"ARGH"

I practically fell through the door, dumping the armfull of boarding gear in the front hall. Ashley skipped in after me, placing the pair of gloves she was carrying on top of the pile. I turned to her and rolled my eyes.

"Wow, that was BEYOND helpful" I groaned.

"I know" she said with a cheeky smile.

"Girls? Is that you" my mom called from the kitchen.

"Yeeeees" we answered together.

We took off our boots, coats and sweaters. Ashley tossed off her snowpants and hung them to dry.

"Come on slowpoke" she urged.

I smirked at the thought that popped into my mind. I began taking off my snowpants in the slowest, most sexual way possible, the smirk never leaving my mouth. Once they were off i tossed them at Ashley, who was just staring, biting her lip.

"Spence! That's not fair!" she whispered, jumping up and down like an annoyed child.

I shrugged and headed off to the kitchen, putting a little extra sway in my hip. I heard a frustrated grunt from Ashley before she started following me, although she stayed behind to enjoy her view. This teasing continued as we entered the kitchen, complete with my childish giggling and Ashley's almost-temper tantrums.

"What's up with you two" my mother said, raising an eyebrow.

"Um, nothing Mrs. C....just an inside joke" Ashley said, regaining her composure.

"Yeah mom, it's a rommie thing" I added, grabbing waters for Ashley and I.

We had missed the usual family dinner and since we stopped for food on the way home, we didn't need to stick around to grab anything from the kitchen. We barely managed to get the door closed before the assault with hands and mouths began. We carefully got our connected bodies to my bed as the make-out session continued. Ashley rested on top of me, never breaking the kiss, and softly ran her fingers along my sides. My hands slowly wandered from their resting place on Ashley's hips, makign their way under Ashley's shirt. I drew a few circles and shapes accross her toned stomache before wandering further up towards her chest. I could feel Ashley smiling into my lips.

"Speeeence" she whispered.

"Yes?" I mumbled into her mouth.

"I...forget" she said, moving her mouth to suck on my neck.

The sound of footsteps coming up the stairs and down the hall broke us from our thoughts as well as separated our bodies. As the footsteps got closer we quickly fixed clothing and tamed hair. This whole seeing the family thing was nice, but it was seriously interrupting Spashley time. Glen opened the door, the phone pressed to his hand.

"Spenceer it's Adien. He said you weren't answering your cell" he said, chucking the phone at me.

"Geeze, THANKS Glen" I said sarcastically.

He shrugged and left my room, shutting the door behind him. I looked at the phone with an annoyed expression on my face, and then to an equally annoyed Ashley. I sighed and rested the phone to my ear.

"Hey Aiden"

Hey Spence, I was calling you all day but you never answered

"Yeah, I was boarding with Ashley, Chelsea and Carmen"

Oh, a little girls day out? How about we throw some testosterone into the mix, I'm not doing anything right now?

"Thanks...but no thanks, Ashley and I are really tired, maybe another time"

Well actually...I mean, I'm sure Ashley is great and all, but I meant some Aiden and Spencer time, if we don't get any of that how am I supposed to win you back?

"First of all, Ashley and I come as a pair, I don't just leave her. Secondly, I'm flattered Aiden but I'm not interested! In fact, I've meet someone special in LA...it's pretty serious"

Oh...well I bet this guy is great and all, but we have history, we were so in love when we were together

"I don't need to have history with someone to fall in love with them. In fact, what I have with this person is beyond love, I think I've found my forever"

*click*

So he hung up on me....well I guess I can't blame him, he professes his love and I shut him down. That little flicker of hope he had to win me back just got put out, now that there's someone else in the picture. My thoughts were interrupted by a hand intertwining with mine.

"I'm your forever?" Ashley asked, a shy smile on her face.

I nodded and looked down, a deep blush creeping up on my face. I've always known I wanted to spend the rest of my life with Ashley, but I never mentioned it to her.

"Good, because it'd be hard to have you as my forever if I wasn't yours" she said, kissing me softly.

When we broke apart I rested her face between my hands, stroking her cheeks with my fingertips. We sat there gazing into each other's eyes, lost in the moment. Then, almost as if on cue my mom walked through the door. Seriously? My family has the worst timing in the world.

"What'd Aiden have to say-Oh..what are you two doing" my mom said, looking at our intimate moment.

"Oh, well Mrs. C, it's this new thing in LA. It's like a massage but way softer, it's really relaxing" Ashley said as we pulled apart.

I was in love with a schemer, it was kinda hot to be honest.

"How interesting. So Spencer, Aiden called? What did that handsome young man have to say" she said happily.

"Nothing mom, he just wanted to see how Ashley and I were doing" I said cooly.

"Oh really? I thought he was going to try and start you two up again" my mom said with a frown.

With that she turned around and left. She has always been an Aiden fan, that boy was eerily good at winning over the parents.

"Your mom really likes Adien I see" said Ashley, a little disapointed.

"Maybe, but she likes you too. Plus I love you. And my love trumps my mother's approval anyday" I said proudly.
