SoNFANFOREVER: haha ok well I want you to know I love u too! Your reviews are wonderful. I'm so glad that this story was able to lift your mood. Thank you very much for staying with me!
Coachkimm: Thanks for the review, the twist will develop further soon!
thefrick: I toyed with the idea of having Ashley be engaged to Glen but poor Spencer has been through so much already.
Ashley had to take her drunken step sister and drunken friend home. So now I sit alone in our dark apartment thinking about what happened tonight.
"Hey Spence, you ok babe?"
I smile at Becky but feel tears streaming down my face once again. But I'm not sad, I'm not depressed so why are the tears here?
"Oh Spencer, I know this must be so confusing to you but I promise its ok for this to happen."
I sniff and wipe the tears away from my eyes.
"For what to happen?"
She looks at me like a mother looks at a child when explaining that Santa doesn't actually exist.
"For you to find someone else, even for you to fall in love again."
I smile through, what I have concluded are happy, tears at my best friend.
"Thank you Becks."
"Hey it's what I'm here for. So you ok with Kyla and Glen getting married? You do realize then that you're kinda dating your future sister-in-law?"
I roll my eyes at her questions.
"Truthfully I haven't really thought about it yet, but thank you for bringing it up again."
I scowl playfully at her. Oh, oh, Be my baby Ohhhhh Oh, oh Be my baby I'll look after you. At the sound of a phone going off Becky and I quiet down. But I know it's not her phone and I don't think its mine. Becky tosses me my phone. I guess it is mine.
"Hello?"
Where did I get this ringtone and who would be calling me this late?
"Hey gorgeous."
I smile as her raspy voice invades my senses. Becky rolls her eyes at me when she spots the shit eating grin on my face. She mouths she's going to bed and I just nod, too entranced by the girl I'm on the phone with.
"Why are you calling crazy? You were just here."
I actually don't mind that she is calling, I love her voice.
"I missed you."
I can hear the pout in her voice and can only imagine her adorable face.
"I missed you too but don't you have to work early, so shouldn't you go to bed?"
She groans into the phone.
"Wow thanks Spence. Well the sooner I get to bed the sooner I'll be doing dirty things to you in my dreams."
I gasp at her comments and can feel my cheeks burning. She starts laughing and I think it's the most wonderful sound in the world.
"I'm kidding Spence, kind of. Goodnight!"
She doesn't even wait for my reply, maybe she knows I'm incapable of forming one right now. I smile as I hang up the phone, wondering to myself how I got this lucky.
The feeling of someone watching me rouses me from my sleep. I stifle a yawn and grab my glasses.
"W-what, w-whose t-there?"
Ugh I can't think this early in the morning. A sweet kiss lands on my cheek and her scent surrounds me. I don't even know how to describe what she smells like. My best guess would have to be vanilla but it's just so much more than that.
"G'morning sleepy head."
I smile up at her through my sleep induced fog. She's so beautiful.
"Whatya doin here?"
She gives me a nose crinkling smile and I feel myself swooning all over again.
"I wanted to bring you breakfast in bed."
She pulls two coffees and some donuts from behind her. Wait isn't she supposed to be at work? I prop myself up on my elbows and tilt my head at her.
"Aren't you supposed to be working right now?"
A devilish smirk plants itself on her face.
"Oh you didn't know? I'm sick."
She winks at me and I just roll my eyes at her.
"You're crazy."
"You are so totally right."
She giggles at my confused face and mouth full of donut.
"I'm completely and utterly crazy…about you."
I swallow down the donut and grin up at her. We sit and stare at each other for a moment longer before I state something I should have noticed a long time ago.
"You know I've known you a couple weeks now and I barely know anything about you."
She flops down all the way on the bed and burrows under the covers next to me.
"Ok well what do you want to know? Ask away."
She scoots even closer, draping her arm over my waist and trailing a pattern up and down my back. Her actions cause a lazy smile to spread across my face and my eyes start to droop.
"Mmm I forgot what I was saying."
She smiles softly at me and halts her hand's movements.
"We were going to play 20 questions or something like it."
I blink back my haze and shake my head. She does things to me I can't really describe.
