Oh oh this is really bad...Buffy lying to Spike about Angel, and sneaking off to help him is gonna be a betrayal to Spike.:( I know she feels she has to do it and help Angel, and Spike is not helping by being his usual stubborn self about Angel but still...he's gonna look at it as Betrayal with a capital B.
Spike with Billy was sooo cute...one little happy thing at least. :)

I'm really anxious now..Off to the next chappie... biting my nails *eep*

Author's Response: Hi AMI! Oh, you are sooooo right. That is exactly how Spike is gonna feel! It really makes my muse happy when you guys know how Spike's gonna feel ... even though you know it's gonna be bad.

Had to throw in that last little bit of happy with Annie and Billy before the bad starts ... 'cause it's gonna start soon!

Thanks so much for reading and stopping in here! I love your reviews!! {{HUGS}}

This is bad, as long as Buffy doesn't tell Spike, it is bad. It is a betrayal, and it says that Angel is more important than Spike. She could keep Spike from killing Angel, she knows she can. But she's not giving him that a chance. Keep Angel safe, whatever that's fine, but don't lie to Spike. No wonder Spike has insecurities when he keeps being proven that Buffy worries more about Angel. She needs to tell Spike that Angel is back, take the ring off Angel, give it to Spike, and to hell if Angel can't understand the fact that he's a vampire. He's too worried to go outside anyway so he can stay inside and not dust, and Spike can have the ring. And that's the stance I will continue to take during this whole story so I'm not sure how much good any review I give will be when I keep repeating the same thing so for the sake of not beating a dead horse, I might not say anything until Spike gets that ring.

Stupid, stupid Buffy. Just to reinterate, I'm not completely against the idea of helping Angel. She thinks he can be good again, then great, give him that chance. I'm against the idea of her not telling Spike that Angel is back because I think it only hurts Spike and doesn't do Angel any good. Buffy can keep Spike from doing anything. And I'm definitely against any idea of Angel keeping the ring, he can have it back if and when Spike shanshus, otherwise tough luck. He'll just deal. Harsh but I was never on Angel's team.

Author's Response: Hi WWW! I knew you'd be totally unhappy with the story line my muse took ... but I told you he wanted them to go through hell to get the rIng back, and he will put them through it ... but, I'll look forward to a review from you again in a few chapters! Trust me - I thought of you the whole time I was writing this going "WWW's not gonna like this.... totally gonna be unhappy with this..." And you are totally right - Spike will feel betrayed and for once he'll not let her get away with it - well - you'll see.

I do love your reviews, and I always look forward to them - I love your passion for Spike! My muse just has an evil streak and I can't escape it ...Thanks so much for reading and stopping in here!! Don't hate me!!

I really don't like Buffy keeping secrets from Spike no matter her justification. She is lying to him and that is never good. Please don't let the lies go on forever.

Author's Response: Hi Bridget! Buffy's going to come to that conclusion, too - lying to Spike is not good ... the question is, will it be too late when she realizes what a mistake she's made?

Thanks so much for reading and stopping in here! I love hearing from you! -P4S 2010.12.10
