I woke up in a fog replaying eveything that happened the last 5 days. I couldnt just sit around anymore i decided to go for a run again. I ran to a park thats about 15 minutes from my house and sat on the bench. I grabbed out my phone and reread the message from spencer. Good night ashley it was fun seeing you again.I hope megan didnt scare you from being my friend because i want to get to know you...maybe lunch tomorrow? How am i supposed to feel about that...i have yet to respond to her because i dont know how. I think i should just tell her no thank you but i did tell her i want to get to know her...get a grip davies its just a girl. Spencer...I think lunch is a good idea meet me at the beach bar in an hour? I sent it off and waited for a response and it came and she said she would meet me there. I decided to run a little more then i headed home. I took a shower and tore through my closet looking for clothes that made me look hot for spencer. Once i decided on a black shirt and some jeans i left for the restraunt. I got there and i looked for specer and she had yet to arrive so i sat at the bar and waitd for her. A few minutes later i saw the door open and specer walk in. She had on a light blue shirt on and a black mini skirt i s war my heart stopped beating. I couldnt take my eyes off her, i was in a trance. I almost missed her talking because i was so lostin her beauty. "Hi ash want to get a table and eat or would you rather stare at me all day?" She asked laughing. "Oh...um sorry ya lets get a table." We went to our table and sat and ate. We talked about her traveling through europe and ow her husband had died. I found out that he died in a bomb explosion and he was given the whole military feneral. I saw the hurt in spencers eye and i vowed i would never let anything happen to megan. I swear the girl read my mind because she thanked me. "So you anna go for a walk on the beach." She asked I nodded and we left the restraunt. We walked in comfortable silence for about 10 minutes before we found a spot on the beach to sit. "So ashley your rich why the are you in the army" She asked "Everyone always asks me this..I joined because aftermy dad died i wasnt doing to well and i was going down the wrong road and i felt this would maybe help me get my lfe together. I mean i am almost done and i am not sure im renlisting but i did this for me. I have a music degree because of the army and a busniss degree because of them so when i come out i am going to take over davies records so kyla can just go back to designing like she wants to." She looked at me taking everything in i just told her. "That all sounds amazing ash." she looked like she wanted to say something but was afraid. Just then her phone went off and from the smile that went across her face i knew it was megan. I couldnt let her see the hurt in my eyes. When she hung up the phone i asked her if she was ready to go and she said sure. We walked back to the cafe and i gave her a hug and got in my car and went home. I really need a stress relief other than music and working out...ugh. I was sitting in our music room messing with some songs i had written a while ago and my phone went off. I didnt hear it or see it cause i had headphones on and was reading music. When i cam out of the booth i had 3 text messages and i was worried cause usually when i had more than on message it means that something bad happened. So i checked my phone and the first message was from sarah and she asked me to go to dinner and i replied yes of course. Then the next was from spencer saying she had a good time and that she hoped she could see me tomorrow before i left. THe last one was from megan... and it said Ma'am i know im supposed to call you ashley but seeing as how tomorrow is our last day as civilians ill get back used to calling you ma'am. Ma'am im asking for a unit transfer because i cant work with the women who may take my girl from me. I know you havent meant to hurt me and i know you wont hurt her but it huts knowing she has feelings for you even though she isnt sure what they are. Im sorry. I sat rereading the message and decided i should back off spencer and tell megan she should stay with me so i can keep her safe. So i texted her that and told her i only like spencer as a friend and that i wont take her girl from her and she needs to stay with me so i can protect her. Then i invited her and spencer out to the club tomorrow fo drinks and a replied that they would both bethere and i smiled at that thought. It was about 5 and i was on my way to meet sarah for dinner. We meet at this fancy restraunt that i never knew existed. She looked stunning in a purple dress and i thought she looked like an angel. I couldnt help but smile at her and be happy that i had her all to myself for now. I hate having to leave her but i didnt intend to come home and find a girlfriend i just intended to come home and have fun and blow off some steam thats all and i got a whole lot more that i intended. We sat down for dinner and just enjoyed each other and laughed and had fun. "so your coming up to the club tomorrow?" She asked hoping she would get to see me my last day. I caught her shyness and smiled "yes im coming up there and singing something for you and i invted megan and spencer because its megans last day and i wanted her and her girl to have some fun." With those names i swear i heard her heartbreak. She looked down and i picked up her chin with my hand and kissed her deeply. "Hey we are just friends and your the one im with ok not her." she smiled and nodded. We ate the rest of our dinner not thinking about anything not even the fact that i was leaving in a little over 24 hours and we had yet to decide what we would be when i left. After dinner we went to my house and watched movies she actually fell asleep in my arms on the couch. When i woke up at 6am she was gone but there was a note on the table. Ash sorry i had to leave i had to get home and shower for school sorry. Ill see you later tonight-Sarah. Ugh her and her stupid 7am class how could i forget. I laid back down and let sleep come over me again. I know ishouldnt have because i need to stay on my sleep pattern because i have two days back on base and then its off to Germany for 3 months or so...I dont want to think about that yet. Its 9am when i finally got out of bed and decided to go for a run. I ran