Sorry for the update taking longer than normal. I wanted to wrap up my other story first.

New chapter, it's a bit shorter than what I'm used to writing, but I am sure that you guys will like it.

Chapter 12 – Absolute

Spencer's POV

"Ashley..." I whispered softly into her ear as I glided my hands down her body and resting them on her chiselled abs.

Ashley stirred a bit as I nuzzled her ear with my lips and began making circles on her stomach with my hands.

"Spencer?" She moaned while turning over and opening her eyes to peer into mine.

"Morning babe." I whispered leaning in and kissing her soft lips while moving my hands up from her chest to her face.

"Did you bail me out?" Ashley asked, sitting up in bed, letting the sheet fall from her naked body.

"Bail you out? From what?"

"From jail..." Ashley replied, looking at me expectantly.

What is she talking about?

"I have no clue what you're talking about Ash."

She gives me this weird look before her eyes widen, seeming like something just clicked in her mind. I'm still more confused than ever, but she smiles at me and leans in and kisses me, making me feel things are okay.

"Sorry, I was just a bit confused." She said as pulled out from the kiss.

"That's okay, I got to go take Dani to daycare and then I'm off to work, but I'll see you tonight? I'll make us something special for dinner since Dani is going to be at Riley's for the night." I said as I kissed her again quickly, before jumping out of bed and running into the bathroom to shower.

As I started the shower, Ashley ran into the bathroom and stood in the doorway staring at me.

"Are you just going to stand there or are you going to join me?"

Ashley smiled and ran towards me, gathering into an embrace before falling into the shower.

---------------------------------------

I got home just a little after six and the house was dark. I'm assuming Paige had already dropped Dani off at Riley's house for the night and Ashley was still at work. I dropped my bag at the door and made my way towards the kitchen to start making dinner.

As I walked into the kitchen, I saw Ashley standing in front of a table full of food with billion of candles lit around the room.

"Ashley, what is this?" I asked, slowly making my way further into the room, glancing around and seeing flowers set up along the floor too.

"I wanted to surprise you." She replied, smiling and crinkling her nose as she held out her hand for me to take it.

"Well you certainly succeeded, this is so beautiful, Ash." I said, taking her hand and squeezing it gently.

"So I can stand here and list off all the reasons why I love you... but it would never be enough. Saying those words, doesn't even come close to the way I feel about you, how I will always feel about you. You're my life, Spencer, and there's nothing more absolute than that." Ashley put her hand in her pocket and pulled out a diamond ring and held it out to me before looking me straight into my eyes and giving me a smile. "And I'm hoping... that I'm your life too."

Oh my god.

"Oh my god, Ashley."

"I know it's beyond corny getting down on one knee..." Ashley said, as she dropped to one knee, "But I love you and if that means I have to be corny, then so be it. Spencer Carlin, Will you mar--"

I didn't even let her finish before I jumped into her arms, tackling her to the ground and kissed her. I had so many emotions running through me at that exact moment, but all I wanted to do was feel her soft lips again and be in her arms.

I will always want to be in her arms.

"You... Ashley Davies are incredible." I whispered, as we pulled out of the kiss, I remained on top of her body as we leaned our foreheads against each other.

"Incredible enough to spend the rest of your life with?"

"Absolutely..." I replied, leaning back in and kissing her passionately. "I can't believe you did all of this..."

"Well I wasn't going to make my fiancé cook after I went all out for my proposal." Ashley said while taking my hand and slipping on the ring before both of us got back on our feet and went to the table. "Besides if you really want to make it up to me, we do have the house to ourselves... all night."

I devilishly giggled and brought her in for another kiss. As we pulled away, my eyes were drawn to the diamond now on my finger. It was even more beautiful than I imagined, but nothing compared to the shine in Ashley's eyes when I looked back at her.

We sat down at the table and enjoyed the delicious candle light dinner that Ashley had prepared for the two of us before heading upstairs to our bedroom.

As I entered the bedroom, the room was yet again filled with candles light around the entire room and flowers all around the bed.

"Ashley..." I turned around and threw my arms around her neck. "I don't deserve you, you know that."

"Yes you do, and so much more." She whispered back in my ear, nibbling on it as she pulled back.

"What if I came up here when I got home?" I laughed as I took another look around.

"Well it's just a good thing you didn't because it would've ruined my surprise." Ashley replied, crinkling her nose while taking my hand and leading me towards the bed.

"I love you so much, Spencer Carlin." Ashley whispered as she fell back on the bed, bringing me with her.

I left out a soft moan as I fell onto her body. "The soon to be Spencer Davies..." I mumbled as I began kissing her.

"I like the sound of that." Ashley replied moaning into the kiss and mumbling between them.

Spencer Davies... I liked the sound of it too.

She ran her hands up my side, removing my shirt in the process and quickly returned her hands to my waist, gripping it tightly as she brought me closer to her. She dug her nails in as my leg came up between hers, causing her body to jolt upwards slightly.

