Spencer's POV:

I'm sitting in my room doing my homework for the night but I just can't seem to concentrate on anything. I had to come straight home after school because it was family night, but I just couldn't get myself to focus. I just sat there the entire night and when it was finally over I decided to do my homework. Since I can't concentrate maybe I should try giving Ashley a call. She's definatly still awake, its only 10 pm and she stays us till at least midnight.

I grab my phone from my bedside table, and dial her phone number. As soon as it starts calling I hear her ring back tone, it's Check Yes Juliet by We The Kings.

"Hello?" I hear a groggy voice answer.

"Ashley? I'm sorry, did I wake you up? You never go to sleep before midnight." I immediately feel guilty for calling her.

"No its ok, I wasn't sleeping. I'm just tired, but not to tired to talk to you. What were you calling for?" To hear your voice because it's the only thing that helps me sleep.

"I…um….I wanted to tell you something….but I have to tell you in person. Can you come over maybe?" This is it I'm going to tell her the truth. I can't hide it anymore, no; I don't want to hide it anymore.

"Um yeah, I'm on my way. I'll be there in 5 minutes." She stutters

"Can you climb the tree like you usually do? My parents don't want my having guests right now, but this cant wait."

"Yeah, see you soon." She says and I hear a click, meaning she hung up and is on her way

Ok Spencer, you can do this. You can do this. All you have to do is tell her. She'll understand, there is no way she is going to end our friendship over this. Who knows, she might even feel the same way. Ok no, don't get that far ahead of yourself. It will be fine.

About five minutes later I head someone tapping on my window. I cross the room and open it as wide as it can go to let Ashley climb through. As she climbs through I realize what she is wearing. She had on a pair of grey sweat pants and a tight We The Kings shirt, with her hair messily pulled back. Even like this she is completely gorgeous.

"So Spencer, there was something you wanted to tell me?" Why does she look so nervous? Oh my god, what if she already knows. No there's no way she knows, I made sure not to let her find out.

"Yeah um, let's go sit down then we'll talk." I lead her to my bed and we sit cross legged facing each other. She looks at me and puts a hand on my knee urging me to talk. "OK so, we have been friends for a long time, and I would never want anything bad to come between us, but I have to tell you something. I don't know how you will react or feel about the information I am about to give you, but I need you to promise me that no matter what we will always be best friends."

"I promise. Nothing could ever make me not want to be your best friend. You are the best thing in my life, and nothing could change that." She says soothingly. Well its now or never, here we go.

"Ashley, I-I am in love with….you…" I look down and start fiddling with my hands and biting my bottom lip. It's been a good two minutes and she hasn't said anything. My bottom lip starts to quiver and I know the water works are on there way. "I'm sorry, I couldn't help it. I tried to stop it but I'm just so in love with you, and I couldn't help hide it anymore. Please don't hate me, please." I look up at her with tears running down my cheeks. Before I know it her lips are on mine, with her thumbs brushing away my tears. The kiss is slow and passionate, and that's all it needs to be right now.

"Spencer, I'm in love with you too. So much that it hurts sometimes." She says pecking me on the lips a few more times.

"Can you stay tonight? I just don't want to be alone tonight." I'm scared that if she leaves, I'll wake up and all of this would turn out to be a dream.

"Of course, I'll stay here with you always and forever." We lay back on my bed facing each other with her arms around me and me cuddling into her. I kiss her softly, we just lay there with our lips moving against each other slowly, never heating up or deepening. We end the kiss and I cuddle into her as far as I can. We slowly drift to sleep, knowing we will need our energy for when we talk tomorrow.

A/N: ok I know, I'm terrible. But I have a legitimate excuse. First I had finals and then when they were over I was intent on updating but my computer crashed. I just got it back yesterday and I knew I should update now. I hope you will still read and review :] And I hope this chapter helps make up for the delay. I was going to have Spencer tell Ashley late in the story but I decided to do it now. I will be updating more often now that its summer. Review please :] if you do I will send Spencer and Ashley to your house for a sexy party J
