-Ashley's POV-

I opened the door and color drained from my face seeing who the angry being was, waiting for me outside. Sasha.

"What the hell?" She yelled at me.

"Come in." I was not in the mood to talk to anyone but I was wondering why she came here angry as a bull

"How could you do that? WHY did you even do that?" I was still confused of what she's saying but I'm starting to get an idea of what she's talking.

"I'm not sure what you're talking about" I tried to play innocent to her

"You know exactly what I'm talking about. Why did you have to break Shay's heart? She called me and she was crying. She's barely audible from her sobs. She loves you Ashley and she was willing to give you a chance!" Her words had taken me by surprise

"W—What?" The alcohol isn't helping me think straight and she rolled her eyes at me.

"It doesn't matter. Second chances doesn't matter, people never change." It was my time to roll my eyes.

"I did what was best for us" My tears were unbearable to stop.

"Oh you got your brains working now? You should've thought about that before doing everything that you did. You made a mistake of asking for another chance. She was fine with Ryan but you had to confess what you feel and try to woo her and invite her to a weekend getaway which on the last minute you decide to stay away. Were you even thinking?" she breathes heavily after rapidly yelling at me.

"I had to tell her!" I retorted

"I was trying to push Shay to the edge and get her to confess that she loves you and I regret it a lot. I shouldn't have done that and maybe she wouldn't have even considered giving you a chance. I was this close to getting it out of her and I would've have won the bet." I listened close to what she's saying.

"What bet? Are you guys betting on us?" I can't believe they would do that to us.

"At first it was just about the bet but through time I saw how she really loved you and I wanted so badly to help her but Shay isn't the person that's hard to fall for. She has the capability of making a straight girl fall for her. I liked Shay for real, as an older sister and as herself. But did I say anything? Did I do anything to ruin her life? NO! I kept it to myself because that's how it should be. You're so lucky that she loves you much luckier than anyone else for having been given another chance which you just completely put to waste." I haven't processed everything that she's saying yet but she quickly went out slamming the door behind her.

I don't know which to think about first; Sasha likes Shay or Shay supposedly giving me another chance and me screwing it again. Why do you even have to think about the latter you're letting her go anyway?

I fell asleep over thinking after Sasha left but the door bell rang again waking me up.

"Ryan?" Oh wow another unexpected visitor but unlike Sasha he didn't yell at me. He looked at me with sympathy and half anger.

"Can I come in?" He asked and I motioned for him to get in.

"I'm sorry Ry and please tell Shannon that I'm really really sorry." Fresh tears started to roll on my face.

"Are you sorry for trying to win my girl over or are you sorry for trying to win her over and when you finally got her you chickened out?" He wasn't angry like Sasha but his tongue is just as sharp as hers.

"Both" That was the only word I said before breaking down. He pulled me closer to him and I sobbed on his chest.

"Will you take a look at that two girls sobbing on my chest in one day." He slowly rubbed my back.

-Ryan's POV-

"Hey babe what happened?" Shay barged into my door and ran directly to sob on my chest. She was so fragile at the moment. I know she needed someone and I did my best to make her feel safe on my embrace. "She did this didn't she?" She sobbed more and I held her tighter.

"I'm sorry Ryan. I'm so sorry. I'm sorry" She repeated those words over and over again still nowhere near stopping from crying.

"I don't understand it Ash. Why would you leave her just like that? I always knew what she felt for you. She loves you even if she accepted my proposal I know she still loves you." She wiped away her tears and with few sniffs and deep breaths she regained composure.

"I made a mistake of asking for another chance. It was so unfair of me to break her heart and then show up asking for another chance when she's doing well with your engagement." Ashley said

"You should've have made up your mind before you what you did. You won your best friend back then you persuaded her then you left her again. Every time you take a step forward you step back twice. Why is that?" She didn't answer so kept talking "Do you know how miserable she was the first time you left? She was crying nonstop and no one could seize her. She didn't even want to work on the PLL movie anymore. It took a lot for her to get back on her feet and you tore her down again. Did you know that she went after you at the airport in Vancouver?" She looked at me with tears and shook her head. "She did but your plane had left already. Funny how you could always make her cry at airports. Shay had never been the same person as she used to be after that. Her smiles aren't as glowing as before; she totally lost the spark on her eyes."

"I'm sorry" she said and went full crying mode again

"I love Shay so much Ashley. I haven't loved anyone as much as I love her. I want to bring her shine back. I want to fix her heart and be there for her and make her happy but I can't. Even though I try so hard to do those things for her it wouldn't matter because you're the only person who could do that to her." I pull out something from inside my jacket and gave it to Ashley

"What's this?" She asked taking it

"She's flying to Van as we speak. I just dropped her at the airport before I went here and I thought doing this would be the best thing for Shay." She looked at me fervently

"I don't know if it's a good idea" I gave a sarcastic laugh

"Do you think what I'm doing is good for me? Giving up my fiancé to her true love? Come on. This is your last chance Ashley. If screw up again I swear to God I'll tear you away from her life. I don't want to be picking up again the pieces of her heart that you've shattered." She pulled me to a tight hug

"Thank you Ry" she pulled away and ran upstairs to grab her things and within a minute or less she was done

"Let's go! You're driving me right?" I nodded and looked at her up and down. She was wearing her sweatshirt and shorts and on her sneakers probably the first clothes she found on top of her closet. She didn't even bother to pack her things, just her big hand bag the one she brings to set..

