So this is going to be a book I felt inspired to write. It's just a bunch of one shots about Spoby. Occasionally I will write two shots but the majority will be one shots.
Toby's P.O.V.
I walk into The Brew to order two coffees.
"Is this one for Spencer?" Emily asks, holding up the cup containing Spencer's favorite coffee.
"Yeah," I grin. "I just got back from a conference and I was going to go surprise her."
"Aw. That's sweet Toby, but Spencer's sick. She can barely eat. She's been sick for almost a week." Em frowns.
I feel so bad for my baby. "Why didn't anyone call me? I would have came back to check on her." I ask.
"That's what Spence said. She said that this was an important meeting and she didn't want to mess it up for you." Emily says, handing me my change.
"Thanks Em. I need to run." I say, heading for the door.
I run to my truck and drive to Spence's as fast as I can. When I go inside, I run up the stairs after seeing that she's not in the living room. When I enter her room, I see Spencer asleep in her bed and Aria sitting in the red chair next to the window.
Aria looks up, "Hey Toby. I didn't know you were going to be back. Veronica asked me to stay with Spence until she gets home from work tonight."
"How has she been?" I whisper, not taking my eyes off of Spencer.
"Today has been one of the worst. She just went back to sleep about thirty minutes ago. Before that she was in the bathroom for about an hour throwing up."
After she says that, I slip off my shoes and crawl into bed with Spencer.
Aria's P.O.V.
I watch as Toby crawls in bed with Spencer. As soon as he puts his head on the pillow, Spencer turns over and wraps her arms around Toby, cuddling into him.
"Toby?" Spencer asks, rubbing her eyes.
"Yeah. It's me, Spence." Toby whispers, wrapping his arms around her waist.
A smile lights up Spencer's face. It's the second time I've seen her smile the whole time she's been sick. The only other time was when Toby sent her a god morning text yesterday.
"I missed you Tobes." Spencer murmurs.
"I missed you too sweetheart. But I'm here now." Toby kisses her forehead. "You are burning up baby."
As they talk, the smile stays on Spencer's face. I decide to step out and head downstairs to give them some privacy until Veronica gets home.
Toby's P.O.V.
I cuddle with Spencer, peppering her face with kisses until she drifts off to sleep. After she drifts off, I play with her hair, watching her. She looks so relaxed when she's asleep. I know how much she hates it when she's sick.
After about an hour, Aria comes back in the room.
"Veronica just came home. I'm going to grab my bag so I can go." Aria says, picking up her bag. "Tell Spence I said bye."
I nod and smile, afraid that if I talk I will wake Spencer whose head is on my chest.
Aria walks down and I hear her and Veronica talk for a few minutes before the door shuts.
Veronica sticks her head into the room, smiling. "Hey Toby. I'm glad that you are here. Maybe she will be able to get some decent sleep. She always relaxes when you are here."
"I'm glad to be here." I smile.
"Well, I'm making some chicken noodle soup. See if you can get Spencer to come down and eat some later." She says, shutting the door.
I am so glad that Spencer's parents have accepted our relationship now. I think that they realize that I will do anything for their daughter.
After a few minutes, Spencer starts to stir. She opens her eyes and sits up, pulling me up with her.
"Hey baby. How do you feel?" I ask.
"Mmm okay. It's easier to sleep knowing that you are here with me." Spencer says, crawling in between my legs and resting her back against my front.
"Your mom cooked you some soup. Do you want to eat?" I ask, putting my arms around her.
"Will you come with me?" Spencer asks weakly, turning around to look into my eyes.
I smile, "Of course Spence."
She kisses my shoulder before starting to stand.
I jump out of the bed and wrap my arms around her, assisting her.
Spencer wraps her arms around my neck, weakly asking, "Carry me?"
I immediately pick her up bridal style, cradling her to my chest. I place tender kisses to her head as I walk down the stairs.
I walk over to the bar and place her on a bar stool.
"Thank you Tobes." Spencer says, hugging my side.
"Hey Spencer. How are you feeling today sweetie?" Veronica asks. Ever since the divorce, Veronica seems to appreciate and look out for Spencer more.
"Okay, a little better than the rest of the week." Spencer tells her.
Veronica laughs as she places the soup in front of Spencer. "Well I wonder why that could be. Maybe because Toby is here?"
I smile but feel guilty because I haven't been here when Spencer needed me.
"Toby. Sit down. Do you want some soup?" Veronica offers.
I nod as Spencer rests her hand on my knee.
"Tomorrow, I'm going to take off work and take you to the doctor. I made your appointment today." Veronica tells us.
Spencer immediately blanches at the thought of visiting a doctor.
"Do I have to go?" Spencer whines, looking down at her uneaten soup.
"Yes honey." Veronica sighs.
"Can Toby take me? Please?" Spencer asks looking between me and her mother.
Veronica looks at me and I nod.
"If that's what you want." Veronica says. "But right now, you need to eat. I have to go finish some work. I'll be in my office if you need me."
"Want me to feed you, baby?" I ask, playing with Spencer's hair.
She shyly nods pushing her bowl over to me. I pick up the spoon and bring it to her mouth, smiling.
After she finishes the bowl of soup, I pick her up and bring her back upstairs. As soon as I place her on the bed, she gets up and runs to the bathroom. I follow her, holding her hair away from her face and rubbing her back as she throws up into the toilet.
When she is finished, she turns around and cries into my chest.
"Shh. Baby, it's okay." I whisper, stroking her back and kissing the crown of her head.
She cries for a few minutes then says, "I love you Toby. So much. I don't know what I would do without you."
"I love you too Spence." I smile. "Do you want me to run you a bath?"
She nods and I break away from her embrace to fix the water just how she likes it.
"I'll be in your room if you need me Spence." I say, heading to the door.
"Wait!" Spencer croaks out. "You can stay. I don't want you to leave me."
I smile and tell her that I'm just going to get her clothes but I will be back.
When I walk back into the bathroom, Spencer is sitting in the filled tub, looking at me expectantly.
I sit on a stool next to Spencer's makeup before she says, "Uh Toby? Can you help me? Please?"
"Of course sweetheart." I stand and take off my clothes before joining Spencer in the tub.
I sit against the back of the tub and she leans against me as I put shampoo in my hands and run them through her hair. I wash it out then do the same thing with conditioner before taking soap and a washcloth to wash her body.
After her bath is finished, she dries off and smiles at the clothes I picked out for her.
I had brought a pair of my boxers that I leave here for when I stay and my anchor shirt.
When we go back to her room, I lay her in the bed before asking, "Is there anything you need babe?"
"Just hold me"
