I have a feeling, that this fic is going to mirror parts of Wuthering Heights. I'm I right, is there going to be loads of angst and me shouting at Buffy later on???

grat chap now on to the next! xx

Author's Response: Well, it was supposed to have more tie-ins, but then I'm not sure what happened, it got away from me and other stuff happened, lol. Thanks for the review, Kat! :)

This is really a cute fic! Can't wait to see what happens

Author's Response: Thank you! Glad you like it! Thanks for reviewing.

Buffy's already weaving her spell over him :D The minx! I like this story...it's a lot fresher than some of the other high school drama fics I've read.

Author's Response: Oh, that's the nicest compliment. I'm trying. There are (perhaps) unavoidably going to be really familiar settings and situations, I'm just hoping to do the best I can to dress them a little differently if possible. Thanks for the review!

I'm loving this story. Can't wait to see where you go with it.

Author's Response: Thank you! Me either! lol :) Thank you for reviewing.

Love reading this kind of high school AU. Doesn't every girl wish for moments like these? And discussing Wuthering Heights, well...sorry got lost in my daydream. :-)

Author's Response: Oh good, I'm glad you're enjoying it. I don't know about every girl, but I do! Thanks for reviewing :)

OH that was good, more please.

Author's Response: Thanks! :)

when i read the title, i was all 'again? AGAIN? oh boy, di i miss the first one?' lol

anyway, this fic is getting better and better. i just knew it! ;P

loved the lesson, and how they interact (buffy's first paper was hilarious)... and yes, i do think cathy was stupid too! lol

Author's Response: Haha. Yes, I knew the title was a little misleading :) Thank you very much. I'm glad you're enjoying it.

Hehe, me too. William's "not one of my favorite characters" is my opinion, though of course the book is good.

Love this story, both characters are so full of potential. William can definitely get edgier and tougher and Buffy can be more intelligent and less fake. It looks like they'll start affecting each other; William affecting Buffy with the tutoring and Buffy probably affecting William with her looks and coy flirtatiousness. I love how she kinda tried to use her looks in this chapter to get her way, with the pout and touch. Even though she probably wasn't aware she was having that effect on him (and he on she with his voice), it's just fun to see the high school relationship of self-consciousness and shyness develop. Wuthering Heights is one of my favorite novels, and I found it rather peculiar that you included it in the story. I hope you just put it in because it reminded you of Spuffy on the show, or that it was your favorite book or something, and not that the events in the book will be repeated in this fic. Of course, this is a high school fic, so maybe you're just alluding to the social class differences. At any rate, it was a fun read, and I'm looking forward to more.

Author's Response: I like how William didn't let her get away with it, even though he was affected by her. Yes, trying really hard to remember back that far and what it felt like. Insecurity and confusion is what comes to my mind for that period for me.

Don't worry, this won't be an exact Wuthering Heights rewrite done in high school Spuffy (not sure how I'd accomplish that one anyway!). I wandered into using it for Buffy's report because I liked that quote and Buffy needed something to work on. I also liked the description of Cathy's love for Heathcliff, even though technically I suppose it's meant to be a cautionary tale.

I was kinda cursing myself after I did it, because I read it 15 years ago, so I had to go brush up a little. Initially, I liked that, as you said, the social class differences are there and that's very similar to a high school situation. In the book, who you marry can determine/raise/lower your 'worth'. In high school, make friends with the wrong person and you're branded. There may be some parallel things or events that happen along the way. I'm sort of still in the planning stage now, so anything I say now would probably end up not being true!. I will say that it's not going to be a tragic disaster like Cathy and Heathcliff. Just me personally, but I do hate getting hooked on a fic in progress and then everyone gets killed off in the end. (Unless they do it in a really cool way, then I still hate it, but I can appreciate it!) I will admit to cheating sometimes and looking at the last page of suspicious completed fics to prevent this from happening (just to see if there's a happy Buffy and Spike). Only one person has tricked me so far and that was by putting a happy dream sequence at the end even though Spike was dead! I was so bummed...lol. So, consider the last page looked at - there will be a happy ending of some sort. 'Cause I'm a sap. A long-winded sap. Thanks for the review.

Added you; now you are able to check the memory section of my LJ if I give you links / can see the icons etc.
Ah.. that's why Buffy wrote it; she thinks she has a maintain her reputation. I hope she won't forget what it may cost her...
Loved the update :)

Author's Response: Oh, thank you very much! I appreciate it.

Yes, Buffy's a little status conscious. Thank you and thanks for reviewing!

very nice :) love spike and buffy's characters in this; both generally good people but seperated by the high school ladder of popularity..i love it!!

Author's Response: Thank you! Yes, very separated - for now! Thanks for reviewing.
