Ashley’s POV

Spencer has disappeared. I have looked all over for her, after I finished my chores. I even looked in a couple of trees. The pond was even a loss. The last time I saw her she was in the kitchen with her parents. I hope she’s okay. Wherever she is. Aiden, Madison, and Kyla had asked me if I wanted to hang out with them for a while. I declined. All I wanted to do was find my girl.

Huffing and cussing to myself after my last failed attempt to locate the allusive blonde, I sat on the front porch to relax until lunch.

"Hey Ashley can I talk to you?" I look over to the voice only to be met with the blonde I wasn’t looking for.

"Sure Glen. What’s up?" Looking at him up close, I see pain in his eyes. Something must be wrong. Spencer!

"Come with me." I get up and follow the boy.

We make our way down a small path through the woods for what seems like hours. That’s probably because neither one of us is talking.

"Glen! Where are you taking me?" My anger getting the better of me.

"Just come on. We’re almost there." I’m such an idiot for coming with him. I could be looking for Spencer but no, I’m follow wonder boy through the woods.

"How much further?"

"Where here." Where is here? "Look" he points over to an open field with Spencer sitting in it. He brought me to her. I could hug him but right now, I’m more worried as to why Spence is here.

"Why is she here?"

"She must be real upset to be here. I don’t know what happened but she only comes here when she doesn’t want to be found."

"Then how did you…"

"I’m her brother." With that, he turned and left me alone with Spencer.

Even from here, I can tell she’s crying. It’s not a loud shrilling cry just a quiet sob. What happened? Quietly, I make my way to her. Her body is visibly shaking. Her face is pressed into her legs with her arms wrapped around her. I’m going to kill whoever caused this. If it’s Aiden, the calf is so coming out to play with him.
