Ashley: "Spence, listen to me. I’m sorry ok. I should have thought and I didn’t, so I’m sorry. None of this is your fault, I just I got caught up in the moment and you did as well. We can put this behind us."

Spencer: "But Ashley I wanted to. I wanted to kiss you. (Whispers) What does this mean?"

Ashley smiled a small smile and she slowly wiped away the tears that began to fall down Spencer’s cheeks.

Ashley: "It can mean whatever you want it to Spencer."

Spencer: "I can’t be..I won’t be…I’m not…"

Ashley: "It’s not wrong Spencer."

Spencer just covered her face with her hands and began sobbing. Ashley raised herself to sit on the bed and pulled Spencer into her. She held her and soothed her by whispering comforting words and rubbing her back. Spencer sobs died down but they remained entangled in each other’s arms. Spencer then pulled back wiping at her eyes.

Spencer: "I have to go Ash."

Ashley: "Let me take you."

Spencer: "No, I’ll get Glen to get me. I just. I can’t deal with this right now. I’ll call you later."

Ashley: "Are you sure that you’re going to be ok?"

Spencer: "I just need some time alone."

Ashley: "Ok Spence. Call me I want to know that you’re ok."

Spencer: "I will."

With her head down Spencer walked out of the door. Ashley then sighed and ran her hands through her hair.

What have I gotten myself into?

She then shivered at the lingered feeling of Spencer’s skin on hers and raised her hand touching her lips where, for some odd reason she could still feel Spencer’s hot breath on them. Never had she wanted to kiss someone so bad. Never had she actually thought twice about the outcome of a kiss with another girl. Spencer was different and she just began to notice that she cared for the girl.

I hope she’s ok.

Spencer waited outside wiping any evidence of the tears that had fallen earlier. she saw Glen’s car pull up and she quietly walked over to it and got in, without a word. She kept her head turned to the right so that she was looking out of the window at the scenery of a busy city night.
