General POV

A few weeks later Toby was now at home recovering. He still had a cast on his arm. Spencer was able to finish the exam she started and take the one she missed. Their relationship was going well. Spencer went with Toby to his partners funeral to support him. Neither of them can remember the last time they had a fight. Toby is folding his laundry but was having trouble because he was in an arm cast and a sling so he could only use one hand. Spencer walked into their bedroom and offered to help him.

"Do you need help with that?" Spencer asked

"Spence, it's fine I can handle it." Toby said

"Let me help you because I love you and I want to be helpful." Spencer said

"Spence, I'm an adult and I don't need you treating me otherwise." Toby said

"Fine Toby I was just trying to help you." Spencer said

"I don't need you to remind me every time I am supposed to take a pain pill either." Toby said

"What has gotten into you Toby?" Spencer asked

"I should have been the one who didn't make it. That should have been my funeral last week." Toby said

"You don't mean that Toby." Spencer said

"He was 27 and married. He had 7 year old twin daughters and a set of twin sons on the way." Toby said

"This is something both of us can do. When you are better we can help his wife out with the kids. Think about it Toby, it would be good experience for us because I see us being married with kids one day." Spencer said

"If she wanted help then she would of asked me at his funeral." Toby said

Spencer left their bedroom not wanting to start a fight. Christmas eve is tomorrow and she wanted to make Toby happy.

A few minutes later Toby wanted to apologize to Spencer. The only other person home was Kayla.

"Did Spencer leave because I thought I heard the door slam?" Toby asked

"Spencer was upset. She told me not to tell you but Spencer is giving you some space and spending the night at Jason's apartment." Kayla said

"If I give you my car keys would you drive me to Jason's apartment?" Toby asked

"It might be better if you let Spencer come back home in the morning and then talk to her." Kayla said

"So you think Spencer would be more mad at me if I showed up at Jason?" Toby asked

"I'm just saying she is safe with Jason. If she doesn't come home in the morning then yes I will drive you Jason's" Kayla said

"What so important with your phone?" Caleb asked

"Spencer and Toby got into a fight and now they both won't stop texting me." Hanna said
