So...its been a while. I finally got my laptop back after like 8429384 years. And now I'm going to try and start updating more regularly.

Sorry about the long ass wait and the really short chapter.

And thanks to those of you who are taking time to actually read this stuff. :)

Chapter 6

So after I dropped Spencer off at her house after our date; yes, date, I went back to my house only to find Kyla and Jess making out on the couch…again. Ugh, insert eye roll here.

"Hey! Get a room!"

"Nah, we're good here," Jess replies with a smirk. "Maybe you should get a room and just sit in it by yourself. You know, since your 'date' with Spencer went so well."

Again with the air quotes. "I'll have you know that our date, notice how I did not use air quotes, went great. That is until her mom called and told her that herbiyfdohwjd."

"Uhh what?" Kyla asks confused.

"I said it was all good until her mom called and told her that she flew her boyfriend in from Ohio."

"Oh shit, that sucks!"

"Yeah, tell me something I don't know."

"So what are you gonna do now?" Jess questions.

"I have no idea. I really like Spencer, so I'm just gonna have to show her that what she really wants is me and not her stupid boyfriend," I say.

"No," Kyla states. What the hell is she telling me no for? "No Ash, you cannot sabotage other people's relationships."

"But I—"

"No, I will not let you ruin Spencer's relationship just because you have a crush on her."

"Its not just a crush though! I actually like this girl!" I yell.

Both Kyla and Jess look surprised because its been a while since I've really liked a girl.

"I'm going to just go to my room. Don't bother me," I say angrily.

Now I'm just lying on my bed trying to figure out what the hell is going on with me. I mean I've barely known Spencer for a week and I already want more from her than just sex. I'm fucking screwed. This feeling is just so new to me. AAHHHHHHHHH! There are so many thoughts and emotions running through my mind. I'm gonna go crazy, I have to do something to get my mind off of what Spencer might be doing with her boyfriend. Ew.

Instead of torturing myself with thoughts of Spencer and her boyfriend, I try and come up with ways to show Spencer that I really do care for her.

When I finally come up with a plan that I deem despicable enough, I decide to go to sleep and dream of a better reality.

It is now Monday morning and it just so happens to be the first day of school. Ew. I didn't hear from Spencer at all after our date, but I guess its because she was busy with her stupid ass boyfriend.

Kyla jumps out of the car as soon as I park and launches herself into Jess. Ugh, they cannot go more than two hours without seeing each other, its sickening…and kinda cute, but don't tell them I said that!

I spot Aiden standing by his car talking to some dude so I decide to go see him since its been a while.

"Hey Aiden! I missed you!" I hug him. I haven't really hung out with him too much since the pool party and I've really missed him.

"Hi Ash," he laughs, "I missed you too!" I give him a big smile.

"Oh hey, I want you to meet Mark, he just moved here and he plays basketball too!" Aiden exclaims.

"That's cool. Its nice to meet you Mark," I say shaking his hand.

"Same here," he says, "So are you Aiden's girlfriend?"

Instead of answering him, both Aiden and I burst out laughing.

"Oh God – haha – no." I say between laughs. Mark looks confused and before I can say anything to fix his confusion, Spencer walks up to us.

"Hey Spencer," I give her a 100 watt smile.

"Hey Ash," she say with a smile that doesn't really reach her eyes. I wonder what's up with that.

"Hey babe," Mark says, putting his arm around her. Oh hell no. Please tell me this is a cruel joke. Why is this fool here at school?

"This is my girlfriend, Spencer," Mark says proudly. No shit Sherlock. You just put your gross gorilla hands on her and she actually let you…I think that right there is a huge declaration of love on her part. I fucking hate my life.

"Yeah, I know who she is," I gritted through my teeth.

"Hey Ashley," that's Spencer, "can I talk to you for a minute…alone please." I hope that's code for I'm going to leave my boyfriend for you and then we can ride off into the sunset on a rainbow colored unicorn.

"Uhh, yeah sure," I reply. "Bye Aiden. " Ha, take that Mark! I didn't say bye to you!

We started walking away from the parking lot and toward the lockers.

"So, uhhh, what did you want to talk to me about," I question.

"Look, I just want to apologize about Saturday. And I'm also sorry about Mark." Why is she sorry about him, he's her boyfriend. She doesn't owe me any explanations. Wait – I think this is a sign. This is probably her way of saying that she wants me. Oh yeah, that's what this is.

"—and he's going to stay here for the semester." Huh, what? Was she talking the entire time? Oops, I really need to stop zoning out. "Ashley, are you ok?"

"Um, yeah, I'm fine. That's great," I lie. "I bet you really missed him," I say giving her an awkward 'friend punch.'

She doesn't seem to buy my line of crap.

"Really Ashley, that's all you have to say? I thought you actually liked me, but I guess all you wanted was to try and get into my pants!" She turns around and storms off. Oh great, she's pissed.

"Spencer wait!" I run after her and ignore all of the kids staring at us…what a great way to start the school year. She keeps going and walks into a classroom right as the bell rings. Oops, looks like I'm late…if only I actually cared.

I walk into my first class fifteen minutes late. I decided that since I was already late a few more minutes couldn't hurt.

"Hi there, are you a new student?" some chick asks me as I enter the room.

"Psh no, I'm just late, and you are?" I reply.

"I'm your new English teacher. You can call me Ms. Jones." She tells me. Damn, she's hot, not as hot as Spencer but let's just say that I won't mind coming to this class anymore. "And next time, please don't be late. You can take any seat that is open…"

"Ashley Davies. Everyone calls me Ashley, but you can call me tonight." I say winking at her and making the class burst out laughing. Its just a little harmless flirting, and maybe she can help take my mind off of Spencer. Plus its been like 843 days since I've used a pick up line…I was going through withdrawals.

She smiles slightly while shaking her head, "I am going to have to turn down your offer, but how about you go sit down so that I can start teaching again."

I turn around after giving her a nod and I immediately spot Jess and Aiden sitting in the back with matching smirks on their faces. Thankfully there's an open spot right next to them. I have a feeling this class is going to be a blast. My mind drifts off and I start thinking about Spencer. There's just something about her that I can't get enough of. Too bad I pissed her off like no other. I guess I just have to make it up to her and I think I have the perfect to do just that.
