I got a story, it's almost finished.
Now all I need is someone to tell it to.
Maybe that's you.

This Is My Girlfriend (Part Three)

"James, we need to talk." Spencer said softly, looking him straight in his blue eyes. They were nice. But she happened to like brown ones better.

James exhaled audibly. "I could tell."

Spencer gave him a confused expression. "You could?"

James nodded. He played with the collar of his shirt, probably out of nervousness. Or out of knowing. "It's Ashley, right?"

Spencer just looked at him. How did he know? "I, well, I don't know James, it's just that…" The blonde trailed off, not really knowing how exactly to describe, in perfect or any detail, what it was about Ashley. Because it was everything about the brunette. And Spencer could go on for hours and hours describing her and speaking all the things she liked, admired, craved, about the older girl.

"Come on Spence. I know what Ashley looks like. I know you've been hanging out with her a lot since you two met. Honestly, I was that way about the girl for a while."

This surprised Spencer. She hadn't known James had ever been interested in his friend. But then again, how could anyone not be interested in Ashley Davies?

"You did? I never knew that." She said quietly, a small smile playing at her lips.

James nodded and leaned back into the couch. "Yeah, when we were in high school. But then, you know, I'm not really her preference."

Spencer chuckled genuinely. No, he was definitely not Ashley's preference.

"I'm sorry James." Spencer admitted honestly. Because she was. She felt bad, but she felt something, something more genuine and…wonderful with the brunette she had only met a little while ago. "I think you're a great guy, though."

Now it was James' turn to chuckle genuinely. "That's what they all say." He sang out. "I get it though. She's gorgeous. You're gorgeous. It works."

Spencer's heart felt warm at the way James was acting. He was being great, understanding. At least Spencer knew she had picked a great guy. Too bad he was just that, a guy.

"So you know." James continued with a sly smile. "If you ever need a third…"

Spencer slapped James on the arm. "Hey! Gross, no."

James laughed and smiled at his now ex-girlfriend.

"Friends?" He asked, holding out his hand.

The blonde nodded and shook it warmly. "Definitely."

Spencer gave her friend James a kiss on the cheek right before she left, out his door and into her car. Down the road, onto the highway, off the highway and to Ashley's apartment complex. It was funny, she had butterflies in her stomach walking up to Ashley's door. She felt tingly and she couldn't even see the girl. It was just the sole thought. She smiled as she knocked on the door.

"Hey." Ashley said nervously when she opened it. Her hands were clasped together and her brow was furrowed.

"I broke up with James." Spencer blurted, taking a step into the cozy apartment. Her eyes wandered over the brunette girl, wearing baggy pajama pants and a tank top. She was pretty sure her blue eyes glazed over at the sight of the other girl. She looked…delicious.

"I, you did?" Ashley asked, closing the door and walking up to Spencer. Closer than was necessary for a conversation. The blonde nodded as her hand reached out to play with the hem of Ashley's worn tank top. "Uh, I'm sorry?"

Spencer chuckled and met twinkling, bright chocolate eyes. "I'm sure you are." She said dryly, with a hint of a smile on her lips.

"Yeah, I'm not." Ashley admitted. "Why?" The brunette asked stupidly. Obviously she knew the answer to that question, but this Ashley Davies was never very conceited. Also, she was quite distracted by the soft hand that was now rubbing her very hot stomach under her shirt.

Spencer took a step closer to the girl. "Because I want you." She simply explained.

Ashley felt her heart beating furiously. "I want you too."

"You do?" Spencer asked slyly.

The brunette nodded vigorously. She nodded with a sense of purpose and absolute sureness. Ashley grinned when Spencer traced her jaw line, lips, and nose with a finger. Ashley shyly pulled Spencer towards her by her belt loops so that they were nose to nose. "Should I feel bad for James?"

"I think he'll be just fine." Spencer murmured. Then she made contact with lips that had consumed her mind and body.

Smiling into the kiss, Ashley let her hands rub Spencer's sides affectionately. They moved to the small of her back and gripped harder when her bottom lip was bitten by Spencer.

"This is all you neck's fault, you know." Ashley said through pants as she pulled away, but not too far, from the girl in front of her.

"My neck?"

"Yeah, it tempted me."

Spencer smiled and gave the side of Ashley's mouth a wet kiss. "Other parts of me can tempt you too, ya know."

And they did.

"What about her?" James asked, squinting his eyes through the crowded bar.

"Straight." Both Ashley and Spencer said at the same time. "Definitely straight."

James nodded. "You sure?" The guy wanted to be sure this time. Like, really sure.

"Yes." Spencer laughed as she turned into Ashley to hug her deeper. The brunette nudged Spencer's cheek with her nose playfully before kissing it.

"Okay good." He glanced at his two friends. "God, get a room."

"We will later." Spencer smirked. Ashley blushed and ducked her head.

As James went across the room to talk to the girl he had spotted, Spencer brought her hands around Ashley's neck.

"Hi."

"Hi there." Ashley responded, inching her lips closer to Spencer's. "Can we play at Toys R Us tomorrow?"

Spencer rolled her eyes at the other girl. "You're such a little kid."

"I just think you look sexy in your khakis. Like a sexy nerd." Ashley said thoughtfully. Her eyes locked on Spencer's pretty blue ones and she smiled.

"Uh, hey." A deep voice interrupted their staring match. Alright, eye-fucking was more like it. Both girls turned to look at James and the girl who was at his side. She was cute, and looking at James with wide, happy eyes. "This is Jenna."

They introduced themselves.

"Hi, I'm Ashley." She paused and looked at Spencer, smiling at the words she would get to say next. "This is my girlfriend, Spencer."
