It seemed Spencer's hope of a calm day was quickly diminishing. Sawyer had woken her up, complaining about Jackson's cryptic text messages. It was the first time anyone had actually seen the girls argue, and they hoped it was the last time.

"I can't help if you don't tell me what's going on!" Spencer spoke loudly, throwing her hands in the air.

Sawyer ran her hands over her face in frustration. "There's nothing to tell!"

"I don't know, I think Jackson saying there's problems kind of sounds like something's on Sawyer!"

The blonde huffed, flipping her hair off her face after she slumped onto her bed. Well Spencer's old bed but that wasn't important. "He paid off the lender, and it was fine. But I guess they still want my dad to help them out."

"With what?"

"No idea. Something about Jenkins though I know that."

Spencer huffed, throwing her hands in the air as she barged from the room. She didn't have the energy to deal with Sawyer. What she arrived to downstairs, however, wasn't much better. She had heard Beth and her father plotting to put someone else up for Attorney General. If the blonde chick on the couch was any indication, it seemed their problem was solved.

"Oh she'll do just fine Daddy," Spencer smirked, not bothering to stay for a conversation as she walked out the door. The only thing that could calm Spencer down right now was a ride. Or Rip. Or... She smirked at the thought, but her flailing good mood fell quickly as she ran into Walker.

"Princess."

"Bitch boy."

Walker stiffened, standing to his full height which just made Spencer laugh.

"I already told your psycho boyfriend, but I ain't breaking the law for you. I don't give a damn about you or this ranch."

"Walker, if I gave a shit about what half of this town thought about me, I'd never leave my fucking room. If you don't wanna live up to the brand, that's fine by me. But I'd sleep with one eye open, it's a real bitch when we take them back."

Spencer shoved Walker hard, causing the man to stumble to the ground. She didn't even give him a second look as she made her way to Rebel, stepping over the idiot. Rebel raced out of the barn once Spencer had him ready, almost as if he could feel the tension running through her.

Sawyer stared at her phone as it continued to buzz, Erin's name flashing on the screen. She had been avoiding her brother's friends for weeks, but it seemed her hiatus from her life was ending.

"About time you answered," Erin's voice rang through the phone. Sawyer heard the background noise, and realized the girl was with her brother. Typical.
