Ashley's POV

I saw Kyla's face; I saw the look her eyes were giving me. I quickly shoved Aiden off me and ran up to Kyla.

"This really isn't any of my business," Kyla said as she started walking out of the room.

"You're right, it isn't, but I need to talk to in the hall for a second," I didn't wait for Kyla to respond I just shoved her out of my room and shut the door.

"Why did you come in my room?" I acted as if it was her fault as I put my hands on my hips.

"I--I wanted to see if you wanted to join me tomorrow when I go visit Spencer in my free period. But it looks like--" I rudely cut Kyla off.

"You don't know what this looks like Kyla. Spencer demanded that I never see or speak to Aiden again. So I agreed, and I had to see Aiden one last time. That is it, okay?" I said to her with my eyes beaming into hers.

"Okay, I wasn't making a big deal about it. I mean, I can see why Aiden is here, but why you Ashley? Why would you betray Spencer like that? You told her you weren't going to see him and then BAM! You call him for one last night?" Kyla said with a smirk.

"Kyla, it is not like that. I just wanted to talk to my friend one last time. I am giving Aiden up, I do not need him. I need and want Spencer," I looked at Kyla wondering if she was going to run and tell Spencer, since they were becoming close friends.

I pleaded with my eyes and gave her a desperate look, "Kyla, please. Do not tell Spencer, this would break her heart. It means nothing to me at all, but Spencer wouldn't see that. Kyla, I am asking you please, keep this between you and me, please."

I know it was wrong to ask Kyla to keep this a secret but Spencer wouldn't understand. I don't want Aiden and I never needed him, I just wanted to have a final goodbye. Spencer could not hear this; she wouldn't be with me if she did.

I looked Kyla up and down waiting for her response. "Fine, Ashley. I think you should tell Spencer yourself, but whatever I won't get into the middle of this."

Kyla turned her back and started walking away. I grabbed her arm and she turned around and looked at me, "Thank you."

I let her arm go and she walked back into her room.

I walked back into my room and sight of Aiden on my bed made me sick to my stomach. "Aiden you need to leave. We had our last goodbye, now go." I said with an angered tone.

"What? Just 'cause Kyla ruined our fun? I don't want to go anywhere, besides I thought we were going to have the entire night together," Aiden smiled his stupid smile and patted the bed.

"No, we are done Aiden, leave." I crossed my arms and watched his face turn sad. I watched him put on his shoes, get his stuff, and leave.

"I guess this is bye, Ashley," he leaned in and tried to kiss me on the cheek and I turned my head and put my hand on his face. "It's like that huh?" Aiden said to me, I could tell he was getting mad.

"It's like that. Now do what I asked, leave." I went over, sat on my bed and watched him walk away not just out of my room but also out of my life. I feeling of relief came over me.

I woke up the next morning with a smile on my face. I realized today was the last day of school until summer. I was uber excited. I woke up, did my morning routine and headed out the door.

I pulled up to the school and no one was waiting for me like usual. No Spencer, no Aiden, and all of a sudden I felt alone. I got out of the car and all I could think about was Spencer.

I started walking to my first class and Madison bumped into me. I scoffed at her, "What's your problem?"

"Ohh, isn't she the saddest little lesbian," her and the rest of her clan laughed at her stupid little joke.

All of a sudden, I didn't feel like going to class. We never do anything on the last day anyways, and it wouldn't be the same without Spencer. "Screw it," I said to myself as I walked by to my car and stuck the keys in the ignition and took off.

Kyla's POV

It was the last day of school and I had no one to give me a ride. Ashley never gives me a ride, even though we just started getting along. Aiden, I roll my eyes at the thought of him. I wouldn't even take a ride from him if he offered it.

Even though, Madison and I were not close I decided to call her for a ride. Although, it was the last day and I was not in the mood to go to school. I am going to ditch school; it is only half a day anyways. I dialed Madison's number, "Hey you think you can give me a ride to the hospital to visit Spencer? I have no one else."

She told me yes, and she sounded oddly nice about it. She is coming over in an hour when she has her free period. I want to see Spencer; I think she has a right to know what I saw last night. I don't know, should I tell her? Or shouldn't I?

I'm not sure, I think am going to let it marinate and see how Spencer is when I talk to her.

It was a long hour later and I heard Madison honking in the driveway, I hop inside the car. "Thank you so much for giving me a ride."

Madison looks over at me as she starts to pull away, "No problem, I feel bad for you, with what happened with Aiden and all and what I have done to you. So, I said what the hell, might as well do some good in this world."

I looked at Madison with a confused look, she was less malicious than usual, and this is totally odd. "Well, thanks again. Off to the hospital!"

"Hey, so how is Spencer doing anyways?" Madison looked at the road then glanced at me as she asked the question.

"She is doing well. She only has two more days left in the hospital, and then they are releasing her. I mean she is going to be pretty sore for a long time, but at least she is getting outta that hospital bed soon."

"Well, tell her I said hi. I know I'm not always the nicest person to her, but I don't wish upon anyone to get shot." Madison said in a calm voice as if she actually meant it.

I was surprised at how sincere she just sounded and I was speechless. "Uh--will do. I'm sure she will appreciate the concern."

The rest of the drive to the hospital was in silence. We said our "byes" as I was getting out of the car.

I walked down the hall and to Spencer's room. I glanced through the glass to see if she was alone or not. "Damnit" I said to myself as I saw Ashley inside the room already.

I saw them laughing and joking around, they looked extremely happy together. I knocked before I entered and didn't bother waiting for a response.

