Hey everyone! I am so sorry that this chapter has taken so long to post. I've just had writers block and couldn't figure out how I should write this chapter. Thanks for reading. Please review, follow, and favorite!

Spencer heard the timer go off in the kitchen, knowing the tests were ready the girls both got up at the same time to look at their tests. Spencer couldn't bring herself to look at the results, but Aria could. Spencer suddenly heard a high-pitchedscream from her friend.
Using Aria as an excuse to not look at her results, Spencer looked over at her to see what was wrong.
"Are you..." Spencer began to say but was quickly cut off by Aria.
"Spencer, I'm not pregnant!" Aria exclaimed.
Sure it was a little mean to be glad that there was no tiny baby inside Aria, but Spencer was happy for her friend.
"Are you pregnant?" Aria inquired in a much softer voice.
"I'm not sure. I can't bring myself to look at the results." Spencer admitted.
"Do you want me to look for you?" Aria suggested.
"Yes please." Spencer murmured.
Spencer sat down on the sofa and curled herself up in a ball. She saw Aria reach over and grab the little sticks. Spencer buried her face in her hands, she couldn't watch.
"Spencer, I can't tell." Aria muttered in a pained tone of voice.
Spencer looked up, slightly shocked.
"What?" Spencer asked.
Aria sat down on the sofa and gave her a big hug.
"One stick is positive, one is negative." Aria responded.
"Well if you are pregnant, would you know who the father is?" Aria politely asked.
The father. Spencer hadn't thought about who the father would be. If the baby was Caleb's then then he would be really angry with her, so would Hannah. If it was Toby's baby, Spencer didn't know what to think. For all she knew, she didn't even have a small baby inside of her.
"The baby is either Caleb's or Toby's, if there even is a baby. Please don't tell Hannah or Yvonne." Spencer said, looking at her friend. She was a little disappointed to see shock on her face.
Spencer heard a little gasp from her friend.
"When did all of this happen?" Aria asked
"I was with Caleb last night and the night before was Toby. Both times I was super drunk. Ugh, I sound like such a slut." Spencer admitted.
"Isn't Toby engaged?" Aria inquired.
"Yes, he is. And I am one of Yvonne's bridesmaids." Spencer muttered.
"When did that happen?" Aria asked.
"Yesterday. It's a long story." Spencer sighed.
Spencer suddenly heard a random range of beeps and realized that it was Aria's phone.
"Shit Spencer. I have to go. Ezra needed me to sign some papers for the book since he is gone and I have to go sign them now. Normally I would reschedule but it was the only time I could get a notary for the next two weeks." Aria said as she gave
Spencer a hug and walked towards the door.
"That's okay. Thanks for buying the tests." Spencer responded.
"Good Luck!" Aria yelled and then closed the door.
After Aria left, Spencer didn't really know what to do. The love of her life was getting married in twelve days, and she could be pregnant either his baby, his best friend's baby, or have no baby at all. Spencer knew that first she would have to schedule an appointment with her OB-GYN to find out if she really was pregnant. If she was she didn't know what she would do. For some odd reason Spencer suddenly remembered that in order to do a paternity test on a baby while it was still in it's mother's womb the baby had to be at least eight weeks old. Spencer didn't even have two weeks to wait
In order to calm down Spencer began to tidy up the barn. Then she heard a knock at the door. Spencer immediately walked over to the door to grab it.
"Hey." Toby said, running his fingers through his hair.
"Hi, what are you doing here?" Spencer asked while ushering Toby inside. They both sat down on the sofa. Spencer was immediately glad that she had put the pregnancy tests in the drawer of her nightstand.
"I came to talk, like really talk." Toby responded, shifting his position on the couch uncomfortably.
"Good idea." Spencer commented, unsure whether or not to burden Toby with the news or not.
"I talked with Caleb. He told me about last night." Toby said, not knowing how Spencer would react.
"I'm sorry Toby. Taylor spiked my drink, then the girls apparently set me up with Caleb." Spencer rushed out.
"Its alright. I was pretty pissed at Caleb and Yvonne when I heard. But I know that we are not actually together, so I guess I'll have be okay with it." Toby admitted. "I'm still mad though."
Spencer leaned over to hug him."Tobes, you know that I would never sleep with him on purpose, I was super drunk, I'm so sorry. I'm never getting drunk at a bar again." Spencer guiltily responded.
"Okay." Toby said while pulling away from her hug to get up. "You want a coffee? I'm really thirsty so I hope you don't mind if I raid your stash."
"Sure." Spencer responded without thinking. Then she remembered the pregnancy tests in her room, and the reason that she didn't want to ever be pregnant.
"Actually, no." Spencer said. Toby looked up from the coffee maker, wondering why such a coffee addict would ever reject her coffee.
"Toby, there is something I need to tell you. I might be pregnant." Spencer admitted, unable to look Toby in the eye.
