Title: Chapter 23: Coming Clean
I'm still enjoying this story - no matter which site I find it on.
Summary: Season Six, < Winner of Best Original Character in Blood Ties Awards Round 4. > Updated summary: A party, lots of demons, hatred, passion, white hot jealousy and several glasses of pink champagne. Not a good mixture for a Slayer and a Vampire whose cousin is trying to make Buffy admit her feelings.....

I think I reviewed this somewhere else, but just in case....Loving it! Must have missed something if people are complaining about the britishisms. Hard to believe that even if someone had never read any thing else using British/Aussie terminology, that context itself wouldn't make meanings perfectly clear. Be that as it may, great, fun little story and looking forward to an update.

OMY, Temp! Is this the fight scene you were struggling with? It rocked! And way to leave us dangling with an evil cliff hanger! More, immediately, please! (Oh, God, do I sound like Wulfie? Whine!)
Author's Response: Yep, you sound a little like our beloved Wulfie... Never mind, I won't tell anyone, it'll be our little secret ;-) And alas no, this is not my dreaded fight scene, this was considered easy to write compared to that scene... LOL. Thanks for your support Patti; I know I've been very slack with responding to my reviews, but I always read them… I’m a bit of a review slut.
Summary: Rewrite of the end of Chosen, then goes AU. Based on the Sarah McLachlan song, "Do What You Have to Do."

This was quite touching. I hope it isn't finished yet.
