"Oh shit..come on Spence let’s get out of here!" said Ashley as soon as she spotted the guards approaching and everyone running off.  The brunette pulled Spencer in through aa double door to the inside and then down some stairs that took them near the hallway that led up to the arcade.  The girls stopped running and looked behind them as they caught their breath.  Seeing that they weren’t being followed the girls relaxed a little, and then started cracking up at how ridiculous it was to actually run away. What would they have even gotten in trouble for?

Once their giggles had subsided, Spencer became suddenly aware of the fact that they were still holding hands and was hit with a sudden wave of insecurity.  Ashley sensed the weird tension and immediately let go of the blonde’s hand.

   "Uh..do you um..wanna go see where everyone went?" asked the brunette in an attempt to end the akwardness.

   "Yeah..sure,"

The girls rounded to corner to the "forest" hallway and spotted a large group of the kids from outside.  They made their way over and found a spot to sit as they were greeted by everyone.  Ryan was sitting among all of the other kids and greeted Spencer enthusiastically when he saw her.  The blonde had completely forgotten about him with all the excitement and being with Ashley, and she felt sort of bad for ditching him.  For some reason, now that Ashley was sitting with her, Ryan all of the sudden wasn’t quite as appealing as he had been before.  She didn’t know whether it had to do with the confusing feelings she was experiencing over Ashley, or if she had just been caught up in the moment earlier. 

The group sat in the hallway and talked for a good hour and a half just getting to know eachother.  Spencer was actually having a lot of fun hanging out with all of these new, exciting people, not to mention the subtle flirty glances she and Ashley were giving eachother the entire time. 

As it got later and later, different people in the group said their goodbyes and made their way back to their respective rooms.

   "Hey, I should probably head back to my room," spoke the blonde softly to Ashley.
