Spencer: (Sighs) Is this weird? (holds our joined hands up)

Ashley: Not unless you think it is...

(She leans in towards me, scooting toward my side. She wants to kiss me, and I’m thinking the same thing. She looks at me, then looks down. She smiles and giggles a little)

Ashley: Whats so funny?

Spencer: I don’t know. I’m just so confused...

Ashley: (I lead into her sentence)...and this is probably not helping?

Spencer: Actually, its the only thing I’m not confused about...but yet I am. I’ve known you for a whole 48 hours. But I have a question to ask...Its probably none of my business. I just want to know...that thing you wanted to tell me before dinner, before mom walked in. 

Ashley: (nods) Yeah?

Spencer: Are you...do you like...(I cut her off.)

Ashley: Do you?( I hold up our hands, still together) 

Spencer: I don’t know about anyone else, I just know you.

(She leans in and I stop her. As much as I wanted to kiss her, I knew I probably couldn’t stop myself after we did. I like her too much for that.)

Ashley:(whispers) Spence...if you aren’t sure then I wouldn’t...

(She stared at me, like “whatever” and smiled. Then layed down and turned off her lamp.)

Ashley: umm...ok. night? ( I layed down and got under the covers. Then, she turned towards me. I could see her blue eyes in the light from the window...the “moon light” as cliché as that sounded...)
