Toni- Thanks again. Which teacher/student story are you speaking of? Finishing this story is very important to me. I hate when a good story doesn't get an ending. It sucks. I know what you mean about writers quitting a story because of the lack of reviews...which is why I always review a story I am enjoying. It takes a lot of time and effort in writing a story..everyone should acknowledge that. Thank you once again for your support. :)

This is a short one guys..at least a short one compared to my usually long updates. Sorry. I should have another update for you by the end of the weekend.
I own nothing but my imagination. Miranda, Alyssa, Gram and baby Jack are mine too :)
Ashley's P.O.V.
"Gram, Ash and I are not going to talk about our sex life." Spencer was still shaking her head. I was just sitting there laughing eternally. I'm going to let Spence handle this.
"So you're saying there is one huh?" Gram replied with the eye brow wiggles again.
I couldn't contain my laughter anymore and let a giggle slip. Spencer looked over at me with a glare.
"Don't encourage her."
"It's okay Darlings. You don't have to say a word. I can see it on both of your faces. You're both glowing. Not to mention the lack of sexual tension that was so obvious last night."
"Okay Gram, we had sex. Can we change the subject now?" Spencer's face turned red. Too funny.
Gram nodded. "Miranda came by earlier with your dad. She's grown into a lovely gal."
"Yes she has. She reminds me a lot of her brother." Hmm. Spence never said anything like that before.
Gram must have noticed my slight discomfort. She changed the subject again.
"So when ya bustin' me outta this joint? I ain't eating anymore of this slop they call food. And this bed is harder than a teenage boy peeking in a girl's locker room." I put my hand over my mouth to help hold in the laughter. She did not just say that. Yes she did.
"Gram! What is with you today?" Spencer's face is red yet again. I am surprised it doesn't just stay that color.
"I'm bored Pumpkin. I've got nothing better to do than find ways to embarrass you." Poor Spencer.
"I can see that. We'll get you out of here soon. I promise."
"Fabulous. I've gotta get some gardening done."
"Actually Gram. I wanted to talk to you about that. Dad wants you to come stay with him at the house."
"Nonsense. I don't need a babysitter. I'm going home." I could see where Spencer got her stubbornness and independence from.
"Gram do you think that's the best idea?"
"Spencer Marie, you will take me home when we leave this hospital. Understand?" She nodded.
Spencer dropped me off at the house on the way to dropping Gram off. She didn't know how long it was going to take to get Gram settled in and she didn't want Miranda to be stuck at the house especially since her dad would be at work all day. Miranda was sitting on the couch watching T.V. when I walked in the house.
"Oh thank God. I have been bored out of my mind." She walked up to me and nearly squeezed the life out of me.
"Where's Spence?"
"She took Gram home."
"Oh I thought Gram was coming here?"
"She wasn't having it."
"She's so feisty. I love it."
"Yeah. She's something. She's amazing."
When we sat down on the couch Miranda turned and faced me. I knew what she wanted and she had the silliest grin on her face.
"Okay I will talk if you stop smiling at me like that." She chuckled.
"Okay, talk." She gave me her straight face.
I was about to but no words would come out. I just smiled my goofy, teenage girl in love, off in my own world, smile.
"That good huh?"
"What's with you and Gram? Yeah it was that good. I practically have no words for how good it was. Wow. Just Wow!"
"Wow?"
"Yep. Wow!"
For once in my life I was happy. So fucking happy and I wasn't scared. I wasn't scared that something bad was going to happen. Or that I was going to fuck it up. There was one thing I was worried about and that didn't have anything to do with my relationship with Spencer. That had to do with Alyssa. I thought about her all of the time. I felt bad for not being there with her right now. When I called to tell her I wasn't going to make it there this week she told me "Don't worry. I'm fine. Go get your girl."
When I called her earlier in the day she sounded good.
I didn't really believe in miracles but that didn't stop me from praying for one every day.
We sat on the couch and talked about Alyssa. Then we talked about her and Chris. They had been texting each other all night and she was missing him. Awe. I knew how that felt. I had spent 3 weeks away from Spencer and I was so miserable. Glen walked in about an hour later with baby Jack. He was carrying him in one of those baby backpacks on his back. He looked ridiculous and Jack looked too big for the backpack thingy.
