Good start, nice and solid. Visually looks like a story, though the '---' and '***' are a bit distracting. Slows the flow a bit. Whilst a bit more of a gap between the chapters, an extra line or two only, to give more a break to show the end of one chapter and the begining of the next. Otherwise don't touch the spacing.
Looking forward to the rest. a good read.

Author's Response: Thanks for reviewing, hope you like the rest x

I saw this last night; I won't read on LJ then when I'm here already The font is bigger anyway. BTW - could you make the divider a little smaller / shorter for the next chapters? It forces me to scroll when I want to read.
(Love your LJ icons BTW. Did you make them and if yes, are they snaggable?)

But now to the story:
Ah it's after Willow's 'Will be done' spell. And I can only admire Buffy's ability to fill in the blanks. :D
Sounds as if Buffy jinxed it...now her blouse is torn.
Spuffywise it's good to see that Spike that Spike hasn't forgotten the spell (or better: Buffy) either; that saved her life.
Well done (especially for your first story). Hope you'll write more after this one.
Looking forward to the rest.

Author's Response: Hi, thanks for the review. First off - LJ icons totally snaggable, some gifs I made, others were up for grabs elsewhere. I'll be posting thr rest of this fic in the next couple days so hope you enjoy it. ps. I'm a complete newbie when it comes to posting on sites so can you explain the dividers bit? I was just impressed to work out how get it in italics! lol x

This is a great start. Can't wait for more.

Author's Response: thanks, will get the rest posted very soon x

I really liked this chapter and definitely want to follow how things go from here and what happens next. Buffy's thoughts of Spike in the beginning might have lasted too long, especially as she was supposed to be in the middle of a fight where she was wounded. Spike's voice in his own thoughts and outlook was very well done. Considering this is your first fic, I was surprised at how great the make-out and build up was-- so many new authors are stumbling in those types of scenes or overdo the details or melodramatic thoughts, but you pulled me right in to berlieving what was happening between them, moving forward smoothly.

Great job!

Author's Response: Oh thankyou, I'm glad you're enjoying it x

Loving this! More please!

Author's Response: Thanks, more on the way x
