   Author's note: This story is part of a loose series of stories I have
written that begins with Ashlee and Naiya's Sleepover and Macy's Crush and
is directly preceded by A Sudden Change.  There are also other stories in
the series that follow Naiya's path that I've already written (Naiya's
Fresh Start and Naiya's Homecoming).  Those technically come after this
one, so if you feel yourself enjoying the story, but also a bit lost
regarding the back story feel free to ignore Naiya's stories and just start
from the beginning and work your way back.

   I'd also like to point out that I edited this myself, so please be
forgiving of any small errors you might find while also feeling free to let
me know if there's any glaring oversights I've made either editing or just
in the story itself.  As long as it's constructive I'll be glad to read
whatever it is any of you have to say.

   That being said, I do hope you enjoy my incredibly long and at some
points very slow story.  If you do rest assured there will be more to come.
If you don't, well... that's okay too.  Either way I thank you.

   Ashlee loved Macy more than she'd ever loved anyone or anything in her
life.  She knew this was true without even having to think about it.  It
was just an indisputable fact that was beyond question just as it was a
fact that Macy returned that love fully and truly without any reservations,
qualifiers or any other such nonsense.  Their love was beautiful and true
and it was something that Ashlee cherished more than life itself.

   Of course, it hadn't exactly been an easy love.  After all, the
beginning of their relationship had hardly been perfect, but that hadn't
mattered then and it didn't matter now.  So what if they had both been on
the rebound from the first real relationships of their young lives?  So
what if they'd both discovered on that very same night when they first made
love with so much soft passion that they'd both been keeping secrets from
each other?  Did it matter now that they were together?  Of course not. 
All that really mattered was the new closeness they felt for each other and
the comfort they felt in the other's arms and lips and so much else
whenever they were together.  The emotional and awkward beginning was
nothing compared to that.

   By the time they'd left for school the awkward beginning was barely an
after thought.  About the only awkwardness that remained was the strain
their love put on Macy's relationship with her step sister Naiya, but even
that hardly seemed to matter.  After all, any strain there was a direct
result of Naiya's actions and that made it easier for Macy to fall in love
with Ashlee guiltlessly even as she tried her best not to let her
relationship with Naiya completely fall apart.  It would take quite a bit
for Macy to succeed in doing that, but eventually she found something of an
equilibrium when she discovered that Naiya realized that the fault for
destroying the friendship and love she'd had with Ashlee rested entirely
within herself, but that was another story altogether.

   The love that had quickly developed between Ashlee and Macy was strong
from the very start and even that seemingly significant hurdle was no true
obstacle to their feelings by the time they'd left for college to
