“We didn’t want to end up like her, but – but we still felt… bad… we left – Aiden came back for something, but we left. What the hell happened to her?” Madison actually looked worried and it pissed me off beyond believe.“Spencer, what are you guys talking about?” She didn’t deserve to act like she cared about Ashley, not my Ashley! I shoved her one final time. “Spencer!”
“Let’s go Glen!”
“Spencer!” I took off towards his car. “What the fuck did you do to my little sister?” He growled venomously at her.
“I – I – I don’t –”
“You know what? Save it, I don’t care! Just leave her the hell alone… and Ashley too.” He added then ran off after me.
“What the…”

“Spence, what the hell was that?” I kept my eyes on the window and ignored him. “Spencer?”
“You know what Glen? I have to explain to my emotionally absent girlfriend how I almost spilled her deepest secret to her worst enemy, so please excuse me if I don’t want to talk!”
“Sorry for caring.” We didn’t talk anymore after that.

“Spencer? Hey… I didn’t expect to see you here.”
“Yeah, well… I wanted to make sure she was ok.” Kyla’s eyes fell. Stepping aside, she let me in.
“She won’t eat and she just sits up there throwing up or breaking things… or crying.” We simultaneously turned around when we heard the sound of footsteps.
“Ashley, you haven’t been down here for hours, you feeling better?” It was obvious that she didn’t by the way she stumbled into the room, but I was hoping that she was just tired.
“Getting Advil.” Ashley mumbled and I could hear the hoarseness of her voice. She turned in our direction. “Spencer?” It was like she didn’t recognize me right away.
“Hey Ash.” She was wearing an ocean blue tank top and black yoga pants which normally where form fitting, but now hanging loosely on her weakened frame. Black circles had formed under her eyes, which looked dull without their usual sparkle.
“What are you doing here?” Her voice tried to rise to a normal volume, but came out rusty.
“Came to check on you… I was worried.”
“Well, not dead yet.” Coughing she downed the pill with a glass of water
“Ashley…” After catching the look form her sister, Kyla excused herself with an exasperated sigh.
“Can you take those while you’re recovering?”
“Do you think I fucking care?”
“S-sorry… just wondering.” Running two hands through her hair, she tugged it lightly.
“No, no.
