She was curled up into a ball on the sofa, her shoes resting on the floor below her and her purse sitting on the cushion beside her. She buried her face in her knees and covered her eyes with her arms. She was glad to be alone. She needed the peace and quiet, even if she could hear the chattering outside the door. Then the door opened and she looked up suddenly to see if it was Marc, returning to check on her, but it was not. A man who Ashley couldn't place, walked in and didn't even notice her. Granted his eyes weren't exactly looking in her direction but it was a little peculiar to not notice a woman sitting on a sofa in a high school coach's office. Ashley opened her mouth to say something when he suddenly shouted out at himself as he gripped the sides of his head. Blinking rapidly, Ashley closed her mouth and felt her eyebrows rising towards her hairline at the volume of his voice. Swallowing slightly, she grabbed her shoes and slipped them on before scooping up her purse from the seat beside her. She didn't want to interrupt this man's clear need for verbal release so she would quietly and politely excuse herself. She tried to slip around him to get to the door, a small apologetic smile on her face as she did so. [color=crimson]"Apologies sir, I didn't realise that I was in your office. You must be a new coach to the high school. Please, excuse me. I'll give you your privacy."[/color] She gave a polite nod as she grasped the handle of the door and slipped out into the gym hall. Her eyes found Marc in an instant and she saw him standing with Riley and Tim and someone else whom Ashley found vaguely familiar but couldn't quite place at the moment. She wasn't in any state of mind to introduce herself to find out who she was right now so, instead, Ashley slipped out of the side door of the gym and caught some fresh air for herself. She needed something to help clear the fog from her head. Stepping out, she found the nearest bench and slipped her shoes of before carrying them as she walked barefoot across the grass. She took in the scent of her home town and sighed. She never thought she missed this place before and, if it weren't for the insanity that was happening now, she'd probably want to come back to get away from the bustle of LA. Maybe once they were all safe? Maybe...[hr]
