     Spencer grabbed her suitcase from trunk and headed to her front door. She unlocked to door and walked inside her house. Her parents and sister smiled from the kitchen.

Veronica "Hi sweetie. Did you have fun?"

Spencer "Yeah. I went snowboarding for the first time in five years."

Peter "I remember that. My twelve year old daughter gliding down the slope like a torpedo...then she crashed into a tree and broke her elbow."

     Everyone laughed at the memory. Young Spencer Hastings had gotten too cocky and tried to snowboard down the steepest slopes. The large tree got closer and closer until she smacked into it. Spencer made jokes all the way to the hospital and the family stopped snowboarding that year.

Veronica "How is Aria's family?"

Spencer "They're nice...I like them."

Veronica "That's nice. We'll have to invite them for dinner sometime. Oh! Toby came looking for you."

Spencer "Oh, well I'll have to call him over."

     Spencer took her bag upstairs and flopped onto her bed. She took out her phone and texted Toby.

Spencer: Were you looking for me?

Toby: Yeah
Toby: Just wanted to know if you were okay

Spencer: I'm alright.
Spencer: Got off the crutches a couple weeks ago

Toby: That's good
Toby: Are you busy right now?

Spencer: No not really
Spencer: Aria may come over but I don't know

Toby: Oh
Toby: I was hoping that we could hang out
Toby: Like old times

Spencer: Come on over I'm free

Toby: Be there in ten