"You know what, Shay just looks like that when she went after you in Vancouver. Come on." I chuckled and headed to the door with Ashley trailing behind inserting the ticket to her passport and stuffing it in her bag. We went inside my car and drove to the airport.

"Don't make me regret this. Go get your girl. Good luck Ashley" I said as I pulled off.

"Thank you so much for doing this. I owe you a lot Ryan" She gave me one last hug and rushed through the doors. I watch her rushing inside until she was out of my sight. I love you this much Shay.

-Shay's POV-

I didn't imagine for my weekend to be like this; me crying my heart out to Ryan and telling him everything and leaving for Vancouver. It was an impromptu decision but where else could I find comfort than in my own home. Everyone was surprised with my unexpected visit and I made up lame excuses to why I suddenly came home. I told them I was tired from the trip and I wanted to rest. I've been locked up in my room for hours since I've arrived. Imaginary images of me and Ashley in Las Vegas kept running on my head. I pulled out my phone and checked if she had sent me a message or something but I saw nothing. "Fuck you Ashley" I huff and tried to sleep my anger and sadness.

It was past dinner time when I woke up. Funny how the rain outside matched with my emotions. I make my way to the kitchen to grab something to eat. I was on the middle of the staircase when I heard my mom talking to someone "Jesus Ashley you're soaking wet" Who could she be talking to and did she just say Ashley? I remained standing to where I was "Is she here?" Cold chills ran through my whole body hearing her voice. It's her. Why would she even be here? I stomped as I walk down headed to her and my mom.

"What are you doing here?" I said really angry at her not caring how wet she looked.

"Shay can't you see how soaked she is?" My mom said as a matter of fact

"Get out! I don't want to see you. I don't want to hear from you." I harshly grabbed her arm and dragged her to the door.

"Shay stop it" My mom grabbed me and Ashley was standing with tears on her face. If my mom only knows what happened she would understand why I'm acting this way.

"Ashley honey are you okay? I'll go get some towels. Shay you better straighten yourself up" She said her last sentence in command. Mom aren't you gonna ask me if I'm okay? Shit!

I let out an annoyed sighed and crossed my arms.

"So you decided to show up" I raised my brows at her

"Shannon please hear me out" she said sheepishly wrapping her arms on herself.

"I'm tired of your excuses. I'm tired of you hurting me. You keep on doing that Ashley, showing me you love me and then stepping away." I tried to volume down my voice so my mom couldn't hear me.

"I know. Listen to my explanation and if you can't find it in your heart to forgive me then I promise you I won't ever disturb you again" Our conversation was interrupted when my mom came down bringing towels.

"Here you go Ashley. Where's your luggage? Do you have anything with you to change?" It was then that I noticed that she didn't even have anything with her.

"Thank you Mrs. Mitchell. I don't have any with me." She took the towel from my mom and wrapped it on her.

"You can use mine"I walk away to the stairs and I noticed Ashley wasn't following me.

"Are you coming or not?" I turned and said. Ashley slowly walked towards me. I needed her on my room so she could change, she's probably cold and so we could privately discuss things.

Without words said I gave her a plain white v-neck shirt and sweatpants. She quickly changed in my bathroom and when she got out I took her wet clothes from her and went downstairs to put it in the dryer. When I came back upstairs she was sitting on my bed still keeping her arms around her.

"You said something a while ago about explaining, I'm all ears" I stood in front of her with my arms crossed and feet tapping impatiently.

"It's not my intention to hurt you. I was thinking that if we took that weekend things would be complicated for you and I don't want to give you a hard time deciding. I know it sounds lame but I just came to realize last night that I have to let you go instead of messing up your relationship and forcing myself to you. I'm sorry I broke your heart twice. I just want you to be happy Shannon even though I know what I'm doing isn't showing it. I'm sorry I ruined everything between us. I had the chance but I messed up" I sat beside her.

"You're so unpredictable Ashley. One day you love me the next day you're out and away. What are your intentions coming here?" I didn't notice she was in tears if I didn't look at her

"I wasn't planning on coming here but Ryan gave me a ticket and told me to come after you. I don't know what I want exactly anymore but I want the best for you. " She said

"I was badly hurt Ashley. I can't pretend that I'm okay and that things will be the same as it was when we get back." I'm holding back the tears that's forming on my eyes

"We could totally ignore each other or we could get together. I think that's the only option we have and nothing in between. We can't be best friends again after what happened."

"What do you want?" Even with how hurt I was I know what I want but I want her to say what she wants so I won't end up being broken again.

"You" I stood up and let out a sarcastic laugh

"You're the worst person to be with, Ashley Victoria Benson. You hurt the people you love. I worked hard trying to get out of these tangled knots of emotions and just like that you straighten it out. I could say that I'll be happy without you but who am I kidding. I might actually want to give you another chance Ash" She stood up few inches away from me.

"Really?" her lips started to form a curve of a smile. I cut the distance between us and attached my lips to hers. It was a chaste kiss. "Will you be my girl Shannon Ashley Mitchell?" She asked as she pulled away and I hesitated to answer her. I know I want her but I'm not sure if I'm ready to be in a relationship with her. "You don't have to answer me right now. Let's enjoy the weekend and when you figure your answer out, tell me." I pulled her for a hug.

"Is Vegas still an option?" I asked her. She pulled away only to look at me

"Me without my luggage? I think we're better off here" I nodded and went back kissing her again.
