Chapter 22

Spencer's POV

Several weeks have gone by since my return. Ash and I have become even closer if that is even possible. She has almost become my shadow. The only time she is not with me is when I am taking my shower. I do however plan to change that in the near future. That dream I had, awakened so many feelings I had and diminished my fears.

Something else is bothering her as well. I'm not positive, but I think it has something to do with parent's day tomorrow. Either she nervous about seeing her mother again or worried she will not show up. I wish I knew. We haven't talked a lot about her mother. It's a sore subject for her. Every time I bring it up, she'll change the subject on me or not respond at all. I guess I'll find out in time.

My curly haired brunette interrupts my inner musing, "Have you heard anything back from the sheriff yet?" She wraps her arms around my waist while she waits for my reply.

"Yeah." I whisper as I lean back into her. Enjoying her warmth and comfort, I finish telling her everything I know. "There's not going to be a trial. He pleaded guilty to kidnapping, so I'm not sure what's going to happen to my father now."

"Well, at least he finally did something right." She squeezes me tighter. "Mr. C realized he was wrong. He knows it now, so whatever punishment he gets will be well deserved." Sighing a little, Ash places a small kiss to my neck. "I love you so much Spence." She husks out before becoming content with me in her arms and basking in the silence.

"I love you to Ash."

Ashley's POV

Tomorrow is parent's day, and I'm dreading it and not just because summer's ending either. The others are too but for different reasons. They are all scared of being embarrassed by their loved ones to where I'm more worried of being rejected again.

Spencer has asked me many times over the last couple of weeks what's been bothering me, but I'm not sure how to approach that subject without spilling all the beans. In a nutshell, my mother would rather spend her time finding new fuck toys or spending the money my father left me when he died. I'm probably worried over nothing really. She will not even show up tomorrow. Maybe Spence and I can go hang out at our pond during parent's day. I think I'll ask her about doing that tonight after our showers.

"Christ is the end of the law so that there may be righteousness for everyone who believes. Romans 10:4" Paula's voice breaks through my thoughts. Bible study is still the worst part of my day. I hate being here when Spencer is not. At least I know she'll be waiting for me in our room when I get done.

"Ashley!"

"What?" Everyone is staring at me. Shit! I should have been paying attention. I missed the question.

"I asked you a question. What does Romans 10:4 mean?" Mrs. C's eyes are completely focused on me waiting my answer. I never do well under pressure.

"Romans?" I tap my fingers on my leg trying to come up with an answer. "Um... uh... that we are free of them and as long as we believe in him then we are righteous?" I'm not sure what I just said because it didn't make a bit of sense to me.

Sighing, Paula runs her hands through her hair "That's enough for tonight, guys. I'll see everyone tomorrow." We all get up to leave, but Paula stops us. "Don't forget your parents are coming tomorrow."

Thanks for that lovely reminder. I almost forgot that the she-beast would be here. Maybe? I almost said that aloud but decided against it. Instead, I made my way out of the room to head back to the house for the night.

"When you're holding me like this, I'm carelessly lost in your touch. I'm completely defenselessly. Baby it's almost too much. I'm helplessly, hopelessly, recklessly falling in love"

The sound of loud music and singing stops me from entering our bedroom. Listening closely, I can tell Spencer is singing along with the music. I'm not sure what the song is, but I like it.

I crack the door open, so she will not see me. Peeking in, I see my blonde hair beauty dancing around the room with a pillow while singing.

"Let stars stand as witness to it all. Say the word, and tonight I will follow you anywhere. I just can't pretend anymore. I'm too sturdy to fall"

Unable to move, I watch as she twirls around the room a few more times before slowly continuing to sway back and forth with pillow. I didn't think it was possible, but I have just fallen more in love with her.

Opening the door just enough to sneak inside unseen, I replace myself with the pillow and continue to dance and sing with her.

"I'm helplessly, hopelessly, recklessly falling..."

I never finish the song because of the soft gentle kiss covering my lips. She pulls back after a few seconds. "How much did you see?"

"All of it." Redness spreads across her face at my statement.

"Don't be embarrassed. I loved watching you dance."
