Thank you for the couple of reviews I got that motivated me to write another chapter. I have plenty of ideas how I am going to end this story, but I think I already have the most perfect one in mind. Okay well let's get started. I promised 2k and that's what your going tobelle I probably won't give you guys an update until later in the day tomorrow.
Chapter 5: Tutoring The Blue Eyes
The day had been going smoothly so far as the group of friends met at Emily's house, considering Toby's house was next door and her parents weren't currently located in this area. Spencer sat on the farthest seat away from her friends with her right leg crossed over her left one. She sips her coffee while listening to her friends bicker over the latest news at school. Emily eyes finally settle on Spencer. "Hey Spence how did your date with Toby go?" Emily asks with a small grin plastered on her face.
Spencer sighs. "It wasn't a date Em. It was more like a m-"
Hanna cuts Spencer off short letting out a small laugh before talking. "It was a date either way Spencer it was one. You may not admit to it being a date, but since we are your friends we can tell when our friend went on a date. So...how did this 'friendly chat' go?" Hanna asks.
Spencer uncrosses her legs before standing up and throwing away her cup of coffee that was empty. "I think I am going to go." Spencer awkwardly says to them before grabbing her purse.
"Wait...Spencer." Aria begs a bit before continuing. "We were only kidding Spencer we all know that it wasn't a date."
Spencer rolls her eyes and takes a seat next to the petite brunette again. The young woman rolls her shoulders back feeling increasingly stressful. Aria puts a hand on Spencer's shoulder, rubbing it slightly. "Okay we really want to know what actually happened did he take the bait?" Aria questions turning her direction onto Spencer now. Spencer nods her head.
"Good...but you need to do something else to gain his trust. Umm..." Hanna thinks for a moment muttering a couple of words to herself. Emily snaps her fingers together thinking of something.
"Maybe you could tu-" Emily think of before she cut off by the blonde. Emily has agitation written all over her face.
"Maybe you should try dating him or something because if you get close enough to his heart, then maybe he will tell you all of his secrets." Hanna exclaims with excitement and a big giant smile plastered on her heart shaped face. Spencer hits her face with her palm shaking her head.
"Han!" Spencer yells getting her murmuring friend from her thoughts. "Why would I want to get close to the potential killer?" Spencer asks lacing her hands together and making her eyebrow turn into a curve. "I have to say this is probably a very dangerous thing just talking to the guy...not knowing what he could have possibly done."
Emily stands up with an angry look on her face. "Okay everybody I am going to day this once and only once. Toby is a nice guy..I have been hanging out with him lately and I have to day that he is probably the nicest guy out there. He wouldn't even hurt a fly if he got the chance. I would like it if my friends don't judge my other friend that you guys don't even know." Emily snaps at them before ushering them out of her house. "Next time you guys come over here..at least say you have met him." Emily tells them before shutting the door behind them.
"Great." Spencer murmurs. "I have one friend that hates me and a family that thinks I killed Alison. Just great." Spencer covers her face with her hands while shaking her head. Aria scratches the back of her neck before comforting her friend, by pulling her into a hug. A kind friendly hug.
"Spencer its going to be okay...we are going to make sure that the police doesn't arrest you for something that you obviously didn't do. We will be here every step of the way." Aria reassures her. Hanna smiles at Aria before rubbing Spencer's back too.
"Yeah Spencer I am even here too. We all need to stick together no matter what...even if you called my plan dumb." Hanna chuckles. "At least you don't have some guy living down in your basement."
This makes Aria and Spencer's head snaps up. Gaining their attention. "What guy?" Spencer asks with curiosity. Hanna pushes her hands through her hair.
"I kinda picked up a stray off the side of the street because he didn't have any place to live, so I felt bad for him. He is also pretty cute." Hanna goes on about the guy. Aria makes a small gesture.
"And...?" Aria asks. Hanna gives her a confused look.
"What?"
"Oh come on Hanna what's the guys name, so we can hunt down this guy and tell him that our fashionista has a crush on him." Spencer teases a bit. Hanna smiles a bit. "Okay fine we won't bother you, but I think I am going to go next door, so see you guys later."
...
"I still don't get this." Toby exclaims with aggravation cleary in his voice. Spencer had came over a couple of hours ago to talk to Toby, only it turned into a little tutor session. Spencer chuckles a bit as Toby put the palm of his hand onto his cheek and letting it slide down his cheek bone touching his jaw. He sighs and throws his pencil down.
"Toby." Spencer laughs a bit. "You aren't going to get this stuff in one night...it takes months or even years to figure out this entire language.
"Spencer you can joke all you want about taking time to learn this..when you probably learned how to say everything in one night." Toby jokes a bit. Spencer rolls her eyes.
"Actually I have been learning French since the fifth grade...but I catch on really quick. I promise when you have an amazing tutor like me you will learn pretty fast." Spencer tells him before writing a couple of things down in french.
