A/N: Hello again...I thought I would be away longer, but ideas have been running around in my head for a sequel to Addiction. Please let me know if you all are interested in this...if yes, awesome...if no, no problem...I can move on to something a little different. At any rate, this is a little teaser/intro for you all. Very short, indeed, but something to see how many takers may be out there. If you haven't read Addiction, you may find yourself a little bit lost here and there! So head over and check it out if you need to! I'm off the California, AGAIN, so I'll be back the middle of next week. Have a great weekend!!

Disclaimer: This is it...from here forward...i own nothing but the idea. Everything else is Mr. Lynch's. :)

"Five minutes Ms. Davies!!" the stage hand yelled.

Ashley stood from the comfortable couch in her dressing room and started making her way out the door and through the maze-like hallways backstage.

"We have the lights positioned a little different tonight so you won't be blinded like last night. I have 2 bottle of Fiji water next to the stool sitting center stage. The set-list will be flashing on the low monitor for you to review throughout the show, you know, just in case you forget the song order. Everything else is up to you."

Ashley smiled and nodded at her assistant. Ember had taken great care of Ashley since being hired and she couldn't imagine getting through some of these shows without her.

"Thanks Em, I don't know what I'd do without you sometimes." Ember just smiled.

Finally reaching the velvet curtain, Ash took her place and waited for her name to be announced, and for her entrance to center stage.

"Oh one more thing Ashley, Spencer claimed her ticket tonight…so she's here to see you. I will make sure she's brought backstage as soon as the show ends."

"Thanks Em…call and order some Chinese for us as well, will you? I want to make tonight as special for her as I can."

Ember smiled knowingly, and nodded enthusiastically, "You got it Ash!"

"Everybody stand up, put your hands together, and welcome to the Staples Center for the second night in a row…Ashley Davies!!"

Ashley stepped to her right and settled on the conveyor belt as it took her out to center stage. The belt gave the appearance that she was gliding on air as she was transported through the fog on-stage. The arena was packed, but her thoughts lay only with the blonde beauty she knew she would soon enough see.

Coming to a halt, Ashley bowed her head to say a little prayer for her nerves to be calmed, before raising her eyes to the crowd at the precise moment the lights shone down on her. Anyone could see she looked nothing short of angelic in the soft white light and fog.

"What's up LA?!" Ashley shouted into the microphone!

The crowd stood to their feet, screaming loud and proud for the girl who stood alone on the big stage.

"Thank you guys so much for allowing me to play another night here in my wonderful home town. I cannot imagine closing my first American Tour any other way!"

After the noise settled down, Ashley took a seat on the stool she had become accustomed to sitting on for the past 4 months, and started strumming her favorite guitar.

90 minutes later, she was wiping sweat from her brow and heading back to her dressing room.

"Ashley! I informed security that Spencer should be allowed backstage, they are escorting her back now."

"Thanks Em, I'm going to take a quick shower, so if you'll show her in and have the food brought back, I would be in debt to you for life."

"Please Ashley, you're already in debt with me, but you know she'll be cared for until you're done."

Ashley smiled at her assistant, shaking her head.

"Now hurry up, rock star, your princess awaits."

Ashley hurried into her dressing room and quickly hopped in the shower, relishing in the feel of the warm water washing the sweat away. She finished quicker than she began and dried off before throwing on a pair of track pants and a black tank top. She towel dried her hair before quickly throwing it up in a messy ponytail and then settled her black rimmed glasses into place.

"All the better to see you with," she mumbled while putting on her glasses.

She opened the bathroom door and leaned against the frame to admire the back of the blonde's head that was resting on her couch. She smiled to herself before stepping forward to make her presence known.

"Hey Spencer," she whispered out, before being met with the blue eyes she's always loved.

Signature head tilt and grin in place, Spencer admired the sight in front of her before standing and pulling the brunette into a warm embrace.

"Hey you," the blonde responded, pulling back from the embrace.

"The concert was amazing, as always. I'm so glad I was able to come."

"Me too. I've missed you."

Spencer shyly smiled, before pulling Ashley over to the couch by her hand.

"Where's Katelyn?"

"She's with my dad tonight, Ash. I didn't think I should bring a 2 year old to a rock concert. What kind of mother would that make me?"

Ashley nodded in agreement before taking a moment to really look at the blonde in front of her.

"You're still as beautiful as ever, Spencer," Ashley whispered.

"And you still take my breath away," Spencer responded with a small smile.

"Let's eat okay, we have all the time in the world, and a lot to catch up on," Ashley offered, pulling the food from the bag and handing a small box of rice to Spencer.

"Sounds perfect, Ash. I've been dying to see you since the moment you called. I never thought that day would come."

Ashley offered a shy smile before picking up her chopsticks and beginning her meal.

2 years, and the feelings have never ceased, Ashley thought, maybe it's time we both put some things behind us and see if our lives are ready to fit together again.
