Spencer’s POV

“So…I had fun.” Ashley says leaning back on the front door to her house. We just got back from dinner. We spent the whole day together just hanging out at my house and then I took her to dinner.

“Yeah?” I take a step closer to her, resting my hands on either side of her face, on the door behind her.

“Yeah,” She says leaning forward and kissing me. “I love your kisses.”She says pecking me on the lips one more time before resting her forehead on mine.

“I can tell.” I say smirking leaning in to kiss her again. “So…” I start as I pull away from the kiss and watching her licker her lips before opening her eyes. “…I guess this is goodnight.”

“Yeah,” Ashley says looking away as I take a step back. I can tell she wants to say something else but we agreed that today we were going to forget about everything that’s going on and be happy today. So she lets it go for right now. “Love you.” She says turning to look at me.

“I love you too.” I say watching her go into her house.

“It’s three in the morning Spence.” Ashley answers the phone hours after our date.

“I know… I had to talk to you.” I sigh into the phone.

“Okay… what’s going on?” I can hear the sleep in her voice.

“You leave in four days.” I say into the phone.  I can her shuffling on the other end of the phone. She’s probably sitting up in bed.

“Yeah… I know.”

“You can move in with Mia. Her mo…”

“Spence…” She cuts me off.

“No. Ashley, you can move in with Mia, her mom doesn’t care. She’s hardly home anyway. I can get a job, save up for a couple of months and by the end of the summer we can have our own apartment.” I rush out so she can’t interrupt.

“Spence… I can’t.” She sighs into the phone.

“Why can’t you? You’re eighteen.” I say not seeing the problem.

“How am I going to support myself? I’m not going to use Mia and her mom.”

“I’m not asking you to. I don’t know why don’t you just talk to your mom or dad? They can support you till we figure something out.” I tell her getting out of bed and pacing my room.
