Spencer :

I sat outside, alone. The wind cool but comfortable, blowing through my hair. Ironically, it was a sunny day, considering I felt like crap.

I flipped to the last page. I saw a picture of me holding the flowers Kian bought me after our date. I read the note, what the nurse said was true. A tear fell from my eye landing on the picture. I flipped back to the first page. It was Kian and I playing with my sister Kaylee. We were in the sandbox, Kian and I in the middle of a sand throwing war. We were laughing, heads leaned back, sun shinning.

The next picture had to be one of my favorites. Kian and I were sitting on the swings. Our backs facing the camera. We had just our pinkies locked together as the sun set. It was truly beautiful.

The next couple of pages were like the ones before it. More pictures of Kian and I from when we were little till just last week. I came to the last page. Instead of a picture there was a letter.

*Dear Spencer,

I love you. I know we have been friends for so long, and I needed to tell you that. That night you called me I was looking through our pictures. My heart leaped when I saw the caller ID. I know about Austin and I'm so sorry.

Ha, remember that day when we were out back playing house. You were my wife, and I kissed you. Your face lit up in embarrassment, but you kissed back. Yeah, that was one of the best days of my life.

Spencer I know you're going to read this and cry. I know nothing will stop you from crying, but please don't be sad. I know I'm going to die. It's sad of course. I mean hell, who wants to die at 18. Surely not me. But I've excepted it. I just want you to go on with your life. Not to forget about me but to move on.

I love you so much. I need you to be happy. Even though I would trade anything to be him, I want you to be with Nash. I saw the way he looked at you. He really likes you. Lucky guy he is.

Remember me, yeah? I love you. Don't worry I'll see you again.

-pinky promise. *

I wiped the tears from my eyes. I closed the book and sat back. I leaned my head up forward and looked into the sky.

"I promise," I smiled, "I promise Kian."

I stood up and walked to the edge. I rested my arms over the balcony railing. Leaning against it another tear fell from my eye.

Nash walked out and hugged me from behind. He rested his head on my shoulder and kissed my cheek. I turned myself around and hugged him. A tight, comforting hug. He held one hand on the small of my back, the other around my shoulders. I gripped his mid section and rested my head into the crook of his neck.

We stayed in the position for a while. Silence, but not an awkward silence. I didn't want to let go, ever. His warm embrace calmed me, made me feel.....better.

We walked inside and went into the kitchen to join everyone else. Nash walked into the living room with all the other guys. I met Siena in the kitchen.

"Hey. You ok?" She asked.

"Yeah, I think."

"Good. I'm so sorry Spenc." She pulled my into a hug, I smiled reassuring her it was ok, reassuring myself it was ok.

"All the guys are in the living room. I guess Matt brought some girl."

"Oh, well do you wanna go in there? We don't have to."

"Ehh I don't care really."

"Hey? You ok?"

"Yeah, Cameron and I just got in a huge fight."

"Why?"

"Because I've been hanging with Taylor and he thinks I like him. He's so pissed because I went to lunch with him. Like, we didn't even do anything. Taylor is one of my closet friends now and I don't know why he won't trust me."

"Oh I'm sorry."

"Ehh it's ok. I'm gonna go into the living room if you wanna come."

Siena walked off into the living room. I walked behind her and sat with Nash. Siena sat on the opposite side of the room from Cameron. I'm gonna be honest it's kinda awkward I looked over and saw a girl with Matt. He head was turned so I couldn't see how it was. When she finally turned I couldn't believe my eyes.

Siena :

"I DON'T KNOW WHY YOU'RE SO UPSET?!"

"BECAUSE SIENA YOU JUST WENT ON A DATE WITH TAYLOR!"

"IT WASN'T A FUCKING DATE CAMERON! FOR GODS SAKE WE WENT TO MCDONALDS!"

"STILL, THEN YOU WENT SHOPPING WITH HIM!"

"CAMERON, IT MEANT NOTHING! JESUS WHY CAN'T YOU TRUST ME!"

I slammed the door shut as I walked out. I heard it open again, and something grabbed my wrist. I turned and saw Cameron with tear stained cheeks.

"Get off of me."

"Siena, please. Stop."

"No, you can't trust me. Now get off." I pull my arm free and run down the steps. I walk into the kitchen and fall into Taylor's arms. I cried into his shirt and told him everything that happened. He gave me a hug, and them walked into the living room. Cameron walked downstairs. I looked away as he walked into the living room Spencer and Nash came down next. Nash walked into the living room and Spencer walked over to me.

We talked for a bit, debating whether or not to go into the living room. Finally I decided I should. We walked in and I sat at a different couch than Cameron. I could feel his eyes burning into me but I didn't pay attention. The girl with Matt turned her head around, showing us who she was. WHAT THE FUCK?

"P-Peyton?" Spencer asked.

"Uh....hi?"

"What is she doing here?" I asked.

"She's Matt's girl. Why?" Nash spoke.

"I'm sorry, I've got to go." I got up, leaving the living room as Cameron followed.
