"Hello? Spencer?"
"No. It's Holly."
Ashley knew only one Holly. Her ex-girlfriend. Her voice hit her like a baseball bat, and the memories started intruding her brain. Her eyes swelled up and she was trying hard to stop the tears from falling, but it didn't work. She had a clear image of Holly in her mind. She could never forget her. Crazy pink hair. Fauxhawk. Tiny. Cute. Beautiful. Sleepovers, picnics, and playing music at the park. Holly was Ashley's best friend. Holly was her bad before she found three other guys to play with. Most of all, Holly was Ashley's first love. A swirl of emotions hit Ashley. She was more than happy to hear from her. She missed her. She was angry that she didn't call her over two years. She was mad that holly broke up with her.
Holly had to break it off with Ashley because she was moving to New York. There was no way the relationship could work as much as she wanted it to. They were in complete opposite sides of the country, and Holly was most certain that she would never see Ashley until they were seniors in high school. That's why Holly worked her ass off eight hours a day during the summer of junior year. Just to buy a plane ticket to see Ashley again.
"Ashley? Ashley?"
The brunette's voice cracked. "Uh. Yeah?"
"Well do you think you could open the door for me?"
"What?"
" The door. D-O-O-R. That big block of wood that has a knob and blocks the—"
"I know what a door is, you moron. But why do I have to open it?"
"You could use a better choice of words, Ash. You could stop calling me moron and start calling me by… oh, I don't know, MY NAME!"
The brunette smirked into the phone. "You still didn't answer my question."
"Well you didn't call me by my name."
Frustrated, Ashley got up from her room and went to open the door. A petite, pink-haired girl dressed in a green tee, faded jeans, and aviators smiled. The instant Ashley opened the door, she knew that it was Holly. Without thinking twice, Ashley ran to Holly and hugged her as hard as she could. Ash let go and gave her a kiss on the forehead.
" I see you kept the hair, miss Holly Matinez."
"And I see your still the same, Davies. Can we go in? I want to see your mom."
"What is it with you and my mom?"
"Dude, she's hot."
"That's just plain gross."
"If you were me, you'd think your mom was hot, too."
"Thankfully, I'm not you."
Holly playfully shoved Ashley to the wall. "Hey mom. Guess who's here."
A tall, blonde, hazel-eyed woman came to the hallway. "Oh my god! Holly, is that you? I haven't seen you in forever!"
The mother came up to the young girl and gave her a kiss on the cheek. Immediately, Holly started to blush.
"Well, I have to get back to work. It was nice seeing you Holly!"
"Bye Mrs. Davies." Holly had a wide smile on her face. Ashley pointed to the floor.
"You know your gonna have to clean up that puddle of drool sooner or later."
Holly exclaimed, "It's not my fault that you mom is so hot!"
Ashley's mother's voice came through the door. "Thank you, Holly!"
Ashley burst into laughter while Holly's cheeks turned into a shade of crimson red.
"Shut up! It wasn't that funny!"
"It kinda was. Come on, I'll show you my room."
The first thing that grabbed Holly's attention was the pictures of her and Ashley holding hands. Then she noticed the black acoustic guitar.
"You still have these pictures? And this guitar?!"
"Those are good pictures. And it's a good guitar."
Holly plopped down on the bed and strummed on the guitar. "So who's this Spencer girl?"
"Definitely not my girlfriend. But I really like her."
"Ask her out!"
"It's not that easy. And I already… You know what? It's really complicated. Enough about me. How's your love life?"
Holly grinned, "It's awesome!"
"So you found yourself a ladyfriend?"
"Yup."
"Is she cute?"
"Of course she's cute! Why would I date someone I don't find attractive?"
Ashley shrugged, "I don't know. You make really weird choices when it comes to chicks."
"I do not! I went out with you!"
"Well I'm the only exception to the list of weird girls you slept with. The girls are always really cute, but they have some strange thing about them.
"They are not!"
"are too."
"are not!"
"are too."
"This conversation can go on forever. I know for a fact that the girls I date are definitely NOT weird."
Ashley giggled, "Who said they were?"
"YOU'VE BEEN SAYING THEY WERE WEIRD FOR THE LAST TEN MINUTES!"
Ashley laughed even harder making Holly laugh as well. "You really do have an off sense of humor."
"It's what I'm known for."
Holly took out her cellphone from the back pocket of her jeans. It read 9:30.
"SHITT. I was supposed to be at the hotel by 9."
"Why?"
"Dinner. Mom and dad and some relatives."
She headed out the door while Ashley followed.
"You need a ride?"
"No, the place is right around the corner."
"Then I'll come with!"
"Fine with me."
Holly led the way to a brightly lit building. The parking lot was jammed with cars.
Good thing I didn't bring the car…
The tiny girl faced Ashley. "This might be the last time you might see me. Got anything to say?"
Ashley looked down to the ground and smiled. This was one thing she loved about Holly. She was always so upfront and honest about things.
I think I got it from her.
The brunette searched around the parking lot to make sure no one else was there. She then reached for Holly's hand, intertwined fingers with her own, and faced her.
"Um. I want you to know that I'll always love you. No matter what. And that you'll always have a place in my heart. I missed you soooooooooooooo much. Come visit me again, okay?"
Holly draped her arms over Ashley's shoulders and gave her a quick peck on the lips, and started heading toward the hotel.
"I love you too. And get that Spencer girl before someone else does."
"I will."
"Call me sometime."
"I will."
"I'll see you tomorrow, Ash!"
"I will— wait. What?!"
Holly chuckled and went inside the hotel. She waved bye to Ashley. She smiled uncontrollably.
That girl's crazy. Now what do I do about Spencer? I haven't talked to her in three days…
