The Bad Boy's Roomate

Chapter 23 : Secrets

Don't be a silent reader, comment what you think ☺️

Toby's POV

* Few days later *

I'm currently with Noel and the rest of the gang. My fight with the anonymous person is meant to be tomorrow but I haven't heard anything from them since.

Since I have been occupied with Spencer's situation I haven't had as much time to prepare as I would have liked but it's fine. I like to think that I'm a good fighter so hopefully I will be able to handle whoever it is.

She needed me there so that's more important that anything else I needed to do. I feel like we are finally creating a bond. Yes it does make my feelings for her grow by the second and yes it does confuse the heck out of me.

But I can't exactly complain.

I have tried to convince her to tell the girls and she keeps saying she will. There's a part of me that doesn't want to force her though. Spencer will tell them when she is ready. Only she knows when that is.

It's like we are complete opposites, like two ends of a magnet. That's why we attract. Look at me trying to make sense of something that isn't even explainable. Toby Cavanaugh catching feelings, there's no explanation to that.

I'm holding myself back from just grabbing her and kissing the girl. Its taking a lot of strength and I'm quite proud of myself. For Spencer I would do anything though and I will wait for her.

There is a part of me that is nervous as I have no idea who it is I need to fight. They could end up being much taller and stronger than me. I try not to let it stress me though as I have no choice but to just try my hardest.

Noel has given up so much for me to be in the position I am. He has spent so much money to get me into Upenn, money that he didn't have. I want to show him that although I am not always with him, I won't ever stop fighting for him.

There is also a lot of built up anger that I need to let out. In front of Spencer I am constantly acting like we need to move on from what happened which isn't what I really think. I just know that the next time I see Alex or Adam, they are in for a treat.

The two idiots are still nowhere to be seen which just causes my hatred towards them to grow. I'm not the person to let things slide especially after what they did. I will get them back for what they put Spencer through.

There's a void that will finally be filled once I get my hands on both of them. My anger is slowly growing and growing, day by day. As soon as I can do what I want to them, I'll be just fine. 

"Toby there's a letter for you." Noel says walking in the room and handing it to me.

I raise an eyebrow and take it from him.

"I'm going to go and order some pizza." Noel then says before walking out the room.

I open the letter and read what it says.

To Toby,

You must be wondering why you haven't heard from any of us lately. We have been a little preoccupied but don't worry the fight will still be on tomorrow at 7pm. It will be at the abandoned gym near the old church. We also have a task for you.

You will invite Spencer to come and watch you fight. You will not fight back but instead accept every punch that comes your way. If you don't, then we will tell your little Spence about Yvonne. Seems like you don't have a choice after all.

From your fellow enemy.

The Spades.

I blink. Once. Twice. As many times as it takes for me to comprehend what I just read.

Who the fuck are these people?

They know about Spencer. They know about Yvonne. They know about the gang. They fucking know everything.

Spencer can't know about Yvonne. She will hate me if she ever finds out. I hadn't even thought about her knowing at all. Very few people know about what happened.

I don't have a choice at this point. Either I don't invite Spencer to watch me get beat up by these strangers and they tell her about Yvonne. Or my other option is that I invite her but she has to watch me go through that.

What if I just keep them away from her? I wonder but then an answer pops up. Whoever these people are they know their stuff. If I protect Spencer from them then they will just find some way for her to find out about Yvonne.

Fucking hell.

Things were going so well until this point. I need to ask her to come. It's the only way. Maybe I can get Noel to distract her or something whilst I'm getting beat up.

No that won't work. I know Spencer. She will want to see me. This whole thing has just become so fucked up. What the fuck have I done to these people? What do they even want?

I get up and pace around whilst my thoughts consume me. I punch the wall hard out of anger. Whoever these people are I'm getting them back eventually.

It's just got to wait till after tomorrow. I just can't let Spencer know about Yvonne. I'd rather get a million punches thrown at me than her hate me after knowing. She can't know.

The selfish part of me needs to hide this from her. I have never even considered telling her and I won't ever. She doesn't need to know so she won't. If that means me getting hurt then so be it.

I feel like we are finally understanding each other better. We haven't argued or fought about anything since it happened so I won't let this ruin it.

I know I will eventually hurt her. I'm a player. I can't help myself at times. I don't know how this whole feelings thing works in the slightest. But at least I'm trying.

I'm trying for her.
