“Mmmm” I moaned into her mouth, which just accelerated her attack on my lips.

Ashley had her hand still secured around the back of my neck and she brought her other one up to tangle in my long blonde hair. Her fingertips felt so amazing the way they soothingly massaged my scalp. Ashley’s head was resting on my forearm in my lap, while my other hand rested on her side, slowly caressing the skin just below the hem of her t-shirt.

The worked up brunette then trailed her hand that was latched around my neck down to just above my collar bone. Reaching down a little further, Ashley grasped at the top button on my blouse and slowly un-did it. I was so incredibly turned on just from her touch alone that it took me a few minutes to realize my shirt had been removed and tossed behind the couch.

I brought my hand up under Ashley’s t-shirt and ran my fingers along her well defined abs. Ashley was palming my right breast through my pink lacy bra, causing me to elicit a groan of satisfaction. I started to sneak my hand under her bra when I suddenly felt Ashley’s firm grip on my wrist, preventing me from going any further.

“I’m sorry Spencer but I can’t do this.” She told me with lust filled eyes. I could tell she was struggling with an inner battle of desire, but her expression was completely unyielding.

“What’s wrong?” I questioned her sudden insecurity.

“Look Spencer, I really like you and I want to get this right.” I nodded for her to continue. “What I’m trying to say is, I want to do this, but I really want to prove to you that you’re not just another notch in my headboard.” She finished; her dark chocolate eyes boring into mine with so much intensity.

I placed my hand on her shirt covered stomach and began tracing soothing circles on her lower abdomen. I then leaned down and placed a gentle kiss on her lips, which quickly escalated into a full blown make out session.

“Spencer” Ashley whined pulling away from my lips. “Quit makin’ this harder than it already is.”

“Sorry, you’re just so hot.” I replied then ran the back of my hand along her flushed cheeks.

“Lay with me?” Ashley asked with so much vulnerability in her voice.

I stood up then crawled in the space between Ashley’s small frame and the couch. Once I was all settled in, I grabbed the blanket hanging over the arm then draped it over our bodies. Ashley’s back was to my front and she wiggled her way into my embrace. My chin rested in the crook of her neck while my hand was intertwined with hers.

“Hey Spence?” Ashley spoke, interrupting the silence that had fallen around us.

“Mhm” I replied lazily, keeping my eyes closed.

“Will you be my girlfriend?” She asked and my eyes to shot open in surprise.

“Of course I’ll be your girlfriend.” I blurted out through a cheerful smile.

Ashley must have been holding her breath because I felt her exhale deeply. I then felt her grip tighten on my hand and she pulled me closer.

My exhaustion was starting to catch up with me and my eye lids began to droop. Ashley must have been just as tired, because I her breathing began to slow to an easy, even pace.

“Have a good nap my lil criminal.” Ashley mumbled through a yawn.

“You too Ash” I tiredly chuckled at the nickname she gave me.

And just like the night before, I let Ashley’s comforting scent pull me into a deep sleep.
