It's a nice story.A little OOC but I don't mind.
I just have on recommendation for ya, if you change the scene or day or whatever, please emühasize the change. Sometime it's hard to follow the flow of a chapter cause one moment they're in the bed and the next they're training...no paragraph or somethin between. Maybe you should draw ----- or ~~~~ between the scenes.That'd be nice! Keep up your good work! :)

I don't understand <wail> How can you leave us like this?  Wish you could post more right  now - but that would make the story end sooner... <Sob>  :-(

 :o this is my jealous of your writing skills face! hehe! Again everything was perfection. Spike and Buffys new relationship is explained from each side in such detail thats its so easy to really put yourself into their repsective situations and completely understand! So basically i love it! Also awesome cliff hanger!  I am on the edge of my seat!!!

I love the intimacy between Buffy and Spike in this chapter, how wonderful the relationship could be in peaceful times, with teasing and warmth and mutual respect and things they had never had before. Buffy's total willingness to be claimed, but not claim back, letting herself be bound to him unequally was perfect, IMO. It shows her trust and love and selflessness for their relationship, and how she learned to take a chance and hope with him, and that she doesn't need to grasp at control or not losing control of herself anymore.

Of course it all comes crashing down! The cliffhanger is great. We haven't heard from Angel and Giles had been distracted and we got a glimpse of Kennedy's jealousy and hostility-- so who could be the 'they' killing Spike? Giles, Angel, Chiriwan sent to attack him, SITs, witches? Or is no one harming him, but Buffy is being lured into a trap because she'll rush in without thinking when she hears Spike is in danger? I can't wait to find out!

Also, I like how you showed Buffy had grown into the role of taking care of the SITs more, understanding about morale and warmtha nd camarederie and just being teenagers who wanted fun, even when Giles forgot that. Like the honesty and understanding of herself as she does see that, when the possibility it is not a necessary duty, she might like to go off and be a rogue demon hunter rather than Slayer General. And what was up with Giles' reaction to Willow talking about Spike? Did he think this memory-less Spike had somehow set up an international ambush to attack the spread-out slayers if they followed his suggestion? it's ridiculous. They can see teh logic of the idea, and he might have listened if he didn't know it was Spike's. But then, maybe he is worried more about losing control?

Another excellent chapter, and I look forward to more!

AHH, no!  You can't do that!  You can't just say "They're killing Spike!" and just leave it like that! X<  Love it, can't wait for the next chapter!X3

 OMg- How can you leave us there? Evil, I tell you !  Can't wait for tomorrows chapter :-)

This chapter was absolute perfection!!! Every single word was....just....I can't explain how amazing your work is! I'm so glad Buffy explained and is waiting to claim him. I can only hope that Giles shapes up soon and that "killing Spike" just means that he's losing to the SITs!
