The next morning, the blonde woke up to sun streaming through the windows and someone lightly kissing her neck.
"Spence! You're back?" She mumbled sleepily as she rolled over.
"Eh, there was nothing else for me to do there, so I hit the road." She shrugged as she gave her quick explanation.
"Well I'm glad you're here! Come here!" She said, already pulling the brunette on top of herself.
"Did you have a good Saturday?" Spencer asked, still leaving light kisses up Hanna's neck.
"I guess, I missed you though; how was your interview?"
"The interview and the tour went really well, I think the school would be a great fit for me."
"Of course it would be. You are Spencer Hastings after all." The blonde retorted, leaning forward to connect their lips.
"No, we can't get too into this, your mom is awake and downstairs." Spencer said, pulling back once Hanna tried to deepen the kiss.
"So? We can be quiet."
"Hanna-this is you and me we're talking about." She added with a smirk.
"I guess you're right. There's nothing quiet about it since you know exactly what drives me crazy."
"Why don't we go downstairs and have some breakfast with your mom?"
"Yeah, I guess. One more kiss though?" She asked, batting her eyelashes adorably until Spencer leaned forward and gently kissed her once again.
"So Spencer, how was your interview yesterday?" Ashley Marin asked as the brunette walked down the stairs, followed closely by Hanna.
"It went really well actually, thanks."
"I'm glad, you definitely deserve it! I've seen how hard you work for everything."
"Geez Mom, just ask Veronica if she wants to switch kids already." Hanna said dryly as she filled up her coffee cup, oblivious to Spencer and Ashley rolling their eyes and smiling.
"How was your weekend, Mrs. Marin?" Spencer asked politely as she sat down at the table.
"It's Ashley, Spencer. You know that." The redhead said warmly. "And my weekend was good, I spent the day with Pastor Ted yesterday while Hanna laid around the house sulking."
"Mom!" The blonde yelled as Spencer stifled a laugh.
"What? It's true!"
"Yeah, but you don't need to go broadcasting it! This isn't the weekly forecast at the Marin's house, alright?"
"Whatever you say, Hanna." Ashley smirked as she took a sip of her coffee, winking at Spencer.
After spending the morning laughing together, Spencer went back to her house to finish her homework and visit with her parents about her trip.
Earlier the next morning, Aria, Hanna, and Emily were standing around Emily's locker talking after first period.
"Have you guys seen Spencer this morning?" The blonde asked as the other two looked somewhat confused.
"I thought you two normally drove to school together?" Aria asked as she took a book out of her locker.
"We normally do, but she was being super weird last night when I texted her about driving."
"I'm sure she was just distracted by all of her homework." Emily suggested, trying to ease Hanna's mind.
"Yeah, maybe."
"Oh, there she is." Aria nodded across the hallway where Spencer was talking to the head of the debate team, Andrew.
All three girls stood still and confused as Spencer glanced at them and continued to walk with Andrew, not even offering a smile.
Things were equally as weird at lunch as they were earlier in the day. Spencer saw all of the girls and then kept walking out of the cafeteria doors, barely acknowledging them.
"What is her deal today?" Aria asked as Hanna looked down at her food.
"Who knows. I've texted her, but she hasn't responded. It's not like her."
"Well you can wait for her outside of the locker rooms, she has hockey practice after school." Emily suggested.
"Yeah, I think I'll do that."
"Hanna, what are you doing here? I need to get to practice." The brunette said coldly as she stopped outside the locker rooms.
"Spence, is something wrong? You literally haven't spoken to me at all today. That's not like you."
"Look, Hanna-I've been thinking about it a lot, and I think we need to take a break."
"What? What are you talking about, Spencer?" The blonde asked, completely confused.
"We've just been moving really fast and I think we could both benefit from a little time apart."
"Are you kidding me right now?" The blonde asked, her anger level rising steadily.
"No, I'm not. I talked about it all weekend with this girl I met at Princeton-"
"So what? I'm just not good enough for you now? Is that it?" Hanna automatically jumped to that conclusion.
"Well I wouldn't say it in those words…" Spencer said, trailing off.
"Wow. I cannot believe you right now. This is completely ridiculous. We were fine yesterday, what the hell happened?" Hanna demanded.
"I finally opened my eyes." She said cryptically before she took a few steps back and turned around, blinking the tears out of her eyes.
"So we aren't even going to talk about this some more?" The blonde shot back.
"No. I have practice." Spencer said without turning around to look at the blonde.
