Hello again dear readers! I'm happy to see that I'm still alive and/or not got burn marks around my wrists ;)
Here's chapter ten as promised, I hope you'll like it!

Thank you to MissMaclay and ChrissieWOW for being the exaequo 200th reviewers on here! (Seriously, they arrived at the exact same time...) And, of course, thank you all of guys for the 199 other reviews :) Glad you seem to be enjoying this as much as I like writing it! Cheers all :D

Disclaimer: Thanks to Nikki (NothinButLove4U) for her idea appearing in this chapter! Also, the girls aren't mine. But that doesn't matter, really, because I have a cat, and he keeps me warm in bed at night. Though Ashley would be nice too... - - trails off into the distance - -
Warning: I was kinda writing CR at the same time, so I don't know if I got mixed up between the two and get you all suddenly to read M rated stuff. Would you mind if I did? :D

Chapter 10 (Woo!!)

"So uh, what were you and Nessie talking about earlier?"

"Nothing much. Why?"

"Oh, no reason."

I raised an eyebrow at the brunette.

"Jealous, Ashley?"

"No, of course not! I was just wondering. And the way she put her arm around you and all. I just wanted to make sure you were okay."

I bit my lip and tried as hard as I could not to laugh. Or aww.

I failed. Earned myself a whack on the arm.

"Don't make fun of me!"

"Come on Ash, you couldn't have said that without thinking just how much I was going to taunt you about it."

"Yeah well… you taunt me, I'll tease you."

"In a way I'll like?"

"… Probably."

I shot her a grin worthy of a Colgate advert and she winked at me.

Aah, what I'm doing because of that bracelet. It's turned me from just a normal 'me' to a sex crazed Ashleysexual. Not that she and I have had sex or anything. Yet. Wait no, scratch the yet. I'm not thinking about that at all, since this is only for the weekend. Right?

Right. So now concentrate on dealing those cards, Carlin. Oh yes, because Daniel and Samantha had settled on us playing cards.

"Without clothes?" Ashley had asked.

"No."

"So what's the point?"

Oh, Ashley, Ashley, Ashley, Ashley…

"Okay then. For Ashley, the winner at all the card tables gets whatever he or she likes for the afternoon."

"Much better."

Following that discussion, four tables had been set up and each had a different card game played on it. The player had to defeat every player on his table to then go and compete against the winners from the other tables to get the prize. So of course, the games were lively. Aiden in particular was doing the best he could, much to everyone else's amusement as you could hear grunts of frustration and hissing "yesss"s with every up and down in his game.

I didn't mind playing cards all that much, though it seemed like it was starting to bore Ashley. She was getting jumpy, moaning about how nothing was happening fast enough. To be honest, she wasn't such a great player either.

"Ash? Maybe if you concentrated on the game you'd enjoy it more, plus you'd get a chance at getting what you'd like for the day."

"Oh but baby C, I already get what I want," she smirked, losing one of her best cards to Daniel.

I raised an eyebrow, distractedly pinching one of Daniel's good cards back, ignoring his scowl.

"Oh really? And how would you manage that?"

"Sweetie, it's easy. I'd start with you since it seems that most of the camp is smitten with you by now anyway, so you'd be a good strategic start."

I watched her lose another card, to Hannah's hand this time. So much for her strategy skills...

"Sure, but how would you get me?"

I managed to get back one of Hannah's cards, keeping the game at the same stage it was before.

"Well, that's the easiest bit."

She leaned in and for a second the whole game stopped. Pressing her lips to my ear, she nonchalantly let her hand drop on to my thigh.

"I just have to...play with you in the right places. And... I think... I know exactly where."

My heart is beating way too fast. It's going to thump its way out of my rib cage now, I'm sure.

The singer pulled back smugly, taking in my flushed and struggling face. I hoped she didn't notice as I squeezed my legs together, because then I'd never hear the end of that.

I stayed silent for a while, easily taking the lead of the game. My dad was a great card game player, as well as any kind of board game really. The hours he had played with my siblings and I had achieved in making me a pretty good player.

Ashley had long since abandoned her set on the table and was now ambling around the camp, butt joining in other people's games as she went. I tried not to pay too much attention to her as she walked around. In vain. But it didn't change much to my game and fast enough both Hannah and Daniel had to give up as I won.

I sat back and smiled at then, stretching as I did so. Feeling Hannah's eyes on me I rectified my position quickly, a little uncomfortable. That was just too weird...

Getting up to see how the other tables were doing I almost went to sit close to Ashley till I caught Dani's eyes on me. Yeah, maybe that'd be pushing the puppy love a little too far. But anyway, what was Dani doing hawking us like that? I was supposed to act gay this weekend, right? So, logically, sitting next to my other gay comrade was normal.

But I still settled with sitting next to Kyla anyway. I observed the game for a while, deducing that even though Kyla was a better player than her sister, it wasn't by much. Soon enough, she showed her empty hands and sighed, looking at me.

"Well, we all knew I wouldn't be the winner. Who won at your table, Spence?"

"I did," I grinned smugly.

She pushed me playfully, in a 'no-way!' sort of manner, before turning back to me with a more serious look.

