Chapter 4

Spencer's POV

I'm on my way to my room when I see a light so I follow it. I get to a door that I have not noticed before and walk in and find Ashley lying on the floor in front of a pile of textbooks. I guess she heard me walk in because she is startled.

"Sorry I just saw the light and was curious." I start to walk out but I hear her stand up.

"No it's alright I have a test tomorrow in calculus and I'm trying to cram as much as I can." She smiles then I take a sit on the couch.

"I could help you if you want. I'm pretty good at Calculus." I grab her book and look at her work.

"It's horrible right. I swear I need to tattoo the equations on my skin so I can remember them." She is staring at me I assume waiting for an answer.

"You only got one wrong." I set the book down on the coffee table and stand up. "You don't give yourself enough credit Ash." I look up and she is smiling wider than I had seen before.

"Ash?" Oh I think I offended her.

"Oh um…I'm sorry…I didn't…" I hand Ashley her pencil.

"Its fine I like it but only you can call me that." She smiles at me.

"Um I should head to bed. Good night Ashley." I walk out of the room without looking back.

Ashley's POV

Spencer leaves the room and I gather up my books and turn out the light before heading to my room. She is actually pretty cool. I hear my cell phone ring and answer it.

"Hello?"

"Where are you girl? You were supposed to be here like thirty minutes ago."

I totally forgot about Brad. I tell him I'll start heading out and then hang up. After getting dressed I head out of my room and bump into Spencer.

"Oh I'm sorry Ashley…Are you going out?"

"Yeah, do you want to come with me?" I watch as she fiddles with her hands.

"No I'm going to call it a night, just needed to use the bathroom." With that she disappeared into her room and I left for the club.

Spencer's POV

I woke up after hearing a crash in the hall so I get up and walk out into the hall. As soon as I open the door I see Ashley fumbling around with some girl with curly red hair.

"Spencerrrrrrrrr, This is uh….What's your name?" Ashley gets up from the floor and leans against the wall smiling at me.

"It's Stacy." She finally answers after a long awkward silence. "Now show me your room Ashley."

"Ashley you should really get some sleep you have a calculus test in the morning. I'm sorry Stacy but you should go."

"Whoa whoa whoa. She can't leave plus this isn't your house anyways Blondie." She takes Stacy's hand. Without a word I walk back into my room and crawl back in bed after all this isn't my house. I drift back to sleep.

"You were great out there Spencer, Your mother and I are so proud of you." I smiled at my parents as we sat down at the dinner table after one of my soccer games.

"Thanks dad, Coach Lowe said that next game there will be like ten scouts."

I wake up and hit the snooze button. Ever since I got out of the hospital I've been having the same dream. I still can't remember the rest of that night. Just dinner then waking up in the hospital and the doctor saying that my parents were dead.

After my shower I walk into the kitchen and sit at the bar with a bottle of water and a apple. Ashley is sitting with her head lying on the table.

"Good Morning." She lifts her head and cringes.

"Huh…I have the worst hangover in the history of all hangovers." She slides her arm up to keep her head from touching the table.

"How's Stacy?" I sip my water and take a seat at the table with her.

"Who…Oh did we wake you last night?" She sits up in her chair and makes eye contact with me.

"Yeah, you don't remember last night?" I'm not much of a drinker or a party person. I just like to hang out with friends and watch movies.

"Not really. I'm sorry though for waking you up."

"It's fine. We should go you have that test in Calculus." I get up from the table and walk out of the kitchen.
