This is indeed the final chapter of gravity. my wife and I, really hope you enjoyed it. :)


It's four-twenty-five in the morning and I cannot force myself to go back to sleep.

I don't know why I'm so excited about Christmas.

Ashley isn't here.

Sigh.

It would be so much better if she was here.

Ashley makes everything better.

Oh My God!

Could you imagine a world without Ashley in it?

Horrific!

"Spence you up?" Glen asks, peeking his head into my room.

"Yeah, why are you?" I ask him as he comes and sits down on my bed. Glen's seventeen almost eighteen. He should not be this excited about Christmas where he can't sleep.

Granted neither should I, but that's besides the point.

"Couldn't sleep." He says and lays down beside me.

"Ew Glen, you stink." I tell him and push him off the bed.

"Yeah, I kinda got in late and didn't have time shower after my basketball game." He says.

"So you decide to come and lay on my nice clean sheets?"

"I'm gonna go shower." He says with a smile, thumbing a finger towards his room.

"You do that." I tell my brother, I can't help but smile at him.

It is now five-twenty-seven. I can tell that no one is up still but I seriously can't lay in this bed anymore.

I get up and freshen up then head downstairs. I make a pot of coffee and spread some cream cheese on a bagel and head into the living room to watch T.V.

Ooooo. A Christmas Story is on.

Yay!

This has to be my favorite holiday movie of all time.

Seriously...who doesn't love this movie?

The Grinch...the cartoon, not the one with Jim Carey would have to be my second favorite.

"Coffee's fresh." I tell Glen when I hear him come down the stairs ten minutes later.

"Thanks." He says and heads into the kitchen. "I got you something." He says when he comes intot the living room.

"What?" I ask, raising a brow and him cause I didn't get him anything.

Oops.

"It's nothing special. Just something I thought you may need." He tells me placing his cup of coffee on the table and reaching under the couch for a wrapped box.

Really?

That was there this whole time and I didn't even know.

He hands me the box and I waste no time ripping it open.

What?

I love presents.

I guess Glen found it pretty funny too, cause he's chuckling at me right now.

"Wow." I say once I get the contents of the box out. "Glen I..."

"It was no big deal. Don't turn into a girl on me." He says and laughs, picking up his coffee cup and taking a sip.

"Glen this is amazing thank you." I tell him and give him a hug.

"No problem." He shrugs.

"I didn't get you anything." I tell him timidly. Cause now I feel bad.

"It's cool. I got everything I need." Is all he says before we both go back to watch the movie.

"Hello, children." My mom and dad say as they come down the stairs.

It's past seven now.

Who sleeps in on Christmas?

"Hello, parents." Glen and I say in unison.

"I made that coffee a couple of hours ago. I can make a fresh pot if-"

"No." My mom says. "I can do it. Watch the Grinch." She says and I can hear the smile in her voice.

She knows this is a tradition of ours.

My phone buzzes on the table and I look down and see it's Frankie.

"What do you want Frankie and why are you calling me so early?" I ask her and I can hear her smirking through the phone.

"Don't pretend like you don't like hearing my voice this early, Carlin." Frankie says.

"Right. What do you want?" I ask her in a playful tone.

"I wanted to know your plans today."

"Seriously, Frankie. It's Christmas. What do you think I'm doing?"

"Soooo, is that an invitation?" She asks and I can't help but smile.

Did you hear me invite her at any point just now?

"No." I reply.

"Oh." She says and oddly I can tell she's disappointed.

"Frankie, are your parents home?"

"Nope. They're in Cozumel."

Wow. Her parent's couldn't even spend Christmas with their own daughter. I'm starting to get why Frankie acts the way she does.

"You wanna come to dinner at my house Frank?" I ask her.

"Sure, if you insist, Carlin." She says in her normal Frankie voice.

"Alright. Be here at four."

"Alrighty." She says cheerfully and we hang up.

I text Madison to see what time she's coming over.

'I'm at your front door bitch.' Is her reply.

What the fuck?

It's too early for these hoes.

I get up and go to the door.

"Hoes hoes and hoes, merry Christmas." Madison says walking into the house.

"Madison!" My mom scolds her from the kitchen. Jade and I laugh at her.

"You could've warned me that the rents were up." Madison says shaking her head at me.

"I don't believe this hoe, had a chance." I whisper to my friend who rolls her eyes at me as her girlfriend snickers beside her.