"So, what do you think of the weekend so far?"

"It's alright, I haven't got round to talking to everyone yet."

"Don't worry, you'll get time later on."

"Later this weekend? Aren't we leaving tonight?" Or had I just yet again failed at understanding information thrown at me? (Ok, in my defence, Kyla had told me about the weekend through a mouthful of fries just as she ran out of the snack bar we had been in, but still. I was the brainy one in the family.)

"Well yeah, but you're definitely coming back on one of these, right?"

I stayed silent. Why wouldn't I come back? It had been fun, after all.

"Whatever, we're pulling you back here anyway. Everyone likes you."

"Really?"

They did? How come? I mean, I had spent most of my time being teased by Ashley.

"Well... you put on quite a show last night," she grinned at me.

"Don't think too hard about it baby C, it's called 'the lesbian factor'. Girls love us because they want to have a taste of liberty, men watch because... well actually, I don't know if it's because they get turned on or because they're trying to learn how to do it right."

Ashley plopped down between us, grinning widely.

"Jay won on the other table. So, why are you two talking about last night?"

"We weren't talking about last night per se, just mentioning it. I said everyone liked Spencer and we'd love to have her back."

"I really do agree. I'd love to have her back. Possibly her front, as well."

Kyla groaned at this as Ashley smirked and I silently contemplated the idea before severely blushing as I realised what I was doing.

"Oh come on Ky, stop being such a prude."

"I'm not being a prude! I just don't need to know about your sexual fantasies."

"You just won't admit lesbian sex is so much better."

"You have absolutely no way of backing that up," the brunette shot back at the smirking girl next to me. Oh ho, so this was a fiery subject of conversation between the two siblings then?

"Yeah, I do. When two girls fuck, one of them doesn't have to simulate orgasm."

"I've never had to do that!"

"I wasn't implying you had ever had to. But you instantly felt concerned, thus proving my point."

A triumphant Ashley faced me, turning her back to her fuming sister.

"Hey babe. I missed you."

"Hey. Uhm. Hi."

Oh, I do love sounding like an illiterate carp.

"But you know what? My tongue missed you even more."

She pulled my neck down, pressing our lips together. I let the heart attack sensation wash over me before pulling back as I felt her try to get, ah, closer.

I turned my head and blushed. First public kiss that wasn't a dare. The whole camp had seen. And I felt the need to squeeze my legs together again. This was going to be...complicated.

Ashley arched her eyebrow but said nothing as Aaron triumphantly showed his game to the rest of the table, resulting in a concerto of groans from Tom, Vanessa, Dani and Samantha as they had to give up the prize.

Only Aiden's table was left, and, to be honest, Aiden was playing it off quite well. He was facing Andrew, Jennifer and Peter and was truly slamming his cards on the table. It was quite funny, seeing this muscled basket-ball player getting frustrated over 52 small pieces of coloured card.

The rest of us sat back, watching the game every now and then but otherwise just talking amongst ourselves. Hannah somehow ended up to my right and she gave me a tentative smile.

"Hey."

"Hi Hannah. Good game, earlier. Where do you play? Some of those are real casino table techniques."

"Oh." She blushed. "I mostly learn from books. I've got this strategy book at home and I used to love flipping through it when I was younger."

As usual, Ashley decided she'd join the conversation.

"You're not boring baby C, are you sugar?"

"No she's not, we we're just talking about where she learnt some of the hand tours she used on me earlier," I explained.

"Oh? I can teach you some of those too..."

Hannah and I both blushed. Though I was glad to see that Hannah's hue was slightly deeper than mine. You know. It's always comforting to know that you're not the worse.

"We weren't talking about...those tricks, Ashley," she murmured.

"Mhh. Just stuff from a book she has."

"I was probably the most interesting thing she ever flipped through anyway. Spencer, did you know that Hannah always licks the tip of her finger before turning a page? And that she holds the book trapped between her index and pinkie and her middle finger and ring finger?"

I looked confused as Hannah quickly turned her head, looking the other way.

"Why is this important?"

"I'll tell you later. When I can show you. Right now, it looks like the ADHD kid is going to win."

"You mean Aiden?"

"Yeah, you've never seen him after a can of Red Bull."

"Do I want to?"

"It's a laugh in the first ten minutes, then it's like dealing with a five year old who's got a crave for chocolate."

"Oh..."

I had never tried that, but from the look on her face it probably wasn't an enjoyable experience.

I turned to have a look at the table, and indeed from where we were Aiden was clearly taking the lead. He looked like an overjoyed puppy. Approximately as comical as when he was slamming the cards down...

A few minutes later and Aiden was declared winner of his table. He jumped up, pumping his fist in the air and dancing some sort of dance that wouldn't even be worthy of Madison. He only calmed down (a little) when Dani moved behind him and flicked the back of his head, resulting in him rubbing his skull with a hurt look on his face.

Samantha stood up.

"So the winners from each table are Jay, Aaron, Spencer and Aiden."

"Oh great, we've got an equal number in boys and girls!" chirped Ashley, giving Aiden a sweet look.

It rolled off him as he was still high up after his victory, shooting a proud grin at Kyla.

