Spencer's POV

SPENCER: "What is your problem? Why are you acting this way?"
PAULA: "Spencer, what you're doing is wrong!! It's immoral and against everything that I have raised you to be!!"
SPENCER: "So you're just going to pack up and move the family across the states because you won't accept me for who I am?!"
PAULA: "This is not who you are Spencer! And I refuse to let you be confused for any reason."
SPENCER: "You know what? Believe what you want to believe but I'm not confused and I'm not going! I'll move in with grandma if I have too, but I'm not going to LA."
PAULA: "You don't have a choice. Now go to your room!!"

I stand there staring her down, trying to defy her, but she's still my mother no matter how angry I am with her. I turn around and walk up the stairs, slamming the door to my bedroom.

So this is my new life. My mother finds out I like girls, so what does she do? She packs up the whole family and moves us to LA. My brothers are pissed about the whole situation because they don't want to leave all their friends, luckily neither one is in a serious relationship or anything like that though, then they'd never speak to me again! Of the two boys, my brother Clay is the most understanding and accepting of who I am. He's more upset at how mom's reacting to the whole thing by moving us away. My brother Glen, on the other hand, is "ashamed" like my mother is and not very approving of my like for girls. Then there's my dad. Good ole dad. . . he was a little weirded out by it at first but he instantly accepted who I am and still continues to love me. He even admitted to thinking that there was something going on between me and my girlfriend Allison before he found out, then it got confirmed when my mom saw Allison kiss me at school, while picking me up a week ago.

And that's how were here, moving to LA in three days and I don't think its fair!!

I sst on my bed and pull my knees to my chest. I rest my forehead on my knees and slowly let the tears fall that I've been holding in for the past few days. Then I hear my phone blast the song "Cyclone" telling me that none other then Allison is calling me. She loves this song. . .

SPENCER: "Hello?" I say into the phone miserably, trying not to sob into it.
ALLISON: "Spencer are you crying?"
SPENCER: "No, of course not." I say sniffing a little bit more.
ALLISON: "Yes you are. Spence what's wrong?" She asks. I can hear the worry laced in her beautiful voice.
I start to break down a little more, but tryi to control it the best I can.
ALLISON: "What happened? Is your mom still freaking out about seeing us?"
SPENCER: "That's an understatement." I pause for a second, scared to say it "She just told me that um. . ."
ALLISON: "What is it Spence, you know we'll get through it together, whatever it is." She tells me urgently.
SPENCER: "It's not as simple as that." I say still sniffling
ALLISON: "Oh God Spence. What is it, what is she doing to you?"
SPENCER: "She's taking me away from you. She's choosing not to accept me for who I am. . ."
ALLISON: "Where Spencer? Where's she taking you too?"
SPENCER: "She's moving the whole family out to Los Angeles." I say in a whisper.
Allison stays quiet for a few minutes, not knowing what to say I'm sure.
ALLISON: "When are you leaving?" She asks more quietly then when I told her the news.
SPENCER: "This Saturday. I just found out today."
ALLISON: "Geez Spence. This sucks. What will I do without you?" She asks miserably.
I choke up a bit before I speak, knowing she won't like my answer as much as I don't.
SPENCER: "You're going to move on and find a girl who you deserve to be with and that you can be free to be with, without any limitations." I say and choke up a bit more. "I love you Allie, and I will always be here for you."
I hear her sniffle over the phone.
ALLISON: "I love you too Spence."

We stay on the phone for what feels like hours, just crying with each other before one of us speaks again.

ALLISON: "Will I get to see you before you go?" she asks still crying.
SPENCER: "I don't think so. She's not letting me go back to school and she won't let me out of her sight long enough to escape the house."
ALLISON: "We'll figure something out. I couldn't stand it if you left without me seeing your beautiful face one last time."
I smile to myself, despite the circumstances.
SPENCER: "Same here." I reply, my smile growing even bigger.

??: "Spencer! Dinner's ready"
My dad calls up the stairs
SPENCER: "I'll be right down dad!" I yell back.

SPENCER: "I have to go eat. Text me with any bright ideas ok?"
ALLISON: "Of course"
SPENCER: "Ok bye"
ALLISON: "Bye"

Friday night, 3 am

I'm sound asleep in my bed when I hear Allison's ringtone playing next to my head.

