Chapter Five

"You…" Ashley couldn't find the words. Nothing seemed to be coming out of her mouth but air. Her forehead scrunched up in confusion, her bottom lip trembled as she stared at the blonde.

Spencer, unable to take the glare that Ashley's eyes were burning into her moved from the bed and started to pace in front of Ashley's closet. "I'm sorry Ash, I know that it's not what you want to hear."

Ashley's chest tightened and she brought her hand to her heart, checking that she was still alive. "This has to be some kind of nightmare," she whispered. "Did I…did I do something wrong Spencer. Please, tell me and I'll change whatever it was that…whatever I did to make you hate me."

Spencer's eyes snapped up, "I don't hate you Ashley. God, how could you even think that?"

"How could I not?"

Spencer sighed, "I just think that we've been spending too much time together and…"

"But you're all I have," Ashley said, so quietly that Spencer could barely hear it.

She moved to sit beside Ashley, "You have Aiden." Ashley scoffed at that. "Come on Ash, it's not like we have to stop seeing each other."

"Then what is it like Spencer?" Ashley asked, gazing her confused eyes into Spencer's.

"We just…need some space."

"But why? What did I do?" Ashley begged.

Spencer stood back up, rubbing her hands up and down her arms, "You didn't do anything Ash."

"Then what is so wrong with being my friend?" Ashley asked, her voice raising.

"I just need a break Ash. I can't be around you right now," Spencer said, backing up slightly when the brunette stood up.

"But why? You're avoiding the question Spencer. Why can't you be around me?"

"Because every time I am…" she started.

"What?" Ashley yelled, anger and confusion filling the room.

"Because every time I am all I can think about it kissing you!" Spencer yelled. Exhausted and confused she sat back down on the bed, leaving an even more confused Ashley staring down at her.
