So this chapter is insanely short and I apologize. It has Spencer's point of view though, so that's a good thing.


Teddy's Point of View:

We were at the top of the stairs and I shouted, "We're coming upstairs. We have Charlie with us and we don't need to scar her for life."

Spencer laughed and took my hand in his. He gave it a squeeze and kissed the top of my head. We stood on the steps until we heard Ivy yell that it was okay for us to come upstairs.

Once we got to the top I walked into the kitchen and sat Charlie in her highchair. I looked through the medicine cabinet for the thermometer and let out a little cheer when I found it. I knew Charlie hated getting her temperature taken so I gave her a bowl with a lid on it and marbles inside to distract her while I took it.

When it dinged I saw that it was 101 degrees. That was so not good. I grabbed some baby ibuprofen and poured it into the little cap thing. Grabbing her cup of juice I walked over to the highchair, giving the medicine to her and then the juice cup.

Spencer pushed through the kitchen door and gave me a sympathetic smile. "What' the diagnosis, doc? Is she sick?"

"Yeah, she had a pretty high fever but I gave her ibuprofen, I hope it works," I said, leaning into his chest. "I feel stupid; I don't know what to do."

He wrapped his arms around me and whispered, "You're doing just fine, I'm sure she'll be just fine. She'll be okay, I'm sure of it."

I nodded and pulled away from him. I picked Charlie up from the highchair and bounced her on my hip. Her fingers locked in my hair and she laid her head on my shoulder, sucking her thumb into her mouth. I felt her lay her forehead against my neck and her forehead was still on fire.

I walked over to Spencer and he pulled me into a hug. I shivered slightly and thought that if I was cold than Charlie must be freezing. I pulled away from Spencer and walked back down into the basement. I went into my room and pulled my comforter off my bed and dragged it into the basement.

"Come here, lay with me until you get warm again," Spencer said.

I looked over at him and saw him laying back against the chair arm with his arms open to me. I walked over and lay between his legs with Charlie lying up on my chest. She rolled over onto her stomach and soon fell asleep. I smiled and pulled the comforter up over us.

"I love you so much Teddy, I want it to always be this simple with us. I don't want anything to mess us up," Spencer murmured into my ear quietly.

I nodded and felt my eyelids dropping at little bit. I burrowed into Spencer a little bit more and felt myself falling asleep. I let out a content sigh and let it take me.

Spencer's Point of View:

I lay there with Teddy in my arms thinking about how much of a dick I was. I cheated on her and made her cry, I don't know if I could ever forgive myself for that. She was everything I ever wanted; she was so freakin' perfect it made me want to be a better person.

I felt her pull Charlie closer to her in her sleep and couldn't fight my smile. She was so good with her; I knew she would be a great mother one day. I hoped it was me that she had kids with but that was really far in the future and I wasn't going to think about that right now.

"Spence?" I heard a voice ask from the steps. "It's Ray."

"Shh, man be quiet. They're asleep," I said, looking up at him as he walked over to me. "What do you want, bro?"

"Do you have any condoms on you? I'm out of them," he asked.

I couldn't come out and tell him that I was a virgin, that wasn't cool. Especially seeing as he was the farthest thing from one. I decided to stick as close to the truth as I could.

"I don't have any. Mrs. Duncan would kick your ass if she knew you were about to fuck on her couch," I said with a smile.

"Whatever man, I just need one really bad. If you catch my drift," he said wiggling his eyebrows at me. "Seriously bad."

"Okay dude, I understand what you're saying but I can't just magically make them appear," I said, running a hand through my hair.

"Thanks for nothing man, you're a lifesaver," he said as he walked up the stairs to the living room. He was dragging his feet like a freakin' child. Wow.

"Thanks for that," a sleepy voice said. "I appreciate it."

I smiled and said, "Anything for you baby. But I seriously don't have any on me, he was out of luck."

She looked up at me with sleepy eyes and said, "Does Ray not know that you're a virgin, Spencer? Are you lying to your best friend or me?"

I answered as quickly as I could, "Him! Oh God, I'm lying to him. I would never lie to you about something like that. I would never lie to you about anything, boo."

She seemed happy with my answer and lay back down. I kissed the top of her head and felt her slowly relax against me. Before I fell asleep with her I though one more time about how lucky I was to have her.

"You're my girl, Teddy Duncan. You'll always be mine and no one else's." I kissed the top of her head once more before I fell asleep.
