Chapter 4: Afternoon Outing With No Hanna

Spencer twirled her spoon in her cup of tea mixing the sugar. Spencer wasn't much into sweets, but today was different and she couldn't help, but start the day different would be the day she becomes friends with Toby Cavanaugh. Spencer sat in her regular seat awaiting for the other girls to show up and give them the news. On point, Aria, Emily, and Hanna walk into the Brew walking up to Spencer with smiles on their faces. I hope I am doing the right thing.

"Spencer hey did it work. Did he take the bait?" Hanna asks as if we are trying to catch him, Spencer couldn't help, but smile at Hanna's choice of words. She quickly nods making them sigh in happiness.

"I am meeting him for lunch today at 12:30, so I need you guys to keep quiet and not talk to me." Spencer tells them. Hanna shakes her head before leaning in closer.

"Spencer we aren't going to let you go and talk to Toby on your own. We are coming with you whether you like it or not." Hanna promises picking up her purse ready to leave, but Emily grabs her arm. Oh no this plan is already failing..think Spencer...think.

"Hanna we can't show up, because Toby doesn't trust anybody right now and we can't ambush him or he defiantly won't trust her." Emily reconciles with Hanna. Hanna contemplates for a couple of seconds, whether to listen to Emily or not.

"Fine, but right after this lunch date thing is over you are calling us and telling us whether or not you guys are the best of friends." Hanna teases a bit making Spencer rolls her eyes. "Oh and use your best acting moves. Make him think that you like him."

"Hanna, are you telling me to flirt with him because if you are then I am not going to. That would be wierd and uncomfortable for the both of us...so sorry Hanna Banana." Spencer says ordering another cup of sweet sugar tea.

Emily stiffs a laugh before speaking. "Spencer ordering tea this must be a different day." Emily teases making Spencer let out a sarcastic laugh.

"Ha ha yes this must be a new day considering I want tea instead of my usual." Spencer holds up her tea while talking. "Which means we have to make a toast." Spencer jokes, but keeps her very serious face on making Aria look at Hanna.

"Okay Hastings what ever you say." Aria gives in holding up her cup of coffee. Spencer starts laughing. Can't they take a small joke? Aria gives me a funny look.

"I was only joking guys drink your regulars in peace while I drink my new second favorite drink."

"Aww too bad for the tea..it's only your second favorite drink not first." Hanna comments as her raspberry red lips curved into a smile. Spencer rolls her eyes before chuckling too along with the rest of the friends.

12:00 p.m.

Spencer sat at the Brew with her textbook open studying while waiting for the arrival of Toby. Usually when Spencer arrived early she would only arrive about 10 minutes early not half an hour early like today. She knew Toby probably wouldn't be here for another 30 minutes or so, but against her thoughts...Toby was here a bit of time still left on Spencer's watch at the time of their little meeting.

She notice that he was in very deep thought when he entered the coffee shop, walking up to the Barista and ordering a coffee. Spencer smiles until he walks away from her making her frown slightly. She stood up and made her way to where he was leaving her books behind and only grabbing her coffee, her first one of day breaking several records for Spencer.

"Toby?" Spencer questions walking up to the sofa he was sitting at. Spencer looks around not even remembering this part of the Brew, even though her friends had been sitting here a couple of days ago. He looks up locking his blue eyes on her brown boring eyes. Toby looks suprised, thinking that she wouldn't be here this early. "I'm a Hastings I am early everywhere I go." she says quickly answering his confused look. He nods his head before patting the seat next to him. She looks down at the French textbook in his lap. "I see that you are studying maybe I could help you one day." She offers.

Toby shrugs his shoulders before pulling off his leather jacket and setting it down next to him and closing the textbook. "So what did you want to talk about Spencer?" Toby asks laying his hands down in his lap trying to get into a comfortable position.

"I just wanted to come here and talk about the thing that has been going on with Alison case." Spencer lies before feeling her phone buzz in her pocket, it was a text message.

Liar...and we know what happens to them. Stop lying to poor Toby and tell hin the truth. Kisses-A

Spencer gulps before looking back up into the slightly concerned blue ocean eyes. "It was my mom, she was just telling me that I need to be home by 4:00." Spencer lies before stuffing her phone back into her pocket jacker. Spencer glances back down at her phone looking very worried. Toby only grins the whole time.

"You know I can tell when someone is lying Spencer..I have gotten good at especially over these past couple of years. So tell me what is the real reason you are sittinf before me?" Toby asks again. Spencer shakes her head denying that she was lying to him.

"I am mot lying I just wanted to talk to you. I have no motive Toby." Spencer reassures him. He looks at him still not convince.

"Everybody has a reason for doing something, so what is your reason for talking to me because nobody just walks up to a guy, who is a person of interest in a murder and in your case in your bestfriends murder." Toby explains to her. Spencer shakes her head.

"She was my best friend and I never really looked at her like she was my friend. We weren't really apart of everything she was doing half of the time we didn't even know where she was or what she was doing." Spencer exclaims with anger in her voice. Toby looks at her with calming eyes.

"The only reason I was not thrown in jail was because the blood on the shirt was corrupted, so they couldn't charge me." Toby explains making Spencer smile slightly. "I think someone is trying to frame me."

"Umm...I haven't even told this to my friends, but I-I think i'm umm.." Spencer trys to explains only to feel a couple of tears cascade down her heartshaped face. "I think I am next on the person of interest listen."

Toby eyes widen before gulping. "Why you?" Toby asks scooting a little bit closer to Spencer's very tearful voice.

"There are a lot of things that add up to make me look really guilty." Spencer let's out holding her breath trying to keep her tears under control. Spencer could never imagine herself in a jail cell. She knew that once she went to jail, her parents would never like her again and she would defiantly get pushed under a bus and would never get looked at again by her parents. "Having something this big against in especially having parents like me worried about your reputation, will probably make my parents hate me even more." Spencer tells him.

He gives her another childish smile like he gave her when she ran into him earlier that morning. "I'm not going to let that happen because I am not going to let the only person who seems to believe that I didn't kill Alison go to jail." Toby says to her resting his hand onto of hers and looking around the room at the people. Spencer swallows a breath before speaking.

"Why do you say that?"

Toby laughs a bit before grabbing a hold of hee hand. "Because if you did believe I killed her you wouldn't be here." he reminds her. She smiles at him slightly before looking into his blue eyes and he did the same.
