Unconditional - Spobys Story

You Again

Spencer's POV:

As I storm out of the Brew, my phone buzzes in my pocket.

Hey Spence, we should really catch up today. It's been so long and I have some new to tell you. Please come round, it's important.

-Ali x

Trying to get Toby off my mind, I get in my car and drive off to Ali's.

Alison's POV:

I'm still mourning over my Dad's death. After my Mom had gone, things were different, until I felt a special connection with Dad, and now he's gone too. I miss my friends, but atleast I have Emily here with me. She left work early just for me.

"Everything will be okay, Ali. You'll get through it." Em comforts. I'm so glad she's back.

"Yea," I tell her, leaning in for a kiss.

Spencer's POV:

I knock at Alison's door. It feels strange coming here after 5 years, but I'm hoping my reunion with Ali will be smoother than my last 'catch up.' I can feel my stomach fluttering, what is the news. It obviously wasn't good, but then again, no news is good news. The door opens.

"Ali!" I hug her.

"Spence!" I notice her eyes looked damp.

"I know we should talk, but I need to know what's wrong, have - have you been crying?"

"Come in" she pulls a forced smile.

I walk inside, things still look the same when I left. Together we walk upstairs and enter her 'Alison DiLaurentis' styled bedroom.

Emily's POV:

It's great to see Spencer again, properly this time. I still don't get what happened between her and Toby this morning, there was obvious tension. Spence looked angry and Toby looked worried, but I'm sure it's nothing. Anyway, we're here for Ali.

"Spence!" I stand up and smile. I don't think she saw me earlier. "I've missed you!"

"You too!" We share a quick hug.

Alison's POV:

It's great to see them, but I need to tell her about my father.

"Spencer," I slowly start tearing up, "it's my dad, he's, he died."

She sits down next me and holds my hand. After a few minutes of discussing and crying, Emily and I share a moment, and she reaches for my hand and we lightly kiss.

Spencer's POV:

Well. That's just great. As Ali and Em 'reunite' yet again, the night comes back into my head. The thought of how the moment I turn my back, this happens. Like a replacement, as if I was a temporary. Then the replays of our gentle kisses and sweet words, get overpowered by that sly little bitch.

"I'll give you guys a minute," I say as I run out of her room, still trying to understand the situation. What did I do wrong!? What have I done!? The next thing I know, I'm in the bathroom with damp eyes and cold hands, my eyeliner all smudged like black tears. I rip open my bag, and tip everything onto the tiled floor, scavenging for my small container. Yes, I know it won't bring Toby back or send the girl away, but it might help me get over it... I take off the lid with a pop, and see many small, disc shaped tablets staring back at me. Slowly, I shut my eyes and chuck 2 into my mouth.
