Ooo! Angel's baaack! Great scene with him coming to her in the classroom. Eerie in it's mirroring of the night Angelus tried to kill her. Loved it. Very well done.
I LOVED that you made the snow their own little Christmas miracle. I much prefer to think that it snowed for them, rather than for Angel and Buffy up on that hill, so much cuter!
Hmmm...weird dream at the end there...I dunno how I feal about the almost-kiss-type-thing. Interesting, can't wait to see where it leads...
OH! The Scoobies are gonna have a field day when they find out they're back together! Is there any chance we can get a glimps of the reactions!? *is hopeful*
All in all, a great way to get those two back together, as they're meant to be. Keep up the fab work. I'm super excited (as always) to see what fate has in store for our Twosome! :D

As for the dream/almost-kiss: I've always been fascinated with the dynamic between Jenny and Angel. The whole, her-family-cursed-him, he-saved-her-life, he-wanted-her-dead, she-was-trying-to-save-him thing. I thought fleshing it out could create some interesting conflict for season three. Giles and Jenny can't have an immediate happy ending, after all! I'd run out of stuff to write about real fast! ;)
And yes, the kids will enjoy that the Mommy-and-Daddy of the Scoobs have reconciled :D
So glad you liked this, and I'm always appreciative of the comments!

Nah, I like it, and I agree about the dynamic of their relationship being quite interesting. Major moral confliction going on there. I'm intrigued...

Glad I've got you intrigued, though! And just so you never have a doubt, I'll assure you right now: Giles and Jenny are meant to end up together. The end :P

Also...*SQUEEEEEE* Wesley with Jenny! I'll admit, I have pondered many-a-times about how Jenny would react to Wesley. And vise versa. The very thought makes me giggle with anticipation, hehehehehehehehehehe...

YES. I am SO excited to write Wesley interacting with Jenny. I always imagined he would try to flirt mercilessly with her, since he is virtually a young Giles, and Jenny would be SO, "Ugh, whatever" about him. Not sure how I'll play Giles' reactions yet though :D

Perhaps a little insecure Giles (he did just lose his vocation, after all), but not much, and only at the very begining... moreso angry, snippy, and impatient Giles, when dealing with Wesley. At least, that's how I saw it. Jenny can be his rant partner. They can complain together. It'll be grand.

ETA: I totally agree about the Giles-impatience when it comes to Wesley, too. I always loved that about their dynamic. Especially when it got to the prom episode and Wesley was whining about Cordelia -- Giles was hilarious and just SO tired of him, hahaha!

I know, some of my favorite quotes comes from Giles talking to Wesley.
"You have the emotional maturity of a bluberry scone." and "For God's sake, man, she's EIGHTEEN! Just, have at it will you? And stop blithering about!"
It makes me smile every time.
