Background: AU, Ashley is an All-American High School softball player for King High. Spencer, the new girl, is also an amazing player; she was the "Best in Ohio" and now is trying out for the team at King High.
Chapter 37:
They pulled in behind the SUV and everyone got out. Kyla and Ashley kept exchanging glances. Aiden, Rachel, and Amy left so that Spencer was the only one still there. "What's going on guys?" She asked them.
Ashley looked at her as they walked in the house, "My gra…" She was cut off by an older woman.
"Ashley dear, you're home, happy birthday!" She ran to the girl and grabbed her disregarding her injuries.
"Oph." Ashley tried her best to hug back but soon couldn't stand the pain and pushed the woman off her.
The woman then turned to Kyla and hugged her as well. She looked at Spencer and said, "Well who do we have here?"
"I'm Spencer." She smiled.
"Spencer, what kind of name is that for a girl? Oh any who, I'm Ashley's grandmother."
Spencer smiled and looked at Ashley who was standing with a look of terror on her face. "Well Grandma, we're gonna go up to my room. It's been a long day."
"Alrighty deary, nighty night. Sleep well. Don't let the bed bugs bite. And come give Grandma a kiss." Ashley rolled her eyes and did as she was told.
Once upstairs she pulled Spencer into a passionate kiss. "What was that for?" Spencer asked.
"My thanks for today."
Spencer smiled. "So, Ashley dear, how about we get into bed."
Ashley frowned at her. "Never again will you call me that."
"Oh really, Ashley dear?" Ashley used her crutch and pushed Spencer onto the bed but found herself being pulled softly onto top of the blonde. They stayed in that position and began to have an intimate make out session when Kyla barged in. "Help! She wants me to-Ugh, guys, come on!"
Ashley turned to look at her, "I'm locking that door from now on. But what do you need to be saved from?"
"Grandma, she wants me to play Scrabble with her."
Ashley laughed. "Good, then you'll be occupied and not barging in my room messing up my sextime." Spencer laughed when Ashley said this.
"Come on Ash, PPPPLLLLLEEEEAAASSSSSSSEE? I'll let it slip that you two are doin the dirty." She smiled.
"You wouldn't." Ashley's eyes narrowed but her smile gave her away.
"Oh, I will."
"Fine, sit, have fun." Ashley threw her good hand in the air. "Just remember all this shit I do for you Ky."
"Love you Ash!"
So the three of them decided to watch a movie. The choice, Wrong Turn. Halfway through to movie, Grandma came in, "Ashy Poo, your mother called. She wanted to make sure you were doing alright since your accident and she wanted me to tell you that she put some more money into the household account."
Ashley nodded. "Thanks."
She left. "Ugh, what is she doing here?" Ashley asked Kyla.
"Mom apparently told her we missed her and wanted to see her."
"She's such a bitch." Ashley cuddled into Spencer and went back to watching the movie.
"What's so bad about her guys?" Spencer asked.
Both of them shot a look at her, "What's so bad about her?"
"That's what I asked." She smiled.
"Well, for one, Ashley doesn't like her around because she doesn't know about Ashley being gay. She's annoying. And she's a horrible cook. Last time she was here, the fire department had to come put a cereal fire out."
"You don't cook cereal."
"Exactly. She wanted it warm so she tried to cook it."
Spencer laughed. "Oh."
"And she's a bitch." Ashley added and they went back to the movie.
During the movie, Spencer fell asleep and Kyla left after their grandmother had come in to tell them she was going to bed. Ashley nudged Spencer to get her to move to the bed. "Babe, we gotta get in the bed and I can't move you." She whispered.
Spencer moaned and got up sleepily. She crawled into the bed and was soon joined by Ashley. She yawned and placed a sweet kiss on Ashley's cheek. "Night Ashy Poo." That got her a smack. She laughed and snuggled into Ashley and fell right back to sleep and Ashley did the same thing a few seconds later.
The next morning they were woken up by a loud noise coming from the doorway.
"Girls!!! Breakfast is ready!" Ashley groaned. "Be down soon Grandma." She said.
Ashley looked over to Spencer who still had her eyes closed. "If you want, I'll tell her you went home so you don't have to eat the shit she made."
Spencer laughed. "If you have to deal with it, I will too."
"And that's why I love you." Ashley kissed her.
They went downstairs to see Kyla sitting at the bar, her head buried in her arms. Ashley gave her a pat on the back, "Morning!" Ashley yelled. Kyla groaned.
As Ashley's grandmother put the food in front of the girls she began to talk. "Well girls, I figured today we could take a trip to the grocery store to stock this house with some nutritious food."
