"Fuck my life." Spencer mumbled low enough that neither girl could hear. She so did not want to do this right now. The whole point of today was so she could talk to Kyla-only Kyla. She did not prepare for this encounter.

"Well are you going to answer the question Spence or just leave us here waiting in suspense?" Ashley knew as soon as she saw the blonde talking to her sister that, whatever happened between them she was trying to fix. It scared her too much to even think of her sister being with Spencer. What was done was horrible but have I truly broken Spencer's heart beyond repair?

"Look Ash."

"I'm glad to see we're back to calling me Ash again. It means there's still hope for us." The brunette knew as well as the blonde that whenever she referred to her as Ash it meant things were good, or at least on their way to being.

"I don't have time for this. I'm outta here." Kyla picked up her bag and walked away from the blonde and her bitch of a sister. From where Cassie was standing she saw the whole ordeal and decided to cut the chit chat with her friends short and run after Kyla. After all when Cassie couldn't be there for Spencer Kyla stepped in, and for that she was grateful. Her and Kyla didn't talk much but that was about to change.

"No Kyla-wait." Spencer tried her best to catch her but Ashley moved in front of her stopping her from making any such movement. She wanted her Spencer back and she was not afraid to play dirty.

"Spence let her go." Spencer all but yanked the brunette by the hair and pulled her to the ground.

"What the fuck is with you?" Ashley was taken aback by this. Never has Spencer yelled at her or even cursed for that matter, but now the blonde seemed to be doing it more often. The Spencer she knew had certainly changed since prom.

Spencer was beyond pissed now. She was close to making up with Kyla. Well maybe not close-close, but she was about to get there.

"Woah there cow girl. Isn't that language kinda strong even for you?" Ashley said with her infamous trademark smirk.

"Ashley. I'm not amused. Why can't you leave me alone even for a second?" The brunette was slightly hurt by this. When they were talking on the phone that night it seemed like they were close to getting back to being friends again. What changed?

"Ouch Spence, that slightly hurt. I thought you said we could be friends?" Ashley said softly.

Spencer to a moment to calm down before she chose to spoke, being a bitch was not on her agenda for today.

"You're right, I'm sorry. It's just you can't do things like that. Interrupting me and Kyla was not only intentional but half assed." Spencer said in all seriousness.

"Oh come on Spence. You expect me to believe that you actually have feelings for my sister? Who by the way is in no way as hot as me."

"I expect you to respect my decisions if you ever want us being friends to work, or if you ever want to be in my life again because I have no problem cutting all ties with you." Ashley sighed softly. She hated to admit but Spencer was right. The point being, that if she even wanted a shot at getting back with Spencer she would have to bite her tongue for a little while and win her blonde beauties trust back. Hell, if she even wanted Spencer to acknowledge her existence she would have to from now on choose her words carefully.

"You're right. How about we start over? Tomorrow's Saturday so how about we have lunch and catch up just as friends? Spencer thought about it for a minute before finally agreeing. This would give her a chance to see if she even still had feelings for Ashley worth exploring.

"Good. I'll see you tomorrow then."

"Yeah tomorrow." Ashley turned and walked to her car with a huge smile on her face. Things were looking up now.

"Kyla wait up would ya. Damn you're fast girl."

"Oh Cassie I'm sorry I didn't know you were following me."

"I can run and I can talk, but I can't do both." Cassie said trying to turn the frown on the brunette's face into a smile. By the looks of it she succeeded.

"Sure you can't. I'm sorry, did you want to talk to me about something?"

"Actually I did. We don't talk much unless it's about Spencer and I thought we give that girl way too much credit." Kyla laughed slightly. She had a point. It seemed lately the conversations being had usually involved the blue eyed blonde.

"What's up then?"

"Tomorrow's Saturday and I was thinking that we just hang out and talk, just the two of us. I need a friend and I think you do too." Cassie said smiling softly at Kyla. She could see why Spencer was pinning after this girl. There was a softness that just emanated from the brunette. Softness: worth getting close too.

"Yeah I'd like that."

"Cool. See you tomorrow." Cassie turned and waved in midst of walking away. Saturday was going to be fun.

Kyla smiled for the first time today. She needed to do anything to get her mind off of Spencer and her sister.

This chapter is short I know, but I just wanted to establish a few things. I know it seems like the character Cassie came out of nowhere but in further chapters I will develop her more and give you insight into what was the basis of her and Spencer's relationship after prom. I also wanted to give someone for Kyla. She needs someone to talk to other than Spencer and definitely not Aiden or her sister.

As always. Read. Review. Enjoy.
