Hey guys.. I am back from my weekend off and I am here writing my favorite story.. Happy to see new friends and old friends.. Thank you all for your wonderful reviews.. It is really good to read your thoughts.. So lets see what is going to happen.. Enjoy the new chapter..


Chapter 29

I was afraid.. I was afraid because I was going to see my parents and tell them what happened.. How you tell your parents that someone they knew as the perfect guy abused their daughter? How you tell your father and mother that someone took something so important.. Your dignity.. I thank God for Ashley though.. She said she would hold my hand and that she did.. In our way back home she was holding my hand.. She didn't need to say anything.. She was there laying her head on my shoulders, caressing my hand, linking our fingers.. I knew it wouldn't be easy for her but I was glad I had her with me..

I said to myself enough times that maybe I shouldn't tell them anything.. I could call them and tell them that I am moving with Ashley and that's it.. But I didn't want to do that to my dad.. He didn't deserve it.. Then Ashley reading my thoughts she would tell me that I can't keep it a secret.. Someday they would find out and then it would be worst.. For now not many people knew that Aiden was in jail because of me.. Sooner or later more people they would found out.. Aiden and I were the golden kids.. Not literally since we never got the gold but we were well known for our sport and we were the best..

The one hour and a half flight from JFK to Ohio seemed like a month.. Every time I would look back to Ashley and she would give me that smile I love.. I could do it.. We could it.. Together.. Ashley and me..

Clearly I didn't tell my dad that we were here.. I wanted to surprise them.. Surprise surprise.. look who is back.. Ashley thought of renting a car so we could move easier through town.. I thought she would rent a small car.. No.. She rent a porshe.. A porshe.. from crying out loud.. I was with my mouth open when I saw her coming closer..

"hey sexy.. Wanna a ride?"

"Ash? What is this?"

"Eh.. I believe it's car.. An awesome car actually"

"Ash.. This is a porshe.."

"Nice baby.. You love?"

"Ash.. This is expensive and it draws attention"

"Where is the problem?"

"Well.. I don't have a fucking clue.. Are you ready?"

"Meet Paula Carlin for the second time? Ohhh yes.. Bring it on.."

"Promise never leave me?"

"Never"

She leaned closer and gave me a kiss.. She put her glasses on and we drove to my house.. My house and my mom.. Why I was afraid again?

Once we were outside my home I stayed inside the car looking at my house door.. Ashley sensed my hesitance and she put her hands on my face turning my gaze on hers..

"Spence.. I am here.. ok? We can do this together.. And if it gets wrong I will be there holding your hand.. ok?"

I took one big breath, I told her I loved her and I opened my door.. It was now or ever..

I knocked the door.. you would say that since I live here and it is my house I should open with my keys.. Yes.. Well I would rather to knock this time.. I heard footsteps and I wished it was my father but when the door opened it was no one else that my beloved mother..

"Spencer.. Sweetie.. I am so glad you are here.." ok.. bi polar much? Last time I remember her not being herself.. She hugged me when she noticed that I wasn't alone.. "Ashley"

"Hello Mrs Carlin. Nice to see you again"

"What are you doing here?"

"Mom.."

"What is she doing here Spencer?"

"She came with me.."

"I can't believe you.. How you dare bringing her here? To my house?"

"Mom.. you are making a scene.. Can we please continue this inside? We don't need your beloved neighbors know that your daughter is gay.." I said while whispering the word gay..

Of course she let us get inside.. She would never want her neighbors find out about the gay couple.. Heaven forbid..

"Spencer you are not gay"

"Mom.. you are in denial.. I think I made myself clear to you when I told you that I love Ashley and we are together.. So.. I believe that makes me gay and in love with Ashley.. Where is dad?"

"At work"

"We will be waiting inside my room.. When he comes I want to tell you something both.. Actually we want to tell you something.. As in Ashley and I in case you were wondering.."
"Spencer I will never accept this.."