SPENCER: "Hello?" I say into the phone half asleep
ALLISON: "It's me!! Wake up!"
SPENCER: "Allie it's. . ." I roll over and look at the time ". . . three am. What are you doing awake?" I grumble tiredly.
ALLISON: "This is my bright idea!!"
SPENCER: "What are you talking about?" I ask, not even catching on one bit to what she was hinting at.
ALLISON: "Spence did you forget already? We were secretly planning a way to see each other before you're shipped off to LA. . . member?!" she reminds me, sounding like she's trying to keep her impatience with me at bay since I'm half asleep still.
SPENCER: ". . . . ." I stay quiet for a few seconds, trying to remember what she means, then it hits me ". . . ohhh yea! So what's the plan?!" I ask, suddenly very excited.
ALLISON: "It's very simple. . ." she goes quiet for a few moments too long.
SPENCER: "Would you tell me already!!" I demand happily, getting very anxious to see her smiling face.
ALLISON: "Put a jacket on and very quietly come downstairs and walk out your front door."
I stay quiet for a seconds, wondering whether or not this will work.
ALLISON: "Spence? You still there?"
SPENCER: "Yea, just going over it in my head. Hold on. . ." I say and put my phone down beside me.
I climb out of bed quietly and tip-toe to my closet. I throw one of my American Eagle hoodies on over my tank top and AE boxers that I love, and then slip on some flip flops. I walk over to my door and turn the knob slowly, cracking my door open enough to reveal that there are no glowing lights coming from any where. I walk over and pick my phone back up off the bed.
SPENCER: "Allie?"
ALLISON: "Yea?"
SPENCER: "I'm coming now. Meet me out front."
ALLISON: "Ok bye"

I hang up the phone and quietly make my way downstairs. Just as I'm walking into the foyer, I hear someone walking from the kitchen.

???: "Spencer?"
SPENCER: "Yes?" I reply and stop moving, still facing the door.
I slowly turn around and look into the confused face of none other than my dad.
ARTHUR: "Where you going?" he asks, sounding as confused as he looks.
I just stare up at him as he walks toward me slowly. I don't know what to tell him. . . then it's like he just knows all of a sudden.
ARTHUR: "Ohhh. . ." he smiles at me weakly ". . .be back before your mom gets up. . ."
My face lights up instantly and I give him a big smile.
SPENCER: "I will. Thanks dad."
I lean in and gave him a tight hug before turning around and heading out the door.
ARTHUR: "Oh aid Spence," he starts and I turn around ". . .tell Allison I said hi and that I'll miss her."
SPENCER: "Sure thing." I say and give him another large smile.

I walk outside and immediately see Allison leaning against the hood of her car. She smiles when she sees me and I return the smile as I continue toward her. I embrace her in the biggest hug I've ever given her. Pulling my head back, I look deep into her eyes before softly kissing her lips.

We pull back reluctantly and climb into her car. We spend the next few hours, before dawn, atop the hill where we had our first date. We just hold each other and kiss each other the whole time. . . no one wanting to say anything that could possibly ruin our last bit of time together.

ALLISON: "I love you Spence."
SPENCER: "I love you too Allie."

We finally leave our hill top after the sun rises.

We're sitting in front of my house now, staring at the front door. I look over at her and smirk. Leaning over, I pull her into my arms, holding back the tears that are slowly forcing their way out. I look into her eyes for probably the last time and then I kiss her good-bye. I feel her tears and mine run together at our locked lips. Her hand traces my cheek and stays there as I pull back and lean my forehead on hers.

I take a deep breath and let her go finally. I turn around and slowly get out of the car. Just before I close the door, I hear her say my name softly.

ALLISON: "Spencer?"
SPENCER: "Yea?"
ALLISON: "Promise you won't forget about me?"
SPENCER: "How could I ever. . . you're in my dreams every night and day."
I smile at her weakly, then close the door lightly.

I walk to my door and inside without looking back, knowing that if I do I won't be able to stop the flood of tears that will cause me to collapse in front of the door and cry my heart out. I walk upstairs, crawl in bed and slowly let sleep take me as I cry silently to myself.
