“Hello” her sweet voice sang to me.

“Well aren’t we in a good mood?” god this is going to be so hard. I can’t end this on the phone. I can’t do that to her.

“Even better now” I can hear that she is smiling, probably her cutest one, you know the one that makes her nose wrinkle.

“I’ve got some down time tonight. So I was…” I started but didn’t get to finish.

“Sweet, dinner tonight my place, I’ll send a care to come get you at say….6:30?”

Send a car? “No need to send a car, just give me your address and I’ll just mapquest it”

“Don’t want you to get lost. Besides don’t want you to drive if you have a drink or two tonight”

“Okay, since you insist. You want me to bring anything?” Be strong, you can do this. Ending this, what ever it is between us, is the best thing for both of us…right?

“Just you…I’ll see you later. Gotta run!”

And she hung up. I looked at the time, only 2:45. I have plenty of time to kill before I had to get ready. I decided to take a walk on the beach to clear my head and to try to figure out how I am going to tell her that we can’t see each other anymore.

“What are your plans for tonight Kyla?” right after I hung up with Spencer I quickly called my sister so I can kick her out of the house tonight. Hey, she owes me, I’ve left the house for her because she had a date.

“Nothing, just hangin out. You want to watch a movie?”

“Thanks, but now. Listen, I need the house tonight which means I need you to not be there.” So get out!

“Are you kicking me out of my own house?” trying to sound offended but I could hear her giggle.

“As a matter of fact I am…please?”

“Is that Ashley Davies, THE Ashley Davies whining?” so maybe I was whining but she owes me and she knows it.

“NO” my voice went up like three octaves. Okay, so what I was whining “I’m just asking for a big favor…besides you owe me” I know I am so not going to hear the end of this.
