Spencer's POV:
I woke up today at around 6am and I immediately reached down to feel my wrist, the cuts were still there, it was not a dream.
I was about to throw on a short sleeve shirt but I remembered I will be with my friends at school today and they can not see behind my mask, so I threw on a long sleeve shirt and a jacket of Toby's. From outside I heard the horn of Toby's truck indicating that it was time I go to school, I tried to get out the door before my family noticed me but I was too slow.
"Spencer it is 100 degrees outside! Why are you wearing long sleeves?" I heard my mother bark at me.
"Since when do you care about me?" I asked her with no emotion in my voice, if I had learned on thing from this family it was never show emotion.
"I don't! What I do care about is our family's reputation, how might our neighbors act when they see you wearing this odd shirt and your stupid boyfriend's jacket?" My mother snapped.
I scoffed at my mother's rude comment and began to walk out the door, making fun of me was one thing after all I did know a way out, but making fun of the love of my life was another thing, he is my rock and support and there is no way that I will lose him!
I knew Toby was waiting for me so I faked a smile and hopped into his truck.
"Hey sweetie!" Toby exclaimed when I hopped into his truck following his greeting with a kiss.
"Hey babe," I said trying to hide my emotions from the conversation I just had with my mother.
"I was thinking that maybe we could ditch school today and go back to my place," Toby suggested.
"Toby that sounds amazing, but I have a really big test in french today." I say with a pout on my face.
"Thats fine, as long as you stay over for the whole weekend," Toby bargained with me, as he began to drive in the direction of my school.
" I would love to stay over this weekend! How about you pick me up from school today and then we can just go straight to your place," I suggested.
"Sounds like a plan! But wait Spence won't you need clothes?" Toby asked me as he pulled up in front of the school building.
" I'm sure I will find something to wear at your place!" I said without leaving any room to argue, although I know he won't because believe it or not I know that he secretly loves it when I wear his clothes.
Time skip
After 2 agonizing periods of math and then 2 agonizing periods of french I finally got to go to see my friends, the only bad part about this situation is I am going to see them during lunch and I am positive they will know something is up if I do not eat.
I arrive in the lunch room about 2 minutes later and I find my friends sitting at our usual table, I walk up to the table and sit down but no one notices me! I begin to feel that my parents are right, maybe no one actually cares about me… nobody except for Toby.
"Yea he was being a total jerk about it like he didn't have to use that voice with me, he just did! I hear my small friend complain as she pokes around in her salad.
"What happend?" I ask in mock concern, still aggravated by the fact that they did not even notice me until now.
"Oh hey Spence!" the 3 girls say very distantly, were they getting sick of me? Why are they being distant?
Right before I leave lunch, I feel someone grab my arm, I immediately spin around to see Emily standing behind me with a concerned look on her face…
"Spencer are you okay, you did not eat lunch and you seemed really distant," Emily said with concern in her voice.
That was it, I am so done with people blaming everything on me!
"Me distant? No, that is completely false! You are the people being distant, not even noticing my presence until I have to speak up!" I roar at Emily as tears form in my eyes.
"Spencer- wait!" I hear Emily call, flabbergasted, as I run into the closest girls bathroom.
I knew there was no way that I could stay in this building any longer so first I pull a razor blade out of my pocket and make a few cuts on my wrists, relieving me, and then I pick up my phone and dial Toby's number.
"Hey Spence, is everything okay?" Toby asks me right when he picks up, due to me calling this early in the school day.
"Umm- no not really. Me and the girls got in a fight and I-I really need you r-right now" I say, when I spoke those last few words my voice cracked and I began to cry.
"Hey baby don't cry! I am leaving my house now and in about 5 minutes I will be there to hold you." Toby reassures me.
God he is so sweet, I defiantly do not deserve him, he could do so much better then ugly old me!
About 5 minutes had passed, so I finally get up the courage to walk outside, when I get outside I see Toby's tan truck pull up in the parking lot. When Toby gets out of his car I immediately run over to him and jump into his arms.
"Thank you for coming," I mumble into Toby's chest.
"Any thing for you my love," Toby replies as he lifts me up and gently sets me in his truck.
Even though he only lives five minutes away I still manage to drift off in the car.
