It had been a week since Ashley had found Spencer. They were happy and ignoring all the issues that faced them when they decided to return to LA. They knew that they had to find a way to sort everything out but they also knew it wasn't going to be easy and right now, after all they had been through, they wanted something easy at the moment.
"I want to go back to LA." Spencer announced to Ashley, the sun shining through their motel room window and Spencer's hand drawing patterns on Ashley's bare stomach.
"I know. School started up again a few days ago." Ashley sighed.
"Since when do you care about school?" she laughed almost nervously. She knew that LA and school held Jamie, Ashley's crush while Spencer was 'dead'.
"I don't know, I just know that my mom is going to be home in a few days." Ashley shrugged and kissed Spencer when she looked up and gave her the puppy dog look that she loved.
So Spencer and Ashley made a plan to go back to Ashley's house for a few days while Christine was gone. They figured they had about three days to figure things out and no doubt the gay to straight camp would have informed Spencer's parents that she was missing by now.

A few days later, Spencer and Ashley were back in LA and taking full advantage of the sun. Spencer was glad to finally be able to get her bathing suit on and revel in both the guys and girls checking her out on the beach. She loved how protective and jealous Ashley got of them.
Ashley had secretly invited Jamie to meet them at the far end of the beach, the part that Spencer and Ashley used to frequent. Ashley thought that Spencer might be mad that she asked Jaime to meet them at their beach but she was pleasantly surprised when she welcomed Jamie with open arms.
Ashley went ahead of the two blondes to get ice creams for them. They walked slowly talking about random things and laughing at the events of the last few months however heartbreaking they were.
"Look Jamie, I am really glad you were there for her." Spencer said when their laughing had died down and Ashley was talking to the guy in the van.
"It's really not a problem Spencer. I would be lying if I didn't say I wasn't upset when I found out that you were alive and don't take that the wrong way, its just you know what Ashley is like."
"Yeah I do know and I really can't blame you for falling for her." Jamie blushed as Spencer took in her body language. "I don't have to keep an eye on you trying to take her from me do I?"
"Are you kidding?" Jamie laughed. "She is totally in love with you Spencer and I respect that so much." Spencer didn't have a chance to respond before Ashley got back with three dripping ice cream cones so she just smiled at Jamie.
"So what are you guys going to do about your parents?" Jamie asked.
"I think we should deal with Christine first." Spencer sighed. "At least that way we will now if we have anywhere to fall back on when my parents get pissed off."
They all agreed that that was probably the best thing for the couple to do. The three spent the rest of the day hanging out on the pier. They watched the sun set and when Jaime saw that Ashley's attention had moved from the amazing view in front of them, to the long legged blonde on the other side of her; she took it as her cue to leave.

They were woken the next morning by a high pitched bellow bouncing off the walls of the house. Christine was home and she had obviously seen all the clothes that had been abandoned in the hallway.
"Ashley Davies what the..." the door flew open and revealed a shocked looking Christine with her mouth hanging agape and her face totally pale.
Spencer covered herself with the sheet and blushed as Ashley appeared at her mothers side, scratching her head and yawning. Both Spencer and Christine were glad that Ashley had at least put a bra and panties on before she went wandering about the house.
"Mom, can you break down in a few please, I want to go back to sleep." Pushing past her mother, she pouted and crawled back in to bed with Spencer.
"Ash, it's your mom… didn't you have something you wanted to say to her?" Spencer nudged her girlfriend who was now led face down in to a pillow, her mouth open a little and her eyes closed.
"Not right now Spence, sleep." She mumbled and pulled Spencer in to her.
"Ashley Davies what do you think you are doing?"
"Sharing a bed with my girlfriend who you led me to believe was dead. Now if you don't mind, get lost."
"Don't you dare talk to me like that Ashley!"
"I think I can talk to you however I want to. You lied to me about the person that I care the most for." Ashley sat up and spat venomously.
"I thought I was doing right by you." She pleaded. Christine didn't have a good reason why she acted the way she did but in seeing the way Ashley reacted to Spencer's death made her know that what she did was stupid. She had risked losing her daughter forever and no matter how much she hid it, she really did care for Ashley.
Christine knew that she wasn't going to get anything through to her strong minded daughter at the moment and that no doubt Spencer would talk to her. She might not approve of her daughters relationship with the Carlin girl, or any girl for that matter, but she couldn't ignore that Spencer was good for her in the long run.
She sighed in defeat and addressed Spencer.
"I am sorry for agreeing with your mother in that stupid scheme we pulled. If you need to stay here, you can. There is a guest bedroom down the hall if you need your own space but I know you would probably rather stay with Ashley." Christine smiled weakly as Spencer nodded in appreciation and understanding.
As soon as she heard the door catch, Spencer lowered herself gently on top of Ashley who was still lying on her stomach. She kissed the nape of her neck and made a trail of kisses to her ear.
"You should forgive her babe." She whispered sending a tingle down her spine and straight to where Spencer's hand was heading. Spencer was still kissing her neck as her fingers worked, eliciting sweet, passionate moans from the sweaty brunette.
Ashley could get used to this and wanted to make sure that she never ever lost Spencer again.
Tomorrow the couple would tackle the problem of Spencer's parents. The problem didn't seem so daunting now that they had Christine on board but it still wouldn't be easy.
