So ... Spike is outed.. And Buffy is now in Slayer Mode.. First fight.. for our love birds. And I guess Angelus is making his first move.

Enjoying.



Author's Response: Yes, Angelus is beginning to play... Glad you liked it and thanks for reviewing!

I've been remiss in reviewing on this, even though I've read it a few days ago. So let me just say that It was a brilliant chapter that has left me aching for more.

Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'm glad you've been enjoying it!

Mmmm...very nice. Thanks for the update.

I love the post-feeding conversations they have. They are very quiet and deep. Peaceful, too.

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you liked their little moment!

Sigh. I love the way their relationship has developed, slowly, but heading towards the inevitable. Love it, can't wait for more!

Author's Response: Thank you! Yes, we all know what they're heading for... Glad you enjoyed!

WOW, sweety, this chapter was so, hmmmmm, erotic and intimate without being physically so. The words exchanged between them said a lot more than they did and I loved it. They're growing closer, and I couldn't be happier for them. So ignore my last review about snatching away a possible hot moment, because this filled the bill more than sex could have. THough I think once they get there, I'll be needing a cold shower afterwardsm lol. Fab chapter, boo, can't wait for the next. Hugs you tight.

Author's Response: Hehe, review ingored! :) And thank you! Glad you liked it! Yes, they're growing closer, emotionally, and slowly physically. And you're definitely going to need a cold shower later (though some other things will be happening first). Thanks for reviewing!

Truly beautiful chapter.

Author's Response: Thank you so much!

So sweet. More please.

Author's Response: Thank you!

Author's Response: Thank you!

Now I did love that it was very romantic and real. I can't wait to see how this changes their relationship. More please I can't wait.

Author's Response: Thank you! Yes, they are definitely closer to each other now. Thanks for reviewing!

Things are happy now but for how long? I sense doom in the near future. This Spike of yours seems a bit more....I hate to say it but a bit like Angel...not really talky and speaking his mind---kind of holding back. The Spike I'm use to in the show wants Buffy to be upfront about her relationship and know where they stand, in your fic it seems to be the other way around. Buffy is the one questioning and wanting to label what they have.

Author's Response: Happy for not that long, actually. But then happy again. :) That's an interesting point of view about Spike, since most people have commented on him being brutally honest (though, admittedly about his past and killing and such). As for the relationship in the show, I think Spike wanted Buffy to own up to the Scoobies because until she did, she wasn't admitting even to herself what they were doing. The Scoobies' opinions might not have mattered to Spike, but I think the fact that they knew or not did. In this fic, I really don't think Spike cares about Buffy's friends. Yes, their relationship is a secret, but it's not that Buffy is ashamed, it's more that she doesn't think anyone will react well. And likewise, she wouldn't be saying, "Oh, I'm with Spike, by the way," she'd be saying, "I've got this vampire boyfriend," who none of them have any history with, or know anything about, except for what Giles has read. And Spike in S6 might have been an 'evil vampire,' but he was pretty much, well, neutered, where this Spike is very much not, so Buffy has nothing to prove that he won't kill, other than that he says he won't. I think Spike on the show didn't feel like he had all of her because he was her secret. This Spike knows he has all of her, and her friends' opinions don't matter to him. Really, he's known her for longer than anyone in Sunnydale has. As for Buffy wanting to label it, she knows they have a thing, and have a weird thing, that doesn't exactly have a label. He started out as business, but he's almost her boyfriend, and is really so much more than that. Hope that makes sense, and you can see what I had in mind for them. Thanks for reviewing!

Pillow Talk... love it ..

This Spike blows me away.. in a good way of course.

And I am almost patiently waiting for the "sex"... LOL

Author's Response: Thank you so much! And thank you for the Spike compliments! The sex is coming, I swear! :)

Interesting how Oz seems to have been oblivious to Spike's presence in the previous chapter. And the final scene - poetry, shear poetry!

*thanks for the soda, makes the munchies go down easier as I wait again*

Author's Response: Well, Oz never really seemed to remember much of what happened when he was in wolf form in the show, so I figured he wouldn't. Glad you liked the final scene with Spike and Buffy! Thanks for reviewing!

Yayyyyyy for things getting heavier between them! As always I totally loved the chapter!

I know just what you mean about dialog being your thing. I do the same. Write their lines then fill in the description. I see it like painting. Draw the sketch then fill in the color. Only, you know, you do that much more brilliantly than me :-P

*hugs*

Author's Response: Aww, thank you for the compliments! And glad you liked the chapter! Things are definitely getting more intense between B & S... Thanks for reading!

Loved it! Can't wait to read more!

Author's Response: Thank you!
