Smart In A Stupid Way

Chpater 1

(Ashley POV)

I am sitting in my car waiting for Spencer to come out of our apartment. She is moving to San Fransisco today. I don't know what I am going to do without my best friend. She tells me we will still talk everyday and I told her that over the phone is not the same and I can't believe she is really going to move away. Shes been there for me through everything since I was 16. We are 25 now and she is leaving. I turn and look at the passenger seat and she is seating there staring at me. I've hide my feeling from her. Its along time to hold feeling for someone but I could never bring myself to tell her. Plus, she has had so many boyfriends these past nine years. Yes, I HATED all of them. Only because I wanted to be them. I started up the car and pulled out of the parking spot. We are headed to the train station. We rolled the windows tight as they would go. It was a smoggy day.

"Have you ever had a lover, that you did not betray?" She looked up and asked me. I turned on the radio and looked the other way. She said, "Your smart but in a stupid way."

She had eyes like crazy diamonds
And you ran, with feet of clay
We rolled the windows tight as they would go
It was a smoggy day
She looked up and asked me if I ever had a lover, that I did not betray
And I turned on the radio and I looked the other way
She said you're smart, but in a stupid way

"You stand there staring, while your lover walks away." She added, as she grabbed her bag from the back seat. I exited the car and followed closely behind her. I am going to wait with her until her train leaves.

And this is the price that you pay
For being smart in a stupid way
You stand there staring while your lover walks away
Being smart, in a stupid way

We held each other tightly for what felt like an eternity. I didn't want to let her go. It seemed like it felt the same for her. I can't be sure though. She pulled out of the hug and kissed my cheek, saying goodbye and she would call me later. She disappeared onto the train and I watched the doors, they closed like eyelids and the train started to pull away.

The doors they close like eyelids
The train just pulled away

It's been 2 months since I watched her get onto that train. She broke her promise. She said everyday. I've talked to her twice since she let. Sometimes I still smell the perfume, that she was wearing that day. I also wonder if there's anyone, that I'll ever love in any way. Maybe. Maybe I'll grow up and be good someday. Maybe this pain I feel will go away. Maybe she will un-break her promise. Maybe just maybe she will come back.

How could I ever be so stupid? How could I let her go? How could I not fight for her? She's right, I am smart in a stupid way. Because I stood there and watched my lover walk away. I guess this is the price I have to be for being smart in a stupid way.

"It'll be fine, Ash. She will call and everything will be okay. You're love again and everything will be okay." Joey said, trying to make me feel better.

"So, why is my heart so hollow? Why are my dreams so shallow? And why don't I ever have anything else to say? And why is my love so far away?" I pleaded to her. She just stared at me. She looked like she was thinking about what I had just said.

So why is my heart so hollow
Why are my dreams so shallow
And why don't I ever have anything else to say
And why is my love so far away

"This is the price you pay for being smart in a stupid way. You stood there staring, while your lover walked away." She answered then turned on her heel and left the room.