"Here." Madison says handing me a wrapped box.

"Why thank you." I tell my friend sarcastically as I open the box.

We're all in the living room now opening presents. After my mom cooked breakfast we decided to open our gifts.

"What is it?" I ask her.

"Why don't you just open it and find out." She says through a sigh and shakes her head at me. I give Jade a look and she just smiles at me.

I guess Madison didn't get any Christmas loving this morning so she's a bit crabby.

I tear into the box and see it's the L Word box set.

"Oh my God! Thanks! I'm gonna be super gay with this!"

"No problem." Jade says.

I look at her like why are you accepting my thank you.

"It's from the both of us." Jade says and the way she said it makes me think that she wanted to end that with the word "Bitch." but couldn't since were sitting right in font of my parents.

"Here guys." I hand Jade a card "It's for both of you."

Insert evil laugh here.

Jade pulls out the gift card and instantly turns red.

"What is it babe?" Madison asks as she leans over. She coughs once she saw it.

Hehehehe

I got them a gift card to Babe Land.

"Well what is it?" My mom asks

"Ummm..." Both Madison and Jade say and cringe.

I don't know why I feel so good about myself right now.

"Well..." My mother asks again.

"It's nothing." Madison shakes her head and stuffs the gift card in her purse.

"What's that?" Jade asks my mom, clearing her throat trying to change the subject. I stifle a laugh.

"This one is from me and your dad." My mom says, handing me a small box. I shake it but don't hear anything.

I open the box and see a card with a picture of a bed on it. I take it out from the box and look at the picture of a bed. What the fuck? This wasn't on my list and I know I've been a good girl. I look up at my parents and they're both smiling at me. Well now I feel like a brat. "Um, thanks?" I didn't mean to end that with a question mark.

"It'll be here after the holidays." My mom says with a big smile. I can almost see a twinkle in her eyes.

Yup asshole here.

I politely put the picture of the bed back in the box and place it next to me.

When inside I just wanna throw the biggest fit in the world.

I don't wanna seem ungrateful or anything.

When I look up I see my parents still looking at me like they just got me the best present in the word.

Crazy parents.

"Here." I hand my mom a card. "It's for both of you guys."

"Aw, thanks Spencer. You know me and your father love this place." My mom says reading over the two hundred-dollar gift card to Bottega Louie.

"You're welcome.." See, I think my gifts through I don't get someone a random ass gift like a bed but hey tis the season and shit. "I know it's your anniversary soon so.."

"Thanks Spence." My dad says looking at the gift card I got them. "Glen, what did you get us?" My dad asks knowing Glen didn't get them anything.

"It's from both of us. Glen didn't get to sign the card." I answer for my brother.

It's the least I can do.

He got me the best gift in the world.

And I can tell you it's not a fucking bed.

Guys, they got me a bed like really though? A bed?

"Are my kids getting along? Why this is Christmas." My mom says sarcastically while everyone laughs. "What did you get your sister Glen? Since she covered for you."

Why do parents always know?

Is it in their genes?

Or is it once a you shoot out a baby you get super powers?

If so sign me the fuck up!

"I got my sister the best gift of all time. I mean it's not as great as let me see..." Glen pretends to think. "..a bed or anything."

Oh my bother the asshole.

I love him.

We all laugh at Glen even my parents are laughing even though I can see my mom shaking her head at her crazy son.

"He got me tickets to see Ashley!" I say practically shooting up in my seat.

"Wow!" I hear Madison and Jade say.

"I know right!" I tell them, still in shock. "Best brother ever!" I give Glen a one arm hug as he smiles proudly.

Shit, he should be proud.

I wonder if he's gonna hold this over my head.

I mean he is Glen.

I look at my parents waiting for their reaction and they're both sitting there in shock.

"Crazy right!" I say breaking them out of their daze. "Who knew my brother had that kind of money"

I see my mom shifting in her seat and my dad suddenly finding the gift card very interesting.

"That was really cool of you, Glen." I hear Madison say. But my attention is on my parents. They don't seem too thrilled about Glen's gift.

"You know, just living up to my best big bro status." Glen replies.

"Mom, dad?" I question them. They still haven't said anything.

"I'm gonna go start dinner." My mom says suddenly and stands up.

"I'm gonna help." My dad says, following her into the kitchen.

"What was that all about?" I turn to Glen and asks.

