Spencer arrives at Olivia's house texting her to let her know that he is outside. She quietly comes downstairs with her crutches to open the door. Spencer sees Olivia's red and puffy eyes and her overall expression. She cries a little bit before hopping close to Spencer to hug him. Spencer gives her the tightest hug, giving her the most comfort in this situation. Spencer saids to Liv while she is crying silently:

"It's ok, Liv. It's ok. I'm here." Spencer feels so bad for her. He doesn't want his girlfriend to go through trauma like this. He doesn't want fear and pain to be in her mind forever. He wants her to heal from the incident properly. Spencer is still hugging Liv before them going inside the house. He sees Liv's crutches, puts them on the stairs and quietly carry her upstairs to her room. Once they got in the room, they close the door. Spencer then puts Liv on the bed and takes off his shoes and jacket and Olivia is confused.

"Why are you taking your stuff off?" Olivia asks.

"Because I am spending the night with my baby." Spencer replies, smiling. Olivia doubts this.

"I thought you were going to be here for a little while." Olivia saids this as she cries, knowing she doesn't want to be alone. Spencer walks up to her, holding both of her hands.

"See, you crying and being scared like this is exactly why I'm spending the night. I know you Olivia. I know the feeling you hate the most... the feeling of being alone. Be honest, do you want me to stay or not?" Olivia completely breaks down as she hugs Spencer tight, not letting go.

"Please, don't leave me... (sobbing) please, Spencer, please stay with me. Don't let go. I don't want to go through this alone." Spencer tightly hugs her as he comforts her. "I got you, babe, you hear me? I got you. I'm not going anywhere. I'm never leaving you. Just remember, that you're never alone. You always got me." (See what I did there?)

Olivia smiles in his arms knowing that someone important in her life will always be her support. She looks at him and gives him a kiss on the cheek. Then Spencer helps cleans Olivia's face with a tissue. "Thank you, baby. You are so thoughtful." Olivia saids as she is calm from crying so much.

"You know I have to take care of my sweetheart..." (gives her multiple kisses on the cheek). Olivia laughs as he gives her a lot of affection. She thinks this is very cute. "Aww, Spencer, hahahahaha..." Spencer laughs as he stops. Spencer then asks: "Are you ready to get in the bed?" Olivia nods and they get in the covers holding each other.

Spencer asks about her leg to make sure it wasn't bothering her. "Hey, is your leg ok?"

"Um.. for now, yes. It hurts a little bit because of me moving it but overall I can manage." Spencer saids 'are you sure' and Olivia nods.

Spencer then starts the long awaited conversation. He was kinda nervous to ask since he was afraid that bad memories would pop up in her head again. But he knew having this talk was the only way to help.

"So, tell me. What do you see when you close your eyes?" Olivia takes a deep breath as she closes her eyes. She knows that explaining the nightmares would be the only way to help her out of this fear.

"I see, him, angry, knowing that you was in the way of his plan to be with me. He is so jealous and frustrated with you being in my life that he wanted to find a way to be with me and have me never see or be with you ever again." Spencer nods as he is fully paying attention. "Ok, keep doing. You're doing really good, baby." Olivia smiles at him knowing it is going well so far.

"He is begging me to be with him, basically for his own pleasure. He is begging and begging and begging but in the nicest way possible so that it won't sound as threatening. Even though he literally has me tied up and held captive. I say that us being together will never happen and he doesn't like that. He said he will break one of my legs... (she starts to tear up but takes a deep breath...). "

Spencer is holding on to her, comforting her. She keeps going. "He said he was going to break one of my legs if I didn't listen. I didn't believe it until he grabbed a metal pipe and pounced on my leg three times, hard, BOW! BOW! BOW!... ow..." She feels sensations from her leg as she thinks about the pain she went through as her leg was being broken.

Spencer saids: "Baby, it's ok. Your leg is fine. It's just in a cast."

"I know. But it was like I felt it all over again." Spencer sighs as he feels bad that she had to feel that pain again. Liv closes her eyes back and sees images.

"While he is breaking my leg, I scream in pain, not expecting that he was actually going to do it. He stops and he leaves to bring me food. He then gives a grilled cheese sandwich with juice. He helps me eat and drink. He was thinking that he was treating me like his sweetheart even though he was torturing me. It was hell. After a few minutes, he told me that he was going to cook dinner and that we was going to share a special moment together and I'm damn well glad that I didn't experience that." Olivia tears fall down from her face as she is angry at Asher. She's crying out of anger more than sadness.

"But just as soon as he is cooking. I hear you and Jordan yelling and beating on his crazy ass, giving yourselves the time of your lives. Then, you, J and Simone opened the door and saved me at this point. It was like God sent a miracle to me and I could not have been happier to be in your strong, safe and comfortable arms again. She smiles as she thinks of Spencer.

Spencer sees this and shakes her a little bit to open her eyes. She does and she looks at Spencer, her face puffy from tears after basically explaining the pain all over again. Spencer thinks this was a bad idea as he didn't mean to make her cry again.

"I'm so sorry, babe. I didn't mean to make you cry." Olivia gives him a kiss on the lips.

"No, it's ok actually. I guess retelling the story was like my stuck point. Feeling that pain and fear again made me overcome the demons, that was Asher, and in the end, it paid off because I was saved and I was free from that hell. You saving me was a blessing and for that, even though I said it multiple times, thank you for saving my life. I would've been even worse if you wasn't there for me." Spencer cries as he hears the raw emotions.

He gives her the most comforting hug, holding on to each other for a long time before kissing, making out. Them being into the kiss, felt like comfort but lustful at the same time since they feel so comfortable and safe around each other. They truly love each other and they are never going to stop.

Spencer and Olivia realize what they are doing and they stop. "Ha, I think we overdid it." Spencer saids, laughing softly.

"Yeah, but it was really good." Olivia saids seductively. Spencer softly moans, leans in and kiss her on the lips again quickly. After they quickly kiss, Spencer asks Olivia:

"So, how are you feeling?" Olivia honestly answers with:

"To be completely honest, I don't think I will ever forget about what happened, but with the strength that I have, I will be able to move on from it and live my life. Live my life with you." Spencer smiles at her.

"You right here by my side, you being there for whatever, you loving and caring for me, you officially becoming my safe haven, honestly, I am so in love with you and I hope that I can spend the rest of my life with you because I can't imagine my future without you in it. Whenever you aren't here near me, sometimes I just wish you were here so that I could tell you how much I need you and how hard every day has been without you. I can't imagine me being married and having kids without you. I can't imagine you going into the NFL, playing games, without me watching you in the stands. I can't see me being an author or a dancer without you being there in the crowd watching my achievements. To put it simply, I love you Spencer and thank you for this night." Spencer's tears fall down from his face, admiring these beautiful words said by his love of his life.

"Oh, Liv, I love you so much and I'm glad I could help." Spencer breaks down crying and Liv gives him another tight hug before both of them laying down and falling asleep. Spencer wraps his arms around Liv and Liv puts her hands on Spencer knowing the rest of the night will be peaceful now.

To Olivia, Spencer is part of her journey to her recovery.
