Chapter 28

Ashley's POV

This day was finally here. The day that Spencer would leave for two months. I didn't sleep all night. I was thinking about what to do. I didn't know what the answer would be . I wanted to see her but yet saying goodbye to her it would be difficult for me. And I still couldn't forget what she asked me to do . She wanted space she wanted to take a break from us. And that still hurt as much as I love her.

I knew that her flight was at 9. Till 7.00am I was still with my underwear walking all over my place, thinking what I should do. Every time I said to myself that I had time. The airport wasn't far away from my apartment so all I needed was 20 minutes and I would be there.

At 7.45 I knew what I wanted to do. I was dressed and ready to go and meet my girlfriend. Whatever was happening between us for me she was still my girlfriend.

When I reached my car I tried to start it but I couldn't. I did everything. I looked if I needed water, I checked my battery poles. Everything but nothing. The time was 8.10. I didn't have much time. I tried to find a taxi. Actually I ran to find a taxi to take me there and thank God I found one. We weren't that far away from the airport but it had so much traffic. Someone really didn't want me to reach the airport. I paid the taxi driver and told him to let me off where we were . Time, 8.35. I didn't have enough time. I was so close but yet so far. I ran but when I was outside the airport it was already 8.45. I missed Spencer. Now she was walking through her gate. I missed her. Damn.

I was breathing so hard. Although I am very fit I have to say that I couldn't breathe from all the anxiety and the running. When I was trying to recuperate I saw Spencer's grandparents. They didn't know me but I knew her grandfather. I saw him every night when he was picking her up from Starbucks. I couldn't text her say have a nice trip. Her phone should be off and it would stay that way for 15 hours. I so wanted to see her before she left but I guess my mind held me back. If I didn't think so much I would have been there saying goodbye to Spencer. But I guess this was fate? Who knows?

I found a taxi again and I went at Starbucks to find Kyla. If I told her what happened she would yell at me. Once I was there and she saw me she had this huge smile on her face and she didn't even let me talk.

"So? Tell me. Did you kiss her? Is everything alright now?"

"Kyla, please stop."

"Ashley, come on. Tell me. You know I can't wait. Oh, guys I so love you two together"

"Kyla, no. I didn't kiss her. Nothing is alright. I didn't even have the chance to say goodbye"

"WHAT?"

"Please don't scream. There are customers here"

"Ashley, tell me what the fuck have you done"

I told her the whole story. And I mean everything. She didn't seem happy. And she supposes to be my sister and yet she yells at me.

"I don't know what to say Ash. Really I don't know"

"Me neither"

While talking I saw Aiden after so long. Last time I remember I shouted at him and really outted myself to him. And from what Kyla told me he knew about me and Spencer. Once he saw me he stopped, looked at me and did nothing else. I was mean that day.

"Hey Aiden"

"Ashley, hey"

Kyla was looking back and forth between Aiden and I. I knew she liked the guy still and it was hurting me knowing that my sister couldn't have the one she wanted.

Aiden was a good guy. He was. And if I was straight and not in love with Spencer maybe I would try be with him. He really was what a woman would want in a man.

"So how's everything Ashley?"

"Everything is ok"

"What about you and Spencer? Are you ok now?"

First wow. I didn't expect from Aiden to ask me about Spencer and second he asked me about Spencer and me? If we were ok? I gave a very angry look at Kyla who didn't even look at me. If I thought that she was using my relationship for Aiden to stop being in love with me I would so kick her ass.

"Well Aiden, no, Spencer and I are not ok. But I am sure my sister told you that"

"Well no. Actually I heard Spencer one day talking with Kyla and she said that you weren't ok. I asked Kyla some days later and she told me that you were back to speaking terms." I looked back at Kyla who now was missing. I'm so going to kick her ass.

"No Aiden. Spencer and I are on some kind of a break right now. You know she is back to Greece. So we will see"

"I see. Well, if you want someone to talk except your sister I'll be here"

"Yeah, thank you"

I could see why Kyla liked him. He had something warm in his eyes. And up until now I have to admit that I didn't give Aiden some credit. I guess I could sit one day and talk with him. There is nothing wrong with that.

"Ash.."

"Don't even say a word to me Kyla right now. My day didn't start well. I am going home. Talk to you later"

I didn't want to do anything actually. I wanted to go home, lay on my bed and think of Spencer. I would wait for her to land and text her when I would think it would be an appropriate time.

Without knowing when or how, I slept and when I checked my phone it was already 4am. Spencer probably would be home by now. I wanted to wait to text her. She would be with her parents and friends that I knew she missed. So I slept again. First thing I would do when I would wake up would be to text her to see if her trip was ok.

It was 8am when I woke up. Early for me. I never get up at 8 for not reason. I woke up, put my running shoes, my running shorts and a t shirt and went out for running. When I was running I could think clearer. And after what happened with Spencer every day I would go for running at the beach. I felt close to her there.

By the time I finished running it was 12. I went back to my apartment, showered and I was ready to text Spencer when I saw I had a text. I opened it and it was from her. I smiled..

'Hey Ash, I am here. The trip was ok. I thought that you might want to know that I am ok. Well.. have a nice day, and talk again some time. Spencer'

I texted her right back. And what made me read more to that message of hers was the part that said 'talk again some time'. And I so wanted to talk to her again. But I had to be careful with what I would text her back. Spencer really confused me some times. But still it was a person who was making me feel things I didn't know that existed.

'Hey you. I am glad that you are ok. Have fun over there. And Spence.. know that I am thinking of you. Ashley'

It was true. I was thinking of her so much. Maybe more than I should. Heck, even the two weeks that we were apart I was every night outside Starbucks just to see her. So yes, I was thinking of her way too much.

'I am thinking of you too. So we talk again some time?'

'Yes, we will talk again some time. Goodnight Spence'

'Good morning Ash'

When I learned that Spencer was leaving for Greece I searched the internet for a time difference calculator. So I knew it was 11pm for her and 1pm for me. When her day would finish mine would start. Now I knew she wanted to talk. I would try to take it slow and see where we would go from there. All I knew was that I missed her already so very much.
