To The End
Ashleys POV
"Ashley are you going to go to the bridal shop with me this afternoon?" Christine was determined to get into Marthas face and how much I wanted to see that event but I had alot of homework So I figured I would just wait for Spencer to get off of work so we could do our homework together.
"No I can't. I have to finish up my homework with Spencer when she gets off of work."
"Ok well theres dinner in the fridge so all you have to do is warm it." Wow you know when I think about mom before I went out to California she never was really around for me. I always had to fend for myself for dinner but ever since I came home shes been around more. Weird huh. She probably just missed me. Hahaha.
Christine left and I glanced at the clock. 7:30. Ugh another 30 mins before she gets off. I walked upstairs and started my homework anyways.
I laid on my bed reading and finishing up some last part for my math class when I noticed the time.
9:47 P.M.
Where is she?
My eyes were really heavy and I could feel the sleep coming. I didn't think that I was really that tired but apparently I was. My head hit the bed and I could feel myself go into sleep and it felt good.

Ring Ring Ring
Ughhh you got to be kidding me.
What time is it?
1:24 A.M.
Spencer never came over last night. We were suppose to do homeowork together. Well she could of at least called me and told me she wasn't going to come.
Ring Ring Ring
Freakin A it's the stupid ass phone. I reached over to the night stand and picked up my cell phone.
I wipped my eyes and glanced at the caller ID.
Glen.
Why would Glen be calling me for?
"Hello."
"Ashley! It's about time. I've been calling you for the last hour."
He sounded like he was out of breathe and was talking a mile a minute. What is his deal?
"Glen I was sleeping. What's going on? Why are you calling so late?"
I sat up on the bed waiting for his responce but he didn't say anything.
"Glen! What's going on?"
I was starting to freak out myself. I didn't have any miss calls from Spencer about tonight. Just calm down Ashley. Shes fine. Shes got to be fine.
"She was walking through campus to get to her car after work and someone grabbed her and pulled her behind the bushes."
I stopped breathing. My heart stopped beating. The tears started pouring.
"Did he?" Was all I could get out of my mouth.
It was a few more seconds before he came out with it.
"He raped her AShley." I closed my eyes tight and clutched the phone in my palm and I wanted to scream right there and then. This couldn't have happened. She did not deserve this at all.
"How is she?" I was breathing fast now not knowing what to think about the situation.
"She's not doing great. She's curld up in a ball on the hospital bed crying. She hasn't said anything since the cops left."
"I'll be there in a few minutes." I hung up the phone, grabbed my purse and keys. As soon as I had everything I ran down my stairs and went out to my car.
Once in my car I sat there clutching the wheel and crying my eyes out. My grip got tighter on the wheel and I could see my knuckles turn white from all of the pressure I had against them. Thats when I let out a scream. I high piercing scream that was needed after hearing everything about Spence.
I should of picked her up after work.
She should of called me.
I shouldn't of fell asleep.
It was a little while until I got to the hospital and when I got there I was scared to go in. How did she look? What exactly did the guy do to her?
I took a deep breathe and then I walked over to the hospital entrance and as soon as I walked in the whole family was sitting there.
The tears started all over again and just seeing them all there had made it even worse. This is my family and right now my girlfriend is in a hospital dealing with something that is really serious to have to go through.
Arthur stood up and came towards me as well as did the boys.
"Ashley she's going to be ok. She's going to be ok." I wrapped my arms around him and buried my head into his chest crying so hard.
Why did it had to happen to Spencer?
She's never done anything wrong to anyone. She's nice to everyone and here she had to be the victim. Of some stupid asshole. Ugh I would kill him if I saw him.
"Paulas in the room with her Ashley. Maybe you should go up there. I'm sure that she will want to see you." Arthur said as soon as he let go of me.
"Ok. What room number is she in?"
"114." I shook my head ok and I went to the elevator and went up to the room.
The closer I got to the room my heart was pounding even faster. The look of her face is going to kill me.
Room 114
I stopped and had my hand on the handle and took a deep breathe before I entered the room.
Spencer was in a room on her own and Paula was sitting on the side of her as she held onto her hand.
Paula must of heard the door open because she looked over towards the door and saw me standing there. I'm sure my face was super red from all the crying that I've been doing since I found out.
Paula waved for me to come over to her. I was scared.
How would you like to see your girlfriend lay in a hospital bed beaten up from a guy who raped her?
I know you would be scared to.
I slowly made my way over to the side of Spencers bed and Paula wrapped her arms around me and gave me a big hug.
"I'm glad your here. She's been asking for you." I closed my eyes as she let go of me and I was facing her as she was sleeping there on the bed.
I finally glanced down and I felt myself gasp for air.
He hit her a few times in the face. Her lip was swollen and cut on the side. Her eye looked like it was smacked pretty good. There was a small gash on the side of her eyebrow.
Why did this happen?
Paula left the room and I sat down in the chair next to her bed and I took her hand into mine.
"Spencer I'm here." No movement. She was sound asleep and I was glad for that. So I continued to whisper to her.
"I'm sorry that I wasn't there to pick you up for work. I should of been there no matter if you had your car or not. You shouldn't have been alone. Can you please forgive me?" I kissed the inside palm of her hand and gentle placed a feather light kiss on her forehead so I wouldn't wake her up.

