At least Buffy's beginning to realise what a pig she's been. I hope the Scoobies tell her how dumb she's been.
they won't *all* be able to keep quiet about it ;)

Very nice! I really like that chapter. I am glad that Buffy is ashamed of the way she treated Spike like her possesion.
she should be....she just needs to see how her behavior looked to someone else to understand it... thanx for review :)

Beautiful update, very touching. I'm glad things are starting to work out, and that Buffy felt ashamed after Spike called her mistress, she should be! I agree with Tara, that slavery is really disusting. I hope you find a way to punish Riley the way he deserves, with a whole lot of pain and humiliation! I'm looking forward to your next update!
don't worry, riley has more punishment coming to him... Buffy needed to see her behavior toward Spike through someone else's eyes to face up to it herself...thanx so much for your kind review :)

I liked Xander getting to see his hero Riley in a new light. the rest of the story was so tender, so sad now if their respective stubbornness doesn't pop up.
yeah...that's usually a problem isn't it? ;)

Awww....this chapter is awesome. Can't wait to read what happens next. I suspect that Riley will try to mess things up.
you suspect right :)

awww *tear* thats so good how you made me feel what they were feeling.. poor spike.. and i hope the scoobies realise her intentions behind buying spike - that she was friendless, unloved and alone and she *needed* him..
thanx so much, so glad the story could touch you...yeah, i'm trying to keep a balance so that Buffy's motives are understood, while still making it clear that her treatment of Spike was wrong... thanx again for review :)

Great chapter.  Loved how Buffy actually used her brain, concerning Spike and his feelings, instead of just saying or doing something foolish.  Can't wait till the next update.
yeah...sometimes the less said the better :) thanx for review :)

Awwww.... this is such an amazingly sweet chapter. It may be hard for Buffy's friends to get past her earlier treatment of Spike... It'll be interesting to see where this goes. Amazing chapter! Thank you so much!
yeah, but maybe that will help her in the long run...thanx so much for your review :)

Buffy's self-reproach is well handeled and her treatment of Spike very touching. Great work.

Awesome chapter! Glad Spike is finally getting some TLC and for once some sympathy from the scoobies. Can't wait to see how Buffy and Spike's relationship progresses from here--and no doubt Riley isn't finished yet, either! Lovin' it!
right on all counts!! :) lol..thanx so much for your kind review :)

Been watching for this all day. Excellent even if Riley isn't complete toast yet. So gald the scoobies are going to be solidly behind Spike this time (Yeah the deserved glare of Tara!). This rocks.

oh but he will be!! i promise! and for once the peer pressure on Buffy will be a good thing :)

That was a really sweet chapter. I was kind of squeamish about some of the parts of this story, but I really like what its evolved into. I'm really looking forward to see how it all ends.
i'm glad that i could win you over with this one ;) thanx
