Ok so I know this is short but the last two chapters were extremely long. I hope you like this chapter! Please review!
"I really thought it would be positive this time" Spencer pouted "we'll keep trying" she said smiling weakly.
"Yeah, we'll keep trying" he said brushing her hair out of her face and kissing her lightly on the lips.
"Let's go take a nap" Spencer said.
Toby followed her thinking she was looking for sex until she curled up with a pillow. He curled up beside her and Spencer pulled his arm around her so his hand was on her belly. She woke a few hours later.
"I had a dream I was pregnant" she said sleepily.
"Can we pretend I'm pregnant for a few minutes and you talk to the baby?" Spencer asked shyly. Toby thought it was a little weird but he went with it. He kissed her belly telling the pretend baby that they couldn't wait to meet him or her. After he was done she kissed him.
"I love you" she said
"I love you too" he replied. They got up and went downstairs. Spencer was showing Toby the baby things when the phone rang again he went to go get it and saw it was the same caller as before.
"Listen I don't know what you want with my wife or what you had with her but she is mine, we are in love, and we're having a baby" he yelled in a whisper. He could see Spencer putting little baby outfits on her stomach and it warmed his heart until the man on the phone spoke again.
"She actually has you believing that story?" He scoffed "wake up! There is no baby, there isn't going to be a baby!"
Toby hung up. This man was seriously starting to piss him off. Who was he? And how does he know she's not pregnant? And how does he know there won't be a baby soon?
He was about to go into the front room and ask Spencer this but he hears her groan "I'd kill for a cup of coffee" and he pours a cup and brings it to her setting it down in front of her.
"Toby, I can't drink coffee I'm pregnant" she said smiling at him. "I have to do everything right, I don't want to lose this one" she rubbed her belly.
"Are we still pretending, because you took a test a few hours ago and it was negative" he asked chuckling slightly. She glared at him before turning and going back upstairs. He went up after her and heard her sniffling. He pulled her into his arms.
"I'm sorry" he said rocking her back and forth not sure why he was apologizing.
*Two weeks later*
"So the kids are getting their casts off today" Veronica said to Peter, Melissa, and Wren. "They're all coming over for dinner"
"So this reconciliation is gonna stick?" Melissa asked.
"Looks like it" Veronica said.
"You know I walked into a private moment between them" Wren said "he was rubbing her belly, maybe they got back together because she's pregnant"
They all mulled this over as the door bell rang.
"Grandma!" Lydia yelled throwing herself at Veronica. She hugged her tightly followed by Sebastian and then Spencer.
"Have you put on weight?" She asked thinking about what Wren had said.
"No, mom but thanks for letting me know I look fat" Spencer scoffed.
"I didn't mean" she trailed off. She loved being a grandma and the thought that another grandchild was on the way delighted her. Veronica got even more excited when Spencer declined wine at dinner.
When they were settled in the living room with their coffee Toby spoke.
"We were wondering if you would watch the kids next Friday?" He asked the Hastings. "It's mine and Spencer's 10 year anniversary and I have something special planned."
They nodded as Toby kissed her head. She'd already started drifting off to sleep against Toby's shoulder. Toby took that as a sign that it was time to go. They said their goodbyes and got in the car. Toby got the kids ready for bed. When they were both tucked in he went to his and Spencer's room and was surprised to see her laying on the bed naked. They hadn't been having as much sex lately but it was clear she wanted it tonight. He eagerly undressed and slipped into the sheets with her. She got on top riding him hard. He watched her horniness increase as she became desperate for orgasm. Toby pulled her close grinding into her just the right way in just the right spot and he could feel Spencer gushing as she around as she came as she shrieked "fuck baby!" into his ear.
The next morning Toby over heard Spencer on the phone.
"No, I don't want to see you, I don't need to see you, I'm back with my husband now, I don't need it anymore"
Toby figured it must have been that guy from before. He continued eavesdropping.
"No, I haven't told him, no it would hurt him so bad. He never has to know."
"No, I don't want to see you" she repeated.
"Fine, 11 o'clock on Tuesday, yeah your place"
Toby walked in as Spencer hung up the phone.
"Who was that?" He asked nonchalantly.
"That was Victor, we've been working together" Spencer said.
"It's not more than that?" He asked suspiciously.
