-)

Boy, do I get the chickening out part! Sex scenes scare me for some reason.
Anyway, I hope to God that these two don't pay too dear a price...
