”Ugh…a paper and a test next week.  You know I think I’m going to have to rethink this whole good student routine.”

Ashley glared at Spencer who just laughed as they headed back to their lockers.  They had survived the first morning of classes and now it was time for lunch.  The girls dropped their books off and headed to the quad to find a table.

“Seriously Spence…this whole AP thing might be a mistake…”

“Why?”

“Well I mean what if we discover that I’m actually smarter than you…I mean what will your dad say???”

“Haha very funny…and you are smart so I don’t know why you’re making such a big deal…you can do it…”

“Well…I guess…besides…having you in some of my classes takes the edge off…”

Spencer rolled her eyes as they approached an open table and sat down.  Aiden and Jamie spotted them and joined them after stopping to pick up Jamie’s lunch.

“So what are you guys doing this weekend?  First weekend back and all…”

“Grays…”

“What is Grays?”

Jamie looked confused as Aiden quickly explained.

“It’s basically where everyone hangs out.  Music, food, dancing…”

“Sounds like fun…”

“Great then why don’t we double?”

Jamie looked more confused now and Spencer blushed a little as she cleared her throat.  Even though she was okay with being gay now she felt like Ashley had kind of sprung it on the new girl.  She hoped that Jamie was okay with it.  Ashley on the other hand acted like it was no biggie and charged ahead.

“Yeah why don’t you guys meet us at my house on Friday.  I heard they’re doing some kind of DJ competition.  Sounds like a good time?”

“Wait I’m sorry…didn’t you say something about doubling?”

Jamie looked back and forth between Ashley, Spencer and Aiden and waited patiently for an explanation.  Aiden obliged her.

“Uh yeah…Spencer and Ashley are…um…what are you guys?”

“Dating.” “Together.”

The two girls looked at each other with unreadable expressions so they didn’t see Jamie raise her eyebrows at the couple as Aiden tried to smooth the situation over.

“Yeah they’re a couple…does that…freak you out?”