"That's what the guy we hired is for Grandma." Ashley said as she looked at what she thought was eggs and bacon. She cringed. She took a bite of the "bacon" that turned out to be very over done sausage.
"Oh, well why don't I take you two shopping?"
"Ok!" Kyla said. She wasn't one to pass up on someone buying her clothes. "Can my boyfriend come?"
"Sure dear. Ashley, are you going to join us?"
Ashley shook her head. "I have therapy today and I think I'm also getting this sling off. Sorry, I can't make it."
"Oh heavens, I forgot. I'll take you."
"No, Spencer's got it."
Grandma looked at Spencer. "Well that's kind dear but I can take her."
Spencer looked at her, "No, I got it. Take Kyla shopping."
Grandma frowned. "Excuse me Spencer I will take my granddaughter to her therapy session."
Spencer stared at the woman. "No, I got it."
Kyla looked at Ashley for her to step in.
"Hey, Grandma, Spencer already made the plans to take me, so she's gonna take me."
"Well that's too bad for her. She can change her plans now can't she?"
Spencer put her plate by the sink. "Well I guess I'll just be going home then. Bye Ky, bye Ash." And she left.
"How rude, that girl didn't even say thank you for my wonderful breakfast."
"It sucked Grandma." Ashley said as she got up and grabbed her crutches to go after Spencer.
"Ashley Elizabeth Davies, you will not talk to me that way. You will show compassion for me and you will she respect to me as well."
Ashley turned to her. "I don't respect someone who disrespects my girlfriend!" And she slammed the door as she went out to get Spencer.
"Her what?" Grandma asked.
Kyla just stared wide-eyed at her and shrugged.
Outside Ashley was trying her best to get to Spencer before she pulled out of the driveway. "Babe, wait!"
Spencer stopped. "It's not you Ash; I just need to go home for a bit. If you need a ride to therapy, call me. I love you." She kissed her.
"Ok, I love you too." And Spencer left.
Ashley went back into the house where Kyla was still sitting at the bar and her grandmother was nowhere in sight. "You know you just outted yourself, right?"
Ashley nodded. "Where is she?"
"Calling mom."
Ashley sighed deeply. "Now mom's gonna be pissed cause she didn't want Grandma to know."
"She was gonna find out sooner or later."
"Yeah."
A few seconds later their grandmother walked back into the kitchen. "Well your mother was very surprised to learn about your little talking back to me Ashley."
Ashley shrugged. "What's she gonna do about it? Nothing, exactly."
"Where do you get off having this attitude with me young lady?"
"I'm tired of you just showing up and thinking you run this house. You have no say in what I do or how I live."
"Oh but I can take your money away."
"Ha! Does my money come from you? No. It comes from my father and you're not taking that away so don't even try to pull that shit with me. I may have fallen for it when I was younger, but now I know that you can't do anything about it. And I think it'd be best if you got back into that car of yours and went back or Oregon."
"Well, I never…" She grabbed her purse and left.
Kyla was facing Ashley and as soon as her grandmother left she began to laugh. "Oh my god Ash, that was awesome!"
Ashley smiled. "I try." She went to her room and called Spencer and told her the story and then asked her to pick her up to go to therapy.
Spencer picked her up in her new Porsche.
Ashley got in. "You like it?"
Spencer smiled. "I love it."
They got to therapy and Ashley was immediately taken to get x-rays done on her arm to determine if the sling could come off. The verdict was a yes and she got it off. The therapy session was great. They told her that within three weeks she could have her cast on her leg off but she would then have to partake in more intense therapy. After the session, the two girls went to lunch.
At lunch, Spencer pulled out a little black box. "Here, it's you birthday present."
Ashley took it and smiled. She opened the box and saw a white gold chain with a diamond encrusted number 8 charm." (Her number). "Oh my god, Spence, I love it!" She immediately put it on.
"Good." Spencer said as she received a kiss from Ashley.
They continued their lunch and as they were about to leave, Ashley's cell phone rang. She answered, "Hello?" She smiled. "Hey!" Pause. "Uh huh." Another pause as she listened. "Yeah, sure. I'd love to." Pause. "Ok, thanks dad. Love you too." She hung up and turned to Spencer. "We're going to Cabo San Lucasright after graduation."
(AN: Another chapter down. Lots more to go. I really don't know how long I plan on continuing this. I might just make it the duration of high school and then have a sequel or I might just keep going. I haven't decided yet. But I promise it's nowhere close to being over. Enjoy and let me know what you think.)
