You Have To Go There To Come Back

Chapter 3

Spencer's POV

I woke up that morning with the hugest smile on my face. I felt a strong arm around my waist and soft breath tickling the back of my neck as my girl breathed in and out. I lightly stroked her arm, delighting in the joy of waking up in her arms in our bed, in our room, in our loft (ok so ours and Kyla's but at least the bed and this room is all ours!). I so wanted to lie in bed with her all day but there was the pressing matter of my bladder to contend with so I carefully slipped from the bed, careful not to wake Ashley. She looked so peaceful, a big smile on her lips as she dreamed and I really hope she's dreaming of me.

I slipped my robe on over my nakedness and slipped out of our room to head to the bathroom. On my way back to bed I heard a key in the front door and turned to see Kyla slip in with her overnight bag. "Hey Kyla," I said, making her jump.

"Shit Spencer! I didn't see you there! What are you doing up so early?" Kyla said clutching a hand to her chest, probably trying to settle her heart race after the scare I gave her.

"I couldn't sleep, I think I was too excited, but I left sleeping beauty in dreamland. Ash can be pretty scary if she's woken up before noon." We both laughed and headed into the kitchen. Kyla flicked on the coffee maker, knowing as well as I do that Ashley wasn't entirely human in the mornings until she had her dose of caffeine. I sat down at the bench and gave Kyla a grateful smile when she placed a glass of juice in front of me and settled down beside me.

"Ky, thanks so much for letting me move in here with you guys it truly means so much to me." I said giving the younger Davies sister a warm smile.

"Hey no problem Roomie," she teased, "And you are totally doing me a favour, Ash is a total freak when you're not around, can't get any sense out of her at all. So at least now that you're here she can be a human rather than the pod person she is when you're gone."

"Hey! That is so not true!" we both turned at the indignant voice behind us and I beamed when I saw my girl standing there all mussed up from sleep. Ashley grinned goofily at me and walked to my side, laying a gentle kiss on my cheek she murmured, "Good morning beautiful."

I felt a love-sick, puppy-dog look cross my face as I said, "Good morning to you too. How did you sleep Baby?"

"Better than I ever have before, now that I have you here with me," Ashley crooned to me.

"Uh guys gross, you are cute that I think I'm getting nauseous," Kyla teased as she bounded off to her bedroom with her overnight bag.

Ashley laughed after her younger sister and moved to stand between my lags. She put her hands on my waist and I wrapped my arms around her neck. She leaned forward and rested her forehead against mine, staring deeply into my eyes. "So how are you feeling this morning Ms. Carlin?" She asked with a cheeky grin.

"Happier than I have ever felt Ms. Davies. I think it had something to do with waking up in the arms of this incredibly hot brunette," I bit my lip and looked adoringly into her warm mocha eyes. "Really? Sounds hot," she said with a smirk.

"Yeah it was, if you're lucky I might introduce you to her sometime," I teased, earning a playful punch in the arm and an indignant look. I laughed and got up to make her a coffee.

-----------------

So we had a blissful honeymoon period of three months. I was on my summer break before starting at UCLA and Ashley was waiting for Madison to come back from touring with Justin Timberlake so they could get in the studio and get Madison's debut album underway. Ash did a little bit of writing but for the most part it was just us. We spent the summer at the beach, and getting to know each other in ways I had never dreamed of. We spent long nights talking and building an intimacy that was so much more than just physical. We had picnics, went on walks, went dancing, shopping out for meals. Ashley wanted to show me every place she had discovered in L.A. and seeing as she'd live there her whole life we had a lot of places to cover.

Living with her was perfect, us together was perfect. We rarely fought and when we did all it took was for one of us (usually Ash) to do something goofy and we'd both be laughing, forgetting whatever it was that we had been upset about.

