And I held her like this as her wet, salty tears marked my skin and the sobbing began. I don’t think I said anything, I don’t think I needed to. I just wrapped myself around her and held on for dear life.
We were still tangled in each other when we awoke that morning. My face on her pillow, inches from hers. The amazing timing of the universe, our clocks in perfect rhythm, we awoke within seconds of each other, blinking in the new morning. I remember her hand coming up to touch my cheek, not to stroke or cup, just to touch.
My skin felt stretched there, my whole head felt strange. Her body was still pressed near mine, like a v shape. Our legs were entwined and our heads were the furthest apart, and that wasn’t very far.
Some things, I will never forget. Like the first day I met her, like the first time I saw her smile. Like the first time we kissed. And yet, I can’t tell you who initiated it, or how it came to be. How we managed to close that distance and yet… the first touch of those lips on mine, so unexpected and yet so good.
Closed mouth at first, just a brushing of two soft lips on two more. Then her hand tangled in my hair and urged me closer, the kisses getting whisperingly deeper. I remember crushing closer, trying for more contact, knowing there was more there. I parted my lips, and felt her tongue slip out, tasting me, testing. I moaned, the slight tickling contact making my body shudder against her. Tentatively I let my own tongue move, just the tip brushing against hers. She rolled me over, pushing me into the bed with her body and holding herself over me. I wrapped my legs around hers, to hold her close, to make sure she didn’t stop. I never wanted her to stop.
The kisses went on, one melding into another. I only noticed I was moving when she groaned, her hand finding the sharp edge of my hip and squeezing. I was grinding up against her, panting as we kissed, and I didn’t even know it. My hand was gripping in her hair, convulsively flexing and releasing as my body ached for something the rest of me wasn’t ready for.
I don’t know how close we came that morning, to taking it all the way. At some point, panting and groaning we pulled apart slightly, her face burying in my neck and her hands gripping the sheets either side of me. I just held on, using her as my buoy, pure safety. I was shaking and possibly more confused than ever.
And all I wanted to do was kiss her again.
By the time we pulled apart properly, finally far enough that our skin was no longer touching and we were staring at each other in some kind of amazement. I made some excuse, some mumbled excuse, and grabbed my clothes, fleeing for the bathroom.
It was the most speed, the most decision I’d made in hours. Throwing on my clothes I washed my face again. It was still hot, flushed, but for a completely different reason now. I had to leave. I gave her no reason, I gave her no goodbye.
That day, I turned and ran without a word. I would like to say it was the first and last time, but that would make me a liar.
*********************
This time I’m not running away, I’m running to. I will never run again, and although, as you learn my story, you might believe strongly that I’ll make a liar of myself, I know I won’t. I can’t, not this time.
I’m an hour from Shreveport. There I will find another address, and I know, another point at which I have to continue my search. I’m still too far behind to have any hope of really finding her at my next stop. Doesn’t mean I’ll give up. As I said, I’m never running away again.

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!
