you had not closed your eyes for one moment when spencer was beginning to wake up with the rising sun blinding his closed eyes. he had slept through the entire night, and that made you smile, your lips tugging subconsciously.
then you snap them straight again. because those butterflies are flying in and coming fast.ย
when spencer sits up youโre quick to tell him the excuse youโd been concocting all night, that you have a therapy appointment, you canโt be late for it.
heโs nodding with understanding, still trying to gather his mind, rubbing his eyes to try and rid the sleep from his body. youโve managed to peel yourself from the sofa, relief flooding your legs when they were no longer suffocating under both jeans and a leather surface, trying to remember where youโve placed your shoes and bag before spencer stops you.
โy/n, i just want to say, i probably wouldnโt have slept last night if you werenโt there for me.โ
your head snaps up, and spencer smiles coyly, a blush on the apples of his cheeks that made you wonder for a few split seconds if this is what he looked like every morning.
