Wow! This story is riveting and I'm thoroughly hooked to it. I love the little tidbits you're showing us of how hurt Buffy truly is and I really hope Joyce does something before she loses her daughter. A question: Dru is not Joyce's daughter? Can't wait for more.

Author's Response: Dru's history is coming.........

Oh, oh! This man is getting creepier by the chapter. I loved that Spike is already falling for Buffy and is dodging Dru's advances. Can't wait for more!

Oh and they're getting so close. I'm happy that Hank finally is realizing what a great damage they inflicted on Buffy. And wow over the new revelations on why Drusilla is as she is. Can't wait for more!

Aww, I'm so glad she asked for Joyce, that will help them a lot into mending their relationship. I guess Dru is having a bad time knowing that things won't be the same now and even if I know I should feel bad for her, I just can't, she's just getting what she deserves. Can't wait for more!

Oh, loved this chapter, although it was quite an emotional rollercoaster. I loved the way Joyce leaned on Anya, how much she opened to her and then thanked her for being there for Buffy.



Then the part with Dru and the flashback to her childhood, I'm feeling so sorry for her now. I really hope they can help her, I know what she did was unforgivable, but after reading this, I think she deserves to be helped.



I loved Buffy and Joyce's reunion, it was so sweet, Precisely what Buffy needed. Thank God Joyce finally realized how much damage she had inflicted to her daughter. I imagine that it won't be pretty when she faces Dru over her lie.



Can't wait for more!

If I haven't said it lately, I'm going to say it now: I love this story. I love how real your characters are, how much detail and emotion you imprint in each chapter. I'm so glad that Dru decided to talk and that Hank decided to be a good father for her and back her up, I'm not sure how she's going to react to the news that Spike and Buffy are in love, but I have the feeling it won't be pretty. I loved how caring Maggie is in this story and I imagine that being in that situation, that's the type of person that I would like to take care of me. Can't wait for more!

I'm loving Jenny already. I'm sure she'll be wonderful with Dru. :D And I loved that she's been there for Ethan when he's needed her, too. :D


I'm liking Hank more and more with each passing chapter, he really is trying to make a conscious effort to be better for his family. It was so sweet that he went to Buffy's room and lied down on her bed, feeling better just to smell her scent. :D


I'm so happy that Buffy's nightmares have stopped, I hope it is for good. And the exchange between her and Spike was so lovely and well, loving. I loved that she felt so unsure about her morning looks until she remembered how he'd looked at her and that meanwhile Spike was hoping that she wouldn't try to change anything. The last bit made me laugh and now I can't wait to find out what his surprise is. :D

Aww, this chapter was just perfect, Kimber. I loved the Spuffyness and how compenetrated they are with the other. I have to be honest and accept that I had forgotten that there was such a big age difference between them, they just seem to fit so well that that takes a back step I guess.

Loved the little insight into all that Joyce is going through and I liked that Dru is beginning to feel hope that everything might get better for her. I really hope it does, especially considering what she went through.

Faith was so...dare I say sweet? Even under her tough exterior, the love she feels for her friend is palpable.

I'm loving this story so much, thank you and I can't wait for more!

Summary: Post "Something Blue," Buffy and Spike have become somewhat friends since Willow's spell ended. Buffy gets injured one night and it changes everything. Will they become more than friends?

Fini? Oh please tell me you're continuing this? Pretty please? I loved the story, it was a wonderful twist and the characterizations were dead on. Spike as a teacher was priceless, the Spuffy interaction was very hot and I just adored that Buffy didn't notice Spike was a vampire until she felt his fangs in her neck. *lol*

Author's Response: lol, well Buffy didn't realise that Angel was a vampire right away either did she? hmmm? Thanks for the review. No plans for a sequel at the moment.
