Chapter Eleven

Ashley’s Story

     One more day. That’s it, just one more day and Spencer’s back in Ohio. It sucks, it hurts. I feel like slowly my life is draining from me. Spencer leaves tomorrow, and I don’t even know what I’m going to do without her. I’ve grown to have her with me almost everyday. Having to wake up in the morning and see her right next to me, sleeping peacefully. I won’t be able to see her gorgeous face first thing in the morning, feel her touch, hear her sweet voice. Her laugh. Her smile. Her kiss. Her embrace. Nothing. By noon tomorrow… She’s gone.

     But as of now, I get my surprise from her today. I’m on my way to Marty’s house right now. No ones home, so it will just be us. I honestly don’t know what she could be doing, but I’m excited. I think I’m going to give her, her gift tonight too. I just hope its not too much and she won’t freak out.

     I pull up to the drive way and make my way to the front door. As I get closer I see a note attached to it with my name on it.

     Ashley,

       There’s really no sense of you going inside, come around back and follow the trail, I’ll see you.

       xoxo

       Spencer

     After reading that I ciriously make my way to the back yard, and as I turn the corner I see a bunch of streaming lights dangling every where. On the ground theres a trail of rose petals and I begin to follow it. When I turn the corner from the pond I see Spencer standing there looking more beautiful then ever, holding a rose in her hand. I smile bright and walk closer to her.

     "There’s my girl." She says with a smile.

     "Spencer.. This is amazing." I say looking around at everything, I bring my eyes back to her. "And you look really beautiful." I teller her. She smiles and hands me the red rose. I lean in and give her a kiss on the cheek.

     "Thank you baby girl." I say as I take a step back. She takes my hand and walks me over to the swing and we take a seat.
