One would think Buffy would have gotten the idea through her noggin but then it's Buffy.  What a walking on egg shells conversation...
It is Buffy, after all... :)

Poor Buffy, still dealing with the tragic effects of her dealings with Angelus. Yay! Spike for "rescuing" her, and not eating the guys, because she "wouldn't like it."
He's a sweetie. *sigh* I want one just like him...

That's our boy, had to come to the rescue. If he does leave, it will hurt them both, their relationship is as solid as cement. Just wondering where you're going with this. I'll find out eventually. Wonderful chapter, thanks.
Thank you.

This chapter had so much sweet and tender to it that it brought tears to my eyes. I love how Spike comforted her and helped her understand her reaction to the boys touching her. I also like how she admitted that she would like him to stay and the talk about why he couldn’t.
So glad you are still enjoying it.

So so beautiful. I adore this- and the cuteness gets cuter with every chapter. So glad to see so many more updates for me to read!

That's not a nice thing to say about yourself! I have a sequel to each of my stories, in my head. The bunnies are very prolific.
Yeah, well your head is much younger than mine, so things probably don't get misplaced in there as often. ROFL

again, very sweet, brought me to tears...you are doing a lovely job with this story, thanx for writing it :)
oh dear - thanks, I think! But if you're in tears now, you might want to stop reading....:)

so glad Spike didn't blow it!! Loving this more and more. Thank you for the quick updates!
Aww - would Spike do that? Well, he might - we'll see.

Lovely. They are both dancing on the brink.

The reactions of Buffy were spot on. Having been raped the tendency IS to freeze (one of the reasons a former victim is MORE likely to be raped again rather than less). You captured it perfectly!!!!! You also touched nicely on her confusion over the reaction and bit of shame at her inability to properly respond.

I love this story.

Thank you - I hope you continue to like it as things progress

He's so noble!! Sigh.
That's our Spike - Wiliam is never too far away...

That'd be so sweet if I didn't know the ending. Are you working on the next part yet?
Um - only in my head (and we all know what a useless place that is. lol)
