She finally had what she needed to make her boyfriend’s sister’s life a living hell.

Before Spencer knew it, Ashley was gone from in front of her and was throwing open the bathroom door.  She dragged Madison in and locked the door behind her.  Madison didn’t look quite so smug now that Ashley had her pinned against the wall.

"What the hell were you doing out there?"

"Nothing at all.  Just watching the two lesbian freaks almost get it on in the bathroom.  That is what you two were doing, right?  But seriously Spencer, I’d watch out if I were you.  Ashley here only cares about sex.  If she’s fed you a bunch of crap about really caring about you, I advise you not to believe it.  It’s probably just a bunch of shit."

"You SHUT the fuck up right now Madison.  You don’t know what you’re talking about, and you obviously don’t know who you’re dealing with here.  That girl sitting over there?  She means the world to me.  And if you hurt her in any way, or make her leave me, there will be hell to pay.  Now get the fuck out of here." She shoved Madison back through the door and looked back at Spencer, her eyes full of hurt and pain.

"Spencer, please don’t believe what she said about me.  I know it’s what everyone says, that I don’t actually care about people, and it used to be true.  But not now. I swear. You’ve changed all of that about me. I really do care about you, and I would do anything for you.  Please just believe me. Please…" she trailed off.  There were tears forming in her eyes, Spencer could tell, but they hadn’t fallen yet.

"Ashley.  Can you give me one good reason why I would believe anything Madison says over what you say?"

"no…I just thought you might actually think what she was saying was true, and that you wanted to leave me.  And it scared me.  A lot."

"Come on, let’s get out of here.  I need out of this place," Spencer said, motioning around her.

"Back to the gym?"

"No, I meant out of here out of here.  Let’s go back to your house or something.  Nobody’s gonna notice if we’re gone after the pep rally’s over anyways" Spencer reasoned.

Ashley took Spencer’s hand and led her out of the school, across the parking lot, and back to Ashley’s house.  Once they got there they went back up to Ashley’s room and sat on the bed.

"wow.  I can’t believe how tired I am" Ashley stated.

"how about we just go to sleep then. sound good?" Spencer asked

"yeah. I guess.  And sorry, again, about Madison.  I really hate that girl."

"Don’t even worry about it Ash.  Some people can really get to me, but Madison? She’s not one of them. Especially when it comes to you."

They gave eachother a quick smile, and Ashley leaned forward and kissed Spencer on the nose.  Spencer layed down on the bed next to Ashley, and they just layed there staring at eachother, holding hands, until they both drifted off to sleep.
