Chapter 9
Author's Note: I'm really sorry for giving up on this story. Truth be told, I really lost inspiration and passion for the project especially now that this series of PLL is ending. I apologize to those of you who were looking forward to reading. I will do my best to update when I am not busy in college. College kicks my butt with all the homework and projects. But on the weekend I will spend some time in writing and doing my best to complete this story fully. XOXO, much love to all my supporters, you all mean the world to me. Love you all, Jasmyn
I know that this story has lost a lot of viewers but I will do my best to finish this story no matter how long it takes. I hate leaving things unpublished and not finalized. So thank you for anyone who has stuck by while I was uninspired for this story. You all are the real MVP's here.
As Spencer laid in bed awake after spending most of her day with her doctor buddy Wren, she decided to go home after a long therapy session with ice cream. Wren picked her up some ice cream from a local Dairy Queen so she could satisfy her sweet tooth. He made sure to buy some frozen yogurt in case she wanted a healthier more organic option for the vegan side of her personality.
"You know you didn't need to spoil me with all the ice cream off the menu." Spencer laughed with a deadpan expression on her face when he returned to his apartment after taking Spencer for a stroll around the neighborhood.
"I know but I wanted to plus you looked like a little kid on Christmas day when we passed by a few ice cream joints on the way back." Wren returned Spencer's glance with a look of adoration.
"Well I'm eating for two now anyway, but I don't want a lot of fat after pushing this huge baby out of me." Spencer jokes smiling slightly awkwardly.
"Who cares? You've been doing fine so far and your hormone levels are pretty evenly balanced according to your lab results. I'm never one to deny a craving every once in a while." Wren replied smiling putting his arm around Spencer's shoulder heading back to his apartment.
Spencer quietly lets Wren unlock his apartment door and steps in.
"This afternoon has been nice. But I should really get back home now. My parents will freak out if they knew about any of this." Spencer suggested politely.
"You're right, the way things ended with me and Melissa didn't go well with the Hastings. You're free to stop by any time you like though if it's doctor related issues though." Wren realized what time it was while looking at his smart watch.
"I'll see you around hopefully." Spencer said before giving Wren a quick hug before hastily leaving his apartment.
"It's okay, we'll chat on the phone perhaps?" Wren asked hugging Spencer back.
"Of course. You are my doctor after all." Spencer replied with deadpan, dry humor.
"I know this whole situation is just awkward in general. But I'm glad I'm your doctor at least and your friend through all of this." Wren pointed out.
"You've been amazing, thank you for even offering me to stay over here during this troubling time." Spencer said.
"No problem. You're welcome to stay over whenever you want and to make it official I made you an extra spare key in case you need to take a nap or just rest during the day." Wren replied taking out the spare key to the apartment.
"A spare key? I guess things have gotten more serious with us then?" Spencer queried feeling guilty as if she was cheating on Toby with Wren.
"It's nothing too serious, just if you need to crash here before I get home you can always sleep in my guest room." Wren said rubbing the back of his neck awkwardly.
"Thank you. I seriously can't thank you enough for everything you've done for me this far. I honestly would have never guessed I could trust you after all this time even with this secret. I just hope no one else in school finds out about this like Noel Kahn. You know how he gets when he learns your deepest darkest secrets." Spencer replied feeling anxiety building up inside her system.
"Who cares what Noel or any of those so called popular dumb jocks think in your school. They are below you anyway. You are like no other girl there at Rosewood High. Your friends care about you and that's all that should matter to you." Wren said taking Spencer's hands in his nervously.
"I know that popularity isn't something I've ever craved I just want to fit in for once. But thank you for saying that. I appreciate it greatly. You're the sweetest kindest man ever. Any girl is lucky to have you as their doctor." Spencer replied not letting go of Wren's grip on her hands.
"You always have me and your best friends in school so no matter what just finish high school strong." Wren said giving Spencer a meaningful heartfelt hug. "You're the smartest woman I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. I just want you to finish off strong so you get into the best law school possible, sweetheart."
"You know me too well. I study until my social life is totally nonexistent." Spencer said guffawing.
Spencer doesn't let go of Wren hugging her feeling safe and secure in his arms.
"Are you okay? You haven't let go of me since I hugged you." Wren asked laughing nervously.
"I'm sorry, It's just being here with you makes me feel happy and safe even if it's temporarily. You always know what to say to make me feel better." Spencer said looking up at Wren smiling slightly.
"I'm being dead serious about you using that key. You can crash here if being at your parent's house is too much for you. I know they aren't exactly handling this situation with delicacy." Wren replied.
"I know. I just don't want you to get tired of seeing this face every single day." Spencer said laughing at her sardonic joke.
"I would never ever get tired of seeing your beautiful face here every single night. Any man would be lucky to have a child with you. And if Toby doesn't realize that then he's not meant to be with you forever." Wren replied caressing Spencer's face before giving her a kiss on the cheek and on the forehead.
