"Well hey, I have to get to class. But I’ll meet you after school at your car, ok? I have something important I need to talk to you about." Spencer told her friend.

"Mmk. See ya later!" And with that, Ashley turned around and walked away. Spencer stayed where she was and watched Ashley walking off for a few seconds, and then headed off to her own class.

………………………………….

(At Ashley’s car, after school)

"So, what was this "something important" you have to talk to me about?" Ashley asked Spencer.

"How about we go to your house. I’ll tell you there."

"Ok, whatever. But I know what you’re doing…you can’t fool me. Ashley Davies is the queen of stalling. Don’t even think I won’t get whatever is bothering you out in the open. "

great… Spencer’s heart began beating much faster as they got closer to Ashley’s house. Er…scratch that. Ashley’s mansion. What am I going to say? What if she freaks out? I’m almost positive she likes me…but what if I’m wrong? Ohhhh this is not good. Not good at all.

Spencer’s heart began beating much faster as they got closer to Ashley’s house. Er…scratch that. Ashley’s .
Spencer’s hear to heart with herself was not going un-noticed by Ashley. She didn’t want to scare Spencer though, so she left her alone til’ they got to her house.

In the mean time, Spencer was still talking to herself. Why do I have to feel this way? It would be so much easier if I could just like guys, like all the other girls at school. I wish mom wasn’t so narrow-minded. Can’t she see that this isn’t something I just decided to feel? Can’t she understand that it just happens? The way she loves dad is just so natural, how come she doesn’t see that to me, this is natural too? Ahhhh. We’re here…time to bare all.

The two girls got out of Ashley’s car, went inside, and headed up the stairs towards her room. Once they were there, Ashley got right down to it.

"So, what’s the matter?"

"Um…I..well. Do you remember that day by the pier? The day I told you I might like girls?"

"…yes…of course. That was an important day for both of us. You know that"

"Well now…I’ve figured things out. I guess what I needed, that deciding factor, was to really feel something for somebody. And I guess what I’m trying to say is that I’ve found it."

A concerned look came across Ashley’s face.

"Do you like Aiden? I mean, it’s totally cool if you do. I’ve been there. He’s a cool guy, and now that you say that, I guess the way you act around him kind of makes sense. You two -"

Oh no…she’s taking this all the wrong way! She decided to break in.

"Ashley. No. I don’t like Aiden. I don’t feel that way about him, or any other guy for that matter. I…"

A lump rose in her throat. A freakin’ huge lump.

"Spence?"

"Ashley…I’m..I think I’m falling for you."
