Chapter ten
Christie pov
"why the fuck didn't you tell me!" Ashlyn yelled as she ran down the stairs stopping as she came face to face to me.
"What do you mean?" I asked utterly confused.
She looked at me like I was crazy. "Don't play dumb with me Christie! You know exactly what I'm taking about! You've know for a fucking year and a half and never told me, Carli or even Jill for that matter!"
And then it clicked. I just stood there unable to move.
"H-h-how did you find out?" I studdered out.
"Kelley tends to have a big mouth and says stuff in her sleep."
All I could do was shake my head. "We need to take this outside and talk about it. We do not need to be in the house where Kelley is, and start talking about her."
Ashlyn looked at me and stormed outside. As soon as I stepped outside and closed the door she started up again yelling at me.
"You knew for all this time and didn't say a damn word!" Ashlyn screamed. "All this time why I was away she could have been getting help, but no you didn't fucking tell anyone Christie! You just left her and did nothing!"
"Listen Ashlyn!" my voice getting about as loud as hers. "Yes I should have fucking told someone what she was doing, but she begged me not to! She told me she would stop! You want to know the first time I saw them? I was at the dinner with the team Ashlyn. After I found out I couldn't stand to be in that room anymore I couldn't stand being near anyone. I ended up going outside running and then just cried..." I looked up at Ashlyn for the first time, and saw she was starting to calm down. "It broke my heart seeing someone that amazing, just hurt themselves like that."
Ashlyn looked me in the eyes and just came and hugged me. That is all we did for a couple of minutes, we just sat there and hugged.
What people don't understand about me and Ashlyn is that we understand eachother. We understand what eachother ment without many words. We may look like we are opposites, but we really aren't.
"You know you are helping her out alot right?" I said looking up at Ashlyn.
"How"
"For being there for her. You haven't left her. You didn't leave when you, saw the apartment, and when she told you everything. After all of that you still stayed. You didn't get mad. You talked to her and you called us, and hell you even cleaned her apartment for her. The whole team knows you love her, about as much as she loves you."
"thank you Christie." Ashlyn said giving me one of her million dollar smiles.
"Anytime kiddo."
