(Spencer's POV)
Days passed by and it was almost the end of the semester. As my mother wasn't at all convinced with my decision of breaking up with my boyfriend, she didn't allow me to go out much. As if I care, I don't really have anywhere to go, or anyone to go out with. Just then my cell phone ringing broke me out of my thoughts. Ringing to… the Jonas Brothers? Ok last time I checked I made 'Lovebug' to sound in my cell phone only and exclusively when Ashley called. I mean, this really can't be true, it can't be…
-"Hello?" I answer my phone, unsure about who was going to answer me back.
-"Heeey Juudeee, don't make it baaaad…" Ok, first 'Lovebug' rings my cell. Then I answer it and someone sings to me The Beatle's 'Hey Jude'. No one does this except…
-"Ash?"
-"Of course, who else would ring your cell with The Jonas Brothers? I mean, you're like the only person that knows that little secret of me liking their songs!" G-d she knows me so good…
-"Well, yeah, you're…" I started saying, not knowing if I was feeling happy or sad. I didn't know anymore.
-"Plus, no one else sings 'Hey Jude' to you on the phone. Unless…"
-"No, no one else does that. You're the only one…" G-d I'm really relieved that we still don't do video calls because that way she would have noticed I'm biting my lip so I don't tell her how much I love her and miss her and everything.
-"Good. I don't want anyone messing up with that tradition of ours."
-"Yeah…So, Ash, what's up? It's been a while we haven't talked… Is everything ok?" I tried my best to sound as much as a best friend I could.
-"Oh yeah, of course everything's alright. But you know, you're right when you say it's been a while. I've missed you, you know?" She sounded so sincere that I couldn't help myself but to think that maybe, just maybe, there was a small opportunity for us to be real friends again.
-"Yeah, I know. I've missed you too. More than I could possibly express…" It was a barely audible sigh-like murmur. She does that to me, I can't even speak properly.
-"You know, you should consider washing your car now that we're almost on vacations. It really looks dirty, you know?"
Wait, what? Is she seriously speaking about my always-dirty car? How does she know? Unless…
-"What? Ash, what are you talking about, how would you…"
-"You should really look outside your window more often, the day is great out here…"
I couldn't help myself but to smile. She was really here… No, no, I won't get overexcited about this. It's not like that time when my parents left for the weekend and I was alone and with no money and she appeared like a perfect princess in the middle of the rain out of nowhere and surprised me with dinner… She's so perf… No. No, no, no. She's with Dany now, face it!
After that little struggle with myself I pulled my head out of the window just to see Ash staring back at me.
-"Hey Jude, what took you so long?"
-"I don't know, I guess I just couldn't believe that you were really here. Dany knows about this, right?" Okay, way to blow a moment Carlin! She's thinking about that too, because she has a shocked look on her face right now. Oh G-d, now I just want to run and hide under my bed.
-"Ha ha ha, now you really made me laugh Carlin! Of course she knows! It's not like we're doing anything wrong. I just missed spending some quality time with my best friend. Hope that's ok with you…"
Idiot. Idiot. Idiot… Now think about something decent to say. You're soo loosing your cool, Carlin, seriously.
-"Perfect timing, I was actually starting to watch Jonas Brothers videos to boredom. Oh, wait. You actually like those guys, right?" I said with a winning smile. Spencer: 1- Ashley: 45. Ok, that doesn't sound good. Forget about it.
-"Hilarious Carlin, really. Don't forget I actually know about that weird Enrique Iglesias crush you have. So get your pitiful ass down here before I decide to spread your little secret like a high school bitch."
-"Oh whatever, you win. I'm almost down."
The drive was awkward, there's no other definition. I didn't even know where we were going, but I didn't have the strength to ask. Just being with her was perfect. But then I realized that the car just stopped and she was getting out of it. What the… Oh.
-"Ash? Are we where I actually think we are?"
-"Yup!"
