For the Love of Toby

Reaper's Curse is the reason for this.


I was 17 when I met Toby Cavanaugh.

We met at my girlfriends house when he dropped her off.

We would hang out when we weren't busy.

We became the best of friends and we grew closer and gloser.

Both of our relationships ended when the girls left , but we stayed there.

We continued to stay , we went to Hollis and lived together.

We soon began to go to parties as well.

Toby met Andrew our sophomore year of college.

Andrew and Toby began to hang out more , and Toby began to leave me behind.

Toby told me he was bisexual 2 months after meeting Andrew.

I began to look at Toby in a different way and he looked at me differently too.

Andrew and Toby began to date , and soon Toby moved out.

Toby and I went to a party one night when Andrew was studying and I kissed him.

Toby avoided me for the rest of the semester

One night Toby and Andrew got into a fight and he came over to my apartment.

We didn't sleep together but we did make out.

I began to look at Toby in another way now.

Toby would come over to my apartment after him and Andrew fought

After a few months Toby would come over even if he and Andrew didn't fight

We graduated from college when Toby and Andrew broke up.

I offered to Toby that he moved in with me , but he refused.

I didn't see Toby for 3 years , he left Rosewood and me

When I saw him at the 10 year reunion he had a ring on his finger

Toby married Spencer after he got her pregnant

He told me he was in a phase during college

Toby and I were friends again

Spencer has a daughter named Aprille

I meet Jill and I propose within a week of dating her

I tried to fill the hole in my heart but I couldn't

Spencer and Toby have another daughter ; Aziza

Spencer dies of an infection a few days later

Toby moves in with Jill and I along with the girls

Toby and I grow closer again

Jill leaves me because she thinks there is another woman

Toby begins to grow more depressed

Toby starts drinking , and he begins to spiral out of control.

I realize how much I love Toby

Toby begins to get more angrier at the world

I watch him like a lovesick puppy

Years pass and we still love eachother in the quiet hours of the night only

Toby makes sure the girls don't see us

I know Toby doesn't love me the same way

Toby is ashamed now of his feelings for me

Aziza meets a boy in school

Toby begins to work nights and keeps quiet

Aprille begins middle school and Hanna is her guidance counselor.

I begin to talk to Hanna more and we eventually go on a few dates

Toby is absent during this time

Toby skips town one day , he just doesn't come home from work.

I raise the girls and eventually marry Hanna

Hanna and I have a son together : Spencer Nolan

I keep Toby and I's past from Hanna.

I see Toby for the last time alive , he is visiting Aprille and Aziza .

He tells me he loves me and he always did.

He kissed me for one last time with the taste of vodka free from his lips

Toby commits suicide

I remain married to Hanna but I never stop loving Toby

I keep those last words in my head

"It was always you Caleb"


So if you don't get the story or dont like it , well I understand. But basically I hint that neither of them truely want to come out of the closet. Toby left not because of Spencer , but because he is ashamed of who he is. This is kind of also a little tribute to a friend of mine who is the middle of an identity crisis . But mostly because an avid reviewer asked for some Taleb
