You know what it means... whatever can go wrong, will go wrong. ‘Murphy’s Law’ comes into play from the moment our two favorite blonds meet despite any initial attraction to one another.

Will it ever get resolved, or will they kill each other first? .... “Tell me somethin’, pet. Wha’s the real reason for your knickers bein’ in a twist aside from the possibility you put your plug in sideways?” …. “The fact you’re still breathing is number one on a very long list of reasons and oh-my-God... crude much?” Romance, comedy and mild angst.

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Oh lord, I just made a Sotia-like squee. **shakes head** Oh well, it was a grrreat chapter and does deserve a good squeal of excitement because Buffy is finally removing her head from her arse. Cannot wait for the next update, the ball, right? Should be interesting, plus...Spike in a tux. Me-yow.

Hope you're having a great weekend.

Author's Response: HAHAHAHAHAHHA - that was so Sotia, but GOd luv her she's SUCH a doll and a great friend, I adore her personality. Hee hee, Buffy is getting there, she really is. It's taking a lot of courage from her especially after 9 years of no men. Yup - the next update is the ball, *winks*, and what a ball it will be, full of lots of surprises and laughs. As for Spike in a tux... gotta a surprise for you on that as wel that I think you'll REALLY squee over, *win-wink*. Thank you so much for the awesome review sweets - huggles and snuggles.

YAY! We're finally getting somewhere!! Woo! Spuffy luvin smut coming soon and I can't say that we've all been waiting patiently. I mean, seriously woman, have you been trying to drive us mad? We are definitely not use to you dragging out the hotness! **shakes head** Yep, you were driving us mad with the absence of moaning, groaning and humping.

Great chapter! After reading the A/N I was really worried that things were going to be worse than they were. As for Buffy, I don't hate her per say, but I would like to flog her about the face and chest for being an idiot! LOL

Looking forward to the next installment!

Author's Response: Moi? Drive people mad with waiting? Bah....... just needed to ramp the tension, take ya thru some angst so when the bump and grind begins, its truly satisfying, hee hee. Yeah, Buffy deserved to be bitch slapped a bit, but at least she got her act together in the end. So glad you liked the update hon and thanks fr the fab review - kisses.

Hey sweetie! I am so sorry to hear about the recent troubling events plaguing your life at the moment. Take all the time you need to recover and adjust, which I can only imagine will take a while. You and your children are the main priority right now, everything else can wait. We will all be here ready and waiting for anything you write!

Loved the update! So was not expecting that added tidbit at the end. Color me shocked! Though, it does explain her serious case of reluctance.

**Huggles and Smooches**

Author's Response: THank you hon, for being ery understadning - these things do take time and there's so much I have to do to prepare myself to protect my childrens interest - god, what a nightmare. So glad you liked the latest chappy and that you happy you liked the 'first time' tidbit as the cliffy. Thanks for the awesome and hearrtfelt review darling - huggles you tight.

Oh, honey! You have so got to write more on this...like...Now! Really interested.

I, for one, would be up for a more "proper" sequel if you are. Feel free to entertain me as much as possible. Gets a bit boring here at work sometimes.

Speaking of work, how goes it with the trainee? Is he still grinning from ear to ear and being all annoying?

~Serenity

Author's Response: Hee! Glad you liked it! I have all three parts of this done, and will be posting next Thursday and the one after that. I'm seriously considering the sequel, as I have some ideas, let's hope that will work out!

The trainee still has that stupid smile (he's a great kid actually, but annoyingly cheerful!!!) but I told him part of his training is to do all the paperwork... alone! So yay me! LOL

Date: 01/31/2008 Title: Chapter 1: One-shot

Ok, I just read your other review and just had to get this out.

Why? Why, I ask...do people feel the need to read a story summary that specifically states threesome, then turn around and leave a mean review about it? It just never ceases to amaze me that some people are just that rude. "It squicks me out"...hello, then don't read it. Gah!

Enough of my ranting. Write all the nasty, naughty, shad two Spikes until the world stops spining smut that you want to. I will be waiting for it!

