Lol now Buffy has to confess who the man is that is with her.
I wonder who will win this: Xander or Faith: Xander not wanting to 'fuck around' when married or Faith who wants to keep him because she has her own plans....
Mmm and now Spike will get his dog to Sunnydale. I wonder if it will come alone or if two very curious parents will accompany it *g*
Looking forward to the next part :)

Author's Response: Xander is weak in many ways (Buffy especially) and Faith knows this. It's Anya we need to worry about because she is a lost soul where her Xander is concerned and there is heartache awaiting her at every turn. Buffy is stronger then she thinks and Spike 'knows' this. I don't know if you are familiar with Akitas. They are Japanese fighting dogs and I hope to go into a long explaination about them in the next chapter. In Japan, or so I have heard, some mothers have their Akitas 'babysit' the kids when they go to work. Akitas are very protective of 'their' human families and this is what endears ours to us so. I think the next chapter might be very educational about Akitas and don't worry, Brutus will accept Buffy because Spike will want him to! Thanks, spuf

I'll bet there have been happier weddings at the morgue! Can Xander be more worthless! At least the Spike and Buffy Families are all in the know of the something romantic going on now and Brutus is coming soon! I'm sure he'll help with the antics (and I anticipate he'll be very protective of Buffy if someone unpleasant comes to visit). more please.

Author's Response: Yes, well, the Harris marriage is just going to get better! (Not!) The funny thing about Akitas is that they are very loyal (strike that and make it possessive) of 'their' families. Spike will have to introduce Buffy to Brutus in a good way or there might be problems. My family has had Akita's since my husband and I have been married. Actually, it's the children of the family that you have to be careful about. Akitas tend to think that the ppl family children are 'theirs' and should not be approached by other children at all. They consider all outsiders a threat to 'their' ppl. I have had to keep neighborhood children out of our back yard and away from our dogs. Sometimes they feel that the other kids are going to harm the family child (my daughters). Our Akita now is quite friendly, but he is still a puppy really. However, if Spike makes Brutus aware that Buffy is alright (though most Akitas are astute about human personalities) then there should be no problem. Thanks, spuf

I hope Xander doesn't end up killing Brutus when he comes. That would be so sad! Update soon please!

Author's Response: Don't worry about Brutus...one thing about Akitas is that they are very intuitive to evil or questionable ppl. My husband used to breed them and we have had at least one Akita dog since we've been married (16 years). Thank you, spuf
