ch 7 summary:

y/n met the new man at the bonfire, slowly getting closer with him. he asks to take a walk with her, but an altercation happens. spencer (of course) gets involved in order to make sure y/n is okay 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

after a calm period that lasted an hour or so after what happened with james, you finally made the decision to walk back to your suite. you bid everyone goodbye, then made your way back to the walkway off of the beach. you kept your head low, your arms wrapped around yourself. as you trudged through the sand, you heard a voice calling after you,

"y/n! wait!" the voice yelled. you turned to look over your shoulder.

of course, it was spencer.

 he looked goofy trying to run across the sand without getting to much of it on himself. you couldn't help but let out a small smile of amusement. he caught up to you, panting softly,

"thought you were gonna run from me.." he wheezed out as you two continued walking up to the beach path. you looked at him then back down at your feet,

"no, i wouldn't do that." you shook your head and lifted your eyes as your suite neared,

"hey, spence?" you asked softly, rubbing your side with your thumb as a self soother. he looked over, raising his eyebrows inquisitively as a silent 'yes',

"do you think you could spend the night?.. like, not in a weird way, but just-" you started to ramble on but you were cut off by a loud chuckle from spencer, who received a small glare from you, 

"you sound like me right now. but yea, i'll stay with you." he said with a smile, looking back intront of him as he slid his hands into his pockets. you blinked a few times, about to say something. you decided to bite your tongue and hold your words back. nothing was said inbetween you two on the walk to your door. you reached your back door and unlocked it with your keycard you had in your pocket. spencer held it open for you, and you walked in, giving him a courteous nod.

spencer took a moment to watch you walk away, his eyes darting up from your legs and up your back profile. he eventually walked in behind you, closing and locking the door for safety purposes.

"i'm gonna go take a shower, i'll be right back." you said, turning and walking to your bathroom. spencer stood there, slightly wide eyed. you sighed to yourself,  closing the door to your bathroom. you shook your head and turned on your shower, undressing and then stepping in under the hot water. 

spencer looked around for a moment, finally clearing his head. he figured he'd go sit out in the living room and wait, so that's exactly what he did.

you let the warm water run over your body for a good amount of time, wanting to get everything that happened tonight off your body, out of your head. out of everything.

spencer sat on your couch and quickly pulled out his phone to text morgan, 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

s: morgan what do i do she's showering and im sitting out here

m: lol just wait, maybe you'll take the d train to bone down tn ;) 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

spencer glared at the text and left him on read, sliding out of the messages app and turning his phone off with a sigh. he slid it into his back pocket and ran a hand through his hair, waiting.
