Emily's POV...
"God, Emily you're so beautiful, so breathtakingly beautiful."Spencer whispers smiling at me as she holds me in her arms. I feel safe in her arms, I feel at home. They say home is where the heart is and she has my heart, even if she doesn't know it. I feel a blush make its my across my cheeks at her words. If either one of us is beautiful then it's her, hands down. "You're also really cute when you blush."She says kissing the top of my head."We should get back, before Ben starts looking for you."
I dont really care if he found me out here in Spencer arms, laying on a lawn chair looking up at the stars. I don't want to leave her, the second I go back to Ben, my heart is going to ache to be with her again. I need to break up with him and I need to do it soon, I can't keep putting it off. it's only going to hurt the three of us more if I do.
Spencer untangles her legs from mine and sits us up, never once removing her arms from my waist. She sigh and let's go of me before standing up and helping me up. Spencer looks up to the full moon, then looks back at me smiling. "As much as i'd love to stay here with you, we should go." She says taking my hand in her's and leading me back to the front of the house.
She kisses me one more time before letting go of my hand and heading inside the house. I make my way in a minute later, sreaching for Ben. I find him where I left him, at the pool table with Sean. "Hey Baby, where did you run off too?"He ask coming over and kissing my cheek. It took everything in me not to pull away from him to keep his lips away from me.
"Went to get a drink, I ran into Hanna, I'm going to leave with the girls later, we're going to the Hastings lake house for the night."I say. The smile on his face falls and his eyes flash with anger.
"I don't want you around her Emily."He says his voice raising some, causing a few of the people around us to watch. Great he's going to make a scene in front of everyone.
"Ben we're not doing this right now."I whisper. "She kissed you, how do you just ignore that? She nothing but a slut Emily, she just wants to have sex with you then leave you, like you were just a quick fuck, like she has done to a lot of girls!"He yells causing more people to gather around us. Spencer is at my side the second he started yelling at me. "She's not a slut Ben and she wouldn't do that to me, you don't even know who she really is, you just see who she was in the past key word being the PAST, I'm getting sick of you trying to control me."
Spencer steps in between Ben and I, pushing him away from me. "This has nothing to do with you Hastings."He says pushing her into me. She turns to make sure I'm okay before turning back to him. "Has nothing to do with me? your standing here calling me a slut and it has nothing to do with me? You are lucky your dating Emily, because I would beat the hell out of you if you weren't"Spencer says getting into his face. Ben brings his arm back like he's going to punch her but is stopped when Sean steps in front of him.
"Ben what the hell? the Ben I know would never push or hit a girl, who the hell are you?" Sean ask. He's right, something has changed in him, he never yelled at me or got in my face before, and he never hit a girl.
"Fuck off Spencer, you too Sean."He says pushing pass them and coming to stand in front of me. "Come home with me Emily please, don't let her tear us apart."He begs. I look at Spencer, her eyes are begging me not to go with him, to stay with her, to let her protect me. "She's not tearing us apart you are, your the one starting a fight in front of half the school, your the one trying to control me, and bashing my best friend, your doing this not her."
I turn on my heels and start to walk away not giving him the chance to say anything else. I feel a rough hand grab my arm, keeping me from walking away. "Let her go Ben." I hear Blake say, coming to stand in front of us. Ben doesn't let go of my arm but pulls me into him instead. Spencer comes into view, her eyes on Ben, trying to figure out what he was going to do. Ben never sacred me till this moment, I don't know what he's going to do, I don't even know who he is anymore. I'm scared for my life, for what he might do to me. I never thought he'd hurt me but in this moment I wouldn't put it passed him. He's drunk I can smell the Jack on his shirt and on his breathe.
"Ben, this isn't you, just let her go your drunk."Sean says trying to get closer to us, without Ben freaking out. "Your only scaring Emily."Spencer whispers. He let's go of me apond hearing her words. The second I'm out of his hold, I'm in Spencer's arm. "Em, I'm so sorry, I don't know what came over me."Ben says stepping closer to me. Spencer pulls us back from him and Blake and Sean steps in front of him, keeping him from coming closer.
