well i can just c the shit hitting the fan when Giles blows the lid wide open.. i hope you update again soon... i can't wait for the next update:) i love this story to pieces hehe

Author's Response: Aw, thank you! I'm flattered you have such a high opinion of it.

Knew Spikes job was gonna be questionable but he thinks hes doing what is needed so you cant blame the guy
Dawn is always his voice of reason in getting to him but hes gonna do what he has to do to help his love
Giles is just being Giles I'm waiting now for the blow up to come

All right I am sneaking this in and reading it at work and I must tell you its exceptionally good. You keep your characters so I'm continuously guessing their next move and I love it! Everyone is so on the spot with how Joss would go it is a great credit to you in your writing skills as an author.

Ballsy, love struck vampire. And I knew Giles would figure something out. No other way that could have gone. Hope he doesn't lose her. Looking forward to more.

I disagree with Dawn on this "Everything is not good" right now it is close but it's not perfect for the simple reason Spike has no idea where he stands with Buffy and where they are at. Are they a couple? are they together together? are they living together? will she wear his ring? whats his role now in her life now that they aren't tryig to kill one another and everything that has happened on the past has come out. Dawn in a teenage way kinda does not see all that is going on she just sees they kind of have a family thing together going on and that is what she craves again and does not want him to blow it. She does not see how scared Spike is and his need to be the man in their life.
I'm hopeful or optimistic or whatever that it will all work itself out. Cant wait till you add more

Buffy knows he is evil and without a soul and though his job is messed up and wrong I think she can see his heart was in the right place even if it's wrong I mean hes a vampire they don't exactly hire his trpy down at KFC or at Subwat for 5,000 a week.
Dawn was right on in saying all the little sister things even if it rang in his head over and over. He is still gonna do what he has to do to protect his girls and right or wrong be damned

I love happy Buffy. Darn Giles, but it's not going to be easy deceiving him.

I was behind on a few chapters but whoa catching up was mid blowing with all that is going on.

PLEASE MORE I am dying to see when this all comes out

No wonder he is exhausted and losing weight hes carrying such a burden of trying to be all things to Buffy. I think Giles is gonna expose Spike but it won't have the effect on Buffy he thinks it will have.
Yes - What Spike has been doing for money on many levels is wrong but his intentions are pure in wanting to do what is right in protecting and helping the woman ; women he loves. So I don't think Buffy will be able to be very black and white in her thinking on this one. Gile and the gang have just been waiting to find a way to be rid of Spike in their lives and really are just kinda jump at the chance for a way to out him.
Spike wants to be the man he thinks Buffy needs so he wants to support her and care for her and take care of her sisters and household but at the same time if* Buffy was more forth coming in her feelings and intentions with Spike and their future he would not be so desperate to be grasping at any straws as a means of keeping Buffy. She won't wear his ring, she won't fully invite him into her home or life and he's so insecure about where he stands he is beyond being a desperate ex-man. And Buffy's kinda into the fluffy puppy ga-ga head over feet love Spike has for her and although its nice it's not realistic in a relationship. It would not hurt Buffy to wake up a little and get a job and for them to work together as a team and couple and be real in their relationship. Buffy is a lot stronger then she looks she can shoulder some responsibility too. I can't wait to you add more to this fic.

Aww Dawn is looking at Spike and Buffy together as having a real family, I thought that the sweetest moment ever even if Spike didn't see it. It is sad to see Spike is unsure of going home or calling Buffy's place home and they haven't really talked about that I can see why he is full of fears and scared he will do the wrong thing for Buffy really hasn't reassured him that he is there to stay and a part of her life.

Oh I really hope Dawn is wrong, that it will end well (Spike not driving Buffy away with his try to make money.)
It is worrisome Spike doesn't eat, that he went to Buffy first. Like an addicted, huh?
Unexpected at this point that Spike claimed Buffy yet understandable because of his fear. *pets Buffy* Good of her to take care of Spike now, feeding him.
Oh busted... Giles suspects where the money comes from. :(
Spike is taking an even higher risk now *bites nails*
I really hope this will get well.

Spike makes my heart bleed he is so caring of his girl
