Hey guys...uuuh i know this chapter is NOT At ALL what you were expecting, me either to be honest but uuh tragedy has struck. A friend of mine passed away, AND THEN! I fell out of a bus (it was funny when it happened) but then when I black and blued my already dark skin and fractured my wrist, I knew it wasn't so funny, so I can't write for long periods right now, but I figured, I'll give you what I have.

imaferrari: my inspiration, the reason I'm so moved to write, I hope you like this, and I PROMISE! I'll make my come back good ;)

noodles307, sayiloveyouwhenyournotlitenin : you guys are great! thank you sooo much.

so this is an EXTREMELY SHORT CHAPTER, enjoy what there is

"I still can't believe you did that."

"Did what?"

"You sang for me," Spencer's eyes lit up as the words escaped her lips.

Ashley could only smile, she was getting it right and things finally made sense. She threw her last pebble into the ocean and turned to face Spencer whose eyes were a darker shade of blue, the moonlight hit her skin and gave it a milky glow. Ashley stepped in closer to her, the space between them barely enough for air to pass through. The heat that radiated off of Spencer's skin made them hot all over, it was like the night air around them only served to spike the heat. Ashley rested her head on the blonde's shoulder and breathed in, her hands drifting down finding comfort on Spencer's hips. Spencer's hands reached down and held them there, then resting her head into the crook of Ashley's neck, "you're beautiful" the words vibrated off the brunette's skin making her shudder.

"You don't know what you're doing to me right now."

"Tell me," looking into dark eyes, melting away as the seconds drew out.

"I'd rather show—", her breath was caught when Spencer silenced her with a kiss.

Her heart raced as her mouth drifted across soft lips, she left wet kisses across a smooth jaw line causing small moans to escape a captivating mouth, and she deepened the kiss hot and earnestly muffling the arousing noises with her mouth. She trailed her hands up arms that caused goose bumps to rise and her own body burned in recognition of the warm hands that were now running across the skin under her shirt.

Spencer's movements were halted when she felt lips trailing down her neck; a warm tongue slipping out and tasting her skin. She held on to Ashley firmly then, her legs unable to support her, week from pleasure and undeniable excitement. When Ashley felt Spencer stiffen she looked up at her, "Are you ok?" Spencer only nodded, unable to speak, her face flushed from the intensity of their kiss. And Ashley's lips claimed hers then, their movements unrushed as the brunette's hands held her face. Then stopping briefly to skim her nose along Spencer's cheek inhaling the blonde's soft scent Ashley whispered,

"I'm scared to lose you."

Spencer's heart broke a little at the earnest and innocent tone in Ashley's voice,

"I'm not going anywhere…promise not to hurt me?"

"Never," and she kissed the blonde then, the tears slowly falling. Ashley needed this constant, this safety and protection that Spencer had to offer. When Ashley had turned ten, her dad had said to her, don't ever let love slip…it may drive you crazy and feel like you want to through the walls, but at the end of the day it's the one thing that keeps you going.

"I'm not going to let you slip Spencer."

"Huh?" Spencer asked confused in the shadowy after glow of their tender moment.

"I love you Spence…and it's not just now. I don't know if you feel rushed, or feel like this is rushed but I know what I feel, what I wanna keep feeling…for as long as you let me."

The blonde gazed into Ashley's eyes as she said this, then she smiled,

"I loved you first…no rush," the brunette was left aghast at the realization of truth looming over Spencer's words, she was right…she had loved Ashley first.

"Thank you."

They sat together under a hooded rock, their feet buried in the white sand, the moonlight hitting them both, casting an inseparable shadow on the wall behind them and after a moment, their lips fused, joining their bodies they imitated the shadows behind them
