I'll Take Your Hand | S.R.

Chapter 17 - Elliot's P.O.V.

I haven't talked to Spencer in two days. Ever since I kissed him he's been ignoring me. Which is weird because he seemed to like it since it lasted for about 10 minutes.

I walk into the coffee and order my regular. As I head out the door I see Spencer. He gives me a smile. I fully walk out the door before I stop and stand next to him.

"Let's go for a walk," he says, starting to walk.

"Spence, I, I have work?" I say, running up to him as he's already two feet away.

"Could you call in sick? For me?" he gives me a wink.

I blush and look away from him and at my feet. "I run the place. It wouldn't hurt to close it for one day," I look up and give him a smile.

We start walking before I stop.

"Why'd you stop?" he gives me questioning look.

"It's my car."

"Let's get in! I came here walking anyways,"

We get in and I start the car. I play my usual playlist and start driving 'till i get home.

I unlock my door and let him in before heading in myself.

"Don't you have work today?"

"No, I called off,"

"Why are you acting like two days ago never happened?"

"We never made anything official, now did we?" he gives me a smirk.

"I- are you asking me to be your boyfriend?"

"I don't know am I?"

I walk up to him and wrap my arms around his neck and give him a kiss on his lips. I then put my head in the crook of his neck and with a quiet voice I say, "because if so, then I say yes."

"Can we cuddle in my bed?" I ask.

"It's your house, but yes,"

"Then let's go."

I walk to my room, Spencer behind, and take off my jacket and throw it in my closet. Spencer looks around while I kick off my shoes and they land somewhere In my room.

"What're you looking at?" I ask, walking and standing next to him.

"What's this?"

"I used to be obsessed with that show when I was a teen. It taught me that being different was okay. That no matter what anyone said, my sexuality means nothing," I give a him a smile before jumping on my bed. In a muffled voice, because my head is in my pillow, I say, "It just means I like boys, and I guess the show was a little problematic. But I- there were some episode where I could relate to a lot, and some were just offensive."

" 'Glee'," he says. "Do you have a poster for every season? 'Cause there are a lot?"

"Yeah, but I haven't seen an episode in so long," I look towards his direction. "Now come on let's cuddle!"

"You know we only just got together," he says, giving me a smile, taking off his shoes and coming into the empty spot next to me.

"Shush!" I lean my head into his chest,

I feel Spencer move next to me. He starts to get out I hug him even more.

"Don't leave,"

"We've been doing this for 30 minutes I want to stretch,"

"What would make you stay even more,"

"If you let me stretch for a minute?"

I move my head and kiss him in the lips. He pulls away.

"Kissing me won't make me cuddle with you even more,"

I ignore him him and start kissing his jaw line and move to his neck. He seems to enjoy before he says something.

"Okay fine- I- Elliot, you're going to give me a hickey. I- I have work tomorrow. My team is going to get suspicious,"

I look back at him and then give him one more kiss on his neck before I say, "I think I already gave you one," with a smirk.

He just smiled at me as I bring my head to his chest.

"Don't worry, I have concealer. And if I don't, I've seen you wear that cute purple scarf, you can wear that. Or a hoodie of mine, your choice. Though I don't think they would fit you,"
