"I love you Olivia"

He says it again, hoping she heard him. He should've done so many things differently, but he couldn't lose her again. Olivia looked up with big, wide, brown eyes swimming in emotions.

"I love you, too" Now it was his turn to be stunned.

"I'm pretty sure I was falling in love with you that first night we laid in bed and talked. Or maybe it was the morning we were tangled up and you didn't try anything. Could've been when you made me my favorite cup of coffee, which was very sweet of you. Maybe it was before then when you went crazy and told me I was moving to Harlem and marrying you. I don't know if I can pinpoint the exact moment, but I know now that there hasn't been one where I've wanted to be with anyone but you. When you let me leave, I couldn't breathe, Spencer. I fought myself from calling you or driving there to make you see how wrong you were about us" He watched as her face softened.

"I didn't love you because we were having an baby, I love you because you're my other half"

His arms wrap around her, pulling her close. They stand in the living room of her place as it hit him.

"So, does that mean, you forgive me?" She nods her head eagerly.

"You want me?" She nodded again.

"You'd stay here if I asked you?"

"Only on one condition" She grins.

"I'm listening"

"I move in here, no more being apart from each other. We've done enough of that to last an life time" Liv's eyes lit up.

"I missed you" Her hands slipped up his arms, hooking them around his neck.

"I missed this"

Her lips pressed to his, as she backed up before he could keep her in place. He brushed his thumb across her lips since she took them away from his mouth, watching as her eyes closed and an shiver traveled through her frame.

"You sure? Because I can't lose you again"

"Positive. I tried imagining it"

"Imagining?"

"Watching you leave again. I tried picturing my life without you. These last few weeks have been unbearable" Liv's voice trembled.

"I can't do that again. I can't leave you. Not when I feel like this. Not when it hurts so damn much. Everything hurts"

"You love me" He says the words like an proven statement.

"Do you love me, Spencer? Really love me? Love me enough to never hurt me like that again? I need to know you'll be here for me, no matter what"

Olivia was strong most of the time, but she let him see her insecurities and flaws. Olivia played tough girl, but Spencer knew the real her, he knows what family she grew up in, and how she worried about never being enough. Her mom and brothers did an real number on her, with the exception of Jordan who loved her dearly and he wanted to take that pain away and show her she's worth everything he has. He'd never forsake that.

"I do honestly, deeply and truly love you."

The words came straight from his heart.

"I wanna make you happy and prove I'm the man you fell in love with"

The problem he had was that he believed that guy died in the car crash. Olivia knew the real Spencer, everyone but him did. He got so wrapped up in his own head, he couldn't see the truth. He couldn't sleep because everytime he closed his eyes, he saw her unconscious. He couldn't go to an fishing pole because he had to walk past his daughter. The one he held, loved, and lost. It took him losing her and angry words from Kianna to help him see that the only thing he was responsible for was letting her leave.
