Spencer's POV
Wow. That's all I can say when I seen Jessica and Kyla kissing but my mind was quickly occupied with Ashley. She is just so… beautiful! Before we went to bed we sat up talking just about our pasts. She said that she just lives with her sister and her mom but her mom is never home and that her dad died in a car crash and she told me all about her and lily and how she's over her.
I told her that I hardly see my family and they basically hate and don't care for me and I told her about Hailey. She was very concerned for me and I told her I was getting better about it.
When we got to school the next morning Kyla took off followed by Jessica so me and Ashley went our separate ways. I can tell while we were walking Ash was deciding to hold my hand or not because she kept looking at my hand. I just smiled to myself and grabbed her hand making the move.
She smiled over at me and I smiled back and then I heard someone sneer, "What the hell Ashley? I thought she was your enemy?" We both looked up. It was some girl in a cheer outfit.
"Well we kind of got over it no thanks to you, but I guess you're the new enemy. I can't believe you did that and signing my name that I did it," Ashley snarled back. But something caught my eye that I was distracted from their argument.
I seen a girl that looked exactly like Hailey, I mean spitting image of her. At first I thought it was her but then I remembered; she's gone. I get lost at thought when Ashley brings me out of it. "Hey Spence, are you okay?" She looked at me concerned.
"Yea I'm fine. Let's get to class." I say grabbing her hand and heading off to class. When we get to my class I say, "Well you should get to class huh?" I look at her in the eyes and notice how gorgeous they are.
"Yea…" She gave me a hug and kiss on the cheek and said bye before heading off to her class with me watching her all the way till she was out of sight. I went through the rest of the day mostly thinking about Ashley and some what about Hailey until it was time for lunch.
When the bell rang I immediately jumped out of my seat ready to go see Ashley but when I got out of class I bumped into someone making both of us drop our books. I look at the girl and it just so happens to be Nicole. I help her pick up her books while I pick up mine and we both just stand there.
"Hey Spencer, haven't seen you in awhile," She said just above a whisper.
"Yea well same here, I might have Ashley drive me home today, you know if you guys want me home," I didn't really know what to say I haven't see them in a few days.
"Yea, we want you home Spence. Mom's actually worried. She's afraid you killed yourself or someone killed you," I kind of scoff at what she said. Sure she cared.
"Okay well… I'll be home tonight for sure," I say while playing with my lip ring with my tongue; a nervous habit or something. Then Lily comes up and stops between the two of us.
"Dude, Ashley has been waiting for you, come on" Lily drags me off to Ashley's table and all three of us sit down.
"Where were you?" Ashley asked waiting for an answer.
"I was talking to my sister. Oh and is it okay for you to take me home after school?"
"Yea that's fine." And we began to eat in silence and then Jessica comes up and sits down sullenly.
"Hey Jess you okay?" Ash asks looking at her suspiciously.
"Kyla is at the hospital for breaking her hand for punching Chris," She said just sitting there looking down.
"Oh shit I would have done the same thing, good for Ky, just not the hand thing," Ashley said taking another bite of her meal.
The rest of the table fell into conversation about Kyla and other school stuff until the bell rang. The rest of the day went by pretty well but still thinking about the same people. This whole Hailey thing is really bugging me though.
Ashley took me home right after school. I see both my mom's and dad's car in the drive way. "You want to come in?" I ask looking at her before getting out. She thinks for a little bit and then nods her head yes and we both get out heading to the house. Before I open the door I hear laughter but then when I open the door it went silent, okay. I see everybody sitting on the couch looking at me then at Ashley.
"Uhmm hey guys," I say kind of feeling awkward.
"Oh honey, you're safe," My dad says getting up and giving me a hug.
"yep, oh and everybody this is Ashley," I say introducing Ashley to them my mom and Nicole just give a nod her way but my dad gave her a hug and said, "Any friend of Spencer's is a friend of mine."
A couple weeks pass and everything seems to be going good. Ashley is always at my house or I'm always at hers and surprisingly my family totally accepts her. She's part of the family but I haven't told them yet that we are going out. But ever since I thought I seen Hailey that day every night I had a dream about her, each one either playing our special moments or that dreadful day. I haven't told Ashley about the dreams but I know she can tell something is wrong because I have been real mopey lately.
Me and Ash were laying on my bed listening to music when Ash asked, "Babe, are you okay?" She looked down at me while playing with my hair.
"Ash, what are you talking about I'm fine," I say first looking into her eyes but then back down to my hands where I was playing with the hem of my shirt. Ashley brought my chin back up and gave me a peck on the lips and asked me again, "What's wrong?" with sad puppy dog eyes. Hey she's not suppose to be sad, I am.
I tell her all about the dreams of Hailey and I began to softly cry. She holds me and whispers into my ear, "Everything will be okay, I'm here" We sat there for awhile till my sister came to tell us dinner was ready. We went down stairs and sat at the dinner table where the food was all laid out and my mom said prayer before we dug in.
"Mom, since its memorial Day weekend and we get Friday and Monday off can I please go to Ohio and see all my old friends, PLEASE!!" Nicole asked her mother.
"No." Paula said while taking another bite ready to ignore Nicole but she kept going.
"Pleases mom, I'll stay with Kristy, and I already saved up the money for the plane. Please mom, please," Nicole said again this time giving mom a pout.
"Fine but you better me home by Monday," Paula said giving in and Nicole running around the table to give mom a big hug and thank you. We ate and then me and Ashley went back to my room and we fell asleep in each others arms.
I dreamt of Hailey again that night and this one was the worse because I had to choose between Hailey and Ashley and I love them both. I haven't told Ashley I think I'm falling for her yet because it's only been about a two weeks since we made it official. She makes me feel what other people haven't which is that I feel wanted and loved, not saying I didn't feel that with Hailey but it just happens to be more with Ashley. When ever I am with her I have a smile on my face because she puts it there. But I'm glad people at school, besides Erica and Madison, approve and is happy for mine and Ashley's relationship I just hope I can get over this Hailey thing soon.
