Chapter 20: Comfortable Cuddling & Long Hugs

Ashley slowly opened her eyes to feel a warm body entangled in her arms. She looked at the still sleeping blonde and smiled. Ashley slowly began to stroke the girls’s hair.

Ashley: "(whispers) You are so beautiful Spencer."

Ashley continued her stroking until Spencer began to adjust herself so that she was now facing away from Ashley. This adjustment caused both Ashley’s and Spencer’s arms and legs to break from each other. Ashley lifted herself onto her elbow, while putting her head into her hand so that she was staring at Spencer’s backside. Spencer then reached out her arm and began to evidently search for something, because she was feeling around all that was behind her. She grabbed Ashley’s arm and pulled her towards her, completing her search. Now both laid on their sides. Ashley’s left arm was snaked around Spencer’s waist and her hand lay on the girl’s stomach, while her right arm was once again under Spencer’s head. To Ashley’s surprise, Spencer then laced her fingers through the hand that lie on her stomach.

Never had they been so close both emotionally and physically. Spencer’s never spoken to Ashley about the possibility of her being gay, not since three months ago. Ashley feels that much more love to and from Spencer since the girl does trust her with such a sensitive thing, as ones sexuality. The two have never whether sleeping or awake, been as close as they are now. They’ve never cuddled at night, just the occasional limbs thrown onto the other’s body, but they’ve never held each other this close. To say they didn’t like it would be a lie. Ashley, wide awake just laid there smiling as she put her head into Spencer’s back. Spencer, in a deep slumber, smiled in her sleep, at the comfort and warm feeling of the tan arms around her body. This closeness may forever change their relationship..

Spencer awoke to her phone ringing. She looked back at Ashley’s whose arms were snaked around her. She smiled at the loving gesture and turned herself in Ashley’s arms. She wanted to kiss her, yes she did. But she fought the urge, her mind winning the battle, not the war. She began to move the soft curls out of Ashley’s face as her phone continued to ring.
