Chapter 17:
Alright guys here you go my longest chapter yet. I would like to thank the reviewers, you are why this chapter is up so fast.
"Spencer come sit down. Your best friend is here to support you. Glen brought her home from school today, I didn't even have to ask. she said that she thought you could use some one to talk to" my mother said.
I stood there wide eyed with my mouth hanging open. I could feel my head start to get light and I started to feel dizzy. The last thing I heard were my dad and Ashley asking if I was alright.
Then it all went black.
Ashley's POV
I was absolutely terrified walking into the Carlin household but I couldn't let Spencer know that. I held her hand tight and walked in with her. I knew that no matter what it was not going to end the way Spencer wanted it to.
We walked into the living room and I immediately saw Madison sitting there with a smirk on her face. I squeezed Spencer's hand a little bit tighter in hopes that it would calm her nerves. I knew that Paula was talking but all I could hear was my heart rapidly beating.
Then I felt Spencer's hand start to go weak in mine. I turned to look at her.
"Are you alright" I asked simultaneously with . I saw Spencer's eyes start to close and she started to fall backwards. I immediately jumped behind her and threw her arms around waist, catching her before she hit the ground.
As soon as I caught her, I sat down and guided her head into my lap. I began to stroke her hair. I knew that she would wake up and second. The poor girl had been so stressed out that she literally passed out.
As I continued to stroke her hair, I looked up to see 4 pairs of eyes staring back at me. Mr.C had an endearing smile on his face while Paula was scowling at me. I could tell that everyone was kind of shocked that I was able to catch Spencer before she hit the ground. I thought for a second about how Spencer had told me that her mother was a doctor. I mean really, her daughter just passed out cold and she was just scowling at me.
I saw Madison smirking at me and Glen was looking regretful and guilty. I looked down at Spencer and saw that her eyes were starting to flutter open.
"Ashley" Spencer said in a hoarse voice.
"Baby I'm right here. Are you okay?" I said leaning down closer to her face.
"What, what happened to me" she asked. I could tell that she couldn't exactly remember where we were or why we were here.
"You blacked out sweetie. You were only out for a second. Do you think that you could stand up?" I asked. She nodded and started to sit up. I stood up and reached my hands out to help her. Once she was standing I placed and arm around her waist. I knew that she was still probably dizzy and I didn't want her pass out again.
She looked over at me and gave me a small smile. I smiled back at her and she kissed me on the lips. I pulled back and leaned my forehead on hers before giving her one more quick peck on the lips.
We turned back to her family and waited for some one to speak.
Spencer's POV
My head was pounding and I couldn't see straight. I wasn't sure if that was because of me passing out or the kiss with Ashley. We were staring back at my family and I took a deep breath.
"Alright Spencer I will have no more of your bullshit. No more kissing that dyke or pretending to pass out" my mother said. I stood there with my mouth agape, had my mother just accused me of pretending to pass out. I looked over at Ashley and saw that she was wearing the same expression as mine.
"I have explained to your father that I will gladly allow you to move back into the house on one condition. You have to agree to stop pretending to be gay. I mean I just can't have a lesbian running around my house. I am a Catholic and it is my duty to make sure that my children go to heaven. Think about poor Madison, I mean think about how terrible it would be to have your best friend be a lesbian."
I stood there at a loss for words. I saw my dad was wearing a frown and was now glaring at my mother. Madison looked as proud as could be. I mean even 2 years later, she was still making my life an absolute living hell.
I snapped, I knew that I had to say something. It was now or never.
"You know what mom you're right" I said and I could see Ashley was looking confused.
"I mean poor Madison. I came out to her 2 years ago and she proceeded to tell the entire school that I was gay. That must of been so hard for her. Oh and poor Glen, having to watch his sister get beat up very day and not do anything about it. Last of all you, who when you found out I was gay, slapped me and punched my girlfriend in the gut. So you know what, I am sorry, I am sorry for making your life so fucking hard."
I took a deep breath and looked around at the faces of the people in front of me. Everyone had looks of guilt plastered on their face except for my mother who had no emotion what so ever.
Glen looked the worst, clearly my dad had not known that Glen was a bystander. I was about to say something else when Madison stood up.
Oh here we go again. Honestly what could this bitch want. I mean I was so done with her like she needs to move the fuck on. This is getting old.
"Spencer, it really hurts me that you think I would do something like that to you. I just want you to get better. I mean your'e sick and we are all here to help you get better." I couldn't help it I started laughing. I mean really, I'm sick was the best that she could come up with.
As I was laughing I heard some one mumble "fuck off". I immediately looked over at Ashley who nodded over to my brother.
Glen was sitting there just shaking his head and looking at the ground. I was actually kind of amazed that he was taking my side over his girlfriend.
"Madison I am tired of this we are through" with that he walked upstairs. He left us all i the living room staring at Madison who had a blank look on her face.
Well that wasn't as much as I was hoping Glen would do. I mean I kind of expected him to come swooping in and save me from our evil homophobic mother.
Madison grabbed her purse and swiftly walked out of the living room. On her way out, she made sure to bump into me just enough so that I stumbled backwards. Lucking I had my knight in shining armor behind me to catch me.
Madison turned around and gave me a fake apologetic look.
"Whoops, sorry" she said as she was walking to the front door. I could feel ashley seething next to me. I still did not know what was said between them this morning before school started.
"Hey fuckface" I heard Ashley yell from right next to me.
I saw Madison stop in her place and turn around to face Ashley and I. She looked at me and then turned to look at Ashley. I saw her visibly gulp when she looked at Ashley.
I mean I know that Ashley could be intimidating but, she wasn't that scary.
"You may want to tell your family to hire a good lawyer" Ashley calmly said to her while she was laughing.
I saw all the color drain from Madison's face as she briskly walked out the front door. I turned to Ashley and saw that she was wearing a wicked smile on her face, telling me that she knew exactly how to hit Madison where it hurt.
"Are you fucking kidding me" I heard being yelled from the living room. I quickly turned around to see my father screaming at my mother who was still sitting on the couch. She was still wearing this smirk on her face.
My father was not the type of man that you would often see yelling. He was the kind and gentle soul of the family, so when he was yelling, you knew it was bad.
"How could you let this happen Paula. How could you let our daughter go to school every morning and be abused and not do anything to stop it. How could you slap our daughter and punch her innocent girlfriend in the gut. Do you not realize that is child harassment. I can't even deal with you right now Paula." With that my dad got up and left the house. That left me, my mother and Ashley all standing in the living room.
Well this is awkward. About 30 seconds had gone by and no one was saying anything. There was a big gay elephant in the room.
There was nothing left to be said to her. I grabbed Ashley's hand and walked out of the room. I marched straight up the stairs into Glen's room without letting go of her hand.
I yanked the door open and saw him sitting at his desk on his computer. He looked like a completely normal teenage boy. That was what bothered me the most was that he could go back to living a normal life. He didn't have to deal with the aftermath of that conversation. He could go on and live his life like nothing had ever happened.
"I really hoped you would pull through for me today. After everything you and your girlfriend have put me through, you couldn't just do this for me."
I left him there staring at me and Ashley and slammed the door. After everything we had been through, I just wanted to go home and snuggle up with my girlfriend.
"Let's go home" she said as she pulled me to her car. I didn't even bother saying good-bye to my mother.
Once we got in the car Ashley gave me a peck on the lips and we left the place that I had known as home.
Drama Drama Drama! Give me your thoughts! The more reviews I get the more likely I am to post another chapter this week.
