” Ashley: “ What!?” Spencer: “You and him. That’s what” Ashley : “Nothing.” Spencer: “You’re lying” Ashley: “No, I’m not. Hey, I freaked you out yesterday didn’t I?” Spencer: “No, not really” Ashley: “Come on.” Spencer: “Yeah, you did.” Ashley: “I knew it. Uh, sorry. My shrink thinks it's because I like to be different. I just think it's because, well I like to freak people out.” Spencer: “Well, you succeeded.“ Ashley: “Thanks, that’s good? Right? Ok well anyways I had a totally above average day yesterday." Spencer: “Me too, thanks.” Ashley: “No problem.”
Just then some students walked past us holding a sign advertising for the school dance. Just the thought makes me gag.
Spencer: “So, are you going?” Ashley: “Wait to the dance? Ah no. Never been to one. Not gonna go.” Spencer: “Well that can change. I think my brother’s going to ask you. He thinks you’re hot.”
Ashley: “Yeah, he‘s got that right.” Spencer: “And hot chick can’t resist basketball player.” Ashley: “Shut up! He said that?” Spencer: “Yeah.” Ashley: “Please tell me he’s not the brains of the family. Well, are you gonna go?” Spencer: “I have to. Cheerleading thing.” Ashley: “Right. Well, good you can tell me how much it sucks. See ya Later.” Spencer: “Bye.”
I walked off to my last class of the day and prepared myself for a long nap. Sleep came easily and to my surprise Spencer was there. We were in my bed and I was telling her the story of my girlfriend. Instead of looking frightened she had a different expression. What was it? Was she... Intrigued? With my hand on hers she laced her fingers with mine and smiled at me. That’s about the time my teacher slammed a book on my desk to awaken me.
