Chapter 28: Couple? No. Kissing Friends? Yeah.

The ‘Spashley’ filled weekend had passed. Yes, Spencer and Ashley hadn’t really spent much time apart since they kissed. They were inseparable and had no plans of separation soon. That was an operation never to be performed. The weekend full of innocent kisses, not so innocent make outs, longing looks, subtle glances, gentle touches, and daring hands, was over. It ended quicker than wanted, with no chance to really talk because they were to hung up on one another.

What were they? Technically Spencer was still with Jared and neither had asked the other that not so simple question. It was in the air, waiting for a hand to grasp it, but over the weekend no one had spoken up, so they were still holding air in their hands and still reaching up, jumping up to get a hold of what they both wanted. That label saying ‘Girlfriends’.

Ashley pulled up to the King High parking lot with Spencer in the passengers seat holding her hand. Their fingers laced perfectly together. The warmness and comfort was a feeling that the two were indeed loving. It just felt so right to hold each other’s hand and no one was leading nor was anyone following, they were together, in sync.

Ever since that kiss everything changed, they were on the road to being one. Their hearts held right above the other girl’s opened waiting hand. Their souls almost touching. A kiss. A kiss did all this and it shocked, frightened, and pleased each girl. They finally got what their heart had been longing for.

Ashley had finally parked and her and Spencer were just sitting there in silence, hands clasped together, Ashley’s thumb making small patterns on Spencer’s soft skin, and Spencer biting at her strawberry tasting lips.

Ashley: "So…."

Ashley turned in her seat and faced Spencer. Spencer nervously turned, taking her eyes off of Madison and Glen clearly arguing. She looked into Ashley’s eyes, the ones that made her heart melt as they held so much emotion. It was like each speck of gold was telling her something different, something of importance. Spencer loved that about Ashley’s eyes she could get lost in them like a single grain of salt falling in the sand. She get lost never to be found again. Nothing couple stupor her back into reality. Well except the holder of those eyes.
