Poor Spence…

Spencer drove to a bar outside of Rosewood. She sat on her own for a while before a familiar face walked in the door.

Samara took a seat across from Spencer in the booth. Smiling warmly, Samara took off her jacket.

"So, how drunk do I have to get you to help you get over this?" Spencer smiled weakly, "Thanks for coming" "I told you it's not a problem. Now, I'm going to get us some drinks so this meeting of Emily's Anonymous can commence". Spencer laughed as Samara ordered two beers "Beer? Really?" asked Spencer.

"Yeah, got a problem with it?" "No, I just thought we'd be drinking something a little…stronger" said Spencer shaking her head.

"Got to start off somewhere and I want us to forget our problems, not forget where we left our cars". "I don't think I'll be driving after this" said Spencer raising her bottle.

"Then cheers to Cabs!" said Samara clinking her bottle against Spencer's.

LINE BREAK

"Do you think she'll ever get over this? Us?" asked Emily playing with Melissa's fingers, while her legs were across Melissa's lap. The two girls were sitting on the couch in front of the fire.

"Eventually, I hope" Emily frowned, "I don't want to lose her. She's my best friend" Melissa stopped playing with Emily's hand, "I'm sorry, for putting you in this situation, I really am, but I can't help how I feel for you. I love you".

Emily intertwined her fingers in Melissa's, "It's not your fault. None of it is. Sure, it didn't help when you slapped her, but I fell in love with you. So if anyone's at fault, it's me".

Melissa smiled. "What?" asked Emily "Even after everything I've done, you're still protecting me, just like you did that first time we…"

Emily's cheeks turned a blooming red pallor. Melissa raised her palm to Emily's face and rubbed her cheek with her thumb, "She'll be fine. Spencer's strong, and if anyone can bounce back from something like this, it's her".

Emily's head dropped, "She's not as strong as you give her credit for". "I understand you're worried about her, but she will get over it because she loves you".

Emily's head shot up and stared at Melissa. "Don't look so alarmed, she does love you. You're her best friend. She loves you as you love her, and no matter what happens that will always be. So yes, she will get over this".

Emily's eyes grew weak and a smile grew on her face, "I love you, so, much" and she leaned in and kissed Melissa with every loving emotion she had. Emily knew that Melissa was right, and that meant she had nothing to feel bad about.

Everything was finally starting to look up. Emily finally felt safe.

As Melissa and Emily got more intimate, Emily's phone beeped. Ignoring it, Emily continued on with Melissa.

It's all very nice and well when things work out, isn't it? It would be a shame for something or, someone, to spoil everything –A

So I'm sorry it took me so long to put up the last chapter, but things were a bit busy, and then I was just lazy, so I apologize. I also want to thank everyone for their great reviews and support. The story wouldn't have been as long as it was if it wasn't for you driving me on. I'm currently working on another fic which should be up soon, so stay tuned, because it's not the last of me.

Thanks a lot everyone! -E
