A/N: I'm baaaaaaack :) Sorry it took me so long. When I picked up last time I messed up a few things and I apologize. So here's where things are…

This is the 4th week Spencer and Toby have been dating

Spencer's ex is Michael who was abusive and horrible until she finally got the guts to leave him.

Toby's mother died when he was 12, from cancer.

Aria is engaged to Ezra, Em is dating Noel, Han is married to Caleb.

Thank you for whoever has stayed with this story.

Spencer sits at her desk, reading a case that just fell in her lap a few minutes ago. It's a rather intriguing case file. Kellie Lewis, her client, is on trial for the murder of her best friend, Christine Reynolds. This murder is unspeakably brutal. Ms. Lewis stabbed her alleged friend 32 times. A crease forms between Spencer's eyebrows. How could someone do this? And to their best friend? How can I defend this? She thinks to herself. One of the hardest parts about being a lawyer for Spencer is not letting your emotions cloud you defending your client.

"She needs to plead insanity, that's the only way we do this." She says as she glances at Ms. Lewis' medical record.

According to the medical records, Ms. Lewis has been diagnosed with Schizophrenia from the age of 15. Maybe she cracked, or hallucinated Ms. Reynolds as someone or something else. In the police report, when they took her statement it says that Ms. Lewis had no remorse. It took them 46 days to find the body, which means she knew what she was doing, instead of just explaining to the police that day what she had done, she decided to hide the body. Spencer decides to look through the crime scene photos, that was indescribable in the worst way. There is one old and crinkled photo though, that was found on the victim, of the two friends laughing with each other what it seems to be like a playground. The crime scene photos are gruesome and disgusting. No one would wish this death upon their worst enemy. She closes her eyes and takes a breath. Don't put your emotions in the way of your job. It's just a job. It's not my life. My feelings don't matter here. She tells herself. She closes the file and starts and starts typing her opening for the trial in 3 weeks.

As she starts typing, she glances down at the charm bracelet Toby gave her last Friday. She smiles softly and touches her lips absentmindedly as she remembers the searing kisses that followed, after he gave her this thoughtful gift. I have to call him, she thinks to herself, I miss his voice, his touch… Her thoughts become wayward, so she quickly finishes her statement, proofreads it and calls her man.

"Spencer." His warm voice caresses her name when her answers her phone call.

"Hi, Toby." She smiles, his voice filling her with affection.

"Hey babe. How's your day going?"

She sighs. "It's been a crappy day so far, but hearing your voice soothes me."

He chuckles softly. "Yea, I've had an interesting day as well. One of my construction managers is sick so I had to come on site a project today, which is inconvenient. I like delegating, its much easier to run a company that way."

She laughs. "Lazy."

"Why's your day been so rough?" He says, the concern in his voice evident.

"I have this case… I can't really talk about it, but it's just horrible and makes me question myself as a lawyer."

He's taken aback by her response. "Oh, I'm sorry baby."

"Yea."

"I'm glad you called Spence, I miss you. I want to see you."

"I always want to see you and talk and kiss and—"

"Ms. Hastings you're so naughty today." He says with a smile. "Come over, I'll take you to dinner and afterward we can go back to the loft. I'll give you a massage and do other things to make you relax, since you had a hard day." He says seductively, and it works, Spencer almost forgot to respond, thinking of Toby's hands on her back, in between her shoulders, all over her body...

"Spence, you there?"

"Hm? Yes." She says broken out of her reverie. "Yes, baby that sounds wonderful, thank you."

"Okay, I got to go back to work, I'll see you around 7?"

"Yea, I can't wait."

"Me neither, bye beautiful." He says sweetly.

"Bye." She hangs up with a shy smile as she bites her bottom lip.

She shakes her head in amusement, picks up another file and starts writing notes.

Spencer enters her mother's office to discuss some of her cases before she leaves for her date with Toby.

"Hey mom, can you look over these opening statements for me? I was having a lot of trouble with the Lewis case so go over that one if you don't have time to go over the other ones."

"Yea I thought you might have trouble with that one, it was supposed to be mine, but I told them to hand it over to you because I have too many cases right now and I think you can handle it." Ms. Hastings says with a smile on her face. "You have such a caring heart, which is one of the many things I love about you but you know you have to put that aside when doing these kinds of cases, love."

"I know mom. I'll see her on Monday to discuss the insanity plead and try to get a deal."

"Okay, sounds good. You going to see Toby tonight?"

Spencer smiles shyly at the thought of his name. She told her parents she was dating again last week sometime, when she was helping her mother with a dinner party she had. She know her mother is asking because she's taking off work a whole hour early.

"Yea, I have a good feeling about us mom, the way he makes me feel… it doesn't feel like anything I've ever felt before."

"Well, your father and I can't wait to meet him, in fact we're both glad you're finally dating after Michael."

Spencer shudders. "Yea mom, I'll invite him over the house. I'll see you later."

"Bye sweetheart, have fun."

Spencer arrives at Toby's loft and knocks on his door. What she finds behind the door was very displeasing to her, a disheveled Toby, his hair a mess only in a t-shirt and boxers. Wtfalalalala is going on? I got dolled up for him and he was SLEEP?! NO.

