ASHLEY'S P.O.V

My life has completely changed these last couple of months.

I used to be so predictable and I had my priorities all wrong.

Now for the first time in my life, I know I'm on the right track.

I know my heart's leading me in the right direction.

"It's still weird waking up to someone watching me sleep"

When her eyes finally open the biggest smile appears on my face.

"Spence I like to think I've moved past being someone"

I know exactly what she means, but I can't just let it slide and not pull her up on it.

"Ash you are so much more than a someone..."

That's better.

"And you are my exception to all my old stupid rules... We can date, we can be in a relationship, we can have sleepovers and you can creepily watch me sleep"

I love the look she's giving me.

"Nice save Carlin..."

"Thank you"

When I brush my lips over hers she smiles.

"How did you sleep?"

"I slept incredible..."

Her bed's incredibly comfortable.

"Spence if I had of known your bed was this comfortable I would have pushed for sleepovers a long time ago"

I love the relationship we have now.

She's still the same girl I met when I walked into her bar, but now she exclusively has sex with me.

"Ash thank you for coming all of this way"

This last week without her has sucked.

"You've ruined me Spence..."

In the best possible way.

"I used to be very independent, now I can't function properly when you're not around"

My life sucks when she's not in it.

"I've been having similar problems this past week"

This time when my lips touch hers she kisses me back.

She's something else.

Her lips are incredible.

"Davies do you have somewhere to be?"

"Davies?"

"You called me Carlin before, so I thought I'd return the favour"

I like it.

"I'm going to go grab us breakfast"

I've been waiting for her to wake up.

"I'll come with you..."

"It's okay"

I quickly lean down for one last kiss.

"Any preference Carlin?"

When I hop up the sheets slide down her body.

She really is something else.

"Surprise me"

Why am I dressed?

Breakfast's not important anyway.

"I should go..."

Her nipples are staring at me.

They're making it very hard for me to leave.

"Okay I'll be back in a bit"

When I walk out of her room I'm surprised Maddy and Zara are awake.

"Morning..."

"Morning"

They're both looking pretty happy with themselves.

"I wasn't expecting you two to be awake this early..."

"Ash it's eleven thirty"

When Zara says that I smile.

"Zara you two sounded like you had a very strenuous night, I thought you'd be sleeping it off?"

"Hunger took over..."

"I'm heading out to grab breakfast if you two want anything?"

"Ashley this right here is why you're my favourite and bestest friend"

"Maddy that wasn't the best sentence you've ever strung together"

"Hunger's getting the best of me"

When she leans across to kiss Zara I turn to leave.

"ASH I'LL COME WITH YOU"

Okay.

"Any requests?"

They're kissing again.

"Anything edible will do..."

"How about I just go and you two carry on with whatever you were doing?"

I'm hungry and I have a very hot girlfriend naked in the other room.

I don't want to stand here and watch them fool around when I could be in the other room with Spencer.

"I'm up"

When Maddy walks towards me she has the biggest grin on her face.

"Let's go"

A SHORT TIME LATER

"Ash that's a lot of food..."

"I have no idea what anyone wants, so I figured I'd just grab a bit of everything and I can't go wrong"

Simple.

"Maddy?"

"Yer..."

"Thanks for helping out last night"

When she looks over at me I shake my head.

I know the look she's giving me.

She can't help herself.

"Ashley Davies are we about to have a moment?"

"We were going to have one, but you ruined it like you always do"

Maddy's always been a little different, that's why we get along so well.

"But seriously I do really appreciate you coming out to New York and helping Spencer out with the bar"

I legally can't sell alcohol so I'm kind of useless.

"Ash you've had some really shitty stuff happen in your life and as your best friend and someone who cares about you a lot..."

We're definitely having a moment.

"I'm really glad that you found Spencer and you convinced her to settle down, because you deserve to be happy"

When she says that I smile.

"You've got a big heart Ash and I know if the situation was reversed you'd help me"

I would.

"So I appreciate the thanks but it's not necessary"

When she wraps her arms around me I hug her back.

"I'm happy I can help and you have a hot girlfriend so that's a bonus..."

When she says that I pull away.

"Ash working behind the bar's never been so fun"

"You always have to ruin the moment..."

"It was getting very serious and I needed to break the ice"

She can't help herself.

"Anyway I'm all about Zara..."

She's grinning.

"She's a lot of fun"
