Best friends. Almost more. Spencer and Ashley are walking the campus of King High chatting about the events of English class. Nothing huge.
Ashley begins to study Spencer's features, her hair, her eyes, her nose… her lips. The way her lips moved when she spoke or laughed or smiled. She had chosen the perfect lip gloss… clear… perfect for…
"Ash?" Spencer gazed into Ashley's attentive eyes. "Hello? Earth to Ashley… Ashley!"
"Wha—huh? Oh sorry," Ashley blushed, wait Ashley blushed? "I was just thinking." Ashley then thought to herself, 'What the hell! Did you just blush!? Did she notice it was her I was thinking about? Stupid… but she's so beautiful'.
"About…?" Spencer questioned thinking, 'I hope she says me. Please let it be me. Right… keep dreaming Carlin. She's way out of your league.
Ashley panicked and lied, of course, "Just this new song I'm writing. What rhymes with ridiculous?"
Spencer didn't buy it and smartly replied, "Conspicuous."
They walked to Ashley's car and rode to the Davies' mansion in silence. The Veronicas blasting on the radio. As they pulled up and got out of the car Ashley opened the front door and allowed Spencer to walk in first. Still in silence, they make their way to Ashley's bedroom and turn on the stereo. The soft sounds of Ingrid Michaelson soon fill the room.
Spencer looks at Ashley sprawled out across her bed on her back with her eyes closed. A sudden urge tugs at her guts. She has a strange need to crawl on top of Ashley and lay down across her body. 'Are you insane Spencer? She's your best FRIEND not your GIRLFRIEND! Can I resist this feeling though? Yes. No. Yes… No.
Ashley lies there with her eyes closed thinking, 'What if I just got up and kissed her? Would she kiss me back? Why do I care? I'm Ashley freakin' Davies. I get what I want when I want it… She's special. That's why. Just lay here. Wait for her. She's worth it.
Spencer slowly walks to the foot of Ashley's bed and stands there for a few seconds before beginning her climb onto Ashley. By now Lindsey Harper's All Over You is playing. Slowly she climbs all the way until their faces are inches away from each other.
Ashley opens her eyes and her gaze is met by those blue pools that make her melt. She doesn't breathe. Doesn't speak. Just stares. Content. A smirk forms on her face as she moves a hand up to tuck Spencer's hair behind her ear.
Not being fast or persistent at all, keeping a slow steady pace, Spencer closes the gap between their mouths. The shivers that run through her body are indescribable. The kiss wasn't 'hot', it was soft, sensual, and sexy. It felt like euphoria to the both of them. Finally, they pull away at the same time.
"Wow," Spencer breathed.
Ashley was speechless. She merely nodded. 'No words could describe what she felt. Wow and so much more. Wow…
"Spence?" Ash asked as she noticed Spencer's eyes divert from her own. "Look at me please?"
The blonde turned her gaze back to the brown eyes she dreamed about. They were darker than they had been. Deeper. Sexier.
"Spence, is this what you wanted? I mean I know you kissed me but is th—" Ashley was silenced by Spencer's mouth on her's. More passionate this time. Still not escalating to a level of lovemaking. But definitely more passionate. Lasting longer than the last kiss.
Spencer pulled away this time and whispered straight into Ashley's ear, "I've never been so sure. You make me feel beautiful."
The whispers drove Ashley crazy. Without thinking, she moaned lightly and dug her nails slightly into Spencer's back.
Spencer developed a smug look and her face was now hovering over Ashley's again. 'Did I just make Ashley Davies moan? By whispering to her? Yes, I did. Damn. That's hot.
"Ash… you okay?" Spencer smirked, tracing Ashley's lips with her finger.
Ashley could not let Spencer be the one in charge here. Now that the barriers are down and everything is a go… it's time for Ashley to be Ashley. In one swift motion, Ashley rolled over on top of Spencer.
A shocked gasp escaped from Spencer's mouth.
"What Spence? Did I hurt you?" Spencer shook her head. "Good, did I arouse you?" Spencer nodded. "What do you want?"
"You." Is all Spencer could manage to say.
Ashley asked, "Do you want to? Even though this was our first kiss? I don't want you to think this is what our relationship will be if we do. I need you to know before we take this step."
Contemplative, Spencer thought everything through in her head. This was her new 'first time.' Was this really special enough? Ashley would wait. She would make it special.
"Not yet. I want to. Bad. But… I want it to be really REALLY special. This is the… new 'first time' I want," Spencer managed to pull out of her nervousness.
Ashley smiles, "Good. I was just thinking the same thing. Let's just lay here for now."