Life was easy and comfortable. Ash was attentive and affectionate. She was always surprising me with little gifts or romantic gestures. She made me feel special, loved and adored. We fell easily into a domestic routine, easily adapting to living together. I've heard so many horror stories about what happens when couples move in together but it wasn't like that with us. We worked. That summer will go down as the best one I have ever had. Those three months were filled with so much joy and love.

But like they say all good things must come to an end. The honeymoon had to end sometime. The time came for us to leave our blissful summer behind and step into the real world of college and work and all that jazz. But I wasn't worried. Our love was so strong and had weathered so much, a little dose of reality couldn't shake it, could it?

Ashley's POV

So tomorrow, tomorrow this truly incredible summer comes to an end. Spencer start's her first year at UCLA and I head into the studio to begin working with Madison and Ethan on her debut album. She's talented sure but she's still Madison so this is going to be a trying job for me to do. She better not fuck up my songs, especially 'Dirty Mind' which is planned as the first single. That song is more important to me than any I have written before, I wrote it for Spencer and if she fucks it up I will not be responsible for my actions.

I'm sitting on the sofa, guitar on my lap, watching Spencer tie herself up in knots of anxiety about her first day of college. I have to say a nervous Spencer, wringing her hands and frowning is kinda cute. Despite the cuteness I take pity on my girl, "Baby can I help you with something?"

Spencer jumped at the sound of my voice and I had to stifle a giggle, she gave me a grateful smile and said, "I think I'm ok Sweetheart I'm just nervous you know."

"Yeah I know, but Spence you're going to be great and I am so proud of you." I laid down my guitar as she wandered towards me, "Thank you Ash, I couldn't do this without you."

"Actually I'm sure you could do this without me, but I have a feeling it wouldn't be as interesting." I reached out and grasped her hips, swiftly pulling her down onto my lap. She squealed in surprise before settling her body down on top of mine, moving to lie fully against me. I felt her lips on my neck and eagerly titled my head to give her better access. Her lips made their way up to my ear and she whispered, "Don't think I don't know what you're doing."

"What?" I asked somewhat breathlessly.

"Distracting me so I won't feel nervous," she whispered her breath tickling my neck and sending thrills of pleasure threw my body.

"Is it working?" I asked with a smirk.

"Not really, I think you might have to try harder," she said with a note of challenge in her voice. Well I am always up for a challenge so I began moving my hands up her back, pulling her body as close to mine as I could get it, while at the same time I ran a line of kisses down her neck, stopping every now and then to nibble and lick and pretty much do anything in my power to drive her crazy. By the moans and gasps escaping her lips it was working.

I slid my hands down to her waist and slipped them under her tank top. As I moved my hands upwards I took her top with me, loving the feeling of her smooth skin and muscles contracting under my fingers. She raised her arms so I could get her top off and made quick work of the buttons on my vest, pulling it open before she lowered her body back against mine. I groaned at the feeling of hot skin on hot skin and slid her bra strap down her arm so I could attack her shoulder with my lips, tongue and teeth. Spencer moaned and bucked her hips against mine, trying to get a greater contact against me. I reached down and started undoing her jeans when I heard the front door slam and Kyla shriek, "Jesus guys! Just once I'd like to come home without scenes from 'Wild Things' being acted out on the couch!" Spencer ducked her head into my shoulder and I could see the blush creeping its ways up her face.

"Are you kidding Ky? If this is what it's like living here you should charge admission!" That would be Aiden, he can be such a pig sometimes.

I look over to them, Kyla is standing glaring at Aiden and he is looking like a little boy getting told off while rubbing his arm. I'm guessing Kyla thumped him one, good for her! I'm actually not sure what I ever really saw in Aiden, I mean as a friend he is ace and has been a big help for me and Spencer (when he wasn't tearing us apart) but other than that he is a bit of a tool and really can we talk about the muscles? His body is so big it makes his head look tiny!

