Thanks for all the reviews! I love reading them and seeing how much people are enjoying my story. As a first time author, I am so, so appreciative of all the support I am getting!

I think I've fixed the formatting problem!

This was a hard chapter to write and I think it may be hard for some people to read. This is where the violence warning come in...

This is my Spuffiest chapter so far...Please let me know what you think!

12. Chapter 12 by Samara [Reviews - 15] (2069 words)
This isn't going to be anyone's favorite chapter, but we all knew it would probably happen this way, right?

A big huge thanks to whomever nominated me at Love's Last Glimpse! And major thanks to everyone who has taken the time to review. It means so much to me! Please keep it up!

I am so so sorry that I've been gone for so long! I had computer problems, and then the flu, and it just seemed like the world was trying to keep me away from my computer! But now I have two new chapters for anyone who is still reading!

I know there's no dance floor at Per Se, but I wish there was!

Hope everyone enjoys the chapter and please, please review!

17. Chapter 17 by Samara [Reviews - 14] (2709 words)
Here it is, my second update in a week! I was inspired by all the fabulous reviews, and honestly I have
been wanting to write this chapter since I first thought of this story. I hope you love it; please let me know!

18. Chapter 18 by Samara [Reviews - 14] (3901 words)
I have no excuse, except that real life can be a bitch and this chapter was really complicated to write. I know exactly where I'm going, it's just getting more difficult to get there. But I am really sorry it's taken so long to get this out. I swear I'll do better! I know I probably don't deserve it, but please, please leave me feedback!

19. Chapter 19 by Samara [Reviews - 8] (2298 words)
So so sorry I've been gone for awhile. I now have no internet at my house, so posting has been particularly tough. Plus, those pesky real-life issues...But I promise I haven't abandoned this story!

20. Chapter 20 by Samara [Reviews - 23] (2748 words)
I had a hard time getting this one right...Sometimes you can get so caught up in writing a really emotional chapter that it's hard to tell if you've gone overboard. Thanks so very, very much to Flibble for editing this chapter and for all her encouragement!

We are nearing the end of the story...Only a few more chapters to go!

21. Chapter 21A by Samara [Reviews - 16] (1876 words)
Okay, I know it has once again been a really long time since updates. I moved over the summer and actually lost the power cord to my laptop, which caused a delay, and honestly, I've just had trouble concentrating. Usually I write my chapters in one sitting, but this one has taken three or four. I actually meant to make it longer, but figured I'd better post something before everyone forgot about me. So the next chapter will be 21B and eventually I'll probably merge them. Thanks so much to everyone who is reading!

22. Chapter 21B by Samara [Reviews - 13] (2210 words)
See what reviews do?! I was so blown away by the response to the last chapter that I was inspired to sit down the afternoon and write the second half! Thanks so much to everyone who is still reading!

I'm still having trouble with my margins, so I apologize for that!

23. Chapter 23 by Samara [Reviews - 14] (2073 words)
It's funny how my muse can disappear for months and then return full force...I really, really loved writing this chapter. Please let me know what you think!

24. Chapter 23 by Samara [Reviews - 11] (1854 words)
Finally, finally, finally, a new chapter! The angst has been too much for me lately, but I'm finally feeling my way back. I've been inspired by some other authors who have recently shown up to continue stories I'd about given up on, so thanks to all of them (you know who you are!) for inspiring me again! The end is in sight for this story, and I actually have a new one started that ought to be a bit less angsty. Please leave a review to help keep me going!

Thanks to smlcspike who suggested they not actually head home right away! You're absolutely right and that got me started on a little tangent that'll show up in the next chapter! Hope you like it!

25. Chapter 25 by Samara [Reviews - 4] (3956 words)
I'm really sorry I haven't been updating. We had a death in our family and I just haven't been able to get my head together enough to write until now. Kinda funny, because I think if this had been one of those angsty chapters it would have been easier to write than Spike and Buffy having fun for once. I don't think this is my best effort, but I'm just thrilled that I was finally able to get it out, and I really hope that now I can keep moving on with the story. Please review!

26. Chapter 26 by Samara [Reviews - 6] (3338 words)
Finally, another chapter up and it's a long one! Spike and Buffy have a lot to deal with, and they just really haven't talked plainly about what needs to happen next, so that's what this is about. I still feel like I've kind of lost the rhythm of this story, but I'm determined to finish it no matter what! Please review!

27. Chapter 27 by Samara [Reviews - 11] (1852 words)
I'm still here! I have no excuse really. This story has been languishing for far too long, and I've kind of decided it'll be a good start to getting my head on straight again if I can finish what I started. So here it is, although I'm really not sure if it's good anymore. It's hard to pick back up sometimes. But anyway, it's one more chapter done and it's pretty long, so I hope you enjoy!
