A drop from above fell onto Spencer’s delicate hand, which clung tightly to the base of the window sill. Forming a miniscule pool of water, emotions of betrayal burned into her skin. She stared long and hard through her foggy vision into the distance trying to locate Ashley. The life had been drained from her lips and she remained speechless, words jammed within her throat. The figure in the window squirmed, but found herself too weak to swing her other leg over. Trapped and caught in such a vulnerable position, Spencer felt like a complete fool for running after a kniving fox like Ashley. Deciding to make one more attempt, the devastated blonde concentrated all her might into her hands, and once again tried to swing her other leg over.

Night came all too quickly as Spencer caught sight of the sunlight disappear before her blurred eyes, and blackness following immediately after. The warmth emerging from what she thought was the sun, intensified, however. Perceiving herself to be in a dream-like state, Spencer felt weightless, as her entire body was lifted off the window sill. The dazed blue eyed girl landed on the gravel, crunching beneath her feet, and slid downward along the arms of her reappearing companion into a rejuvenating peck on the lips.

Spencer’s eyes shot wide open, coming face to face with a bronze skinned goddess whose radiance was veiled by the shade created by the closeness the two had formed. Ashley opened her eyes slowly, as if a mystery lay hidden beneath her lashes, reluctant to reveal it. Looking into her eyes at that instant, Spencer caught a glimpse of the ruthless romantic’s reciprocated feelings for her. Ashley instinctively turned her head, her gaze spun away from her intuitive friend.

“So, you never answered my question…” Ashley spoke trying to distract Spencer, from what, she wasn’t sure of.

There was something about how the streaks of light illuminated the redness in Ashley’s brunette locks that possessed Spencer to grab hold of a startled Ashley’s waist and spin her around in a now dominant Spencer’s direction. Spencer trailed one finger agonizingly slowly down Ashley’s cheek in the same manner as she had in Ashley’s fantasy down the space between her breasts.
