Chapter Four

Ashley waved quickly to Spencer before rushing off to her room after the last bell rang for the day. She knew she had to look spectacular even though this was only a "tutoring session." She hoped that Spencer would be as willing as her to blow off the actual studying but she wasn't really sure. The blonde had been flirting with her all day long and even sat with her at lunch much to the disgust of Madison. The Latina still kept hitting on Ashley every chance she could and Ashley was getting tired of it.

She found another short skirt which accentuated her legs and a small shirt that showed off her tight abs. 'If Spencer doesn't jump me in this outfit then you definitely lost your mojo girl.' Ashley said to herself before heading to the gym.

Ashley entered the gym and took a seat on the bleachers. She watched as Madison instructed the other cheerleaders on what she assumed was a cheer formation. Spencer looked over at the brunette and smiled. Ashley smiled back and sat back to enjoy the show.

Even though the constant cheering would have normally given her a huge headache, Ashley stayed during the entire practice watching her girl move. The girls gathered again after the practice ended and then quickly dispersed for their other activities. Madison wrapped her arms around Spencer and kissed the blonde on the neck. Ashley narrowed her eyes at the way Madison touched Spencer and crossed her arms. 'Damn it let her go.'

Spencer pulled herself out of Madison's arms and headed over towards Ashley. "Hey there." She said smiling at the brunette.

"Hiya. So did practice go well?"

"It was alright…Madison was kind of in a mood the whole time."

'Isn't she pretty much always in a mood?' Ashley thought as she saw the Latina head to the locker rooms. "I bet she was."

"So you still want to do the tutoring today?" Spencer said pulling out a towel and drying the sweat off of her body.

'Mmm…look at how soft her skin is…' Ashley was distracted and realized she had just been asked a question. "Huh?...oh yeah…need to develop those study skills I hear people go on and on about."

"Great…well I need to hit the showers but meet me in my room in like 30 minutes." Spencer said standing and heading down to the locker rooms.

'Need a hand?' Ashley thought as she saw Spencer walk away. Ashley went back to her room and gathered her books together. She sat and waited until 30 minutes had passed. She put all her things in a backpack and headed out the door to the blonde's room. She traced the blonde's name plate and took a deep breath. She raised her hand and knocked.

The door swung open to a disgruntled looking Madison who was only in her cheerleading shorts and a bra. She looked at Ashley and began to smile. Ashley looked past the Latina to see Spencer who was also only in her bra and cheerleading shorts.

"I'm sorry did I interrupt something?" Ashley said never taking her eyes off of Spencer. 'Please God don't let this be what I think it is.'

"You could always join us." Madison said as she leaned against the doorway.

"Madison!" Spencer yelled giving the Latina a stern glare. She threw the Latina her t-shirt and put on her own. She refused to meet the brunette's eyes and started to look for her textbooks.

"Well I guess that's my cue to split…have fun studying." Madison said gathering her things and heading out. She intentionally brushed her body against Ashley's as she passed the brunette.

'EWWW!' Ashley thought shaking her body trying to get Madison's touch off of her. She looked back inside the room and saw Spencer sitting on her bed looking at nothing. "Should I come back later?" Ashley said as she watched the blonde.

"No don't be silly. Come in." Spencer said turning and giving Ashley a genuine smile.

"Look if I had known Madison was going to be here I would have suggested we get together tomorrow or something." Ashley said taking a seat next to Spencer on her bed. 'Or I would have locked Madison in a closet to make sure she never made it here.'

"Well she walked me to my room and…" Spencer cleared her throat and looked away.

'And what? And what!?!' Ashley screamed inside her head. She had suspicions about what the girls had been up to but she refused to believe them. 'Why is Spencer with that girl? Calm down Ash….just breathe.' Ashley started to take deep breaths to get herself to relax.

"So…" Ashley started trying to break the awkward silence that had fallen over the two.

"How 'bout we start on Algebra first…" Spencer said grabbing her algebra textbook.

Ashley watched as Spencer opened her notebook and began to work the problems. "Yeah…algebra…let's get to that." Ashley opened her book and stared at the formulas in front of her. 'Come on say something.'

"I think you should work out the problems first and if you have any trouble mark the question and we can go over them."

"Ok…" Ashley started to work out the problems and found herself marking nearly every question. 'Shit…this stuff is hard…see this is why I never went to school it's too much damn work.'

After 20 minutes, both girls had worked their way through all the problems. Spencer looked over at Ashley's work and frowned slightly. "I guess we have our work cut out for us huh?" She said softly to the brunette.

"I told you I wasn't a brain."

"Well is it the formulas you aren't getting or are you just distracted?"

'Definitely distracted.' Ashley thought watching as the blonde chewed on the end of her pencil. "I don't know…I guess I just don't have the proper motivation to remember these formulas."

"What kind of motivation do you need?" Spencer said glancing sideways at the brunette.

"Hmmm…let me see." Ashley started to smile. 'You naked covered in baby oil begging for me to take you.' "I don't know…what do you suggest?" 'Say baby oil…baby oil damn it!'

"Well what interests you…" Spencer said turning her body towards Ashley.

"Music…girls…" Ashley replied after a few moments of thinking.