through the park and to the beach. I decided to take a rest because i had been running for over an hour now and my limbs were hurting. I sat on a bench by the beach and just watched the people come and go until i saw her. That blonde hair glistening in the sun and her smile that shines through the dullest light. Shes with megan and i can see the are happy and laughing. They are splashing around and playing in the water. I decide to leave them be and just go on running. I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket and just ignore it and run harder and faster i need to get her out of my head and i need to do it quick. I run for another hour and i realise i need to head home and that will take awile. So i stop in a cafe and i grab a bottle of water. I rest for about 20 minutes and start to run back home when i feel my phone go off again and once again i dont want to answer it so i run harder and i push my self even more. I get close to home and i slow down to a walk and i decide i can fnally check my phone i had 3 messages one was from kyla telling me she loves me and she cant wait to see me when i get back home. The other was from sarah saying she cant wait to see me tonight at the club and that se had fun last night. The last was from spencer... So your sneaky and stalking me...haha...i seen you on the bench by the beach and i saw your smile. I know that we are friends and i cant wait to drink with you to party all night for you and megan. It was 2 and i had a while till i had to be at the club so i decided to take a shower and go to the record label like i told kyla i would before i left. I drove there and i swear i could smell fear on everyone as i walked in. I decided since today was my last day i would wear my fatigues because it makes people respect you more. As i walk in the receptionist goes to stand but someone else stops her and whispers in her ear. I laugh and walk to the elevator and goes to kylas office that is actually mine. It still has my guitar on the wall and pictures of me and my dad and tons of him with famous people. I laugh as i look at the photos i remember all of them. I had at least 2 dozens photos up of me with famous people and about 1 dozen were kyla and the rest were my dad. I sat at the desk looked through the paper work ad decided none of it was urgent. I went down to the studios and sat in on some of the "Hey ash nice to see you again." Josh our head producer was sat behind the mixers waiting for his artist to finish up. "Hey Josh nice to see you again so hows the band signings going?" "Its not we have only signed about 2 artists this year as compared to last year we had 4 at this time. Ash i think kyla is losing her drive we really need you back and to get your band back together." I thought about the guys and girls in my band. I missd them..."Hey where are the rest of the guys kyla told me they all worked here doing something or the other while they waited for me to come back home." He laughed "Tony is in studio c tuning the piano, Kevin is in the guitar room like always, Lana is helping troy with loading in the new equipment. Go see them." I walked over to the intercom and decided to make it a fun announcement. "Attention staff can i please have The Crew to studio A this means Fingers,Ace,Raven and t-dog oh and joshy-poo. Thank you." I cut off and looked at josh he was mad about me using his nick name but started laughing when he heard footsteps running towards the door and the door burst open and all 4 of them stood there with huge smiles on their faces. I was then tackled by them. "Omg rainbow when did you get back?" Lana asked me after they all let go of me. I told them all about my trip back home and all the girl drama they laughed. "So did you come here for the get away of the girls or to rock some stuff out?" Kevin asked. I told them to set up and it was great to see them all and how healthy we all looked after the drugs were was behind the drums smiling and troy was at the piano and the other two were tuning their guitars. "Its nice to see them again lets record these songs for the record company. I think it will be nice for them to know im still around making music and missing my fans." I looked at Josh and he nodded and i entered the studio and talked to the crew about recording a few songs that we wrote the last time i was home.
I found a line and then it grew I found myself still thinking of you I felt so empty and now Im fine But it's still burning when will you be mine Too much of the same stories in our lives / I think its time to change, don't you? (I think its time for us to walk away from here) Stories in our lives, we keep them all inside Now look at me still in your mind Our memories so intertwined Well you broke through and found your way And so did I no need to stay Do you remember lying on the beach so late at night Do you remember running through the sprinklers that night Do you remember all the songs that I have wrote for you I remember the way you made me feel when I was with you That look in your eyes I never thought that this would be true
We finished recording our songs and i told them to up load them so the fans knew the crew was still around . So josh tweaked the songs and uploaded them right away. Me and the crew went to the play room and sat around the pool table and played some pool.
"So which girl has you mind sweetie?" Lana asked me. Lana was my best friend and she has been since grade school so she has seen girls come and go out of my life and she knows i never really fall for them.
"Im honestly not sure i mean sarahis great and she knows everything about me but spencer when i look at her gosh i swear i melt and die. She has these eyes i get lost in and this body that s to do for swear i dont know what to do."
Lana sat there taking it all in. She decided it would be best not to say anything and just let me vent about my grl problems.
"SO my crew why dont al of you come to glow tonight and party with me like old days?"
They all yelled hell yes and we all started laughing and joking nd talking about old times. Gosh how i have missed them.
It was about 7 and i decided to head home to change and told the crew to meet me at the club when they were ready. I took a quick shower and changed into a little red dress. I wanted to look hot for who i dnt know yet. Well let me take a few deep breaths and go into this club...
