POV June
This morning felt so good when i woke up and saw Spencer peacefully sleeping next to me. We stayed in the same position as yesterday.
( Picture taken from the movie "Like crazy.")We ate breakfast in silence without taking our eyes off from each other. Sometimes we even laughed because it became awkward.
Now i was in hospital for my physical therapy. It went alright. I walked a bit but it was still shaky and unsure. A nurse took a look at the wound on my back. She said it was healing very well. She also told me to put some cream on my last bruises.When the ambulance brought me back to Spencer's apartment i felt so lonely. I decided to read a bit and lay down on the sofa.
I was reading for a hour maybe when i heard the front door opening.POV Spencer
When i opened the door i was surprised to see June on the sofa reading.
"Hey you're already home ?" I asked her.
"Yeah it went good i walked a bit." She replied taking her eyes off of the book and smiling at me.
"I'm proud of you." I told her kissing her forehead. We were still a bit shy to kiss so i just kiss her forehead a lot. "Do you want a pizza ?"
"Yeah why not."
"I'll call for it. I ask the more simple one ? I know you don't really like it."
"Yes please. Thank you."The pizza arrived twenty minutes later. We ate it quickly and now I was doing the dishes while June kept staring at me.
"Why did you come home so early ?" She asked me.
"I did all the paperwork i had to do and i wanted to be with you." I replied looking at her.
"You don't have to spend all your time with me. I know your colleagues are your family. You should spend more time with them." She told me.
"Don't worry they understand."
"Do they know about us ?" She asked me.
"Euh .... no i ...didn't tell them I just want to keep you safe and euh... they don't need to know." I replied.
"Are you hiding me ?"
"No i'm not don't worry it's just that i need to keep what we have safe." I dryed my hands and turned towards her. "Come with me i need to tell you something." I told her.
I knew it was the right moment to tell her about Maeve but i was really scared it would make her leave me.We sat on the sofa and i took her hands in mine breathing deeply before beginning.
"Did you find some special book here with a quote inside ?" I asked her. She instantly blushed ashamed that she might have done something bad.
"Euh.. yeah i did it was pretty romantic."
"A woman gave it to me. Her name was Maeve." Thinking about her made me smile but it also hurt me.
"Was ? What happened ?" She asked me squeezing my hands. She really was what i needed.
"Let me tell you it might me long. Two years ago i had those horrible headaches and i contacted a specialist. Maeve Donovan. She helped me a lot." I needed to take a break because the memories came back.
"Take your time. It's alright i'm here." She reassured me. "Did you love her ?" She asked me.
"Yeah i did and i will always." I knew those words may hurt her. I could see it in her eyes.
"Did it last long ?"
"We met physically the moment she died."
"What happened ?"
"She was stalked and kidnapped. When the team arrived her stalker shot herself and killed Maeve too." I looked at her and saw tears in her eyes.
"It's horrible. I'm sorry. It must have break your heart. I can't imagine." She took my shirt in her hands and bring me closer to her hugging me.
"What happened doesn't change what i feel for you. She will always be a part of my heart but i love you and your my present."I took her face in my hands and kissed her gently. She kissed me back and i put my forehead against hers.
"I love you too." She whispered.
"Do you mind if we watch Doctor Who now ?" I asked acting like a kid.
"Let's do this." We went into the bedroom to change our clothes and be more comfortable. June went into the bathroom to change and i prepared the dvd in the living room.She came back wearing a short and some shirt. Then she sat crossed legs on the sofa facing me. I could not avoid my eyes from wandering over her legs.
I gently brushed my fingers against the bruises. She shivered from my touch."Can you bring the cream which is in my bag ? The nurse told me to put it on the bruises." She asked me.
"Of course."
I came back with it and began applying it on her. She kept her eyes on my face and i could hear her laugh.
"Sorry it tickles."
"I'm glad i am." I replied smiling.
"Stop it you're mean to me." She was pouting and she looked so cute.
"Does it bother you that i'm touching you ?"
"No it's ok but i'm not used to this. At least not when i allow it." I knew what she meant but i didn't want to think about this monster.
"So let's watch tv." I tried changing the subject.
She laid down and i spooned her. Or that's what i thought we called it.
She took my hands in hers and kissed them.
"I'm here Spencer." She said.
I put my head in her hair and whispered "Thank you." in her ear.We spent the day watching Doctor Who but i knew for sure that at a moment i fell asleep with my head in June's neck.
Telling June about Maeve removed a weigh from me. I was glad i didn't hide it from her any longer. Now i hoped she would understand me keeping her away from my work.