"Hell if I know." He shrugs. "I'm gonna go hoop. Tell mom and dad I'll be back in time for dinner." He says and leaves.

"Your parents were super weird just now." Madison says in a whisper.

"I know." I nod. "You think they're gonna tell me I can't go?" I ask and Madison just shrugs.

"When are you leaving?" Jade asks and I look down at the tickets and see they're for New Years Eve at ten.

"The thirty-first." I tell them and they just nod and smile.

"That was super cool of Glen." Jade says.

It really was.

"I know." I smile. "Oh." I say standing up from the couch to grab the remote and change the channel. "I invited Frankie over for dinner." I tell them and Madison gives me a look.

"Spencer why would you-"

"Calm down Spashley shipper. I only invited her because her parents are out of town as usual and I thought it would be cruel to leave her home alone on Christmas."

"Right." Madison says rolling her eyes.

She seriously thinks Frankie has ulterior motives. Frankie and I have discussed this already. She knows what's up.

"I don't have to explain my actions to you whore." I tell my friend and turn back to the TV.

My phone starts buzzing on the table and I see it's Ashley calling.

Yay, Ashley!

"Merry Christmas." I answer the phone and get up to walk down the hall.

These hoes are nosy.

I need some kinda privacy.

"Merry Christmas baby!" She replies. Oh how I have missed her voice so much.

"Got lots of presents?" I ask her as I stop in the hallway by the laundry room. Who does laundry on Christmas?

Only Paula.

"Baaaaby. You're so lazy. It's Christmas. You were supposed to get up at some ridiculous hour and sneak downstairs to see what presents you have." I tell her in my best cute voice. I hear her giggle at me.

Cue pout.

If only she could see me, I'm sure she'd kiss it away.

Sigh.

I miss my girlfriend.

Anyone else depressed here?

Raise your hand.

"Maybe when I was ten." She says through giggles.

"We'll I've been up since like five a.m. I've gotten lots of presents too." I tell her suddenly perking up. Remembering the best gift ever that Glen got me.

"Can you tell me all about them later baby? I probably should go make an appearance." She tells me and here comes that pout again.

"Boooo, don't leave me." I whine. I really wanna tell her about this gift.

"I promise to call you back later." She tells me and I know she's smile.

Fine.

Leave me.

Forever alone.

Sigh.

"Okay. I love you." I tell her.

"Bitch why you run away from us?" Madison asks from the end of the hall.

See what I mean?

Absolutely no privacy.

"Tell Madison I said hi and I love you more Spence." Ashley says to me then hangs up.

That conversation was not nearly long enough.

It's Christmas... come on Santa Clause do your damn job!

"Thank you for interrupting my conversation with my wife." I tell my friend as I walk past her.

"Oh. I thought it was Frankie." Madison shrugs and follows behind me.

Really?

"Wow a pipe? Nice!" Taylor says admiring the gift I got her.

See I'm a thoughtful motherfucker.

I'm clearly still not over the bed my parents got me.

We're up in my room now.

Taylor and Gabby stopped by to drop off their gifts and my mom invited them to stay longer.

They got me a pair of headphones.

Expensive ones too.

What's with couples giving me one gift?

What part of the game is that?

And I know I gave one gift to Madison and Jade but that's different.

That's them and I'm me.

I got Gabby a gift card to Starbucks and Barnes and Noble.

"Hey bitches!" Frankie says bursting in the room. "What'd you hoes get me?"

"Our friendship." Madison says.

"Here." Taylor throws her a bag of weed.

Lames.

"I invited you to eat." I tell her

"Oh?" She says with a smirk.

"Don't even go there." I say laughing.

I can almost feel Madison glaring at us.

"How can I not?" She says. "Merry Christmas guys."

...and there's the Frankie I know.

The nice Frankie.

Everyone knows the Horny Frankie.

"What you get us?" Gabby asks.

"Um, you bitches have been drinking my liquor and going to my parties. You hoes good for the year." She says sitting on my bed.

"Thanks for dinner Mrs. Carlin." Frankie says fixing herself up another plate.

"Wow fat ass!" I say and Frankie blushes.

Aww.

"What? I'm hungry." She says rolling her eyes.

"You're welcome Frankie." My mom says as she passes by her.

Yeah, everyone's been done eating.

Frankie's the only one still shoveling food in her mouth.

"Make sure to take some of this food home okay." My dad says heading to the kitchen.

