Spencer’s POV

I made my trek through the parking lot. It had been a long day today and I was tired as all fuck. I had to finish my project for Mr. Heckle after class and that added on to my already tired state. Not to mention that fight I had with Ashley. I still regret making her believe I didn’t want her because God himself knows I do, but I couldn’t take it anymore. Let’s face it folks, Ashley’s fucking crazy. Drama follows her like a second scent. I finally made it to my little green bug and got in. I just wanted to get home and relax. I stuck my key in the engine and just as I was about to start the car, a hand grabbed my shoulder and I screamed my head off.  I whipped around to see who it was and realized it was Ashley. She was laughing but I was not. I gripped onto my steering wheel and sighed. I rested my head on the steering wheel as well, heart hammering out of my chest.

Spencer: Goddamn it Ashley! You scared the ever-loving crap out of me. I just had a mini heart attack, are you happy?

I asked as she still laughed. I turned to the back seat looking at her.

Ashley: I quite liked that reaction though Spence…you should have seen your face.

She said and I smiled.

Spencer: Oh shut up.

I said and then she got serious. Ashley climbed over the center console of my Slug bug and sat in the passenger seat.

Ashley: Spencer we need to talk.

She said and I sighed.

Spencer: No we don’t Ashley. I meant what I said. I’m okay with us being friends because I like having you around but as for us being together…I don’t think it can work.

I said, lying out of my teeth. I didn’t just want to be her friend. I think about how I’m saying the opposite of everything I really want to say and I want to slap myself. It’s like how you watch those TV shows where the couple is having problems then they break up and one or the other wants to get back together but one of them is being so stubborn when they obviously love the person back but won’t give in? That’s how it was turning out and I hate it because I don’t want to be that stubborn person who is obviously in love but won’t give in.
