ASHLEY POV
Spencer hasn't called me for like, three months now. How long was this break supposed to be? It's driving me insane. When she suggested it, I figured she'd quit and come back after the first week or something. She proved me wrong. I wonder what she was doing, and how long she planned on dragging this out for.
Maybe she's getting piss ass drunk and kissing random bitches again. I squeezed my hands into fists at the thought, but relaxed. We're on a 'break' she's perfectly able to do whatever she wants.
And I'm perfectly able to be insanely jealous. Break or not, I love her.
I walked out to the living room to see Aiden sitting on the couch, waiting for Kyla, as usual.
"Sup Aid?"
"Waiting for Kyla to get ready so we can go do something today. How about you?"
"I was actually gonna go to grab some lunch, of you guys wanna join me…"
"Really?. I'd love to, we just gotta wait and run it by Kyla, see if she'd come."
"You really love her don't you?"
"Yeah, I really do." He smiled at me, then asked the inevitable question, "How are you?"
"I guess I'm alright, I could be doing a lot better. I mean I've had plenty of time to deal right?" I chucked. "it's just, weird, ya know?. Her not being here, not calling me…" *shrug* "If she comes back she will. If not, I just hope she's happy." I hated that, and I hated that it was true. I would give up the love of my life, just for her happiness. Masochist much?
"It'll all work out Ash." he responded, then Kyla came bustling out of her room. She stopped when she saw me. Aiden spoke up again, "do you wanna go out with Ash to lunch?"
"Of course! Where are we gonna go?"
"I really don't care Ky, anywhere's fine. I was just gonna drive around town and look, but I saw Aiden was still in and I thought we could all go together."
"Yeah, Ash, let's do it!" Kyla seemed extremely excited for lunch, like she was on speed.
Maybe it's because after everything, I'd been distant, I decided it was time to just deal and live life.
Remember, masochist.
We ended up going to some random restaurant in West Hollywood. It was a pretty relaxing, yet fun day…
Until I saw Carmen.
I decided to ignore the fact she was there and continue my good day. It brought back memories of Spencer. Kyla saw Carmen and thankfully decided it was time to leave.
We did some random shopping, had a pretty good day overall…
But when we got home, Kyla was being a little weird. Her phone rang, and she wouldn't tell anyone who it was. She just gave Aiden this look and ran into her bedroom. Wouldn't he be suspicious? What if it was another guy?… he seemed pretty chill, until he challenged me to Guitar Hero… he's just mad coz I kicked his ass. That's what happens when you face a guitar player at a guitar game.
Kyla came out of the room and just watched me kick his ass, she was silent the whole time. So not like her.
Then after I won the third song, she decided it was time for her and Aiden to go to bed. Damn he was whipped. It was kinda funny.
Finally, first good day in three months.
I was jamming out to a Muse song when the doorbell rang. Damnit. So much for the high score on one of the hardest songs.
This better be quick.
I paused the game and walked over to the door, plastic guitar still in hand.
Reluctantly pulling open the door to see…
"…Spencer?."
