  You felt hot tears pour down your face. This was the third time you had called Sasha. Yet to no avail, she hadnât picked up the phone. Youâd think your best friend would answer in your time of need.Â
    You scrolled to the next person in your contacts list, Missy. After three rings, Missy had finally picked up. âHey Y/n.â,she answered cheerfully. âHey.â,you sighed. âAre you home by chance?â,You asked, attempting to choke back tears.Â
  âUh no Iâm out of town right now. I wonât be back till tomorrowâ,she said dodgy , like that wasnât the entire truth. âAre you okay?â,she follows up. âNo no everything is okay.â,you lied, trying not to be a bother.Â
  âUm enjoy. Iâll talk to you tomorrowâ,you sigh before hanging up.
            <~>~<~>~<~>
 You donât remember exactly how you got here. All you knew was that you parked your car a few blocks up and ended up outside Spiders Window. You lightly tapped on his window praying that Ant and Dusty werenât at his house. All you needed was to be even more embarrassed.Â
    Spiders light flickered on before he peered his head out his window to see you standing at the window, face soaked in tears, mascara, and rain water. âShit. Y/n you okay?â,he asks in a concerned tone. âCan I come in?â,you asked in barely a whisper. He eagerly nods before helping you climb through his window.Â
  âIâm sorry. I donât mean to impose, I didnât know where else to go.â,you said as tears started to roll once again. âYouâre not imposing. My mom actually isnât even here. Sheâs..uh..out of townâ,he says,hesitant yet still glancing at you with that concerned glance on his face.Â
  He eyes the darkened expression on your face, âAre they fighting again?â,he asks only glancing at you slightly. You let out a deep sigh, âYeah. And itâs really bad this time.â, you wipe your face.Â
You hated feeling weak. You werenât a weak punk ass bitch, your words not mine . And you made sure you never cried in front of ANYONE. But when it came to Spencer, for some odd reason all your walls came down. In your eyes nobody knew him like you did. Yea he could be a dick and a narcissistic asshole but it wasnât completely his fault. And he could be surprisingly sweet when it came down to it.Â
  Your parents always fought. It was what you grew up hearing. But recently the fights had been getting worse and worse. Theyâd been getting more volatile, sometimes even ending in screaming matches that made you flinch at the mere sound of a raised voice in school.Â
    âI..I canât stay there. I really canât Spencerâ,you breathed out. âYou donât have to if you donât want to Y/n. You know youâre always welcome hereâ,he walks over to you, caressing your arms before engulfing you into a hug. You pulled him tight as you possibly could. Truth be told, he was your safe space. He was who you went to when you needed a shoulder to lean on when it came to real shit.Â
   âOkay your clothes are sopping wet, do you wanna take a shower and Iâll grab you some clean clothes?â,He asks, eyeing the damp sweats that were clung to your body. You just nod up at him with a slight smile. You make your way to his bathroom before getting into the hot shower. This seemed to make all the bad thoughts melt away. It was just you and the water, until you heard the door creek open.Â
  âOk just coming in to drop off your clothesâ, Spider walks in, a hand over his eyes to shield his eyes from you. âUm why are you acting like this is something youâve never seen before?â, You laugh at the site in front of you.Â
  âOi, Iâm tryna be respectful yaâknow â,he shrugs. âI mean you could always join meâ,you give a smirk. Spider eyes you,shocked as if heâs considering it and then it looks as if he snaps out of it. âI will be in my room when youâre doneâ,he says almost tripping over his words before disappearing from the bathroom entryway . âAm I losin my edgeâ?â,you asked yourself aloud. Â
   You rinse off before stepping out the shower and drying off with the fresh towel he had put out for you. You slip into the seemingly somewhat oversized basketball practice jersey of his and the basketball shorts that felt gigantic. You eyed yourself in the mirror, loving what was looking back at you in the mirror.Â
  You make your way into Spiders room, heâs on his video game, as usual. You glance over at him and heâs already staring back at you. âI reckon you look better in my clothes than me,eh?â, he smiles. âI will admit it looks really good on meâ,you smile at the mirror placed across from you beside Spencerâs bed.Â
  âWell in all fairness you look good in everything you wearâ, he says looking up at you from his seat on the edge of the bed. You shove him, âoh shut upâ, with a laugh. He gives you a wide grin, and the comfortable silence sets in. Your mind starts to wander back to the scene that had unfolded 2 hours previously.Â
   âYou wanna talk about it?â, he looks up at you solemnly. You just shake your head no before taking a seat next to him. âThank you for letting me stay here Spider. Seriouslyâ,you grab his hand. âYou know itâs no problemâ,He smiles over at you.Â
  âI do have one question thoughâ,he says hesitant as if he doesnât want to ask. âHmm?â, you turn your attention back to him. âWhyâd you come here? Like I know you said you didnât have anywhere else to go but I canât help but wonder.â,he asks.Â
   âTruth is , I did call Sasha and Missy. But Sasha didnât answer and Missy is out of town. But when I sat and thought about it I only wanted to be around you. You are for some crazy reason I canât understand, the only person who understands me. And sometimes youâre the only person I can stand to be around.â, you let out a deep sigh.Â
   He throws an arm over your shoulder and pulls you into a side hug. You smirk over at him before crawling onto his lap and straddling him, kissing him deeply. âYou are so not losing your edgeâ,he laughs. Signaling that he heard you in the shower earlier.Â
