Spencer squinted her eyes as sunlight beamed through her window. She turned to look at the clock, ‘10:30, thank God it’s a Saturday’ she thought. She began to recap the night before and smiled thinking to herself how things couldn’t have been any better. Her phone beeped on her dresser. She went over and flipped it open, 1 missed call from Ashley and 1 new voicemail. She smiled to herself as she dialed the number to check it.

"Gooooooooood morning!" Ashley’s voice sounded so cheery on the other end. Spencer laughed and kept listening.
"I just wanted to call and check in, see how things we’re going..ummm, you know i’m not a morning person buuuuut I was thinking that if your fam isn’t doing the signature ‘Brady Bunch Breakfast Get-Together’ that maybe we could hang..so call me back. Bye!!"

Spencer rushed downstairs. Much to her surprise Glen and Clay we’re eating a bowl of cereal and her dad was sprawled out on the couch flipping through the channels.
"Where’s Mom?" she asked.
"Something at the hospital." Clay replied pouring more Lucky Charms into his bowl.
"So no breakfast then?"
"You know dad isn’t so great at the morning scene." said Glen smirking at his father.
"Hey!!" Arthur shouted. "I can’t help it.."
Spencer cut them off. "Easy boys. We all know that Mom usually takes care of breakfast and that Dad is a great cook, even if it’s just with dinner.. so let’s leave it at that?", she said walking back upstairs.
"What are you having then?" Arthur asked.
"I think I’ll go to Ashley’s or something. Don’t worry, Dad!"

As soon as she got upstairs she dialed Ashley’s number.
"Hello?"
"Hey, you! Still up for breakfast? I’m starved and no one in this house is planning on cooking anything anytime soon." Spencer said with a laugh.
"Definitely, how long before you’re ready?"
"Not long. Go ahead and drive over. I won’t take long ok?"
"Okey dokey see you in a bit!"
"Byyyyee!" Spencer said as she shut the phone and tossed in onto her bed. She slipped into some jeans and a t-shirt. She threw her hair into a sloppy ponytail and reached for a jacket. She hesitated for a second, then went over to her closet and picked through until she found the black hoodie Ashley had let her borrow a few days ago. It still had the smell of Ashley’s spicy perfume. Spencer slipped it on and re-did her hair, pulling it up into a bun. 
She gave her teeth a quick brush and decided not to spray any perfume on, she didn’t want to ruin the smell the hoodie already had.
Her phone beeped on the bed. She flipped it open, 1 new text message: ‘ready?’ Spencer looked out her window and waved to Ashley. She grabbed a wad of money from the dresser and shoved it into her pocket as she headed for the stairs.
The men of the house were downstairs battling each other in a video game.
"Where are you off to?" Arthur asked, his eyes still focused on the t.v. screen.
"Just going to breakfast with Ashley. I’ll call you after a while. Love you!" she said as she shut the front door behind her.
Spencer hopped into the passenger seat and smiled at Ashley as she reached out her arms to hug her. Ashley hugged back absorbing the warmth from the blonde’s body.
"About last night.." Ashley started still hugging.
"Thank you for bringing me home. I’m sorry I fell asleep. But I had a great time. It was…really special." Spencer pulled away and started blushing.
"No problem at all. It was special for me too.." Ashley said smiling as she began to pull out of the driveway. With her eyes focused on the road she turned up the radio. She rested her hand on the console but it wasn’t there for two seconds before Spencer reached out and clasped it with hers. Ashley smiled but kept on staring to the front. She felt Spencer look at her, so she caressed her hand with her thumb as she continued driving with the other hand. Damien Rice blared through the speakers as the two sat without saying a word.
