Spencer James

"Spencer" Olivia said in a sleepily voice. She reached her hand over on the right side of the bed, frowning when she realized Spencer hadn't been next to her.

"You lookin' for me, hm?" Spencer inquired as he entered the bedroom with his shirt and shoes in his hands. "You slept good?" he questioned as he sat on the edge of the bed.

"I slept great, babe. Though, I was expecting my husband to be next to me" Olivia smiled as she turned on her back, stretching her arms above her head. "Three days into marriage and it still doesn't feel real" she glanced at the rock on her finger.

"It hasn't hit me yet either" Spencer smiled as he glanced back at Olivia. "It feels like a dream" he placed his shoes on his feet.

"Where are you going?" Olivia questioned as she watched Spencer tie his shoes.

"I've got a meeting with Sean and Khalil in about an hour. I'm going to mention possibly relocating the store and see where we go from there" Spencer briefly explained. "I have a suggestion on how to fix the occurring issues but that's the final resort" he glanced back at Olivia.

"What's the suggestion?" she raised an eyebrow.

"I offer Ace and his boys a job" Spencer answered and Olivia scrunched her face. "I know it sounds crazy...but it may actually work. I know Ace is upset I didn't agree to go with him that night to make the money. I figured if he'd work for me, make money the legal way, this animosity he has against me will subside" he explained.

"Babe" Olivia crossed her arms. "I mean, I'm not against you offering jobs to people, those that are deserving of it. But to someone that has caused harm to your store and even you...I don't think hiring Ace would be the best idea" she continued.

"I know it's not the best solution, but I don't know what else to do" Spencer shrugged. "I'll see what Khalil and Sean have to say and then figure it out from there. After the meeting I'ma head to Home Depot to get some moving boxes. I've got to start packin' this apartment up since I'ma be outta here soon" he said.

"I'm going to miss this place" Olivia glanced around his room and Spencer smiled. "But I know in the long run this move will be what's best for our family" she continued.

"Mmh hm. It will only be temporary, I've got to stack more money, and then we should be good" Spencer turned on the bed to face her. "Maybe in the next year and a half we'll have our own apartment" he hovered on top of her.

"We're getting a house in Malibu" Olivia corrected him, causing Spencer to chuckle.

"Happy wife, happy life" Spencer conceded and Olivia smiled. "I've got to get goin' though" he leaned forward, pecking her lips.

"Right now?" Olivia questioned and Spencer nodded his head. "Do you have...a few minutes?" she glanced at the alarm clock on the dresser.

"You just can't get enough of me" Spencer smirked and Olivia smiled. "I'll always make time for you" he said and she smiled once more.

"Mmmh. I like the sound of that" Olivia glanced at his lips and then back at his eyes. Spencer then sealed the space between them with a passionate kiss. Olivia parted her lips, allowing Spencer's tongue to engulf her mouth. She moaned as she devoured Spencer's lips, wrapping her legs around his torso.
