Hello, here I am again. How have you been?

I hope you like this update. It took awhile for me to figure out how to word this. I hope I did it justice.

Enjoy

Ok, I've waited long enough. It's only been a week but still, that's a week too long.

I get out my phone and pull up Spencer's number, I wait a minute then just decide to send her a text. "Hi." that's simple right? I mean it's not asking too much. hopefully she responds.

It has been about 4 hrs since I sent that text to Spencer. I've checked my phone every other minuet and finally she texted me back. It said "Hi." Then a second text comes up, "can we meet tonight?" I KNOW im surprised too! I of course said yes, we decided to meet at the pier. She asked me not to tell anybody because she didn't want to get bombarded, so I agreed. I told her I was there for whatever she needed.

So around 8:00 I start to drive to the pier. I havent heard from Spencer all day, I hope she didn't decide to back out. If she did at least I know she will talk to me now. I just hope Carmen didn't catch her.

I pull up, and I see Spencer with her hood on looking over the pier into the water.

ok this is it.

Deep breath.

Lets go.

I get out of the car and head towards her. I get closer and hear her say " I didn't think you were going to come."

Wait. Thats not Spencer.

Carmen turns around with a smug look on her face. What a little bitch. I can't believe she did that. Ugh, I really did not want to fight tonight.

"Carmen, Why didnt this cross my mind?" she laughs, "Because you are a stupid little bitch." One. That doesn't even make sense, and two. HEY! I am not a bitch! I mean, yeah I am to her, but she deserved it! For being a possessive whore, and punching me in the face!

"Ok, then that settles it." I say and turn around to leave.

She rushes up and grabs my arm "Hey! I did not do all this so you could just walk away." she says. She pushes me back and starts to yell. "See the whole reason you are here is because for some god forsaken reason you got into my girlfriends head."

haha damn right I did. Oh yeah. ha...I probably shouldn't be tooting my own horn right now. She looks mad. "And I just wanted to get you alone, so I could tell you to stay the hell away from her. That whatever you are trying to do, it isn't going to work. Cant you see that already?"

"What are you going to do? Make me stop hanging around her? oh wait! I'm not your girlfriend, you can't control me, Carmen." annnnnd she hit me.

Again.

Maybe I shouldn't of said that. But god damn it does she piss me off. Oh and there she goes kicking me in the stomach. Holy hell does that hurt.

"No. I'm going to do that, but if you keep trying to talk to Spencer then this is going to hurt a lot more."

ugh.

that's all I can say right now. I knew she was psycho, but shit dude! Who does this! We aren't in some movie.

I go to get up, and she tries to push me back down. I use all my strength to push her away, and hurry to get into my car. I finally get my car started and drive away. I really need to get Spencer away from her.

Madison wasn't up when I got home so I took a shower and went to bed.

I'm pretty banged up.

There isn't enough makeup to cover this eye up in the morning. Madison is going to freak.

I get up the next morning and at least try to cover this thing up, So it wont look that bad. Puffy eye isn't really my color...or something like that.

Idk, but I look like shit.

I walk into the kitchen trying to be as quiet as possi.. "OH MY GOD! WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED!" Ok that was a bust. Shes already awake. Shit. She runs up to me and touches my eye, which by the way, OW. "ow," I say and step back. "Watch it man hands that hurts!" I put my hand up to my eye and walk around her to get to the fridge. I open it to see if I can find something cold to put on my eye. I can tell Madison is still in the same spot just looking at me. Probably with her hands on her hips with an annoyed look on her face.

I grab a bag of peas from the freezer and go to sit down. Oh, and there she is just like I said. so predictable. "Would you believe me if I said I fell into a door?" I say. she gives me this weird look "Holy shit Ashley, are you seeing that bitch again! If you are I swear to god I will beat your ass!"

"NO!" I say quickly. "no,no, a world fo no." why did I just sound like Buffy? Not the point. "I havent talked to her for god knows how long. Jeeze do you really think I would go back to her?"

"I...I don't know what to think Ashley." she sighs "what happened?"

