Have you ever heard the expression,'smiling ear from ear'? I always thought that expression was weird. Smiling ear to ear. Who can actually pull that one off? Well, at this moment, I definitely am. Or atleast coming close to it.

"So, can I have a name to put with my New Years kiss?" She asked over the loud music with her fingertips drawing light circles all over my back and to my sides, causing me to blush and giggle.

"Spencer," I bit my lip, trying to concentrate on not blushing.

"Hmmm.. Spence," She crinkled up her nose and looked up at the ceiling, as if pondering something. "I like it." Looking back into my eyes, she gave me the most gorgeous smile. "I'm ashley."

"Well, Ash, are you here with anyone?" The second those words came from my mouth, I felt a huge, strong hand on my arm, pulling me away from her. Oh god, it's her boyfriend coming to kill me. I winced all the way over to the dark corner.

"Spencer!" I opened one of my eyes, cautiously and saw a blurry image of my stupid best friend.

"Aiden!"I slapped him hard in his stupid muscley chest and looked back at Ash, apologetically. She just smiled and I knew we'd see each other again that night.

"I kissed a boy!" That sure got my attention.

"What?!"

"It.. It was New Years!" He closesd his eyes, flustered and confused. "He was giving me a lightshow. And.. I don't know. Ughh. All of a sudden everyone was counting down, then BAM! He planted one on me."

"Did you like it?" I tried keeping a straight face but couldn't help but bust into a fit of laughter when I saw the expression he gave me.

"What kind of question is that?!" He seemed truly outraged, so I apologized through my uncontrollable giggles. "But, you know.. It wasn't that bad."

"What?!"

"It was probably just the ecstasy." Of course he tried to play it off, but I know Aiden.

"Yeah, probably." I just gave him an all-knowing smile and he raised an eyebrow at me.

"So, who was that girl?" He said in a teasing, elementary school style.

"You mean the one you pulled me away from?"

"Sorry about that," He smiled sheepishly.

"Welllll, you aren't the only one who got a new Years kiss."

"Aww! You kissed her?"

"Yesss," I smiled, dreamily,replaying it in my head.

"I'd tap it."

"Excuse you!" I slapped him playfully and he stuck his tongue out at me. "Well, go find your loverboy, I gotta go use the restroom." I kissed his cheek and ran to the restroom before he had the chance to say anything in response.

After watiing, like, twenty minutes, I finally got a stall. And what happens? No toilet paper. That's the only bad thing about raves. I look around, desperately trying to find toilet paper. My eyes fix on a curtain. Hmm, maybe.. Eww, no, that's gross, Spencer. "Umm, excuse me, can you hand me some toilet paper?"

"Yeah, here you go." The sexiest voice ever replied. I know that sexy voice! I hurried up, anxious to see her, but not wanting to seem weird.

I quickly start washing my hands, my eyes fixed on her stall, which I could hardly see, due to all the girls packed in the tiny room. Finally, after washing my hands raw, her stall door opened. I averted my eyes, quickly.

"Hey! I'm glad I found you, Spence." I looked in the mirror and caught her eyes. My breath Taken away. I have a feeling that no matter how many times I see her, it'll still have this affect.

"Ash! Heeey." My smile matched her huge one.

"What're the odds, hundreds and hundreds of people and we keep meeting. It's a sign." My heart practically burst in my chest as soon as she said that. At theat moment, it was official: I had it bad. I giggled and bit my lip, a nervous habit I have.

"Looks like it," Ugh, say something else. Keep conversation. She's just staring at you. All sexy-like with her--"

"Well, like I said, I'm glad I found you before I left."

"Wait, what? You made that sound like you're leaving now.." The disappointment on my face was showing through the weak smile on my face. I could tell by the look she was giving me.

"Uhm, I am," She started off, hesitantly. "Me and my friend are going back to his ex's house. She's drunk and emotional that he's not there.

"Oh," Don't seem weird, you hardly know her. "Well, that's lame."

"I know..." Wait, she seems really disappointed, too?


We started out into the hallway and she held the door open for me, which caused me to smile again. So, here we are, in the hallway, just me, her and a random guy strung out in the corner. Just go for it, Spencer.

"Uhm.." I stared at my feet for a second, thinking of how to say it.

"Yeah?" I looked up, meeting her eyes . The most gorgeous girl ever was in front of me with a flirt smile on her face. With butterflies in my stomach and my heart pounding against my ribcage, I went for it.

"I know there isn't a countdown going on or anything, buuut.." With that I raised my eyebrow, smiled and waited.

"You're adorable," She chuckled and grabbed my hands, pulling me close to her and wrapped my arms around her. I lightly grabbed onto her shirt as she moved so that her lips were a mere inch from mine and whispered, "Is this what you meant?" The only response I could give was a slight nod and apparently, that's all she needed. Once again, her lips were on mine.Her fingers were running through my hair , her tongue was teasing mine, her hips were gently thrusting against mine and my hands were all over body. There is no doubt in my mind that I've never been more turned on in my life.

"Ashleeeey!" We heard a distant yell, obviously looking for her. A soft grunt escaped her mouth as we reluctantly pulled apart and as we did, she grabbed both of my hands and intertwined our fingers, I looked down at them and smiled.

"Well, cutie, I guess I have to go.." She smiled sadly at me and squeezed my hands.

"I guess so.. Have fun tonight. I better see you at the next rave." She crinkled her nose, which is already my favorite thing about her and she kissed me softly.

"You definitely will, I promise."

"Ash! There you are, come on! Madison won't stop yelling and crying." A scrawny, but tall, Pete Wentz-looking boy came up to us, practically gasping for air.

"Okay, okay, calm down and give me a second here."

"Okay, I'll be in the car. but hurry!" We watched as he huffed and puffed down the hallway. As soon as he was out of sight, we busted out laughing.

"Well, he sure is a character."

"You're telling me! She has him so whipped still, Hey, let me see your phone." I looked at her questioningly, but let go of one of her hands and got my cell out, handing it to her.

Oh, duh, she's giving me her number. "Anddd, here you go! I expect a text and/or call soon." She cheerfully stated and kissed me once more. And with that, she was gone, leaving me there, with a huge grin plastered on my face. I looked down at my phone and smiled even bigger whenever I saw what her name was in my phone: Ash3

After a few minutes of staring at her number, I decided I'd better go find Aiden. Dancing my way through people, I accidentally bumped into a boy. A very cute boy. "Hey, hottie, you here with anybody?" Wow, he gets straight to the point.

"Yeah, " I gave him a small smile. If I hadn't have met the most amazing girl ever tonight, I would've been all over him, he's gorgeous.

Continuing on my way to Aiden, I pulled out my cell phone and texted Ashley: "3"

MESSAGE SENT.
