Spencer's POV
A knock at the door wakes me from my sleeping. I lift my head slightly and take a deep breath in trying to take in my surroundings. I was asleep on the couch which explained why the knock had sounded so close. Another knock at the door makes me sit up and rub my face with my hands to get the sleep out of it. I see the bottle of liquor I had been drinking and quickly screw the lid on and roll it under the couch with the pill bottle that I had stashed there. My dad was out at the office pretty much all night so I didn't think there was a need to hide what I had been doing. I push myself up straightening out my clothes and running my hands through my hair to smooth it out slightly. Another knock at the door startles me and I cross the living room to the door. I freeze as soon as I see who is on the other side. I unlock the door and pull it open the night air hitting me as soon as I do. "Hey." She says and I can hear the nerves in her voice.
"Hey?" I reply in a questioning tone. She sways a little on her feet, like she's trying to decide something. "Do you want to come in?" I ask still blocking the doorway.
"Yes, no, maybe, I don't know." Aria looks frustrated as she voices her thoughts.
I step away from the door, leaving it open, and walk into the kitchen to grab some coffee. After a little while, I hear the front door click shut and the sound of Aria's boots on the floor. "I shouldn't have come here." Aria says sitting down at the kitchen counter.
"I'm glad you did." I say placing a coffee in front of her.
"I wouldn't have if I hadn't talked to Cassie." Aria replies and I almost choke on my coffee.
"You talked to- What? Why?" I ask confused. If I was Aria then Cassie would have been the last person I ever wanted to talk to.
"She kind of cornered me at a bar." Aria tells me. A bar? "But she made some good points." She sighs stretching her palms across the counter in nerves.
"I-I..." I begin but Aria cuts me off.
"Please, just, don't talk because I need to say this and I need to say it fast." She looks at me, tears already filling up in her eyes, and I gesture for her to go on my heart stopping in my chest. "You hurt me. And I wanted to get revenge on you so bad but then I realised that it wouldn't do anything and I tried to help you Spence, I really did. I don't know if I can ever really forgive you for what you did." Aria shrugs tears escaping her eyes. I felt my heart fracture but I ignored the pain in my chest and walked around the counter so I was standing by her side.
"I don't want to lose you Ar. I can't lose you. You are the best thing that has ever happened to me and I was stupid but I promise you that I will never hurt you like that ever again." Aria turns her head away from me blocking her face from my eyes. "Remember how I promised to always protect you? I plan on keeping that promise. I love you so, so much please let me prove it to you." My voice was taking on the tone of begging, which was what I was doing, I was begging for her forgiveness. She shakes her head and I feel my heart drop to my stomach.
She slowly turns her head to look at me and I can't stop myself from reaching out and wiping the stray tear that was making its way down Aria's cheek. She shies away, at first, from my touch before nuzzling into my hand. I caress her cheek softly before hooking my finger under her chin. "I'm broken Aria and I need you to fix me." I whisper quietly and she nods, then, in one swift movement she's on her feet linking her arms around my neck and pulling me down towards her lips. I groan at the sudden movements before wrapping my arms around her waist. I twist her around before lifting her up onto the kitchen counter. Her hands weave their way into my hair and I had almost forgotten just how good kissing Aria made me feel. I lick her bottom lip asking for entrance which she willingly grants me. I slip my tongue into her mouth as her hands untangle themselves from my hair moving to my back where her nails dig into me. I let out a moan at the pressure my arms tightening around her waist pulling her closer to me. I could feel the cold marble of the kitchen counter digging into me as I tried to get impossibly close to Aria. I slip my hand under her dress and rest it on her thigh. I break the kiss when the need for oxygen becomes over whelming but I trace my lips down her jaw to her neck panting. I was aware at how fast things had turned around but I was too busy, my whole body like a wildfire. "Spencer..." Aria moans tilting her head back, exposing more of her neck. I suck on her pulse point which coaxes more moans from her. She gently pushes on my shoulder. "Spencer... Stop." She says through deep breaths. I lean back and look up at her curiously. I can see that her lips are curled up ever so slightly like she wants to smile but is stopping herself. "I don't think-" I cut off whatever she was going to say by bringing my finger up to her lips silencing her.
"Shhh." I soothe locking eyes with her. This time she breaks out in a wide smile which lights up her face and eyes and I feel that familiar tug in my stomach I was so used to feeling when she smiled. She hooks her legs around my waist and I support her with my arms, holding her, while she loops her arms around my neck. We had an understanding. I carry her up the stairs and laugh when I hear her giggling. It was such an amazing sound, it was cute and adorable all at the same time. We reach my bedroom and I lay Aria down on my bed landing on top of her, laughing so hard, I could barely breathe. She beams up at me before pulling me onto her lips in a passionate kiss. After I manage to stop laughing and regulate my breathing, as best I can, I pull away slightly from Aria. "I love you." I repeat for about the millionth time. Everytime I said it and Aria never said it back it felt like a slap in the face. Aria reaches up with her hands and cups my face in them, smiling softly.
"I love you too." She whispers before connecting our lips once again. But this kiss was softer and more gentler than the previous ones.
"Say it again." I say grinning down at her.
"I love you, Spencer Hastings." Aria laughs. "And I don't ever want to lose you again." She warns placing a finger in the dimple of my chin.
"Never." I promise shaking my head.