I can't handle this, I'm so scared of him I'm shaking. I can't stay with him after this. "Ben, we're through." I say, leaving the safety of Spencer's arm and walking out the house, with tears falling from my eyes. I can't help the tears that fall, I'm not even sure what I'm crying for, I just know it's making me feel better. I wish I would have never came to this party. I wish I would have stayed home, in my room where i'd be safe and none of this would have happened. Apart of me is happy I came, because the few mintues I was alone with Spencer meant the world to me.
"Emily, we just heard what happened are you okay?" Hanna ask running up to me. I walked to Spencer jeep after I left the house and was leaning on the hood crying when she came over. I look up to see Aria, Hanna and Marissa standing in front of me, worried expressions on their faces.I nod and look around for Spencer but she's not around. I really hope she's okay, I would go check but I can't face going back into that house.
"Em, why was he acting like that?"Aria ask. "He's drunk, mad I'm going to the lake house with y'all, he thought Spencer was tearing us apart when it was really him, he just freaked and grabbed me, I was so scared I thought he was going to hurt me."I whisper feeling the tears starting to fall again. Aria is the first to pull me into a hug, followed by Hanna and Marissa.
"I think it's about time you broke up with him, he's too controling and frankly he's an ass."Marissa states looking towards the house, where Spencer and Blake are walking our way. Spencer expression is grim while Blake is smiling, trying to get Spencer to smile as well. "Hey Babe, you missed all the fun."Blake says kissing Marissa's cheek. "I'm sure it wasn't fun for Emily."She replys giving him a quick kiss on the lips.
"Oh come on, Spencer was going to beat Ben ass, before he went all psycho, we all know that would have been funny to see."Blake says laughing as he comes to stand in front of me. He was right seeing Spencer beat Ben up would have been funny and totally hot. Blake pulls me into a hug, and my arms go around him instantly. This guy is a hugger, so unlike most guys. He doesnt hug you to feel you up, he hugs you to show he cares and that he's there for you. "He won't be messing with you anymore and if he does, just let me know i'll take care of him, I got your back Fields." He says pulling away from the hug, giving me a huge grin before pushing me towards Spencer. "Thank you for helping Blake." I say giving him a smile before looking at Spencer.
Blake reminds me of a guy version of Spencer, always knows the right thing to say, will protect you without a second thought, always has your back and is always there when you need a hug or someone to talk to. We werent very good friends before tonight. We only hung out a few times and that was usually at Spencer's and Marissa's Lacrosse games, but in one night he has easily become one of my best friends, someone I know I can count of no matter what.
"Are you hurt?" Spencer ask looking me up and down checking for any signs of injuries. Once she satisfied that there's no signs of injuries, she pulls me into her warm body. "I was so scared he was going to hurt you, all because of me."She whispers as I feel her tears hit my neck and soak into my shirt. "This was not because of you, do not blame yourself."I say pulling away to look at her. She bites her lip and looks down, making me want to kiss her, so I do.
I lift her head up to look at me and I bring her closer. I lean into her body and give her a soft kiss. She grabs my hips and pulls me closer before kissing me back. "Finally!" Hanna says from behind us, making Spencer smirk into the kiss but not pull away. This kiss is different from all the others we shared, this time we didn't have to hide, we didn't have to worry about Ben finding out, there would be no guilt afterwards.
We're free to kiss when and where ever we want. Now I just have to figure out when to tell my mom and how, I know she's going to freak out on me. So even after breaking up with Ben, we will still be a secret till I tell her. Guess we're not free to kiss when and where ever we want.
30 minutes later at the lake house...
