A very interesting case developing for sure, and an interesting glance into their pasts. More to come. Update soon!

Author's Response: I'm so glad you are interested in the case, I don't have a lot of confidence in it but I'll do my best. Hope you continue to enjoy, thanks for your support!

Regarding him with a pitying look, she asked, “Don’t you ever pick a battle you can win?”

But I love that he always tries! Great start. And already they sizzle, even if it is with ire!

Author's Response: I love that about Spike too. I love that description, 'sizzling with ire.' I'll remember it.

Can it be William is finally getting over the childish notion that somebody like Buffy Summers actually owes him any explanation for her life?
And I can't wait to find out more about Buffy!!!!!!!

Author's Response: Ha, unlikely. Hope some of your curiosity will be satisfied in week four. There are many layers to her yet to be uncovered. Thank you for reading and reviewing!

Like the fact that Spike is seeing Buffy in a new light! Also wondering how Buffy can have a relationship when Angel is never around! Can't wait for more!

Author's Response: You will find out exactly where Angel is before too long. 8000 miles away... He will be away for a while ;) Thanks for your review!

Great chapter, can't wait to find out more. Also, I loved Xander's disbelief in Buffy being a cop due to her size.

Author's Response: I'm happy you liked Xander's response! Turns out there really were a lot of physical discrimination restrictions on police in the past. Thank you so much for reading.

And of course, when will William/Spike and Buffy meet again ?

I love kick ass Buffy! Too often in AU stories she's a total delicate flower weakling. I love the Buffy that you have written. She's smart, strong, and determined. Hopefully this will be a slap in Spike's face to wake up and see that she is no rich brat but a really cool person!

Author's Response: I am delighted to hear you have taken so well to this version of Buffy. I agree, Spike can't remain in denial much longer... can he? ;) Thank you very much for reading and reviewing!

I am sorry to hear about your loss, I can empathize with your situation.

Great chapter. I'm really enjoying this story and I can't wait to learn more about both Buffy and Spike's backgrounds. Thank you so much for the update!

Author's Response: Thank you for your comments. It was an expected passing, but death is still always sad, isn't it? Hope you are doing well yourself. Happy to hear you are enjoying the story.

Okay I just discovered this story and I love it. The dialogue is witty and sharp, I just love your writing style and the characterizations of William and Buffy. Spot on pefect. I'm sorry to hear about the death in the family, take all the time you need to post the rest. Although I think it is needless to say that I am definitely interested to see where you take this story.

Author's Response: I'm so glad you found it and like it. Thank you very much for the positive feedback, encouragement, and condolences, all. Hope I will be able to maintain your readerly interest.

Ahh... the many layers of Buffy.. black belt, cop, cute little rich girl.. And Spike .. a scraper in his days.. LOL

Author's Response: You are so perceptive, Pam. I half-realized last week Buffy probably has too many layers to be wholly believable but I'm pretty committed to her as this complex incarnation so lots of backstory to come. The 'real' Buffy was complicated too, right? Currently ex-cop btw! Thanks for reading and reviewing.

I love this story, love the detail. Honestly think I need to re-read the details of the case because that was suddenly super-plot heavy. Buffy is so awesome in this story.

Author's Response: Hi Minx, thanks for your kind words. I hope re-reading will help, I can't guarantee it! ; p I feel like plot is the bane of my existence right now.

I have no problem with fics where Spike is an arrogant horses rear-end, providing he gets fed a suitable helping of humble pie at some point. Do not like fics where women fall for guys who are actively bullying and insulting them. William needs to apoligize and grovel a bit first.

Author's Response: Ha, love your take and I agree. It's gonna be an uphill battle. Hope you won't be disappointed.

Beautiful start, very in character and well-written. I love the title, too.

Author's Response: I am so pleased that you are liking it. Ha yes, the title: I loved that line in "Crush," b/c it was such a funny and yet bizarrely fitting notion, that Spike and Buffy were just in a typical co-workers situation.

I just caught up to this story. You have me totally hooked and I was sad when I reached the end of the 3rd chapter. First of all, Spike can definitely be described as a sexist male chauvinist pig. If somebody did that to me....ooh, there would be wrath or tears or both. But saying that, I still am in to his character and can't wait to see what's behind the prickly facade.

Also, coming from LA and specifically Montebello which is smack dab next to Monterey Park, I appreciate your more accurate portrayal in LA. My biggest pet peeve when reading an LA based story is when they generalize the city as a whole or have characters "walking to downtown". Haven't people heard the song about how "Nobody walks in LA"?

Author's Response: Hi there, thanks for your comments! Yeah, I think he does border on sexism or cross right over it sometimes. I'll keep that in mind. I think he's usually a jerk to everyone though and Buffy would seem out of place to any observer as head of an agency at her age--just to say he doesn't believe women aren't as capable as men in general. I'm glad LA rang true, it's been a long time since I lived there. I intended MP as a little joke because it's LA's Chinatown. Do you want a spoiler? You'll find out that Buffy's house is in Culver City. ;)

William, has it occured to you that she doesn't feel she owes you any explanations?

Author's Response: Ha, yes! What does he expect? True Confessions from a girl he's belittled and alienated? Thank you for commenting and hope you aren't finding his characterization too annoying.

Interesting look at the dynamics of Will's friends. Mmmm...Angel offers an interesting twist also. Looking forward to more.

Author's Response: Yes, I was thinking of season seven when there was that funny scene where Buffy, Xander, Anya, and Spike had to explain how they had all had these incestuous pairings. And the Gunn/Fred/Wes thing was just straight from Angel, of course. Thank you as always for commenting!