"Well hello Ladies. Daddy's home." He winked at us and I made a gagging sound. "One of you wanna help me out?" I walked over and lifted Jack out of the pack and he smiled at me. I don't know what it was about this kid. I actually didn't mind holding him or talking to him or even singing to him. He was so adorable.
"So what are you two lovely ladies talking about?" He dropped his backpack and bags on the floor and plopped down on the couch.
"How amazing the sex with your sister was." I replied with a smirk while making funny faces at Jack.
"Ewe. Gross. So what's everyone doing tonight? I'm dropping Jack off at his mom's later. You guys wanna hang out?"
"Actually Spencer and I have plans. But Miranda here is free." She glared at me.
"What are you and Spence doing tonight?" Miranda asked.
"I am taking my gorgeous girlfriend out on a date." I said proudly.
"Oh Ash that's great. Finally you guys get your date. I'm so happy for you."
"Where are you taking her?" Glen asked grabbing Jack from me and planting a kiss on his forehead. He really did love that kid. It was kind of cute.
"Well that's where you come in handy. I need your help. I have no idea where to take her."
"No problem. I know the perfect place."
Glen and I talked for a little while. Miranda left us to call Chris. In that short time I learned some things about Spencer. Tonight was going to be amazing. I just had to make some calls.
Spencer got back around 5 and we left around 6 ish. Dinner was the first part of our date. Glen recommended a Mexican restaurant called El Charro's which had the best Mexican food around. Spencer was so happy. It was one of her favorite restaurants and she hadn't eaten there in years.
The first part of the date turned out great. Now on to the second part. Glen had told me a few stories about Spence and I had thought of the perfect idea. I just hoped Spencer liked the idea as much as I did.
"Ash this place has been closed for years."
We pulled up to the gate and suddenly two men were there opening it. I pulled through and of course the place was empty. I pulled into a parking spot furthest away from the big screen.
I got out of the car and walked over to her side. I opened the door and held my hand out. "Come with me."
She took my hand and I led her to the parking lot in front of us. I had a blanket laid out with some pillows, along with a brown bag and a cooler with cold drinks inside.
"Sit." I directed her to the blanket and sat next down next to her.
"Ash what are we doing here?" She was so confused.
"Patience my love." I caressed her cheek.
"What's with the fire pit?" She pointed towards the fire pit a few feet away from us.
"Part 2 of the surprise."
"What's part 1?" She was getting anxious. It was cute.
"I'll show you in a couple minutes but first I want to tell you a story." I turned towards her and reached for her hands which she gladly gave me.
She smiled at me and I started the story.
"So this is a short story about a little 7 year old girl who wanted nothing more than to see The Lion King at the local drive-in. She had never been to a drive-in and she was so excited when her dad told her he was going to take her there for her birthday. She talked about it for weeks and even slept with her little stuffed lion every night. Sadly , the night before they had planned to go see the movie she was rushed to the hospital. Her poor little appendix was about to burst and she had to have surgery to remove it. She spent the next few weeks in the hospital and no amount of ice cream, Jell-O, flowers, balloons or get well gifts could make up for her missing out on the movie that night. She cried nearly every day. To make matters worse, by the time she was released from the hospital the movie was no longer playing at the drive-in. The worst part was that she had to wait a couple months after that to see it when it finally came out on VHS. The little girl was heartbroken."
Spencer smiled softly through the tears that were slowly falling down her cheeks.
"And when I finally did see it, it just wasn't the same." She added with a quiet laugh.
"So you want to tell me what we are doing at this very much closed drive-in?"
"Are you ready for your first surprise?" She nodded.
I grabbed my phone and sent out a text. A couple seconds later the big screen lit up.
She turned towards the screen and her eyes went wide. She faced me in confusion.
"Tonight. Just for tonight. It's not closed."
I motioned with my head towards the screen and her eyes returned to it.
The Lion King was displayed in big orange letters.
Her eyes lit up. She turned to face me again with her hand over her mouth.
"No." She was in shock.
"Yes." I replied with a chuckle.
"How?"
"It pays to have a famous rock star dad and a very big bank account."
"Oh Ash , I can't believe this." And there go the tears again.
