You're leaving? (A 1x1 with Lexxy)

[Lexus]

"Fighting with her is pointless, besides, it's just money, no need for it." He said with a smile. He thought he saw her cringe and it made him want to laugh but he held it back. "Also, even though we're divorced you have to be civil with her, she is the kids mother." He knew this would kill her.

That did kill her but she tried not to show it. "Why should I be civil when she went to have sex with another guy when she had the perfect one already married to her?" Sarah said while trying her hardest not to show how hard it would be to be civil with Ashley.

"Because, like I said she is my kids mother and I still have to make sure she's alright." He was waiting for her to crack. He needed something that would blow her over the edge. "She has to approve of you ya know? You're going to be in our kids lives'"

"How do you know she won't approve of me? What if she only tells you no because she's jealous? Why should you have to make sure she's alright? She cheated on you Clay. She went to have sex with another guy when she had a husband. You shouldn't care if she's alright or if she approves of me." And there it was. She cracked. "If you liked me you would date me. Simple as that. You wouldn't care what she had to say or think but you do and you know, I think that's partially because you still love her. Why, i don't know. She doesn't deserve to hold your heart anymore Clay. She broke it!"

And that's when he took the napkin out of his lap and stood up and laughed. "Thanks for proving to me you're just like the rest of them, you don't care about me, you just want this." He says pulling out the money to pay for his drink and set it on the table. "I was just pulling your leg, I don't care what she thinks, and what I do for her doesn't have to be justified for you, and let's get one thing straight, "I don't and I never will love her." With that he walked out of the building, a bitter taste in his mouth. He knew all those words he spoke were a lie, he did care and he did love her.

Sarah knew those words were a lie and she had a plan in mind. She went to Ashley's house once Clay left and told her everything he said and it broke Ashley's heart bit by bit. She shouldn't care what he told her but she did. After they talked Ashley stayed outside in the cold and sighed. It had to be a lie. Clay wouldn't say that. After the kids decorated the free they picked for Ashley's apartment, Ashley took them home but didn't say anything to Clay. She put his food on the table and then smiled. Before she left, she looked at Clay and said, "They helped pick a tree for my apartment but refused that I put on the topper. They said that was your job. So maybe sometime this week you can come over and put it on to please them?" Ashley said as she chewed the inside of her lip. She was bothered by something and tried her hardest to hide it because she knew Clay would figure it out.

"She told you didn't she?" He asks letting out a sigh. "Dolt let her get inside your head Ash, the things I said, they weren't true. I had to see what her true intentions were and they're just like the rest of them." He took her in a hug and then pulled away. "I would love to put your topper on for you."

When he hugged her, Ashley simply nodded and when he pulled away she smiled. "Thanks. I have work at seven tomorrow, will you be up that early so I can drop off Jenna?" She asked him. They weren't true. Clay said so himself. That was a relief but they still bothered her.

Clay nodded and opened the bag of food. He ate out too much since they divorced. He held up his hand for her to wait to go and pulled out a pen and paper and wrote down her bank information and handed it to her. "If you want the job, let me know."

Ashley looked at the information and smiled. "Thanks but I'm okay right now." She told him and then left but the next day she was back at seven just like she told him she would be. She knocked on the door and had Jenna covered with a blanket and close to her chest since it was snowing today. Ashley smiled. She missed the snow.

And of course Clay opened the door and let her in. He saw it was snowing and smiled contently. He remembered all their fun in the snow. He took Jenna from her and say her in the swing. "Are you working tomorrow?" Clay asked. It was Christmas Eve and he wanted all of them to have dinner.

"Yeah. I have the night shift tomorrow." Ashley said as she looked at Clay and sighed. She knew what he wanted to do but she was busy. "I go in at six in the evening and get out at probably like at two or three in the morning." She told him and sneezed. She really couldn't afford to get sick right now.

Clay have her that look when she sneezed and then shook his head. "You're so stubborn." Hw whispers. He really wished she would accept the offer. "You can't take off?"

"I could try but it's Christmas Eve, a lot of employees have already got off." She told him and sighed. She was stubborn. "I'll try asking for off. Why? What's up?" She asked him. She wanted to accept the offer but she just didn't know yet.

"Tradition, that's what up." He was talking about family dinner. Where they all sat down as a clan and had a steak dinner. He wasn't going to break that tradition for the kids when so much was broken for them already. It wouldn't be the same without her.

"I didn't know if y'all still wanted me apart of tradition. I'll try and get off tomorrow. I'll see what I can do." Ashley told him and smiled softly then kissed Jenna's forehead and smiled at Clay then left. Allie woke up and looked at Clay. "Is she coming tomorrow?" She asked him with a yawn.

"She's gonna try." he says with a smile. He really hoped she would come. No one ever missed it and even Ivy was going to be there and she had been away for a long time now. He wasn't even sure she knew what happened between the Waters. Last dinner they were still together.

Allie smiled back at her dad and as the day went by, Ashley didn't come until eleven which was later then usual. She knocked on the door, hoping she didn't wake anyone. She was freezing. She was getting sick and she knew it. She got tomorrow off she just had to finish things today to get it off. That's why she worked so late.

When Clay opened the door he shook his head at her. "You're something else." He says with a laugh leading her inside and covering her in the blanket to keep her warn. There was a fire going in the living room so he sat her there next to where Jenna was resting. A few minutes later he walked back over with warm tea and honey with soup.

"You don't have to do this you know." She told him as she sneezed and covered her mouth. Just great. "Hey Clay, is that offer still avaliable?" She asked him with a smile. She knew by doing this it was the right thing to do. "I didn't go Christmas shopping... Dang it." She said as she drank some of the tea and ate the soup as she sneezed and coughed again.

Clay sat beside her. "Just be quiet and eat it." He says teasingly taking the spot beside her covering her with a heavier blanket. When she asked he smile brightly and nodded. "Of course, I wasn't going to take it away, it was a matter of when you would quit being so stubborn enough to take it. When she said she didn't go shopping he laughed. "I know, which is why I went for you."

Ashley looked over at him and smiled. "thanks Clay. For everything." She whispered and kissed his cheek once more before she slowly began to fall asleep with her head on his lap. "Together forever..." She whispered before she fell asleep.

Clay nodded. "Together forever." In the early morning Clay awakened to start the peepers ruins for tonight's dinner and smiled at Ashley in the other rim fast asleep. When he finished he out the stuff in the fridge and walked over to Jenna who was starting to fuss for breakfast. He fed her and then dressed her. Ivy also didn't know what baby Jenna.

Ashley woke up after Clay as always even if she was still just half awake. She smiled at Clay and went to hug him from behind as he fed baby Jenna. She watched her down all her milk pretty fast and she laughed softly then realized what she was doing and pulled away. "Sorry." She told him then went and sat at the island. "Ivys coming right?" She asked him

When Ashley walked up behind him he tensed at first but then relaxed at the feeling if her arms around him. It was comforting. He wanted to protest when she pulled away but didn't. He nodded "yeah, she's coming."
