“What’s wrong?” Ashley asked with a look of concern on her face.

“Mmmrphhemmh” Spencer mumbled into the pillow.

“What?” Ashley asked picking up Spencer’s chin.

“Nothing’s wrong. It was perfect. You are perfect.” Spencer said smiling.

“I should have let you in on how I was feeling before I took off…I’m so sorry”

“Baby, its fine. You were upset…but you don’t have to shut me out when you’re hurting. I will always be here for you.” Spencer said stroking Ashley’s cheek.

“I know. It was just my mother showing up after all these years…it brought back a lot of repressed emotions. I guess we both had Mama Drama yesterday huh?” Spencer smiled.

“I’m surprised Marco hasn’t sent out a search party for us. Course he could still be sleeping…that boy can sleep for days on end.”

“Oh well there’s one thing we have in common.” Ashley smiled. “Man, your mother was giving me a death stare throughout that whole party. If she looked any harder she might have actually caused cancerous cells to form inside me.”

“Yeah well if it makes you feel any better she wouldn’t even look at me.” Spencer said softly tracing Ashley’s lips with her fingertips. “She was so mad after you stood up to her. She’s used to people just backing off and letting her win. I had one big blowout with her in high school…that was when I came out…she slapped me after I told her” Spencer let a tear fall from her eye and Ashley brushed it away. “I couldn’t believe it…my own mother slapped me for telling her who I was.”

Ashley kissed Spencer’s fingers that were still tracing her lips. “She should never raise a hand to you. Has she hit you since?” Spencer hesitated and nodded. “Well, sweetie, as long as you are with me, I will not let her ever hit you again. I’m your knight in shining armor….or is it knightess? Is there a feminine version of a knight? Or is it still a knight?”

Spencer pinched Ashley’s mouth shut. “Thank you.” Spencer leaned over to kiss Ashley on her pinched mouth.

“Mrmwhaiatpeionghkwionion?” Ashley tried to ask through Spencer’s fingers.

“Oops…” Spencer let Ashley’s mouth go.

“You know communication is so much easier when you actually let me use my lips to speak.”

“Well talking is not exactly what I want you to be doing with your lips at the moment.” Spencer said with a devilish grin.

Ashley shook her head. “My, what have I done? I have unleashed the sex kitten from within you…” Ashley pulled Spencer on top of her and kissed her neck.

“Mmmm” Spencer moaned as Ashley nuzzled her neck. “And that’s a bad thing?”

“I never said it was bad…I was just making an observation…” Ashley said licking around Spencer’s collarbone.

Spencer’s hips were involuntarily rocking back and forth as Ashley assaulted her neck. “So…Ash…what were you going to ask…god…before…you know…”

“Oh…” Ashley stopped kissing Spencer which caused the blonde to groan in frustration. “I was just wondering how you got in here…I didn’t leave the door open did I? I mean not that I’m complaining that you are here…especially since you’re naked and completely in love with my body.” Spencer slapped her on her arm. “Oh admit it…you’re addicted to me…”

“You are so full of yourself. To answer your question, Kyla gave me a ride here and let me borrow her extra key. She was really upset about last night…she really felt like it was her fault.”

“I know…she had no idea that my mother was married to the club owner. I guess we should go by later to make sure she’s doing alright. But right now…I just want to make love to my girlfriend.” Ashley pulled Spencer closer kissing her softly on her lips.

“So, Ash, does this change anything?” Spencer asked Ashley as she kissed her neck softly.

“Yeah.” Ashley kissed the top of Spencer’s head. “It makes me love you even more.”