I tell her the story and the whole time she has this stunned look on her face. "And then I drove home. that's it." She keeps shaking her head "Does she think she's in a movie or something! who does that. that's fucked up. We have to tell Kyla and get Spencer away from Carmen pronto."

haha she said pronto. "I agree but we should have her over, because if we tell her when she is in the house with Carmen I don't know what she would do."
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

ok. Makeup on eye, bangs in face, hat, I think Im ready to go. I turn to leave my room and GOD DAMN IT. there are a pair of sunglasses on my dresser.

SUNGLASSES!

why didn't I think of that. Fuck it, this shit took me an hour.

I walk down stairs to where Kyla and Madison are waiting for me.

"Took you long enough, now why am I here, and why are you guys acting all weird?" Kyla says. So we figure that I should ease Kyla into this, hence the makeup. I was too occupied with that tho so I kinda forgot to figure out how to go about the telling her thing.

"Well, um..." startin strong! Kyla gives me a weird look.

"Why are you turned all weird? You look like a retarded emo." wow.

"Thanks kyla, jesus." I look at Madison, hoping she sees Im having trouble with this.

she nods, "So, What if I told you Ashley saw Carmen last night?" I don't know if she knows what 'ease' means.

Kyla's eyes go huge "What do you mean? Like she saw her in passing or on purpose? Oh my god are you sleeping with her!?"

"WHAT!? ew Kyla. jez thats where you go with that...god. what the hell?"

"What happened!?"

"Well." I say. looking to Madison then back to Kyla. Uum." I really don't know what to say.

Madison walks over to me, grabs a napkin off the counter, and wipes the makeup off my eye.

I hold my breath waiting for Kyla's reaction. Her eyes go wide then she kinda just...goes still.

she's not moving.

Like a statue. "ok." ok. that's all she has to say. ok. I got punched in the face!

she turns and goes to grab her keys. but not before I really get a good look at her.

I know that look.

Those are crazy eyes.

"MADISON STOP HER" I yell. Without thinking she jumps at her and grabs her by the shoulders.

Madison with really wide eyes looks at me "What do I do!" Kyla is just looking at her with her head tilted to the side, and a little smile on her face.

I'm really freaked right now.

I run up behind kyla and grab her keys.

this is what gets her moving.

Her head swings around like a fucking owl and now she's after me.

With the girliest scream ever, I run to the bathroom and lock myself inside. In seconds Kyla is banging on the bathroom door.

"Ashley! Give me my keys right now! I'm going to go kick that bitches ass, but not before I kick yours for stealing my fucking keys!"

haha holy shit. I don't know if I'm laughing because Kyla never cusses or because I'm scared out of my mind.

All the sudden I hear Madison yell "Ashley she is going to turn on meeee!" I smile because Madison really has never had the opportunity to actually be over the top. she just does it when she doesn't need too. "I'm going to distract her on the count of three and you better let me in!"

I hear a one, two, three, and then a thump. the pounding stops and the screaming stops. I am at the door and right as I unlock it Madison pushes her way in. She goes to lock the door behind her and I hear, "What the hell, Madison!"

I look at her with wide eyes, "What did you do?" she looks at me and out of breath says "I grabbed her legs and pulled her as far back as I could...I think she may have hit her head on something." I shake my head and walk to the door.

"Are you ok, Kyla?" She huffs and I think she sits against the door.

"Just give me my keys Ashley." She sounds defeated. at least she is calmed down.

"Listen Kyla, I told you this because I thought you should know, and I also thought you'd be the one who had the level head about it."

"Shes with my sister right now Ashley! Why wouldn't I act like this?" she says.

I open the door and she stands up. I look at her "She hurt me because she thinks I am a threat to her and spencer. Shes not going to hurt her, not when she thinks there is someone out there who could take Spencer away from her." I take a step towards her and hand over the keys. "She is probably being extra nice to her now because of what she did to me. she knows its going to get back to her, so I need you to sit down, take a deep breath and let's try to not make this worse."

"ok, fine. Then what do we do?" Kyla sighs.

"KIDNAP HER!" God Madison.

I give her an eye roll "Noo," I say "I think we should just go over there. We can walk in and just tell her straight up what happened. I dont know how else to do it."

"It might be the only way to get through to her" Madison says. "We can go in and let Ashley talk while we make sure Carmen doesn't do anything stupid."

kyla nods

"well.. lets do this."
