Spencer’s POV

“So… my friend Aaron is having a party tonight. I was thinking maybe we could go?” I say pulling my shirt over my head.

It’s been a couple of days since our amazing night, we haven’t been able to keep are hands off each other. Every time we’re alone we end up necked, but I’m not complaining. That night I was so scared because I know how important it was for her. I’m just happy I could be the one to help her get past her fears.

“You know I don’t like parties and plus don’t you want to just relax before tomorrow?” She asks sitting up in bed. Tomorrow my moms suppose to come over my house, so we can talk. I have decided to accept the fact that I can’t stop living because I’m afraid of getting hurt, because that’s something that everyone feels in life. I can’t expect everyone to be perfect, I’m not.  

“Come on, please. We’ll only stay for a couple of hours.” I say pouting and kissing her neck.

“Spencer…”

“Ashley…”

“You go to the party.” She says getting out of bed and slipping on an over sized t-shirt.

“What! No, come with me. I want to go and show off my sexy girlfriend.” I grab her and pull her down onto my lap. We don’t say anything I just hold her in my arms. I know she probably doesn’t want to go to the party because of her past, but I think going to this party will help her in her efforts to break free from it. Plus she did so well at the last party, at Mia’s house. “Please baby, I want let anything happen to you.”  

I guess letting her know that I’m here for her did the trick because now we’re dancing in the middle of a crowd living room.

“Spence, I have to pee.” Ashley whispers in my ear. I break away from her and grab her hand, leading her to the bathroom. I have been to so many of Aaron’s parties. Last summer I spent so much time in this house hanging out, drinking, nursing handovers.

When we get to the bathroom, Ashley lets go of my hand and goes in. I’m surprise there’s no line but whatever. I stand outside of the door, sipping on my second beer of the night. I know Ashley’s not to happy about me drinking tonight but I think I deserve it for the last week I spent not partying for her.
