I’ve taken all I can take
And I cannot wait
We’re wastin too much time
Bein strong, holdin on
Can’t let it bring us down

The truth was, Ashley meant everything to her. Ashley was her best friend. Her life wasn’t complete without Ashley. She had built it specifically around the two of them in the past year. She always thought that they were inseparable. If Aiden wanted a battle then he had picked the right girl to do so with. But he would not win the war.

My life with you means everything
So I won’t give up that easily
I’ll blow it away, blow it away
Can we make this something good?
Cause it’s all misunderstood

Spencer sat staring out her upstairs window, cell phone in hand. She just kept staring down at Ashley’s cell phone number. She wanted nothing more than to call her and tell her that she loved her and wouldn’t let her go. But how pathetic would that sound if Ashley no longer felt the same way?  Spencer’s thumb hovered over the buttons but then she quickly shut the phone.

Well I’ll try to do it right this time around
Let’s start over
Try to do it right this time around
It’s not over
Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground
This love is killin me
But you’re the only one
It’s not over

Spencer sat there for hours, just looking outside. She sat a small convertible slowly drive by outside. She quickly thought of Ashley. Then her cell phone began to ring. It was her. It was the phone call that held all the answers. It was either her prayer or her death wish.

She flipped open the cell phone, answering it, “Hello?”

“Hey Spence.”

Spencer noticed how upset Ashley sounded. She wanted to take the pain away. But she caught herself and told herself that she had to be strong for herself, not Ashley. She wondered what Ashley was going to say. But as soon as Spencer wondered what was going to happen the words passed through Ashley’s lips.

We can’t let this get away
Let it out, let it out
Don’t get caught up in yourself
Let it out 
 
Let’s start over
We’ll try to do to it right this time around
It’s not over
Cause a part of me is dead and in the ground.
This love is killin me
But you’re the only one
It’s not over

Spencer fought for an answer. She wanted to say no or maybe. But when it came to Ashley she was weak. She was like a child. It made Spencer feel sad for herself. But just as she had figured, she said the only response that came to her mind as soon as Ashley had spoken.

Let’s start over
It’s not over, yeah…
This love is killin me
But you’re the only one
It’s not over