Spencer detangled herself from me and rose to her feet, grabbing her top from where it hung on the lampshade and quickly pulling it on. I noticed Aiden staring at my girl and threw the nearest object at him. Unfortunately it was a crystal vase and I missed him, making it shatter against the wall. Everyone jumped and looked at me like I was a bit of a crazy. "Um ah sorry, but Aiden if I ever catch you drooling over my girl like that again I won't miss." Kyla turned her furious gaze back to her boyfriend and punched him again. Spencer tried, unsuccessfully I might add, to stifle a giggle.

"I'm sorry Kyla, it won't happen again," Spencer apologised for our earlier compromising position. Kyla gave her a disbelieving smile before bursting out into hysterical laughter, "Shit Spencer not even I'm naïve enough to believe that crap!"

Spencer blushed again and I had to join in the laughter. Before long my beautiful blonde gave in and laughed along with the rest of us. After the laughter had died down Spencer and I excused ourselves to go to bed, claiming an early start in the morning. Aiden and Kyla rolled their eyes and fixed us with looks that clearly said they weren't buying it before snuggling up on the sofa in front of the T.V.

I dragged Spencer into our room and pushed her back onto the bed. She scooted up to lie her head against the pillows and then beckoned me with her finger, a rather seductive grin on her gorgeous face. I didn't need to be told twice, I leapt onto the bed and quickly settled myself over her, relishing the feeling of her body beneath mine.

Spencer giggled at my eagerness, but I didn't care. I leaned down and captured her lips in a rough kiss, full of desire and want. I wanted her, no I needed her. Tomorrow was going to mean a change for us and for tonight I just wanted to be with my girl.

Spencer kissed me back with as much, if not more force and undid my vest before pushing it back off my shoulders and down off my arms. I made quick work of the tank-top I'd already taken off her once that day and started on her jeans. My skirt was undone and slid down my hips before I'd even got her zip down. We were frantic that night, clothes went flying all over the place in our desperation to feel our skin against each other. Once the clothes barrier was gone we lay against each other, stroking and teasing while enjoying the sensation of our naked bodies pressed against each other.

There is nothing quite like feeling Spencer's body against mine as we are both aching and writhing towards the edge. I have never been with someone who affects me the way she does. Being with Spencer is hot, sensual, passionate, and did I say hot? But it's also tender, loving and safe. Being with her is almost spiritual, I mean I'm not a fan of the whole God thing but Spencer is my Goddess and being in her arms, feeling her body, her hands and her mouth moving against me…well this is my heaven.

Her hands were all over me, making me feel like I was floating. I couldn't help the groans that were ripped from my lips, she is incredible. I explored her throat and chest with my tongue and fell helplessly in love with the whimpers that were coming from the back of her throat, which became a growl when my mouth reached her breasts. I love it when my baby growls.

It wasn't long before we were both lost in a sea of pleasure as we moved together towards the edge. I couldn't think or be aware of anything other than the vision beneath me. I moved against her and felt her hips buck into mine. I love making love to her and when she makes love to me, but I love it most when we make love together.

Our movements increased as we strained against one another. I can feel her getting close so I increased my movements and leaned down next to her ear so I could whisper, "Come with me Baby." I felt her muscles start to contract under me and I know I'm not far off myself. Our movements became fiercer as the sensations walked the fine line between pleasure and pain. Spencer threw her head back, her throat arched up towards me. I took that as an invitation and buried my face against her neck, loving the feeling of the vibrations as she moaned and gasped. I thrust harder against her and felt her head come forward. She bit down on my shoulder as she came, muffling her scream. That was all I needed. Feeling her come like that sent me spiraling over the edge.

I held her close as our bodies trembled and shook, stroking her gently to bring her back down to earth. I whispered, "I love you," over and over again as I kissed her sweaty forehead. She smiled up at me and I saw more love in that smile than any one else could ever bestow on me in a lifetime. I moved to lie at her side, cradling her body tightly against mine as we drifted off to sleep.

The last thing I was aware off before sleep overcame me was my Baby kissing my neck and murmuring, "I am so in love with you."

Just a warning to all who read this story, drama is just around the corner…
