~~~~~~~~~~



A/N: This story has been sitting half finished on my computer for about three months now, and I'm hoping posting it will encourage me to finish it off.



All of my fics apart from this one are of a canon variety, AU is not something I've done a whole lot of. I like my vampires! LOL. But, a friend of mine did really enjoy what she'd read of this fic so I figured what they hell.



I hope you guys enjoy 'Making Waves' - this archive is the only place it has ever been posted on. Now, onto the fic!



~~~~~~~~~~



Summary:AU - After her parents messy divorce, Buffy and her mother moved out of LA and into the sleepy little town of Sunnydale, hoping for a fresh start. New town, new school, new friends, it was a chance to start over. But life in Sunnydale doesn’t run as smoothly as Buffy had hoped, and it has a little something to do with a bleach haired menace she literally bumped into on her first day. Yes, this is a high school fic guys!

*squishes* to Sue for the beta job. She did a great job of sorting stuff out… but then I had to go and fiddle around with my plot some more. So if there are any mistakes, they’re mine and not something over-looked by her.



And I’m sorry this didn’t go up sooner - it was my brother-in-laws birthday this weekend and mix that with a crazy week at work and uni and you get over-tired and stressed Amy. The party was great and just the break I needed. Expect a new chapter mid-week!

A/N: Hi guys! Firstly, wanna say sorry for the delay with this chapter. RL got kinda crazy (uni) and unfortunately it's not going to smooth out for at least a few weeks because OMG I'm moving out of home!

This chapter is dedicated to Alyx, one of my faithful readers who is the absolute sweetie responsible for this lovely banner!



Guys, your reviews encourage me to write more so keep 'em coming! (Yes, that was a shameless beg for attention. LOL) Anyway, on to the new chapter!

A couple of notes before the chapter:



My website When Hearts Collide has been completely reworked. The layout is new and fresh and much easier to navigate. A couple of lovely fanart ladies are creating banners and icons for all my fics so in about a weeks time the site will be even prettier! But anyway, check out the site and leave me a message on the tagboard or send me a comments form (found on the site info page) with your thoughts! On to the chapter!

A/N: I know it’s been a very long time since I updated this story – and for that I apologise. The last few months of 2006 were incredibly hectic with uni. I have accomplished quite a bit of writing the past week and now have a few reserve chapters of this fic up my sleeve. So another update will be coming soon and hopefully there won’t be too many long delays in the future.



I won’t make any promises though because I know I am going to be busy now that I have an engagement party to plan. Yes, I’m getting married! My boyfriend proposed to me last week. Anyway, onto the chapter – I hope you enjoy it.

42. Chapter 42 - Consequences by angelic_amy [Reviews - 9] (3100 words)
There was at least two places in this chapter where my instinct was to cut the chapter, but I refrained, considering the number of "oh my god, evil cliffhanger" reviews I've received in the past.

43. Chapter 43 by angelic_amy [Reviews - 2] (3450 words)
A/N: It's been a loooooong time between updates, thanks to RL interruptions and a harddrive eating 15 chapters of this. (Yes you read that right, I had 15 chapters sitting and waiting to post before my harddrive crashed.) But I've recovered most of it and am determined to complete this. Making Waves has been a WIP for too long so I'm dusting off my keyboard and focussing on getting it finished. I just hope that people still want to read it!
