Well that was absolute perfection!  Love that Spike gave Buffy the first great birthday in years.  The mention of that night with Angel really added a new perspective to the significance of Buffy's choice.  The way she ran away from a speechless Angel was hilarious!  So sad that this is the end though!  I was really enjoying this fic and now I'll have to seek out new fluff.  Hope you have another great fic in the works!
Thank you for all the lovely praise! I'm so glad you enjoyed this story. I am working on something but I'm wrestling it into submission at the moment! :-) Thanks again for the constant support and encouragement.

Buffy got it right at last!  Lovely ending.  Didn't hurt that Angel got an eyeful either.
Yes, she did. Just needed a bit of prompting. And making Angel speechless- always fun! Thanks for reading.

And Angel had to watch the entire time! Yes! The interaction with Spike was realistic and in character for both of them and I'm happy that Spike did get his concerns out in the open for Buffy to reassure him. I can't wait to read the next chapter, not only for how Buffy handles Angel but for Spike and Buffy being together and I'm betting showing off Spike's romantic side. Great work!

*jumps up and down like a kid on a sugar high*  Is there going to be Angel brooding?  Please tell me there will be pouting and whining!   I absolutely love how that turned out!  Running away from Angel and then declaring her love for Spike while he looked on was a perfect way to put Spike's insecurities to rest.  She chose him over Angel when Angel was actually present which is very reassuring and pretty gloat worthy.  Wish I could see the Spike gloating, but Buffy sent him away!
Spike will get some gloating in, fear not. Yep, figured it was a good idea. I enjoyed picturing the look on Angel's face as they kissed. :-) Thanks for reading.

Oh, this is baaaad!  Stupid Angel!  Nice twist there though, much worse than Riley showing up.  And it gives Buffy the perfect opportunity to make it up to Spike and prove that she loves him not Angel.  I'm sure there is going to be a bit of interim angst but it's a better scenario in the long run!
Exactly. There is a reason for Angel turning up instead of Riley. Much better for forcing feelings out.

Oh, it's heartbreaking. I just knew Angel would have to ruin everything for her. And if it was so urgent they wouldn't be able to wait a night to get weapons and stuff! Poor Spike, if Angel is rubbing it in I fully expect one or both of them to beat Angel up. And if Buffy tells Spike she loves him in front of Angel... Bonus!
Good chapter.
Methinks you're going to like the next chapter...

Damn Angel, poor Spike.  You kinda switched the angst around on us. I hope you'll update soon.

Buffy just get dumber and dumber - it would have taken what - a couple of minutes to tell Spike?  He's never going to come first and it's only fair she tells him.
She's definitely going to regret this. But it may have a different effect than you think... Thanks for reading!

Their playful bickering is adorable and so very new love-ish!  Love to see Buffy worrying about her vamp and trying to at least show her feelings if she can't speak them.  Glad you got in a Scooby scene especially with Dawn and Spike!

I feel like I'm riding on a lazy river of cuteness!  This is always the last fic I read when I check BSV for updates because it leaves me in a peaceful yet somewhat giddy state of mind.  I loved the full disclosure with Willow!  It was great insight into the feelings of Buffy.  Think Buffy is so adorable when she's embarrassed about something silly in front of Spike.
Hehe. Very glad to hear that. A nice bit of fluff always goes down nicely (not that angst doesn't have its merits obviously.)

Lovely chapter. Hearing Buffy and imagining what the conversation between Xander and Giles must have looked like was great! At the end Spike and Buffy were wonderful together. I'm glad this fic chose to go through a more normal pace for a relationship instead of the life-or-death recklessness that allowed Buffy to tell herself it was 'just sex' so often. I like how they can be friends and be comfortable around each other first and you're showing it wonderfully without making it friendly like Xander and ruining the sexual tension. Great job.

This is such a precious story and the fact that everyone is trying to accept Spike for Buffy's sake is so endearing to me.  I love Giles and yeah, he would worry even if the guy were human because he truly loves like a father.  I get so excited that you update daily it makes up for the authors who don't, sorta.  lol

Thank you for keeping this fic so light!  It's good to read fluff once in a while since it seems most of the WIPs I've been keeping up with lately seem to be so angsty.  Love that Buffy went to Spike when she was upset and that he forced her to talk about her feelings.  I was wondering, much like Spike, where her head was at with their relationship.  That resolution with Giles was great too!  Much more like a father and daughter than a watcher and slayer!
Glad to hear you like. :-) Thought it was important to show Buffy not just thinking of this as fun. And any excuse to have a naked Spike, of course!! Thanks for reading and reviewing!

How dare Xander! And I guess I shouldn't be surprised at Giles' reaction but I totally understand Buffy's anger. Wonderful writing of the three of them watching the movie together and I loved the Spike-cuddles. It's so annoyingly in character that the Giles and Xander think they can call an intervention. I can't wait to see how you show Xander in the next few scenes. Good work, write more soon! Please?