Spencer jumped at the sound of Toby dropping the coffee mug that he had been holding. He turned around with disbelief in his beautiful blue eyes.
"What did you just say?" Toby murmured.
"I might be pregnant Toby." Spencer repeated.
"Well did you take a test?" Toby asked. Ignoring the shattered glass he walked over to where Spencer was sitting and knelt down in front of her.
"Yes, one said positive, one said negative." Spencer muttered, unable to look him in the eye.
"Spencer look at me. Its all going to be okay. There might not even be anything to worry about, you might not even be pregnant." Toby said reassuringly while brushing his hand along her cheekbone.
"But Toby, what if I am pregnant? What are we going to do?" Spencer asked.
"Well Spencer we will cross that bridge when we come to it but the baby could be Caleb's, remember?" Toby asked.
"Okay, I'll call my doctor." Spencer muttered.
"And I'll clean up the glass." Toby said, standing up from his crouch.
"Toby, can you come to the doctor with me?" Spencer guiltily asked.
"Spencer, you know I would but I also have a fiancee at home. Would you mind just calling me?" Toby responded.
"Okay." Spencer said, slightly disappointed that Toby couldn't come with her.
Later that day Spencer arrived at her OB-GYN. After she checked in she mindlessly flipped through magazines. Five minutes later she heard her name and was directed to room number two.
After a stressed looking nurse took her vitals the doctor walked in.
"Hello Ms. Hastings. I'm Dr. Altman." The woman said. She was a tall, pale, blonde, with grey streaks in her hair.
"Hi." Spencer responded, wondering where her regular doctor was.
"Dr. Altman, I don't mean to be rude but I was wondering, where is Dr. Johnson, my regular doctor?" Spencer asked.
"Oh, the receptionist didn't tell you? Dr. Johnson passed about five months ago. She had breast cancer, but she didn't like to spread the news. I guess for some reason you didn't get called." Dr. Altman said.
"Oh, I'm so sorry. Will you be my doctor from now on?" Spencer asked.
"Well unless you decide to change practices, then yes I will be." Dr. Altman responded.
"Now I read in your charts that you wanted to get a test done for pregnancy?" Dr. Altman asked while sitting down at the small desk in the room.
"Yes. I took two tests at home and one was positive and the other was negative so I was hoping you would be able to help." Spencer responded.
The doctor handed Spencer another test and Spencer went to take it. Since the test was more advanced than the store bought kind it took ten minutes to gather the results. Dr. Altman had gone to another room to finish up with another patient so Spencer was all alone in the small doctors office. Instead of just sitting there Spencer decided to go through some old pictures on her phone. She couldn't believe that she had so many pictures of her and Toby, and that she kept them all after they broke up. She started to tear up at some of the more sentimental pictures of the two of them.
Before Spencer could begin to really cry the doctor walked in with an unreadable expression on her face.
"Spencer, I have the results. You are pregnant." Dr. Altman said.
After hearing the news, Spencer broke down. While trying to keep herself from shedding her tears, she quietly excused herself from the office and ran to her car. It was there that she really started to cry. She didn't know what to do. So she just drove.
About an hour later Spencer was sitting at the motel where she and Toby had their first kiss. Toby had called her twice, and she just let it go to voicemail. Spencer knew that it was just a matter of time before Toby told Caleb and then he would probably track her phone here. She really didn't care. So Spencer decided to just lay on the same bed that her and Toby shared on the night that their whole relationship started.
It had been a long seven years, filled of pain and misery. But even the fear that she had felt in the doll house was not equivalent to what she was feeling now. When she was in the doll house, she knew that she would never be alone. Even if her friends hated her after they left that torture house, she knew that she would always have a safe place to land just outside of those walls. Right in Toby's arms.
But now she didn't have anywhere to land. Toby was stuck with Yvonne. She wished he wasn't. Spencer thought about how she did love Caleb, but it was nothing compared to what she had with Toby. Besides, he had Hanna. Marco... Marco was a different story. Sure she liked him and all, but he wasn't really for her
Toby was meant for her, and that was all that she was sure of. The baby could be Toby's or Caleb's. Hell, for all she knew the baby could be some random guy's from a swimming pool accident. She was so done with everything, so she just fell asleep.
Thank you all for reading my story, I promise you that more is on the way. I know that Spencer being able to have a test done and see that she was pregnant only one/two days after having sex was a bit unrealistic, but I think that the story will make more sense this way.
I had an idea for a new story that would take place in season three, after Spencer and Toby had sex for the first time. She finds out that Toby is A, she gets pregnant, and so on. Of course, I will finish this story before starting the next one :)
I will try to get an update out by this weekend, but I can't promise anything. I just had really bad writers block these past few weeks and all of a sudden, POOF! I can write again. Hopefully that doesn't happen again! If I have a total of 35 reviews on this story by this weekend, I will try really hard to update. If not, you might have to wait until next week.
And as always, please review, like, follow, and keep reading!