"Right ok let's start." She gazes at me with a smile, awaiting my questions, "Ok favorite color, birthday, school, relationships, and favorite food. To start with anyway."
She raises her eyebrows and I can tell she wasn't expecting them all at once. She brushes some hair out of her face and takes a deep breath.
"Blue, May 22, I don't go to school but if I did I would be a senior this year, I've had two serious relationships both ended badly, and cake."
It takes me a minute to process all her answers.
"Wow. Ok."
She chuckles softly.
"My turn Spence. I guess same questions to you."
I stare into her eyes and feel my stomach clinch.
"Golden brown, June 19, I'm a junior this fall at University of Illinois Chicago, one serious relationship, and peanut butter."
"Hmm why golden brown?"
The twinkle in her eyes tells me she knows why I picked that color. I blush and bury my head in my pillow.
"It's the color of your eyes."
I'll be surprised if she can understand the mumbled words coming out of my mouth.
"What Spence? Come on tell me for real."
She's whining at me and it causes me to grin into the pillow. I shake my head no and immediately feel her poking my side. I yelp with surprise and pull my face out of the pillow. As soon as my head comes up I'm met by her lips on mine. It takes me a minute to recover but when I do I start kissing her back. It's slow and goes no further then her just pressing her lips to mine but it's intense and full of heat. I pull back first sucking in air through my parted lips as she continues to lay soft kisses all over my face. I feel her stop so I open my eyes and see her gauging me for some sort of reaction. It's adorable really, her face is slightly flushed and she's gnawing nervously on her bottom lip. I smile at her and give her a quick kiss on the lips.
"Oh good I thought maybe it was too soon but I couldn't help myself you were just too cute and I just had to kiss you."
I laugh at her and pull her down next to me on the bed. She wraps her arms around my body and lays her head on my shoulder, her legs tangled in mine. I start running my fingers through her hair and feel her whole body relax.
"Oh you like that?"
The only response I get is a grunt. I smile down at the girl clinging to me and hope this lasts because it's the first time I've felt whole in a very long time.
I don't know when we feel asleep but it's been awhile. I groan when I feel her laying almost on top of me again.
"Ash. Ashley wake up."
I give a light push but she doesn't budge.
"Hey Spence I've brought…oooooh."
Becky bursting through my door causes Ashley and me both to jump off the bed.
"Hey Becky."
Ashley gives a sheepish smile and tries to fix her very tousled hair.
"Uh huh. Well I'll be in my room. Come find me later Spence."
Becky gives me a wink, causes me cheeks to burn red and leaves my room.
"UGH."
I flop back on my bed throwing my arm over my eyes. I feel the bed dip beside me and my whole body reacts from her being this close.
"Hey I have to go but I'll call you later ok?"
She lifts my arm off my face and kisses my forehead.
"K. I guess I'll go talk to Becky."
She laughs lightly and helps me off the bed. As I'm walking to Becky's room Ashley slaps my ass, causing me to gasp.
"Mmm sorry. I guess you're the one who's irresistible."
She winks at me and exits my apartment. I knock on Becky's door and give a disgusted look when she answers all bouncy and perky.
"So Spencer. What the deuce was that?"
"Nothing Becky she came over with breakfast and then we fell asleep that's all."
She looks at me unconvinced.
"Seriously Spence. I know there's more and you're really gonna hold out on your best friend?"
She raises her eyebrows and crosses her arms. Standing right in front of me showing that she's not going to give in.
"Fine. Goddamnit. We've kissed a couple of times."
Becky lights up like a Christmas tree at this news.
"Oooo details woman, now!"
"Becks there are no details. Just kisses, I'm not ready for anything else yet."
"You said yet."
I look at her smirk and want to slap it off her face.
"So what?"
"It means someday you will be ready and you'll let it happen. She must be a patient woman if she's going to wait to do anything."
I roll my eyes and start walking out.
"This talk is over."
I hear her call to me from her room.
"Let me know once you guys have fucked!"
I shake my head and grab my cell phone. Looks like I'll be spending the night waiting for a certain phone call. My how things have started to change.
Sorry that took a little bit longer then expected. I've been doing holiday stuff. Thanks for reviewing and adding this story. Keep it up please!
