An update. Aren't you happy? Ya better be. I wanted to post this yesterday but it wouldn't let me.

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

A couple of days pass and Ashley, Spencer and Kelsey got really close. Finally it was the last Friday of winter break and Kelsey had to go home. Ashley and Spencer decided to drive Kelsey to the airport to say their last goodbyes. Unfortunately Kelsey's plan on getting Spencer and Ashley to get together didn't happen. They got close but not close enough. Kelsey has no doubt they can't resist each other forever. They'll crack eventually. Its just a matter of time.

Kelsey: "I'm going to miss you two."

Spencer: "Aww. I'll miss you too."

Kelsey hugs Spencer and then Ashley. While Kelsey and Ashley are hugging each other, Kelsey whispers something in Ashley's ear.

Kelsey: "Spencer is yours now. Take care of her for me."

Ashley: "I will."

Kelsey and Ashley pull apart.

Kelsey: "And don't let her get into any fights."

Spencer: "That fight wasn't my fault."

Kelsey: "Uhuh. Well…"

At this point, Kelsey is trying to hold back her tears. She will really miss those two standing in front of her.

Kelsey: "Bye guys. If either of you are in Ohio, give me a call so we can hang out. Bye Lovies."

Ashley and Spencer-in a sad voice-: "Bye…."

Kelsey turns to walk away but turns back around and walks up to Spencer and kisses her on the cheek and then kisses Ashley on the cheek as well.

Kelsey: "Love you girls."

Spencer + Ashley: "We love you too."

Kelsey turns and walks away into the terminal and out of sight.

(Winter break is over and school is up again.)

After school, Spencer is in the gym. Spencer and Ashley are still the best of friends and nothing more.

The basketball team is practicing and Spencer is doing her homework on the bleachers when Ashley walks up to her, tired.

Ashley: "Gah. Why did winter break have to end?"

Spencer: "Why did Kelsey have to leave?"

Ashley and Spencer: "…school."

Ashley: "School is so overrated. Now I have to do my homework."

Spencer: "Wait. You don't do your homework."

Ashley: "I'm going to have to start so I can pass my classes. Well at least try. Argh."

Spencer: "You're failing!"

Ashley: "Close to it. But whatever. How hard can this homework thing be? Open a book, read a couple of lines, answer some questions and poof its over with. Right?"

Spencer: "Technically sure."

Ashley sits right beside Spencer, takes out her math book and looks at the problems she has to do tonight for homework.

Ashley: "Uhmmm. Yeah. Uhmmm. Wow. Right."

Ashley closes her book and drops it to the row of bleachers below her.

Ashley: "I tried. Oh well. What are you working on?"

Spencer: "Ashley you're going to have to try harder than that."

Ashley: "I did try. It was like a completely different language…except like in numbers."

Spencer: "So I guess that is a 'no' to actually paying attention during math class."

Ashley: "Yeah. No."

Spencer: "Well I guess you better pick up that book and look and try to learn what we learned in class today."

Ashley: "But but."

Spencer: "No buts. You should have been paying attention in class."

Ashley: "My mind was in other places. Not my fault."

Spencer: "And where was your mind?"

Ashley: ((On you)) "On vacation."

Spencer: "Nice. Well vacations over and you need to actually know what they are teaching us so you don't flunk."

Ashley: "I'm trying."

Spencer: "Uhuh. Says the book facing the ground."

Ashley: "Argh. The ground has a better chance in understanding that stuff than me."

Spencer: "Okay how bout this. I'll come over your house later and help you."

Ashley: "Alright but promise me you won't kill me."

Spencer: "Fine. I promise. I think I probably would miss you if I killed you. Maybe. Wait. No I don't think I would miss you."

Spencer looks back to her book and starts reading again. Ashley jaw drops and puts on a sad face.

Ashley: "Ouch. I see how it is. You don't care about me at all. I'll just go then and not waste your air."

Ashley starts to get up but Spencer, without looking up from book, places her hand on Ashley's left thigh to stop her from getting up. Ashley looks down at Spencer's hand and sits down. Spencer removes her hand from Ashley's leg and looks up from her book.

Spencer: "Hun. I was kidding have a sense of humor."

Ashley: "Sure you were. Reason why you are so focused on that book instead of me."

Spencer: "My mind has been focused on you for awhile. Don't you think it deserves a little break?"

Ashley didn't know how to take that but she had to say something.

Ashley: "I guess but I rather it be focused on me 24/7."

