Thanks for the positive replies. I know this is a bit different of my writing that you're use to but like one person commented. Its a whole new world of drama.

A couple minutes pass and Spencer had to break the silence.

Spencer: "What the hell was that?"

Kelsey stops rubbing her redden forearms and looks at Spencer for the first time during the ride in the truck bed.

Kelsey: "you shouldn't of come here."

Kelsey turns her attention to Ashley.

Kelsey: "I told you to stop her from coming here."

Ashley: "Well that wasn't an option I can choose. "

Spencer: "What the hell was that?"

Kelsey lets out a sigh, trying to hold her annoyance and frustration.

Kelsey: "That is Nick, drunk with anger that he needed to take it out on someone."

Spencer and Ashley were speechless for a couple of minutes.

Kelsey: "You shouldn't of come here."

Spencer: "And why not?"

Kelsey looks at the scenery going by them and ignores Spencer's question. Spencer was not about to let up. She wanted an answer.

Spencer: "And why not!"

Kelsey: "…because its not safe alright. Especially around me right now!"

Spencer: "How is it not safe?"

Kelsey: "For one…Nick…and I made some waves with the wrong people and made some enemies."

Spencer: "What do you mean you made enemies? How!"

Kelsey: "A situation I got myself in turned bad. Don't worry about it. I'll figure it out."

Spencer: "Are you in trouble?"

Kelsey: "You can say that."

Spencer: "What kind of trouble?"

Kelsey: "Will you just shut up Spencer and stop with the questions!"

Spencer is taken back from Kelsey's sudden outburst. Ashley sees this and decided to cut in.

Ashley: "Whoa Kelsey calm down."

Kelsey lets out a sigh and puts her head in her hands.

Kelsey: "It's nothing I can't handle."

Spencer notices the redness on Kelsey's forearms.

Spencer: "Yeah you're handling that really well."

Spencer points to Kelsey's arms.

Kelsey: "I am at a stalemate with that."

Spencer: "What do you mean?"

Kelsey: "My mom is somewhere out on a business cruise and I can't get a hold of her. My dad is in a bind with money down in Florida. So I have no where to go right now. A stale mate."

Spencer: "What are you going to do?"

Kelsey: "I need more money and I have way of raking in some cash. When I get enough I am going to Florida."

Spencer: "What way is that?"

Kelsey: "Don't worry about it!"

That was the second time, Kelsey has snapped at Spencer. Spencer senses there is way more than what Kelsey is telling her. This is not completely the Kelsey she knows and loves. There is something different. Something different in her eyes. Spencer doesn't know what it is but she thinks it desperation, anger, disappointment, what ever it is, it is not good. The truck turns in an apartment complex and parks.

Kelsey jumps out of the bed of the truck. Ashley and Spencer follow in close pursuit. The car door opens and out steps out their mystery driver. The driver was a girl with jet black hair, a lot like Kelsey but with some red highlights. The driver and Kelsey had similar features but the driver was a little shorter than Kelsey. They both stood strong and had sweet abs. The driver was wearing a mini skirt and a red spaghetti strap top. Where as, Kelsey was wearing ripped jeans and a black tight shirt that read "Good girls are bad girls that never get caught". Spencer recognizes the driver immediately, Kelsey's older cousin.

Spencer: "Ellie?"

Ellie: "In the flesh."

Spencer: "Oh my god."

Spencer walks over to her and gives her a hug.

Spencer: "Oh my god! How long has it been?"

Ellie: "I say about 2 years."

Spencer: "Oh my god look at you, you changed. You hated wearing skirts."

Ellie: "Looks can be deceiving. But look at you."

Ellie steps back and looks at Spencer. Spencer was wearing jeans and a blue shirt.

Ellie: "Still the same. You haven't changed one bit. You still pull off the simple but beautiful look. It is no wonder I had a crush on you, a sweet babe like you."

Spencer smiles and slightly blushes but keeps eye contact with Ellie. Ashley catches on to the flirting and is not pleased at all. Ashley clears her throat to catch Spencer's attention. Spencer finally realizes Ashley was behind her. Spencer steps aside so Ellie can see Ashley.

Spencer: "Ellie, this is Ashley."

Ashley: "Her Girlfriend."

Ashley made sure Ellie heard the 'girlfriend' part. Ashley steps forwards and puts her arm around Spencer's waist.

Ellie: "Ahh. Kelsey did tell me something about an Ashley when I asked how Spencer has been. But I didn't know how serious it was or she just wanted me to back off if any case if we saw each other again."

Kelsey: "Believe me. It was also for you to back off. She's off limits now. THANK GOD."

Kelsey turns to Spencer and Ashley with a first smile Spencer and Ashley seen when seeing Kelsey.

Kelsey: "When did this happen?"

Ashley: "A couple of hours ago when I caught her at the airport."

Kelsey: "Good for you guys."

Kelsey glares at her older cousin.

Kelsey: "Right Ellie?"

Ellie puts on a fake smile.

Ellie: "Yeah…good for you two."

Kelsey: "Alright let's go inside."

Spencer: "Why are we here?"

Kelsey: "My new home."
