“You don’t. You can’t love me.”


His nostrils flared and she watched his face harden. “And yet, all I can think of when I look at you is how much I wish I could stop. No such luck, luv. Guess you’ll have to kill me first.”

And...

“What can I do to make you love me again?”

Those moments... And her breakdown with Faith. Love that the girl supports her letting William live. Love how she can sense him stalking her. So amazing how quickly the connection has developed. Or how fast it never stopped. Just love them, and it. And their pain. How will they go on... What can he do to make her love him. Awesome. Update soon!

Author's Response: Oooh I do love it when you point out the things you liked, that moved you. Faith is a good friend, someone Buffy can talk to without being judged... God knows she needs a friend like that. The connection between them sprung right back up the first time they saw each other, though Buffy keeps fighting it. She's afraid. I'm so happy you like it so far, even the angst. Spike will just have to prove that he can be good, that there's still humanity in him. More soon, and thank you for the great review!!! :)

Congrats for your nom. :)
Oh my, these two hurt so much. There seems to be no way out of this situation. But I'm counting on you to make it better.

Author's Response: You're sweet, thank you. :) I know, I just keep torturing them! As you said, right now it seems very hopeless between them, but an opportunity will present itself soon for Spike to prove he's not a complete monster like Buffy thinks. You know you can trust me. ;) Thank you for the sweet review!!! :)
