All Human Uni Fic

[amyxaphania.livejournal.com]

Looking for a fic. It's all-human, Spike/Buffy. Buffy and Willow are attending university in England. I think Buffy is together with Riley... but then she meets Spike and they start to get closer. I remember a couple of details - Buffy visited Spike's room for cups of tea, he'd leave notes on her car windscreen. I seem to remember something about her father wanting her to go back to the states... not sure about that, though.

I have a feeling I read it on Sinister Attraction (not entirely positive), but can't remember the title or author name to look it up on the wayback machine... if anyone knows either, that'd be great :)

Sounds really familiar. I want to say "Blue Horizons," but...definitely an SA fic, though.

Man, that takes me back!

No, not Blue Horizons. Do love that one, though...

Um..."Never Just Friends" by Moxie?

That's my last guess. Hope you find it.

Or is it "Long Way From Home" by Bitten[andstaked]? I wish I had a link - last I checked her website was down.

I've just looked that one up using wayback, but I don't think it's the one I'm looking for. It does fit the description though.

Could it be "Never Be The Same Again" by Forever Me ? http://web.archive.org/web/20071113000850/www.sinister-attraction.org/stories/f/neverbethesame.htm

The link above is a repost. Put the wrong link up before.DUH!

That's it, thanks! :)

I'm pretty sure ms_scarletibis is right in it being "Never Just Friends" by Moxie. Here's the summary:

Summary: Buffy's an exchange student at an English university where Spike's doing a PhD. There's a knight in shining armour, a damsel in distress, a naughty leather top, some really bad driving, stockings, a major misunderstanding, poetry, some matchmaking, a romantic weekend (with more stockings and poetry), cosy country pubs, major angst and a big romantic finish. You need to read it really. Oh, and Xander and Willow are there too, along with crazy Dru.

I have it on my hard drive if you can't find it. Just let me know :)

That's actually the fic that prompted my search - I was looking through my favs list and saw the summary, then remembered this other one. smokey56 has found the one I was looking for.

Thanks, though! :)
