The Great Compromise

Toby's POV

The sunlight peeked through the window curtain. I don't know what time it is and I have no idea when I fell asleep. My arm is wrapped around something. I figured I was just holding onto a pillow, but when o moved my hand I felt someone's bare skin. My eyes shot open and I found myself having my arm wrapped around some girl. Her back is turned to me, so all I could see was her brown hair. I lifted my head up to see who I had my arm wrapped around. My eyes widen when I saw that it was Spencer that I'm holding.

I took a deep breath and carefully tried moving my arm from around her without waking her up. We came here last night to talk about our first time. We both agreed that it was a mistake and nothing like that should ever happen again. Then the next thing you know, we're ripping each other's clothes off and going at it like wild animals. What the hell is wrong with us? My next step is to get out of bed before Spencer wakes up. When I moved, Spencer started to stir. She made a mumbling sound like she was trying to figure out where she is. Then she rolled over to lie on her back. She turned her head to the right and gasped once she saw me.

"Oh no, did we?"

I nodded, "we did."

"Not again." She ran her fingers through her hair and groaned. "What the hell is wrong with us?"

Spencer got up and started putting her clothes on. This is the second time that we slept together and the third time we had a slip up. This really cannot keep happening. It seems like no matter how hard we try to prevent it from happening, it ends up happening. We both stood up and met each other in the middle of the room. Spencer wasn't completely dressed and I still need to find my shirt.

"Have you seen my blouse?"

"Um I think I threw it over there," I said, while pointing towards the table in the corner of the room.

She walked over there and started looking for it. She finally found it sprawled out on the floor behind the table. While she was putting her blouse back on, I was looking for my shirt. I ended up finding it hanging over the lamp shield.

"This cannot keep happening," she said while walking back over to me. "We really need to stay away from each other."

"I know, but we're in the same tour group."

"All we have to do is stand next to our friends and far away from each other."

"What about at school?"

"We will avoid each other."

"How can we avoid each other? With our luck we'll probably get paired up again."

"If that happens we will just do it and be done with it."

"Did you say do it?"

She shook her head and said, "no, I mean we do our work."

I looked down and sighed, "I'm sorry."

"What are you sorry for?"

"This whole thing is my fault. I started it by kissing you."

"Um excuse me, but I'm pretty sure I kissed you."

"No, I totally kissed you first."

"You may have kissed me, but I spiced things up by ripping off your shirt, so it's my fault."

"Taking my shirt off was nothing. It was me taking off your blouse and bra that got things going."

"You are so delusional if you think you're the one that started this."

"Here we go again with you being the same stubborn person you always are!"

She gasped, "I'm not stubborn, I'm right."

"You're right to be wrong!"

"That doesn't make any sense!"

"Maybe not to you, because you're stubborn."

"You're an idiot!" She shouted.

"You're stubborn!"

"I kissed you first!"

"No, I kissed you first like this!"

I grabbed her by the waist and pulled her body against mine. Then I crashed my lips onto hers and she responded instantly. Her arms wrapped around my neck and her fingers were getting tangled up in my hair. I gripped her waist and pulled her body closer to mine. She moaned and slipped her tongue into my mouth. Spencer finally opened her eyes and pushed me away once she realized what we were doing.

I pulled back and took a few steps away from her. "I'm sorry," I breathed out."

She sighed and sat down on the end of the bed. I waited a few seconds before sitting down next to her.

"Something's really wrong with us." She spoke after awhile.

I nodded in agreement. "Yeah I know."

"If we hate each other, then why do we keep doing this?"

"Maybe it has nothing to do with emotion. Maybe it's because everyone else is doing it and we've never done anything like this before."

"What are you saying?"

"Clearly we're not going to be able to stay away from each other, so maybe we should just keep doing it."

"Having sex with each other."

I shrugged. "Yeah I mean sex doesn't have to come with emotions right? We don't have to like each other. Maybe we can just have a casual sex relationship. It will make things easier for us and who knows maybe this will help us get tired of it. If we get tired of it then we'll stop eventually."

"So basically we're each other's bed buddy."

"Something like that."

She thought about it for a few minutes. "Well I have to admit the sex is pretty great. Its amazing actually. I guess we could give it a try, but there are some rules."

"What kind of rules?"

"For one our friends cannot know about this. Two we stop as soon as one of us starts dating someone, which won't be to likely. Lastly we can't grow emotions for each other and we can't start liking each other or even the strong L word. Agreed?"

I nodded and said, "agreed."

Spencer's POV

Thankfully Hanna was not back in the room when I walked in. When I walked in her bed was made and it looked like she never came home. She probably went off with Caleb last night. It's also a good thing she isn't here, because if she was she would be question me about where I was. She might ask why my hair is messed up and why my makeup is smeared all over the place. I didn't even notice my makeup looked bad until I looked in the mirror. I grabbed some clothes then walked into the bathroom to take a shower. When I came back out, Hanna was just getting home. I'm guessing she had a fun night since that smile of hers never left her face. She stumbled blindly towards her bed and sat down.

"Morning," I said.

"Good morning," she smiled like an idiot."

I smiled, "where were you?"

"With Caleb," she giggled."

"Are you still drunk Hanna?"

"Nope," her smile widen. "I'm in love."

"I'm guessing that you and Caleb had a lot of fun."

She nodded, "oh yeah we had a lot of fun."

There was a knock on our door and Hanna got up to answer it. Aria and Emily walked in the room and sat down on one of the beds. The both looked exhausted. Aria looked the worst.

"Aria what happen to you?" I asked.

"I couldn't sleep last night."

"Did you and Ezra heat things up last night?" Hanna asked.

"Yes, but that's not the reason I couldn't sleep."

"Why couldn't you sleep last night?"

"Last night I was lying in bed and I was really tired, but I couldn't sleep. I don't know who sleeps in the rooms above us, but last night there was some wild couple going at it like animals."

"You mean on the boys floor?" Hanna asked.

"Yes!" Aria exclaimed. "There were these two people in the hotel room above us. I think it's two doors down from Toby and Noel's room."

"And you could hear the two having sex," Hanna said.

"Yes and they were loud, oh my god I've never heard a couple got at it like that."

"Who do you think it was?" Emily asked,

"I'm pretty sure they were a high school couple on this trip, but I don't know."

"Maybe it was Noel and some girl," Hanna said.

Aria shook her head. "I don't know who they were, but they sounded like they were trying to break the bed."

"Are Spencer and I the only ones that didn't hook up with somebody last night?" Emily asked.

I shrugged and said," yeah I guess so."

"I'm tired," Hanna said.

"Yeah me too," I said.

"What are we doing today?" Aria asked.

"We're taking a tour of the White House then we're going to the airport," Emily said.

"Yes we get to go home!" Hanna exclaimed. "I missed my bed."

"Yeah me too," I said. "We should probably head down stairs."

We got up from where we were sitting and walked down to the lobby. When we got there all the boys and most of the girls were already down here. They were just starting to load people on the bus. I turned my head and caught Toby talking to Noel about something. Noel was bragging about something while Toby stood there acting like he cared. This whole thing between Toby and I is crazy, but it's something we both agreed on. So what if we get together every once in awhile to have sex? Lots of people do it, so why not us?

Thanks for reading! What do you think will happen between Spencer and Toby? Will they be able to keep their relationship a secret or will people find out? Will they keep things causal or will feelings start to show? Review and tell me what you think.
