"Hey, Spencer, what's up? Do you want me to pick you up this morning to take you to school?" Ashley said.
"Yeah... I will see you in like ten minutes." Spencer said. Spencer went to Glen's room. "Hey, Glen, Ashley is
giving me a ride to school, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Okay... And little sis, I know mom's been harsh on you about Ashley... But do what 'you' think is right." Glen
said. As much as you wouldn't believe it, Glen knew Spencer probably better than she did.
"Okay." Spencer hugged Glen and went back to her room. Spencer heard Ashley beeping. She ran down the
steps and out to Ashley's car.
"Spencer... I don't wanna go to school today." Ashley said.
"Neither do I." Spencer said.
"So if you don't wanna go to school, and I don't wanna go to school; we shouldn't go to school." Ashley said.
"I don't know, Ash. My parents would flip if they found out." Spencer said.
"The school doesn't call home, so your parents would never find out." Ashley said.
"Okay..." Spencer reluctantly gave in. Ashley couldn't believe it. She hugged Spencer.
"You're the best." Ashley couldn't believe Spencer said yes.
"I know I am." Spencer said.
"Let's go to the beach..." Ashley said. "I brought you one of my bikinis... just in case you said yes."
"Okay..." Spencer said. Ashley drove to the beach. They laid out. "Ash... Can I talk to you about something?"
"Yeah, of course..." Ashley said.
"I think I like girls." Spencer said.
"Like, like like?" Ashley said.
"Yeah, how do I know if I am..." Spencer started.
"Gay?" Ashley finished Spencer's sentence. "Um... you just know. For me... There was this one girl who I liked
and I ended up getting with her and I realized I prefered girls."
"I think I like a girl..." Spencer said.
"Really, who?" Ashley sounded upset.
"I don't wanna tell her, because, she might not feel the same way." Spencer said.
"Spence, any girl (or guy) would be lucky to have you. And if they didn't feel the same way, they are crazy... I
mean, you have a perfect body, you're beautiful, you're sweet, I mean you are the perfect girl for anyone." Ashley said.
"Yeah... but, she thinks I like her ex-boyfriend because I might've made out with him, and she just can't seem
to accept the fact that I am not into him and I am into her." Spencer said. Ashley smiled knowing who the girl was.
"Do you... uh... wanna go to my house?" Ashley asked.
"Yeah... That'd be good." Spencer answered.
"So you are into me?" Ashley asked.
"Yeah... I am..." Spencer answered.
Spencer stared into Ashley's eyes. She saw so much in those eyes. There was pain from her family and lately
Spencer. There was happiness realizing that Spencer liked her. There was love for Spencer There was hope that she
would finally be able to be happy without anybody or anything stopping her. There was a mask up normally, trying to
cover everything she feels inside her. But now, right now... She was letting it all shine through, all through her eyes.
Spencer wondered what her eyes showed right now? Probably a mixture of relief, confusion, love, pain, and happiness.
Ashley leaned in and kissed Spencer. There was so much passion and feeling in the kiss. Spencer never
shared a kiss this intense. It was a kiss filled with longing and want, love and lust, passion and power. With that kiss,
Spencer felt she could die right then the happiest person in the world, same as Ashley.
"So... Spencer I don't wanna rush into anything, you know? Because I am your first girlfriend. I don't wanna
push you into anything. We will do what you are ready for... Okay?" Ashley said.
"Okay... But... Ash, we can't tell anybody..." Spencer said.
Ashley looked at her girlfriend with understanding. She did the same thing with her first girlfriend, Maggie. She
didn't tell anybody really. It really had strained the relationship in a horrible way. She swore that was what broke them
up. Spencer might not have gotten it then, but her mom was eventually going to find out. Just as her mom had. And
knowing Spencer's mom didn't like her really scared her. Because if she finds out in a way other than Spencer and her
telling her in the beginning, there will always be mistrust there. Forever.
"I am going to say okay... But eventually your mom and everyone will find out and it will turn out badly, but if
that is what you want... I will try it." Ashley said. She kissed Spencer.
Spencer thought about it. What did Ashley mean it would be horrible? Did she go through it before? Probably,
she must've.
"Okay... We'll tell my mom after dinner tonite." Spencer said.
That was what Ashley loved about Spencer... She didn't have to ask, she just understood.
"Wait... I have to be there when you tell her?" Ashley asked.
"Strength in numbers right?" Spencer said.
"Mom... Dad... me and Ashley have to tell you something." Spencer said.
"Yes, honey?" Paula had a bad feeling about this.
"Me and Ashley are dating and I am sorry but there is nothing you can do about it." Spencer said.
