It had been a week since everything with Kyla and Aiden went down. i was still hurting but having Ashley around every second made it better. She had practically spent every night here cause Kyla had kicked her out.I asked her to move into the guest room and she said yes. I had been looking at the magazine's site. They had a picture of Ashley and I from the comp, in the picture i was giving her a huge hug and just smiling. They called it "Jail bait Season" i was in there with a few other celebrities i hadn't seen before. It didn't shock me that they had found out Ashley's age. In another week she would be legally mine. That was all i really cared about. I still had no clue what to get her,what do you get a rich girl? Nothing comes to mind. I think i might have to call someone i don't want so that i can get my girl the perfect gift. I was about to do something that i didn't think i would do for anybody let alone for a girl. I looked around for my blackberry. I went under R and went to the bottom of my list.
After a few rings Ryan picked up.
"Well isn't this a pleasant surprise?"
"Sure is, listen i need your help and it has to do with Ashley, could i maybe take you out to lunch and you can tell me what i'd like to know?" I was hoping she wasn't going to be a smart ass.
"Yes that sounds good, how about 2pm today?"
"Yeah, I'll pick you up, do you still live at the same place?"
"You know it, I'll see you then."
"Okay, thanks bye."
I didn't want to see Ryan let alone be within a foot of her, but i needed to make sure Ashley had a birthday she'd always remember. So if it means seeing someone that i would be happy never seeing again then I'll do it for her. I was getting ready i wasn't getting dressed to impress Ryan, i just didn't want to look bad for going out in public. I took a shower and then put on some Hollister plaid shorts and a white v neck and some rainbows then i was ready to go. I was almost out the front door when i felt those strong arms wrap around my waist.
"And where does my lady think she is going without a kiss?" Ashley was pouting, and still had on her morning clothes. She looked beautiful.
"Well I'll take the kiss with a smile, but i have a lunch meeting I've got to go to."I think Ashley could hear that i wasn't exactly happy, but she trusted me enough not to ask where i was going. I gave her a kiss and then i was in my car on my way to pick up the devil herself.
"Hey baby, have i ever mentioned that i love your car?" Ryan sat in the seat and tried to give me a kiss.
"Lets not, remember today is about Ashley not you." I wasn't trying to come off as being rude or mean i just didn't want her to get the wrong idea. From there we just drove in silence, it wasn't to bad. I took her to her favorite restaurant, i knew that she would be happy. When we arrived she had a huge smile on her face.
"Spence, you remember my favorite place in all of Cali?" She was talking in a high pitched voice. It made me smile to remember what old times used to be life.
"How could i forget a place like this?" I wasn't trying to show my smile but it just came out. We went in and got a booth. It was nice, it made me think about what it would be like if Ryan and I were still dating or if we had stayed friends.
"So what about Ashley do you want to know?" She was looking at the menu.
"Well her birthday is in a week, and i wanted to get her something really nice that she will never forget." I already knew what i wanted to i was just staring at the wall.
"Hm, that's a hard one Spence, she has cars, money, houses. You can't really buy her anything that she can't buy herself. How about you make her a dinner, and take her on a nice walk down the beach or something like that to show her how much you really do care for her."
"Wow, that actually sounds really good. Thanks for the advice."
"So now that i helped you with that can i get one small kiss? I won't bite, i know that you never liked that babe."
"Only one, cause you gave me a great idea for her." I wasn't to happy with what i was about to do but i just wanted to thank her for doing this. I learned over to give her a small peck. She smiled when we came out of the -1 second kiss.
"Now was that sooo bad?"
"Yes, it truly was." I can't help but to be mean to this girl. We ate the rest of our lunch, only making small talk every once in a while. I paid the check and we were out the door. The ride back to her house was pretty quiet.
"Well thanks for lunch, maybe we could do it some other time but just as friends?"
"That actually doesn't sound like a bad idea." I smiled, i was trying to be honest with her. She got out of the car and walked into her house.
Once i saw that she was in the front door i pulled away. About twenty mins later i was at my house.
"Ashley?"
I didn't hear Ashley at all. It was kind of freaking me out. I was thinking the worst. Then i went upstairs to look around.
"Spence, I'm in the shower."
Thank god. I almost had a heart attack. I worried that something had happened to Ashley and that killed me. But everything was good. I went to my room and put on a pair of basketball shorts and a sports bra. I wasn't skating today so i was planning on laying in bed all day. I had to think about what i was going to do for Ashley's birthday and how i could make it all work. In only 2 months this girl was meant more to me anyone else. It scares me but it also makes me want to give the world to her. I was thinking about all of this and i must of fallen asleep.
"Baby, wake up." I open my eyes to see Ashley laying next to me. Her hair was wet and she was in sweatpants but she looked gorgeous. It look my breath away for a second.
"No, come take a nap and then we can do something..Please?" I pouted and i knew that she would agree. My parents used to tell me i could get anything in the world with that pout.
"Okay, but only for a bit." We got all snuggled up and the next thing i remember is seeing Ashley's curls. It was the best way to go to sleep. I knew that this next week was going to go by well. I was only hoping that she'd like what i wanted to do for her birthday.
