“She asked Addison?” Maggie practically squeaked.

“Yeah”, I nodded.

“I thought they didn’t get on that well?” Maggie sounded very surprised, she wasn’t around at school to see how well they actually got on.

“No, they’re pretty close now.” I  confirmed as I held the underwear against me and looked in the mirror. “They are actually more similar than I realised at first, Kate too.” I caught her eyes in the mirror and recognised the darkening of arousal as she took in my reflection.

I had just been tinkering on the cars with Kate when Spencer called, I was curious to know what was up that couldn’t wait for school, so was Kate it seemed.

“What’s up?” Kate was curious and tossed me a rag to wipe off my hands.

“Spence needs to talk,” I shrugged my ignorance.

“She OK?” Her beautiful face creased in a frown, indicating her worry.

“I think so, I don’t know,” I second guessed myself. “I think it’s probably to do with Ashley.” I sighed and relaxed back into Kate’s strong arms as she came up behind me.

“They OK?” Her tone was worried and her arms tightened around me as she rested her chin on my shoulder.

“Um, yeah, I think so but I gave Ash that stuff we ordered for them after school this week.” The words explained my concern.

“Oh,” there was a pause, “think Spence will be OK?” Kate had helped me pick a few things for the couple so she understood where my thoughts were.

“I think that’s why she needs to talk, you OK with staying here?” I was hoping she wouldn’t feel hurt that Spencer had only asked for me given the likely topic of conversation.

“Nah, I’m good here babe, it’s you she needs right now Ad,” I nodded, I knew she’d understand.

“I better get going hun,” I freed myself from the embrace and turned for a kiss. “I love you Katie,” I murmured against her lips and she held me tight as she kissed me back.

“It’ll be OK babe,” Kate reassured me, knowing I needed a little support for what lay ahead. “I know how hard it is for you but she still loves you ya know.” She pressed her forehead against mine and I nodded.
