"A loving father. A loving husband. A loving coach. If anything this has taught me that we don't always have time" he looked directly at Liv. "Time isn't always on our side. Love on the ones you love. Don't go to bed angry. Life is too short. I have a whole lot of guilt built up inside of me. I had the opportunity to be proud of him instead I was angry..." he cleared his throat trying his hardest not to break. "I miss you. And you made me proud" he nodded as he looked down. "You made me damn proud. I promise I'll continue with your legacy. I'll take care of the family. Love you dad.." Spencer stepped down from the podium. Olivia stood up and threw her arms around his neck crying. He placed his hand on her lower back with his eyes closed.

It was hard to say goodbye. But I promise to keep my word to Coach Baker. I'll do whatever I can to be there for the Baker's. It was close family and friends only. Alicia was a little bent out of shape that she couldn't go. I asked her for space because I need time to grieve and be there for the Baker's. She didn't like that but it's what I need right now. Plus I want to be in my right mind to break it off with her. There's just too much going on right now. We all met up at the Baker's afterwards.
"That was a beautiful speech Spencer" Laura told him. "Thanks Mrs. Baker" she placed her hand on his shoulder before looking at everyone. "I'm going to rest" she said before walking out of the kitchen. "I'm so worried about her" Spencer mentioned. "What are you so worried about" Spencer looked at Jordan confused. "I'm sorry?" Spencer was trying to figure out what Jordan meant. "Jordan I think we should go..." Layla grabbed his hand but he pulled away. "I'm good. You had every chance to make things right with my dad Spence but instead you chose to be all pissed off at him for making a decision for himself. For choosing to Coach us again" Jordan was furious. "That's not fair Jordan" Olivia told her brother. "Like hell it is. How could you still be in love with him?" He looked at his sister before looking at Spencer "I hope it eats you alive" he bumped Spencer before leaving the kitchen. The door opened just in time for Simone to walk in. Jordan was headed upstairs but stopped when he saw her. "Simone?" She shut the door with him getting off the steps. "Sorry that I didn't make it in time. The flight kept delaying" he shook his head. "No need to apologize, I'm glad that you are here" he hugged her. "I'm here for you, always" she rubbed his back to comfort him. "Wow.." Layla spoke which caused them to pull away. "Hey Layla.." Simone was trying to polite. "Don't hey Layla me, came to collect your ex again? As far as I know he's quite comfortable" she folded her arms. "Maybe I should go.." Simone was about to open the door. "No, I want you here" Jordan told her. "Stay far away from me right now Jordan" Layla ran up the stairs. "Jordan I'm not trying to start no mess with her" Simone assured him. "I know she's just emotional right now. But I don't want to be here right now. I say we grab some lunch?" She wasn't sure if that was a good idea. "Please?" He added. "Alright, fine. But just lunch, I'm not trying to make things worse for you" she said. "You're good" she opened the door and they walked out.
Spencer was thinking about what Jordan just said. "Hey..." Olivia walked over and sat down besides. "What my brother said to you isn't true. Despite how hard things are right now, I'm glad that you are here. I know you feel guilty but you were one of my dads favorite people..." he slowly nodded. "Mine too.." he looked up at her. "Thanks Liv.. even when I don't believe in myself, you remind me why I should" he removed a lock of her twist from out of her face. "I appreciate you being here for me and checking up on me but I hope you're okay and not putting so much pressure on yourself" she spoke truthfully. "It's hard but my main focus is you right now. I need to help you through this" he told her. "I'm okay" she saw the concern look he gave her. "I mean yes I'm hurting. The pain is unbearable but I'm not gonna relapse if that's what you're thinking" he took her hand rubbing and caressed it with his thumb. "I'm glad to hear that. How bout we watch some dumb movies like old times? You choose the movie and I grab the snacks?" She gave him a side smile before nodding. "Anything to get my mind off of everything" she stood up from the stool but he didn't let her hand go. She looked down at their hands seeing him still caressing it. "I miss this" she looked at him. The doorbell rung before he could say anything. "You choose the movie, I'll get the door" she said. "Aight" he walked to the living room. She went to the door and was surprised to see Alicia. "Alicia?" Olivia wasn't sure how she got her address but wasn't in the mood to get into it. "I'll grab Spencer.." Olivia went to the living room with her arms folded. "Alicia is at the door" he looked back at her. "Really?" She nodded slowly. He stood up not wanting Liv to get the wrong idea. "I'll see what she wants" Olivia sighed when he walked to the door. "Alicia? What you doing here?" He saw that she wasn't happy. "I should be asking you the same question" she walked inside with him closing the door.

Of course Spencer would give Alicia my address.. I don't need this right now. I poured my heart out to him just to stay with her. I needed space so I went out back to swim a few laps. I needed to get my mind off of Spencer. It hurts to know that I really lost him. I had the house to myself so I decided to swim a few laps.
Spencer came into the Baker's house at midnight drunk. He pinched the skin between his eyes as he made his way to the kitchen. He opened the refrigerator and pulled out a bottle of water. Chugging it down to try and sober up. He saw Olivia swimming outside. It drawn his attention making him place the bottle on the counter. He walked out stepping closer to the pool. She pulled up when she saw his shadow placing her arms on the edge. "Hey, are you okay?" she was looking up at him worried since he left after his conversation with Alicia. "Yeah, any room for me in this pool?" He raised an eyebrow. "Of course there's room for you" he grinned as he pulled his shirt over his head. He then pulled his pants down revealing his boxers. He hopped down in the pool, leaning against the edge besides her. "Girl this water is cold" he said causing her to laugh. He was admiring her as she laughed. While she was distracted from laughing, he shifted his body so that he was in front of her with his hands on her ass. "Spencer..." she whispered when she realized what was going on. He was silent pulling her closer to him. He placed his lips down on her shoulder kissing it softly. He kissed amongst her shoulder to her neck causing her to have the chills. He looked back at her seeing her eyes were closed from the pleasure he was giving her. His lips pressed against hers causing her eyebrows to narrow down in confusion when she tasted the alcohol on his lips.