"Thanks!" Frankie says.

"Jeez, you act like you don't eat." Jade says cuddling up to Madison.

"Oh I eat." She says looking up from her plate. "I eat very well." she finishes it off with a wink and continues eating.

We laugh of course even though we all knew that was coming.

"So, New Years. Let's talk about it." Taylor brings up the subject.

We usually just hang out at Jade's house.

Just us couples.

Fuck, this is depressing.

You're suppose to be with the one you love on New Years so when the ball drops you can make out.

Fuck my life!

"How about I make everyone's lives easy and just have the party at my house." Frankie volunteers

"What is this I hear about a party?" My mom suddenly pops out outta nowhere.

"Frankie's having a New Years Eve party. I can go right?" I ask.

"Of course Spence." My mom says.

Shit she better say yes.

I mean she did get me a bed for Christmas.

"Madison, can you help me in the kitchen?"

The way my mom said that made me give her a double take.

Something about it...

"Sure." Madison says eying me ask if she's asking me 'what the fuck.'

I know Mads, I'm right there with ya!

"Yeah, just show up. I'll have everything covered."

"Don't you always." Gabby says and playfully rolls her eyes at our friend.

"Don't act like you don't like my parties." Frankie says quirking a brow.

"Can you make sure there's good weed there." Taylor says leaning over close to Frankie so my parents won't hear.

"Taylor I'm really starting to think you have a problem." I tell my friend.

"I concur." Frankie agrees with me.

"I'm gonna be high as a kite everyday until the last show of the Spring play." Taylor says and shrugs.

"Yes. I will make sure." Frankie says through a chuckle.

"Madison what's up?" I ask her as she comes back in the room.

"Oh, um...nothing." She shakes her head. "Jade can I talk to you for a sec?" She asks her girlfriend.

Really?

What the fucks going on here?

"Um, yeah." Jade says just as confused as me. Her and Madison walk somewhere down the hall and all our friends stare at them confused too.

What would my mom need to talk about to Madison that she would in turn need to talk to Jade about?

Hmmm...

This is some secretive spy type shit.

I don't like it.

"Anyways." Frankie says drawling the word out. "Be at my house around seven the New Years Eve. We'll have a little pre-party before the party." She says getting up from the couch.

"You leaving?" I ask her.

"Yeah. You wanna come with?" She asks quirking a brow. "I got an empty house all to myself." She smirks.

"I think I'll pass." I tell her but I can't help but shake my head and laugh at her.

"Your loss." She shrugs.

"Yeah, we're gonna head out too." Taylor says standing up.

"Tell your parents thanks for the dinner it was lovely." Gabby smiles and hugs me.

"Later Carlin." Frankie gives me a hug and kisses my neck as she pulls back, smirking of course.

"Bye guys." I tell my friends they all leave.

"We're gonna go, Spence." Madison says coming from around the corner.

"Okaaaay?" I form it like a question cause really what I'm asking is what the fuck is going on.

"Call you later." Madison says and they both hug me and hurriedly leave out the front door.

Riiiiight okay...

That wasn't suspicious at all.

I'm up in my room now.

My parents went to bed and Glen left to go hang out somewhere.

I'm on the phone with my Ashley telling her about my day.

"Baby my parents got me a bed. I still don't know what to make it of it." I tell my girlfriend's cute self on Face Time.

Her face is so cute I just wanna sit on it.

"Spencer!" Ashley says laughing breaking me out of my daze. "Where did you go just now?"

"On your face." I mumble quickly knowing she probably didn't catch it.

"You're such a perv. You don't give it a break huh?"

"Why should I? I'm so fucking horny! I can't even function." I say seriously.

You ever been so horny that... never mind.

"Stop." Ashley warns me.

"Ugh!" I yell into my bed. "Oh my God! Guess what Glen got me!" I swear you can actually hear the exclamation points at the end of my sentence.

"What?" Ashley says with the same excitement.

"My dear brother got a ticket to see you! Ahh!" I practically scream into the phone. I see Ashley widen her eyes surprised too. "I know right! Ahhh! I'm gonna be there on New Years Eve! Ahh! Baby where gonna be together on New Years Eve!"

You can almost hear my tone in all caps.

Wait a minute!

"Why are you not excited about this?" I ask my girlfriend.

"I am." She says but to me it sounds kind of forced.