"Ummmm Toby?" I say anger emanating from me.

"I totally forgot about our date. I'm so sorry." He says groggily as if he just woke up.

Spencer is so pissed and hurt she just wants to cry. "I'm just going to go home."

As I'm about to turn on my heels, he grabs my wrist.

"No, please don't go. Let me get myself ready and we can get something from downstairs."

"No it's okay."

"Please, Spencer." He says with a pout.

"Fine, just hurry up." Spencer says through gritted teeth.

He smiles brightly. "Thank you! Come in." After he closes the door, he runs to his bedroom to get ready.

I can't believe he has me waiting for him. I'm so pissed that he forgot about our date. Maybe I was wrong about him and he really is a–

Spencer's thoughts are interrupted when he comes out of the bedroom, hair looking perfect, dressed in a black button down and a marbled sweater over top it and in black jeans.

"Ready to go?" He says with a smile and holds out his arm for her to take. Spencer ignores him and walks out the door. He walks fast to catch up with her. Spencer is walking toward the café so he grabs hold of her hand and takes her towards the kitchen area of the coffee shop. She looks at him confused but he says;

"Trust me."

He opens the door and she was not expecting to see what lay before her eyes. The room is dimly lit and there is a lone table in the middle of the room that is candlelit with a floor hitting white tablecloth. To my right is a kitchen, just an island on one side and a stovetop with an oven on the bottom. There is also refrigerator in the corner. There are rose petals all over the floor on the table and in the chairs seated at the table. There is champagne in an ice bucket on the table, with the champagne glasses on either side. It's beautiful.

Spencer whips her head to Toby's to thank him, instead she is greeted with his lips, engaging her in a passionate kiss as his hands find her waist and hers find his face. He presses her against him and deepens their kiss. He pulls away to catch his breath and puts his forehead against hers.

"I fell asleep after preparing all this, but as you can see I didn't forget." He says with a smile, just holding her.

She kisses him again softly, "You really thought about our date, didn't you?"

He furrows his brows "Of course I did. I always want to see that gorgeous smile of yours." He says he caresses my face, his thumb running back and forth on my cheek.

She smiles and is almost in tears, no one has ever done anything this sweet for her.

"Thank you." She says before she grabs his face and brings it toward hers to kiss him again, hard and he moans in her mouth but pulls away. Spencer is confused.

"At this point," he says, "we won't be eating dinner."

After Toby takes out our dinner from the refrigerator and heats it up he brings it to the table.

"Voilà! I have made you pasta with shrimp in a white wine reduction." He says in a fake french accent, which makes Spencer laugh. He pours them both a glass of the white chardonnay.

"Can I ask you a question?" Spencer asks as she starts eating.

"Anything, you know that." He responds.

"Who was stupid enough to let you go?"

Toby chuckles. "I don't know how to answer that, all I can say is some women like challenges and I try not to be one."

"You know when I was little," Spencer says. "My sister always told me that I was nothing. She not only said it but she treated me like it. Anytime I got an A in a class she got an A+, when I took up French she already knew Chinese. So after a while I started believing her. But when I'm with you, I finally feel worthy and valued. And I think that's why I was so upset that you forgot about our date, because then, all of those feelings would go out the door and I'd loose faith in us."

Toby picks up her hand and presses both of theirs over his heart. He says "With every touch, every kiss, every thought of you, my heart pounds in my chest. You. Are. Beautiful. You are smart, witty, and accomplished, someone as breathtaking and unique as you are should never feel inadequate. You won't ever have to worry about me treating you any less than you should."

This sentiment makes her smile. "You are very sweet, Toby." She says as she slips her hand away from his to continue eating. "This food is delicious."

"Thank you, I learned how to cook at a young age. Around the time my mom died, my father had a cancer scare, so he taught me how to take care of myself in case something happen to him. But he's as healthy as an ox." Toby smiles. "You done with your plate?"

After we clear the table and blow out all the candles, we make our way back upstairs. Suddenly, Toby pushes Spencer against the wall near the stairs and starts kissing her. She is taken by surprise needless to say, but she kisses him back, matches his intensity. He moans as his hands travel up and down over her curves. He breaks from the kiss and pulls the end strands of her hair to expose her neck. He starts placing open-mouthed kisses on her neck and she moans appreciatively. He feels her hands come underneath his shirt holding him against her. At this he looks up at her.

"Sorry, I just couldn't help myself anymore." He looks down into her eyes as their panting subsides. He kisses her open lips softly. She is speechless. "Come, let me give you that massage I promised."

As they go upstairs, Spencer thinks to herself what my happen next.

A/N: How was that? Don't worry I'll be very explicit in details on what happens *wink*. Also, just wanted to say that mental illnesses are no joke and I am not saying people with mental illnesses are killers, that would make me one. In fact my grandmother had schizophrenia. So please don't be confused by this part of Spencer's case, insanity in law means mentally ill. Please review guys and thank you so so much for staying with me! Love ya, see you next week.
