Umm... I usually don't beg, but I'm certainly not above it ;) If that's what you need, I'm willing to do it for the greater good... pleeeeeeeeease finish this fun and fantastic fic!!! Pllllleeeeeease (as I channel my 4yo)!!!!

Oh henri yes you r totally evil! And Spike whata man whore! Nicely written hun cant wait for the next chapter.

Author's Response: I'm not totally evil. :D Thanks kitty. I hope I get a bit more written soon.

To answer... Yes! Very much so! And only you can answer that... are you? :P

Author's Response: Hehehe thanks blacko...I know the formula for writing soapies thanks to my university studying...so maybe in the future :P

*curious* You can use a mobile phone in a steam room? I wouldn't risk it but I don't have a special one. Well Spike has enough money to buy a new one if something would happen :)
Spike needs to decide what he want or not (last chapter you've answered he doesn't want to stop Liam, now he wants and doesn't do it anyway) and stick to it; maybe that will make him calmer. And not so inconsiderate to have Jonathan calling Buffy. Secret is out now ;-D (If Buffy believes Jonathan but she seems to do it.)

What's with the italic part? Is that real life Buffy? Sounds as if Buffy had been threatened to lose her kids. Not sure if it is good to be involved with Spike if she gets in trouble with her kids. His reputation is a bit tarnished for a divorced mother that got threatened to lose her children (child custody). Or I'm reading too much into the threads?

Author's Response: Sorry it has taken so long for me to respond cordykitten. 1. In the steam room, Spike had a cover over the blackberry. 2. Spike has changed in the months between the chapters. He didn't want to stop Liam because he wasn't falling in love before. Now he feels like he's needing to sustain who he is because being in love isn't in his real persona. 3. Buffy does believe Jonathan, I explaned, albeit briefly, that Spike changes his voice while he has been speaking to Buffy. He is a trained actor and is able to do this well enough to fool an ordinary American. 4. The italics part is like a flashback to Buffy's morning. Lindsey is most definitely threatening to take the kids away. He's a n00b. When is it a good idea to be involved with naughty!Spike? He's totally unpredictable, which is hot and everything but he's the least stable character ever. I love him to bits but he's all over the place. That's the writer's fault on the show but it makes for interesting writing anyway :-). I only ever planned to have five chapters of this fic so the last two might be a while coming because I want to get them right. I hope your reading into things becomes clear as soon as I get around to finishing the next chapter. Henri

I'm always hoping when I start a new story that I'll find something new and different. Sweetie, you've come up with one in spades. I was caught at manwhore. I am really looking forward to any and all updates.

Author's Response: What a good place to get caught at :P Your review totally made my night. I'm really glad you are liking it. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
