That morning, the girls woke up sometime around 10am. Actually, Ashley woke up an hour earlier so she could fix them breakfast. She fixed some waffles, bacon and some freshly squeezed orange juice. She put Spencer's meal on a little fold out tray and made her way to the room.

Ashley: Hey, Spence. Breakfast!

Ashley's voice seems to have a certain tone of clarity, for some reason.

Spencer: Oh, hey. Thanks, Ashley. That's so sweet.
Ashley: Well, you know me. Only the best for you.

Spencer gives Ashley a sweet smile and kisses her always perfect lips. Ashley smiled at the thought of Spencer getting pleased over something as little as breakfast.

Ashley: It doesn't take much to please you, huh, Ohio girl?
Spencer: (tilts her head to the right side and grins) I'm an L.A. girl now, Ash.
Ashley: Oh. It's about time.

Spencer eats her meal and then sits and talks to Ashley.

Somehow, their conversation moved its way to the kitchen.

Ashley: So, what are we going to be doing today?
Spencer: Hmm, I don't know. But, before we do anything -- we should probably swing by my place and let my family know I'm still alive.
Ashley: Yeah, I guess you're right. Well, it's about 11:47am, so… what? We'll leave around like noon or something and we'll just see where the day takes us?
Spencer: Yeah. I love being spontaneous like that.
Ashley: Oh, I bet you do. And you're pretty good at it, too!

Spencer gingerly punches Ashley on the side of her rib cage, before she goes to the sink with both of their dishes.

Ashley: Spencer -- what are you doing?
Spencer: Cleaning up. It's the least I could do.

Ashley gets up from her seated position, gets behind Spencer and wraps her arms around Spencer's thin waist and whispers quietly in her ear.

Ashley: Spencer, put the dishes down.

Spencer obeyed Ashley's command and turned around; still with Ashley's arms wrapped around her.

Spencer: But -- I want to help.
Ashley: But you're too perfect to help.
Spencer: Ash, I'm not perfect.
Ashley: Well, to me you are. And you shouldn't be doing work like this. Anyway, that's why we have a dishwasher.

Spencer seemed to have blushed a little at the comment Ashley made about having a dishwasher. But, at that moment in time, she truly felt the love that was between the two of them. She had a quick flashback of the time she had some sort of panic - attack in Ashley's bathroom. She remembered how Ashley was there, fully taking care of her. She also remembered how she said the three most important words you could ever say to someone: "I love you". When she said those words to Ashley, she really did mean them.

Once again, Spencer was lost in thought and Ashley could always tell when she was.

Ashley: Back to Earth, Spencer.
Spencer: (shaking her head) Huh? Oh, sorry. I was just --
Ashley: Thinking?
Spencer: Yeah.
Ashley: I can always tell.

Spencer gave Ashley one of her Award Winning smiles, and then gave her a peck on the cheek.

Ashley: Let's go get dressed.
Spencer: Alright.

Once dressed they ended up at Spencer's house.

Ashley: You want me to come with you?
Spencer: Umm, you can. But just -- don't be surprised if you get some evil, 'go to hell' looks from the family.
Ashley: Spencer, I've gotten dirty looks all my life, I think I can handle my own in your house of Carlin-ness.
Spencer: Okay, let's go then.

Spencer and Ashley walk in the house and once again, something was weird. Spencer goes in the kitchen: no one. She goes in the dining room: no one. She went upstairs to her parents' room: still, no one was to be found.

Ashley: Hey, Spence. I think your brother's home.
Spencer: Glen?
Ashley: No, Clay. I can hear him crying or something like that. I think it's coming from the bathroom.
Spencer: What? (goes to the bathroom door and knocks on it) Clay?
Clay: (sniffles back some tears) Spence? What are you doing home so soon?
Spencer: I came home to tell everyone what my plans were for the day. Clay, what's wrong?
Clay: (opens the door) Oh, Chelsea -- she broke up with me.
Spencer: (hugs Clay) Oh Clay, I'm sorry.
Clay: (sniffs) It's okay. I just -- I really loved her, you know?
Spencer: (turns to look at Ashley) Yeah, I know exactly how you feel.

Ashley smiles at the heartwarming comment Spencer just made and then Spencer turns back around to Clay.

Spencer: Where is everyone?
Clay: Oh, Glen went out with Madison in search of college recruiters, Mom's working and Dad, well -- he said he just needed some fresh air. So, he went for a drive down Windrin's Drive.
Spencer: Oh. Well, when he comes back will you tell him that I'm going to hang out with Ashley today.
Clay: Sure.
Spencer: (hugs and kisses Clay on the cheek) Thanks, Clay. I love you.
Clay: I love you too, Spence.
Ashley: (gives Clay a sweet smile of compassion) I'm sorry, Clay. I hope it gets better for you.
Clay: I'm sure it will. Thanks.

Even though Spencer felt bad for leaving Clay when there was something going wrong in his world, she had to be with Ashley. She was a drug and Spencer was addicted. In Spencer's world, you can never get enough of Ashley.

Ashley: So, where are we going to now?
Spencer: Hmm, well it's kind of a dark day today, so… how about we go to the -- Riverbank Park?
Ashley: Yeah, sure. Man, I haven't been there since, well since my dad was actually around. How old was I, like 5 or so? (looks at Spencer with her eyebrows cocked up) Crazy, huh?
Spencer: So, it's a good idea, then?
Ashley: (kisses Spencer lightly) It's a great idea.

They pull out of the Carlins' driveway without a care, but what they didn't know was that Clay was watching them through Glen's window.

Clay: (thinks out loud to himself) Man, now my sister's getting more girls than me. I never thought I'd ever say those words.

He scratches his head in confusion and then goes to the kitchen to eat his problems away.
