A week before Spencer got out of the hospital the younger Davies, now Spencer’s good friend, had to leave to go to spend the rest of her summer in Baltimore. Still, both girls had talked constantly. The good thing about Kyla, while apart from a number of good things about the girl, was that she wasn’t trying to turn her daughter gay. The straight girl was good for Spencer. Paula hoped that her ‘straightness’ would rub off onto Spencer.

Paula spoke, “So, how was her summer?”

Spencer replied, “Apart from the millions of emails Aiden sent her, she said it was good.”

“Speaking of Aiden, have you spoken to him?”

Spencer cocked an eyebrow at her mother, “Uhh…nope.”

“Why not? I thought you and him where friends.”

“I haven’t spoken to him since that night.”

“Does this have something to do with why you’re not talking to Ashley either? She has been calling.”

“It’s complicated mom,” Spencer said trying to leave it there.

“Well, it’s a good thing I think,” Paula said getting up from her daughter’s bed and receiving a dirty look from her. She smiled at her daughter and kissed her on her forehead. “Maybe I, you, and Chels can have girl’s night tonight.”

Spencer rolled her eyes at her mother, “Yeah, mom, we can. Oh! Is she still sleeping? Cause I wanted to hear Areona’s heartbeat again. You know we can do that? Put the heart monitor on her stomach and hear the baby’s heart beating.”

“Really? I never thought of that, I’ll go see if she’s awake.”

With that Paula walked out of her daughter’s room. Her heart was falling at the mention of her future granddaughter. The little girl will never know the love of her father. Chelsea was now living in Clay’s old room. Arthur and Paula thought it was a good idea since her parents had kicked the girl out. They told their ‘daughter’ that she and the baby can stay here as long as she needs too. She had already decided to go to USC for college after her Sr. year. She felt like she belonged with them.
