Thank you all for the reviews! No more flashbacks. Here you go!


Ashley's POV

Wow. My dad. If I could pick one word to describe him, AWOL; Okay, so it's not really a word, an acronym rather. I could associate him to quite a few acronyms actually. MIA, definitely. Oh here's another, ASS! Okay yeah that's a word. But whatever. I can't believe this. That's the last time I'll ever see him. Maybe I'm being to hard on him. I just know that he wasn't there for me. He tried. But obviously not that hard. Maybe there's more to the story than I know about. What else is there though? It seems pretty simple to me. He knocked my mom up, went on God only knows how many tours, and never really kept in touch. I'm starting to stare off to the sun rising in front of me. I'm not sure how much time passes until Spencer breaks the silence. She sings to me.

Spencer: "Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
We all have a sickness
That cleverly attaches and multiplies
No matter how hard we try.
We all have someone that digs at us,
At least we dig each other"

We both laugh and I smile at her. She takes this as a good sign so she keeps singing.

Spencer: "Remind me that we'll always have each other
When everything else is gone.
Oh each other...
When everything
Else is gone."

Ashley: "Spence, thanks for being here for me."

Spencer: "Anything for you."

Ashley: "Do you want to go for a walk?"

Spencer: "Definitely"

She stands up first and offers her hand to help me up. I take it and stand. I don't let go of her hand. We just start walking along the shore. We don't talk. We don't need to. After about 10 minutes I stop, my legs feel like they're going to give out.

Ashley: "Spence, do you think I would be allowed to stay at your house for a few days? I don't want to be around my mom right now. All she'll be talking about is the will. I can't handle that."

Spencer: "You didn't even have to ask. I was texting my dad a bit ago and he said it's fine, and that he's really sorry about your dad."

Ashley: "Ah. What did I do to deserve such an amazing girlfriend? Phew. I really don't think I can walk any farther."

Spencer: "It's alright. We managed to work our way back to your car anyways."

Ashley: "Good thing."

Spencer: "So where to?"

Ashley: "Let's head back to my house. I need to talk to my mom."

We climb into the car and once again Spencer is driving. I know this is illegal but I have no energy whatsoever. Before I know it, Spencer is opening the door and helping me out of the car. I spaced out again. I get out of the car and we walk to the door. I twist the knob and push the door. It's locked. That's really weird. I look over at Spencer and she hands me my keys. I put the key into the lock and turn it. No good. What the hell is going on? Oh. My. God.

Ashley: "That stupid bitch! She changed the locks!"

I start kicking the door out of anger but I'm quickly reminded that I kicked a TV last night. Ouch!

Spencer: "Ash it's alright. I can get us in."

Ashley: "How? We can't break a window. The neighbors will hear that. And-"

Spencer: "Settle down. I read a lot if you haven't noticed."

She starts digging in her purse and pulls out some bobby pins and other random things. I'm amazed when she starts to pick the lock on my front door.

Ashley: "Wow, Spence. I can honestly say I never saw this coming."

She doesn't answer me. She looks really determined to get the door open. Just then I hear a click and the door opens.

Ashley: "I hate to repeat myself. But you're an exception. What did I do to deserve such an amazing girlfriend?"

We walk inside about 3 feet from the door.. I see a piece of paper on the floor as soon as we walk in. It's from my mom.

Ashley: "Well this is nice."

I read the note.

Ashley,

I can't stick around with what's happening at the moment. It's too dramatic for me.

Try to stay out of trouble, would you?

Ashley: "Bitch."

Spencer: "I'm sorry, Ash."

Ashley: "It's okay. We might as well get some of my stuff while we're here."

I start to follow Spencer up the stairs but I stop and hear sirens. Shit. This cannot be happening. Before I know it, a police officer rushes through the front door, which was already open thanks to my stupidity.

Cop: "Hold it right there young lady."

Ashley: "Sir, you don't understand."

Cop: "Oh of course I don't understand. Get your hands in the air!"

This is ridiculous. I'm getting arrested for going into my house. He puts the handcuffs on me and puts me into the car.

Cop: "Psht. Nice try. Breaking in to the Davies house. Make some money off of the dead rocker's stuff, yeah?"

Ashley: "Ha, yeah. How stupid of me."
