The closing on the house went through without a hitch and soon Spencer and John found themselves buying furniture and house decor and moving in. John had a bunch of guys at the house this weekend since they were all off for a couple days helping move furniture in as Spencer and the girls were putting pictures up,, and dishes away, and decorating as they unpack things. It was so nice to have help, and Spencer and John finally had a home together. Carol helped Spencer paint last weekend, and John SR went out to get patio furniture, and a grill for the deck and had it set up. The house was coming together perfectly.
"Hey Spencer John wanted me to ask you where you want the couch?" Shamus asked.
"Um,...Just infront of the picture window please."
"Anything for you doll." He and Kofi sat it down as John carried in a few boxes for the bedroom and Randy brought in the coffee table.
Spencer stuck the dishes and food away when her cell phone rang. She didn't recognize the number. "Hello?"
"Spencer?"
"Yea?...Who is this?" Spencer walked out to the back deck so she could hear better.
"You don't recognise my voice? I thought you'd know my voice from anywhere."
Spencer let the words sink in, and really listened. "Dad?"
"I'm wanting you to come see me."
"Wait a second, how did you get my number?"
Her father laughed a little bit. "It's a funny story, seems my new cell mate is a friend of yours. From what I hear you act just like your mother."
"Daniel." Spencer couldn't believe it Daniel was her father's cell mate. The world had an ironic sense of humor. "I'm not going to come see you. I've left go of the past, and I don't want anything to do with you, or your cell mate." Spencer hung up, and went back inside to finish the kitchen up. They were grilling later and she wanted to have at least the dishes done.
She was helping Eve hang curtains in the livingroom when John wrapped his arms around her. "Welcome home." He kissed her neck and looked out the window as she brought her hands down to her arms.
"I can't believe we have a house, and next month we'll be married, and starting a family."
"I can't wait to look out that window and see a little you or me running around causing trouble." Spencer laughed turning around to face John and kiss him.
"Everyone the burger's ,and hot dogs are done!" Carol yelled inside. Everyone made their way out to the picnic table and the patio table to eat before they finished up some stuff that evening and the happy couple could spend their first night alone in their new house.
Spencer took a shower that night and then walked into the bedroom after getting dressed to see John making their bed that they picked out together and smiled. She helped him finish up and put the pillows on before they got into bed together. John wrapped his arms around her and brought her lips up to kiss him. The kiss intensified and pretty soon they were breaking their first night in their new home in the best way possible. Their bodies fit together so perfectly as they both rocked back and forth. This is how it would be for them all the time as the time approached for the wedding.
John woke early the next morning found his boxers, covered Spencer's naked body then went out to start breakfast.
Spencer woke got dressed, and went out to join John when she smelled the bacon frying up.
"Morning baby." John said when she came into the kitchen.
"Morning. How did you sleep?"
"Pretty good. I wanna start on the basement today if that's ok."
"Sure." Spencer poured herself some juice. "I'm going to get the bathrooms set up, and use one of the spare rooms for boxes right now that aren't important so I can unpack them a little at a time."
"We got everything else done yesterday. I'm going to pick up Mark and Randy to go get the pool table after breakfast. Do you wanna go?"
"Um...no. I'm starting to feel a little sick on my stomach again so I'll just stay here and get some things done so I can maybe relax a little bit."
John stuck a plate infront of her and kissed her forehead. "Ok baby. I'll get you some ginger ale while I'm out."
"OK thanks Babe."
John left and Spencer got everthing done fast then she went to finish their bedroom so she could maybe lay down a bit.
John and the guys got back later that day with the pool table and everything he wanted for down in the "man cave" they all walked in first and nioticed how quiet it was. John got the guys a drink and then went back to the bedroom and saw Spencer laying on the bed. He leaned down and kissed her head.
"Are you still tired baby?"
Spencer stretched a little. "I was but I feel ok now. Did you get everything?"
John smiled.. "Oh yea. We're going to get it all in now. If you need anything I'll be downstairs, I put your ginger ale in the fridge."
"Ok, thanks hon."
John kissed her again then went to help get everything inside.
Spencer went to start some laundry that they both accumulated at his Mom's and get it finished and put away. Her cell phone rang, and it was another unrecognizable number.
"Hello?"
"Your mine, and you always will be. I'll get you back for this and you wont even see it coming."
Spencer hung up and dropped her phone her hands shaking. She knew that voice better than she knew her own it seemed. It still came to her in nightmares of their time together. "JOHN!" She ran to the basement steps and ran into John as he was running up the steps after hearing her scream bloody murder. Spencer had tears streaming down her face.
"Baby what, what?" John held her back a little bit.
Randy and Mark were right behind him.
"He...He...HE CALLED ME! "
"Baby who?" John was having trouble catching up with the conversation.
"Daniel...He called me." Spencer sobbed into John chest. "How can he do that?"
John rubbed her back. "It wont happen again. I'm going to change your number."
John got Spencer settled down called the cell provider and had her number changed then he sent out a text message letting everyone in her contacts know that her number was changed and why then put her phone back on the dresser in the bedroom. He looked in the mirror as the thought occured to him that she would never get full freedom from Daniel but he was gonna try his hardest to give her everything and not let him ruin their life together.
Spencer was sitting on the couch with her knees drawn up to her chest. JOhn sat down beside her.
"Babe he can't get you. He's in jail."
"I know." Spencer whispered. "Still...he's capable of anything. He stabbed me John, what if he can find another way to hurt me?"
"I won't let that happen."
Mark came and kneeled infront of her. "We wont let that happen. When John is gone and your here Tina can come stay for a while, I'll come check on you all teh time cause I'm just down the road. John's brother's will come stay and I know Carol, and Sr will be in and out. You got family around and we will keep you safe ok."
Spencer nodded. They were right.
"Not only that but you know your gonna have a lot of us around when we don't have shows to come keep you company to. The girls will be here a lot for the wedding stuff." Randy said. "Also I know Philip and Dave were gonna stop in one day this week coming cause they have an autograph session at the mall. "
John nodded. "Yea they can crash here for teh night so they don't have to travel to much the day of."
"But I don't have the other rooms done yet."
John smiled at the fact that Spencer was worried about that.
"Babe we got 2 couches. They should be fine."
John took the guys home later that day after they had pizza and then come back to find Spencer sitting on the floor going through a box in the one spare room.
"What are you doing?"
"Just looking at some old pictures I think. It's a box from my aunts house and it's from when I was in school. I found a couple pics of my mom...I wish she could see how my life is heading."
"She does babe." John sat with her to look at the pics picking up some from the box to look at. "You were really cute here in your little cheer outfit."
"That would be my freshman year. We had so much fun at games."
"This one must be prom." John showed ehr the picture.
"Yup." She said taking it from him. "That's my date Corey, and then that Levi, and Jessica."
"Wow. Here's a look I have never seen." John said laughing.
Spencer looked at the picture She was wearing her glasses, a pair of plaid boxers and a striped tank top the was zebra, she looked like a hot mess with her hair in a messy bun.
"Oh my god. That was at a lockdown. Our school had look downs against drugs, and bullying. So when you were at a lock down you had to just be you no popular kids, no cool clothes just dress as bad as you could because then there were no cliques it was just a bunch of kids in the same group no differences. I wasn't gonna wear my contacts. I was dressed for comfort. Don't worry that look is staying in the box." Spencer laughed putting the picture back in the box at the very bottom.
They looked through some more stuff and cleared a couple boxes then stuck items they were saving in another box to go in the garage before going to bed for the night. Spencer couldn't wait for the internet and cable to get hooked up monday.
