Spencer's POV

I can't believe my parents and my so called brother invited Ashley over for dinner, this is so embarrassing. Just really want to crawl under my bed and hide until the world decides to swallow me whole. I got up from bed, got my towel and went into the bathroom to take a quick a shower. The clock read 5:37 pm, which meant I had almost an hour to get myself ready. You're probably thinking why right? Well I don't want to look like a mess in front of Ashley. I want to make a good impression, nothing wrong with that…..is there? I sighed and got into the bathroom, switching on the shower, before getting in.

10 minutes later

I quickly got dressed into a nice black top and a jacket with tight black jeans. I know it doesn't sound to fancy, but at least I dressed up. I saw the makeup kit on my desk and sighed, if only I knew how to use it, the problem was I didn't have clue, most girls would but I don't. I was never really into the whole makeup thing. My glasses were large and when I looked In the mirror I realized that it almost reached my nose. For a brief second I took it off to see what it would look like, but my vision just went blurry all too quickly and I put it back on. I wish I never had to wear glasses, I look way to nerdy in them. But then again, there's nothing really wrong with being a nerd. It just means I'm really smart that's all. A knock on the door caused me to look, I replied come in, only to be met with Glen with a hand over his face. I rolled my eyes, he must still be scarred from that one time he almost walked in on me naked because I just came out from the shower. "Glen, you do know that you can open your eyes, and yes I am dressed amd decent."

"Oh thank god, I don't want to relieve that moment ever again, once was way too much." I rolled my eyes and threw a pillow at him. It was his fault for not knocking on the door. You see my parents don't allow locked doors in the house just in case of an emergency and we needed to get out in a hurry. "Not my fault you didn't knock before coming in, I mean you should've known since mum and dad don't allow locked door remember?" A look of confusion was etched on his face but then he scrunched his eyebrows and crossed his arms, the thoughts probably coming back to him. "Oh yeah, sorry I forgot about that, we really need some sighns around here, especially for you Spence."

"Yeah yeah, whatever, now is there something you wanted or did you just want to talk about something in particular?"

"No, no, I just wanted to say that Dinners ready and that Ashley should be arriving soon, she called before and said she might be over 15 minutes early." What Ashley called, how did she even get our house number, I don't remember giving it to her. "She called? How did she get our house number, I never even gave it to her." Glen just chuckled at my tone and shook his head. "Don't worry, I asked the same thing, and she said Kyla gave it to her." I smiled, she must've asked Kyla for her number, that was just too cute. Who knew she would be shy to ask me, I mean she could've just asked, but judging from Glens news it sounded like Ashley was to shy to ask. "Oh ok, thanks."

He nodded and smiled, grinning like an idiot. "Whats with the creepy smile Glen?'

"Oh nothing, I can see you dressed up."

"Oh shut up, it's just jeans and a t-shirt." He just laughed and I threw another pillow at him witch he dodged. "Chill little sis, I was just saying, you never dress up when he have guests at home, but for Ashley, wow I can see why." I rolled my eyes, and he walked out before I threw something else at him. I smiled, I can't wait to see her, but then again, my family might embarrass me.

6.15 pm….

A knock on the door cause me to smile and I quickly got up from the sofa to answer it, but not before looking at myself in the mirror and adjusting my hair. Nodding at myself in appreciation I walked up to the door and took a deep breath before opening it. My mouth hung open a little bit when I saw what Ashley was wearing. Glen walked up to the door and seemed to be stunned to, but he recovered quickly and acted like his goofy old self. "Ashley, come in, come in, it's great to see you twice in one day, and may I say you look stunning." Ashley laughed at his goofiness and looked at me. I blushed and waved like a dork. "Uh h-h-hi yeah, you d-d-do look stunning." She smiled and Glen led her into the living room only to be bombarded by none other than my parents. "Ashley, it's great to finally meet you…." My mum pulled her into a brief hug and looked over at me with an eyebrow raised mouthing "finally?" Ooops, mum may have heard me talking about Ashley a little too much.

