he’s always had a way of defying (exceeding) her expectations
Yes, he always does - doesn't he?
she will feel like her heart’s been ripped out all over again....But it won’t be. Because somewhere along the line, she gave it to Spike, and if she knows one thing for certain (the only thing she knows for certain in this chaotic world), it is that he will do anything to keep it safe (the lines between love and trust blur till they’re the same thing or maybe they always were).
Yes, because Spike has always been love's bitch and he really is man enough to live up to that ideal.

Beautifully bittersweet.
