Hey I'm back with the sequel to "Going Somewhere?" I hope you like it. More conflict in this one.

Spencer was watching tv, Ashley was on the computer. It was a Sunday night that they didn't have Parker, and they where comfortable lounging at home. They sat in silence. Ashley checked her e-mail. There was one from Skye. Subject: "You're gonna want to see this right now!"

"Ash, I've attached an e-mail that I just received to this message. I just can't believe it. Call me when you're done reading it."

Ashley read on

"Dear Ms. Stevens,

In response to your inquiry, we have found your birth mother in our databases. That means we can divulge her name to you, but until we contact her ourselves, we will not give you any more information about her. Her name is Ashley Davies."

"Holy Shit," Ashley muttered. She couldn't let Spencer hear her. How was she going to tell Spencer that not only did she have a daughter, but that daughter was Skye, "I have to call Skye," she croaked to herself. She did, but it wasn't easy, "Skye?"

"Hey Ash, I take it you read my e-mail. I'm sorry I couldn't tell you out loud."

"Yeah."

"Bizarre isn't it? You choose me to play you, and in the end, we find out that I'm your daughter," Skye couldn't call Ashley 'my Mom' yet, "You're a lesbian though, how did you have a kid?"

"Skye, I need time to process this. Then I'll answer any question you have. First, I have to talk to Spencer. Lets have dinner next Saturday. 6 pm?"

"Fine."

"I'll pick you up. See you then. Bye," Ashley hung up the phone and turned to Spencer. She just couldn't say anything. She sat down on the couch next to Spencer, "What are you watching?"

"Nothing yet. Here, you pick something," she handed Ashley the remote and studied her face, "Are you okay? You're pale."

"I'm just fine."

"Okay."

As they sat there, Spencer could feel a tenseness in Ashley. Ashley wasn't telling her something. They sat in silence for a few minutes before Spencer finally cracked under the awkwardness.

"You're not telling me something," Spencer said quietly, "We're supposed to be able to talk. What in the hell is going on?"

"Spencer!" Ashley yelled.

"What?" Spencer snapped back, "Spit it out."

Ashley did so, "Skye is my daughter," she blurted.

"What!" Spencer shouted in disbelief, "How?"

"The summer after I graduated, I thought love was a joke. I just wanted some excitement. I had a couple of flings with guys. I got out of the city, rented a cheap apartment, and got a job as a checker at a pharmacy until I had to stop working. I gave birth to Skye March 12th at 7:21 pm. I gave her up for adoption. That was the hardest day of my life. I had no one to talk to or confide in. I had no friends left. I'd alienated the few I had. You where off leading your perfect college life, and we where in that fight before graduation."

"You left without telling me where you were. Until I saw you at the ten year reunion, I was worried about you. I tried to call your cell, but it was disconnected."

"My mom cut me off. I had to get rid of all but the essentials."
