"It is those we live with and love and should know who elude us."

*EDITED*

I rush into the office yawning.

My hair was in a simple pony tail and I had no makeup on.

'This is what happens when you sleep in Becca' I think to myself as I walk into the break room and start to make myself I cup of coffee.

The door open and JJ walks in, "wow you look great today." She says and starts to make herself a cup as well.

"Oh haha" I say, "I barely got any sleep last night so I didn't wake up in time to actually do something with myself."

"Why couldn't you sleep?" JJ asks concerned.

"Just was up reading that's all." I say and I pick up my cup, "see you later." I say as I leave the room.

I sit down at my desk and yawn, pulling out paper work I need to fill out.

"Well look at sleeping beauty today." Morgan says referring to my nickname he gave me in the hospital.

"You look great!" He says sarcastically.

"Shut up." I mumble not bothering to stop working.

"What happened to you?" He asks chuckling.

"Books. Books happened to me." I mumble.

"You're starting to sound like Reid." I hear Morgan laugh as he walks over to his desk.

I roll my eyes and continue to work.

I walk into the break room and start to heat up some tea. I sit on the counter as I wait.

Spencer walks in holding his mug and walks over to the coffee pot and starts brewing.

"Hey." He says coming over to me, leaning against the counter, his hands slightly brushing against my leg.

"Hi." I say awkwardly. "Sorry about not giving you that ride this morning"

"It's fine, Emily drove me. What's wrong?" He asks turning to face me.

"Nothing just tired." I say, the microwave going off in the background telling me my tea is ready.

I get off the counter and go over to the microwave and grab my drink.

"You know tea is better brewed in the pot."

"I know but someone is using the pot for their coffee." I say looking at Spencer.

He smiles, "that is true."

I walk back over to him and sit back on the counter.

"Aren't going back to work?" He asks.

"I will. Just not right this second." I say taking a sip of the tea.

I watch Spencer pour his finished coffee into his cup and starts to grab packets of sugar.

"Why do you use so much sugar?" I ask laughing a little.

"Well supposedly most coffee beans have enough caffeine to keep you awake and energized for 7 hours but the agency is to cheap to buy the good coffee so our coffee keeps you energized for 2 and awake for a total of 6." He starts pouring the sugar in.

"So the sugar, even though makes you more tired after the energy goes away, keeps you energized longer. Plus it makes the coffee taste better."

I let out a small laugh, "sorry I'm rambling." Spencer says taking a sip of his drink.

He heads over to the door and opens it, "coming?" He asks holding open the door.

"In a little bit." I say with a slight smile.

"Ok see you later." He says starting to walk out the door, "you look beautiful today by the way." Spencer says before leaving the room and closing the door.

I close the final folder and sigh.

I grab my bag and pull out Spencer's copy of Othello that I managed to finish last night.

I grab a sticky note and a pen and start to write on it.

Thanks for keeping me up all night!
~ Becca

I stick the note on the book and place the book on Spencer's desk.

I grab the rest of my things and go to my car and head to my apartment.

When I walk inside my house I throw my stuff on the couch and go into the kitchen area and start heating up left overs for dinner.

I quickly eat and set my dishes in the sink and go to my room and change out of my work clothes into some pajamas.

As I slip under my covers and turn off the light my phone lights up.

I grab my phone and unlock it, reviling a text from Spencer.

I knew you'd like it :)

He says referring to Othello.

I smile and let out a small laugh and quickly reply then set down my phone and go to sleep.

I know this is short don't pressure me.

This is the second time I wrote it cause I accidentally deleted it the first time so I ended up cutting things cause I'm honestly too lazy to rewrite...sorry.

Anyway final part will be up by the last day of school (which for me is June 4) then shortly after I'll have my birthday (which is June 9 for anyone who cares) then I'll start on the second book!

I'm excited for the final chapter...:)

Anyway bye for now!
