CH.10- First Time For Everything
Falling in love may one of the greatest feelings ever. There is an actual chemical process that happens to a person who is falling in love. All of the senses have a greater intensity. Colors seem brighter, sounds more resonant and smells more powerful when you are in love. When you are with your lover there is no greater feeling in the world, and when you're not you spend all your time thinking of each other. Falling in love is truly an awesome feeling. Now i'm not saying I have fallen in love. What i'm saying is that I am falling for someone. I was hoping to fall for someone...I just didn't expect it to be Ashley Davies. Falling for her and feeling for her in more than just a sexual attraction. Falling for her because she sang one simple song, all about us, without there even being an us. I guess when you don't know what to say...let music speak.
I leaned over to my left and whispered into Ashley's ear. "That was amazing."
"Thank you." Ashley turned her head and smiled at me. I leaned back in and whispered one more thing that will only be said once... maybe twice.
"I wish all of those things... you have no idea how much I wish for those things in your song to happen." I sat straight up, and started cutting my steak. I glanced over to see a very happy yet shocked Ashley just staring across the room.
"I think I figured everything out." Everyone was on a date besides me. Sadly. Kanani was picked up at 7 and didn't want to eat before the date. Glen was on a date with a girl from class, and Clay was on a date with his girlfriend Chelsea, who we have yet to meet.
"And thats?" My mom looked over to me and smiled
"Kanani can be Ashley's manager. I remember her talking about helping with the label so why not?"
"Sounds good." My mom looked to my dad and nodded.
"Spencer how about you be an assistant manager and help Kanani?" My eyes were wide and I was staring, blankly at my dad. When did my parents have time to talk about this?!
"Sounds amazing. Love to help." My dad put a piece of steak in his mouth and quickly chewed before saying something else.
"But, you can't go anywhere until after high school. You made a commitment to me and Air." My mom decided it was a good time to jump in.
"Ashley this also goes for you. I don't want you to plan any tours with Kanani and Spencer until after graduation. Due to the fact that I want all your studies done." My mom was sharing eye contact with Ashley.
"Spencer I still want you at Air but I do expect you to help your sister, especially since you're the one who records everything."
"Will do." I saluted my dad and continued eating.
"Thank you so much Mr and Mrs. Carlin."
"Call me Arthur."
"Call me Paula." I shook my head at my parents, they were so friendly and I loved it.
After about another half hour of embarrassing, funny, sad and happy stories. My parents said their goodnights and went upstairs to their room. Ashley stayed back and helped me clean.
"Do you have anything planned?" I looked up at the stove clock and shook my head.
"Considering its 9:00 at night, I don't think so." Ashley dried the last dish and we made our way to the front door.
"Would you like plans? There's this carnival going on at Venice Beach. Rides, games and to top it off, the beach is always relaxing at night." Ashley took her coat off the coat rack and slowly put it on.
"Is Ashley Davies asking me on a date?!" I laughed as Ashley giggled and blushed.
"That depends." I tilted my head to the side and smiled, "Are you saying yes?"
"Of course." I grabbed my coat and put it on, running to the stairway. "Mom, dad! I'm going out with Ashley! Don't wait up!"
"Have fun and be safe!" I hollered a goodbye back to my parents then ran back to Ashley.
"Ready?" Ashley opened the door and held it open for me.
"After you." I quickly walked out, waiting for Ashley to walk out so I can lock the door. Once the door was locked, we intertwined fingers and walked off to my car.
Her hand fits in mine perfectly.
The first thing we did at the carnival was ring toss. Of course all these games are shit and rigged to not win. Ashley just so happened to win me a little panda bear. I played a dart game and won her a small photo of Elvis Presley that she loves. We went on Starship 3000 and almost threw up the ice cream we ate. I played a basketball game and won Ashley a little minion from Despicable Me. After she played the knock the bottles down game and won me the unicorn from Despicable Me.
"We still have plenty of games to play right?"
"Yes!"
"Thought so, but right now I have something else in mind." I turned towards Ashley while I was cuddling with my unicorn and panda bear
"What's that?" Ashley pointed upwards. My eyes started from the bottom, moving to the top. I never even noticed we were standing in front of a big ferris wheel.
"Ferris wheel time!" Before I knew it, I was being dragged towards the ferris wheel. I watched as Ashley handed the machine guy our tickets and pulled towards the last free spot.
"Great idea!" Ashley brushed off her shoulders and popped her collar.
"I know. I'm awesome." We laughed and I gently shoved her.
"Shut up and give me some cotton candy."Ashley reached into her pocket and pulled out our bag of smashed cotton candy. I happened to accidentally trip Ashley and she landed on the bag of cotton candy.
