What Aslyn has to tell


1 week later
*Tom*
I am in my trailer, getting ready to leave for today. Will had some new scans and x-rays done today, to check if there is still swellings, as he is still paralysed from the waist down. And I can't wait to get there and hear what they have to say. In all other ways he seems to be healing fast. And Willa is starting to talk about taking him home. Dan is going to fly him on the private jet with a doctor and nurse to care for him. I hate that I need to stay here for another month to finish the movie.

There is a knock on my door and I open it to find Aslyn outside. I actually contemplate closing the door in her face, but she holds up her hand. "I know I am the last person you want to talk to. But there is something I thought you should know, something important".

"Okay come in then, but this better be serious Aslyn". I step aside and let her inside, before closing the door, wondering what she wants.

I turn and look at her, my arms crossed on my chest. I do not trust her intentions and I know I have my guards up already before she starts talking. "It's about Will. His fall wasn't an accident and it was supposed to be you, not him".

"What ? But the trainer said that Silver had an undiscovered bruise on his back and that was what caused him to spook". I stare at her. Is she making this up, but why would she ?

She shakes her head. "I heard Walter, you know the groom, talking to someone on the phone. He said he wanted more money, as he hadn't agreed to a kid getting hurt and something about getting rid of the evidence".

"Did he say anything else ? A name ? What was the evidence ?" I had a feeling that there was something fishy about this. But they had told me it was an accident.

She shakes her head. "No, I'm sorry that was all I heard". She is fidgeting with her hands. "But I am pretty sure it was the same person who paid me ... you know ... to make trouble between you and Willa".

"You were paid ? That's why you slept with Will, for money ?" I look at her in disbelief. Then something dawns on me, she had mentioned getting paid back when I confronted her, but I had too much on my mind and kind of rejected it as a lie. "By who ?"

"I don't know ... I only talked to his associate and only on the phone. But I think Walter might have met with his associate". She says, constantly pulling at a strain of hair. "Listen Tom, I am sorry about it all, it wasn't what I agreed to, but when the original plan failed ... Well he threatened to take the money, and I needed them badly".

I rub the bridge of my nose, and my voice might be a bit harsh. "Yeah you must need them really bad to commit statutory rape ... what is it ? New boobs, a house in Beverly Hills, a new car ?"

"No ... nothing like that". She actually looks about to cry, but I don't really trust her. "My ... My mom is about to lose the house, my father left us for his secretary. Child service threatened to take away my brother, he is 11 ... I ... I had to help her".

Shit ! I didn't see this coming. Can I trust her at all ? She seems very genuine, no facade, no attitude, she looks young and vulnerable. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have jumped to conclusions like that".

"It's okay Tom, I totally get why you thought that, I haven't really made the most positive impression. But I was asked to ... well to seduce you, the guy behind all this, he wants Willa ... When I told him there was no chance, he told me to go for Will, to create chaos in your family. I said no at first, but he said he wouldn't pay out the money and he would call child protection".

I am pacing the floor. Who can be behind this ? Who wants Willa, not caring how many lives he ruins in the process ? Well one name comes to mind ... Dan, he also has the money to pull something like this off. But I have no evidence. "I might be stupid, but I believe you. Are you willing to come forward with this if necessary ?"

"Yeah, I didn't mean for anyone to be hurt. Will is a good kid, I ... well I like him". She says and as I turn to go talk to Walter, she grabs my arm. "And I am sorry for my behaviour, you know towards you and Willa ... I might have been jealous ... I ... I kind of like you".

I look at her blushing cheeks and downcast eyes. Taking a deep breath before speaking. "Let's forget it, Aslyn. But I am happy with Willa and I love her. And even if I didn't you would be too young, you need to find someone your own age".

"I know ... Thanks for being so nice about this, I would totally understand if you hated me. Will and Willa too". She says, walking out the trailer when I open the door.

I close the trailer door behind us. "You hurt Will badly, he actually had a crush on you ... he needs a bit of time to get over his first heartbreak. And Willa, well sorry to say, but she really doesn't like you and I don't think anything will change that".

"I get it". She says with a small smile. She stuffs her hands in her pockets. "Well see you around Tom and tell me if I can do anything".

I send her a nod and walk towards the stable. The first step is to have a talk with Walter. Then a talk with Willa, I fear that one most, I don't want us to fight again.

"Walter, you and me need to talk". I say as I reach the stable area and spot him. He takes one look at me and runs.
