Spencer Hastings. Captain of the field hockey team. Academic decathlon team captain. Class president. Straight A student. The best Friend of Toby Cavanaugh.

"What to watch.." Toby said falling on the couch, a bowl of popcorn in hands.

"The Scarlet Letter?" Spencer suggested.

"Again?" Toby asked with a laugh.

"I like it." Spencer said grabbing a handful of popcorn. Toby playfully hit her arm.

"Not until the movie!" He exclaimed. Spencer threw one at him. She laughed when she heard Hanna groan from the other side of the room.

"Will you two just date already?!" Hanna shouted, cradled her own bowl of popcorn. Spencer laughed and punched Toby.

"Yeah why don't we?" She asked jokingly. Toby's face turned red. Spencer laughed and shook her head.

"And we still didn't figure out what to watch!" Caleb shouted from his seat next to Hanna.

"Okay." Toby said getting up and looking at the collection.

"When am I going to get to choose the movie? Hanna whined.

"What do you want to see?" Spencer asked.

"The Fault in our Stars!" Hanna shouted. She laughed when Caleb, Spencer, and Toby groaned. The movie had come out about a week ago and Spencer's pretty sure that Hanna had made her watch it, at least 50 times.

"I swear if I watch that one more time I will get cancer!" Caleb groaned from beside her. Hanna hit him as he laughed.

"Okay lets find something we all like." Toby said.

"A zombie movie sounds great." Caleb said. Hanna and Spencer shook their heads.

"Uh, no!" Hanna exclaimed.

"Unless it's romance!" Caleb mocked them. Spencer shook her head laughing.

"Erotic." She whispered seductively. She saw Toby's face redden as Hanna laughed.

"How about this?" Toby asked holding up a movie. Hanna shrugged and fell back into the chair.

"Hanna doesn't care?" Spencer asked jokingly.

"It's just a movie. I'm probably just going to make out with Caleb the whole time anyway." Hanna said matter of factly. Caleb looked at her with a smile.

"Is that so?" He asked. Hanna nodded with a laugh."And suppose I actually wanted to watch the movie?" Caleb asked. Hanna rolled her eyes.

"And miss a chance to make out with me?" Hanna asked. Spencer choked down a laugh.

"Modest, much?" Spencer asked. Hanna nodded with a laugh.

"Of course." She said leaning back in her chair. She laughed while Toby put the movie in the player and tried to get the T.V. To work. After all that had happened in these past few years, Spencer was glad to have a day like this, with friends like this. Spencer leaned back into her chair as she brought her knees up to her chest.

"Wheres Emily?" Toby asked. Spencer looked up.

"Oh yeah, she had a little bit of home problems." Spencer said. Emily's mom had caught her and Maya mid-make out. Emily had sworn the girls to secrecy. Spencer laughed a little. It was funny how the week had played out exactly like Spencer had thought it would.

"Something funny?" Hanna asked jokingly.

"It's just, we're an odd group aren't we?" Spencer asked as Toby sat down. Hanna looked around with a smile.

"Yeah we are." She said leaning into Caleb's side. Spencer glanced up at Toby as the movie started. She never realized it before, but Toby was kinda perfect. She looked away as he glanced down at her. Spencer couldn't help but wonder if he thought the same thing. Spencer pushed the thought away, she was far from perfect. But she couldn't get the idea out of her mind.

Spencer struggled to steady herself. You'd think at 16 and a half that she'd know how to ice skate, but here she is, clinging onto Toby for dear life.

"Why did I agree to do this?" Spencer asked teeth chattering.

"Because it's Christmas and its fun." Toby said with a laugh. Spencer shook her head wildly. "Okay, how about you look cute when it's winter." Spencer blushed a little further.

"I wouldn't say that." Spencer said quietly.

"Get in the Christmas spirit!" He said cheerily, as he tightened his grip on her. Spencer laughed a little as she lost her footing stumbling a little. As her knee quivered Toby lost his balance and they both went down. Spencer landed n Toy with a thud and busted out laughing As she and Toby laughed, she realized how lucky she was to have a best friend as great as Toby. Spencer fumbled as she got up, still bubbling with laughter.

"I know what to do now." Toby said the laugh still on his face.

"What?" Spencer asked.

"Hot chocolate!" He sang out. Spencer laughed as she nodded.

"I just don't know how I'm going to get across the ice." Spencer said with a laugh. Toby smiled mischievously as he picked her up and skated her across the frozen river. As she looked over his shoulder, laughs erupting out of her like lava, she saw Hanna, her phone pointed at them. Spencer screamed playfully and covered her face, but it was too late.

As Spencer's phone ringing pulled her back into reality, she put the photo of her and Toby from that day back down onto her desk and glanced down at her phone. Just a Facebook notification. Spencer sighed as she opened it. It was a picture of Toby kissing some girls cheek. Spencer was surprised at the twinge she felt in her stomach. She pushed it aside as she threw her phone down on her bed. She glanced at the picture one more time before storming out of the room.

Spencer didn't really know where she was going but nothing stopped her, once she got to where she was going-the ice cream shop-she ordered a big sundae. When she sat down, she just stared at it or a while. A few minutes later she heard the bell on the door ring, and in Toby walked. His eyes searched the room until he saw her. He started walking towards her as she stared at him, once he got there he sat down.

"That seats taken." She said.

"I knew you'd be here." He said.

"And how did you, exactly?" She asked slightly irritated that he knew her better than she did.

"Because I came to your house and your mom said you left upset, and you come here when you're upset." He said simply, and taking the spoon from her hand. She watched as he took a bite and handed the spoon back to her.

"I'm not upset." She said, clearly upset. Toby sighed and pushed her ice cream away.

"What's wrong?" He asked.

"Nothing!" She said exasperated. "Just leave me alone!" She exclaimed getting up. Toby just sat there in shock as she walked out of the door. She couldn't believe what she just did, but she couldn't tell him why she was really upset. She couldn't.
