I really enjoyed it. Both parts. So much that I fell behind with my work :)
Hope you continue it some day - quite a few loose ends...
LOL Yes, there are a lot of things to wonder about, now that Maggie's gone. Someday, maybe.

Great! I hope you write a sequel. I've noticed that you rarely do anything after their relationship becomes official. Y is that?
Because mostly what interests me is how and why they would get together and stay there, I guess. I'm all about the twisting this or changing that so that they have a chance to at least decide to try to make it work. After that, it's just curtain-fic. LOL  If/when they are together earlier, then something usually gets in the way that causes problems for a while.

All the sequels to, or fics set in the world, of Things That Go Bump in the Night have them in the relationship they set up in in TTGB. The immediate sequel (A Bumpy Christmas) is a longish, plotty fic. Most of the rest are short things written for Schmoop Bingo and set in that verse.

The shorter sequels to I Know You II are all set after they are together.

Always Wait For You takes place after they've been married (and separated for a while)
Once a Vamp Groupie... (sequel to Lovers and Lethe) takes place after they've been together a while.
Just a Little Spell put them together pretty early on, so they are pretty much a couple in that one.
In To Save a Lady, they are living as husband and wife and are together by the time they get back to Sunnydale.
If That's What it Takes has them married/apart/and back together by end, and in Memories are Made of This they are together until the spell breaks, then apart and then back together.

If you're looking for fics where they are a long-time couple, with a family or whatever, then only the ones based in the world of TTGB will probably suit you.  Even when they are already together in most of my fics, I throw a problem in the way so they have to work their way back together.  That's just what interests me more than the happy-ever-after part. :)

OMG you just write that so well.  sigh.  I so wish a man could live up to what you describe. 
Hee. Don't we all?

both of the stories were beautifully written... i'm sorry i didn't leave the review for every chapter but i wanted to read it fast cause i was in a hurry knowing what happens next !
and i'd love to have my own bodyguard-Spike...  ;)
I'm glad you liked them. Wouldn't we all like to have a bodyguard like that?

I really enjoyed reading these two stories - thanks for such a wonderful Spuffy version of the Buffy-Spike encounter with The Iniative -
Thanks for reading. I'm glad you liked them.

Now,that was sweet! Loved it. Any other continuing fics?
Probably.  Several of my fics have sequels.  No more on this story-line, though.

Loved Bodyguard, and loved this even more. Spike here was just so...yummy, I guess is the word, what with being all protector-guy and controlled. It was good to see him and Xander working together, also. I'm a sucker for those two getting along.

I also really appreciated the little details you added, such as Xander checking inside his car before getting in, a habit no Sunnydale resident should be without.
Thank you. I'm so glad you liked these two little fics. They were fun to write. :)

I read this one and it's forerunner (The Bodyguard)yesterday and forgot to review, sorry. Both are bloody brilliant as all your fics are. I Love pompous Angel showing how selfish he is, and Xander showing how stupid he is... and the Spuffy of course is vital to my existence...
Hee! You are such a great reviewer. Thank you.

I loved this fic. Actually I loved the one before also. Shame on me for not reviewing. But if you think about it, its sort of a complement because I didn't want to stop reading your stories. ; )
Hee! I'm glad you enjoyed them. That's the important thing.

{claps} Another fine piece of work, Patti. Loved it from start to finish. I loved The Bodyguard as well (the predecessor to this)
Thank you, sweetie. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I'm surprised I missed this last chapter and didn't review before this. Sorry. Anyway, I loved the ending and would be very happy to see a sequel. I can think of lots messy Angelus angst along with sighing and grumbling by Giles. Thank you for sharing.
thanks - glad you found the last chapter - would hate to think you thought I'd abandoned it. lol Definitely room for a sequel...

02/02/2006 06:30 am
Lovely story, Patti--and a fine sequel to the excellent fic from good_evil! Can't wait to read your next tale....
Thank you, pet. Working on the next even as we speak (type). LOL

This was very heaven - and lived up to all my expectations. I'm so glad she was honest with him for once!! Lovely stuff and thanks for all your hard work. It's appreciated.
thank you for taking the time to comment. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

02/01/2006 12:30 pm
Excellant conclusion. Happy smile - i am so glad that the intitative is shut down - and the not unless I want it conerning the claiming was fB1
Hee! Glad you caught that "not until I want it" Thanks for reading and reviewing.

Well very nice little story with a porno ending :)

Is there going to be a sequel to this too? I would love to see Angel go batty :D
Thank you. An epilogue in which Giles and Angel get clued in might be fun, mightn't it?

02/01/2006 07:55 am
Awesome job with this fic! I loved buffy's attitude in this one. I like it when she doesn't try to bitch her way out of a relationship with Spike. Don't worry about answering this becaue god knows I am seriously suck at answering reviews. And lj comments. I'm a terrible person.
If I don't answer it, it just hangs around here(unanswered reviews) and bothers me. LOL I'm going to get them all sooner or later....

*glares at very busy Stacy* Not a terrible person, just other priorities.

02/01/2006 06:17 am
Love the ending. Loved the whole fic.
thank you - glad you didn't think the ending was too sugary.

02/01/2006 04:13 am
Aw, no way, that can't be the end! Pretty please, do a sequel? :P

This was such a great story! :D
thank you

Is it wrong to beg for a sequal??? With more of the same?? Damn you are awesome:P
:-D You can beg - don't when it'll happen though.
