"God, how am I ever going to fit three weeks worth of clothes into this bag?" I mumbled to myself. Packing was not my god giving talent by any meansand I had a whole closet full of clothes to fit in one bag, I don't think I was getting anywhere.

"God, I'm going to miss you." Spencer quietly muttered as he kicked his legs onto my dresser . His hands fell behind his head as he relaxed, but how could you relax at a moment like this? Anxiety, Stress, not to mention excitement, filled my head with thoughts. The outings, the shopping, and the whole Christmas season cascaded my mind in giddy joy as I worked on the first step to getting to Jersey, packing.

God how I hate packing.

"Hey Spenc? Will you come help me?" I laughed and tried to zip the suitcase shut. The zipper barely moved around the corner. It looked like it was going to pop right off.

"Ya." He agreed hopping up from his seat in my comfy chair. His arm brushed against mine as I tried once again to zip the bag. "Let's start by taking stuff out" He laughed and struggled to unzip it.

His hands dug through the piles of clothes I had so threw in there. Cleaniness not in mind ewhen I was doing so.

"First of all you aren't going to be needed this." A smirk lit up across his face as he held up my black, curve hugging dress. It was fairly short and was kinda slutty I had to admit, but I looked mighty fine in it. He threw the dress back towards my closet making it feel like I was the newest subject on "What Not to Wear" starring Spencer. "You are only allowed to wear that dress when its me and you." He laughed and traced my curves in the air with his hands.

He moved on and didn't hesitated to dig through my bag. "This is a major no." Spencer said and laughed at the peice of fabric he was holding.

"Spencer, those are pajamas." I laughed looking at the shorty shorts in his hand.

"Promise?" He raised an eyebrow and held the short up by only the corner he was piching between his two fingers.

"Yes Spencer." I laughed snagging the shorts and throwing back in my suitcase. Spencer continues and basically let me keep clothes only my grandma would approve of. In his mind he thought I should only wear turtlenecks and baggy sweatpants.

His arms wrapped around me from the back, where he was standing. It startled me a bit but then shot tingles up my spine. Goose bumps formed on my skin as I thought about his presence. I loved just to be wrapped up in his arms, especially in this time when I was trying to conquer my emotions towards Mikey. The warmth of his body relaxed me as his chin rested upon my shoulder.

I continued folding clothes from the 'wearable' pile and putting them back in the suitcase. The wearable pile consisted of the no skin showing clothes while the non-wearable pile was pretty much everything I owned.

"You know Spencer, I can't wear the same clothes every day." I laughed and finished off the pile.

"And why not?" He laughed and dug through the unwearable pile this time lowering his standards just a bit. We continued this process of lowering his standards until I actually had enough clothes to wear. Of course I was probably just going to go shopping while I was there anyways so it didn't really make much of a difference.

"and how do you know I won't just be walking around in my underwear?" I mentioned the thought and turned to smile at him. I knew his mind was full of thoughts and now images as he cracked a smile.

"because you love your boyfriend and couldn't ask for anyone better." He said putting words in my mouth.

"hey since you're the best boyfriend ever will you sit on this suitcase while I zip it?" I asked and smiled to persuade him. "There." I said finishing up, "My clothes are packed now what's next?"

"There's more?" Spencer's jaw dropped.

"Shoes, makeup, hair." I listed them up counting on my fingers.

We spent another hour or so packing before I was completely ready to leave.

"Thanks for helping Spenc." I smiled and gave him a quick kiss on his left cheek.

"Anything for you." He said sweet talking me. "Now before you leave.... a quick trip to Maggie's?" He asked regarding the Ice creaam shop down by the beach.

"Let's go." I laughed and raced for the door. We ran down to the beach and got our ice cream. The Pecan Ice cream from Maggie's is like a cold scoop of heaven.

"You know how much I'm going to miss you, right?" Spencer asked looking into my eyes as I gulped down the Ice cream. I'm sure it was very attractive to wattch.

"I know Spenc, and I will miss you." I smiled taking another bite.

"I'm serious. Call me everyday. Oh and I'm sending you your christmas gift in the mail." He smiled lightening the mood a bit.

"I'll call you every single day and tell you everything, I'll write you, I'll constantly talk of you, I'll send you my love, I'll be fine Spenc." I smiled and kissed his lips with my Ice cream covered ones.

He pulled away and stared at my lips, "What flavour is that? .....It's delicious." He said and took a bite of my ice cream. I busted up laughing and continued to walk back to the house.

"I love you." He whispered in my ear as he hugged me for the last time in a while.

"I love you too." I smiled over his shoulder at my mom who thought it was precious. She drew a heart in the air and pressed a hand to her heart. I waited a minute for Spencer to let go. I did feel kind of bad that I wasn't going to miss him as much as he was going to miss me, but don't get me wrong, I was going to miss him. Just not as much. "Okay Spenc, you are suffocating me." I tried to laugh but couldn't manage and suddenly found myself in the arms of Vinny at the fair back during the Summer.

"Wait what?" I shook my head and pushed myself away from Spencer.

"What?"

"What? nothing. Sorry I just wasn't getting enough air." I laughed and shook my little flashback off.

"Bye Spencer." I smiled and pressed my lips to his. I'm not gonna go into detail on this kiss but it was magical. I pushed myself away eventually after feeling slighty awkward in front of my mother and picked up my bags.

"Bye Kalen." He smiled and put the rest of my bags in the back of the taxi. "Have fun."
