CHAPTER 20
Spencer was speechless for probably the second time in her life, the first time been when she and Ashley first kissed. She wanted to run to Ashley and kiss her and make things ok between them but also she still had the image of Ashley and Aiden burnt into her eyelids. Ashley climbed off the car and slowly made her way towards Spencer.
"You don't have to say anything or even forgive me but I just had to get your attention so that I can explain"
"Ok you've got my attention"
"There is nothing between me and Aiden I promise you and I would never do that to Kyla. He kissed me and I reacted slowly because I was shocked and didn't know what to do. I know you don't know me that well and I pissed you off before at the beach but please believe me when I say that I want you...I want you Spencer not anybody else and certainly not my sister's boyfriend. I think you could be it for me"
Spencer had definately lost the power of speech and felt a little bit retarded for not having an answer but she didn't know how to take what Ashley had just said. Spencer could see by Ashley's expression that she was waiting for some sort of response.
"Spencer say something pelase"
"I don't know what to say Ashley"
"Ok you don't have to say anything Spence, just believe what I just told you and if you don't then I'm going to remind you every day until you do because I'm not giving up on you" Ashley whispered into to Spencer's ear as she handed her a single daisy. Spencer watched as Ashley walked back to her and drove off.
"Well if you don't believe her I certainly fucking do" Jamie laughed from behind Spencer.
"How long have you been stood there?"
"Long enough to know that you should've just grabbed her and kissed her instead of turning into a mime act" Jamie joked.
"It's not that easy Jamie"
"Colour me stupid but I think it is that easy when you like somebody and they like you. It's obvious that she isn't interested in anybody but you so stop pushing her away"
"I'm not pushing her a way!I didn' make her kiss Aiden, I didn't make her stop kissing me, I didn't make her kiss me at Reading and then leave...all of those things were her fault not mine" Spencer finally snapped and it felt good to let all the frustration out even if it was directed at the wrong person. Spencer hadn't realised just how much everything that had happened in the past few weeks had gotten to her and how angry she was about everything.
"Tell her this Spence otherwise you too will never get together"
"You're right...how the hell are so good at advice when I've never seen you in a relationship since I've known you?"
"Firstly I have had relationships and they've been ok and maybe I just haven't found the right girl yet..." Jamie's setenced trailed off as Kyla walked into the kitchen. Her hair was all messy and she looked sleepy but Jamie had never wanted the girl more.
"Hey guys" Kyla crocked.
"Hey you just missed the Ashley show" Spencer laughed as she handed Kyla a cup of coffee.
"Let me guess it wasn't her fault blah blah"
"Pretty much and I hate to say this but I do believe her"
"Of course you do, you're under the Ashley Davie's Spell"
"Come on Kyla you know the truth" Jamie tried to reason with the younger Davie's sister for the sake of her best friend.
"What?"
"You told me about Aiden the other day"
"So that's not the point she could've not kissed him"
"Just like you could've not kissed me?" Jamie was getting out the big guns now and she knew didn't even reply she just stared intensely at her coffee.
"Look guy's please don't argue about this. I haven't decided how I feel about the whole thing so let's just forget about it for now"
"Jamie's right Spence it wasn't Ashley's fault at all. Aiden has had a thing for Ashley forever and I guess he just couldn't hide it anymore" Kyla looked Jamie dead in the eye as she finished her setence.
"I should go see her...you two be ok here?"
"Yea sure but do you not think that you should get dressed first?"
"Yea" Spencer ran up the stairs leaving Jamie and Kyla alone in the kitchen.
"You don't have to hang out here you know" Jamie stated.
"I can't go home because I live with Ashley plus I want to stay if that's ok?" Kyla asked with a flirty edged closer to Kyla who was still holding eye contact, she reached her hand up a brushed some hair out of her eyes as tilted her head to kiss her but as they got inches from one another Spencer ran back into the kitchen.
"Woah sorry....please don't have sex in my kitchen" Spencer yelled as she ran out of the house.
