“Because you guys are so…I don’t know.” She runs her hand through her long dark hair. “I mean, Ashley was never this smitten with Taylor. I don’t know if it was because they were younger or what, but damn.” She grins at me. “Ashley is so into you and your hopelessly in love with her, it just reminds me of my first time. I was so in love with the guy who took my virginity.”

“Well…I’m not a whore, but no. It was gone two girls and a guy before Ashley.”Ashley and I have talked about past relationship and sex many times before. Plus, I don’t get uncomfortable when it comes to talking about sex. Jordan and I will sit around and talk about it all the time.

“I don’t know…but whatever it is, it’s good. I think you guys are cute and Ashley is very happy.” I get up from the couch that I’m sitting on and hug London.

“Ash?” I try moving even closer to her on the couch then I already am. London went home three houses ago and I’m still in Ashley’s living room, but now we’re cuddling under a blanket on her love seat, while Jordan and Michael occupy the other couch. Its movie night and we’ve decided to stay in and watch some DVDs.

“Yeah?” She says, never taking her eyes away from the TV. I tug on the hand that’s in my mine, but she still doesn’t look away.

“Let’s go for a walk.”

“It’s late.” She states as if that’s going to end the conversation.

“Ashley…” I whine.

“We’ll miss the movie.” I roll my eyes.

“You’ve seen it a million times.” I throw the cover off my legs. “Come on.” Seriously how many times can you watch the Breakfast Club? I know it’s a great movie, but damn.

“Spe…”

“Ashley.” That gets her to stand up.

“Are you okay?” She asks for like the fifth time as we make a right at the corner to start back up her street.

“I’m great.”I smile thinking about all the nice things London said about me and my relationship with her sister.

“Are you sure?”

“I love you.” I say ignoring her and pulling on her hand so she’s closer.

“Who doesn’t?” She teases and puts her hand around my shoulder.

We stay quiet for a little while and just walk and hold each other close. We walk up her drive and sit on the step right outside her door.

“I got you something.” I tell her, while playing with her hands.

“Well then hand it over.” Damn I can’t even think of a good enough word to describe her right now. She’s so damn cute and perfect.

“Okay…give me a minute.” I get up and run in the house to get her gift. As I’m running pass the living room, I catch a glimpse of Jordan and Michael sucking face. “Please don’t have sex on the couch!” I yell when I run back pass.

“Here,” I place the little rectangular box in her hand.

“Baby…” Ashley whispers when she opens it. “Forever….love Spence.” She reads the simple engraved words.

“Come here.” Ashley says pulling me into her and kissing me. “I love you.” She whispers into the kiss.

“Who doesn’t?” I grin and peck her lips.

“It’s perfect.” She says motioning for me to help her put on the silver bracelet.

“Good.” I intertwine our hands.

“I want to make love to you now.” I just grin at her.
