<Toby>
They we're able to revive Avery, She's now awake and happy again back with her family. She started immediately crying when she saw Violet.
<Flashback>
"Daddy? Mummy?" She asks as we help her sit up in bed I kiss her delicate forehead "You're okay baby you're okay" I say soothingly "I'm so glad you're awake sweetheart you're Dad and I have missed you" Spencer says as we both sit with her "Avery?" We all turn to see Violet standing there looking at her sister "Violet" Avery cries I lift my daughter onto the bed and she quickly hug's her sister tightly. "I'm so so sorry" Violet whimpers as they both hug each other tightly "It's not your fault"
<Flashback over>
After spending some time with the girls Spencer was organising Avery's leaving while I wait in the waiting area. "Toby? There you are" Veronica sighs sitting down near me "Are you okay?" She asks giving me a small smile "I'm okay I'm just so so glad that Avery's alive and happy" Veronica nod's running a hand through her hair "Yes it's fantastic news Spencer told me what had happened to you for those past 3 Years . You have no idea what she went through when you we're gone I understand you did it to protect them but..." She trails off sighing heavily "My daughter went through absolute hell without you and now you're back to make things right. But I'm telling you now don't come between her and Miles he's good for her Toby. He makes her happy and he loves her you should be happy for her" I frown as I listen to Veronica I know Spencer went through a lot when I was gone and I wish for nothing more that I could've been here. "Veronica I wish I could've been here for Spencer I really do and I know that Miles is a good guy" I defend leaning forward as she hisses "What you two had will always be with you and you have two beautiful daughters to show you're once love. But Toby I swear to god if you try to come between Miles and her relationship with him It'll be a big mistake. You two had an amazing adventure together but it's over now it's done Toby" That's the last thing she say's before she leaves.

<Spencer>
"Thanks for helping today" I say to Toby walking him to the front door "Avery and Violet love having you here come by tomorrow if you like" I say as we exchange small smiles "I've gotta work all day tomorrow I'm sorry" His smile vanishes into a frown "It's okay another time" I step back crossing my arms over my chest "You going to be okay?" He asks looking at me in concern "Yeah I'll be fine, I've got the girls and mum's staying the night" He nods running a hand through his hair "I spoke with Miles he's a great guy" I smile as he mentions Miles "Yes, He's an amazing guy" Toby nods "Yes he is, I'm glad you have someone" He says in a rather frustrated tone "Don't have to say it like that Toby you could've had me but you let me go. You didn't fight for me like you said you always would" He scoffs looking rather pissed off "How many fucking times do I have to say it?!" He shouts in anger "I did it to protect the only woman that matters to me! I love you Spencer!" He shouts now as if he's in pain "It killed me every second of every day not being with you. You have no idea what I went through that day I said goodbye to you-" I cut him off "What? I know what it felt like! I know exactly what it felt like!" I shout at him tears streaming down my face "You said you'd never leave me again! And now look at us Toby 3 fucking years later and look at where we are!" I shout and then back away "Just go" I whisper looking at him "Just go" I whisper heading upstairs not wanting to see him anymore.

<Toby>
As I turn the door knob to leave Spencer's house Veronica grabs my wrist "I told you Toby she's happy with Miles" I sigh pushing her wrist off mine and opening the door walking out "If you love her you'll let her go" And those are the words that leave my heart broken