"Um... okay. It is okay if I go there right? Do I need to talk to your mom?" I ask slightly worried and concerned about why this bitch is not as excited as me.

I don't wanna have to curse my girlfriend out on the holidays but I will if she doesn't act enthused in about three seconds.

"Wait! No! That's great baby! Sorry I'm just shocked that's all. Who knew Glen had that money stashed around somewhere." Ashley says.

...now there's my girlfriend.

She probably knew I was about to curse her out and read her her rights.

"Right? That's what I said!"

We share a laugh.

"I miss you." Ashley says sighing.

"I miss you more baby."

I can feel us about to go into a depressing mood.

"So, I told my parents about Glenny's gift and they were acting so weird."

"Oh shut up." She says laughing cutting me off before I can go in complete paranoid mode. "I can feel your suspicious ass all the way from here. Calm it down Harriet the Spy. They were just probably as shocked as me."

"Don't be knowing."

This creepy bitch.

"Well I do know so.." She says with a shrug.

"Shrug at me again and I'm reaching into the phone and choking you."

"Is that suppose to be a threat or..."

"Do it and find out." I say daring her.

"I can't wait to see you." Ashley says smiling wide with her nose crinkling and shit.

"I know baby. Soon though. Oh!" I say suddenly. "I'm gonna miss Frankie's party on New Years. I gotta tell her tomorrow. Something else weird happen I'm just now remembering."

"What is it now?" Ashley asks stifling a laugh.

I playfully glare at her and she dramatically stops.

"At dinner my mom randomly asked to speak to Madison, and when Madison came back she was acting all...different."

What the fuck is up with people today?

Am I reading in to this too much?

"Yes, you're reading into this too much." She says laughing.

"Blah." I say laughing along with my girlfriend and sticking my tongue out.

"Mmmm, I do miss that tongue." Ashley says in that voice.

That voice that has a direct line to my pussy.

My pussy that just tingled at the mere tone of Ashley's voice.

"...and I'm the horny one?" I ask raising my eyebrow.

"Yes. Sorry to cut this short but I gotta get up early tomorrow. My dad has this thing at the base."

"Oh you make me wet and you leave? Really?" I ask only a tad bit serious.

"Sorry, I promise I'll make up for it." She says licking her lips.

"That doesn't help." I say closing my eyes and seeing flashes of me and Ashley in the middle of sex.

Jesus I need to fuck.

Wait I shouldn't say Jesus and then follow it up by the word fuck right?

"Ook, since you're busy talking to yourself I'm gonna go okay baby."

"Don't leave me."

"Goodnight baby I love you." She says shaking her head at my failing attempt to keep her on the phone.

"Sigh, I love you more night."

It's New Years Eve and we're at Frankie's house at the pre-party. I tried to not come all together but Madison wasn't having it. Which is weird considering she doesn't really like Frankie and I hanging around each other often.

But she insisted that I came here and because I'm leaving in a few hours for a whole week I decided 'why the hell not?'

"Why do you keep checking your phone?" I ask Madison who looks at me and shakes her head quickly before walking off.

"What time is your flight again?" Jade asks me for like the fifth time.

"Ten."

"What time do you need to be at the airport?"

"Nine maybe." I shrug.

"Okay." Jade says and walks over to where Madison is.

See, weird shit.

"You're leaving me for a whole week, Carlin?" Frankie comes up behind me and whispers in my ear. I spin around and push her back lightly.

I really don't need her this close to me.

"Yeah." I nod and take a sip of my drink.

"Whatever shall I do without you?" She asks, leaning closer to me.

"I'm sure you'll figure it out." I tell her with a smile and sit down on the couch.

"Motherfucker's I'm ill!" We here Taylor yell as she comes into the basement.

"Seriously?" Gabby looks over at her girlfriend and asks, Taylor just shrugs and we all laugh at her.

"Spencer, Spencer, Spence-saaaaaaaah!" Taylor says coming and hugging me.

"How are you drunk already and you just got here?" I step back from the hug and ask my friend.

"Bitch I'm high. Get it riiiight!" She tells me snapping her fingers and rolling her neck at me.

Wow.

Taylor...

"Hey Spencer." Gabby says giving me a hug and giggling at her girlfriend who is now talking to Frankie. Probably about weed.

"Hey. How do you put up with her?" I ask, thumbing a finger in Taylor's direction.

