Chapter 22
Spencer barged into the apartment throwing her bag on the floor and heading straight to the fridge to get a beer. She was distracted by noises coming from the sofa so she slowly crept over holding her bottle of corona as a weapon. Spencer jumped out f her skin as Aiden popped up from the sofa holding a pillow over his manhood which caused Spencer to scream and drop her weapon.
"What the hell Aiden?"
"Spence what are you doing home?"
"I live here last time I checked" Spencer responded trying to avoid looking at her butt naked friend.
"I thought you were working until later?"Aiden asked.
"I couldn't deal with Ashley so I left and figured that I would just work from home until my two weeks noticed are up"
"So you handed in your notice then?" Aiden asked trying to act natural. Spencer couldn't help be still distracted by her naked friend and didn't want to continue the conversation.
"Sorry Aiden I have to ask about the nudity thing....well why are you naked in the living room?"
"No reason" Aiden responded in a very unconvinving tone.
"Euw were you?..actually don't answer" Spencer begged as she backed away assuming that Aiden was having some "alone" time.
"Spence I only do that..nevermind..it's not that" Before Aiden could finish Kyla popped her head from behind the sofa causing Spencer to jump again.
"Kyla...what the hell?"
"Hey Spence...this is a little weird" Kyla responded with an embarrased smile.
"I'm going to my room to listen music..very loud music" Spencer announced as she backed out of the room.
As she went into her room to try and get rid of the memory that was now burnt into her brain her phone started to ring. Spencer checked the i.d and saw that it was Ashley so she went on auto pilot and cancelled the call only for the phone to ring again. After about 5 minutes of non stop calls there as a knock at Spencer's door.
"Come in" Spencer yelled as Aiden walked in.
"Sorry about that Carlin. I thought that you may have stuck around and talked to Ashley a bit longer"
"She talked, I ignored and then I left"
"What did she say?"
"That I had the wrong idea and that she loved me"
"Woah woah back up lil Spence did you say that she said that she loves you?"
"Yep...she was trying to fuck somebody else not that long ago and now she loves me...it's a load of crap"
"What did she say when you handed in your notice?"
"Not much just the love thing"
"You don't seem to care that somebody that you really liked told you they love you"
"Liked being the operative word there Aiden. I used to like her and now I don't...in fact I think I hate her a little bit"
"Spence you don't hate her and I know that you don't"
"Did Kyla tell you to say that?"
"That's a low blow and no she didn't but she did tell me that Ashley has been heartbroken since Mexico and all she does is sit around mopping"
"Good"
"Just talk to her and listne to her"
"Look Aiden this isn't going to happen and to be fair it wasn't like we were a real couple"
"Looked real to me Spence and the way you're reacting is real because you have real feelings for Ashley no matter how much you deny it or how hard you fight it"
"You're wrong"
"You're stubborn and you're pushing her away"
"So?"
"So stop it and just talk to her before you lose her"
"Aiden I never had her to lose....she was a part of my life for a little bit but girl's like Ashley and Colby are never really anybodies to keep. They have people and they leave people because they can"
"Ashley and Colby are not the same people Spence. The quicker you realise that the better because otherwise you will be alone. You don't deserve that Spence...you should have somebody that loves you rather than having these girl's that mean nothing to you"
"Those girl's don't hurt"
"Would rather just feel nothing?"
"I don't know"
"Get up and come with me" Aiden demanded as he grabbed Spencer by her hand pulling her out of the apartment. For once in her life Spencer just shut up and let Aiden do his thing even though she had no idea what he was doing or where he was taking her. They eventually pulled up outside of a bar that Spencer didn't recognise but she did recognise the porche sat in the car park which caused her to lock the doors as Aiden climbed out.
"Spencer I have the keys you moron so just get out or I will carry your stupid ass" Aiden yelled through the window which didn't even cause Spencer to flinch.
"Aiden I am not going in there...I know she's in there" Spencer yelled back through the glass. Aiden didn't respond he just opened the door and threw Spencer over his shoulder much to her dispair. Not matter how much she wriggled and yelled Aiden didn't budge. He was a well built guy and he spent a lot of time at the gym so it made sense to Spencer that he was stupidly strong. Aiden made his way into the bar that was quite quiet and then took Spencer towards a booth dumping her on the chair in front of Kyla which was a pleasant surprise for Spencer.
"Hey Spence...how you doing?"
"A little bit annoyed and in the market for a new best friend as my old one is going to jail for manhandling me"
"Desperate times and desperate measures" Aiden replied smiling at his friend and giving a wink to Kyla which didn't go un noticed by Spencer.
"Why am I here?" Spencer asked as she took a sip of Kyla's drink.
"I wanted to talk you" Kyla explained taking back her drink.
"Look Ky I know that Ashley is your sister and you're just looking out for her but there will be nothing that you can say that will change my mind about what's happened"
"Spence I get that she hurt you and she can be a complete waste of space but she really cares about you. My sister is my best friend and I know that she didn't mean to hurt you and I trust her when she says that she didn't do anything with that chick"
"You didn't see what I saw" Spencer replied trying to push the memory of Ashley getting intimate with the pool slut.
