“Why can’t you and I spend Christmas alone at my place? Why am I here, you’re mother doesn’t like me.” Ashley complained as both her and Spencer walked up the drive to the house.

“Because it’s Christmas and families get together. And you’re here because I asked you and my mother likes you she’s getting use to this whole thing still.” Spencer replied smiling as she reached the bottom of the front steps.

“Yeah she’s not use to it alright; she doesn’t like the idea of her innocent baby Catholic girl fucking around with another girl.” Ashley stopped behind Spencer realizing she crossed the line.

Spencer turned around glaring at Ashley, “You like to pick fights with her don’t you. You think that if she knows that we’re sleeping together and you can rub it in her face and she would fight back with you. You’re right she doesn’t like the idea but she’s use to the fact that I’m not changing.”

“Spence, she’s not going to allow us to be alone together, don’t you see…”

“No Ashley, I don’t, if you have a problem then why did you agree to come.” Spencer was hurt and didn’t care what was being said at the moment.

“I agreed because you asked me. I didn’t think we’d end up fighting. So you know what, you go ahead and spend time with your family, I’m not staying here.” Ashley turned around and started walking back to her car.

“Ash wait…”

“I’m not staying Spence, I’m sorry.” Ashley’s eyes held regret and also hurt from Spencer’s words before. She got into her car and drove off, leaving Spencer standing outside by herself.

As Spencer turned around and headed up the stairs, door opened and Paula stepped out. “Spencer, you’re here early…Where’s Ashley. I thought she was coming with you too.”

“She was here we got into a fight and she left. I don’t think she wanted to intrude.” Spencer turned her head back to where the blue car used to be and felt heartbroken. First big fight and it was Christmas Eve.

“Oh hunny, I’m sorry, but come inside. I’m sure she’ll call or stop by again.” With that Paula walked back inside holding the door open for Spencer.
