Kyla’s Pov

I walked into Ashley’s room to see if she was there, but instead I found a sleeping Spencer with smeared mascara. I could have sworn Ashley took her home earlier. Something must have happened, because she looks like she cried herself to sleep. I decided to let her stay asleep. I went downstairs and I found Ashley asleep on the couch with matching smeared mascara. I wouldn’t wake Spencer, but I didn’t mind waking my sister. I nudged her shoulder and she jerked awake causing me to jump back.

Ashley: “Jesus! You nearly gave me a heart attack!”
Kyla: “Sorry. I just wanted to know what happened with you and Spencer.”
Ashley: “We had a fight and I came down here to get away from her. I must have fallen asleep.”
Kyla: “So did she.”
Ashley: “What do you mean?”
Kyla: “She is passed out in your bed right now.”
Ashley: “I figured she would have gotten someone to come get her by now.”
Kyla: “Well, maybe you should go talk to her?”
Ashley: “I hate when you’re right.”
Kyla: “I love it.”

Ashley’s Pov

I opened my bedroom door and I slowly entered. I saw her laying there. For someone who cried herself to sleep she looked so peaceful. I sat down on the bed beside her and brushed the hair out of her beautiful face. I placed a kiss on her temple and her eyes slowly fluttered open. It was hard to stay mad at that face. I know she didn’t mean those harsh things she said. She sat up and rested her head on my shoulder and pulled me tight against her.

Spencer: “Ash..”

I cut her off.

Ashley: “You don’t have to say anything love. It’s ok.”
Spencer: “I know, but I am sorry. I was out of line.”
Ashley: “Yeah, you were.”
Spencer: “Hey! I’m trying to apologize here.”

She pressed her hand to my chest and pushed me a little. I grabbed her wrist and pulled her against me again. I placed a soft kiss on her forehead and she relaxed.

Ashley: “I know you didn’t mean those things. I know you are hurt.”
Spencer: “I shouldn’t have said that to you though. The one person who can comfort me and make me safe.”
Ashley: “Shhh. It’s in the past now. Just calm down. Should I be getting you home sometime soon?”

 Spencer: “I don’t know. My dad would understand if I wanted to stay. I don’t have mom to say no. She doesn’t even live there anymore. I haven’t seen or heard from her since she took me to rehab.”

She scowled and it was so cute. I placed my hand on her cheek and looked into her eyes.

Ashley: “Just sleep here tonight. I’ll take you back home when ever you want.”
Spencer: “Thanks Ash.”

I kissed her forehead once more and pulled the blankets over us.