"Spencer versus Jay, Aaron versus Aiden. Switch table so that it's a new game to both of you. Good luck."

She smiled and I settled down in front of Jay. As he dealed the cards I had a bad gut feeling. I was starting off with a bad hand of cards, and it was going to take a lot of luck to get it back level. Ten minutes later I was down, and Jay was proclaimed winner.

Ashley came over to give me a consoling kiss. Which worked quite well since my mind instantly forgot I had just lost. It also forgot everything else. But hey, life isn't perfect.

I watched the rest of the games distractedly and went to settle next to Andrew, slowly working my way round the group.

"Heya hun."

"Hey Andy, can I sit here?"

"Sure thing sweetie, you can even sit on my knees if you like."

I rolled my eyes good naturedly and sat next to him, showing his camera.

"So you work with Vanessa for the campus newspaper, right?"

"Yeah, as a photographer."

"I'd got that far," I grinned. "How come you know Ash then?"

"Oh, I had to do a shoot for her for one of the editions. She thought I was gay and decided we were going to stick together," he said, his eyes shining mirthfully.

"Just because she thought you were gay?"

"Yeah, I think Ashley just likes being surrounded by rainbows. Probably why you appeal to her so much."

I hesitated about answering to that but decided to ignore it. I wasn't going to lie, and I wasn't going to declare my Ashleysexuality just yet either.

"I didn't know you were gay."

"Oh, I'm not," he laughed. "Though I have nothing wrong with it. I just guess Ashley got her gaydar wrong."

"Seriously!?"

He nodded. Yet another flaw in the princess' gaydar. So did this mean mine really was better than hers? If so, I was going to make so much fun of her because of that…

"Why did you need to do shots of her for the paper anyway?"

"We had a survey on who were the hottest people at school, and it was no surprise when the hottest couple from the moment won."

"Hottest couple? So was Ashley with Dani or something?"

"What? Oh no, 'course not. Nah, it was Aiden and Ash back then. So I was asked to go and take shoots of them around the campus ground and they… Spencer are you alright?"

No.

"Aiden and Ash? As in Aiden the guy who's jiggling around over there because he's just won against Aaron?"

"Well… yeah. Do you know any others?"

Okay, that makes sense. I didn't know they'd gone out with each other. From the way Ashley and him interacted now, it certainly didn't look like they had ever been close. Close. Just how close had they been?

Wait, Carlin. That's none of your business. What Ashley did with her ex-boyfriends doesn't concern you.

"So uh, what happened?" I asked in what I hoped was a nonchalant manner.

"Oh. Madison had a fit and got all of the cheerleaders to tear out Ashley's face from their papers. And then she ran off with Aiden."

"…which girl has Aiden not gone out with?"

"…You? Unless you like him? Good luck with getting him out of Kyla's grip…"

I violently shook my head and the Asian boy grinned approvingly.

"How do you like the weekend with us? I remember my first weekend. It's a bit… startling. Being pushed into their world like this. You get used to it eventually."

"I've enjoyed it, I just regret not seeing more of you guys. Not that hanging out with Ashley annoys me in any way…"

"Yeah, I think we all saw that," he smirked.

I smiled weakly at him before a sudden roar interrupted our conversation.

"I WON!! I BEAT ALL OF YOU LOSERS!! I TOTALLY ROCK!!"

"Oh, perh-lease. Somebody shut him up before he starts to sing 'I'm the king of the castle'…"

Ashley, sitting with her back pressed against her tree, watched Aiden jump around with a look of utter pity and contempt on her face. Weird. I'd have to ask her about this ex-boyfriend business.

A few people got up to high-five Aiden before Daniel asked him what he wanted for the afternoon. I caught Aiden's eyes lingering on the keg of beer in the corner, followed by my legs till they finally settled on a slightly miffed Kyla.

"Uh, I want my girlfriend back for the afternoon."

"Granted!"

Aiden shot Kyla his best playboy grin before walking over to pick his prize up Hollywood style and carrying her out of the clearing, only glancing back to stick his tongue out at Tom. There was a silence once he had left, everyone a bit taken aback at him just leaving off with her like that. Well. No one would be heading that way for the afternoon then…

The silence lasted a few moments more till Ashley yawned loudly.

"Well, I'm bored. I suggest Aaron and Peter go join Aiden while Dani distracts Kyla and then the boys can have a threesome. Yes?"

"What!?" came the answer from two of the boys, as the rest of camp was overcome with laughter at their astonished faces.



Somewhere in the surrounding forest.

"What do you think they're laughing at?"

"Bah, Ashley probably did a pervy joke or something. Now, finish what you started. We only have the afternoon to have fun."

"Mhh…"

There you go!

For the next updates, I'm very busy at the moment, a lot of stuff to do. I've got some bits and pieces and I really do hope I'll be able to get them together in time for you guys. Feel free to give me a kick up the arse every now and then when I need it :) - -glances at Starfrosted and -X-It's-Only-Life-X- ;) - -

Also, the end of the 1st weekend is getting closer and closer! Are you guys still hot for a sequel? Still open for ideas!

All reviews answered, as usual :)
