Ashley’s P.O.V.

Seeing Spencer at school was hell.

I wanted nothing more than to run up and kiss her. But I couldn’t. I couldn’t even fucking talk to her because whenever she was around, Aiden would put his arm around me, pulling me closer to him, like I was going to run off after her or something. The worst part is that even though Spencer looked devastated when she left my penthouse last Saturday, she looks pretty damn happy at school. Its like she’s torturing me for what I did (and I kind of deserve it). The pathetic thing is that whenever I see her kissing Tyler in the halls, or laughing with him, I feel so much jealously inside me I could explode. And I’m a total hypocrite; why didn’t I just tell Aiden the truth? Why did I have to care so much about what people say about me?

“Ashley???” Aiden said, waving his hand over my face. “Hello??”

“Oh, sorry Aiden.” I replied, quickly snapping out of my daze. I directed my eyes towards him, and not the beautiful blonde sitting a few feet away.

“So, I was asking if you remembered that Glen and I are going to Monaco for break?”

“Oh yeah…I remember…”

“Did you decide if you wanted to come yet?”

“Um…Aiden. I don’t think I should. Things are so rough at home right now and-“

“Psh. You mean things are rough with Spencer don’t you? God, Ashley, I know she was your best friend but she’s a total slut! Just get over her!” he shouted before walking away.

I couldn’t hold it in any longer. Tears came streaming down my face, smearing my make up. I felt like an idiot standing in the courtyard balling my eyes out so I ran towards the nearest bathroom.

Closing the stall door behind me, I collapsed on the floor. I hate myself. I messed everything up and I lost my best friend and one true love. What the fuck was wrong with me?

All of the sudden, I heard someone else enter the bathroom. I was about to tell them to go away when I heard Spencer’s voice from right outside the stall door. “Ashley. I know you’re in there. Open up.”

“Why? So you can make me feel worse for what I did? I already regret it enough so go away!” I choked out.

“I came here to ask you a question. C’mon Ash. Open the door.”

I got myself off the bathroom floor and unlocked the stall door. My breath was nearly taken away being this close to Spencer, breathing in her familiar scent.

“So, Ashley,” she began, her own eyes filling up with tears. “Why did you hesitate in telling Aiden? Why didn’t you tell him the truth? I thought we had something special…”

“I’m so sorry Spencer. Please forgive me. You know I’m completely in love with you right?”

“Well, I wasn’t too sure considering you lied to Aiden about us and that you’re still with him.”

“Um…your with Tyler too Spencer.”

“Only to make you jealous! I don’t love him the way I love you!”

I could no longer stand it. I grabbed the back of Spencer’s neck, bringing her lips to mine. She seemed to resist at first, but then slid her hands around my waist as I ran my tongue along her bottom lip. I ran my fingers through her long blonde locks, and moaned into the kiss as she roughly grabbed my ass. I started to unzip her jacket and then-

I heard the sound of a camera behind us.
