Something just occurred to me!

I know this was being searched for over at TSR and there is a posting here too. However, TSR made another forum posting called Cold Cases, and it got me thinking.

I know that one of the stories sounds so much like Now and Then by Sass Angel ( this is the link for SassAngels stories http://web.archive.org/web/20021231020603/www.changingreality.net/sassangel.htm), and I would agree too. However, there is another story very very much like it! Except one thing...It's post NFA not post Dead Things in Season 6.

Please if anyone can find this one...I know the poster (JO) posted it back in March, but I would so like to remember it! I think I have read it too!

Here's the description:

Spike is working for a loan shark with a daughter named Stacey who he is dating(not seriously) Buffy finds him because she needs his help, i think it's post NFA, anyway i remember Spike is having sex with Stacey and Buffy can hear them but he does go with her to help her. Been trying to remember where i read this but nothing.

(By this description...You think huh sounds like Now and Then, but doesn't. It's the NFA that throws people...AND darn it I know I have read this!)

If anyone can help find this it would help a great deal because I know it wracked this posters brain and now it's bothering me lol! I think it was seen over at Sinister Attraction or it could quite possibly be Kari Mouke's but I'm not entirely sure...I'm grasping at anything here! If you find it thank you...If not...bummer! Sounds like a good read.

I have tried to search on TSR for Stacey in the story but too many stories came up for me to check (the font is soo small, that's nothing I can do for long).
The longer I read your description the more I think I saw this story. But maybe I'm just mixing two stories. I think it wasn't a very known author that wrote it but that's just a feeling. (When I searched for a story one thinking I knew the author I searched the whole Sunday - for the wrong one *sigh*.)
I hope someone knows it.

I know the feeling...I hope someone knows too! If not I will find it damnit lol! Thanks for trying cordykitten!

hmmm... how strange only 4 stories came for me on 'Stacey'...

[cordykitten]

You're right - I got only four now.
*thinks*
I tried several, one Shark (not Stacey, sorry for confusing, I didn't type the right word, that was subconsciousness I think) and Dream too. *sigh* (long day yesterday it seems). Sadly I can't post the search list here. Today I've tried loan shark and this are less. But nothing catches my eyes.

Searched from here Spike works for a loan shark and Buffy needs his help. He has sex with a girl named Stacey which is not the name of the girl in Now and Then. This is while Buffy is in another room.

BTW Jo was looking for this story - sounds very similar. Spike is working for a loanshark with a daugther named Stacey who he is dating(not seriously) Buffy finds him because she needs his help, i think it's post NFA, anyway i remember Spike is having sex with Stacey and Buffy can hear them but he does go with her to help her. Been trying to remember where i read this but nothing.
Frustrating if you search for something and can't find it. *sigh*

tried loan shark myself just recently. took look into few nothing so far :( ahhhhhhh...

Yeah I saw that on Cold Cases...Sigh, this is why I was trying hard to remember where I had seen it. Sure sounds like Now and Then, but it's not. The girl is Stacey not Abby but now I'm thinking that maybe this could have been the story...but I know there is another story out there where Dawn is kidnapped...Irritating! lol...Thanks for the help...I tried to help JO out too and I just couldn't find it.
