Spencer signed.

 Megan is such a hard-ass. Fucking stubborn as hell. But I’ve got to try, try and try again. Me and her are over.

 Spencer began to pace back and forth. Counting each step she took, stopping at eight, and starting over again. Counting to eight was a nervous habit of hers since she learned to count.

We can be friends. I love Ashley. I just need closure with Megan. I want, no scratch that, need to know the reasons for her behaviour years ago. I need to know why she hurt me like that. I love Ashley. Closer with Megan. Love Ashley. Closure Megan.

Two, three, four

Love

five, six, seven

Spencer’s pacing and counting was interupted by her cell phone buzzing in her back pocket. She grabbed it. Ashley<3 She smiled.

   "Hello."
   "Hey, babe. Whats up?"
   "Mental preperation." Ashley groaned.
   "Mega-bitch."
   "Yes, Megan."
   "Do you really have to? You know how I am Spencer."
   "I know, baby. But you know how I am. I need this."
   "But, Spencer…" Ashley whined.
   "Ashley."
   "Fine, But you have to come over here right after you talk to her."
   "Deal."
   "So whens the talk?"
   "I have to meet her at the park in half an hour."
   "Ok…well I better let you get back to you’re counting."
   "You know me so well." She smiled.
   "Of course. Now remember, my house right after."
   "I know, babe."
   "Bye Spence."
   "Ash?"
   "Yeah?"
   "I love you."
   "I love you too, baby."

Spencer flipped her phone shut and started her routine again.
