Chapter 10

Just as Spencer drifted off to sleep she felt that familiar tingling sensation that she had come to dread. The next thing she knew she was standing in front of Jim. Jim did a double take before saying, "Hey, I missed you."

With that he leaned in to kiss her, but she pulled back.

"What, what's wrong?"

"I can't," Spencer said shaking her head.

"What? What happened?"

"I just can't do this anymore! I can't continue to hurt Ashley like this! I've already had to lie to her once because of you! I really can't do this anymore, I can't hurt Ashley, I love her! I need to stop this! I'm sorry, I have to go."

"Are you coming back?"

"I'm sorry Jim, but I don't think I can. I don't think I can just be your friend and I can't be anything more to you. I'm sorry!"

"Are you breaking up with me?!?"

"Yeah, I guess so," Spencer kissed him on the forehead and whispered into his ear, "I'll never forget you though." Then Spencer ran full speed into him and their heads collided. Jim fell back to the ground holding his head and whining. Spencer blacked out.

When she awoke, she was lying in the bed next to Ashley, holding her hands to her head and wincing in pain. She let out a small whimper which woke up Ashley. She rolled over to face Spencer and pulled her closer to herself. She moved Spencer's hands and gently kissed her forehead. Spencer smiled and looked up at Ashley lovingly.

"How do you sleep?" Ashley asked Spencer.

"Pretty good, it was so much better when I woke up to you kissing me."

"Glad I could make your morning," Ashley responded with a smile. Spencer stretched and rolled off the bed to put some clothes on. Ashley looked over at her and said, "Oh come on, do you have to? I really thought that look was working for you."

Spencer smiled and responded, "Yeah, I'm sorry Ash, but I have work today."

"You have a job? Since when? Where do you work?"

"I work at a concession stand selling food and I've worked there since forever, but mostly on Sundays."

"Oh, well can I at least give you a ride there?"

Spencer walked over to the side of the bed that Ashley was laying on, bent over and gave her a kiss, "Of course! I'm just gonna go make some breakfast if you don't mind."

"Not at all, help yourself!" Then Ashley rolled out of bed and walked to her shower.

Spencer walked down the stairs and made omelets for her and Ashley. She set the island in the kitchen for two and poured each of them a cup of coffee. Just as she placed the omelets on the plates, Ashley emerged from the top of staircase. She walked down the stairs and behind Spencer. She wrapped her arms around Spencer's waist and spun her around so she could stare adoringly at her gorgeous face once more. Spencer smiled before pressing her lips up against Ashley's, forcing their embrace to grow tighter. Ashley's lips opened and Spencer's tongue squeezed in between them. Ashley deepened the kiss even further before Spencer pulled away.

"I'm sorry Ash, I really have to get ready for work and that involves eating breakfast which I'm pretty sure I need my mouth to do."

"Well, if you're sure." Ashley responded before taking her seat across the island from Spencer.

"Yeah, I'm sorry, but I'll see you after work and we can hang out then if you want to…"

Ashley began eating her omelet as she responded, "That sounds good, what time do you get done?"

"Um, four."

"Ok, I'll be there to pick you up then. By the way, this omelet is really good."

Spencer smiled and said, "Thanks, I try."

When they finished Spencer cleaned off the dishes and they walked outside to Ashley's car. Ashley drove Spencer to work and they sang car karaoke the whole way there. When they got there, Ashley parked the car and opened the door for Spencer. Spencer got out of the car and kissed Ashley passionately before heading into the concession stand.

Ashley drove off and returned at two o'clock. She walked around to the front of the concession stand and saw Spencer standing at the counter. She motioned to her with one finger to meet her and then pointed around to the back door of the concession stand. Then Ashley walked around to the back door.

"I'm going on a bathroom break!" Spencer yelled as she walked out the back door to meet Ashley.

"All right, but be back in 10 minutes!" her boss yelled back from in front of the grill.

"What are you doing here?" Spencer whispered to Ashley.

"I couldn't wait," Ashley whispered back, a grin forming on her face. She grabbed Spencer's hand and led her to the bathroom. She opened one of the stalls and led Spencer inside. Ashley locked the door and turned around to face Spencer. Spencer pinned Ashley to the stall's door, her hands pinned above her head, and she began to kiss Ashley tenderly. The two began to make out rather intensely and Ashley moaned in pleasure. Just then, the stall's lock gave way and the door opened. The girls fell to the floor, Spencer on top of Ashley with her tongue still massaging Ashley's. They fell at the feet of an elderly lady who must have been around 80. She screamed in shock and the girls quickly stood up and brushed themselves off.

They ran out of the bathroom and Spencer said, "Thanks, I really needed that! But I really should be getting back to work. See you at four?"

"Yeah, I promise this time!"

"Ok good," Spencer romantically kissed Ashley once more before heading back inside to work.

The next two hours went by pretty fast and before she knew it, Spencer saw Ashley's smiling face at the window once more. Spencer ran around the back, out the door, and into Ashley's arms. Ashley kissed her hello. "Mmm, you taste like fries!"

"Is that a good thing?"

"I haven't decided yet, but I'll let you know."

"Ok, sounds like a plan."

The girls walked to Ashley's car and got in. "So where to Miss Carlin?"

"I don't know, but I'm starved!"

"You work at a concession stand!"

"Yeah I know, but I'm not allowed to eat any of the food there."

"Oh, ok, so what are you in the mood for?"

"I don't know, what about you?"

"How about pizza?"

"Sounds good!"

Ashley drove them to the closest decent pizzeria and they went inside. "Whew, this air conditioning feels good! Working in front of a grill all day isn't exactly comfortable in this 90 degree weather!"

"You got a point there Spence! So what kind of pizza do you want?"

"Hmm, how about pepperoni?"

"Ok, do you want one slice or two?"

"Um, two, I'm pretty hungry."

"Ok, coming right up!" Ashley walked up to the counter and came back with four slices of pepperoni pizza. In the meantime, Spencer got them two drinks from the cooler. The girls sat and ate dinner while enjoying each other's company. Spencer talked about how much she had missed Ashley and how boring work had been. Ashley talked about how bored she was without Spencer and how she wasn't sure if she would be able to sleep without her tonight.

"I'm sure you'll make it through the night." Spencer assured her. "Besides, you'll see me at school tomorrow…"

Ashley whispered, "Yeah, but what I want to do with you is SO not school appropriate!"

"Oh, I see," Spencer replied, "well then we'll just have to get together after school tomorrow huh?"

"Definitely!" Ashley replied with a smile on her face.

They finished eating and Ashley drove Spencer home. Spencer walked in the house and her mom greeted her. "Hey Spence, how was your night at Ashley's?"

"It was fine."

"Do anything exciting?"

Discovered some new ways to please Ashley… "No, not really. We just chilled and watched a movie."

"Oh, that sounds nice."

"Yeah, it was."

"Ok, well, you better get to sleep, you have school tomorrow."

"Yeah, I guess you're right. Goodnight mom!"

"Goodnight Spencer, I love you!"

"Love you too mom!" Spencer replied as she walked up to her room. She changed for bed and slipped under the covers. Her mind pondered whether or not she was cured of having to see Jim every night. She decided she would find out soon enough and so she rolled over and fell asleep.