"Spencer tell me about yourself." I shoved a wad of cotton candy in my mouth and shrugged
"Well what do you wanna know?"
"Why do I feel like there is something you're hiding?" I gulped hard and decided to go with another shrug.
"That, I don't know. There's a lot you don't know about me Davies." Ashley seemed like she somehow moved closer to me.
"Will I ever know?" I nodded
"At some point." Ashley smiled and took my hand in hers.
"How much do you like me?" I looked over to Ashley and kissed her hand.
"A lot more than I should." Ashleys smile turned to a semi frown
"Why do you say that?" I kissed her cheek
"If you stick around long enough you'll know." Ashley nodded and started to lean in, I stared at her lips and licked mine, slowly leaning in. Our lips were mere centimeters apart from touching until the ride stopped and I fell back, as our cart jerked.
"Spencer are you okay?" Ashley tried but failed to sound concern. You could hear the laughter in her face. I pushed myself off the ground and sat back on the seat.
"Just dandy." The ride supervisors started walking around and opened our door. I took Ashley's hand in mine and helped her out. We made our way down the exit stairs and stood still smiling at each other.
"What would you like to do now?" I looked all over the booths and rides. I want to spend time to talk with Ashley, not around people.
"You know i've never seen a beach before?" Ashley's jaw dropped.
"Never?"
"Never ever." Ashley's face was read with disappointment and fury. She grabbed my wrist and started running towards the shore, pulling me in tow.
"First time for everything Spencer!" I ran alongside with Ashley. When we reached the shore, Ashley dropped her prizes on the sand, far away enough so that it wouldn't get wet.
"Ashley what are you doing?!" Ashley took off her shoes, socks, and pants so she was in boy shorts. Next she took off her shirt and stood there in a sports bra. Pulling back her hair and smiled at me.
"I'm about to go for a swim! Don't wait up!" Ashley kissed my cheek then ran to the water yelling.
"Ashley!" I stopped screaming after I saw her go under the water. "I can't believe i'm about to do this." I took off my clothes so I was left in my bra and underwear. "Fuck it's cold." I started running towards the water and dived forward.
"Spencer! You jumped in!"
"First time for everything right?" I was shuddering under the water, trying to keep moving to get used to the water.
"Right."
"Why is it so freaken cold?!" Ashley laughed and swam closer to me.
"It's night time, what do you suspect?" I swam to Ashley, both of us slowly making our way closer.
"I suspect that it wouldn't hurt to be warm!" Ashley shook her head
"Come here." I moved so I was right in front of Ashley, faces inches apart. I jumped a little as I felt Ashley put her hands on my hips and pull me close. I wrapped my arms around her neck and stared into her eyes.
"When are you going to do it?" Ashley tilted her head, with a confused expression.
"Do what?"
"Kiss me."
"Right now." Ashley leaned in and I mimicked her actions. Seconds later, our eyes were closed and our lips had made contact. It was a soft, delicate, strong kiss. Not going further than a kiss. It was perfect...amazing... and that's why I needed to pull away.
I like Ashley a lot... but she works with my mom... I barely know her. I have to speak with my mom before this can happen. I want Ashley, but I need to learn more. I don't want to mess this up with her.
"I'm sorry. I- we- I got to go." I quickly swam away from Ashley and towards shore.
"Spencer!" I could hear, Ashley swimming after me. I walked up on shore and grabbed my clothes. I grabbed my phone and shoved everything in my bag, then walked up towards my car.
Ashley caught up to me and stopped me from stepping into my car.
"Spence what's going on?" I shook my head and looked down
"It's hard to explain."
"I have time."
"I don't" I walked to the back of my car and reached to grab some towels. Good thing I always brought them with me in case I decided to ditch school and go to the beach by myself. I handed Ashley a towel and dried off, throwing my towel in the backseat. I quickly got dressed then started the car and waited for Ashley.
"Um, I don't live too far from you." I just nodded and turned the radio on, driving off. The ride home was a quiet one. The only noise heard was the sound of music. 20 minutes later, I reached my house.
"Thanks for tonight. I'm sorry." Ashley jumped out, grabbing her stuff. I jumped out as well.
"No problem, later." I waved as Ashley started to walk away. I scrunched my eyebrows as she stopped midway then slowly turned around. "Why?"
"Why what?"
"Why did you freak out?" I pinched the bridge of my nose
"It's...complicated." Ashley shook her head.
"We're going to have to talk about this at some point." I nodded and watched as Ashley got into her car.
"Just not right now. Goodnight Ashley." Ashley nodded and turned her car on.
"Goodnight Spencer." She pulled out of my driveway and quickly drove off. I turned and started walking towards my house, never looking back... I really need to get my shit together
