1. Chp 1 The Song Begins by Lilachigh [Reviews - 14] 
(2455 words)
With This Ring ended sadly because they had to return to Sunnydale otherwise Buffy would never have defeated Glory. But hey, some people are destined to be together....
2. Chp 2 Welcome Back by Lilachigh [Reviews - 7] (1956 words)
I love the way Buffy can rationalize her feelings or Spike. She‘s so good and denying her emotions and thinking up valid reasons not to be in love.

I am so sorry for the long delay in posting this chapter. I will quite understand if you have given up on it.

Do contact me if you want a link to it.
