a/n: I have always wndered what would've happeded if Ashley had the baby...so i decided to try out a story about it...let me know what you think

Ashley woke up and smiled at the sight of Aiden sleeping peacefully next to her. She ran her hand through his hair and gently kissed his lips. He opened his eyes and looked at her lovingly for a minute before kissing her back. All of a sudden, their perfect moment was interrupted with the sound of a baby crying.

"I guess Haylee is awake," Ashley said with somewhat of a sigh. She loved her baby more than the world, but it was hard to keep up with school all day and a crying baby all night. For the past year and a half, ever since Haylee was born, Ashley had been operating on close to three hours of sleep a night and it had definitely began to take a toll on her mind and body. She slowly crawled out of bed and over to Haylee's crib. Once she saw her beautiful baby girl laying there so helpless, her tired mood was pushed aside as she focused all of her attention on feeding, and dressing her baby for the day.

Because it was a Tuesday, and Ashley and Aiden were only juniors at King High, they had to get themselves ready for classes in the midst of all other chaos. It was times like this crazy morning when Ashley often wondered what her life would be like if she didn't have Haylee, but she could never quite picture it. After all, she loved Aiden and he was a wonderful father to Haylee, helping out whenever possible.

By seven twenty they were all set to go and Aiden drove the three of them to the nearest daycare to drop off Haylee while they were at school. As they pulled up in the school parking lot, Ashley knew they were going to be late to first period because she had insisted that they grab a quick coffee. She dashed to her locker and attempted to find her history book. After a minute of searching, she gave up and slammed her locker door shut. Just as Ashley turned around, an unfamiliar blonde girl bumped into her and spilt the remains of her coffee everywhere.

Ashley was annoyed after an already stressful morning and she shouted at the girl, "Watch where you are going!"

Surprisingly the girl replied, "I am new and I am just trying to find my way around. What is your problem?"

"Bitches like you that make mornings miserable!" Ashley screamed as she stormed off. During the entire first period, which Ashley had been late to, she couldn't keep her mind off the new blonde girl who, for some strange reason, she couldn't wait to see again.

It wasn't until lunch that Ashley caught sight of the girl again, but as soon as she did, she approached her quickly. "Hey," Ashley said softly "you're the new girl right?"

"Yah, and you're crabby morning girl right?" Spencer retorted.

"Ouch, but I guess I kinda deserved that huh?" Ashley laughed.

"Kinda."

"So anyway, I'm really sorry about that; it was a crazy morning at my house," Ashley explained.

"It's okay. It happens to everyone." Spencer said sweetly.

"So, what's your name?" Ashley asked thankful that the blonde had forgiven her.

"Spencer Carlin."

"Nice to meet you Spencer Carlin. I'm Ashley Davies." Ashley replied while sticking her hand out to shake Spencer's.

For the first time, Spencer looked up at Ashley only to be shocked by how beautiful she was. She started in awe for a minute before realizing how dumb she probably looked. "Um, nice to meet you too," Spencer answered while shaking Ashley's hand.

"Where are you from?" Ashley asked curiously.

"Ohio."

"That's a long way from here."

"Yah," Spencer said and giggled.

"How do you like it here so far?"

"It's different," Spencer answered truthfully.

"Well, you got any plans for tonight?" Ashley asked hoping that she would be able to have some time to get to know this girl who intrigued her so.

"Nope. Do you?" Please say no.

"Not unless you wanna hang out." Ashley subtly suggested. Please say yes!

"Sure," Spencer accepted. Both girls were thrilled and neither of them had any idea as to why.

"Meet me in the parking lot after school. Aiden has practice so it'll just be you and me."

"Aiden?" Spencer asked sadly, knowing where Ashley was going with it.

"My boyfriend. He's the star of the basketball team," Ashley explained suddenly regretful for mentioning it at all.

"Oh," Spencer softly said as she looked away. Oh well, why do I even care anyway?

The bell rang, breaking the awkward silence and they muttered "see you later" and headed to fifth period.
