Author's Response: YAY! *bounces* You're here... and reading! Hope you like it!

You KNOW I loved this chapter boo. Buffy admitting her feelings - in denial-fashion of course, I can't have you - mode. Spike had every right to get mad, too. Poor guy to be so tortured like that. And she went and licked his nose blood? Ewwww, giggles - but hey, wonder what it's doing to her, hmmmmmmm, taps fingers on counter. Luv ya babes, off to read ch 2 - smoochies.

Author's Response: *snickers to self* Hun? I don't know if you remember, but you already left a review for chapter 1- NOT THAT I'M COMPLAINING mind you. hehehehe - you're so cute when you babble LMAO! And yes, I'm sorry, but if I was Spike, I would have lost a gasket LONG ago. It had to be the noseblood... not like she's gonna approach him and say "Hey, can I have a sip?" He'd be way wigged. And yep, it'll have an affect on her... dum dum dummmm!

OMG, what a fabulous start to this fic sweety. I’m uber curious as to the hanky – very intriguing. I can’t believe some of what Spike said in the kitchen to her - how heartfelt yet angry it came out. And she ACTUALLY tasted his blood? Not that so much as she had a reaction to it???? What do you have up your sleeve this time my twisted sister? You’ve definitely left me craving more. So please, more soon, like in a couple days or so? Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeease? Don’t make me beg, it isn’t pretty, giggles. Luv ya babes.

Author's Response: Make you beg? As if... IBE doesn't beg... and you're right... it isn't pretty! tee hee! I have nuttin up my sleeve... I know nuttin! Uber curious, huh? Cool, I like that word... Uber. LMAO - sorry I'm a bit sleepy at the mo, can you tell? I'll update as soon as I get back from the butcher's. MWAH! luv ya twisted sista

I had forgotten this was yours.
Ah, well... I'll just have to read it again. :)
Well go on now, don't keep us waiting!

Author's Response: OMG, please tell me you didn't read this when it was up! *blushes profusely and hides head in shame* Hehehhe, I won't keep you waiting long, the next chapter is almost ready to go, and it's like an 'addiction' that I get this done! Thanks dearest for reviewing!

I follow so many WIP's I must have missed this the first time around... great start! Can't wait to read more! :D

Author's Response: Oooo SQUEE! A newbie to this story! hehehehe. Yup it was stuffed in my desk of shame - for it was dreadful after I went back to read it - at least the first few chapters. Then I noticed I kinda got better...and woah..I was like...hmmm, I should really redo this! Cause it sounds so lame at the moment - and now it's only half lame. But thanks for reviewing Mary, it means a lot to me!

I hadn't been able to access TSR until now, which was why I hadn't noticed you posted here, too. Anyway, wonderful chapter, very good setting up, even if I imagine it won't be all smooth sailing for our heroes. But really that's what makes a story as good as this is shaping up to be. Looking forward to more. *huggles*

Author's Response: Yeah, I usually post on TSR first and then EF....it's just habit. This work would not work without your work... you know? LOL, no seriously. Thank you soooo much for all that you have done, I bow to your almighty editing finger (and I'll get Spike to lick it occasionally ;) Love you much carino!
