You must think I’m a bit slow because I still didn’t get it. No, some things you have to slap me in the face with. We’re not quite there yet.
I chose to do nothing, to stand there in the dark gaze of her room holding her hand. I don’t know what she felt then, we’ve never discussed it and I never pretended to know. I’m not savvy, I don’t read minds. When she just stood there, staring at me and holding my hand, stroking the back of it gently with her thumb.
In my head, she was a ten second clip of a movie on endless repeat, coming out of a darkened room straightening her shirt. The heat in my head was excruciating, but almost nothing compared to the heat in my hand, the gentle path on my skin her thumb was tracing.
And then she said it,
“I’m sorry,”
And I forgave her instantly. I won’t pretend that my head felt better straight away, but in my heart, she was forgiven. She knew, I think straight away, that she hurt me. It said so much for her, for her amazing tenderness and her care, that she meant it. She’d hurt me, she’d seen it, but for what reason. What right did I have to be upset, to be angry? None, but I was.
She hauled me into her arms and I didn’t object, didn’t resist. I stood in her arms, motionless, for just an instant, before I wrapped my own around her and held on for dear life. I wanted to scream at her, tell her she didn’t need anyone but me, I’d be everything for her, but I stayed quiet and just held her while she held me.
We hugged, I mean, we’d hugged before, but not like this. This was so close, so tight and so needy. We needed each other, oh how we needed. I do not know how we got to bed, or how we ended up in bed. I do know that we forwent pyjamas for the first time ever.
Lying under the covers in underwear and a tank top I held on to her again. This time there was more to it, she was tucked under my chin and had buried her head in my neck. I could feel her breath on my collar bone as she lay there. I was still out of my own head. I never thought of these things happening to us, to me, I didn’t know how to deal. I couldn’t think, could barely breath and I had no idea what was going on but I had to move, had to be. I let my instincts take control that day and they wrapped me around Ashley tighter than a cocoon. My mouth in her hair, my arms around her and my legs tangled in hers. Our smooth skin sliding across each other.

My dear, you’ve outdone yourself again… I’d love to smack Spencer for walking away though! There are some things in life you don’t walk away from true love is at the very top of the list followed by chocolate and Angelina Jolie ;) At least Spence is going back though… Although we’d all LOVE to know WHY… ok ok sue me I’m impatient… j/k loving this fic… draw it out as long as you want to! Nonono… didn’t like the oneshot.. LOVED the oneshot… that little piece was orgasmic!
I feel really, really bad that people aren’t commenting for you anymore. I’ve usually been lazy with the comments because I barely have enough time to read the stories, but I’m going to try to comment more often on your stories. Out of every author on this site, you definitely deserve it the most. Okay, so now to the commenting, I have loved every single story that has flowed out of your head. After Best For Me ended, I didn’t think you could top that off. BFM was just so damn good, but I’m honestly just blown away by your ability to continue to write the best stories ever. I love the direction of this FF. It’s unlike anything else I’ve read before. I was so distraught after reading your last post because of the whole Aiden/Ashley thing. A part of the reason was because I’m still harboring some residual anger towards Aiden because of the season finale, but the bigger reason is the way you’ve built up the characters in this story. You made Spencer so vulnerable, so open to us, so when that moment came, that moment when Ash hurt her, I felt an actual physical pain. I love that you know how to blend emotion, compelling storylines, drama, wit, and whatever else it takes to write a good story in all your FFs. As upset as the start of this chapter made me, you did a great job turning things around for me in the end. This story is awesome like your other ones, so thank you and please don’t stop writing anytime soon and definitely don’t get discouraged by lazy idiots like me who don’t comment because I promise I won’t stop reading anytime soon.
I don’t know how you do it, but your stories always pull me in. I love them all!! The flashbacks in this story are divine, coupled with the present they are a little heartbreaking. Hopefully, Spencer will find what she is looking for soon!!!
arghh this is just too sad!! dammit why did ashley slept with aiden?? wth was she thinking? and spencer forgiving her just like that? why aren’t they admiting their feelings for each other when it’s so obvious already? i know i got lotsa questions. but the main one is how badly did spence hurt ash to come to where they are now? one running and the other chasing? pls post soon!!

Thanks for the awesome comments in your notes. I can only leave such comments because you give me something so great to read. You are definitely one of my favorite author’s on this site. You rock, plain and simple. On to the story, it bothers me that Ashley slept with Aiden and we have no idea why. Was she drunk? Was she trying to get Spencer to realize her true feelings for Ashley? Why? Although I do understand Spencer’s willingness to forgive Ashley so fast. That’s what you do when you love someone. That kiss was pretty hot. Funny that Spencer still has no clue of what her relationship with Ashley is turning into. But the question still remains, what the heck did Spencer do to Ashley? PMS!
