For Your Sake

Disclaimer: I own nothing. Do you honestly think if I owned this show, I would be writing FanFic for it? No, I didn't think so. So no, I don't own S.O.N, Tom Lynch does. I love that guy!

Summary: Spencer tried to forget Ashley, for her parents' sake. But Ashley refused to accept that. Her desperate efforts to get Spencer back in her life.

-------------------

"Oh my god…" Spencer whispered and the tears started to fall silently down her cheeks, Ashley's hands wiping them away as quickly as they fell. "She's cheating on dad…"

"I'm so sorry Spencer…" Ashley whispered and pulled the blonde closer to her as she cried. "We should leave…"

"No, I want to face her about this." Spencer said firmly and she stood, dusting off the back of her legs, sand falling all around her. "Now."

"Spencer?" Ashley asked, jumping up with her, "Are you sure about this?"

"Of course." Spencer said, taking the brunette's hand and leading her down the beach to confront her mother.

Minutes later…

"Hey there mom!" Spencer called walking up to the older blonde woman.

"S-Spencer?" Paula gasped, but the mother in her quickly took over, "What are you doing here? What about school?"

"I could ask you the same thing mom, but what about work?" Spencer glared at her mother and the dark haired man holding her hand. "And who are you?"

"I…I'm Ben." 'Ben, the homewrecker' said, glancing at the blonde women nervously. "Hi."

"Ugh…" Ashley groaned, one hand going to her hip as she gave him one of her 'looks'. (A/N: We all know the 'looks', don't we, my friends?)

"Well, mom? You still haven't answered my questions." Spencer asked impatiently.

"I think you should answer mine first, young lady." Her mother said, glaring right back at her.

"Fine, you want the truth mom?" Spencer snarled, "I'm skipping school with Ashley today! I didn't feel like going after what you said about her and Lily, so Ashley came over and took me back to her place for the night. When we woke up, I didn't want to go to school, so we decided on coming to the beach." Spencer looked at her mother, breathing irregular as she gave her mother the answer. "Now what about you?"

"We wanted to take the day off, everything's been so hectic lately and we just wanted a break from it all." Paula explained, sighing heavily for dramatics. She couldn't believe she was explaining her actions to her daughter, of all people!

"So why didn't you take the day off with dad?" Spencer asked, still holding tight to Ashley's hand.

"Because…I, you know your father, he hates missing work." Paula stuttered out lamely.

"But he doesn't like it more than you!" Spencer cried, finally breaking. "How could you cheat on dad? Why mom? Why?"

"Spencer…" Paula cooed, reaching out for the younger blonde who pulled away when she felt her mother's hand on her arm.

"Don't touch me." Spencer snarled, backing away from the older blonde, "You stay away from us, and dad."

"Spencer!" Paula yelled, how dare her daughter say that!

But Spencer and Ashley had already turned and gone back to their spot on the beach. Far away from her and Ben.

With Spencer and Ashley…

"Are you ok, Spence?" Ashley asked, wrapping a comforting arm around the blonde's waist.

"Yeah." Spencer sighed, leaning into the embrace. "Thanks for being there with me."

"Anytime, Spencer, anytime." Ashley smiled, kissing her forehead.

"Let's go home Ash." Spencer whispered, pulling away slightly.

"Ok." Ashley smiled and they packed up their things, taking it all back to the car and getting in.

They drive back to Ashley's. (A/N: Sorry, I'm too lazy to write about their uneventful ride home, ya know sitting in traffic is very boring…)

"So…Now what?" Ashley asked, she just couldn't stop smiling at the blonde.

But before Spencer could answer, Ashley's cell phone was ringing.

"Oh god no." Ashley whispered, looking at the phone like it was going to bite her nose off.

"Who is it?" Spencer asked, coming to sit next to the brunette.

"It's Lily." Ashley answered, her voice emotionless.

"Oh god no." Spencer mimicked. "You still have to answer, if she goes to your voicemail…"

"I know." Ashley groaned and opened her phone, hitting the 'talk' button.

"Hello?" Ashley asked and then it began.

"Davies? Is Spencer there too?" Lily said immediately, "If she is, then put me on speaker phone."

"Ok…" Ashley groaned and made the switch.

"Hey? Ok, oh my god, you two ditched today and you left me out of it? What kinda friends are you? I mean, seriously. I was stuck with Aiden all day, that boy seriously needs to get laid, the whole freaking day he's sitting there drooling at every girl that passes by, even Madison. Speaking of Madison, she was like smiling and waving to me when I was sitting in the quad for lunch and Aiden was like 'You two should hook up…And let me watch' and I was ready to kick him in the balls. I mean, EW! The boy has no taste, no offense Davies, I know he had some taste when you two dated but still, what's his problem? We gotta get him a girl…Or maybe we should just get him a guy and be done with it? Ha-ha. But yeah you know that paper that due for Taylor at the end of the week is…"

As Lily continued to rant and rave, Ashley looked at Spencer, both of them were just gaping the phone, but more importantly, at Lily.

"…So I got the three of us an extension, cuz I know you're not done with it, Davies and I wasn't sure about Spencer so…"

"Oh my god…" Spencer mouthed.

Ashley on the other hand, could barely contain her laughter.

"…Hey! Are you two even listening to me? Hey!" Lily yelled but to no avail. "Hey!"

--------------------

I am back! And better than ever! Maybe…Ha-ha. You'll have to tell me how I'm doing…Through those lovely reviews, my friends.

Oh and in case anyone's wondering (which ya'll probably aren't)…My gf and I reconciled and it's all good.

Ok, so that little bluish-purple button in the left corner? Click it…NOW!
