Ok, so here is another potential story. I know I'm full of them.

Spencer didn't care how old Chloe got, she would always be her baby girl. She watched the 15 year old as she worked on the drawing she'd been working on for two weeks. She had her father's artistic skills. Spencer was on vacation from her job as a PR representative. She and Chloe had a week of binge watching and book reading planned. Spencer was pouring herself her third cup of coffee when she heard the rumble of a motorcycle pulling into the drive. Toby Cavanaugh she thought to herself.  

"Daddy!" Chloe yelled darting out into the yard. Spencer poured another cup of coffee and headed out to the yard.

"There's my sugar plum" Toby bellowed as he scooped the tiny teen into his arms spinning her around before setting her back down.

Looking at Toby made her flashback to the night Chloe had been conceived.

"What's it like?" Spencer asked innocently. "What? Sex?" Toby replied. "It's hard to explain."
"Show me" she panted.
"Why Spencer Hastings, I always got the 'saving yourself' vibe from you" he teased.
"I was saving myself for someone" she admitted "but he's with someone else now, and I just want to feel good"
"Spencer, I'm not so sure this is a good idea" Toby said hesitantly. He knew she was in a fragile state from the fight with her parents and he didn't want to take advantage of her.
"I need this Toby" she cried.

Spencer shook her head in an attempt to clear her mind. She didn't want to think about the night she lost her virginity. Toby, had tried to be gentle but he was an overeager 18 year old that hadn't known the first thing about foreplay.

"Spencer" he said taking the mug of coffee she offered him. She noted how his tshirt clung to his tight muscular body. They always ended up hooking up when he visited Chloe, she was definitely looking forward to it.

"Toby" she said with a strained smile. "You didn't tell me you were coming"

"Well where's the fun in that" he chuckled as he slung an arm around Chloe. "So how have my girls been?" He said guiding them back into the house. Chloe began to prattle on about her life, filling him in on every detail. Chloe was in the middle of showing Toby her art work when her face fell.

"I was supposed to have a sleepover at my friend Madison's house tonight" she pouted.

"I don't want to spoil your plans baby" he said "you go to your sleepover. I'm going to be in town for awhile. Your mom can keep me company tonight. We have some boring adult things to talk about anyhow."

He raised an eyebrow suggestively at Spencer over his cup of coffee. Spencer turned to the sink so Chloe wouldn't see her blushing. Toby still made her squirrelly, the same way he did that night sixteen years ago when they had conceived Chloe.

Toby had been a good father to Chloe for the most part. He wrote her letters, called her, Skyped her and when Spencer allowed would take her on some of his trips. He hadn't been around physically though and they both knew that had had an effect on Chloe.

Toby spent the whole day with Chloe before taking her over to Madison's for her sleepover. Spencer ordered Chinese food for her and Toby to eat when he returned.

"She is one great kid" Toby said when he returned. "She's all you, just a chip off the old perfect block"

Spencer could tell something was weighing on Toby.

"What's the matter Tobes?" She asked ruffling his hair.

"I'm a crappy dad" he said. "I see the way Caleb is with Madison, he's teaching her to drive, he coaches her soccer team, he bakes for Christ sake. What do I do? Swing by once every six months to a year."
