“Fuck, I need to get out of this place.” I was starting to feel like a caged animal.

“Spencer, God just calm down. Did something happen at work today?”

I shook my head no. “I’m a mess, a fucking mess.” I fell down onto the couch, sobbing now.

“It’s because of her isn’t it?” The room went silent, the blood draining from my face. Suddenly I felt colder than ever before, a shiver ran through my spine.

“You talk in your sleep.” I could not bring myself to look at her.

“Her name’s Ashley isn’t it?” I couldn’t stand to hear her name. It felt like my heart was about to explode into a million little pieces and really I doubted there’d be anyone to scrape the pieces off the floor.

“Fine Spence don’t answer me. Let me do all the talking then because there are a few things I’d like to say to you.” Her hands dropped mine, I was afraid of what was coming, I so badly wanted to jump up and run out of this place. I so badly wanted to be as far away from this place as possible. I longed to forget but that couldn’t happen because it finally came, something I was not expecting.

Honesty – A girl pouring her heart out.

“Night after night I sleep next to you. I’m forced to do nothing as you whimper her name

Ashley

Ashley

ASHLEY! Over and over again I don’t even think you’re aware of the fact that you’re doing it.”

I finally looked up, she was crying now too almost as much as I was. I opened my mouth to say something, I so badly wanted to stop her but she put her hand up stopping me from saying anything.

"You always wake up before me; I can hear you while you’re in the shower. You think the water is drowning out the sound of you crying. You’re wrong. I hear it all Spence, every fucking day of my life I hear you crying. I look into your eyes and instead of seeing any sign of love or happiness I see nothing but a miserable girl and I swear I try my hardest to make you happy, I really do. I watch every day as you pull away yet I stay and I say nothing. You want to know why?” Her eyes never left mine as I shook my head.
