Spencer broke off in the middle of her sentence when she realized Ashley was looking at her with a smile on her face. “Uh, Ashley?”

“I was listening to your soliloquy, Spence. Please continue, it was very interesting,” Ashley said, laughing.

“Shut up. You know, your apartment is kind of big for only one person. Where are your parents?” Spencer asked, looking around. She loved how it was decorated. It had a certain charm to it. Everything was put together so that it balanced everything else properly, and the floor-to-ceiling windows didn’t hurt either. It was bright and open, and the apartment bore a minimalist style.

“They live at Beverly Hills. I thought of trying out the whole independent life thing. I only have one more year of high school, and I was thinking of applying to college in Paris to be closer to Lyle, so this is kind of a trail thing for me,” Ashley said. “Do you want le grand tour?”

Spencer laughed as she got up. “Sure.”

Ashley stood up as well, stretching her arms high above her head. She could feel Spencer’s eyes on her, especially as her chest was sticking out. Her V-neck could be pretty transparent under bright lights, and she had discarded her bra early on. Ashley smirked. She knew she was being a tease, but she couldn’t help it. The blonde’s apparent attraction to her was making it hard to play nice.

“Okay so as you can see, this is the living area and back here is my mini-studio,” Ashley said, leading Spencer into a room at the back of the apartment. Spencer gasped. The so-called mini-studio was very well equipped. Several electric guitars hung from one of the heavily padded walls, and on the opposite wall hung a few more acoustic guitars and a couple of bass guitars. A magnificent purple-red drum set stood proudly in the middle of the room, and behind it was a wall of amplifiers of different sizes. A beanbag sat in the corner of the room next to a mini-fridge.

“Um, yeah wow. Mini-studio,” Spencer said, making air quotes. Ashley laughed, knowing that the other girl was impressed.

“Come, you haven’t seen my bedroom,” Ashley said excitedly, pulling Spencer by her hand. “Welcome to Ashley Davies’ bedroom! You’re officially the second person ever to be in here!” Ashley announced, running towards her bed.
