I'm so happy that you liked the ending. With Giles, I've always thought he considered Xander an annoying child, in this fic he was forced to spend more time with Xander to discover another side of him. Giles had been very lonely in season three, he misses Jenny, he needs Jenny, he needs someone like Jenny, that's why his thoughts of Xander got a little twisted, while Xander needed something else. He needed a parent. It all crashed in the end because both expected something else from the other and it wasn't simple friendship.
