Solutions

Spencer's POV
I sit beside my mums bed, they told me that she isn't going to pull through this. I don't want to believe them. I'm still in my dress, I've slept here for 2 days now. I can't go, not leaving her here with no one. I've not seen Toby Since the night I got called to the hospital. Mum weakly squeezes my arm. I stand up.
'Mum, hi it's Spencer.' Her face is so badly burnt you can barely tell it's her.
'Spencer, my baby girl' she runs her hand up my face.
'Mum, I'm so sorry for everything'
'Sssh, no I'm sorry for not being there for you.' Tears fall from my eyes.
'I love you.' I clutch her arm.
'I love you too'
'You look beautiful' she looks at my dress.
'Thankyou' I talk through my tears.
'Where did you go?'
'To a restaurant, you suggested it to Toby.' I'm struggling to breathe, I can feel a panic attack coming.
'Did he ask you?' She smiles. She knows.
'Yes, yes he did.' I breathe sharply.
'What did you say?'
'I haven't replied yet..' She looks at me and grabs my arm.
'Your dad ask me to marry him there.' I can see in her eyes, she's trying to say goodbye to me.
'Please don't leave me.'
'I have to Spencer...'
'No, no I need you...' I sob into my hands.
'I will always be here' she taps my heart. 'I will never leave you' I see a tear fall down her face.
'Goodbye mum, I love you' I let go of her hand and leave the room. I can't watch her die. I feel a sharp pain in my chest. I gasp for air. Two nurses run either side of me.
'She needs air, she's having a panic attack' they rush me to a cubical a pass me a air mask. I breathe in and out sharply. Tears stream my face. I lie down on the bed and sob into the pillow. The nurse notifies me that my mum has gone. I weep.

Toby's POV
I sit in the apartment staring at the walls, I just want to comfort Spencer. But I don't know how, she's losing her mother and I know what that's like, I shut everyone out and I don't want her to do that. I hear the keys in the door. Spencer walks in half smiling, I look at her confused.
'Spencer?'
'My mum passed. But it's ok' she opens the fridge and gets out some vodka pours herself some and downs it in one.
'Your not ok are you?' She turns to face me and tears stream her face she grabs hold of me. Sobs onto my chest.
'Toby, I will marry you.' She lift her head up to me. I hug her tighter. She kisses my cheek.
'Will you go a tell Melissa please...' I nod grab my jacket and leave the flat.

Spencer's POV
I watch Toby leave the flat. I grab the bottle of vodka and sit on the sofa. I just keep drinking and drinking, the more I drink the less I feel and the less I feel the less i care. I drink through the tears until they stop. I finish the bottle and look around the flat for more, there is none. I leave the flat and stumble over to the bar.
'A pint of vodka please'
I drink the glass and ask for shots, he refuses to serve me.
'You can't do that, I'm a paying costumer.' I point at him.
'Miss can I ask you to leave.'
'No you bloody well can't.' I wave my empty glass at him, he grabs the underneath of my arms and pushes my out the door. Toby comes running over to me.
'Spencer...what.. Are you drunk?'
'I don't know are you?' I smile at Toby.
'Come on let's go inside' he touches my arm.
'Get off me.' I push him off me. 'You just leave me alone. All of you leave me alone' I see double of Toby. I rub my eyes and turn away from him, I don't know where I'm going and I don't care.

Toby's POV
I watch Spencer stumble away from me. She's taking this worse then I could ever of imagined. I walk into the flat and see the empty bottle on the couch, I go to the bar and see how much she's drank. I rush out of the bar and look for Spencer, I need to find her she's not stable right now, who knows what she could do.

Spencer's POV.
I see a gentlemen walk towards me with a badge. It's shining, I want to touch it.
'Ma'am you're under arrest for breaking and entering' I look around me, I'm in Toby's old house.
'But, this is'
He pushes my arms behind my back which makes me scream in utter pain. He pulls me out the house. The blue flashing lights look so pretty... Blackout.

Toby's POV
'Spencer?' I shout Down the Main Street. Where would she go? My phone starts ringing...
Lorenzo..
'Hello Toby.'
'Lorenzo hi'
'Spencer is in custody...'
'What?'
'She broke into your old house, she has to spend the night here for drunken behaviour..' I end the phone call and run to the police station.
'Where is she?' I ask the main desk.
'She's passed out in her cell, if you want to see her you'll have to wait till tomorrow' I grit my teeth and turn away from the office.

Spencer's POV
I flick my eyes open, what the hell happened. My head is banging and I feel sick. I look around me, I'm in a jail cell. I try to stand up but I feel faint and fall back down on the bed. Maybe if I just rest my eyes I'll be fine.

Toby's POV
I walk into the office to see Lorenzo sat with Spencer's belongings.
'You'll need these' I half smile.
'Have you..'
'Yes I've cleared her name, she's free to go in the morning..what happened with her?'
'She lost her mum today...'
