*Spencer's P.O.V*

"Emma!" I yelled, storming into my dorm room.

"Hey what's wrong with you?" she asked emerging from the bathroom.

"Cody is in my Chemistry class." I threw my textbooks onto my bed. "Why! Why do I have to put up with this!" I kicked all the clothes that were on the floor around. "I am pissed!" I yelled angrily.

"Spence, calm down please. I'm going to go get you a coffee and then we can talk ok?" Emma quickly hopped out of the room.

I paced around the room, kicking anything that I came across. To let off steam I decided to go for a run. I quickly texted Emma and changed into a tank top and shorts and jogged down to the track.

I ran and ran and ran, my feet pounding against the track with every step I took. I just wanted to run away from everything and everyone so I just kept doing laps until I noticed a figure in front of me.

"Are you ok Spence?" the familiar voice called out to me as I got closer.

"Yep." I mumbled sprinting past.

"Wait! Spencer slow down!" I kept running, even as he chased me, even when he begged me to stop. I kept running until I couldn't go any further.

"Spencer... Please... Stop...." he wheezed in between deep breaths.

I bent over trying to catch my breath too. "What do you want Finn?"

"I just wanted to make sure you're ok. Emma told me you were upset and that you came down here."

"Finn I'm fine!" I snapped. "I am ok, I don't want your sympathy or your help! There is nothing wrong!" I yelled at him, turning away when I saw his hurt expression.

"Spencer?" he placed his hand on my shoulder. I turned back around to face him and he pulled me into a hug. At that moment my anger turned into sadness and I just let hot tears roll down my cheeks. I hated crying about Cody but something about Finn's warm embrace just made me let it all go.

We sat the the centre of the track on the grass and I opened up to him about everything, well almost. I told him about Cody and what he did, Rhiannon, the incident at Starbucks, the text I got in the car, the reason I freaked out whenever he got too close. Usually I never felt comfortable about sharing this stuff with people, but there was something about Finn that I couldn't quite put my finger on.

"Spencer, I had no idea how much crap you've been through. I swear to God I will kill him!" Finn started to get angry.

"It really doesn't matter anymore.' I mumbled, picking a piece of grass and tearing it.

"Spence, it does. I will make him pay for what he did to you."

"No, you won't." I shook my head, staring down at the grass again. A small tear escaped my eye and Finn wrapped his arm around my shoulder. Leaning into him, I looked up, staring into his green eyes.

"Thank you Finn." His face began to get closer to mine, yet this time I didn't freak out or run away. Maybe it was the fact he knew everything now. Maybe it was the fact he was acting protective over me. Maybe it was just the fact he looked extra cute in a plain white tshirt and black skinny jeans. Whatever it was, I was ok getting close to him.

He softly pressed his lips to mine and I got the stereotypical "lightning" run through my body. Even though it had been a very long time since I'd kissed anyone, this kiss was better than any of the ones I'd ever had with Cody. We pulled apart, slightly panting.