"You are so amazing. I love you." She leaned in and cupped my face before drawing me into a long passionate kiss.
"Thank you" She whispered on my lips.
"You're welcome."
"Oh, on to the next surprise." I got up from the blanket and moved to the fire pit. After lighting the fire I went to my bag and grabbed out the the Jiffy Pop popcorn tin. I set it on the grates just above the fire and it instantly started popping.
"You can't go to the drive-in and not have popcorn." She gave me her full on, gorgeous, perfect teeth smile. You know the one.
"You know what else you can't not do at a drive-in?" She pulled me down to the blanket and straddled me.
"What?" I knew what she was doing and I wasn't able to stop her even if I wanted to.
"This." She pressed her lips to mine. It was slow and heart fluttering and just amazing. Like every kiss I shared with her.
"Spence we can't watch the movie and make out too." I didn't want her to miss out on the movie once again.
She pulled back. Her lips parted, her eyes almost begging. How could I say no to her?
"Uh. I guess we can do both."
Eventually she settled into me. Her back against my front. A bowl of popcorn in her lap. Every now and then she would turn her head and kiss my cheek. This night was turning out exactly how I had wished. Perfect.
We stayed there for a while after the movie was over. Enjoying what was left of the fire and the beautiful star filled sky that we didn't have the pleasure of seeing in L.A.
"Spence, what's with you and Disney movies?" I asked turning towards her. We were lying side by side on our backs.
"I don't know. I just love them." She turned towards me and kissed my nose.
"Fairytales about prince and princess' and happy endings?"
"Exactly." She replied scooting closer to me. I pulled her into my arms and she nestled into my neck.
"I've got my own fairytale with you, My Prince."
I laughed. "I'm no Prince Spencer. Definitely not a Princess either."
"You're my Prince. My knight in shining armor, my Prince Eric, my Prince Phillip, my Prince Charming¸ my Prince..Beast, my Aladdin, my Flynn Rider, my .."
"Okay Okay I get it. Wait! Did you just call me your Beast?"
She giggled. "Yep. My beautiful, sexy, gentle Beast." She kissed me again and then rolled on top of me.
"You're my fairytale Ash. And I know we will have a happy ending. We'll live happily ever after until the day we die." I enjoyed seeing this side of Spencer. It made me wish I knew her as a little girl.
"But not for a veeery long time." I added.
"Nope. We'll be old and grey and wrinkly."
"And I bet you'll still be the most beautiful woman I know."
"And you'll still move me with your words."
We shared a loving smile.
"Will you still love me when my abs turn to flab?" I asked her with my sad face.
She chuckled and nodded. "I'll still love you."
"What about when my hair starts falling out and I get arthritis in my fingers and can't play the piano or guitar."
"I'll still love you." She said again.
"What about…" She covered my mouth with her hand.
"As long as this never changes.." She held her hand over my heart.
"I'll still love you."
And with that my heart melted... again.
We drove back to the condo in silence. A very comfortable silence. I texted Miranda and apologized for leaving her alone again. She said it was no big deal. She was at a bowling alley with Glen and some of his friends. I was a bit worried but when I mentioned it to Spencer she said she would be fine. Glen would take care of her.
We spent the entire night and the early morning re-discovering each other's bodies. Each time we made love it felt like the first time. Each time we would learn something new about one another. Every time I kissed her I knew those were the only lips I ever wanted to kiss again. Every time I touched her I knew I never wanted to touch another body again. And when I moaned out her name I knew it was the only name I ever wanted to leave my lips.
She fell asleep in my arms while I ran my fingers through her soft blonde hair. I adjusted myself so we were face to face. She was so beautiful when she slept. I know, so surprising. I kissed her nose.
"Spence?" She didn't answer.
"Spence?" She didn't answer again and I was sure she was asleep. I began to whisper to her even though I knew she couldn't hear me.
"I love you so much Spencer. I want to be with you forever. I know I'm young but I know what I want, and it's you. I want you. I want you to be my wife and I want to be yours. Marry me Spence." I was being silly but at the same time serious. I knew she couldn't hear me and she wouldn't respond but I needed to say it. To ask it. Even if it was just for myself.
Imagine my surprise when she whispered back. "Yes."
Review if you wish :)
