Spencer (P.O.V)
Spencer (P.O.V)
I walk out of the bathroom for the third time today, from crying. I don't know why this time that Toby brought a girl to the table affected me this badly. Maybe it's because he already asked me out. But I shot him down, so it is probably my own fault.
I am walking home because Noel has football practice and I was waiting for Toby but he isn't here. My brothers usually prefer that I walk with Toby because if something happens they know how overprotective Toby could be of me, just like them. He starts running up to me, breathlessly.
"Spencer. Will. You go. Out. With. Me?" He asks between breaths. Is he serious right now? I was hoping he would get a hint and drop the subject. I roll my eyes and keep walking. He follows me.
"What is with you Spencer? Every time I ask you out, you get super pissed and walk away."
I don't answer. I just keep walking. Eventually he gently grabs my arm, basically forcing me to look at him.
"Listen. Jenna told me about how you are whenever I am with a new girl. I get that. I really like you, and I have ever since you tutored me in French. Hanna told me that you like me too, so what is the problem? Why won't you go out with me?"
That's it, I can't take this anymore. I tell him to wait until we get home. We walk in awkward silence. Whenever he tried to walk closer to me, I would move faster.
We get home, and Jason is at work so we have the house to ourselves.
"So what is it? Like I said I really-"
I interrupt him.
"God damn it Toby! Why would you do this to me?" I yell suddenly.
"This is what I'm talking about! You won't tell me what I am doing wrong!"
"You are asking me out, that's the problem! I have seen you do some terrible things to a lot of people. Stringing them along, letting them think they are different, and then dumping them a couple of days later! But, I have stuck by you. I would listen to your latest conquest! But, I always thought you had a limit. I thought I was that limit! But no, you are doing the same thing to me as you have to the sluts that you've been going out with, and you know very well that when you dumped me I would take it and just smile and tell you it's okay. I wouldn't have the heart to be mad at you!"
"Spencer, you should know by now that you aren't like those other girls. I don't really give a shit about them. I care about you! How could you think that I would go on a date with you and then leave you?"
He steps closer, trying to hold my hand, but I take my hand away from his.
"You could simply say, 'I wouldn't want to destroy our friendship'. Then I would just smile and pretend to agree, while on the inside it would kill me!"
"Spence, just give me a chance!"
"No! For all I know, this could just be another one of your stupid plays!" I storm upstairs, and go to my room, locking the door behind me.
Aria (P.O.V)
I walk into Spencer's house, to see Toby sitting on the couch, grumpily watching T.V, flipping through the channels, practically jabbing at the remote. I hear soft crying upstairs, and I automatically say, "Toby, what did you do?"
"What makes you think I did something? Hello to you too."
"I hear Spencer crying, something she rarely does."
"I tried comforting her, but she told me to go away."
"What did you do?"
"Nothing! I asked her out and she got pissed."
"Oh my god, you are an idiot!" I went upstairs and knocked on Spencer's door.
"Spence? It's me. Can I come in?" She doesn't answer, so I just walk in.
She is currently sobbing. I close the door behind me and sit beside her on her bed.
"I know what happened. Are you okay?"
Her face is burried in her pillow, and she shakes her head no.
"Listen, Toby is really worried about you. He is upset."
"Let him be." She replies. I rub her back as she keeps sobbing. She calms down enough to say, "I never thought he would do that to me."
"Well, Spencer, maybe he does like you. Maybe he does want a relationship with you."
"I know how he works. He just wants to take me out on a date and then dump me. Boys suck."
"I know. He is really confused."
"I explained to him why I'm upset."
"Well, Toby is an idiot. I am going to get you some ice cream."
I leave the room and go to the kitchen. Toby is in the same place. He asks me, "Is she okay?"
"Why don't you go see for yourself? I left the door unlocked." I say with a wink.
His face lightens a little and he goes upstairs.
Toby (P.O.V)
I walk into Spencer's room. I sit beside her but she doesn't look up from her pillow.
"Did you really get ice cream that fast?" I hear her say in between sniffles.
"I don't have ice cream but I do have an apology." I say.
She lifts her head and glares at me. "Get out." She whines. I chuckle at her cuteness.
"I am really sorry Spencer. However, this might not mean much to you, but I really do like you. I want to be with you. I am telling the truth but I wouldn't blame you not to believe me."
She places her hand on mine and says, "Toby, I want to believe that you don't just want one date. I just heard you say that too much to too many girls. I have heard it from you before, so I really don't know what to believe."
I lean up to her ear and say, "I will prove to you that I can change."
Aria walks in with two bowls of ice cream.
She gives one to Spencer, and when I think she is about to give me one, she eats it for herself.
"Hey! How come I don't get one?"
"It's because you're you." Aria says.
Spencer reaches into her dresser and pulls out a box of plastic spoons and gives me one.
I am not going to even ask why she has them because I want ice cream.
"Here. We can share." Spencer tells me. Across from us I see Aria smirk.
Two days later
I decide to try something. I am going to ask Spencer out in every way possible so she can see that I really want a realationship with her.
In a class that we share together, I am sitting next to her. I wrote a note that says, "Would you like to go out with me? Maybe a movie?" and I give it to her. She chuckles, rolls her eyes, and writes back,
"Anna, 10th grade, remember? Then, you forgot about your movie date with her because you were studying with me." Oh right, I already did that.
The next day, I show up to her locker with a rose, but she looks me in the eyes and says, "Denice, two months ago, you took her to the Valentines day dance, and then spent most of the night hanging out with me."
The day after, I send her flowers, and instead of teasing me about how I already did that for a girl, she tears up and says, "That is what Wren did." But, she wipes away her tears and says, "And you did that for Amanda six months ago."
I don't pay attention to the last part, just about Wren. I never knew why they broke up, not that I'm complaining. But, whatever happened must have been bad because she usually gets pretty tense whenever something reminds her of Wren.
I left it alone until now, because I need to find out.