"Spencer..." She whispered, trying so hard to control her breathing as I began undoing her pants.

I worked my way back up to her lips, kissing them frantically as I ran my hands up her sides, lifting her shirt up along the way. I moved to her neck and began nibbling and sucking on it as Ashley moved her hands to my hips and gripped them hard, pulling my hips into hers and grinding them slightly together.

"I love you so much." I whispered into Ashley's ear as she continued to grind her hips against mine and was now digging her nails harder in my waist.

"Make love to me, soon to be Mrs. Davies."

---------------------------------------

I woke up an hour and a half before the alarm went off. Last night was absolutely amazing, and I couldn't believe that Ashley did all of that for me. I laid in bed, staring at the ring on my finger and glared back and forth between it and my sleeping beauty beside me.

I heard the front door open as I slowly got out of bed, pulled on my robe and made my way downstairs, knowing it was Paige, just dropping off Dani.

"Hey, thanks a lot Paige." I whispered, coming down the stairs and seeing her at the front door helping Dani.

"No problem." She replied as Dani gave me a huge and then ran off to the nearby room. "So how was last night?" She asked a bit seductively.

"Oh my god, Paige! Did you know?" I screamed, immediately covering my mouth so Dani wouldn't hear. I wanted to wait until Ashley got up to tell the little monster.

"I was sworn to secrecy. Ashley pulled me away earlier today and asked me to help her out with the candles and flowers. I'm surprised she didn't set the house on fire before you got home. I've never seen Ashley so nervous before." She smiled. "I'm guessing by your reaction and that huge grin on your face, you said 'yes'."

"Of course I did!" I said slightly quieter, while jumping a bit in the air out of excitement. "I love Ashley so much."

"Yeah, you guys are something... I'm actually really surprised it took you this long for one of you finally pop the question."

"I know, I guess we wanted to have Dani first and adjust to having a child around, plus Ashley has her music, and I have my movies so we decided to put off getting married until things kind of settled down."

"We'll you two make a great couple. There's no doubt that you two won't make it."

"Thanks, Paige."

"Did you need me to take Dani for the day?" Paige asked, starting to play with her keys in her hand and shifting her weight from one side to the other.

"No, it's alright Paige. I'm assuming Ashley will want to tell the monster the news when she wakes up, but thank you for picking Dani up at Riley's this morning." I said, leaning in and giving her a hug.

"Yeah, no problem, well I guess I'll see you Monday then. Have a great weekend, Spence, and congratulations again." Paige replied, waving goodbye and walking out the door.

---------------------------------------

"That was like the best sleep I have EVER had." Ashley said, walking into the kitchen and stretching her arms.

"Mmm, me too." I moaned, leaning in and kissing her on the cheek and handing her a coffee mug.

"Is Dani back from Riley's yet? I feel like I haven't seen that squirt in a few days now." Ashley asked, going over to the coffee pot and pouring herself a cup.

"Yeah, Paige just dropped the monster off a little while ago." I replied, pulling out the toast I had toasted for her and put them on a place and placed it in front of her, taking a seat beside her up on the stool.

"Thanks, beautiful." She mumbled, as she took a bite and then kissed me.

As she sat there eating there finishing her toast and coffee, she reached over and grabbing my hand and began playing with the diamond ring on my finger. All I could do was smile as I glanced down to see her perfect fingers around the perfect ring.

"I can't believe we're engaged." I happily sighed as Ashley intertwined our fingers and brought my hand to her face and kissed it lightly.

"What, you were surprised that I asked you to marry me?" Ashley sarcastically asked and gave me a small smile.

"I'm surprised you did it last night." I replied honestly.

"Well I've been thinking about how precious time is, and I just didn't want to wait any longer. I want the world to know you're mine... forever."

"I couldn't agree more." I whispered, capturing her face and placing a long kiss on her lips.

"Ashwee!" The blonde boy yelled, running into the room and jumping onto Ashley's lap as we pulled out of the kiss.

"Hi!" Ashley responded, sounding a bit unsure with her reply, but caught the boy in her arms and sat him on her lap.

"I missed you last night. No one was there to sing me to sleep." The boy pouted and leaned his head against Ashley's shoulder.

"Dani?" Ashley mouthed, looking over at me confused and then pointing to the boy that was in her arms.

"Yes, Daniel. Our son."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A/N: I thought I'd switch it up with the POV after jumping back to regular time. Most of the time I do Ashley's POV, but I thought it would be interesting to see the other one and see how Ashley's reactions are seen thrown Spencer's eyes.

I also decided to keep Dani around, but added a twist to the character. Although I don't think a boy toddler is as cute as a girl toddler, it will still work.

I have finished writing my other story, You Always Have Been, so I'm only working on this one at the moment which means that updates should come a bit faster.

R & R.
