Bad Calls

"What do you mean when you get up here?" she asked trying to hide the panic in her voice.

"I bought a ticket, I'm coming up, this weekend." He said.

"You really don't have to come all the way up here to talk, we can talk over the phone" she said.

"I'm coming up, it's done, just don't make any decisions until I come visit and we talk ok?" he said "We should really do this face to face"

"Ok" she said weakly. She decided to head over to the repair shop and tell Toby about her conversation with Andrew. She really hoped he wouldn't be angry.

"Hey" she said as she walked in to the repair shop. "I called Andrew to break it off with him and he cut me off before I could." She admitted.

Toby said nothing so she continued.

"He booked a ticket to come see me and I couldn't talk him out of it"

"So when is he coming up?" Toby asked flatly.

"This weekend" she said "it doesn't change anything I'm still going to break up with him" she said. "We waited all this time, we can wait a little while longer can't we?" she said in a apologetic tone.

"I guess" he said tossing a wrench back into his toolbox.

"Are you mad?" she asked with a slight pout.

"Eh" he said "I guess I'll get over it"

"Thank you for being so understanding" Spencer said. "I promise after this weekend I'm going to be all yours"

"I'm gonna hold you to it" he said with a smile.

"You aren't gonna banish me from the garage until I'm single again are you?"

"No" he said lightly. "I'm just not going to kiss you again until you're single."

Spencer laughed lightly.

"So what's your plan today?" she asked changing the subject.

"I actually have the day off" he informed her.

"You wanna do something?" she asked.

"Something like?" he urged.

"I don't know, something fun" she teased.

"How about we meet up with the crew at the beach. I need witnesses to keep me honest and keep me from succumbing to your depravity" he teased.

"OK, the beach it is." She laughed.

Within the hour they were all laid out on a section of beach with their friends. Emily and Alison took to the water straight away. They became engaged in an energetic game of trying to drown each other. Caleb at some point convinced Hanna they should rent jet skis and the two took off. Jason and Aria kept whispering into each other's ears and soon they were headed off and there was no need to ask where they were going. Emily and Ali finally returned and plunked down on their towels and began to nap under the big umbrella they had brought.

"You ready to go in?" Toby asked since she hadn't gone into the water yet.

"No" she sighed "I just want to tan and read" she said.

"Oh really?" he asked excitedly before picking her up and carrying her to the water.

"Toby! Put me down!" she cried.

"I will put you down....in the water" he joked.

"I'm going to kick your ass when you put me down" she said. He held her bridal style in the water twisting back and forth. Spencer began to visibly relax.