A silence comes between the two for a couple of seconds before Spencer breaks it this time. "So Emily told me the two of you are really good friends.." Spencer says to him. He nods his head looking at the notes Spencer had wrote out and wjat he wrote out.
"Yeah me and Emily became great friends, but I think she only became my friend because I am her science partner. It feels good to know that someone actually wants to talk to me without trying to get information." Toby trails on before looking at Spencer as she leaned down to write more things down. Her looks at her dark brown waves that were perfectly done like everybody else in the Hastings family. "Hows your home life?" Toby asks.
"Horrible...why?" Spencer asks looking into Toby's ocean blue eyes that any girl would fall for if they got to know Toby. Toby shakes his head and the smiles at her. Spencer reads through the smile and reaches over to grab Toby's hand. She feels an electric pulse go through her arm making her whole entire face light up. She felt a couple of butterflies in the pit of her stomach when he got a little bit closer to her.
Spencer leaned away a little bit as a car went by. "Well I guess we should probably wrap this up...since my horrible parents are going to home, but even if I wasn't there they wouldn't care." Spencer mumbles as a tear falls out of her mocha eyes and cascades down her medium colored skin. Toby smiles before wipping away her tear.
"Why wouldn't your parents care that your gone. I am sure they would start crying if their perfect Hastings girl wasn't home." Toby assures her. Spencer shakes her head before standing really fast making Toby confused. More tears come down her face after she heard Toby's words.
"No they wouldn't care and to them I am not perfect at all...I make the Hastings look bad. Everytime my parents go to the store or something when we were smaller, they would always bring Melissa. When I would ask to come they would take one look at me and shake their heads. When I am around them I feel like an outcast, they also make me feel that way." Spencer admits to Toby before covering her face with her hands and pressing her fingers into her eyes until she saw darkness only, slightly hearing shuffling next to her. "I'm sorry maybe I shouldn't be here anymore.." Spencer started walking to her car before feeling someone grab ahold of her hand and turning her around.
"Please stay I would feel bad if I made you go to this horrible place you call home..not that my place is any better. Actually in some ways my house could probably be in the top ten list of the most horrible homes ever. So...I am asking you to please stay." Toby begs a bit curling his hand around her own. Spencer nods her head before sitting on the steps again with Toby next to her.
"Soo tell me something in French to make sure you learned something?" Spencer asks him with a smile. He grins before leaning close to her ear.
"Tu es belle." Toby whispers gently in her ear, making Spencer smile to herself. She felt a little bit of redness come to her cheeks only she looks him in his blue ocean eyes.
"Vous n'êtes pas vous-même mauvaise." Spencer whispers back at him. He raises an eyebrow. Spencer chuckles knowing he didn't get what she was saying. "Oh I completely forgot I got you something while I was in the book storw yesterday."
Toby put a hand in front of her face. "You didn't need to get me anything Spence." Toby tells her. Spencer shakes her head before pulling out a book and setting it in Toby's lap. "L'Attrape-cœurs?" Toby questions opening the book and turning the first couple of pages. "The Heart Catcher?" Toby asks.
"Actually its the Catcher in the Rye." Spencer says. "I have seen you read it before and sometimes when you have read english version it can help when you read another language...well since we are leaning French." Spencer tells him. She suddenly feels a warm feeling go through her body when his lips connect with hers. Its feels like the puzzle in her heart is finally complete. When he does pull away she still feels the warm feeling on her lips.
He sets his forehead against hers while he catches his breath. "I wasn't expecting that." Spencer tells him while taking a deep breath and smiling at him.
"Me neither." he let's out before leaning away from her and giving her a boyish smile. "I have to say Hastings are good at multiple things including kissing." Toby jokes before standing up. Toby jumps a bit when he hears a window slam shut indicating that someone had been watching them the whole time. Toby takes a big gulp before turning to Spencer again. "I'm sorry, but that kinda means you have to go, but thanks for the book Spence." Toby tells her before trotting back into the house leaving a breath less Spencer behind.
Spencer was driving in her car pulling up into her driveway still trying to get over the amazing kiss. The whole entire time all she felt was shock waves going through her body, when he was kissing her. Going over to his house today, the kiss would have been the last thing she expected from him. Spencer had to say that she wouldn't take a thing back.
...
I think I may have rushed the kiss a bit, but I hope you still liked it. I know I told you about 10 chapters until kiss, but I lied once again. I hope the kiss was everything a Spoby fan would dream about and this time I updates so I knew I had to give you something amazing in this chapter. So I did this instead. Okay well I decided the the first 3 people to comment on this chapter get a sneak peek for the next chapter...if your a guest leave an email of something. I will make sure the sneak peek is about 400 to 500 words. Since my parents are going on vacation soon. I won't be able to update everyday. Like maybe every other day until I can get back on my own time zone. 5 reviews before updating again.
