I love the story line. As a suggestion, don't leave out the emotions. When Spike tells her that her mom has a brain tumor or when she tells him he's the father, it's missing the emotional side. He would be so happy or angry and Buffy would be devastated about her mother. Otherwise it's great!

Author's Response: Thanks. I'm going to take your advice to heed in future chapters. If you see any problems in future chapters, don't be afraid to let me know.

Regarding the last chapter - Five years are a long time to go 'cold turkey' to stop being the slayer.
I have trouble to imagine Buffy to quit like that (and never visiting Joyce or showing her mother - or her sister - her daughter) but I will read on to see how it ends. ~

So Buffy told Spike now. And Spike said nothing about that Buffy ran, hiding the fact he was a father from him? She got 'off the hook' way too easy for what she did (just my opinion). Good thing that Spike believes her that he is the father.

Dawn and Connor, huh?



Regarding the beta: If you have a good Beta (means who isn't only checking for grammar) you'll find a help there with the story, looking out for plot holes etc. too. To quote an entry where it is said better:
What the hell is a beta for, anyways? Some would say proofreader, some would say idea-bouncer, some as a check and balance to ensure proper characterization, and some would say collaboration. I would say that the ideal beta is a combination of all of these.
If you interested to read the whole entry, it's here. Another one is here

Author's Response: Thanks for the advice. Don't worry, there's going to be a slight blow up between Spike and Buffy in a future chapter, but I'm not all that good at angst. Tried it before and it ended up turning to fluff.

I really like your story and where it's going to go! :)

Author's Response: Thanks. I had a vision of where it was going, but changed my mind, so now I'm working on that vision.

I like the idea of this story but i was somewhat cofused with the story line. Where Buffy starts crying in the living room then all of a sudden she's in bed with Spike. I thought his reaction would be a little more harsher being that she kept his child away from him for five years thats a really long time.

Author's Response: Don't worry, there's going to be a blow out between Buffy and Spike soon. Asking Spike to stay with her was more of a comfort thing for Buffy than anything else.