"It's 100% platonic, I promise" Spencer said cupping his face and kissing him. He didn't want to start a fight so he dropped it.
The next day at therapy Toby wanted to get everything out in the open before the big night on Friday.
"Is there anything you want to tell me Spencer?" He asked pointedly during their session.
"No, other than I love you and I'm so glad we're beginning again" she said.
"Toby is something bothering you?" The therapist asked.
"Yeah, she's been acting funny for the last few weeks and she won't let me take her to the doctors"
"He thinks I'm pregnant" Spencer said smiling a little "I keep taking the home pregnancy tests and they're negative"
"Spencer maybe you and Toby should go see the doctor, is there a reason why you don't want to go to the doctor?"
"No, no of course not" Spencer said smiling. "I'll make an appointment"
"What about Victor?!" Toby yelled "I know you're going to his place tomorrow I heard you on the phone yesterday. So who is he your boyfriend, your drug dealer are you on drugs again?!"
Spencer turned away from him and he instantly regretted his outburst.
"Aww sugarplum I'm sorry" he said putting an arm around her and kissing her.
"You upset the baby" Spencer said rubbing her belly.
"I'm sorry" he said putting his hand on her stomach while he gave the therapist a "this is what I'm talking about" look.
Spencer was cool to him the rest of the day when they were in the bathroom that night he finally spoke up.
"Spencer? Do you think you're pregnant?" He asked. Spencer froze. He wrapped his arms around her from behind.
"I'm not talking about tests or doctors or anything else, just you and me and our four hands on your belly, do you think you're pregnant?"
"Yes" she whispered quietly. Tears had started to trickle out. "I don't care what the tests say, the tests are wrong"
Toby held her as she cried eventually they went into the bedroom. Toby talked to the baby as he had before, he couldn't wait to make an appointment with the doctor. He liked the idea that the tests were wrong as opposed to Spencer being crazy.
The next morning Spencer made an appointment with her OB/GYN. She canceled her meeting with Victor and they just stayed in bed relaxing.
It was finally Friday night and Spencer was super excited for her anniversary with Toby. She had tried all night to get what Toby had planned out of Hanna but it was no use. She walked in to see Toby at the kitchen table drinking whiskey out of the bottle.
"Toby?! What is it?" Spencer asked.
*Flashback*
The clock ticked in the therapist office. Spencer was 20 mins late. He was pretty sure she'd never been 20 mins late to anything before.
"I don't think she's coming" he admitted to the therapist. He told her what had happened that weekend.
Spencer finally walked in. As she sat down Toby took her hand but she pulled it back.
"Sugarplum, apricot please forgive me, I love you so much and it wasn't what you thought you saw please, I didn't want her in the least little bit, she came on to me and I pushed her away you gotta believe me"
"I'll never forgive you for this! Ever!" She said pulling away from him.
*End of flashback*
"Baby?" Spencer asked tentatively.
"I had a nice night planned for us, I was gonna recreate our first night in the house, very romantic" he said bitterly but then after I moved all the furniture I found our "tax stuff" that went under the couch. "
"Please don't be mad" Spencer cried. "How'd you even know to open it?"
"Well for one thing you never label anything "stuff" two it was under the couch.
"You called me that night, and said you couldn't wait for me to come home, you said you had an exciting surprise"
Spencer just nodded.
"It's my fault" he cried.
"No" Spencer insisted.
She walked over and saw the big black letters.
MISCARRIAGE
Spencer pulled the pages from him.
"Don't look at that" Spencer said.
"You were pregnant again and you miscarried because of me" he cried.
"That baby wasn't meant to be, this one is" she said putting his hand on her belly. She kissed him.
"Please, I've been looking forward to the night you had planned for us." She said. He nodded and led her to the den. They made love passionately. She was overjoyed at his idea to work from home. And of course she said yes when he asked if she'd marry him once again.
Spencer and Toby went upstairs to bed.
"Happy Anniversary" Toby whispered in her ear.
"Happy Anniversary" Spencer replied.
Toby woke up to the sound of Spencer screaming and ran into the bathroom to see Spencer standing over a pool of blood.
"It's happening again!" She said looking at Toby fearfully.
"No, baby you don't know that" he said. He carried her to the car and drove to the hospital.
Oh no! Can Spencer and Toby's marriage survive another miscarriage? What do you think will happen?
Until next time my lovelies...