:)~Serenity

Author's Response: To her defense, I didn't have the 'threesome' part spelled out in the summary until I got that review, I thought the title and summary hinted on that.
It was on the author's note, and I guess she left the review after she read that, without reading the chapter.
Plus, she loves my other story, so yay!!! (I'm a little Polyanna -if that's how it's spelled:P-)

*hugs*

Author's Response: And I'm a silly cow, cuz I didn't thank you for sticking up for me *hangs head in shame* Thank you hon!!

Ok, so not only did I forget to review after reading this chapter, but I reread it and lost the great review I thoughtfully typed out. Boo!

So, first off....bloody brilliant chapter! You may not be skilled in the angst, but you certainly have the naughty smuttiness down pat! I feel the need for a smoke and I quit that nearly six years ago! Very well done indeed!

Secondly, I seriously think you should just go ahead and post now. Yep, the third chapter needs to be put out for everyone to see how talented you are. Of course, this has nothing to do with the fact that I really want to read about Spike-Spike showery-goodness, really it doesn't! LOL!

Great chapter, really hot! Can't wait for the next one!

~Serenity

Author's Response: OK, screw co-workers, I'm doing the happy dance from the waist down, and giggling!!!

I'm soooo happy you liked it! I have never written anything like that before and I was worried!

sorry you had to re-write the review, but thank you soooo much for taking the time to do so!

And I can't post now... I am trying to teach myself some self-restraint LMAO

I really hope you like the next part too,

Two things....one: the shower scene was uber hot. I know most people think that two guys together is just icky, but I liked it; especially since it was two Spikes. Guh!

Two: I'm just going to go ahead and say SEQUEL! No if, ands or buts about it, missy! I would really love to find out about everyone else's reaction to the two men, as well as their relationship with Buffy. Xander is so going to shit a golden brick. Funny!

Loved this story! You made it seriously smoking hot and sappy sweet all rolled into one. Great job!

~Serenity

Author's Response: :D Thank you so very much honey!
You and a couple of other people have made me smile on a day that I hate more than you can imagine! LOL

The sequel WILL come to you, but it will take some time and I hope it will be worth the wait!

Hope you've spanked your muse enough to get him back in order and that I'll see an update of yours ASAP

Damn that Hank! Oooh,I hope something horrible happens to him and soon. Maybe a nasty fall down a very treacherous cliff or something? Pretty please? As for Spike...or very much William at this moment, I adored seeing his softer side and I sincerely hope that Buffy takes it into consideration and quits being so darn pigheaded all the time.

Great chapter, as usual...plus, brilliantly written. Looking forward to the next chapter and am seriously wondering when dear old Angelus is going to be making an appearance to try and stake his claim.

Kudos!!!!

Author's Response: *lmao* Hee, that'd be too easy for Hank, although that's a very good idea to get rid of Hank. ;) I'm glad you enjoyed reading the tender side of Spike and Angel would be making an appearance in about 3 or 4 chapters perhaps. Thank you so much for reviewing, sweetie! I'm so happy you liked the chapter!

OMG! And people say that I leave evil cliffhangers...not so much compared to this one! You really really really need to update soon, because I am afraid that I might just spontaneously combust from anticipation!! Is Buffy not Hanks real daughter? Is she like royalty hidden away with the Summers family due to some type of family problem? AGH! Damn you WOMAN!

Ok, calming down now. Loved the Spike-Hank confrontation! I had figured he would do something to the asshole, but I didn't know what exactly. I'm hoping he leaves and never comes back, but we all know he won't. I mean, where's the fun in that, right? And, I am an angst whore, so bring it on!

Great chapter! Looking forward to more!

Author's Response: *lol* I promise you I hadn't thought of it as a cliffhanger, not until everyone said it was. ;) And your wish will come true tomorrow. Muse was on speed or something. I'm very surprised I finished the next chapter so soon.

Ooh! And, did I sense that maybe Rupert Giles isn't as dead as Joyce's dad made him seem?

Clever girl. Bring on more!

Good for Buffy! I know most people probably want her to just fall back into his arms without a second thought, but that'd just be B-O-R-I-N-G! I mean seriously, he broke her heart and just expects to march right back into her arms without a fight or at the very least a whole heck of a lot of pleading? Bring on the angsty-ness and make him grovel! Great chappie!
