Save me - an Ashley Olsen story

Talks

Hey guys! So we get some protective JJ in this one and some fluff. Enjoy!

"Dad?" I ask and everyone looks at him. He just looks at me and then Jay. I start to get nervous and Jay kisses my hand to calm me. "So.. you're together?" He asks and we both nod. "Um... I don't know what to say. Since when?" He asks, "2 months" I say again. "No when have you been like... Like this. Like Elizabeth" he asks. oh great... Here we go.

POV JJ

"No when have you been like... Like this. Like Elizabeth?" David asked. Oh hell no, he isn't about to do this again. I glance at Ashley and she looks nervous and sharing eye contact with MK and Lizzie. "I..I thought you were, ok with Lizzie and Scarlett being together" Ashley says confused and maybe scared? David scuffs. "I tolerate it, yes. But it doesn't mean I enjoy having to see it, but we are not talking about Elizabeth's relationship but your own. I expected this behavior from Mary-Kate but not you. You were always so hard working and dedicated, yes you got a little list with those 2 boys but you Ashley are supposed to be responsible and proper."he scolds out. Ashley sunk into her chair and the other's look shocked. I couldn't help but snort and they all looked at me. "Oh, I'm sorry. Please continue. I really want to hear your viewpoint on racism too" I say knowing he had one on that as well. I could see Scarlett smirking and MK biting her lip but Lizzie and Ashley looked slightly worried. "You are not part of this family Jennifer. You don't get to have a say and frankly shouldn't be here." He says and a couple gasps are heard but but before anyone can say anything I speak up, "oh? Well I'm sorry I just can't help the profiler in me. I like to butt in when I see something just so utterly ridiculous" I say raising my eyebrow. "What is wrong with this? I have two daughters that are lesbians!" He raises his voice. "Now if I'm not mistaken Lizzie is bisexual and Ashley here... Well I don't think she has given herself a label" I say calmly back. "Jen just leave it" Lizzie says and Ashley grabs hold of my arm. I look at her and she shakes her head. "Look, they both want you to stop. Maybe you should leave." He says and I turn to look at him. I'm about to go full profiler on his ass. "Sure, sure but do you mind me asking a question first?" I ask and he huff but nods. "Who was it?" I ask and he looks at me confused. "What? Who was who?" He questions. "Well you see I figured someone in your life made you take a stance this way. I had a guess on your father maybe because well, that's a whole other conversation. But then after a couple things you said to Lizzie I thought no it had to be someone who hurt him. But then you 'excepted' her and I thought ok maybe it was just how he was raised and dropped it. But now, now you bring up different points and you seem to get angry that Ashley isn't acting like a 'proper' woman. So that leads me to think maybe some you loved a female.... I have a guess but I can't quite confirm it, so I'm asking you" I say leaning back and they all looked shocked, well David looks mad. "How dare you! You have no right to question me and make assumptions. You're just a girl who likes other girls and it's pathetic, couldn't get a man. That's what you need maybe it'll keep you in line." He snarks out. I smile bingo! The others are getting slightly mad now and I can feel a argument brewing so I step in before anyone else can. "There it is. Confirmation. You loved someone and she just couldn't love you back could she? You thought she stung you along, played with you and then said she couldn't love you because she loved what? Her best friend?" I ask and he jumps up slamming his fist on the table making everyone, but me, jump. "I'm truly sorry for that. First lives leave a place in your heart. You seem to have used that pain and learned from it. It's a natural defense mechanism nothing to be ashamed of." I say sitting on the edge of my seat just incase. "You need to leave" he demands. "Alright. I'm truly sorry you were hurt and you feel helpless. But please don't take it out on your daughters. You can hate me all you want but they need you and love you. Don't ruin the your relationship with these 4 amazing women you need them more than you think." I say gently. "I don't need to listen to this. Stay I don't care, I'm going to bed" he says and walks out. We all sit in silence for a couple minutes untill Jarnette speaks up, "I'm really sorry for his behavior... Ashley just know I'm very proud of you and accept you just the way you are. Your father will come around just give him some time." She says and then turns to me. "I'm sorry for how he acted." She says to me. I shake my head and wave her off, "would you believe me of I told you I've felt with people like him before?" I say with a smile and she chuckles softly. "Still. Thank you for standing up for my daughter's. And he was wrong, you are apart of this family. My favorite remember?" She teases and we all chuckle. "How could I forget! I love teasing Lizard about it" I joke and Lizzie scuffs and we all laugh. "I'm heading off the bed now too are we still going to the apple orchard tomorrow? Those apple cider donuts from that one orchard are amazing" she gushes and we chuckle. "Yes mom we are going to leave around 11 so I'll be warmer. We can eat lunch there" Lizzie says. "Ok, are you guys coming?" Jarnette asks us. "We'll be there mom" MK says and she nods and faces Ashley and I. "Do you want to go?" Ashley asks. "Up to you, doesn't bother me either way" I say and she smiles. "We'll be there. I wish I would have know then we all could have just stayed here" she says. "sorry, we came up with it like right before you got here" Lizzie says. "It's ok we'll just meet you guys there" Ashley says. "Ok, we should all head home then" MK says to us and we nod. We say our goodbyes and head out.
