Chapter 15

Ashley

I had just finished bringing Riley to her bed, just like I thought she passed out. I walked back into the living room where I found Spencer still watching the movie. I walked over turning it off, taking a seat next to her. It didn't even faze her. She turned towards me, and gave me a small smile.

"Whats going on Spence?"

"What do you mean?"

"Just the other day you didn't want anything to do with me, now you are holding my hand and almost kissing me" She looked down at my hand, and started to play with my wedding ring.

"I'm tired Ash, I am emotionally exhausted. I just want to be happy. I want to feel safe. You are the one that seems to give me that feeling of rest" I nodded.

"Spencer we can't..." she nodded, and took away her hand.

"I know we can't, and that's what so fucked up" She spoke with anger in her voice. "You are my fucking wife, and I can't just be with you"

"Spencer we both want this, but so much has happen. You just got out of a relationship" She got up from her seat.

"Don't you think I know that Ashley!" I followed her to the kitchen, reaching for her arm.

"Spence, stop. I get your angry, but maybe that why we need a good talk" She pulled her arm away, and leaned against the counter.

"I'm done fucking talking. I just want a normal life. I want my wife home, and my child to be healthy. I want to go to work everyday with a smile on my face."

"Do you not like you job anymore?"

"Did I say that?" I took a step back, running my hand through my hair.

"I think I am going to go"

"Sure why not, its what your good at" I stopped, and turned around to face Spencer. This Spencer was full of anger and resentment.

"Fuck you Spencer, you know I didn't do anything! I loved you, and still fucking love you! I want this Spencer more then anything. I just can't take this Bi polar attitude shit from you!" I reached for my jacket.

"Why did you have to come home?" I looked at Spencer, she now had tears in her eyes.

"I came home for you, and for Riley"

"Why can't we talk without fighting?" I walked back over taking her face in my hands, I swiped her tears with my thumbs.

"You still hate me for what I did, and that's understanding. I want you back Spence, but you need to be willing to let go of the past." She looked at me.

"I'm trying Ash, why can't I just let you in. I want us so bad."

"T hats something you need to figure out, until then I will always be here for you" I kissed her forehead, wrapping my arms around her.

"Can you stay Ash, please?" I nodded.

Spencer pulled back from me, taking my hand leading me towards her bedroom. Once inside she closed the door, as I took off my jacket. I walked over to the bed, it was our old bed. The one we spent hours trying to decide on, and the one we made love on many nights. I felt her hands pull on my shirt, I turned for her to take it off. I reached for hers doing the same, the next thing to go was our pants. We stood thee in just our bra and underwear. I let her get into bed first, while I turned off the lights. When I got back to the bed Spencer was now naked, I smiled taking the rest of my clothes off. I climbed in next to her, wrapping her arms around Spencer.

"I love you Ash, goodnight"

"I love you too baby, goodnight"
