True Love Never Dies

Chapter Ten: Telling the Parents from Hell

"You ready for this?" Melissa asked while opening Taylor's car door open.

Spencer nodded glumly getting Gabrielle out of her car seat. Taylor was taken out by Melissa. Ever since Spencer told her friends about Gabrielle she's had this sudden boost of confidence. Maybe her parents wouldn't even mind that she had a kid at the age of eighteen. Maybe they would praise her for her wonderful job she did on Gabrielle. Knowing her parents that would happen when everyone on planet Earth were trillionaire.

Spencer and Melissa picked up their daughters. Now both sisters had a child on their hips. Once sister looked proper; one looked way too young to have a four year old daughter. Rosewood gossipers were going to have a ball day with this secret.

At the front door they knocked and waited for it to open. When it did it showed their mom. Their mom's face changed into a happy face when she saw Melissa and Taylor. "Melissa! And…Spencer." Her mom's happy face dropped and the expression did a three sixty twist as soon as she saw Spencer with a little girl on her hip.

"Hi Mom." Spencer lifted Gabrielle a little to make her daughter more comfortable on her hip. Gabrielle's face was back in the crook her mommy's neck since of the new face starring down at her. Mrs. Hastings opened the door a little wider letting Spencer, Gabrielle, Melissa, and Taylor in. the adults sat at the kitchen's island while Taylor and Gabrielle played with toys that Taylor had here. Mrs. Hastings offered them all coffee.

"Is…is she yours?" Mrs. Hasting nodded towards Gabrielle who was moving the doll in her like she was suppose to be walking.

Spencer nodded her head yes. "Yes, Gabrielle is my daughter." Her voice was soft, but still radiating with confidence.

Mrs. Hastings eyes still had worry in them. "The father?"

A glance was shared by Spencer and Melissa. Melissa's eyes gave Spencer encouragement. So, Spencer explained the same lie she told Toby to her mother. Mrs. Hastings's face looked like it had relief in the expression, but she shook her head in shame. "I'm sorry this child has no father, but the child will have grandparents."

A shocked look appeared on Spencer's face. This was something she had not calculated. There was only the slimmest chance that her parents would accept Gabrielle into the family that Spencer calculated it out. This day just got one hundred percent better.

"Really?"

"Yes." Mrs. Hastings smiled lightly. "We've been wrong about controlling your future, Spencer. It's not the future or career choice we had in mind for you, but if you like it, we're okay with it. You were faced with a challenge-a very hard, frustrating challenge-that most cannot bear. I'm proud of you and Gabrielle. She is a bright girl and very beautiful."

The words Spencer never expected to come out of her mother's mouth towards her just did. Never had Spencer gotten these words before. Everything she did to make them proud of her never got their attention away from Melissa. Now Spencer made a terrible mistake and their proud of her. But, Spencer took it and stopped questioning it.

Spencer smiled at her daughter. At least Gabrielle would have more family now. Grandparents, a half uncle, a real aunt, a cousin, and four aunties that were Spencer friends. That was a good enough family for Spencer right now.

Mrs. Hastings finished her coffee and got up. "Now, let me meet this wonderful daughter of yours."

"Grwandma is awesome!" Gabrielle exclaimed getting too overexcited for Spencer to buckle up her car seat.

"She really is." Six year old Taylor agreed as she strapped her seat belt on.

Taylor was only one year and eight months older than Gabrielle. Her birthday was in April while Gabrielle's birthday was in December. Even though Taylor was older the tow cousins got along well. It happed Spencer and Melissa that their daughter's got along. Unlike the two sisters had been like at their age.

Dropping Melissa and Taylor off in Philadelphia Spencer and Gabrielle headed back home to Rosewood. Gabrielle fell asleep during the short car ride home. Time for her nap, Spencer thought. Too bad I'm the one who has to carry her in.

When they reached home Spencer carried Gabrielle inside. Kissing Gabrielle's forehead she left Gabrielle's room. Spencer went down to her office on the first floor, and Spencer's phone rang. Not looking at the ID Spence said, "Hello?"

"Hey Spencer." Hanna's cheerful voice bubbled in Spencer's ear.

Spencer scowled at herself for not looking at the ID. "Oh, hello Hanna. Anything I can do for you?"

Hanna answered, "Yeah, I'm making sure of the time I'm picking the little squirt up tomorrow. Ten right?"

"Yes, I'm going to need her home by seven though."

"Seven? Why?" Hanna was confused. Did Spencer really put her kid to sleep the early even though it was summer break for her?

Might as well tell her, Spencer thought. "I told my mom about Gabrielle, and now she wants to spend Grandma Time with her granddaughter."

"No way! You told the parents from hell?" Hanna's loud voice rang in Spencer's ears.

Spencer poked in her ear to make sure it still worked due to Hanna's loud voice. "Parents from hell? Really, Hanna?"

"Hey, your parents are worse than Aria's, and they locked her up in her room when they figured out she was dating Fitzy Boy." Hanna defended herself.

Spencer face palmed. "Oh, God, Hanna. It got to go; Gabrielle is going to be waking up from her nap soon. Dinner won't make itself."

"Kk, chickca. See yah tomorrow." Hanna hung up the phone.

Spencer groaned as she got up from her desk. Dinner certainly will not make itself, but it would be nice if it did. Then another thought came to her head. Parents from hell. Had a nice ring to it. But, not anymore.
