*stands with AmyB* i second that!!!!!!

You know Balula, I might actually be willing to lisen to your point of view if you could actually write proper English.; as it stands I'm not even going to comment. This story is as long as its going to be, as many words as it needs to be and as many chapters as it takes to get the story told the way I want it told. If you have a problem with that, perhaps you shouldn't be reading it. If that's your only criticism, that the story is too long, then I'd say I'm doing exactly what I set out to do. To tell a story at my own pace. I'm really sorry if that doesn't fit with your schedule and/or life. Perhaps a different story and/or author would better suit your requirements. Niamh

this fiction it way too long.

jane I dont mind how you sub divide this story as long as you keep it coming. I find it utterly satsifying. That ending was cruel. The phrase 'miles to go before we sleep' keeps ringng though my head. Update soon please.

Tam~Spikeslovebite ahhhh another glorious update...so loving the Angel pain LOL

Oh yeah! Angel misconception smackdown time has commenced!!! Oh please oh please make it hurt! GREAT chap!!!

The previous entry was mine, Rana I'm just a different one and I wanted to say that I loved the way that buffy reacted to spikes news and I just REALLY liked the dinner scene made them seem like a family.

I think that with every chapter this story just keeps getting better and better and I think you should continue this the way you have been.

Omg! Spike tying Dawn's hair up in knots had me roaring out loud with laughter! *snorts* Spike's sense of honeriness is just precious. I loved the family scene between Spike, Buffy, and Dawn while they were eating dinner. It's so nice to see both girls, and Spike, happy again. Earlier, Spike's reaction to Buffy's smile, regarding Angel's baby theories, was priceless. He seemed genuinely gobsmacked. I loved, loved, loved Spike's chocolate-rich voice saying Buffy's name in reverence after seeing her reaction to the prophecy news. *sigh* Such a beautiful moment. Giles' opinion of Anya seems quite high these days. Hmmmmm.... I wonder if cupid could be making a stop in that direction someday. She is quite an intelligent, observant person, and Xander never has appreciated her. Not thrilled that Angel showed up at the Magic Box so soon, but it was inevitable. I just hope Giles (Ripper) is able to diffuse the situation some. Great cliffhanger Nia. Best ever! "Kissing Spike." *snicker* All the chapters should end that way!

Okay, Angel should just mind his own business and Xander should just get a life. I hope Buffy AND Spike tell Angel off in the next chapter!!! Oh and PLEASE continue this story!!!! Don't stop writing it! I think it's really good and it's how things should have gone on the show. (Not to say that the show wasn't good too but I enjoyed this one better) Great job

YES YES YES.....go buffy. i loved how she didn't move from spike or get up but held him close. i love the family that is growing between buffy spike and dawn. glad tara could get some rest...she needs it great chapter and i soooo can't wait for angel to get told off...more please and soon...:)

And again - Angel isn't able to do what he's told and is heading to Sunnydale.. And Xander ist the same old self "blame Spike". I wonder if that'll ever change.But I think Buffy would love to get pregnant with Spike's Child :-D Looking fordward to the conclusion in the next chapter.

Love the anti-climax of Buffys reaction to Darla being pregnant. I like that shes got so much going on in her own life she can just let it slide. And theyre both not freaked out by possible fertility. Sweet. I like your obtuse Xander too, very in character.
