Once In A Blue Moon

Sequel to Anything But Ordinary

Spencer POV

Intro

College was pretty rough for Ashley and I. We fought a lot. We actually broke up several times but stilled lived under the same roof just different bedrooms. Our longest breakup lasted six months. It was the worst time of my life.

Ashley actually dated another girl during that time. I think her name was Toni. She was nice enough I guess, but I hated her guts. I was so jealous, I was seeing red. I would make myself scarce when she was around. I was just glad our apartment was big enough and had two bedrooms. I did find out later that they never did sleep together.

After I caught them making out on the couch one afternoon, when I got home from my classes. I decided I had to get Ash back at any cost. She was my soul mate, my everything. That only comes around once in a blue moon. I came up with a plan that would land me the girl. I had to test the waters first and make sure that she still loves me like I love her. I need to find a date.

I called my friend Billy and told her what I was planning. She said she would help me out. Billy has been my best friend for the last three years of college. We met in English Comp I. Ashley has always been jealous of Billy and I's relationship. No matter how many times I explained to her that I didn't have feeling for her. So I knew Billy would be the best choice for the job.

Ashley would be out of the apartment today until 2pm, so Billy and I set everything up. Operation Get Ashley back has begun.

At 2:05pm I heard the door knob turn indicating Ashley as arrived home. I was sitting facing the door so I could see Ashley's reaction to the kiss. As soon as the door opened I pulled Billy into a heated kiss. I felt her arms wrap around my waist, but all I could see was the hurt in her eyes watching me.

She closed the door and went straight to her room. I swear I saw a tear running down her cheek. I know I had tears in my eyes after she left. I knew it! She still loved me. I have a chance if I didn't just blow it with that little stunt. I realized that Billy was still kissing me. She had worked her way down to my neck. I pushed her off of me and told her to stop. She looked a little upset for a moment but then it was gone. I guess she really did have a crush on me. She told me she was sorry and then she left.

I sat on the couch for a good thirty minutes thinking about what my next step should be. I was debating on either ignoring her or walking straight into her bedroom and kissing her like there is no tomorrow. I stood up. I had made my decision I was gonna walk right...

My train of thought was cut off by Ashley's door opening up. I just stood there and watched her walk out of her room towards me. I could tell she had been crying. Her eyes where puffy and red. Then she started to talk.

"So you and Billy hun?" I just stared at her for a moment wondering how I should answer that question. I mean should I lie just to keep up the faux. To see if she would come to me, or should I just tell her the truth. I took a deep breath and decided.

"No" I told the truth.

"No? Then why where you two kissing?"

"I wanted to make you jealous. I wanted to know if you still felt the same way about me. I... I... miss..." Ashley cut me off.

"I miss you too Spence" She leaned in to kiss me, but I pulled back.

"What about Toni?"

She smiled "I broke it off with her this morning."

"Why?"

"She wasn't you. You're my soul mate. You're my everything Spence. Without you I'm nothing. Do you know how long something like that comes around."

"Once in a blue moon" we both said at the same time.

We came together in a earth shattering kiss. I am pretty sure they felt a quake in China. Our tongues battled with each other. I have missed these lips on mine for so long. They are where they belong kissing me. We pulled back from each and just smiled. It seemed like all was right in the world for the moment. We where both panting, but I needed to taste her lips again. I grabbed the back of her neck pulling her into me for another kiss. This one was slow. It was about remembering the old and learning the new. I never want to miss kissing her again.

"I never stopped loving you Spence. Never"

"Me either Ash. I love you too."

I can't wait to see where our life leads us next.