Spencer's POV
"Come on Aria, help me turn the lights on, y'all stay out here till we get them on."I say leading Aria into the dark house, where Ezra is waiting inside. I unlock the door and hold it open for her to walk inside. "Spencer how the hell are we going to turn the lights on when we can't see anything?"She ask grabbing onto my arm as I make my way into the kitchen. "Aria I spent a lot of summers here, I know where everything is."I reply opening open the fuse box and switching everything on. The house lights up and Aria let's go of my arm, turning around to see Ezra standing in the doorway with a rose in his hand and a grin on his face.
"Oh my God!"Aria squeals happily running into Ezra's awaiting arms. Ezra has been gone for two months and Aria has been really depressed the past few days. So I called him up and we planned on surprising her with a perfect weekend on the lake with him.
I leave the room allowing them to have some alone time and make my way back outside to help bring in all our bags. Hanna and Marissa are carrying the bags up to the porch and leaving them at the steps. "We got them Spencey, go make sure Em is okay."Hanna says pointing towards the dock. "Are you sure?"I ask. Marissa nods and pushes me towards the dock.
At the party when Ben grabbed Emily, I was terrified of what he was going to do. If she wouldn't have broke up with him then I would have stayed away from her just to keep her safe. I'll protect no matter what, even if it hurts me to do so. If it ever came down to being right or protecting her, i'd be wrong every time, because that's just who I am, even though I love to be right and hate to be wrong.
I start the short walk to the dock. Emily is standing on the dock, skipping rocks across the lake. "Em? are you okay?" I ask, slowly walking over to her. She turns to me, a sad smile on her face.
"Spencer, how do I tell my mom?" She ask, eyes tearing up. "Baby you don't have to tell her, until your ready, I don't mind."
I know how hard it is to come out, I've been there and done that. My parents may not have freaked out like Emily's mom will but I know what it's like. It's scary as hell not knowing how people are going to react to that.
Coming out to my parents was one of the hardest things I ever had to do. I've always tried to make them proud of me and I thought they would be disapointed in me for being gay. My Mom and Melissa didn't care, they love me no matter what but my Dad freaked and didn't talk to me for months. Slowly things between us got better when he started to accept who I am but things arnt as good as I would like. We hardly talk even at family dinners but at least now he doesn't ignore me or bash me for being who I am anymore.
"I don't want to hide us Spencer, I want to be with you, I want to show the world you're mine and I'm yours." She says sitting down on the dock, lightly pulling me down with her. As soon as I'm sitting down, she moves so she's sitting in between my legs and her back is leaning into my front.
"You don't have to rush, I'm not going anywhere."I whisper into her ear, wrapping my arms around her slender frame.
"Your amazing you know that?"She ask, staring up at the moon. "Nowhere near as amazing as you are Baby."I whisper in her ear, causing her to shiver. She turns in my arms and smiles at me. "My heart skips a beat when you call me Baby."She says resting her head in the crook of my neck. I moan when she starts kissing my neck and nipping at it. I lay back on the dock, pulling her with me.
"Your going to leave a mark."I pant out as she bites down harder on my neck. She pulls back and smirks at me. "That's the point Spence."She says, her voice thick with lust. I quickly flip us over and hover over her. "It's not fair, I can't mark you as mine."I pout, causing her to giggle at me and roll her eyes. "Stop making out and come eat Ezra made food!"Hanna yells from the house causing the beautiful girl under to blush a bright red. I groan and stand up, helping Emily up as well.
"Nice hickey Spencer."Marissa laughs as we walk into the kitchen, making Emily blush more. She holds her hand up for a high five and I walk over to slap my hand with hers. "You two are worse than teenage boys."Aria says shaking her head at Marissa and I. I walk back over to Emily and put my arm around her waist, pulling her into me. "I love when you blush, it's so adorable."
Emily blushes more at my comment and hides her face in my side. "You two are cute together."Ezra says smiling at us.
Here with our friends, with people we trust with our lives, is a place Emily and I will never have to hide...