Spencer's eyes lit up with surprise, "Kyla!! Wait, what are you doing here now? School day isn't over yet is it?

Ashley but in before I could barely open my mouth, "No school isn't out yet. Kyla what are you doing here?" I could see Ashley was mad and worried I was here.

"I uhh, ditched school today. I wasn't in the mood to go and it was our last day and nothing happens on your last day." I smiled and pulled up a chair on the other side of Spencer's hospital bed.

"Hey, uh Spencer can we talk alone for a sec?" I asked Spencer.

Spencer saw my pleading eyes, "Of course, hey Ash, do you mind?"

"No, not at all. I'll come back in about a half an hour," Ashley stood up and gave me the I'm-going-to-hate-you-for-the-rest-of-your-life-if-you-tell-her glare.

I smiled back at Ashley trying to give her a reassuring nod that I was not going to tell.

Ashley shut the door and Spencer immediately looked at me, "So, what's up?"

I really wanted to tell Spencer about the whole Ashley, Aiden thing, but I did not want to break her heart anymore. She looked really happy with Ashley in here. I dismissed the thought out of my head. None of my business, don't get stuck in the middle.

"The last time we talked, you were unsure about your relationship with Ashley. I wanted to see how you were holding up with that." I smiled and crossed my legs as I spoke.

"Oh, that. I thought you had some major breaking news for me." She paused and I thought Well, I kind of do, but I'm not telling.

"But yeah, me and Ash are going to stay together. I am going to give her the benefit of the doubt. Although, I did demand that she gets rid of Aiden and that he no longer be in her life."

"Oh, you think she can do that?"

"She can and she better. I know she loves me but when he is around her I tend to question and I don't want to do that any longer. I want to ask you something, though." She paused waiting for my approval.

"Go ahead, ask away."

"I want you to watch Ashley for me. I know, I know, that sounds weird. But I am not always with her, I just want to know if she slips up and has Aiden around her or hangs out with him. It sounds really stalkerish, and it makes me sound unsure about our relationship but I am sure that I want her, it's just if he is around her...he is going to try and steal her away from me again." Spencer smiled.

I thought to myself, wow is she like basically asking me to tell her about last night and what I saw. I promised Ashley. She did say it was a final goodbye and she never wanted Aiden. I cannot break Spencer's heart like this.

"Of course, if she slips up or whatever, you will be the first to know. But know this, she loves you so much, I know she will give up anything to be with you."

"I hope you're right." Spencer turned her head as she heard the doorknob moving. "Well, enough on this, Ashley is back."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ashley's POV

I opened the door and I saw Spencer smiling from ear to ear at me. I thought to myself, Kyla couldn't have told her anything, she is smiling at me. That's a relief. I feel as if I am hiding this from her, like I have something to hide. I don't though, I just don't want her know, she would die. I know it meant nothing and it will never mean anything between Aiden and I. But I am glad she didn't tell Spencer.

"Hey guys, how's everything? Have a nice chat?" I grinned while staring Kyla down.

"Yes, we sure did. We got caught up on everything." Kyla smiled at me like nothing.

"Great, so how about we all go for a walk?" I said to everyone.

Spencer looked at me and sighed, "We have to call my mom in here if you want me to walk again. It hurts really bad cause all of my weight shifts and it puts pressure on my wound. But if you want to call my mom in here, I am willing to walk. Heck, I have to get used to it. Two more days of this hell. I am sick and tired of this place, I am so glad you two come visit me all the time."

Spencer looked at me and smiled I could tell she was extremely happy about us. I smiled back at her, walked over, and held her hand. She looked down at our hands, looked back up at me, and smiled.

"I think we should pass on that walk. Your mom hates me, and I don't want to have some argument with her anyways." I said to Spencer.

"Hey, I understand." I heard a knock on the door and wondered who it could possibly be.

"Come in!" Spencer yelled, "God, I swear I am always yelling that."

Speak of the devil and she enters I thought to myself, "Hi, Paula," I said as I gritted my teeth.

"Hey, Spencer, are you ready for that walk? We have to get you used to walking, I know it's going to hurt, but you have to make it hurt a little so it won't hurt on a daily basis."

"Hey, Mom, can Ashley tag along with us?"

I looked over at Paula after Spencer asked her. I saw her give me the disgusted look she always gave me.

"I--I think it would be best if you and I just concentrated at the task at hand. I don't want any distractions." She looked over at me and jerked her head as if she had won Spencer over.

"Sorry, Ashley, Mom is probably right. Come by later if it isn't too late? I'll give you a call when I am done, sound cool?"

I shook my head and had an urge to kiss Spencer goodbye but I resisted and just went over and gave her a hug. "I will see ya later." I said as I walked out of the room with Kyla.

Kyla and I walked in silence to the car. We started talking as soon as we hopped in.

"I--" we both said at the same exact time, "You first," I said to Kyla.

"I didn't tell Spencer if that what you were worried about," Kyla stared at me.

"I um...I'm sorry if I was mean about it. But thank you for keeping your promise. With time, I think I will be able to tell Spencer about it, but I don't see the point. It's pointless to bring something up like that, I am done with Aiden." I smiled and it felt so relieving and great to say those words aloud, I am done with Aiden, I repeated it again in my head.

I pulled out of the hospital parking lot and noticed a Nissan Exterra pull out right behind me and follow. I looked in the rear view mirror and knew exactly who it was. I shook my head and rested my head in my hands. I let out a deep sigh and could not believe he was following me.