"Fair enough but you also didn't see Ashley tell that girl that she loved you and you haven't seen her hiding out in her house completely heartbroken. The only reason she left the house today was so that she could see you"
Aiden could tell that this wasn't working so he took Kyla's hand and pulled her away so that they could talk.
"Just tell her what Ashley saw"
"No"
"Why not Kyla?"
"Because she should want to talk to Ashley"
"I'm telling you that she does otherwise there is no way that I would've been able to get her little ass in here. She my have been struggling but if she didn't want to be here then she wouldn't be...trust me"
While Aiden and Kyla were having their discussion they neglected to notice that Spencer had left. She had gone out to the front of the bar to get some air and to clear her head from the constant nagging. She knew that Kyla and Aiden were trying to do the right thing but she couldn't help but hate the fact that it was those two doing the leg work when all Ashley did was make a few phone calls. Spencer had always being the one to do the chasing in relationships and she was always the one to make the effort but after Colby she didn't want to be that push over especially after hooking up with her the other week. As Spencer walked aimlessly through the car park she found herself next to Ashley's porche wondering where Ashley actually was. Knowing that the alarm wasn't on she climbed on to the hood of the car reclining against the window so that she was looking up at the stars.
"Is there a reason you're sat on my car?" Asked a voice from the otherside of the car.
"Nope..I'll move,sorry" Spencer replied as she made eye contact with Ashley.
"I'll make you a deal"
"Ok"
"I'll let you sit on my car if you actually sit there long enough to talk to me" Ashley offered as she slowly edged closer to the car as if not scare Spencer away again.
"Deal"
"Those two suck at helping out by the way"
"I figured there was some sort of master plan...how wrong did it go?"
"They were supposed to convince you that I was actually not that bad or if that failed just keep you in the club long enough"
"Long enough for what?"
"For me to get on stage and sing to you"
"No offence but do you really think that singing to me would've worked?" Spencer asked in a cynical voice as her heart melted a little bit more on the inside. It made her smile on the inside knowing that Ashley had actually made some effort to get back on her goodside.
"Guess we'll never know" Ashley answered disheartened as she kicked a stone across the car park.
"Wow you give up really easily Davies...thought you were feisty" Spencer jabbed with a slight smile on her face. Ashley turned to look at Spencer but didn't reply instead she grabbed her guitar case from the car and put it around her. Ashley started strumming the guitar playing a soft melody while giving Spencer a smug smile that melted her heart a little bit more.
I
can be an asshole of the grandest kind
I can withhold like it's
going out of style
I can be the moodiest baby and you've never met
anyone
Who is as negative as I am sometimes
I am the wisest
woman you've ever met.
I am the kindest soul with whom you've
connected.
I have the bravest heart that you've ever seen
And
you've never met anyone
Who's as positive as I am sometimes.
You
see everything, you see every part
You see all my light and you
love my dark
You dig everything of which I'm ashamed
There's
not anything to which you can't relate
And you're still here
I
blame everyone else, not my own partaking
My
passive-aggressiveness can be devastating
I'm terrified and
mistrusting
And you've never met anyone as,
As closed down as I
am sometimes.
You see everything, you see every part
You
see all my light and you love my dark
You dig everything of which
I'm ashamed
There's not anything to which you can't relate
And
you're still here
What I resist, persists, and speaks louder
than I know
What I resist, you love, no matter how low or high I
go
I'm the funniest woman that you've ever known
I'm the
dullest woman that you've ever known
I'm the most gorgeous woman
that you've ever known
And you've never met anyone
Who is as
everything as I am sometimes
You see everything (you see
everything), you see every part (you see every part )
You see all
my light (you see all my light) and you love my dark (and you love my
dark )
You dig everything (you dig everything) of which I'm
ashamed (of which I'm ashamed)
There's not anything (there's not
anything) to which you can't relate (to which you can't relate)
And
you're still here
(You see everything, you see every part)
And
you're still here
(You see all my light and you love my dark)
And
you're still here
(You dig everything of which I'm
ashamed)
(There's not anything to which you can't relate)
And
you're still here...
Ashley played the last few chords hoping that the song had worked or at least kind of worked because she was completely out of ideas if this failed. Ashley had written this song on the way back from Mexico hoping that it would make her feel better but it just made her feel worse because it pointed out all her flaws. One of her many flaws becoming more prominant the longer that Spencer just said nothing, the longer th blonde just sat there the more Ashley was convinced that she was a terrible singer and an even worse song writer. Ashley was becoming increasingly uncomfortable until she saw a huge smile spread across Spencer's face as she climbed off the car hood. Spencer took the guitar from around Ashley and placed back in it's case. Leaning into Ashley so close that Spencer could just about see the hairs on her neck stand up as she whispered in her ear "I think I just fell in love with you Ashley Davies". Ashley didn't waste anytime taking what she thought she had lost forever. She pulled Spencer in and kissed her with every ounce of passion she had in her, with every drop of regret she had for almost ruining this, with every part of her that knew she loved this perfect girl in front of her.
