A Summer in Paris: a Spoby story

Chapter 27

Toby's POV:

I'm laying on the couch with Spencer in my arms trying to process all that she has told me tonight. Ali forced me to take the blame for blinding Jenna, but she didn't tell the girls how. Ali held their secrets over their head, but she also protected them. Then Ali went missing, they thought their secrets were safe, but right before they found her body they started getting texts from someone they thought was Ali. Then her body was found and the texts continued and then the threats that were backed up by them getting hurt. Every time since Spencer and I have been together that she has broken up with me has been because of this person or people from what it sounds like. I look down at Spencer, sleeping peacefully in my embrace, I know that my job is to keep her safe. That's what I am meant to do. I pick her up and bring her into the bedroom and lay her down on the bed and then get in next to her. She immediately curls back into me when I'm sitting next to her. I smile, after everything I've done in the past and everything we've been through she still loves me. How could she ever think that I wouldn't love her? I lay down all of the way pulling Spencer closer to me, I almost didn't get to hold her tonight. She broke up with me trying to protect me, again, but she's not supposed to protect me, I'm supposed to protect her. I don't know ow I'm going to do it, but I will protect Spencer no matter what it takes because without her my life is pointless. Before Spencer all I did was sit in my room reading trying to escape my "life" of being accused of murder and everyone hating me. I turn off the light, throw the blanket over us, and whisper "I love you" into Spencer's ear after kissing her softly and then I drift off into a peaceful sleep.
