Short chapter and sorry if it's crappy. I kind of had writers block while writing it.
Toby sat inside his dressing room about ready to go out for his interview with Good Morning America. He's excited yet nervous. He's done interviews before but none this big. While he was fixing up his hair, Ezra knocked on the door then came in.
"Hey," Ezra said. "You better hurry up."
"Relax I'm on in like twenty minutes."
"Good then you and me have a chance to talk."
Ezra shut the door and sat down on his footstool. Toby turned around.
"Talk about what?"
"I want to talk to you about breaking up with Spencer."
Toby's eyes narrowed, "what!? Break up with Spencer! Ezra, are you insane? I'm not breaking up with Spencer! I love her."
"I don't mean break up with her for good, I just think it would be best if you kept your relationship with her in private."
"Why?"
"Think about it, man. Spencer's a small town girl. She has a life, a family, and good friends. Once the public finds out you have a girlfriend people will start bugging her all the time. They will always follow her around. Ask her all kinds of personal questions and find out all of her secrets to ruin her life. Is that the kind of life you really want for her?"
"Well, no. I still wouldn't feel right hiding her from the public when we're together. That doesn't seem right. I'm happy with Spencer. Really happy and this could ruin things for us."
"False rumors and obsessive fans can ruin things for you."
"Ezra what you are asking me to do is hard. Spencer is already worried enough about being with me. If I hide her from the public she'll think I'm ashamed of her and I'm not."
"Spencer wasn't made to be apart of this world. Don't try to make her into something she's not. Break it off before she gets broken."
"Are you making me break up with her?"
"No," Ezra shook his head. "I'm telling you to do what's right for Spencer and for you."
There was a knock on the door and a short guy with thick brown hair poked his head in to tell Toby he's on in two minutes. Toby nodded and followed him down the hall with Ezra beside him. He thought a lot about what Ezra said, but that doesn't mean he agrees with him. How can he expect him to break up with Spencer? He's dating Aria, who is one of Spencer's best friend. How is that any better? Toby knows that people will try to cause trouble in his relationship. He also doesn't want Spencer to get hurt. What on earth is he going to do? Toby waited off stage for his name to be called. His interviewer called his name and the cameraman gave him the cue to go. Toby put on his best smile and walked out on stage. Toby settled himself on one of the stools and continued to smile at everyone.
"It is so great to have you here on the show this morning," interviewer one said.
"Thank you," Toby smiled. "Thanks for having me on today. This is such a pleasure."
"We're happy to have you here too. So, tells us a little about the album you are working on."
"Gladly. My album has a total of eight songs on it and I've been working very hard on it. It's all handwritten and I plan to have the album out by March 15th and I'm also happy to announce my first show of my tour will be in LA on April 1st."
"We're all excited for your album," interviewer two said. "I can just tell it's going to be a good one. Could you give us the title to your album?"
"Yes, the title of my album is 'Spotlight.'"
"Nice. Is it true that most of your album is based off a girl you've been seeing for a while? Like this girl right here?"
They showed a ten-second clip of Spencer and Toby singing at the talent show. The video also showed them sharing a short hug and kiss. Toby gulped and wasn't too sure what he should say about that. The video ended and everyone turned their attention on to him.
"So, does that girl mean anything to you?"
"Well, funny that you mentioned it."
After school Spencer got home to an empty house. Her mother is in New York for a case conference. Her dad already moved out and went on with his job. Toby hasn't called her at all since he left and she's starting to worry. She started her evening by making herself a salad and a glass of water. She was about to go upstairs and look up Toby's interview on Good Morning America. She didn't get a chance to see it that morning because she had school. She turned on her laptop and looked up the interview.
Interviewer 1: So, does that girl mean anything to you?
Toby: Funny that you mentioned it. That girl is very sweet. We wrote a song together for a talent show at the school we both go to. She wanted to donate money to this Orphanage, so I helped her with that.
Interviewer 2: You mean you wrote that song you two sang? That video is all over the web.
Interviewer 1: Yeah, It's a hit and my kids love it.
Toby: I really love it too and we did write it together. She wrote most of the lyrics and I wrote the music. We made a pretty great team and I'm hoping to put that song on my album.
Interviewer 1: I'm sure the fans would love that.
