"Definitely a someday,"

Would've she died if she told this at "Crush"?I remember him begging her for a "maybe,someday",while running after him.Am I right,or am I mixing the show and fictions?
Either way,it'd be nice for her to say it.
Great chapter,I liked it.:)
Spike says this in "Crush":   Just ... give me something ... a crumb ... a barest smidgen ... tell me ... maybe, someday, there's a chance.

So yeah, pretty niffty.  Just play close attention to Drusilla in the last chapter, and her parting words...

Loved it.  Gave me the warm fuzzies : )
Cool beans :D  I'm all about the "hope."  And, since you finished this already (I think), that's what Dru was referring to--"Someday..."

She was frozen in place—struck immobile due to his powerful, unwavering stare; and the only thing that let her know for certain that this moment was real was the invisible grip on her heart, causing it to beat erratically.

Just beautiful!!!

Wow this has been a very deep story the writing is very well done.
Thank you so much, Diesa. I hope you like the ending as well (there's only two chapters left).

This is so sweet...and I really liked Giles's reactions.
Thanks so much Joyce :) I'm glad that my depiction of Giles came across as true and enjoyable for you.

We will all be waiting for "someday" and hoping it won't be too long.
Sorry if it was too long--the update, I mean. There's only one more chapter after this one, and I hope I don't disappoint. Thank you for reviewing :D

short and very sweet works well, thank you. and there are bonus points granted for not including xander's ranting, whether about anya or what buffy is doing wrong. very good read, thank you, luv.
I'm glad there wasn't a void of some kind where Xander's speech should've been ;) The last two chapters will be much longer than this, but I hope you'll think it's still sweet. Thanks for reviewing :D

awwww, so sweet :) love how things are working out between them...you've done a lovely job with this, pet :)
Thanks so much DoS :) Of course, there'll be a few hiccups...but heck, you know the rest ;)

OH we have a someday.
Yup--there's a definite light at the end of the tunnel, and it's not a freight train :nod:

Thanks for reviewing :)

Awwwwww...Buffy handled that really, really well!! Yay for Spike. No rejection this time.

Oh, "devine", should actually be "divine".
Thanks kim :) I hope you feel the same about Buffy's behavior in the update, lol.

Lovely feeling of the inevatible there! Nicely done discussion with believable voices throughout.

Thanks so much, Kathleen. I'm glad I was able to keep it believable :D Hope the ending will be just as enjoyable for you.

Lovely chapter. Buffy's so nice when she's being ... well, nice. To have her jump immediately into his arms would be unrealistic, but I think you handled her reaction in a way that's both in character and very sweet. Great job. I look forward to reading the epilogue. :)
Well, I nixed the epilogue, and instead have two final chapters. Anyway, I hope you feel that these last two bits are in character as well. Thanks so much for reviewing :D

Awwwww -- that was so sweet! They're going to make a lovely couple!
They still have a few trials ahead of them, but yeah, I agree. Thanks for reviewing :)

Very nice. I really appreciate that Giles has not toally lost it and gone homicidal on Spike. Lovely little conversation at the end. thanks so much for the update.
*gg* Giles is a rational man one hundred percent of the time (in this fic ;)

Thank you for reviewing.

Simple yet sweet. I like dhow Buffy didn't give Spike any mixed signals or shoot him down like she did on the show. She gave him hope, and hopef or her. Can't wait until your next update to see what happend. As I told you before I really enjoyed this story, thanks hon for sharing!
Thanks so much GB for your review :D All I can say is this: Buffy's true feelings are going to be tested in these final two chapters, and I hope you enjoy those as well.
