I'm not totally sure how I feel about this chapter but I hope you will all like it. Thanks for reading, enjoy!!!!
Ashley and I pulled up to the school at about 6:30 to get my car. We were leaning against my car flirting playfully when I see a head of brown hair come towards us over Ashley's shoulder.
"What the hell Ashley, now in front of my school", Kyla starts going off, "and Spencer I thought you had a little more class than that." I drop my head in embarrassment and I feel a blush creep onto my face.
"Kyla, I don't know what you're fucking problem is, but it's really starting to piss me off. What's wrong with you?" Ashley asks her while wrapping a protective arm around my waist.
"My fucking problem Ashley is you", she says getting in Ash's face.
"What did I do to you Kyla?"
"You waltz in here like you always do with your celebrity", she says a bit angrier now. Ashley stares at her, confusion written all over her face.
"What are you talking about?" Ashley asks with desperation.
"You really don't get it, do you?" Kyla chuckles lightly.
"Carmen, Chelsea, Madison, Josie, any of those names ring a bell", Kyla says giving Ashley a hard stare. I see recognition flash across Ashley's face.
"What do they have to do with anything?"
"They were my friends that you 'dated'", Kyla says making air quotes with her hands, "and now they won't talk to me after you hurt them."
"I'm sorry about that Ky, but I don't understand what that has to do with me and Spencer", Ashley says softly.
"I liked them Ashley and they forgot about me when they met you, and now they don't want anything to do with me", Kyla says and I notice tears begin to form in her eyes.
"I'm not gonna hurt Spencer and I doubt she's gonna forget about you, all she's been trying to do is figure out ways to get you to be okay with us", Ashley tells her.
"You don't get it Ashley", she sobs.
"Kyla talk to me", Ashley pleads moving towards her sister.
"I like Spencer!" she shouts. "I've liked her since I first laid eyes on her."
Hold on stop and rewind, did she just say that. Don't ask me, I'm still trying to make sure I heard it right.
Kyla turns to me with red eyes and says, "I like you Spencer. I have feelings for you. I can't be okay with it, because I know she's going to hurt you and they you're going to abandon me like everyone else, and I just can't handle that. I don't know why I introduced you to her. Why couldn't you like me?"
Before me or Ashley had a chance to respond Kyla ran towards her car, jumped in, and sped off leaving us there to digest what she just said. Ashley hasn't said a word since Kyla said that she likes me. Her face is a mixture of hurt, anger, and confusion. I don't know what else to feel except confusion. I move to touch Ashley's arm and she turns to me and I see sadness and anger in her eyes, but they soften once her brain registers that it's me. She pulls me into a tight embrace and I just hold on to her felling like I'm going to fall if I let go.
"Did you really date all of those girls Ashley", I ask her, pulling away from her embrace, not really wanting to hear the answer.
"Um, well we didn't really date as much as we slept together", she tells me refusing to meet my eyes; "I swear I would never do that to you."
I look up to meet her eyes, "Did you say that to them too?"
"No, Spencer, I didn't really care about them and I know that's bad to say but I really care about you and I'm not gonna hurt you", she tells me looking straight into my eyes and I see the sincerity in hers.
We stand in the parking lot of King High holding each other against my car letting the events that unfurled minutes before wash over us. Kyla, my first friend here, has a crush on me, and then I go and hurt her by dating her sister. Needless to say I feel like crap. If I had known Kyla felt like that I wouldn't have started dating Ashley, but at this point I don't think I could stop if I wanted to. I know we haven't been together long, but I feel connected and attached to her.
We eventually let each other go. I look into Ashley's eyes and I lean in to kiss her, both of us making silent promises. I pull away first and reach up to brush a stray strand of hair behind her ear before I lean in and give her another quick peck. She reaches around me and opens my car door for me and I get in and shut the door, keeping my eyes locked with Ashley's the whole time. She walks over to her car once I'm buckled in mine. She gets inside her vehicle and we start the cars at the same time. We pull out of the parking lot heading opposite directions, both to face our own reality.
I pull in my driveway about twenty minutes after I parted with Ashley. I sit in my car for a moment letting Kyla's words run through my head again. I slowly exit the car and head up the drive to the door. I pull my key for the front door out and unlock the door.
The door barely shuts before I hear, "Where have you been?"
Okay guys, there you go. Kyla's behavior is out in the open. A lot of you guessed it, but I couldn't tell you if you were right or wrong. I hope you all enjoyed this chapter, although I'm not completely satisfied with it. I love knowing what you guys think so leave me a comment or review please. Thanks for reading!!
