"No, Spence. It’s okay, really. That was out of line."
   "Ashley, stop. It’s just, I don’t know if I can say it."
   "It’s okay. I, uh, I’m gonna go."  Spencer jumped up from the bed.
   "Damn it, Ashley. Let me explain!" Ashley turned around and Spencer stood in front of her. "What I can say is that I care about you a lot. I’m not sure that I know exactly what love is. But, I do know that you are in my mind every waking moment and in my dreams every single night. I feel safer with your than I’ve felt my entire life. I know I can always come to you and you’ll always be there. I feel an emptiness beside me when you’re gone and I’m complete when you are walking beside me. Everytime we touch my body tingles, everytime we kiss I can see heaven. I get lost in your eyes and your smile makes me melt. So, if that’s love. Then hell yeah I love you Ashley Davies. And if it’s not, then I cna’t wait to fall in love with you. Because right now I don’t see it getting any better, but if it does, it’ll be perfect. I can’t wait to fall in love with you."

Ashley didn’t reply she just kissed Spencer. She hoped that she would be able to express how she felt in that one kiss.  They pulled apart and got lost in each other’s eyes.

   "Girls! It’s ready" Arthur called from downstairs.
   "Damn time flies." Ashley chuckled.
   "Sure does." Spencer grabbed her girlfriend’s hand and they went to go eat. They got downstairs and entered the kitchen. "Feeling Italian, dad?"
   "Yeah, I guess I was." He smiled. "Do you like fetuccini (sp?) alfredo, Ashley?"
   "Pfft, do I? It’s like my favorite Italian dish."

She quickly sat down and began scarfing down the food. Arthur, Spencer, and Glen followed. Glena ctually stayed civilized during the whole dinner. No stupid remarks, no glares, and he even had an actual conversation with Ashley. Spencer looked around the table and smiled. They 2 people that meant the most to her were smiling, laughing, and having a good time. She was gald her mother was not there. It would’ve ruined everything. She looked one last time at Ashley and laughed. Ashley turned to her with a confused face.

   "What??"
   "You gotta little sometime right here." Spencer wiped some sauce off of her girlfriend’s chin.
   "Oh, haha, thanks." She kissed the blonde quickly.
   "Haha, you do know what a napkin is, don’t you?"
   "Oh, so now you’re going to make fun of me?"
   "Maybe. Maybe not." Spencer shrugged. Ashley poked her side, causing her to giggle. "Ash, stop"
   "What I can’t hear you?" She poked her again.
   "Haha, Ashley, please."
   "Are you going to make fun of me?" She poked her twice.
   "No, no. I won’t." Ashley poked her side one last time.
   "That’s better." Arthur smiled at the two girls who were so involved with each other that they probably forgot that he and Glen were still sitting there. Even Glen smiled but he hid it before it was noticed.

Supper was over. Spencer and Arthur were doing the dishes. Ashley offered to help but they wouldnt let her. So she was stuck in the living room with Glen. He was playing videogames and she just watched.

   "So, you really like my sister, huh?"
   "What?"
   "You really like my sister, huh?"
   "Yeah, I really really do." Ashley blushed.
   "And you’re not going to hurt her?"
   "Never."
   "Ok." He paused his game and turned towards her. "Look, I’m sorry for being a total disk and everything. Spencer went through a really hard time in Ohio and I didn’t want her to face that pain along again. Her last girlfriend was a mega bitch. I was just trying to protect her.
   "I understand. But she’s not going to face it alone. I’ll be there with her the whole time. I want to protect her, too. She means to much to me."
   "I know. Just keep her happy and be careful with her heart, okay?"
   "Okay, Glen."
