Take me to London

Chapter 5

Spencer sat at the edge of the bed and waited for Toby to wake up. The doctors are trying to get him as much sleep as possible. She still hadn't told him about the mishap with the misunderstood pregnancy, although she still hadn't started her period. She wasn't ready to be a mother and she was sure that Toby was not ready to become a father. 

Toby began to stir in his small hospital bed and flutter his eye lids. "Hey," he smiled at the sight of Spencer. 

"Hey." She said softly, as if she was trying not to scare him off. 

"What's wrong?" He turned over slowly, keeping in mind that he was just recently shot in the abdomen.  

"Baby, you were just shot and I am worried about you." she toyed with her finger in her lap. "We had a small scare yesterday, Hanna and I." 

"What do you mean scare?" 

"I thought I was pregnant but I took a test and it was negative." She looked relived unlike Toby, his face was tense and his eyes were wide. 

"Are you sure?" He was panicking, he seriously did not want to become a father at this age. They weren't even married. 

"Hey, it'll be fine. I took a test and it said it was negative-" she was trying to talk until one of Toby's doctors walked in the room. 

"What was negative?" She asked. Spencer looked at her as if she was being nosy but Toby didn't see it that way.  

"She thought she was pregnant but the test was negative." Toby said looking at Spencer. She looked angry that he would share something so personal. Just then Toby's nose started to bleed again for the third time this week. 

"Toby, your nose is bleeding again!" Spencer said sounding annoyed. 

"Damnit!" He said under his breath and put his hand over his nose. Spencer handed him some tissues. 

"How long has this been happening?" The doctor came over to him to look what was going on. 

"About two months now but I've had this happen before and it is just the weather drying out my nose and it starts to bleed. No big deal." Toby lied. This was the first year that he had been getting nose bleed this many times a week. 

"Do you want me to run some test so we can make sure it's just the cold, dry weather?" She was looking in Toby's nose with her light that looked like it was on the end of a small pen. 

Just as Toby was about to decline the offer Spencer tried to accept it. "No, I don't want one." 

The doctor nodded and continued what she was supposed to be doing when she came in here. She just simply had to check is wound on his leg and his stomach. The dressings were fine so she left.

"What the hell?" Spencer asked surprised that he would decline possible treatment. 

"This is nothing Spencer, calm down." Now he'd done it, every man should know not to tell a woman to 'calm down' it was like asking for them to be pissed off or for them to just leave and you have to think either or not they broke up with you or they are just mad and taking a breather. 

"I'm sorry that I want you to be healthy and I worry about you!" Spencer yelled at Toby. He tried to sit up but failed as the wires were connected and sat back against the bed post. 

"I'm capable of taking care of myself, I don't need you looking after me!" He shot back. 

"Oh so you don't need me?" Tears threatened to fall from her eyes but she blinked them back, she couldn't look weak in this moment in front of Toby.  "So I guess I can leave then?" She didn't wait for his answer, she just grabbed her jacket and walked out the white door in Toby's hospital room. She headed out the large glass double doors and to her car. 

How could she say that? She knew that she wanted and needed to be there for him. She knew that he needed her, in so many ways. She was his protector, she was the one person that he could turn to and have them hold him. She was the only person that he could seem weak to, he refused to show any signs of powerlessness around any other human ever since they had been together.    

Spencer was more than happy to be his safe place, he was hers. She would turn to him when her parents or her friends were not there. He was there to kiss away the tears and hold her through the tears. They understood each other, they knew what they were going through equally. 

Spencer opened her car door and climbed in, she was crying but trying to stay strong for herself. 

Why did I have to do that?  She thought in her mind. She contemplated going back inside and apologizing to her for those things she said. No, she had to be strong and true to all those things she did say. All she was trying to do was keep the one person that she cared for the most safe. 

Toby reached his arm out to reach for Spencer just as she walked out the door, he laid his head back on the head board on the hospital bed and sighed. Spencer just walked out on him and he had no idea what had just happened. That had never happened before, they never had very many fights and when they did, she never left a room like that. That was one thing that he promised to himself. He never wanted to hurt her or do anything that she didn't like. he wanted to give her the world and then some. 

The doctor came back in and saw how worried Toby looked. "Everything okay Mr. Cavanaugh?" She asked. Toby really looked at her for the first time and she was beautiful. She had long blonde hair, considerable size chest, she had fabulous long legs. Toby never really looked at other women, but there is a first for everything.

He nodded and spoke, "You're very beautiful, has anyone very told you that?" It made it seem like he was hitting on her. She blushed and looked at the monitor hanging on the wall.

"Thank you." She said nothing more and continued his paper work. Asking him questions about the levels of pain. 

There you go that's chapter 5 and I know these chapters are kinda short but I have a lot of home work due to only going to school for one day this week. So I am trying to work through this and homework. Tell me what you think, what do you think is going to happen with Spencer and Toby and when is going to happen with this new girl that Toby thinks is so beautiful?
