Circles and Circles – (Chapter: The fragments break me every time (chap 12))
“It’s too late” Ashley said, hanging her head sadly. “It’s too late.”
“It’s never too late” said Riley, slightly hysterically. She grabbed Ashley by the arm and hauled her up off the couch. “Go. For god sakes, I’ll get a lift back with Simon. You have to do this now.”
Ashley looked at her dumbly.
“She’s right you know.” Simon’s unmistakable voice echoed from the kitchen. Ashley wheeled around to find him leaning against the arch to the kitchen. She looked from one to the other.
“How long have you been standing there?” She demanded to Simon.
“Long enough”, he replied. “And I’ll bring Riley down the mountain later today. You have things you have to sort out, and you’ve waited this long to do it. Don’t lose the moment Ash.”
Frustrated, Ash threw her hands in the air.
“Fine, fine. I see that you two have made up your minds about this. But if I get crucified, I’m expecting you to show up with a crowbar and get me down.”
“Always”, smiled Riley.
Spencer got home and dumped her bags in the middle of the apartment. Without stopping, she moved into her room, changed into her jogging gear, and hit the streets. She ran and ran, and when she was tired, she ran some more. It was biting cold, but Spencer didn’t care. She ran for hours, until she found herself on the edge of the path in the park, kneeling over. Slowly and uncontrollably, she retched, emptying her stomach into a nearby flower bed. Clutching her abdomen, she rose weakly to her feet, and tried to run on. She stopped, meters down the road, swaying dizzily, until she found a park bench. It took her a good ten minutes to steady herself, and managed to make it home, at a slow walk.
She made it to her living room, and without closing the door behind her, she fell to her knees in the middle of the room, suddenly shaking wildly. She felt the tears begin to roll down her face. She wrapped her arms around herself and let her sobs fill the silence in the room. Her fists clenched against her sides, and her anger built. Lurching to her feet, she grabbed the nearest things she could find, a kitchen chair, and threw it, not caring what she hit. Books flew, shelves came down, as Spencer vented, her apartment going from spotless to trainwreck in minutes.

Ack! I love it! I’m totally delurking just so I can express my deep and utter LOVE for you and your fic. It’s amazing. Really. I’m almost embarassed to admit that I wait daily for it and check for it throughout the day. Anyway, it’s passionate, powerful, and so believable. Though the girls (and the other characters we’ve met) are so, so different from the girls on the show, you’ve done an amazing job of making their transformations and thoughts and actions so believable. LOVE IT! And update soon! Like, NOW!