Hanna stormed down the hall, past Emily and Aria, whose jaws started to drop when they saw that their friend had tears in her eyes. The blonde calmly walked to her car, only breaking into tears once her seatbelt was on.
Spencer turned around so she could walk into the locker room and change into her workout clothes, desperately trying to blink the tears out of her eyes.
Three days later, nothing was resolved. Spencer was still putting on a brave face at school while Hanna laid around in sweats at home, skipping school to avoid her now ex-girlfriend. After Emily and Aria barely talked to the two at all, they decided to do something about it.
Later that night, Aria called an emergency meeting at her house, with the exception of Spencer, meaning that Hanna would be able to show up.
"Are you coming from yoga?" Emily asked once she watched Hanna walk in.
"No, home." The blonde huffed as Emily looked more confused.
"Why are you dressed like that?"
"Because, Emily, I'm too depressed to work a zipper, alright? Get over it." She barked out.
"Noted." Emily mumbled under her breath once Hanna made her way toward the couch.
"Woah, I don't think I've ever seen you wear sweats in a long time, Hanna."
"She can't work a zipper, moving on." Emily replied sharply, looking at Aria so she would get the point.
Aria had just opened her mouth to start talking when all three girls phones alerted them about a new text message.
"Great. I wonder who that is." Hanna said unhappily as she tapped her phone and started reading the message.
The three girls all frowned when they saw a picture of their best friend in a bar, doing shots next to Wren.
"It's a Thursday night, what is she doing?" Emily asked herself quietly.
A few seconds later they all received a video of Spencer sitting at the bar, smirking before she did another shot and then mumbled something unintelligible to Wren. Right when the video was ending, they saw Spencer and Wren sloppily high-5, and then watched as the brunette slowly leaned her head to rest on Wren's shoulder.
"Can you go get her please?" Hanna asked Emily quietly as she looked down at her phone, knowing the tall swimmer would have an easier time helping Spencer into a car than Aria would.
"Yeah, I'll bring her back to her house and spend the night there, my mom is in Texas and her parents are both in Philly."
"Thanks, Em." Hanna said, looking down at her water.
"Of course. Let me know if you need anything else." Emily said as she grabbed her keys and headed for the door.
"Hey Spence, what are you up to?" Emily asked as she looked at the brunette who was resting her head on the bar.
"I don't know! I don't care what I do anymore!" She said sadly as she swirled the drink her hand.
"She's been like this for a while now, Emily. She's been going back and forth between being angry and crying about Hanna. I've been trying to limit the alcohol intake, but as you can see, it hasn't really been working." Wren explained quickly.
"I can see that. Well, she's a stubborn Hastings. Come on, Spence! We're going to get you home."
"Were you just with Hanna?" She asked as soon as they were together in Emily's car.
"Yeah. Look, I don't mean to be rude, Spence, but you broke up with her, so why do you care?" Emily pointed out as Spencer started to drunkenly cry again.
"I know, I know I did. I just keep picturing the look on her face when I did it and I want to take it all back."
"So why do it in the first place?"
"I didn't have a choice." She hiccupped seconds before she passed out in the front seat of Emily's car.
"Well there goes the rest of that conversation." Emily said to herself as she started up the car and headed for Spencer's house.
After she helped Spencer upstairs and into some pajamas, Emily started looking for Spencer's phone to do some snooping.
While searching through her messages, she found absolutely nothing from 'A' on Spencer's phone.
"Well I guess I'll just have to wait for her to wake up before I get answers." Emily mumbled as she covered the passed out Spencer with a blanket.
The swimmer quickly took a picture of Spencer sleeping and sent it off to Hanna, hoping it would make the blonde feel better that she was now safe in her own home.
The next morning, Spencer stumbled downstairs, wearing a pair of huge sunglasses.
"Good morning, sunshine." Emily said as she grabbed a coffee cup for her friend.
"Please, not so loud." The brunette stated, holding onto the stair's railing and standing still for a moment.
"Well it was a good thing I gave you all that extra time to get ready for school, because you used all of it." Emily said, handing Spencer her coffee in a 'to-go' cup.
"Well I'm pretty sure that I'm still a little bit drunk or just incredibly hungover, I'm not really sure. What the hell even happened last night?"
"We can cover that on the way to school, but I do have one question to ask you now."
"Shoot…me."
"I'll take that as a 'go for it.' What's going on with you and Hanna? Why don't you just get back together with her?"
"Why would I? I broke up with her for a reason." Spencer said harshly, before she grabbed her bag and started heading to Emily's car.
