So glad you're updating this one.

Author's Response: I\'m ashamed of how long it\'s taken me, but had 2 eye operations so writing severely curtailed. But all well now so back to work with a vengeance!

Summary: Buffy and Dawn Summers have just moved into a new house and Buffy's already made enemies with their next door neighbor, Spike. He's kind of a jerk, she's kind of a bitch, and they hate each other on sight. But can the teenage Dawn's unlikely friendship with Spike soothe the tension between the two feuding adults...and possibly turn it into something (much) more pleasant?

Is Jason turning out to be a bad influence? Is Buffy going to stop kidding herself that Spike is a bad idea? Will Drussilla ruin another Spuffy moment? I am SO glad this story's back!

Author's Response: All the answers to those questions will be revealed! Possibly not in the next chapter, but we\'re getting there. :) Thanks for reading and reviewing!

Finally! They made it to the bed! But is Buffy going to do her usual and run away in the morning, virtue fluttering? And how much trouble will Dawn get into for going to the party?

Author's Response: Those are very good questions! I\'m glad you\'re enjoying it. Thanks for reading & reviewing.

Summary: Drusilla tests Spike and he fails spectacularly. What will he do now that he has nothing left but his obsession with the slayer?


Begins during the summer between seasons three and four. Turns into a complete season four rewrite with little resemblance to the events in the series. Finally Finished!!!!







Winner At the Sunnydale Memorial Fanfiction Awards for best Angst, best original character and best original character pairing. Thanks to all who voted!!!

Can her crazy sister's wedding and Willow's drunken influences be enough to get her feelings out in the open or will her insecurities get the better of her.

I love that Angel is a (neutered?) territorial cat, and making Riley gay? Brilliant.

Author's Response: Yes I imagine him neutered and over territorial hehe. I had to do it, Riley being gay was too good to pass up. Glad you\'re enjoying it. Thankyou for the review!

Summary: Some believed it to be an urban legend while others swore that it was the truth. But whatever they believed, most citizens of Sunnydale avoided the old Crawford Street mansion and the ‘monster’ that supposedly lived there.

When Buffy and her boyfriend venture inside the rickety old house on a post-high school dare, suddenly the teenager finds everything that she thought to be true is turned on its head.

But can one from the light and one from the dark ever truly come together?


Note: Slayers/Vampires do exist in this 'verse but Buffy is not the slayer.

Like an eel on an acid trip - this has to be the best analogy I've seen for a lousy kiss. Keep going. Please?

Author's Response: Thanks! I will definitely be posting more. I\'m not sure when I\'ll post but hopefully soon. I am planning to complete this story. :)

Summary: The holidays were supposed to be a fun-filled time full of presents and overeating, but everything went down the drain when her mother decided to extend charity to a vampire.



The second Spike gave her a challenging smirk and charmed the reason out of her mother, Buffy knew that before the end of Christmas someone would die a painful horrible death. She’d just have to make sure it wasn’t her.

Chapter decidedly did not suck, so stop worrying. I'm curious - how many more near misses before they get together properly and Xander's head explodes?

Author's Response: *wipes sweat off forehead* Thank you!! :) Will Xander\'s head explode? Now, that\'s the question on everybody\'s lips. *g*

So how do we get from there through Glory to Spike getting a soul?

Author's Response: Well, that\'s the big question, right? :) And also the one that Buffy asks at the end: \"How do we get there from here?\" It was important to me not to tie things up in a neat little bow, because of how much fun it is to imagine all of the ways things could be different, now that they know what their future holds. But some of those questions will be addressed in a sequel that will hopefully be coming soon! Thanks so much for reading and reviewing! -H
