Chapter 37: When It Rains
The rain continued to pour for the third day straight as Spencer sat atop a lone chair near an open curtained window. The paddle paddle of rain drops on window, the clanking loud ringing of chimes, the whoosh of the cold wind, the light scrape of branches on the house and windows all brought peace to Spencer's mind. She felt at ease with her mind because all night she had been worrying that something bad was about to happen. She had this gut feeling that everything was not ok. That something was off. So, she sat staring out the window looking at the happening of a literal storm as a figurative one was in production. Skies were greying in Spencer's world. Greyed clouds carried mass loads of precipitation ready to drop and bring destruction on something so brilliant.
Little did Spencer know the storm happening outside the window, the storm she found so peaceful and amazingly beautiful held some meaning of a disastrous occurrence that was about to happen in her life. The cold bitter wind, the continuous rainfall, the roaring thunderous sounds, the flicker of lightning, the destruction of something beautiful, they all meant something beyond themselves.
Spencer's phone buzzed in her lap and she instantly smiled seeing the all to familiar number and goofy picture blinking on her screen. She pressed the talk button and brought the ear to her phone.
Spencer: "Hey Ash."
Ashley: "Hey babe. Why you up so early?"
Spencer: "I haven't slept."
Ashley: "Why baby what's wrong? Are you ok? Is something the matter? You can tell me I don't care."
Spencer: "Ash, everything is fine, I just can't sleep is all."
Ashley: "Oh. Ok. So do you want to hang out or something. I know it's all ugly and rainy outside so I was thinking maybe something at my house. Like movies and pizza."
Spencer: "I would love that Ash. Just give me a couple of hours because my mom gets real suspicious when I'm gone before she's left."
Ashley: "Ok. Maybe you should get some sleep beforehand."
Spencer: "I'll try. I'll call you later when crazy woman leaves."
Ashley: "Haha ok Spence. Bye."
Spencer: "Bye."
Spencer pressed the end button on her phone and set it back in her lap. She brought her eyes back to the rainy morning and sighed. What was wrong? She didn't know but something was going to happen and she knew it and hoped she was prepared for whatever it was.
Spencer rose to her feet and lifted the chair back to its rightful place at the end of the dinner table. She padded her socked feet along cold tile floor and ran to the carpeted stairs and then up to her room. She closed her door and laid herself on her bed. She shut her eyes trying to push away the thought and feelings of disaster but they stayed as the rain of this figurative life storm began to drizzle down in small, cold, painful drops.
Spencer shut her eyes unaware of the newly lighted skies and fresh drops of rain.

Ashley flinched at the sound of thunder. A chuckle was then uttered beside her causing her to turn her head to show an amused Kyla smirking back at her.
Kyla: "We got a little fraidy cat don't we?"
Ashley: "Shut up Kyla. I'm not scared."
A crackle of lightning and the flicker of lights caused Ashley to jump up off her seat and land beside Kyla and grasping the girl's arm. Kyla curiously looked at her frightened sister and raised her eyebrow.
Kyla: "Are you sure?"
Ashley retracted herself and rolled her eyes at her sister as she took her seat back on the stool beside the island.
Kyla: "So what's in store for the day sis?"
Ashley: "Spence is going to come over later and we're just going to hang out here." Kyla began to smile ready to ask but Ashley shook her head. "And no you are not invited."
Kyla: "Why notttt?"
Ashley: "Because it's a day for me and Spence and we don't want you to interrupted."
Kyla: "Come on you know I have nothing to do."
Ashley: "Go hang out with Aiden or something."
Kyla: "Glamour boy is boring and I don't feel like hanging out with any boys."
Ashley: "Oh well. You can't hang out with us."
Kyla: "You're such a bitch Ash."
Kyla walked off as Ashley silently said to herself 'I know'.
The doorbell rang and Ashley got up from her high stool and slowly made her way towards the door. Behind that door lay a gush of wind, a wash of rain, and clouds of confusion.

Spencer awoke to a slight roar of thunder. She grabbed her phone and saw the time on her phone reading 11:34am.
At least I got some sleep and hopefully mom is gone.
Spencer rose from her bed and slightly stretched. She looked out the window and noticed that it indeed was still raining as droplets hit her window in a continuous perfect form. The paddle paddle was like a consistent beat forever going on. It was a broken record that Spencer enjoyed and didn't want to fix.
She made her way down the stairs and heard the ring of her doorbell.
Who would be here on a day like this?
She began to walk a little faster down the stairs so she could get the door but was beat by another blonde. Paula opened the door where a gush of wind, a wash of rain, and a crackle of destructive lightning stood.
--
Ashley: "Ma...Ma...Madison...What are you doing here?"
The drenched Latina girl stood with drops of rain and tears mixed on her tanned cheeks. She stood with her arms crossed, head down, with feet pointed inward. She was no longer that confident cheery bitch. She was the opposite of herself. Well the self she was known as.
Ashley: "Madison what are you doing here?"
This was said through clenched teeth as the remembrance of what this girl did to her.
Madison: "Ashley...can I...can I please talk to you?"
Ashley nodded her head remembering that at one point they were friends. She gestured the girl inside with her arms.
Ashley: "Do you want a towel or a change of clothes or something?"
Ashley didn't know why she was being so nice to the girl who had broken her heart almost two years ago. She didn't know why the anger had been pushed aside and why the knowing of her presence in such a fragile remembered state was bringing a warming sensation about her. She shook her head and looked back at the girl awaiting the chattering and shivering girl's answer.
Madison: "Yeah...if...if that wouldn't be to much of a problem."
Ashley: "I'll be back."
Ashley ran off to her room to get the clothes for Madison to only have that warm sensation be gone. She then noticed that her heart had slowed. Why did her heart pick up speed in the first place? She didn't know but pushed it aside as she found clothes for Madison.

