So glad he told her. Just waiting to see what's going to happen next. I'm still on edge though, have a feeling I'll be there for most of the story. So many things to go wrong. Another great chappie!

I would love for poor Spike's plan to work, but...
Good recollection of what's been done to him.

JS - since you're in a revising kind of mood, how is it that Angel gets to own Spike? Or are you planning on springing that later? Devoted read will try to be patient.
Angel doesn't own Spike, hun, and never has. But he'd like to. At this moment Spike is technically owned by the Watchers Council - seeing as they coughed up the money - and Ethan/Giles has hld of the ownership papers. Feel free to drop me an email at any time if I confuddle you - but you'll only get answers for story already out there. *grins*
Thanks for asking, sweetie.

I hope Buffy rips into Angel good if he does show up at her door. I hope she kicks his butt all over the place. LOL LOVE THIS CHP!
Oh, my! Such violent tendencies! I'm getting the vibes loud and clear, hun! LOL
So glad you liked and hope you like the next one too. *hugs*

No problem about the review mix up. {Smiles} I wasn't sure if I had made you mad, and I just wanted to make sure I hadn't. {huggles} I do love this story, and I look forward to every chapter. I hope that Angel gets the crap kicked out of him, and that Buffy doesn't let Angel anywhere near Spike. I liked this chapter a lot.
Also, if you can't keep a weekly Monday post, don't fret. Sometimes the muse takes a little break and then sometimes it hits you like wildfire. If you force it too much, you will be unhappy with the results. Know that we readers are there for you when you are so inspired again. {Smiles}

Phew! Glad we got the mixup sorted out, Tasha! *hugs*
So glad you liked, hun, and the anti-Angel feeling hasn't gone unnoticed - nor is it unexpected! If only we had a vengeance demon around it could be sorted out very quickly - and no, there won't be one of those handy darlings popping up! Muse is fine - fingers are slow (and I get easily distracted!). But I so appreciate your words. *more hugs* BFN, sweetie. xxx

Poor Spike. Can I cuddle him and make him feel better? Pleeeeease? And then I'll send him out to kick demon ass and regain his sense of self. Promise.
Cuddle away, sweetie. Am sure he'd love to be snuggled and kicking some demon ass would defo be of the good! *grins* BFN

awesome chap! And congrats on your awards!!! *hugs you* I would have offered my congrats before if I'd known, but alas, I've been guilty of keen not-knowingness lately *sighs* I sure don't have to work too hard to hate Angel in this fic, that's for sure.
Thank you, Stacy! And thank you again! *hugs you back hard* You have far more important things on your mind right now, hun. Angel does seem to be a very hateable souled vamp in this 'cos I sure don't like him! *hugs* xxx

this chapter made me cry...the way you dealt with spike's past, and the way he told buffy, so real i could almost feel it myself, and absolutely beautifully done...i love your buffy, so tender and compassionate with him...and i hope she kick's angels butt and how for what he did to spike!!! awesome update!!
No tears! They make your eyes and nose go red - eeeeewwwww! Thanks, Jessi, am so happy that you liked this chappie as was a bugger to do. Now why does nobody like Angel? Mmmm. *hugs* BFN

I think I missed an update so I got two chapters this evening. Lucky me! I hope Buffy can keep Angelus away from Spike without majory injuries (emotional and/or physical) but it doesn't seem likely. More story please.
Will have to wait and see what happens, I'm afraid. *grins* More when it's ready, hun. BFN

final made time to read this very interesting tale. like the mature buffy, spike is loveable in all his contradictions, and tossing in a joker (ethan) makes for an fascinating read. thanks for the read.
My pleasure and thank you so much for reviewing. i hope you continue to enjoy. BFN

Poor Spike. I just wanna cuddle him and stake stupid Angel. I'm glad that Buffy didn't rush to protect the big poof. And Giles too. That guy, always getting stuck one way or another. Great chapter sweetie!
Thank you, hun! Giles does seem to get himself into fixes quite easily, bless 'im. And I will make sure that sufficient cuddles reach Spike - one way or another! So glad you liked. *hugs* BFN

Thank you for the update, it was truly upsetting hearing Spike's story. I liked Buffy's reaction and her promise to Spike, and I am looking forward to what happens when Angel appears. Congratulations on your awards, they are well deserved. I always look forward to your updates, and the extra time spent on this chapter was certainly worth it, and I will always look forward to the updates no matter the length of time between postings, after all you can only do what you can do. :)
Thank you for your kind words about the chapter, and thank you for your congrats on the awards - am very happy on both counts! Hoping to be back soon. *hugs* BFN

Aaaat laaaaaasst...my-y loo-o-oove has come alooong...
So happy that these two weeks are over, and I'm hoping that we get to see this fic every Monday, but, if it's not possible, it's not like I can just stop reading it! Your extra time on this chapter was very well spent, I think you re-told Spike's tale very effectively, and with just the right amount of detail, or lack thereof. It is making Buffy and Spike's relationship seem all the more real, and full of feeling. I'm eager as always to see where all of this plot is going to end up, and I can't wait for the next chappie! Super job, hon!

Thank you, Coquine! Am well happy that you feel the wait was worth it. Not an easy chapter to balance and gave me many headaches - and heartaches - so am really appreciative that you feel it works. *grins*
Plot is definitely going somewhere (I've got it all scribbled down) but may not get wrapped up neatly with a bow on top. Working on next chapter now and keeping fingers crossed! *hugs* BFN

Excellent chapter. Poor Spike - so much horror! Poor Rupert, who will come looking for him? I like the way Buffy handles Spike's story and think her moderate response is very affective. Thanks!
Thank you, Pin! Good question - who will come looking for Giles? Hmmm. I wonder.
So glad you liked, hun, and thanks for reviewing. BFN

You did a great job of getting Spike's feelings across throughout the chapter. I was really proud of the way Spike handled himself in the tough situation he was in. He showed so much inner strength and courage, and i'm so glad Buffy recognized that fact. Wonderful update... and congrats on winning the awards!
Thank you, Irina! I was really happy with the awards - but am even more happy that you are enjoying. Pleased that Spike's fortitude came across - was what I'd hoped for. *hugs* BFN

Interesting chapter (Im so original, aren't I? LOL!) I like the honesty between Buffy and Spike, and I hope she kicks Angel's ever lovin' arse when he gets there!
Thank you, Nikkole! The kicking of a certain arse may take a while but is certainly on my agenda - just need to persuade the main characters (and don't think that will take too much!). BFN

I love it...it's worth all the awards and the wait!
