The Architecture of Falling… – (Chapter: I Know…)
Trust me, I know.
I know.
And I’ve known all of these days and all of these moments and all the way home that something had to give. And it did.
It did.
Ashley sounded strangely calm as she hung up on me, leaving me with a smiling Megan and a heart that was beating out of my chest. I could hear the sadness in her voice and I knew her well enough to know the truth had wrecked the remainder of her presumably already ravished ship.
“Baby, what’s wrong? Are you ok?”
Megan was staring at me now, her face full of concern.
“Yeah…yeah, I’m fine.”
“You don’t look fine.”
“Well I guess you’ll just have to trust me then, huh?” I reply, walking towards my bedroom door, “are you ready to get out of here or what?”
“You know I am.”
She smiles the smile of a girl that supposedly knows me, but it’s not like Ashley’s smile at all.
Ashley…
“Megan, wait. Can I meet you out there, actually? I have to make a quick phone call.”
“Sure, but hurry, ok? Christmas only comes once a year.”
She had stayed behind for the holiday break so that I wouldn’t have to spend it alone. The gesture had managed to warm the same inconstant heart that normally wouldn’t let her in and for a moment I could almost believe I loved her. For a moment I could almost believe I loved her the way I love Ashley.
But as usual, the moment passed. The moment shifted and transferred and lapsed into other moments before it had left any permanency at all. The only imprint from two years of supposedly living was shaped in the unmistakable form of Ashley Davies.
I found her number quickly in my phone and wasted no time in calling her. I could only hope she would answer.
I surely didn’t expect her to answer on the first ring.
“Hello?”
“Ash, it’s me. It’s Spencer.”
“I know.”
“Listen, I don’t have much time and I know I have a lot of explaining to do. But…”
“Why didn’t you tell me?”
I stupidly bought myself time that wouldn’t help anything at all, “I tried so many times. You have no idea how many times.”

damn. spencer .. she’s crazy! loL! anyways. that was .. kinda messed up. and heartless in a way. but it made a little bit happy because she FINALLY admitted her love for ashley. and it should be interesting to see her get her back. she’s really gonna have to fight for her. awesome update! this story is SO amazing! PMASAP!
man spence was really harsh even if she wasn’t in love with megan she shouldn’t of said all the things she did to her.great update!pms!!!
I’m not angry at Spencer, because her broken heart over losing Ashley has rendered her emotionally incapable of making comprehensible decisions. We all have lashed out at others when we are hurting and that is all that Spencer was doing. Spencer loves Ashley with all her heart and she has truly damaged her relationship with the woman she loves and unfortunately she has only herself to blame. However, her emotional state has been stunted by so many past issues, the main one being the loss of her mom and dad which in turn creates fear to love without loss. If you’ve lost someone you love, you’re not so apt to allow yourself to love again. Spencer fell in love with Ashley and now she’s lost her…ask yourself a question and be honest…how would you feel? One of the stages of grief is anger and Spencer was rejected by Ashley…I believe I would be pissed off too and would take it out on the person I was with at the moment. I’m not saying what she did was right, I just understand her actions. I truly loved this amazing update…you take my breath away…PMS
I understand Dallas1111 point of view but I reckon it’s important to remember that this kind of coldhearted attitude has been evident for some time! This was not the first time she has said something horriable and cold, she’s done it before and she’ll do it again if she doesn’t learn to deal with her past and present in a more healthy way! I also agree with what a lot of others have said, Spencer needs to sort herself out before going anywhere near Ash to try and explain herself. I loved this update and can’t wait for the next one – which I hope will be soon ;) Thanks!
Wow, that was way harsh of Spencer to treat Megan like that. Now I feel bad for Megan and Ashley. Truthfully, I feel a little sorry for Spencer too because I think she’s really emotionally wounded from losing her parents. She better find a way to make it up to Ash. This is story is pretty awesome!
Pulls at the heart strings…I’m all about redemption, I love the theme…Spencer has been dealt some crappy cards to play and I can cut her some slack here..I’m just hoping that she can get it togethere and convince Ashley that she really does loves her..guess I’ll just wait and see..”pride goeth before the fall…” after all…PMS
Ouch, that was rough… but honestly I can empathize with the poor girl (i think i’d be a little emotionally hindered if i lost both of my parents)… Like you said goaskalice… “people are made to be redeemed” life would suck without second chances… hopefully spencer will get hers… oh and I absolutely love this story!! your writing is amazing… seriously!
I just wanted to say that I am on deployment in the Middle East and when I have chance to go on the internet I read your stories. This one was great i hope that you update it soon.
Where are you???? Please PMS because I really love this story and I need more of it. It’s so great! So hurry and PMASAP!!!!!!!

wow. You know how to come back…Is it wrong that this chapter made me love Spencer? It is good that she finally let herself love Ash and it is even better that Ashley didnt let her try and solve everything by saying “i love you” how the tables have turned..Spencer better have something planned if she is going to get her back, if she even still has a shot PMASP!!!

Ok, you’re really making me not like Spencer, like at all. She’s such a bitch, that girl didn’t deserve that. Spencer’s like the grinch and I want to slap her right now. It’s not Megan’s fault, she didn’t know about Ashley so the only person Spencer should be blaming is herself. Now that I’ve vented a little…I still feel pissed. Spencer just needs to be alone and get herself together before she can be with Ashley, that is if Ashley even wants Spencer back after all this. I so completely agree with ge97511 and chipsahoy. Ok, I’m done, even though this update really stirred my emotions it was completly AMAZING, your such a great writer and I love this story. PMASAP!!!!!!!

Ouch! Wow, hate to say it but it seems Spencer is a lost cause in this one. That was a little too hard core…I don’t know. Everyone has been in a relationship with someone they weren’t really that into and had to face facts that the true love just isn’t there. But the way she handled it was just too cold hearted. If there is any redemption for Spencer she needs to deal with her emotions, pain and fear. Then she needs a reality check in the form of romantic failure to balance her previous nature…and if she can successfully deal with that loss in a healthy way…MAYBE then she can have another shot with Ash…maybe…

*groans* Okay, I don’t know if I should love Spencer because she finally admitted to herself that she loved Ash or despise her for the way she treated Megan. God, that was harsh and that poor girl really didn’t seem to deserve it. I hope Spencer doesn’t go after Ash yet. She needs time to get her shit together. It would suck if she hurt Ash again. I’ll stop rambling now. I really love this. Awesome job!! PMS!!!
