Chapter Fourteen

Ashley’s P.O.V.

I noticed Spencer was sitting by herself at the quad. It looked like she hadn’t touched her lunch. She told me she would save us a table. I loved the sound of us. Spencer looked so adorable reading a book. We had been together for a couple of days and I couldn’t be any happier for her believing in us and giving me a chance to make things right and for us to be a couple. I went towards her and covered her eyes with my hands. “Study break.” I kissed Spencer on her shoulder and removed my hands from her eyes.

“I almost thought you weren’t going to have lunch with me.” I sat by Spencer’s side and we both leaned in for a quick kiss. I couldn’t help the smile forming on my lips.

“I wouldn’t want to miss a moment with you or any moment we can have together.” Spencer looked surprised at my statement, but then she smiled. What can I say? I was turning into a softie, but I didn’t care.

“I love you, Ashley.”

“I love you, too. I…I got you something.” I revealed a jewelry box. “I was going to give it to you when we were going to date longer, but I didn’t want to wait and thought you may want the present now.”

Spencer did her trademark head tilt and looked at me in question. “What is it?” I chuckled.

“Open it.” Spencer opened the jewelry box to reveal a silver necklace, which had half of a heart and I had the same necklace with the other half of the heart. “You hold the other half of my heart.” A big smile spread across her beautiful face as she opened the box and she cupped my cheeks. She rested her forehead against my own.

“I love it, Ash. It’s beautiful. Thank you so much.” Spencer kissed me softly on the lips. I sucked on her bottom lip and she tangled her fingers through my curls. Spencer pulled back from the kiss with a smile. I put on the necklace for her and Spencer kissed me on my cheek.

“No problem.” I was gazing into Spencer’s blue eyes and I caressed Spencer’s cheek. It was so unbelievably easy to get lost in her eyes.
