“I’ll be seein’ you Ash.” Ashley waves as Jacy turns and heads into her house. Ashley sits there a minute, lost in thought, then starts up the car and heads out.

　

A few weeks go by and Ashley has been distant from everyone. Staying out later most nights and sometimes not even coming home. She shows up even less at school and everyone is big time worrying. Spencer’s been noticing that Ashley seems especially distant and avoidy with her and she couldn’t figure out why. There were times Ashley would seem happy to see her and talk to her but then she would close off so quickly Spencer would wonder if she really was talking to Ashley.

Spencer is sitting in class but not listening at all, totally lost in thought. ‘I’m gonna talk to her after school. I have to know what the hell is going on. And why she keeps avoiding me.’ With that in mind, Spencer turns her attention to her teacher.

The bell rings signaling the end of school. ‘Alright. Now all I have to do is find her. I know she was in school today.’ Spencer walks outside towards the parking lot. It was really beautiful out than it had been the last couple days. The sun was shining and the sky was clear. As Spencer walks through the parking lot she spots Ashley a little ways ahead of her, heading for her Porsche.

She thinks to herself. She breaks out into a little jog to catch up with Ashley.

“Ashley!”

Ashley freezes at the sound of her name, not wanting to turn around. ‘Why me!’

“Ashley! Wait up!” Spencer said, catching up with her. With her standing there in front of her, Spencer becomes nervous.

Taking a deep breath, Spencer looks up at Ashley. ‘Whoa. Since when did she have a lip ring. Damn that’s really hot’ Quickly shaking her head Spencer asks, “Can I talk to you?” Ashley thinks back to the day this all started and the talk with Jacy. ‘Guess I could at least talk to her’
