Smart In A Stupid Way

Chapter 2

By: babygirl2006

(Ashley's POV)

I reached over and turned my alarm clock off. I flipped the covers off and started down the hall. I opened the bedroom door then shut it again. Spencer moved a little over 2 months ago. And still every morning I get up from my bed and go down the hall to wake her up, just she isn't there anymore. I thought I would have stopped by now but it was a route for 3 years. Guess it is going to take awhile to get used too. I heard my phone ringing. I ran into my bedroom and picked up the phone.

"Hello?"

"Good morning sunshine." Spencer said all cheery.

"What is with you?" I asked the blonde on the other end of the phone.

"I had the best night, last night. It was so amazing. This guy..." I blocked her out after that. She paused in whatever she was saying. "Ash?"

"Yeah?"

"You aren't listening to me. Are you?"

"Look, I have to go. I'll call you later." I hung up the phone and headed for the shower. Why is it we are still such good friends? Well, its like this. I love her so much but I couldn't tell her that because relationships ruin everything. We wouldn't be friends anymore if we broke up. I won't let myself have all of her then one day have none of her at all. So, I am stuck watching her think she is in love with have the guys she is with and I am stuck with only half of her and I will keep that half forever if we stay friends. Just friends. So, my choices are half forever or all and none. I would be broken, beyond repair if we ended a relationship together. So, you see why I don't tell her. Yeah, maybe she feels something for me too. I am not taking that chance though. I guess what I am saying is if I thought she had feeling for me, she would have to come to me first.

"Hey! Sorry about that. I had to take a shower." I called Spencer back. I felt bad for hanging up like that.

"What did you have to get your fling out of the apartment?" She said with a smirk.

"Not that, that is any of your business but no."

"Whatever." She paused. "How have you been? I know its been awhile since I called or you could get a hold of me. I have been really busy with..."

"With guys." I said interrupting her. She didn't say anything. "Look, I'm still living, right? So, there is no need to worry about me. How are you?"

"Great."

"Thats awesome. But sorry to cut this short but I have to go. I have things to do. I'll call you later. Okay?"

"Yeah, later." She said with a hint of anger and sadness in her voice.

"Spence, don't do that. Okay? Your not the only one that is busy. It just happens to be that I am busy when you aren't. I can't do anything about that."

"That didn't stop you from taking me with you before."

"It never stopped you either. I haven't talked to you in three weeks. You know you had 10 minutes here and there to talk to me. Having you so far away and not talking to you is already pissing me off. So, don't blame me for us not talking. I call you like 3 times everyday and I get a 'let me call you back'. I get that maybe twice a week. Other then that its your voice mail. At least when you call me, I try and stop what I am doing to talk to you. So, don't piss me off over the situation."

"Fine. Whatever. Call me when you can." She said and then I heard a dial tone. Why? Why? Why now? My days just keep getting better and better. I grabbed my cell phone and headed out the apartment. I opened the door and locked it. I walked down the hall to the elevator and went to the basement for my car. I got in my car and drove away. I put my ear piece in my ear and pushed to then send.

"Hello?"

"Look, I don't want to fight with you. We are both busy and living in different cities, which makes it hard to talk or see one another. Maybe we should text each other."

" Yeah maybe. And yes, I could try a little more to call you. Text would be good. The reason why I called though. What are you doing this weekend?" Spencer said. Her voice was getting back to cheery.

"I believe nothing. Why?"

"Because, I was thinking that I could come down to LA. What do you think?"

"What do you think, I think?"

"Good point. So, I'll see you Thursday night. I took Friday off. Train station 6 pm. Don't forget."

"How am I going to forget about you? That would be impossible."

"You have before. Remember 12th grade?"

"No need to bring that up. I apologized a thousand times already for that." I told her and she giggled at me. "So tomorrow at 6?"

"No Thursday."

"Tomorrow is Thursday, dear."

"Oh right. Yeah then tomorrow at 6."

"Okay see you then."

"Hey.. I didn't say hang up yet. I still want to talk on the phone."

"Sorry." I told her and we talked until I made it to the office.

-------\

I am on my way to the train station. Spencer said someone is coming with her. Someone she would like me to meet. She said they had been going out for almost 2 months. So, she meet someone else right after she moved down there. She won't tell me a name or what they looked like or anything. The train should have already come. I am running a little late. Well half hour late. It is 6:30. I pulled up in front of the train station and called Spencer's cell phone.

"Where you at?"

"Calm down. I didn't forget about you. I am running a little late but I am here now. So, where are you?"

"Never mind. I see you." She said then hung up on me. I got out of the car and looked around me. I still didn't see her.

"Guess who?" She said putting her hands over my eyes from behind me.

"Let me guess. You have blonde hair. Your about 5'3. About a hundred and..."

"Don't even say it."

"Okay, Okay." I turned around and pulled her into a big hug, lifting her off the ground. She just hugged me back, shoving her face into my neck. "God, I missed you so much." I added. I let her feet touch the ground but we are still hugging.

"I missed you too." She whispered into my neck. I heard someone clear their throat behind me. I looked up and it is a brunette about the same hight as Spencer. She has brown eyes and she looks like she is pretty active. Probably one of those girls who jogs every morning. Spencer pulled out of the hug and looked at the girl and smiled.

"Ashley, this is Carol. Carol, this is Ashley." Spencer introduced us. She extended her hand. I told her hand and shook it. "This is who I wanted you to meet." Spencer whispered to me. This is great. Nice way to come out to your best friend, shoving another girl in their face. Why couldn't she of said something to me? This is crap and I don't like it one bit. Or this chick one bit. I grabbed Spencer's bag and put it in the trunk then got into the car. We drove to my apartment listening to the radio. No one said anything. Spencer knew I was upset or mad. Whatever I am right now. I don't know if I am mad or upset but I am one of them or both of them. I am both of them. And I need to shut up. I am just rambling. This weekend is going to suck.
