Being childhood friends means you've seen each other's every high or low, whether it's toxic friendships or, in this case—a toxic relationship. Spencer started dating Lila after saving her from her stalker. At first, things seemed great between them, but over time the relationship turned toxic.
As Spencer's best friend, you always had feelings for him. Watching him date someone else hurt, but all you could do was pretend to be happy for them. Whenever things went wrong, he would come to you to vent, he didn't know how painful it was for you to listen to him talk about another girl—especially one who treated him so badly. Still, he refused to end it because he was in love with her.
Today—like many times before, Spencer sat on your bed, ranting about Lila again.
“I don’t get it... Every time we’re together, it’s like she’s embarrassed to be with me. I catch her looking at other guys, but she always brushes it off,” he sighed. “She says she loves me, though,” he added quietly.
