Chapter Six
Spencer's POV
"Like, seriously! What the hell is she doing here! Fuck it, if she comes anywhere near you, I will chew her ass out!" Glen paces furiously in front of me, ranting on about Ashley.
I sigh. "I don't know why she's here Glen, for the one hundredth time. I don't want to think about this right now."
I get up and start walking away when I feel someone grab my hand. I turn around and Chelsea looks at me with pity.
"Spence, I know this is hard for you, but you can't just run away. We both know that was a big problem in yours and Ashley's relationship…" I grimace and look down at my feet. "Listen honey, if you want to talk, I'm here for you, okay?"
"Thanks Chels. I just, I don't know what to feel right now. I want her back so bad but at the same time, I'm still really mad."
"I know sweetheart. For now, you just need to relax and focus on the competition. Whatever happens with Ashley will happen. Everything happens for a reason." She gives me a hug and a smile before walking back to Glen, whose now talking to Clay and Aiden.
I sigh and look at the ocean. I relax a little and think that in just a little while, I'll be doing what I love.
Flashback
Spencer's POV
"SPENCER! ASHLEY'S HERE!" My dad yells up the stairs.
"THANKS DAD." I yell back, running down the stairs. Ashley looks up at me and smiles. I feel my pulse quicken as I pull her into a hug.
"Ready for the game?" She asks.
"Yup. Are you ready for UCLA to get their asses handed to them?"
"Um, no. Ohio State has nothing on UCLA."
A little while later, I'm laying on the couch with my head on her lap. She runs her fingers through my hair, making goose bumps appear on my arm. Ohio State is winning and I'm teasing her for it. She rolls me off of her and onto the floor, stealing my cell phone. I tackle her and try to wrestle my phone back. She rolls us over so she's on top and she straddles me. I stop moving and look at her. She's staring back. I sit up slowly as she leans in close. Our lips get closer and closer and-
"Hey Spence, do you guys want food?"
Ashley quickly gets off of me and sits back on the couch as my dad enters the room.
"Um, uh, sure dad, thanks." I run my fingers through my hair and inwardly curse my dad for walking in on us. I shake my head and then curse myself for even wanting to kiss her. She's off limits. She's my best friend and she's dating Aiden. Totally off limits. Fuck my life.
Present
Ashley's POV
"She ran away from the stage Madi…she still hates me." I groan as I sink down into the closest chair.
"Ugh. I never understood you two. You guys were so in love. Hell, you talked about getting married and now look at how you two are. Not even talking. Seriously chica, I want you to be happy but is she really worth all this?"
"Yes!" I saw angrily. "Madison, she's my everything and I fucked up so bad. I just want to try to make things right, get her back into my life again."
"You didn't fuck up. You two had each other on such tight leashes for God's sake. You guys never let the other do anything. She got jealous too easily, she needed to understand that you were young and deserved to have a life."
"Don't you dare put all this on her. I got jealous too. I never let her do anything too. And had I not messed up again, we'd still be together. God, this is all my fault." I bury my face into my hands.
She sighs. "Do what you have to do, Ash. Just don't get hurt again."