"I didn't ask you to"

How I was so strong defending my relationship with Ashley infront of my mother I don't know.. I guess Ashley being here with me and holding my hand was my strength..

"Are you pregnant? That's what you want to tell us?"

"I believe that it would be difficult for Ashley to leave me pregnant since she is a girl.. When dad comes home please tell us."

I didn't say anything else.. I just took Ashley and guided her upstairs to my room..

"See? That wasn't too difficult"

"Give me your hand"

I took her hand and placed it to my heart that was beating like crazy.. I held her hand for a minute looking at her eyes..

"Can you feel my heart?" she just nodded.. "It was too difficult to confront her but you were there and everything seemed easier"

"She was funny actually.. She thought you were pregnant? How could you be pregnant?"

My mind went back to that day that I had to go to the doctor's and see if I was ok after Aiden.. He told me that I was but to do some tests.. Tests I never did and now my heart beats again for different reasons..

"Spence? What is it baby? Did I say something wrong?"

"No.. It's just.. Well.. Shit.."

"Baby? What is going on? Please tell me"

"Ash.. I..I.." she took my hand in hers and placed a kiss to the inside and she put my hand to her heart..

"Can you feel my heart? It beats that way only for you.. So.. Please baby.. What is it?"

"Ash.. That night.. Aiden.. I.. can't remember if he came inside me or not.. I went to a doctor and he said that I was ok but I should do some tests.. I never did those tests Ash.."

I was nervous for her reaction.. I didn't know what to expect.. All I did know was that I was hoping she would still want to keep my hand..

"Well then.. Once we are over from here we are going to the doctor's"

"Ash..

"We are going to do those tests and I will be there holding your hand.." I was crying.. I was in her arms crying like a little baby.. I can't be that lucky and have her as mine.. I must be dreaming..

"I love you Ashley Davies"

"And I love you Spencer Carlin"

"What if the tests are affirmative?"

"Well.. I don't know.. We will see then.. We will do whatever you want to do.. Ok?"

"Yes.."

"Good.. Now stop crying baby because I can't see you crying.."

I let myself fall into her arms one more time.. It felt so good to know she would be there with me.. We were kissing when I heard a knock at my door..

"Do I have to close my eyes to get in?"

"Daddy.."

"Hey baby girl.. I missed you.."

"Missed you to honey.. Ashley? Good to see you here.. How are you?"

Ashley got up and met my father in the halfway.. They hugged each other so warm and it saddens me that my mother couldn't be supportive as my dad..

"How you feel that these Olympics are over?"

"Actually I am feeling fine Mr C.. I got one thing I wanted for so long.."

"Your gold eh? Nice job Ashley"

"Thank you Mr. C. but I wasn't talking for my gold though.. I was talking for your daughter who stole my heart"

I looked at her and I had to pinch myself so I knew that all this was real.. That she was real and she was mine.. I took my side next to her and held her hand.. This gesture was our safety net.. This gesture meant everything to us.. I knew she was here and she knew I was there for her..

"Ok.. Dinner it's ready and let me tell you that your mother is fuming downstairs.. She told me you have something to tell us Spencer?"

"Actually we both have something to tell you.."

"Ok my girl.. What if we join your mother?"

"Perfect" That was sarcastic if you didn't catch it..

Once Ashley and I were in the dinning room my mom gave us the look of 'get out of my house you little lesbians'.. I was glad my dad was there because although I know Ashley is next to me it's hard your own mother doesn't accept you.. It just hurts..

We were eating in full silence.. Sometimes I could see my mom looking at us but she never said anything.. Guess my dad had to do something with that..

"So girls.. Your mother told me you had something to tell us.. Well? Why don't you share with us.."

I looked at Ashley and she just said 'we are ok'.. I would start with the good news.. Or my good news.. I don't know if they are good news to them since I am moving with Ashley..

