I know it's a little short guys but I'm slowly going back into this again. I REAALLLYY APOLOGIZE for the wait. Unfortunately the only comment I got for last chapter was negative and it took me off of writing for a bit, PLUS I had a ton of homework and lacrosse. But noow all I have are AP tests so I'll definately have some more free time to think up more ways to entertain you guys. If you're still here, 1) you're awesome. 2) could you let me know? and 3) I hope you forgive me for the month long hiatus.

REVIEWERS:

Palexiot: Well. First of all, Ardex. Not Arlex. Second of all, people love the OC's and you've had almost 50 chapters to figure them out. Third of all, you're pretty much the only one who believes she's boring. She happens to be the entertainment. If you don't believe me, read past comments on this story and the 4 stories of the WL & RL series. Fourth of all, I've been trying to correct and balance out the Alex with more Spashley. and FIFTH, if you don't like it. Don't read it and don't grace my awful story with your comment. There's a way of getting what you want out of a story with me. If you have mayyybe nicely requested a little less OC then I'd have taken that into consideration. BUT because of your negatively biting comment, it put me off my writing for a decently long time. So, think before you type and just chill for two seconds because in my history of writing there has only been one other negative comment about any of my stories and if you claim this story is "disappointing" then you claim that I'm "disappointing" at being myself. This story and all of my others have been a part of me for a year and a half. I took the time in writing you a response because I believe that you had a couple minor valid points, I was just blinded by my tears (figuratively, almost literally, but no, figuratively). Thanks for your response, criticism is criticism, some just takes longer to accept bits.

Fumbling Towards Ecstasy: Ah, m'lady. You've repaired your poor jester's heart. Thank you for your kind words of encouragement. You've saved the sinking ship and for that, I'll be forever in your debt. As always, your Jester.

REEAD, REEVIEW, and EENJOY!

Ashley's POV

"So…incredibley…sore." Coop groans from our couch back at our loft.

"Your fault, Al. You just had to get into trouble with Rio again." Emily chuckles.

"Seriously, seeing you speed off and then almost fall off Rio was amazing." I snicker and Coop just glares at me.

Emily sits next to Coop who wraps an arm around her. I'm confused, that looks strangely intimate, until Alex yanks her arm and pulls Emily into her to ruffle her hair. "Quit it, Cooper. Or I'll hogtie your ass."

Alex immediately stops, "I take it she's had experiences with your hogtieing." Spencer says while chuckling and snuggling into my side.

"She was definitely a handful. Even more than she is now." Emily winks and Coop chuckles, shaking her head. Have they? I mean…they flirt enough. They know tons about each other. Wouldn't surprise me.

"So, have you two fucked each other or what?" Oh, I forgot to mention that Briley stopped over. You can guess which one that is. "Ouch, Bridge, what? Everyone's wondering." Wiles puts on a pout and Bridget rolls her eyes.

"You could've been a bit nicer about your phrasing."

Coop makes a whipping noise from across the room as Arden walks behind the couch to the kitchen, resulting in a passing smack to the back of the head. "Arrrdd," Alex whines.

Emily just snickers at Coop before answering the question, "No, we haven't." Good that would've been messy.

"We did share a nice drunken make out session that led to groping and clothes being tossed around." Alex says nonchalantly, biting one of her nails. Nasty habit.

"Until she hurled a few chunks in my toilet fell asleep there." Everyone snickers and Alex is actually red and speechless for once."Oh those good old days," Emily drawls out with a smirk. "Back when we made little to nothing and had table waiting jobs. Only way to entertain ourselves was to go out to a club and drink and party."

I snort, "Alex Cooper? Clubbing? Partying? Really."

"She was pretty different when I first met her." Spencer nuzzles into my neck. I realize then that I've never heard the full story of how they met.

"She was a bit more wild than goofy back in those days and did she ever have a bitin' quick wit about her." Emily explains, ruffling Coop's hair.

Spencer's hand laces with mine, squeezing it and tracing her fingers over the back of my hand. She smiles softly and I feel a small smile grow. She leans up and kisses my cheek before whispering softly, "I need to talk to you about something." I give her a questioning look. "Nothing bad, just need to discuss it after our guests leave." I nod and she smiles softly before burying her face back into my neck.

After a few more comments and small conversations, Emily leaves for a meeting. And we're left with a snuggley Ardex. Don't ask me where Briley went. I have no idea and I don't want to know, the bunnies are definitely at it again.

"Ash," my girlfriend whispers into my ear. I'm gradually dozing off, it's been a long day. "Let's go to your room." Well, that perked me right up. She slides off my lap and grabs my hand and we enter my room, hearing whoops from the peanut gallery known as Alex Cooper.

I shut the door and pull Spencer close to me for a kiss but as soon as I try and deepen it she pulls away with a smile. "Ash," She whines, "I need to talk to you."

"Can't we talk later?" I husk out into her ear before licking just below her earlob. I can feel her resolve weakening.

"Ashley." Spencer attempts a stern protest against my actions. She even tried the full first name.

"Spencer." I fire back with smirk and slide my hands to her ass pulling her into me.

She turns us around and pushes me onto the bed, grabbing my hand and holding them above my hand. Now we're talking here. "Babe, if you wanted to top me all you had to do was ask."

And then she utters the words that completely kill my mood, "Christine Davies." I groan and sigh, pouting at my switch has been turned from on to off by two words and a horrid woman.

"Babe," I whine. "You did not just say my mother's name while on top of me."

"Yes, I did. And you forced me to take drastic measures." She dismounts and sits next to me.

"Alright, alright. It must me serious time." I sit up and look at her. "What's going on babe?"

She bites her lip nervously, "So, we've been together a long time. And I've spent pretty much every waking minute here. Everyone including you has hinted to the idea…" I've never seen her this nervous before.

"Spence, baby, it's alright. You can ask or tell me anything." I grab her hands and she looks into my eyes, exhaling before continuing.

"Well, my lease on my apartment is coming up at the end of the month." Ohhh. Wow. She beat me to it. A grin spreads across my face.

"I would love nothing more than for you to move in with me, Spencer Carlin." She grins. "Well, I'll make it official." I get up and walk to my dresser, leaving my confused girlfriend on the bed. I pull out the box in my top drawer and move to stand infront of her before kneeling. "Spencer Carlin, will you do me the honor of officially becoming my bedmate," cue eyebrow wiggle, "and moving into the loft with me?" I wink at her and she rolls her eyes, chuckling.

"Never can be too serious can you?" I open the box to reveal a key with a camera shaped silver charm dangling from it. I hear her breath catch. "Were you planning to ask me?"

I smile softly and nod, "Yeah. You think I'd forget when you're lease is up after discussing it with you? I remember everything about you Spence. And I'd never forget the chance to become even closer to you." I earn a blush and a grin with that comment, "So, uh, can I get an answer here or what?" I tease and she launches into my arms.

"Yes, Ashley Davies, I'll move in with you." And with those words, Spencer Carlin has officially moved into my house and branded her space in my heart.
