Spencer's POV

"I'm finished here, would you be able to come pick me up? -S"

I had texted Toby a little while after I had revealed all to my mum. Finishing the last of my coffee I walk over to the sink and place my mug into it ready for it to be washed. Taking a deep breath I turn around to find my mum staring down at me.

"Toby's a wonderful boy, don't keep him hanging on Spencer, he deserves to know how you feel" My mum informs me while stroking my arm. I nod and go to make my way to see my Dad but then I hear the truck horn outside. Walking back towards the kitchen, I grab my bag and make my way outside before getting pulled back by my Mum.

"Don't string him along Spencer" She tells me more sternly. I wipe the final stray tears from my face and make my way towards Toby who was waiting in the truck. I strap myself in the car and before I could say anything Toby wipes my cheeks.

"Why have you been crying?" Toby asks me worried.

"Not here, can you drive me back to Caleb's please?" I ask, avoiding the subject. I turn straight on and notice Toby nod before pulling out of the drive.

As I storm into Caleb's parents house followed by a confused Toby, I can't erase what my Mum told me. I had to tell Toby how I felt.

"Spencer.. Spencer.. Spencer!" I hear Toby shout as he follows me into the kitchen unable to get my attention. Before I could do anything he spins me around and gently pushes me against the counter.

"You haven't spoken a word since we left your parents place, what's going on?" He asks me.

"You won't be so eager to know once I've told you" I inform him as I look him straight in the eyes.

"Try me" Toby challenges me.

"I can't do this anymore Toby, it's just the same as last time - except more drama!" I cry waiting for his reaction. I feel him loosen his grip until he's beginning to walk away from me.

"Ok Whatever" Toby says softly as he grabs his keys from the side.

"Wait is that it? You're not going to at least try and change my mind?!" I ask running after him.

"What's the point? Spencer, there's one thing about you that will never change - and that's your stubborn personality. I'll see you around" Toby turns to me before leaving the door, shutting it behind him.

"Spence.. Are you okay?" I hear someone ask me suddenly. I turn around to find Caleb staring at me before opening up his arms. I run straight into them as Caleb cradles me and the tears start to fall once more.
