"Hey, Spence." Ali said cheekily as she walked into the room. Spencer looked up, tears coating her face and a bunch of paper surrounding her on the bed. "Oh no, Spence, whats wrong?" Ali asked before rushing towards Spencer's side and wrapping her arms around her,
"Don't act all innocent." Spencer snarled after pushing Ali off of her. Ali stood there with a shocked and hurt look on her face.
"W-what are you talking about, Spencer?" She asked quietly.
"Jeremy?" Spencer shouted, causing Ali to cower.
"Spencer. You're scaring me." Ali whimpered.
"Nice victim act, Alison. You almost fooled me." Spencer said, standing up.
"Spencer I don't know what you're talking about. I'm sorry he cheated on you,, but that was a while ago." Ali said while walking closer to Spencer. "He wasn't a good guy, Spence."
"Oh my god! Either you're playing dumb or I overestimated you." Spencer said with a scowl.
"Spencer! This isn't you!" Ali shouted.
"You... you're the reason for all of this.. you took advantage of him..." Spencer whispered, "It was you this whole time."
"I... I never..." Ali whispered, her face crumpling. I never had seen Ali so vulnerable. "You know we both liked him, and he chose you. I couldn't help but be pissed at your magical love. Like you two were meant for each other. So I decided to prank him. Harmless. Just a prank. So I got some people to give him a lot of alcohol and mix it with some oxi, then I was going to take some incriminating pictures, show you the loser he is, but he came onto me. I didn't encourage it.
"Wow, Ali, how could you do this?" Spencer said quietly.
"I didn't mean for anything bad to happen, you have to believe me!" Ali pleaded. Spencer fell back on the bed and buried her face in the pillow.
"Get Out!" She shouted. Ali backed towards the wall.
"Please Spencer, please don't do this!" Ali pleaded, tears streaming down her face.
"Please, Ali! I don't need this! Just leave!" Spencer shouted from her place on the bed. She heard the door slam and footsteps down the stairs as Spencer cried. After everything that happened, she still loved Ali, but it hurt to look at her. She thought she and him would last forever, and honestly, most of the blame can be put on him, but it's easier to blame Ali than face the fact that Spencer wasn't good enough for him..
"Push! Gosh, Spencer, hang in there!" The doctor shouted as I opened my eyes. Everything was in slow motion and blurry. Tears dried at the bottom of my chin but were quickly replaced with fresh hot ones. I thought back to my last few minutes with Toby, how I put my faith in him, how I should've put my faith in Ali. For all I know, Ali was a wreck after she left my place, maybe I was the reason she's dead.. My head rolled back as I cried, not even noticing the pain shooting through my torso. I pushed Ali away so far... she died and I never got a chance to make it right. I heard a baby's cry and I was brought back to reality, I'm in the hospital. I just gave birth. I looked up and a slow smile greeted my tired face. A beautiful baby girl was in the doctors arms, and I got a glimpse of her smiling face before the doctor turned. I thought about the late night talks Ali and I used to have, and how we talked about things, serious and not. Her legacy lives on inside of me and everyone she's touched. I always loved the way she would pretend to be the least smart, but be battling me with our test scores. I thought about the name Toby and I talked about on the car ride. I never got to apologize, the last time I saw her was when she left my house in tears. I want to make that up to her, in any way I can.
"C-can I hold her?" I asked shakily as the nurses shuffled around the crowded hospital room.
"We just need tests done, all the trauma and whatnot." A nurse yelled over her shoulder. I slumped down in my bed and looked around helplessly.
"Can you get my friends for me?" I asked quietly. She nodded with a smile before leaving the room. A few seconds later a huge group of people filed in. Toby, Hanna, Emily, Maya, Aria, and Caleb all crowded around my hospital bed with smiles.
"Oh gosh, it's hard to believe that you created a life in that skinny stomach." Maya said with a smile.
"Did your stomach deflate like a balloon?" Hanna asked with an excited smile. I laughed and shook my head.
"Sadly no." I said. Toby was on my other side, clutching my hand.
"Hey, how are you?" He asked. I smiled and looked around.
"Really good, actually. A little sore, and numb. Like I can't feel my toes." I said before looking at Emily and Maya's interlaced fingers. "OH MY GOD ITS OFFICIAL?!" I exclaimed. Emily smile sheepishly. My smile grew ten times bigger at the thought of my friends being happy. This was the best thing I could ever ask for, all of my friends, my husband, and now my baby.
"I kind of owe you." Emily said with a smile.
"How so?" I asked as Toby kissed my knuckles.
"Seeing your strength, going through all of the drama with the baby, and Alex, and your parents, and jenna, and how you pulled through without a scratch. It inspired me." She said with a grin. "After what you went through, I didn't think my parents would be much of a problem."
"Well I'm glad to hear I helped someone." I replied.
"Whats the sex and name?" Hanna asked eagerly.
"Well," Spencer said looking around. "It's a girl!" Everyone cheered and laughed and I looked over at Toby. "Toby, I know we decided on a name, but I realized something and I was wondering if I could change it." I whispered. He nodded before I looked back at the people surrounding me. A nurse walked in as I smiled. "Meet Alison Elise Marion Cavanaugh."
I KNOW IT IS SHORT AND CRAPPY BUT I FELT HORRIBLE FOR NOT UPDATING IN FOREVER AND EVER SO HERE YOU GO, I LOVE YOU ALLLL