"ASHLEY! ASHLEY!" My head was jolted up by the screaming and it was Spencer having a nightmare.
"Spencer! Wake up! Wake up Spencer!" I shook her out of the dream and she laid there breathing so hard from terror that I could see in her eyes.
"Oh my god Ashley." Spencer pulled me down to her on the bed and she held onto me for dear life and it hurt to see that from her. To see her look like this made things even worse if you ask me.
"I tried to call for you but you were no where to be found. I tried to call for you." Spencer kept on repeating it over and over to me as I tried to sooth her down so she would breathe better.
"Shh its ok. I'm here now. I'm never going to leave you again." The tears started as I heard myself say that to her as we laid there on the bed.
I'm never going to leave you again.

Days turned into weeks, which turned into a month.
Spencer and I are sitting in my room listening to music and she is doing homework that I brought her from her classes.
She hasn't gone back to school since everything happened that night. I don't blame her I would stay away from the place as well but I knew that she should at least try to get back into the swing of things.
"Are you going to go to classes tomorrow?" I asked her as I stood up from the bed and made it over to my closet to grap a hoodie. Fall was already here and I could feel everything getting much colder. Which means that the snow will be coming soon as well.
"I told you I'm not going back there Ashley. At least not yet." It's been over a month. Yeah sure I don't understand what she is going through right now but she should at least try.
"Spencer you need to get back to class. You need to get back to the way things use to be." She shot her head up towards me as I stood there in the center of the room stairing down at her with my hands in my hoodie.
"You don't know how I feel Ashley. You don't know how it felt to be raped or beaten because I was fighting him back. You dont know!"
"I know I don't know but you don't have to stop your life for that asshole. The police got him that night so I know that he's not going to be there when you get back."
I was not going to stop. She knew I was right but she didn't want to deal with it.
"Can we please stop talking about this?" Spencer threw her books on the floor and curld up on my bed with her back towards me.
Everything was put on hold for Spencer.
School.
Friends.
Family.
The Wedding.
Me.
I know that this shouldn't be an issue but it kind of is. She flinches when I touch her. When she kisses me she only gives me a kiss on the cheek and you know what I'm fine if it makes her feel better. I just don't know what to think of it. Almost like it's my fault.
Jaimie has come by a few times and calls all the time to see her but she pushes everyone away. I'm shocked she hasn't shuved me out of her life as well.
xxxx
"I don't know what to do anymore Kyla. It's like she's pushing everyone awat from her and I think I'm going to be next. Maybe she needs to see a shrink or something."
"It's only been a month Ashley. Just give it some more time she'll come around. I'm sure that she will be fine and don't stress about it so much. She's not going to push you out of her life. She loves you and you know it. It's just taking her more time to deal with this all."
I sat there in my kitchen looking at some bridal magazines my mom told me to look through for dresses and that they could be ordered to us. That was a good idea. We already had everyones measurements so we didn't have to worry about that.
"Yeah your right. I just need to give her more time. Thanks for taking time out to listen to your crazy sister." I heard Kyla laugh on the other end and it felt really good to hear someone laugh for once around me.
"You know I'm here for ya. But I got to go because Aiden is coming over with Madison."
What? Madison?
"As in Aidens Ex-Girlfriend Madison?"
"Yep that would be her. We actually decided to be friends instead of enemies which I'm totally fine with. I just hope she doesn't try to come after my man or something."
"Weren't you the one who went after her man?" I started laughing hard and thought it was hilarious.
"HEY! I did not steal him from her. He came to me." We both laughed and we said our goodbyes. Just as I was hanging up the phone Spencer comes walking into the kitchen.
She must of woke up from her sleep.
"Were you talking to Kyla?" She asked me as she took a seat next to me on the island.
"Yeah we were just talking about things over there in LA."
"So you weren't talking about me?" Uh oh.
"You came up in the conversation once or twice. Why?"
Spencer shook her head and looked down at the magazines but then stood up.
"I'm going to go home."
I stood up fast and looked at her.
"Why? What's wrong? I thought you asked your mom if you can stay the night?"
"I did but I just want to be home now. I just want to be with my family." Wow I really took that to heart.
"Um ok. Here let me grab my keys and I'll drop you off."
I looked at her and she looked like she wanted to protest my invitation for a ride. Instead she agreed on the ride.
"Fine."
xxxx
"So should I be expecting you tomorrow morning for school?" I thought that I would try one more time.
"No you won't. I have to go." She leaned over to me and kissed me on the cheek and I wanted to say something to her but I didn't.
I was going to leave it alone and not think about it anymore. If she wants to come to me about this all then cool, but I wasn't going to force her to talk to me about this even if I think that she should at least talk to someone.
"I love you Spencer." I said to her as she got out of the car. She didn't say it back to me. Instead all I heard was the car shutting and my heart breaking at the idea that Spencer was having second thoughts about me. About us.
I love you.
(A/N: Ok don't ask me where this came from because it just came to me and when I think of something as I type then I just put it down. If you guys hate it I'm sorry but for some reason I was getting bored with the ff and when that happens I stop writing and I don't want to do that. I love writing. I hope you guys are still reading and enjoying it if not then be sure to let me know. Thx again for the reviews!!!)
