Ashley and Kyla were eating lunch at the quad. Kyla saw that Ashley was copying down Spencer’s notes. “Since when do you care about your schoolwork?” Kyla asked with curiosity. I have never seen you pick up a pen for anything school related ever. Kyla chuckled.

“Since forever,” answered Ashley simply. Kyla gave Ashley an unconvinced look and Ashley added with a laugh, “I wasn’t really paying attention in health class today since I was too busy looking at Spencer. It’s like you said. I can’t have another screw up or else I’ll be sent to boarding school. I was not brought up in the world where Christine Davies is right.”

“Spencer’s your influence for you doing your schoolwork now,” Kyla stated knowingly. So did you put the jacket on her because you were jealous of your classmates checking her out?

“Yep, she is,” responded Ashley. She makes me want to be a better person. I just wanted to look out for her, that’s all. I’m not jealous of some losers who were checking her out.

“Sure, only for that reason,” Kyla stated in an unconvinced tone. You didn’t have any ulterior motives with putting the jacket on her?

“Nope,” responded Ashley simply. I don’t have any ulterior motives.

“Yeah, but also so no one will check out your love interest,” Kyla observed amused.

“Alright, you’ve got a point,” said Ashley with a chuckle. It worked, didn’t it? It’s kind of pathetic, isn’t it? I want to lessen up the competition.

“I’m not going to say anything,” Kyla replied. Spencer walked towards them.

“Hello, Davies sisters,” Spencer greeted. Spencer sat across from Ashley.

“Hi,” said Ashley with a smile.

“Hey,” Kyla said.

“Thanks for lending me your notes,” began Ashley. You are such a lifesaver.

“No problem,” Spencer responded. Ashley handed Spencer back her notebook. She gave Kyla a cue for Kyla to leave.

“I’ll leave you girls to talk,” stated Kyla simply. Kyla walked away.

“Thanks for putting the jacket on me in health class,” Spencer began.

“No problem,” responded Ashley with a smile. So you never did tell me what’s with the change in clothing, Spence? Who are you trying to impress? Who’s the lucky girl? The girl whose ass I would kick if she ever hurts my girl.
