“So what happened out there?” She asked me after a few minutes of silence.

“Nothing…” I said quickly hoping she wouldn’t want to talk about it.

“Ash…if you expect me to trust you…you need to be completely honest with me…” She said with a concerned tone.

“I know…” I coughed trying to clear my throat. “Aiden was here…” I hesitated to say why he had come but knew I had to. “He was here to talk to me about what happened…and Glen wouldn’t let him inside the room…”

“And then what?”

“Glen stopped Aiden from coming in and hit him…Aiden pushed him up against the wall and then Glen lost it…he kept hitting him Spence…over and over…” I said wincing at the sight I had remembered seeing.

She remained silent as she took it all in. I wasn’t sure if I should say something to her so I just remained silent as she thought.

“I’m glad…” She said suddenly with bitterness in her tone.

I looked up at her quickly and raised an eyebrow. “You’re glad for what?”

“That Glen beat the shit out of Aiden…” She said coldly letting a small grin come over her face.

“Why are you saying that sweetie?” I asked not liking this new side of Spencer. Her eyes had lost that glow that I was so used to seeing and was replaced now with a darkness that I was afraid of.

“I hate Aiden…” She said through gritted teeth. “I hate him.”

I watched as tears came down her face as she continued to say over and over again how much she hated Aiden. I tentatively reached out my hand to place on her arm to calm her down and she was brought out of her daze.

Her face softened as she looked down at me and I looked back at her with sad eyes.

“What’s wrong with me Ash?” She said letting more tears come down.

“Nothing baby…nothing…” I said trying to reassure her.

She sobbed over and over as I stroked her hair trying to make her calm down. This wasn’t going to be an easy road for us I finally realized as Spencer continued to cry. Not an easy road at all.