Paula opened the door to a smiling and drenched Jared. Spencer's eyes widened at the sight of him and hoped that he wasn't here to do what he had so promisingly adhered to do those many months ago. She saw her mom gesture him in. She saw the glint of payback flicker in his eyes as his head rose and met Spencer's fearful blue orbs. She saw his admirable smile turn into a smirk. It switched back to a smile as Paula handed him a towel and gestured him towards the kitchen.
In fear Spencer ran down the steps and into the kitchen to see her mom chattering away and preparing hot chocolate to the boy who was about to sabotage her and destroy her life for good.
Paula looked up from what she was doing and noticed her daughter and the lovely Jared staring at one another. The stares of hate and payback was mistaken for attraction and reunions as she smiled.
Paula rushed to her seat beside Jared and handed him his cup of hot chocolate as Spencer stayed standing behind her with pleading eyes.
Paula: "So, honey what brings you here on such a rainy day?"
Jared: "I just wanted to drop by. I haven't seen any of you for such a long time since Spencer and I broke up."
Paula: "I never got to apologize for my daughter's terrible judgement. I am so very sorry Jared. She thinks she doesn't know what's best for her."
Jared: "I believe that as well Mrs. Carlin. She thought someone else would make her happy when her happiness and wonderful future was standing in front of her."
Paula: "Someone else?" Paula turned at met eyes with Spencer. "Who is this someone?"
Jared smiled and Spencer closed her eyes.
Jared: "I guess she hasn't told you Mrs. Carlin."
Paula: "Told me what."
Spencer: "Jared...please."
Paula: "What are you hiding from me?!"
The first sound of thunder rang in Spencer's ears as the storm her life was becoming worsened.
Jared: "Tell her Spencer."
Jared smirked as Paula remained staring at her closed eyed daughter awaiting her confession. Spencer wasn't ready. She didn't want this to happen like this. She needed Ashley and she wasn't here. She didn't want this to happen.
Paula: "Tell me what?"
At this point Paula had turned her attention back to Jared telling her with her eyes to hurry the hell up and tell her what's going on.
Jared: "That she..."
Spencer: "That I'm gay."
The rain fell harder and harder as Paula's eyes clouded over with anger. Fire appeared in such icey blue eyes. Fire was on the surface of the Arctic.
Tears began to fall from Spencer's eyes. Rain fell and fell both literally and figuratively. Paula rose from her seat and slapped Spencer across the face. At instant she felt the sting. Needle-like rain drops falling on her face quickly and all at once from the storm her life had become.
Paula: "It's Ashley isn't it? It's that stupid whore isn't it?! Answer me dammit!"
More roars of thunder again and again. Another splash of needle-like raindrops. But Spencer remained standing drenched in her own tears and fears.
Paula: "You disgust me! You hear me?! You sicken me! I can't believe you! You are a disgrace and you are going to rot in hell."
With those last words and an unfiery but now cold, bitter, freezing stare from Paula she stormed out of the house and slammed the door. Spencer reacted quickly and ran following her mother out the door and into the pelting rain.
Spencer: "Mom! Please just let me explain!"
Paula shook her head and got into her car. She started it up and backed out of the driveway. The car was then for in an angle so that the lights shined on Spencer. This small light brought hope and Spencer saw a glimpse of sunshine and warmth but in an instant the light no longer shined her as it flickered away and rode off into the night. Her mother was gone and she knew that things would no longer be the same.
Spencer dropped to her knees and cried as two storms bombarded down on her. She sunk to the dampened ground, the muddy and dying grass is where she was pounding her small fists. She cried and cried as cold wind blew around her, lighted skies flickered, thunder roared and roared, and rain fell and fell with no stop.
After what seemed like hours Spencer rose and slowly walked into her house with one person on her mind...Ashley.
She reacher her phone and dialed the all to familiar number to get a voicemail. She called again and again and got the same cheery voice of Ashley's voicemail.
What is she doing that's so important?
Spencer dropped to her knees once again and dropped her phone along the way. She cried and cried with no one to stop the tears, to hold her through her first terrifying storm. The thunder shook her, the lightning made her squirm, the rain felt like needles and hurt her, and the wind made her freeze. The pain was unbearable. The pain of this so alive storm hurt so much as Spencer sank lower and lower just wanting and needing Ashley.