"Uh it's great to finally meet you too Mrs Carlin, you've got a lovely home." My mum squeaked in delight and hugged her again. "Why thankyou dear, now may I introduce you to my husband Arthur, and…well you've already met Glen."

"Hi sir, it's very nice to meet you, thanks for inviting me over for dinner, It's very kind of you"

Is she just perfect or what, she's so polite. Why couldn't she be like this at school all the time instead of the queen bitch. "You too darling, know why don't we have a conversation in the living room. Him and Glen led her into the living room and I slapped my hand to my forhead, great! They're going to interrogate her. I looked at my mum and she giggled. "Don't worry honey, you know what Glen and your dad are like. They just want to make sure your safe, and to find out what her intentions are with you that's all."

"But mum, were not even together, there's no need for the whole interrogating thing."

"Honey, it's obvious that she likes you, I saw her looking at you when you opened the door, and may I say she was as you teens say "checking you out".

"Mum, don't ever say that again, it didn't sound right coming from you" She laughed and pulled me into the kitchen to help her with dinner. She was making Chinese dumplings, lemon chicken with steamed basmati rice, and for dessert warm apple crumble served with vanilla ice cream. I sniffed it all in and almost moaned. It smelled so good, I couldn't wait to eat it. My parents are the best cooks ever, they can practically cook anything!

The interrogation – Ashley's POV

I was slightly nervous when Glen and Mr. Carlin pulled me into the living room and closing the door. I gulped but politely sat down. "Know Ashley, let's just cut to the chase, shall we. What are your intentions with my daughter?" Wait? Are they interrogating me? Wow, me and Spence aren't even together, were just friends…..well, for now. "What's with the smile, are you planning something?" I looked up to be met by Glen looking at me with his arms crossed and a very intimidating serious face. "Uh, no sorry…..but to answer your question, I have no intention of hurting Spencer, were just friends."

"Hmm, is that all your hoping to be with my daughter, or are you planning to be something more than that?"

"Uh well, I uh…I uh, what I mean to say is, I certainly find your daughter very cute and attractive, and I was maybe hoping, possibly if it's ok with you that is, if I may ask her out one time?" Get it together Ashley, it's going to be okay, they just want to know what your intentions are and your being honest so they have to like that right? "Hmmm, what do you think son?" I saw him look at Glen and Glen tapped his chin a few times before looking at his dad. "Well, she sounds like she's telling the truth to me, plus she did help Spencer in the parking lot today and I really appreciated that." I smiled, glad that I have his approval. "Well okay, you have our consent, but be warned, it you ever hurt her, I'll send Glen to come after you." I merely gulped and nodded. They looked at me one last time before they burst out laughing, and I looked at them like they were crazy. "Sorry about that Ashley, but your face was just priceless, I hope you understand, we just wanted to make sure that Spencer's in good hands, besides, I wanted to know my sister's crush and what her intentions are." Spencer has a crush on me? I smirked.

"Don't worry I completely understand, but just for the record I don't want to be interrogated by you guys again." They just laughed and patted my back. We spoke for a little while before we heard Mrs. Carlin calling us into the dining room to have dinner. The food smelled amazing. Chinese was my favorite. "Wow smells good Mrs. Carlin, it looks so good, thank you again for inviting me."

"Oh it's really not a problem dear, we wanted to, besides we wanted to see what was so special about you that caused our baby girl here to talk about you so much. It was always Ashley did this, and Ashley did that…..she's never shut up, I caught her ranting about you down that corridor." I smirked at this statement, I never knew Spencer's mentioned me to her parents before. I saw Spencer from across the table blushing like mad, and I had to pinch my self from going over there and kissing her on the cheek. "Mum! That's enough talk about me, know uh, why don't we just dig into the food hey, everything looks so good, don't want it to go to waste know do we.? I just laughed and we all dug into out food, this was going to be an interesting evening.