"Well.. Mom, dad.. You know that I love Ashley and she loves me back.. Since Ash lives in Colorado and I live here we thought that it would be best if one of us moved to where the other lives.. That means we already discussed it and I am moving with Ashley"

None of my parents spoke.. Neither my dad who was looking at me like I had three heads.. Not to mention my mom.. I would rather not.. Because she was red and standing looking at Ashley and me..

"WHAT?"

"Mom"

"Paula"

"NO.. You are not going anywhere.. Are you listening to me? You are to young to take such a decision.. And to live with her?"

"She has a name.. You seem to forget that.." now it was my time to stand up and look at her.. "And you seem to forget that I am 22.. So it is MY choice to do whatever I like.. Whether you like or not"

"She changed you.. You weren't like this.. You were good.. You had a boyfriend.. Such a good boy.. How you did that to Aiden?"

Aiden? How I did THAT to Aiden?

"You don't have a fucking clue about Aiden 'mom'"

"Spencer, please don't talk like that to your mother"

"Dad.. She doesn't have a clue.. Not you nor mom have a clue about Aiden" I felt my eyes wet and I knew that tears were coming and I couldn't hold them anymore.. Aiden's topic was still a shore..

"Honey what's the matter?"

"Aiden.. Aiden.." I couldn't continue.. I just couldn't.. Ashley held my hand and stood by my side..

"Mr C, Mrs Carlin.. What Spencer wanted to tell you was that.. ehm.. Aiden back in Canada.. ehm.. He raped Spencer"

My mother sat back to the couch.. My dad was still standing with surprise written in his eyes.. And me.. well I was crying in Ashley's arms..

"How? When?"

"NO.. It's a lie.. It can't be.. NO"

Both my parents were socked to say the least.. Thank God Ashley was the one who told them.. When the time came I couldn't.. It was like I was reliving the same scene over and over.. And I wanted him out of my life.. Once and for all..

"Where were you Ashley? Where were you when this happened? I guess that's how much you love my daughter eh? Leaving her and someone comes and rape her? WHERE WERE YOU?"

"She was at her room mom.." I wouldn't tell them ever what happened between us and how that night went on.. "I thought of drinking some and then Aiden came and he pushed himself on me.."

I sat back to the other couch with my hands on my head while crying..

"Baby.. ssshhh.. I am here.. Ok? Don't cry please.. I am here" Ashley said while she had her hands round my waist..

"Spence? Why you didn't tell anything?"

"I couldn't dad.. What I would say to you over the phone? It's not something you tell while being in another country"

"Where is Aiden now?"

"I put charges and he is still in Canada.. In jail.. I guess they can't keep him there and he will be back to the states to sit in judgement.."

"Aww Spence.. My dear girl.." he came closer and put his hands behind my back and kissed my forehead.. I still felt strange with any male close to me.. But I had to let go because that wasn't healthy and if I continued I would lose myself day by day..

My mom was still looking at us, not telling anything.. When I thought she was leaving she came closer and did the same with my dad.. She kissed my forehead and hugged me.. I needed her to be there with me.. I needed my mom..

"He will get what he deserves and nothing more.. I am sorry Spencer for pushing you to him.. I had to know that he was bad news.. I feel it's my fault.."

"It's no ones fault mom.."

"Mrs Carlin.. I want you to know that I love your daughter very much.. She is everything to me.. When I found out I wanted to kill him for what he did to our girl.. I hated him.."

Our girl.. When Ashley used this word I saw my mother's face.. It wasn't the stern one.. It was more sweet but it held sadness.. I didn't expect to love Ashley after an hour.. I wanted her though to accept her as the girl I am so in love with..

"I am sure he be put in jail for years.. I have connections.. I am so sorry Spencer.. I am so sorry"

"Mom.. I am ok now.. Do you know why? The reason is right next to me.. The reason I can sleep at night now is Ashley.. And I am not leaving her.. Ok?"

"Spencer.."

"I am just saying.. And I just want for you to know.. Ashley and I stick together.. For better and for worst.."

And we already faced the worst.. Now I am hoping for the best to come.. Together..
