Chapter 4

"MORNING!"

Spencer screamed and fell off her bed with a loud thunk.

"Oh my God! Are you okay?"

"What the hell…?" Spencer grumbled rubbing her head.

"Oh I'm soo sorry!"

"What's going on… who are you?"

"Where are my manners? Hi I'm Amanda! I'm your new roommate!"

Spencer felt around for her bed. After finding it she pulled herself up and rolled over to look at her clock.

"Shit. (Turning to Amanda) You know its seven thirty in the morning right?"

"Yea! I figured that you had slept in long enough we have a lot to do today!" Amanda squealed in excitement.

"What are you talking about what stuff? It's Saturday I don't have classes…"

"Not that silly, re-decorating the room!"

"Umm…" Spencer was saved the necessity of responding to this statement because her phone rang at that moment.

"Hello?" Spencer said still a bit groggy.

"Spencer? It's Aiden. I feel really bad about abandoning you last night. Did you get home all right? Ashley told me you guys were dancing and then you left. What happened?

"Nothing," Spencer lied, "I was just getting tired and it was really crowded in there…"

"Oh okay. Well as long as you're okay," Aiden said concerned.

"Yea just peachy."

"Okay I have class so talk to you tomorrow..." Click.

Spencer sat a moment remembering last night's events. Did she imagine it? Did she imagine being that close to Ashley? Did she imagine the feeling of being in paradise just a whisper from Ashley in her ear brought her? Spencer shook her head to clear herself of these thoughts. I must have imagined it…I'm not gay…

"HELLO? You there Spence?" Amanda yelled.

"What? Oh yeah…"

"Well than let's get moving!"

Nine tedious hours later Spencer thought her brain was going to explode! Between Amanda's high-pitched voice and her confused feelings for Ashley she just couldn't clear her head.

"Well I think that is good for today! It's already looking better!" Amanda yelled or maybe that was her regular voice? Spencer didn't care anymore.

"Uh Amanda I'm gonna go to the umm…the library…yea."

"Oh okay I guess I was kind of hoping we could play Trivial Pursuit…"

"Maybe some other time. Bye!" Spencer hurried out of the room leaving a very disappointed Amanda behind. On her way out of the building she called Dylan.

"Hey Dylan! It's Spencer!"

"Hello my damsel in distress." Spencer giggled.

"You wanna go out tonight to a keg party or something. I figured if I get trashed you could be my knight in shining armor."

"Anything for you my princess." They both laughed. Spencer knew he was kidding it was just the way Dylan was. Wow it's like I've known him all my life.

"I'll pick you up in a few minutes Spence."

"K' bye!"

A few minutes later Dylan arrived ready to escort his new friend anywhere she wished.
