Hi girls, just wanted to say I'm a big fan of both your works. I was a bit suspicious of this story back in the second chapter when Spike broke up with Buffy so abruptly (after three years, if they were such a confident couple, I figure it would have taken a lot more than a couple of glances and winks to shake that foundation). But I have been following the story and I absolutely love how it's turning out. I hope it takes a while for the two of them to get back together; lots of long talks and tears and angst. This story hits really close to home and I'd like to see both of them grow and be stronger before they eventually return to each other.

Ok so I finally read your story! I was going to wait until it was done and then wait until spring break, but my hw is so terribly boring so I couldn't help myself! You guys are doing an amazing job and I'm soooo curious to see how they are going to get back on each other's good sides. I think the intrigue is also that you two wrote in Spike's betrayal as less a mistake in the moment and more of what he felt (or thought he felt). Angsty! Keep up the great work! (and I'll be reading Fireworks soon - depends on when I cave in/procrastinate)

Go, Buffy. I just wish that she had enjoyed her encounter with Angelus. She deserves lovin' and sex, too. Is Buffy ever going to get a chance to be happy without Spike? As much as I like the Spuffy couple. This Spike has absolutely no redeeming qualities so far, besides his looks. And I hate that Buffy seems to define herself based on her relationship with him. Apparently William has always found Buffy wanting, otherwise he wouldn't have even been tempted by Dru, let alone dropping Buffy so quickly. So, I would love to see Buffy finding happiness outside of that relationship and showing that she doesn't need William at all.

So she had sex with Angelus well at least he didn't rape her which I thought was going to happen. I can't believe Spike waited for her. What the hell is his problem? I'm so glad he's regretting breaking up with Buffy...dumbass. Thanks for updating again. Loved the chapter and looking forward to the next...Thanks

Yeah! take that Spike. i love me some spike in emotional pain. and Her comeback to him was beautiful.

Gosh! What a nerve Spike have!?! He left her for a ho and change himself, then have the nerve to come around and say those things to Buffy!!! Come on, you LEFT her!! Sorry...the story is so good it gets me all revv up...thank u for the fast update :) More please...

I know buffy is gonna get hurt by angel sometime soon but spike deserves everything that she said to him. hopefully, he comes to his senses soon. Dru is so not the girl for him.

I really like this story a lot cuz it's so different from others I've read - vert well written too. And I'm glad Buffy is standing up for herself and being independent. Spike has some major redeeming to do, LOL.

Well that was fast! Thanks! And she slept with him? The funny part is that she doesn't remember, no lasting memories, must not have been worth remembering!... lol. *sigh* Poor Buffy, it surely sounds like she still really loves him, must be tearing her a part.
