Authors Note- Hey guys, sorry for the delay in post. I recently got a new job and have not had as much time. But fear not, this Sparia story will keep on! As for those of you who watch the show with dedication like me, it's hard to believe the finale is next week! As always, the more reviews I get the more encouraged I am to write and update!
Gazebo-
Aria felt the cool air rush through her hair as she closed the door behind her, making her way out towards the gazebo in the backyard. Noel was about three feet in front of her and she watched his aggressive and masculine walk as his broad shoulders swayed side to side, a clear affect of his bar-tending skills. She couldn't help but think in her head how elegantly and poised Spencer's walk was compared to Noel's. Spencer moved with grace and determination, a possible side effect of her tennis career, Aria thought to herself.
They moved onward towards the gazebo. Everything in Noel's backyard was perfectly placed, much like the interior of the house. Twinkling lights lined the gazebo as they approached a bench within it. Aria spotted Paige and Emily on the opposite end of the gazebo. Their backs towards Aria, she could see Paige's arm around Emily's backside resting at her hip as they looked up towards the sky.
"Hello ladies. Can a man join this company?" Noel asked sarcastically
"As a friend..." Emily replied with a grin.
"I'm just joking Em, you know I love you guys." Noel responded.
"I know." Emily replied "Aria, where have you been? Hanna was looking for you."
"Yeah. I know. I saw her." Aria quickly replied "What are you guys doing out here?" She continued, trying to change the subject in order to not bring up the awkward encounter in the bathroom.
"There's suppose to be a meteror shower tonight. We're looking to see if we can spot any." Paige replied, once again looking up at the sky.
"Oh right." Aria replied, looking down into her drink. "Shooting stars..." she stated with a sadness in her voice.
"Make for the best wishes" Emily said looking at her friend. When Emily's eyes locked with Aria's her expression turned from delight into one of concern. She must of been able to read the anxiety on Aria's face.
"Babe...can you go get me another drink? Noel can show you where I put the beer." Emily said, handing her empty glass to Paige.
"Sure thing. Come on Noel, you can catch me up on your latest progress in the new Star Wars game" Paige gestured with a laugh.
"Wow, being host is exhausting!" Noel replied with a sigh "Come on lady."
As Noel and Paige walked back towards the house exiting the gazebo, Emily turned to face Aria and looked her dead in the eyes with concern.
"I know that look. What's up?"
"Well..." Aria said with a sigh "How much time do you have?"
Bathroom-
"Spencer. Tell me!" Hanna said her mouth agape with shock.
Spencer let a long exasperated sigh. She wasn't sure what to do, but it would be nice to be able to talk about this with someone since it seemed like Aria didn't want to speak to her at the moment, making her feel even more stress run through her body. She couldn't stand that thought of Aria being upset.
"Well. You know the other night when you and Emily went on a double date to see that new Pixar movie, and Aria and I opted out single selves out?" Spencer began.
"Yeah. You guys know you could have come though." Hanna replied.
"Well Aria and I just ended up staying in and watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer on Netflix. We got a couple bottles of wine and just hung out in my bed. But then..."
Spencer's mind flashed back to the events of that night as she continued to spill the story to Hanna. She kept a few of the more intimate details out of her explanation to Hanna, but could picture the night perfectly in her head.
Aria had placed her wine glass on the bedside and sat up, crossing one of her small legs over the other and faced Spencer, gesturing for her to do the same. Spencer followed suit until both girls were sitting criss-cross across from each other on the bed. Spencer's back resting at the headboard.
At the time, Spencer wasn't sure if it was the wine making her feel these things, but she felt closer to Aria than ever that night. Earlier that night they had talked about anything and everything. From their hopes and dreams, to their deepest fears.
Spencer had begun to examine Aria's face in ways she had not done before. She always thought that her friend was beautiful, but now her beauty was striking her even more. She studied the curve of Aria's smile, and the way she bite her lip after she said something of value. The way her loose curls cascaded over her shoulder where her collarbones peeked out from her creamy soft skin. And finally the way her dark brown eyes were filled with galaxies of kindness and creativity.
Aria placed her hands out with her palms facing up. Spencer quickly caught on to the game Aria was beginning and put her hands on top of Aria's. Their palms met and an electric shock ran through Spencer's body. She felt as though she had just been electrocuted with pleasure and an intense urge to be closer to Aria, while a thousand butterflies danced through her stomach and her center pulsated and wet with desire.
Their eyes met and Spencer was not sure if Aria was feeling the same connection. Aria took her hands and quickly turned them over to slap Spencer's on the back of hers (hence the purpose of the game).
"Too slow..." Aria said hesitantly, looking up at Spencer with wide eyes. Was she referring the game, or to Spencer herself? The tension between the two of them grew.
"Uhm?" Spencer stared to say, not once breaking their locked eyes, "Try again."
The girls replaced their hands. Aria's under Spencer's in preparation for the slap game.
Not breaking eye contact Spencer waited for Aria's hands to move. She felt Aria's hands began to turn as to slap Spencer's and Spencer took every ounce she had of courage inside of her, and grabbed Aria's hands with force, using it to pull the entirety of Aria's body to align with hers. The smaller girl flew towards her from her force and her body landed on top of Spencer, pushing them together.
Their faces met and the desire inside Spencer gave in as she closed her eyes and crashed her lips into Aria's. The moment they met every part of Spencer's body arose with pleasure. Aria reciprocated the movement and moved her lips to meet Spencer's and she felt Aria's tongue dart into her mouth. Aria moved her legs to make the position more comfortable, wrapping her legs around Spencer's waist.
They continued to kiss and Spencer moved her arms to rest upon Aria's thighs. She wanted her, she wanted to touch her. Aria moved her hands from around Spencer's back to then intertwine in Spencer's hair and graze the back of her neck in an upward motion.
Spencer began to let out soft sounds of pleasure as Aria's hands explored her body. She needed more. She began to slid her palms to meet Aria's upper thighs. Aria was facing her as her legs tightened with pleasure around Spencer's hips.
Spencer began to moved her hands slowly up towards the top of Aria's thighs, without opening her eyes, mid-kiss, she softly said to her friend "Do you want me to stop?"
Without a moment's pause Spencer heard all she needed to hear,
"Don't stop."
"But then we woke up this morning and haven't talked about what happened since. I have no idea what's going on. I didn't think I was..."
"Gay?" Hanna replied.
"I don't know. It feels different. It's less a question of gay or straight. I'm feeling something different."
"Well. Does it feel like nothing else you've ever felt before?" Hanna asked, brushing her short blonde hair out of her eyes and taking another sip from her red cup, still sitting on the edge of the bathtub.
"Yes." Spencer said with a sigh. Still looking at the ground. It felt good to finally tell someone, but all she could think of was where Aria had gone and what she was doing.
"Is it like, the world is anew? And you finally feel those things the movies and books always said you would? Like anything is possible? Almost like when you see a shooting star for the first time?" Hanna continued.
Even though Spencer could tell her blonde friend was definitely feeling the affects of the beer, she couldn't help but realize she was accurately describing everything Spencer was feeling.
"Exactly." Spencer replied.
"That my dear..." Hanna said, wrapping her arm around her friend's shoulder. "Sounds a lot like love."
Spencer's eyes widen. She had not even yet considered the possibility. But at that exact moment her mind again raced back to what Aria had asked her in their deep conversation that night, before they spent the night wrapped up in each others arms. "Have you ever been in love?"
Spencer quickly shot up with determination. She needed to find Aria.
