Hey everyone, so after reading so many Spashley stories and loving so many of them, I thought, well I should give it a try! And here I am. I hope you'll enjoy it, feel free to tell me what you think. Here it goes...

7 years earlier

Ashley looked at Spencer with tears threatening to fall at any moment now. She could see the love of her life moving her lips and probably forming words, but she just couldn't hear any of them. She was breaking up with her, after 2 years of an unconditional love, Spencer was leaving her.

"I just can't take it anymore, Ash. That's just too much pressure to handle…" Spencer paused a moment. She knew Ashley wasn't listening to her, and she couldn't blame the brunette. She felt like she was explaining everything over and over again more to herself than to the girl standing broken in front of her.

"My mom has been pushing it for months now, and I just can't deal with it anymore", she added after a moment of silence.

Ashley kept looking at her, shivering at the mere mention of Spencer's mom. Paula Carlin, the devil itself. She had done everything in her power to separate them since the very moment she found out about her daughter's "sickness" as she had called it. "I guess she can be proud, she finally managed to break us apart", Ashley thought, bitterly.

"ASHLEY!" Spencer shouted, trying to get her soon to be ex-lover attention.

"What Spencer, aren't you done yet?!" She was now getting angry, she didn't want to hear what Spencer had to say, she didn't want to hear about her stupid reasons nor she wanted to stay here or anywhere next to her. This was just too much to bare. 2 damn fucking years thrown away like it was nothing, like they didn't even existed in the first place. She didn't even seem to be sad, she just stared blankly at Ashley, and even seemed to be annoyed by the brunette's silence treatment.

"Can't we try to be adults for once?" Spencer said, glaring at her.

"Oh yeah, cause that's definitely what you're doing, breaking up with me to please your mommy, such an adult decision Spence!" Ashley answered sarcastically.

"Just because you don't approve of what I'm deciding doesn't mean that it's not the right decision to make…"

"Then make it! But don't try to make me agree with it cause I don't and never will! Go hide behind your mother because you just can't assume our relationship!"

"And what have I done this past two years?!" Spencer replied, yelling even higher.

"You've been a fucking waste of my time!"

And this is how things ended. After Ashley's words, Spencer just left without a word. She resented the girl's harsh words, but she resented herself even more for allowing Ashley to get under her skin that much, and showing her the hurt in her face before she left the brunette standing in that quite park, in a shiny day of July.

Ashley never heard about Spencer after that day. She moved out to LA for college with her sister and never looked back, but she knew deep down that she had left a part of herself in that park, a part of her heart that'll always be in the hand of a certain blonde…

Present day

"Ashley! Move your lazy ass chica! We're going to be late again!" Madison yelled from the kitchen, while pouring herself a coffee as well as one for her annoying friend.

She'd been friends with Ashley for 10 years or so, and went to college with her and her younger sister Kyla. After they graduated, all three kept their place where they've been roommates for almost 7 years now, deciding they had too much fun together to just move out.

Well, fun as it came to Kyla and herself, because Ashley was a lot of things, but certainly not fun.
She heard a muffled noise from Ashley's room followed by a bunch of swearwords, and then the small brunette appeared in the kitchen, hair and makeup everywhere but at the right place.

"Dios Mio! You look like shit girl!" Madison stated after a long look at her friend. "Again" she added.

"Thanks Mads, good morning to you too" Ashley replied raising her eyes and sitting on the island before sipping on the now cold coffee.

"How can you drink that cold?"

"That's how I like it" Ashley replied eying the morning papers without real interest.

"Sooooo… As Kyla comes back tonight from San Fran, what about a night out?"

Before Ashley could reply, Madison leaned over her.

"Scratch that sucker, we're going out tonight, and like it or not you're coming, so be ready at 9".

And with that she left for work. Madison worked as a nurse at the hospital. She used to work for a famous magazine but after a few months, decided for a change of career.

Ashley looked around her, enjoying the rare moment of peace and silence. Usually, the place was filled with the laughs of her dear sister and crazy best friend, TV or music on full blast and occasionally some noises coming from their rooms which she'd hoped she never heard…

Watching the clock, Ashley sighed, she was indeed late, as every freaking morning.

After getting ready, she left for work. She's taught music to kids since she ended college. She never really was into anything else than music, but as she couldn't bring herself to sing or play in front of anyone, she just decided that teaching was her next best option.

The day passed by, and Ashley was beginning to feel anxious about this night out. Kyla and Madison were pretty fond of those kind of nights, Ashley definitely wasn't. But she kept turning them down and now she was left without much of a choice. That shouldn't be that hard, she could sit somewhere and have a drink or two and relax for once. Yeah she could do it. She wasn't really a sociable person, but she could handle a night in the middle of dozens of drunk people trying to hit on her. Yeah right. She had to find an excuse.

As she was locking the building where she gave her classes, she felt something strange deep down, a shiver down her spine and her heart started ponding in her chest. Rising her eyes she just got a glimpse of blonde hair before the girl disappeared in the crowd of people getting out of work. "That CAN'T be…" Ashley thought.