Gabby shrugs before answering, "It took years of practice. What can I say the bitch really grew on me." She says with a smile as she looking lovingly at her girlfriend.

A few more hours and I can look at my girl like that.

"What are we waiting for? Let's starting drinking in this bitch!"

Surprisingly that came from Jade.

"Let's take some shots! Shots! Shots! Shots!" Frankie sings.

Mind you that's not even the song that's playing right now.

We all make our way to the bar and she lines up two rows of shot glasses then proceeds to pour Patron in it. "Happy New Years heffas!" Frankie yells over the music.

We all clink glasses and take our shots one after the other.

It's okay if I get on the plane drunk right?

I'm going to go head and say yes cause I'm already fixing myself a cup of Malibu.

Yes, a cup of Malibu straight.

I would usually go straight to Crown but let's not mix dark and white liquor.

"Let's go dance!" Madison yells.

Great she's drunk and she's suppose to take me home.

I tried to pace myself while we were pre-gaming but its New Years Eve you're suppose to be drunk the whole day.

I'm getting ratchet to Crime Mob and in an instant it switches to Ginuwine's So Anxious and my friends are nowhere to be found.

I felt someone grab me by the waist and when I look its Frankie, of course.

"Later. I'm gonna sit this one out." I tell her and her response was to roll her eyes.

Well fuck you too bitch.

I drink the rest of the liquor in my cup as I walk back to the bar.

I grab a water bottle and threw it back in the cooler and made my self another glass of Malibu.

Fuck it.

Hehehe

I check my phone and I see no messages from my boothang.

I quickly text her that I love her and I can't wait to see her.

I stare at my phone willing her to text me back but she didn't.

Boo her right now.

Where the hell did my friends go? I ask myself looking around as the song changes to Avant's read your mind.

Who the fuck is this DJ cause he is playing all my shit right now.

"I stepped in the club in your hood, I slowly turned left and there you stood. You and your friends talking. But when I eyes connect I knew then. It was just like two ways on beam. I'm your king, be my queen. And what do you want to do tonight. My truck is parked out front, so lets ride." I sing along with Avant as my friends finally come into view.

Where the fuck have they been?

I get up to go confront them when Frankie steps in front of me.

"Let's dance." She says pulling me to the dance floor.

Well damn.

"So baby take a ride with me, And I'll fulfill all your fantasies. And when the rain starts pouring down. Then all the love that's lost will be found. I'll make your mind lose control. Over your body, that's my goal. So baby just come and down here. Just let the gravity pull you near." Avant sings as Frankie pulls closer.

"Your girl is lucky, you know." Frankie whisperers in my ear.

"I'm the lucky one." I tell Frankie. Cause I really am.

Ashley is absolutely the best girlfriend anyone could ever have.

"Yeah. I can see that too." Frankie nods and smiles as she dances unusually far from me.

Not that I'm complaining. I'm just saying... it's weird.

"I can read your mind baby. And I know what your thinking. But its alright (with me baby), it's alright (with me) baby. I can read your mind babe. I know what you're thinking. Girl I'm off in your head. So let's get in bed. And do what your mind said." Avant sings as Frankie's eyes drift off to somewhere behind me.

"It was fun, Carlin." She smiles and steps back.

"What?" I question.

"May I cut in?" I hear a raspy voice ask behind me.

A voice that I'd recognize anywhere.

"Ashley?" I breathe out and turn to face the voice.

It is Ashley!

My Ashley!

Behind her I see all my friends gathered smiling.

"How did you...when do you...what the fuck!?"I question her and she giggles at me.

"Later. Right now I wanna be kissing my girlfriend." She tells me and pulls me closer to her, kissing me hard...and by hard I mean Oh My God, she is kissing the fuck outta me right now.

"Mmmm." I moan into the kiss. Oh how I have missed my girlfriend.

"I love you." She whispers into my lips.

"Not nearly as much as I love you." Is my reply as I reconnect our lips cause what the fuck... I missed them.

"Are you guys gonna make out all night?" Taylor comes up next to us and asks.

"Get the fuck away." I tell her, pushing her away by her face, but never releasing my girlfriends lips.

I'm talented, I know.

Ashley and I made out for about an hour before we decided enough!

Okay... it was decided for us when our friends came over and practically pulled us apart.

Fuck their life!

"You're here." I say with a smile and Ashley and I sway to the music.

"I am." She smiles back.

I bet we look like a couple of smiling idiots but I don't care.

