Part 3.1 – New York City, 4 months later

When she heard the front door open for the fifteenth time in the matter of 5 minutes, Ashley lift her head up again. Still no Kyla. Why couldn't the girl ever be on time. Ashley had been sitting in there for almost half an hour. Sighing, she went back into her book but unfortunately she wasn't really focusing on it re-reading the same sentence for the umpteenth time. Frustrated, she closed her book when finally Kyla decided to show up.

"Why can't you ever be on time, Ky ? I've been waiting for half an hour. And don't you know how to use your phone ?" she started saying as she got up to meet Kyla.

"Sorry!" Kyla said. "The meeting ran longer than I expected."

Ashley smiled, she couldn't be mad at her sister anyway so what was the point trying. They sat down at the table that Ashley had been occupying for the last half hour.

"So how did it go ?" Ashley asked.

"It went really well. You're going to be the next cover of Rolling Stone. But this time, they want an in-depth interview. Last time, they were introducing you but this time, they want the fans to know "the real Ashley Davies" as they put it".

Immediately Kyla saw the change in Ashley and to be honest she had been expecting it. "Don't worry, Ash. They know that some questions are off-limits." She saw Ashley starting to relax a little and kept filling her in on the rest of the meeting.

"Did you call Ethan, so we all agree on the schedule." Ashley asked remembering the last time and their unfortunate schedule mix-up resulting in two TV interviews being canceled at the last minute promoting her impending US Tour that would start at the beginning of next year.

"Don't worry, I called him when the meeting was over. The photoshoot is scheduled for Wednesday and you will meet with the journalist on Thursday morning. "And guess what." Kyla added excitedly. "They want this issue to be a big hit with your fans so they're having Giulia Gallo do the photoshoot."

"Really!" Ashley said with enthusiasm. She loved the woman's work. "That's good news, I love her work."

"I know, that's why I was so excited when they suggested her for the photoshoot. I think this is going to be great."

Kyla continued filling her in on other details and they decided to go get some lunch in one of Ashley's friends restaurant in Manhattan. They had called Madison who was in town so she could join them for lunch. They hadn't see the girl in 2 months and they were happy to hear all about Madison's stories.

Once the hour and half lunch was over, the girls were walking down the street heading for Ashley and Kyla's appartment. The girls had bought an appartment in New York because they both loved spending time in NYC and it was easier than staying in hotels for weeks at a time. As they were walking, someone out there decided to throw Ashley in for a loop and re-opening wounds that were never healed to beging with.

What got Ashley's attention first was the classic 1970's motorcyle parked between two cars. The red and black bike was really a beautiful sight in itself, like it belonged in some kind of museum. But, as Ashley admired the bike, suddenly it was like everything stood still and the world stopped turning when she saw the owner of the bike appear next to it. Here, in the middle of Manhattan, sporting a black with white stripes leather jacket and tight jeans stood a stunningly beautiful Spencer Carlin.

Ashley couldn't speak, her brain had momentarily left as she took in the beauty of her ex-girlfriend. When Spencer sat down on the motorcycle, Ashley died a little inside at the display in front of her. Spencer had never looked so hot in the entire time she had known her.

Kyla and Madison who hadn't noticed Ashley stopping suddenly realised that Ashley was not behind them anymore. They saw her, frozen in shock a few feet away. Kyla followed Ashley's gaze and noticed the blonde woman on the bike. That woman was probably the hottest thing Kyla had ever seen not that she was gay or anything. But if she had been gay, she would have been all over the woman in a matter of seconds, Kyla thought to herself. Well, until she heard the "Oh My god!" coming from Madison. She looked at Madison who had a worried look on her face and Ashley's shocked look registered in her mind. And suddenly the light seemed to turn on. Kyla took another look at the woman and realized than the one and only Spencer Carlin was standing in front of them.

Kyla and Madison went by Ashley's side who was still frozen, not knowing what to do. This was the last thing either of them expected today. Kyla honestly didn't know what to do, should she get Spencer's attention or should she let her go knowing that this opportunity may never arise again. Her mind and her heart were conflicted and Spencer was about to leave so it was a matter of seconds. Her mind was telling her it couldn't be good for Ashley, she was still too vulnerable when it came to Spencer, but her heart told her this was the moment they had all been waiting and praying for, this was Fate finally answering. She looked at Madison who seemed as confused as she was and before she knew it, Kyla was screaming Spencer's name.

A/N: The motorcyle I'm refering to in the chapter is a 1978 Triumph Bonneville T140V for those who are curious about it.
