Awww! Yay! She took it better than I thought, but they obviously have some rough patches to work through. I have a feeling it will be worth the wait :) Lovely story so far.

Author's Response: Ohh yeah. Rough patches. I'm soo glad you are enjoying! Thanks for the reviews!! *hugs* I love new reviews = )

Meh! Now I wanna know what happens! Buffy's gonna be pissed he didn't push Dru away. Jealousy is definitely a facet of her personality. I was wondering if you'd like me to beta this chapter for you? The others are good but I noticed some errors in this. I'd be more than happy to correct it, if you'd like. :) If you're interested just e-mail me at vanilla_latte_buffy@yahoo.com

Author's Response: Ohh yay! Awesome. I'm glad you are enjoying and I would love for you to beta it if you want to. I will email you, but here is my email too xochantelly@yahoo.com Thanks for the reviews!!

Well I hate it and I love it at the same time. lol Make any sense? I hate Dru and her games, and I hate that Buffy is insecure enough to believe them. I wish she trusted Spike more. I love it because it's fabulous as always and it keeps me on the edge of my seat. Looking forward to more! :)

Author's Response: Heehee! Might get you to beta next chap. About half way done! Been making banners lately (workin on one for you) I'm glad you enjoyed it! Buffy is acting on her emotions right now, not thinking before doing, you know? Anyway, thanks for reading and reviewing!

YAY! *squee* I love, love, love this! I'm so glad they're not with all the angsty tension anymore. I love fluffy Spuffy bits :D Also glad he decided to stay. I think that was the right decision for him to make. Long distance relationships are SO difficult to keep (speaking from experience). Oh, and, one more thing... hot sex *winks and gives thumbs up*

Author's Response: I'm glad you loved it! And I agree, long distance sucks. I've done that once or twice. I'm glad you thought the smut was hot! Thanks for reviewing!

Buffy and Spike are the cutest. It was a nice ending and I enjoyed reading it :) I'm glad you got another WIP wrapped up. Now if I can just finish mine... lol I look forward to reading more of your stuff. I'm sure you have some interesting things in store. *blows kisses*

Author's Response: =d i'm glad you enjoyed. i'm happy i completed another WIP too, now if I could just get going on hdw... seems i'm stuck on that one. I have LOTS of things planned! Thanks for reviewing! *hugs*

Gah! This is so entertaining. :D I love it! hehe Can't wait to read more. And hopefully there will be smoochies... ;P

Awww! I loved that :) I can't wait to see how their relationship will progress.

Awww! This was totally one of the cutest things I've ever read. :D Loved it!

Tee hee ^^ I'm loving this. My only question isssss... why is her hair brown if it's blonde on the banner? O.o I don't know if you realize you did that or not, or maybe she'll dye her hair later? *shrugs* I was just curious. I like the promise of tension between Buffy and Spike. I have a feeling she's going to be breaking both of her rules. *snickers*

Ciao :)

Author's Response: Aw it's very good to hear that you're enjoying it so far! =) Mhm, well, it WAS supposed to be mysteriously unfolded later on but eh, what difference will it make? Yep, she does dye her hair later on but her hair is not mistakenly-typo brunette. It is actually brown. :P Tension there shall be! LOL. Anyways, thank you so much for reviewing, Kiera! *hugs*

Oy. More drama with Dru. But that's to be expected. She would be the one to try and fuck everything up for Buffy. Excited to see where this goes. :) I noticed something interesting in this chapter, when they were in English. You referred to Shakespeare as "Shakes". Is that how you came up with your pen name? If so, that's very creative :) If not, forget I mentioned it. lol Best of luck with the rest!

Ciao

Author's Response: Ha, yes that is definitely what Drusilla is all about: let's go see how much fucked-up-ness we can cause in Buff's life! God, I hate her. LOL anyways, regarding your question about my penname, it's actually kind of curious. It sort of just came to me (as corny and pretentious as that sounds, I oddly don't resent outrageously famous people who say that anymore with my dry sarcastic inner monologue) and then I was just like, "ZOMG. This is like a slangy version of Shakespeares' name." So yeah. There you have it; my glory days in techni-friggin-color! =D Thanks for your review, Kiera! *smooches*

*gasp* Cliff-hanger! That is SO unfair! *pouts and scampers off to read the continuation* (Looking forward to what's next) *winks* :)

Ciao

Author's Response: Haha, yaaaah, I'm, like, in love with cliffies though I never seem to be able to redeem myself when I write the follow up chapter. I hope I pass and thanks for reading, Kiera! *hugs*

AHA! I know EXACTLY why Ethan made her goalie. I figured it ouuuuut! *sing-songs* ^^ Very clever, btw. Her being the experienced forward that she is, she'll know exactly how the opposing forward is trying to score. Love it. I've picked up on the underlying notes of angst and possible foreshadowing. Should I be worried?

I feel that Spike should not have been blamed for his mother's murder. How would he have helped her from the other side of town, even if he had been sober? His family is obviously quite unreasonable. I think they all need to get their heads out of their asses. As for his father, well he can go rot in hell, or the equivalent thereof.

I do hope that Spike won't succumb to his gambling habits to help Connor out. I sense bad things would end up happening in that equation. I also hope that Spike and Buffy will continue to develop some sort of relationship, even if it is rocky in the beginning. At least she's admitted to herself that she likes him. That's step one. Now for the other 11... (j/k) Looking forward to reading more! :)

Ciao
