Claps hands in glee! Yah Buffy's followed him to the Gym which I was hoping she would. With her wrist out of action I can't see there are many pieces of equipment she'd be able to use? Looking forward to the next chapter.

Author's Response: Yes, several people predicted it (well, what else could happen, I suppose, have them apart for the whole story? Already did that in my other one). Well, she can use free weights, and leg machines and the treadmill and...we'll have to see. I'm glad you're still enjoying it. Thanks for leaving a review! :)

Will, you're really being a dummy.

Ah, the shallow stuff isn't working for her anymore, but she hasn't quite figured it out, yet. Time to embrace your brain, Buff.

Author's Response: A little bit, yeah.

No, well, who can go back to shallow after hanging out with a guy who can talk about interesting topics? Yes, she needs to actually use her brain, that'd be good. However, at least she's being persistent. Thanks so much for reviewing! :)

Poor William, he just can't see that Buffy wants to be his friend. Great chapter, looking forward to the next! :)

Author's Response: No, he's still a bit blind on that. Thank you and thanks for reviewing! :)

Poor William. He really doesn't have a clue. I hope you get Buffy to explain why she wants to be friends with him. I don't think he is going to get it if Buffy doesn't actually tell him.

Great of Jenny to be concern with William doing too much. But keeping busy is how some people deal with everything that is going bad in their life.

Author's Response: Oh, I don't know. At some point he'll probably get it :)

Yes, keeping busy can be a good way to cope. Thanks so much for reviewing :)

Looks like you're way further here than you are on LJ. Though I like the communication possibilities available on LJ better, I think I'm going to be reviewing here. At least as long as it takes for you to catch up there :)

Great chapter, btw

Author's Response: Thanks! Yes, sorry. I'm new to LJ and I just don't want to inundate Spuffy Fantasy when I go through a quick bunch of chapters as I have been. I feel as though that's rude. Here I don't think anyone minds if I post somewhat rapidly. Thanks for reviewing :)

I have really been enjoying this story. It is very well written and the plot exeptionally interesting, more.....please :)

Author's Response: Thank you! I got uh...waylaid by a really good fic and that will put the update back a tiny bit. I need to get back into my story, lol. If you haven't read it, Let's Get Lost by Herself is REALLY good. Thanks for reviewing!

good chapter.

keep on writing

MOa from Germany

Author's Response: Thank you! I'll try to write today, depending on work :) Thanks for reviewing!

poor Buffy. Maybe her dad means well but maybe he's just a jerk. And William brushing her off.

Author's Response: Yeah...I think he's just a jerk. Mostly. As you said, poor Buffy. Thank you for reviewing :)

ah, sweet Buffy. Dru is evil, with the hair-bleaching. But she isn't too nutty, which is good.

Author's Response: Dru is...bored...which is bad...if you're William. At least she's not vamp Dru. Bored vamp Dru is much more fatal. Thanks for leaving a review! :)

I really - REALLY - like where you're going with this, and with Buffy's inability to tell him why she wants him to stick around, that it's not about studying anymore. Yeay! Go you! :)

Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad you like how it's shaping up. It'll meander, it'll mosey, but it'll end up spuffy at some point. Thanks for the encouragement! :)

It's good seeing Buffy as the caring one and Spike as the one without a clue :P

Author's Response: haha. Well, without a clue is a little harsh maybe, he does have quite a bit else on his mind. But yes, it's nice to have a caring Buffy for once. Thanks for reviewing!

I just read this story for the first time - I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!! Thought it was funny when Dru just bleached his hair like that - shows her nuttyness in an amusing light. I think the way you're showing Williams confusion and pain is well written. Would have preferred more sparks and 'moments' between William and Buffy , not just him avoiding her all the time - but I'm an optimist and I hope they will come... : )
Again I really loved this wonderful fic.

Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you like it. There will be more William and Buffy interaction :) Thanks so much for taking the time to review, I appreciate it!

Stop worrying about the length of your chapters.. some authors don't update for a month sometimes.

As far as Dru, almost feel sorry for her. Tries to show off for Daddy and he could care less.

And Buffy, trying so hard to get William's attention. Maybe she can start working out at the gym. Like Dawn would help her William !!

Knowing Parker is going to try something at the Bronze and William will have to protect her again.

And last but not least, Giles has a relationship with Buffy's mother. Huh.. Gotta a lot of twists and turns going on. Like it.

Enjoying..

Author's Response: I know, I just don't want updates to disappoint.

Yes, she just wants a little attention that she's not likely to get.

OH MY GOD. Are you psychic? Quit that! lol. Yeah, like Dawn's going to help Buffy out anytime soon.

Yeah, she has to get through the Parker date. Ick. Rotten Hank.

Well, didn't you wonder why she was so familiar with the librarian? hehe. Yes, Giles has been a family friend for a long time. Though I imagine he's not fond of Hank.

Thanks, as always, for reviewing! :)