My baby is really here right now.

"How did you...?" I ask slowing running my fingers down her face just to make sure she's real and not a hologram cause you know people are about that life out here.

I'm drunk I wanna make sure.

Shit, is this real life?

"I'll tell you..."

But before Ashley or Ashley's hologram finishes her sentence she was rudely interrupted.

"What the fuck are you bitches waiting for lets get drunk?!" Jade yells at us as she pulls both me and Ashley by the arm towards the bar

So, I have confirmed that this is indeed Ashley.

We haven't had time to speak to each other but our mouths are moving.

Wink wink.

"10 seconds motherfuckers!" The Dj yells over N word in Paris or should I say N-I-star-star-A-S in Paris.

"Nine..." Everyone starts to count down but not me and Ashley.

We are deep in each others eyes .

"Eight..."

Still smiling like assholes.

"Seven.."

I can't believe she's actually here.

"Six.."

I can sense all my friends gathering around me hugging their girlfriends.

"Five.."

I know they have something to do with this.

"Four.."

Ashley and I close the gap between us.

"Three.." I hear everyone yelling.

Ashley grabs me by my waist and my arms go around her neck

"Two..."

"I love you.." Ashley says into my lips before she gives me the kiss of my life.

"One... Happy fucking New Years!" The DJ yells.

Everyone in that second lost all their shit as the song plays over.

I barely hear the ruckus around me.

All I can feel are Ashley's lips.

"I love you so much baby." I say once we break our kiss. "Happy New Years."

"Happy New Years, Spence." She says and reconnects our lips.

Ugh...

I am hung over as shit!

I don't even wanna open my eyes.

OK, why am I naked?

I know I'm home I can feel my favorite pillow next to me.

I threw the blanket over my head and sank deeper into my bed.

Seriously why am I naked?

"Spencer if you don't stop moving I am gonna throw up all over your fucking bed!"

"Ashley!" I yell ripping the blanket off us and sitting up.

Oh shit bad idea.

Okay... I think I'm okay now.

"What the fuck?" I say looking at my girlfriend on my bed.

She's naked by the way.

And in that instant everything came flooding back to me.

"Holy shit.." I say laying back down. "Hey.." I whisper to my girlfriend brushing the hair out of her face.

"Hey." She says not opening her eyes but she smiles wide.

She turns her head and opens her eyes.

Fuck I love her.

"I love you." I tell her meaning every word.

"I love you more baby." She says leaning over to kiss me.

I can feel it in my bones.

That's the kind of kisses Ashley gives me.

After a few more kisses we both got up to freshen up and now we're laying back in bed waiting for breakfast to be ready.

"Everyone knew didn't they?" I ask my girlfriend.

As you probably guessed, we got absolutely no sleep last night.

And I'm not complaining one bit.

Granted I don't remember half of it right now... I'm sure it was still amazing.

"Not at first. It was supposed to be a surprise. No one expected Glen to go all big brotherly and get you those tickets." She says with a smile.

"OH!" I say suddenly, sitting up on the bed.

"What?" Ashley questions.

"The new bed makes sense now." I say, putting two and two together. "You guys are fucking sneaky." I raise a brow at her and she kisses my lips.

"I love you." She says into my lips, trying to change the subject.

No no...

She's not getting away from it that easily.

"How long did you know you were coming here?" I ask her.

"You're not gonna tell me you love me?" She asks and pouts.

Ugh!

She knows what that does to me.

"Stop trying to change the subject and tell me Ashley." I tell her with a serious face cause I mean, what the hell? How dare she keep this information from me for however long she's known.

"I wanted to surprise you." She says avoiding the question.

"Ashley." I say sternly.

"Two weeks." She says and flinches like I would turn into the hulk or something.

"Two weeks!" I scream and jump up from the bed. "How dare you not tell me for two whole weeks." I say and this time I'm the one pouting.

"I'm sorry." Ashley says, getting up and kissing away my pout. "I wanted to surprise you baby." She wraps her arms around my neck and kisses my lips again and I can't remember my own name, let alone what I was pouting about. "I love you." She tells me, pulling back from the kiss.

"I love you more." Is my reply.

"Girls! Breakfast!" My mom yells up the steps and I whimper when Ashley pulls out of the kiss.

"We have an eternity to do this, Spence." She says with a smile, pulling me down the stairs.

Yes...yes we do...

The End.
