Chapter 29: Discovered Secrets

School was already out and Ashley and Spencer sat atop a picnic table talking and laughing, just having a goo time before it was time for Glen get out of practice. Ashley would take her but with the chance of getting caught by the devil herself made that option out of the question. So, much to Spencer’s obvious failed protest, Ashley said she’d wait with her to, ‘entertain’ her.

Since very few people were walking around the quad they sat very close. Their shoulders were brushing up against one another and their pinkie and ring fingers were lightly touching one another. To a passerby it would look as they were sharing music or something of that sort, but it wouldn’t look like they were in dire need of touching each other. It wouldn’t look as if they had been longing to feel the soft skin of the other girl’s against their own. It wouldn’t look as if they’ve made out multiple times. No, it would just look they were friends, minus the benefits.

Ashley: "So, what are we going to do, about us?"

Spencer turned and faced Ashley, grabbing her hand and putting it behind each of their backs and bags. Their intertwined hands now lay between their backs and school bags, hidden from the world, like their now forming relationship. All of it a secret.

Spencer: "I don’t know Ash. My mom would kill me if she even found that I was talking to you."

Ashley: "Yeah, I bet. But you know I want you."

Spencer: "I know babe. I want you too, but I still need to end things with Jared and that’s not going to go over well with mother dearest."

Ashley: "I forgot about that ass."

Spencer laughed.

Spencer: "He’s a nice guy Ash."

Ashley: "Yeah but he was feeling all up on my girl. Can I kick his ass?"

Spencer: "No, you be nice to him and that’s an order Davies."

Spencer pointed her finger at Ashley and gave her a serious look.

Ashley: "Ooo I like you being all demanding. It’s totally hot."

Spencer: "Oh really? You know what else is hot?"

Ashley: "What?"

Spencer leaned close to Ashley’s ear and quietly whispered. "You and me in that bathroom again."