"Ok…I'm not sure I can work with the music part but how bout this…I have the perfect plan to keep you focused."

"Really?"

Spencer blushed and smiled at the brunette. "How bout when you get the problem correct you get to ask me to do a truth or a dare."

'Sweet! Act cool Davies…' Ashley thought for a moment and nodded her head. "You know I think that might actually work."

"Ok well let's see then. Here try these again." Spencer handed back Ashley's notebook. "Let me know when you finish."

"Sure thing." Ashley stared back down at the problems and frowned. 'Come on Davies…think…you can do this…' After a few encouraging words from her inner voice Ashley began to work through each problem until she was satisfied that she had them all correct. "Done." Ashley announced proudly.

Spencer looked up from her book and started to look over Ashley's work again. Ashley's heart pounded when she saw Spencer put a small "X" next to a couple of problems.

"So…how did I do?" Ashley said looking nervously at the blonde.

"You did so much better. Well looks like you have almost all of the problems right except for these two but those were tricky. Ok so that's a total of 13 correct answers."

'ALRIGHT!' Ashley started to think of all the things she could ask the blonde to talk about or do. "Ok so I can ask anything right?"

Spencer nodded and sat back against the wall next to her bed. She watched as Ashley began to smile widely at her. She was starting to slightly regret her plan but she took a deep breath and waited for the brunette to speak.

"Hmm…so you are from Ohio?" Ashley started. 'Start with the easy questions…'

"Yes…we moved to San Diego when I was younger. My mom enrolled me here when I was old enough to start school."

"Do you have any brothers or sisters?"

"Two older brothers…Glen and Clay."

'Ask the good stuff already…shut up brain!' Ashley was having a slight battle with her own mind. "So when did you know you were gay?"

"I don't know…I think about 7th Grade I noticed that I was starting to have feelings for other girls. And when we had dances with the boy's school I really didn't much care to bother with them."

"Fair enough. Let's see…ok here's a good one…what the hell are you doing with Madison?"

Spencer laughed and shook her head. "I knew this one was coming…umm…Mads and I well…I guess you could say it was a coupling out of convenience…does that sound weird?"

"So you are using each other?" Ashley asked raising an eyebrow. 'You still have a chance here Davies!'

"I wouldn't put it that way…." Spencer said looking into Ashley's eyes. "She just was always there for me so we just kind of just came together."

'Ask it NOW!' Ashley cleared her throat. "So have you and Madison…you know…"

"Had sex?" Spencer asked finishing Ashley's thought. Ashley nodded and held her breath waiting for the blonde's response. "No…I mean we've gotten very close but I don't know…it just never felt right."

"No wonder she's so grumpy." Ashley said smiling. "I mean not being able to sleep with her hot girlfriend must be agonizing."

"Yeah I guess…you think I'm hot?" Spencer said looking at the brunette.

"Hell yeah." Ashley said winking at the blonde.

"So you asked me a lot of questions…there's nothing you wanted to maybe dare me to do?" Spencer said raising her eyebrow suggestively.

'HELLO EARTH TO DAVIES! She just opened the door…go…now…or I'll come out there and beat you down.' Ashley smiled widely at the blonde. "Ok…since you insist…I dare you…to take me right here." Ashley said throwing herself back onto the bed and closing her eyes.

Spencer laughed and shook her head at the brunette. "How bout we start with something slower?"

"Ok ok…I dare you to kiss me…here." Ashley pointed to her cheek. Spencer leaned forward and kissed Ashley softly on her cheek. "Now here." Spencer kissed Ashley's nose. "Now here." Spencer smiled and kissed Ashley softly on the mouth. She pulled back from the brunette and saw that Ashley's eyes were still closed.

"Ok you got 3 left…" Spencer said leaning back against the wall again.

"You mean you have actually been counting?" Ashley asked in disbelief. "Fine…I have 2 more questions and a dare for you."

"Ok." Spencer said winking at the brunette.

"First question…do you think I'm sexy and do you want my body?" Ashley said laughing.

"That was two questions and yes I think you're sexy and I definitely want your body."

'It's getting hot in here Davies…' Ashley took her time before she continued with her last dare. "I dare you…to…break up with Madison and be my girlfriend." Ashley said quickly never taking her eyes off of Spencer.

"That was two dares…you only had one left. So which is it?"

"Spence come on. I'm serious now…I want you to be with me…be my girlfriend. I know I can be a much better girlfriend than Madison…I mean she's like a walking hormone."

"Are you serious? Do you really want me to be your girlfriend?" Spencer said leaning forward and looking deep into Ashley's eyes.

'Say it stupid!' Ashley nodded her head. "Yes…I really do."

Spencer smiled and kissed Ashley softly on her lips. She pulled back and smiled at the brunette. "Ok…but I need to break it off with Madison slowly…and hopefully she doesn't kill us both." She said smiling at Ashley.

"Don't worry your Ash will kick the living snot out of the girl if she tries anything funny."

"That was a horrible image. Can you just imagine snot going everywhere? Gross."

Ashley smiled at the blonde and pulled her in for a hug. 'Ok Davies…now that you've got the girl remember not to fuck it up…god shut up you stupid brain!'