Interviewer 2: How is the romance in your life? What's the story there? You seemed to be very fond of that woman. I know that there have been rumors about you dating some girl that you met in Rosewood.
Toby: This is true. I'm currently in a happy relationship right now.
Interviewer 2: We would love to learn more about it, but we're running out of time here.
Interviewer 1: Thank you again for being here with us today.
Toby: Thank you so much for having me.
Interviewer 1: That's all the time we have for you today. Join us here tomorrow where we interviewed the cast of Full House in a segment we like to call 'Where Are They Now?'
Spencer shut off her computer after watching that. Toby seemed pretty excited about their song being on his album, which is why she's reconsidering his offer to feature on his album. Maybe it won't be so bad and people really seem to love their song. She would talk to him about it if he would just call her like he said he would. He's coming home tonight, so she'll go over there. At 9 o'clock, Spencer went over to his apartment, but he wasn't there. She knocked on his door several times, but he never answered. She tried calling him and he didn't answer. Now she's really worried. She ended up sitting outside his apartment waiting for him to get home.
"Spencer."
She woke up to a slight nudge on her shoulder. Her eyes opened and Toby appeared in front of her. It's almost 11. She must have fallen asleep waiting for him. She stood up instantly.
"Hi."
"What are you doing here?" He asked.
"I thought you would be home by 9, so I came over, but you weren't here, so I just waited for you."
"My plane got delayed an hour."
"You never called me either," she said sadly. "Should I be worried?"
"No."
"Look, I know when I'm not wanted and that's the vibe I'm getting from you right now. If you don't want me here and don't want to be with me anymore then just come right out and say it…"
Toby cut her off by crashing his lips on to hers. Spencer was stunned at first and almost stumbled backwards. She balanced herself by wrapping her arms around him. Toby ran his hands up her body and held her face. Toby unlocked the door behind them while they kissed and lead them inside. As soon as the door shut, Spencer tore her lips away from his to take off his shirt. He allowed her to lift his shirt up over his head then let it drop to the floor. Their lips met again and Toby started guiding her back towards the couch. They collapsed on it the couch Spencer lying on top of Toby. Toby's hands ran down her waist and gripped on to her hips. Spencer stopped kissing his lips and moved her kisses to his collarbone. Toby moaned and felt his eyes begin to tear up. He almost forgot what he was suppose to do.
"I can't do it," he said to himself.
Spencer must have heard him, because she pulled back. She cupped his face and ran her thumbs down the sides of his face.
"Do what?" She asked.
He shook his head," I can't do it." He brushed his fingers through her hair and down her face. "I just can't do it. I-I love you so much."
She smiled, "I love you too, but what can't you do?"
He sighed and avoided eye-contact, "I'm suppose to break up with you."
Spencer looked at him in shock. He kept his gaze on the floor and on the wall. Anywhere that way he wasn't looking her in the eye. Spencer pushed herself against his chest and sat up.
"You're breaking up with me?"
"No," he shook his head. "Ezra told me that I should break up with you, but I don't want to. I can't do it. Spencer, I'm in love with you. Breaking up with you just because my stupid manager doesn't like me being with you is not a good enough reason."
"Ezra wants us to break up. Why?"
"He claims to think that this life wouldn't work out for you. Ezra kept saying that you would get chased off by the fans, but Ezra has always been controlling. He's always wanted me to date some other big celebrity to help me keep a 'good image', but I'm happy with you, Spencer," he takes her hands. "Really happy and I don't want to lose you."
She leans her forehead against his, "I don't want to lose you either, but are you sure you want to be with me? What if this does ruin your image."
"Ruin it?" He chuckled. "Look around, Spencer. Every since you've walked into my life everythings been better for me. Ezra just doesn't see that. We sang a song live together and most people have been pretty respectful. I've already thought long and hard about this and I'm not breaking up with you."
She smiled softly, "are you sure?"
He smiled back and said, "yes."
"Good. Now," she takes off her shirt and smirks. "Where were we?"
She giggles as Toby lays her back and starts kissing her again. Things seem happy and easy for them now, but will things always be like this? They just need to enjoy their happiness while it lasts.
Again, sorry if this was bad. Do you think Spoby's relationship will run smoothly or will things get out of hand? Next chapter Spencer will confront Aria about Ezra's opinion on her relationship. Thanks for reading and don't forget to review and tell me how crappy this chapter was. Again, sorry.