They really need to give up this charade of trying to behave themselves and just have sex already.  In the presence of Spike I wouldn't even be trying to behave myself!  Have no idea how Buffy manages it.  Love the fluff here, it makes up for the angst in Connection!
Now you see why I was writing both simultaneously- needed a break from the angst (which is unfortunately going to get worse before it gets better) Well, this relationship is not like the one on the show and Buffy's much more wary about jumping into bed with him....For now.... Thanks for reading!

I love the playfulness that still has the words paralleling Season Six in this chapter. I wonder how long Buffy can treat this like a casual thing or how long Spike can stop from doing something to nudge her along; I hate that he knows she doesn't like to hear that he loves her and they treat it so normally. Still, a good build-up and I look forward to see how the rest of the story goes and what obstacles might appear.
Yep, yep. Things will get more serious but fun is good. There will come a time when Buffy wants to hear that he loves her, promise (if she's not secretly liking it already). Thanks for reading and reviewing.

They're just so darn cute like this!  And it's about time Buffy realized there is no winning in her fight against Spike.  She doesn't know yet that the winning comes after she stops fighting him!  Glad there will be less angst because I like seeing them happy!
This is an angst-free zone :-) There will only be much Spuffyness. It's good for the soul, I find. Thanks for reading.

It's wonderful to see the sweetness between Spike and Buffy without getting too sappy and staying in character for them both. I would have expected more intensity on Spike's part considering his feelings while Buffy just thought kissing was 'fun', but I'm guessing Buffy is going to start falling without even realizing it soon. Of course with life-threatening situations always around the corner, Spike will get a chance to show off everything we love about him, including the utter devotion Buffy wants to shrug off.
Great chapter and keep writing!
Of course she is! Spike's a lovely boyfriend and she's going to have to admit it soon. Much more sweetness to come, I promise. Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Way to go Buffy!  Kiss the hot vampire and then vomit in his crypt!  Think Buffy's enjoyment of life has taken an interesting, non-Buffylike turn.  Loved giddy, tipsy Buffy!
It may have helped that I'd just been watching 'Gone' when I wrote giddy Buffy...

And so Buffy returns to the land of denial.  How she thinks she can resist Spike, slayer or not, I will never understand.  I'm surprised she didn't melt into a Buffy puddle with the combination of dream images, Spike hands, and desire-filled gazes! 
She's really quite skilled at ignoring her body methinks. But fear not, she will not be able to resist much longer if I have anything to do with it! :-) Thanks for reading!

Gotta love a good mental image of naked Spike!  Love how happy it made Buffy that Spike came through with the money and that she's grateful.  It's great that things are looking up for her!

If I had been in the crypt, you couldn't have pulled me out for anything. I am glad to see the friendship building in this story and oh, why couldn't they do this on the show?

Great chapter!
Quite! But then we're sensible and accept that Spike is great and yummy... Buffy's still coming round to that idea! :-)

Nice to see Buffy appreciating Spike's finer points.
Namely his hot bod :-) Can't be helped. Hehe. I find a little half-naked Spike just gets me through the day...Hehe.

Well how cute was that?!? Spike playing kitten poker to win money for Buffy is so believable. Loved the bad moodiness in the beginning and how it bothered Buffy. Enjoying watching this unfold!

I am glad Spike initially turned her down. Of course, he went after her so that didn't last long, lol. I enjoyed the poker game and the dialogue between our fave couple. On to the next one...

I just found this story and loved the chapters so far. I noticed some of the dialogue between Buffy and Spike came from one of the episodes in season six when buffy was helping with Halloween sales and went to the basement and ran into Spike. I really wish she had gone with Spike...I loved their developing friendship. I actually wish they hadn't kissed in a way...a longer friendship might have made things much better...

Guess that is why we have fanfic...he he
I can't wait to see what else happens in this story and wait with baited breath for the next chapter!
Yep, there were some great lines in season 6 that I just had to steal! :-)

Glad you're enjoying!

Buffy and Spike bonding at the Bronze? That's pleasantly surprising! Love that last line!
Bonding is good...brings them closer together... Hehe.

Nice little fic you got going here. I'm suprised there aren't more reviews. Anyway, definitely interested to see the next chapter, so until then, farewell talented author.
Thank ye muchly. Glad you like. More will be on its way soon.

All tear inducing chapters should have mandatory "Caution: May need tissue!" warning labels! There were only a few but that's all it takes for me to determine this was a good chapter! Waiting to see what's next!
Sorry! :-) Next time I'll warn you... No more tear-inducing chapters as yet, so you're safe. Glad you enoyed though.

Awww I'm gonna miss Giles.
Me too :-) He should never leave...but Buffy's gonna have to learn to stand alone (or maybe with a certain handsome vampire hehe).

I'm not quite sure what to think yet, but it has potential. I do like the easiness between Buffy and Spike with that hint of underlying tension.

Poor Spike, he tries so hard to be bad. It's nice to see them bickering without turning cruel or obnoxious though and I like how you showed Spike's insight into why Giles would be going.
There will be much bickering...but definitely not of the horrible kind. Thanks for reading!
