A/N: I guess I should of explained this in my first a/n. My entire family is Mormon. However they are not like the ones in my story. They are the mainstream ones. I however haven't been in years (approx 13 yrs) since I've been. Makes for a very interesting story with me being gay and living with my girlfriend Kayla. LOL! It's a barrel of laughs making my mom roll her eyes at us. Kayla also plots ways to scare my mom to death. Ps: Kayla wants to know if anyone has a snake we can borrow to scare my mom?

Beta'd by my crazy Cinderella lovin girlfriend who sings along with it.

I own nothing

Chapter 2

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

Smashing my hand into my alarm clock, I groan at being woke up. I would love to sleep in all day and do absolutely nothing for a change.

Looking over to see the time, I realize its 5:30am. The sun is not even up but yet again I am.

BAM! BAM! BAM!

"Spencer get up. We have a lot to do today" Sarah exclaims. She's my father fifth wife, and his youngest.

I grumble some sort of reply to her before rolling out of bed to take a shower. Grabbing my towel and clothes, I make my way to the bathroom. Once inside I lock the door and start up the shower. Turning the radio on, the room fills with music. It's the chorus.

~Walk tall your daughter, a child of God. Be strong - please remember you are. Try to understand, you're part of his great plan. He's closer than you know. Reach up he'll take your hand~

This use to be my favorite song. I always thought it was trying to instill self worth into me and others like me. We sang it all the time in choir during Young Women meetings every Wednesday night. Hearing the song now makes me think its more like everything else they teach us.

~Long before the time you can remember. Our father held you in his arms so tender. Those loving arms released you as he sent you down to earth. He said "My child I love you. Don't forget your great worth~

The chorus starts up again, but I can't stand to listen to it anymore. Flipping the radio off, I dry off before getting dressed in my usual attire. I was feeling a bit more adventuress today so I have my calve length dress on. Opting not to blow-dry my hair, I pull it up into a ponytail instead.

Finally ready to start my day, I'm met by all the women in our household. They all seem giggly and excited. I just wonder what sort of torture they have come up with for me today.

Taking the steps slowly down towards them, I do my best to slow down time. I fail greatly at this and I curse God for making these crazy rules for us to live by.

"We have a big surprise for you today!" My mother states. Raising my eyes in wonder, I wait for her to continue. "Well you see …" she's interrupted by someone knocking at our door.

"They're here!" Ruth smiles as she goes to answer the door. Who is here? Have they invited more people over to bask in my misery?

"We are so glad you came." Annie greets them as Ruth steps to the side. It's Norman's wives. All of them came. Ashley is here too. Maybe I can talk to her today.

"Thank you for inviting us. We are honored to be here and to get to know our soon to be newest sister wife." The oldest one announces. I've nicknamed her alpha wife.

My curly haired brunette stands off to the back out of the way while everyone else surrounds me. I hear questions being thrown at me in all directions and I'm not sure who is answering them because I'm not. "Does she have her wedding dress?" "Yes" "what else…?" I block them out since I'm not sure who is saying or asking what. I'm focused on Ashley and her fiery chocolate eyes. Her eyes haven't left mine. It's almost like she is trying to figure out what is happening between us too. My brain is telling me to push through the women surrounding me and go to her but my body will not move. Every cell in my body wants to touch her again. I want the spark.

"Ashley will you go get the dress from the closet over there?" My mother points to a door not to far from her.

"Yes ma'am"

Our eye contact is finally lost as she rummages through the closet. "Found it!" she exclaims.

The white dress in her hands is very plain and modest but pretty. She brings it over and with each step she is closer and closer to me. To touching me.

Handing the dress over to the crazy women around me, Ashley does the one thing I was craving. Her hand brushes across my arm causing the spark to ignite again and the hairs to stand up. I bite my lip to keep from asking her to not let go. She does however and moves away quickly. She is back to the other side of the room just staring at me again and our little game starts all over. I know it's my turn next. I'm just not sure how.

The nose crinkle is back however and with it my insides melt. I love her smile and I can't help but return it.

What is happening to me? What is she doing to me? What are these feelings? Is it friendship? It must be because anything else would be a sin. However in the back of my mind I know that it is more than friendship.

I've never wished for Glen to be here more than I do now. He would help me understand what is going on. I know it.

Hours later and numerous staring contests between Ashley and I, they are gone. I have never been poked and prodded so much in my life.

"Come on girl's time to clean up before Arthur gets home." Ruth goes to start dinner while the rest of us clean up. I'm not hungry at all. My stomach is filled with butterflies from Ashley.

All the kids cleaned and sat at the dinner table just as Arthur walks in.

"How are my lovely women?" They all reply and he kisses each of them before sitting down. "So kids anything fun happen today?" The smaller ones scream in excitement about all there adventures. My father just smiles and laughs at their stories.

"Spencer great news." Please tell me I'm not getting married. "I've signed the papers you have been officially un enrolled in school today." WHAT! No, I love school it's my escape. He can't do that to me. "Isn't that great?"

"Yes sir" NO!

Everything is being taken away from me. My schooling. My freedom. I'm pretty sure they would take my mind if they could. I have nothing now.

"Time to say grace" He announces.

We all bow our heads and fold our arms.

"Our heavenly father we ask you to bless us and our daily …." He rambles on for what seems like hours about forgiving this and blessing that. My mind however drifts to chocolate eyes and a crinkling nose which puts a smile on my face. Maybe I should pray for answers to my questions and what is the right thing to do.

"In Jesus Christ's name Amen." My father ends his prayer and we can finally eat.

"Spencer I'm glad to see you so happy with fulfilling our lord's will" Arthur exclaims.

I didn't realize I was still smiling about Ashley.
