Spencer’s POV

Ashley and I came back soaking wet from our swim. My mother and Glen both questioned us as to why we where both dripping wet in our clothes. Ashley simply said that we got hot and went swimming. To say they didn’t completely believe us wouldn’t be a far stretch. Both of their faces had that o really look plastered across them.

Ashley was going to make another comment about our current situation, but I pulled her away to head upstairs to shower before any other words could be uttered.

"They so think we where doing something else besides swimming."

"Well, technically we where before that, Spence." Ashley smirked at me and then continued to gather her clothes and shower supplies. I did the same.

"Hey Spencer you know what they say. Conserve water and shower with a friend!" That statement came out hopeful and flirty.

"And give my mom and brother more ammo to tease us with, I don’t think so Ash." I’m so reconsidering that but I’m so scared that we will be walked in on.

"Rain check?" She pulls me closer and places a couple of small kisses to my neck and shoulder before leaving me regretting my decision at that very moment.

Paula’s POV

"They’re getting really close Glen. Maybe, I should move Ashley into a different room, so they won’t be tempted to have sex with each other." Expressing my opinion, I look at the stairs that the girls disappeared on a couple of seconds ago.

"Mom, if they’re gonna have sex, you moving Ashley isn’t gonna stop them." He’s right. "Besides, it’s not like Spencer could end up pregnant if they do." True. I guess teenagers will be teenagers and there’s nothing I can do about it.

"You’re right Glen. I’ll let them be."

Ashley’s POV

Spencer has been so busy this week getting ready for the barrel competition coming up this weekend that we’ve had hardly any time together. I miss her. The competition is important to her, so I’m trying to be supportive. It’s just so hard not being around her all the time. She’s become my reason for breathing. She’s my everything. What am I going to do when the summer is over? I’m almost positive my mom wouldn’t let me stay here since she would lose all her spending money. It’s in the will. As long as I am in her care, she has access to my inheritance until I’m eighteen. I on the other hand would love her to lose it all. Picturing her working at Wall-mart, makes me very happy most days. Well soon enough, she won’t have my money at her disposal anyway. I’ll be eighteen in November, and I will be free of her for good.