Spencer: "Too bad we can't get what we want."

Ashley puts on a pouting face. Spencer looks at the face and smiles.

Spencer: "You know I care about you and you can waste my air anytime you want."

Ashley: "Aww how sweet. I think I might take you on that offer of taking your air."

Ashley smiles and Spencer smiles back, both knowing the double standard in that statement.

Ashley: "Do you want to get out of here? Or do you like watching guys sweating and dribbling the ball."

Spencer: "Hmm. Well I was going to just get a ride with Aiden after his practice and spend some time with him…"

Ashley puts on her sad face again.

Spencer: "But…who can say 'no' to that face. But one thing. Let me finish this chapter first."

Ashley: "Alright. Fine but hurry up."

Spencer looks back down at her book and start reading again. Ashley looks down at Spencer's book and reads along in her head.

Ashley: ((This book is boring. Damn.))

Ashley looks around the gym and to the guys playing basketball. Ashley then turns to Spencer and looks at her. Spencer feels Ashley's eyes on her and smiles down at her book but continues reading. Ashley places her head on Spencer's shoulder and closes her eyes.

Ashley: "So tired."

Spencer stops reading and glances at Ashley, smiles and continues reading. Aiden stops running and sees Ashley's head on Spencer's shoulder, both smiling. Thoughts started to fill Aiden's head of thoughts of Ashley and Spencer. Aiden shakes the thoughts out of his head and continues playing basketball.

A couple minutes pass and Spencer closes her book.

Spencer: "Done reading."

Ashley opens her eyes.

Ashley: "Finally. Let's get out of here."

Spencer: "I don't know. I kind of not have been giving any attention to Aiden lately. Feel kind of bad."

Ashley: "Oh you have to tend to your boyfriend. Whatever. I waited around for nothing."

Spencer: "Ashley, calm down. Its just I feel sort of like I don't know."

Ashley: "Sort of like what? You know what. Whatever. Go hang with your boyfriend since you want to hang out with him more than me."

Spencer: "You know I love hanging out with you. Don't take this the wrong way Ashley."

Ashley: "It's okay. Whatever. I'll talk to you later."

Ashley gets up to leave.

Spencer: "Don't be mad Ash."

Ashley: "I'm not mad." ((Okay maybe I am but I need to be understanding. We are just friends.)) "I'm not. It's okay. Forget helping me with my homework tonight. I'll do it on my own. Have fun with Aiden."

Ashley walks out of the gym and Spencer watches her leave then takes out more of her homework and starts on it. She couldn't do anything. The blonde knows Ashley is not happy with her spending time with Aiden instead of her. After basketball practice and after Aiden took a shower, Aiden walks up to Spencer who was concentrating on her homework.

Aiden: "Hey Beautiful."

Spencer looks up.

Spencer: "Hey you. What's up?"

Aiden: "Just been missing my girlfriend, she's been occupied by her two mejor amigas during the winter break and had no time for me."

Spencer: "She is here now. So what do you want to do?"

Aiden: "Hmm. Want to go to the mall and hang out. Maybe catch a movie?"

Spencer: "Don't you have homework?"

Aiden: "I do but it can wait until after I hang out with my girl."

Spencer: "Alright then. It sounds good let's go."

------

Spencer and Aiden are outside the movie theaters. Conveniently the AMC movie theaters is part of the mall.

Spencer: "So what movie do you want to see?"

Spencer is looking at the times on the board above the ticket window.

Aiden: "Hmm I don't know."

Aiden steps behind Spencer and puts his arms around her waist.

Aiden: "What is the closest time?"

Spencer: "King Kong. But that is like a 3hr movie."

Aiden: "Sounds good to me. 3 hours of alone time with you."

Spencer: "Can't. I can't be home to late. It's a school night and I still have homework to finish."

Aiden: "Okay then what about…Fun With Dick and Jane."

Spencer: "Alright."

Right next door of the theaters, Ashley steps out of store with a little bag of stuff she bought. Ashley quickly sees Spencer but then sees Aiden's arms around her waist. Ashley looks down and frowns. Ashley looks up and stares at Spencer, trying to figure out what might be going through her mind. Spencer feels someone looking at her and looks to her left and sees Ashley looking at her. Spencer bites her lip and looks away. A bad feeling settled in the pit of her stomach. Ashley walks away not wanting to see the sight of Spencer in Aiden's arms. A range of emotion goes through Ashley the rest of the night. None of the feeling were good. She was sad, jealous, and then angry.
