It has been 3 weeks since Spencer has been discharged from the hospital and you've been helping him as he gets back into his normal routine while also preparing for your dad's trial. Spencer finally returned to work after a week of being at home with you and you have been meeting with your lawyer to to build a case against your dad. The trial was scheduled for tomorrow and you weren't ready to go up on the stand and testify.
"Spencer, I can't do this!" You said as you paced back and forth in front of the tv in his apartment.
"Y/n, you'll be fine. All they'll do is ask you a few questions about your dad and you just have to answer honestly and stay calm. You can't let your dad see you freaking out or he'll use it to his advantage." Spencer was sitting on the couch with his plate of pizza. He was trying to watch TV but gave up when you kept walking in front of it.
"This isn't calming me down!" You exclaimed, stopping in front the TV to face him.
"Why don't we practice? I may not ask the exact questions but I can try." He says and you nodded.
He grabs the case file from the coffee table and he sets down his plate. He opens the file and reads it before speaking.
"Why don't you explain what your dad have done to you?" He asks, looking at you.
You closed your eyes and took a deep breath before answering, "He has sexually abused me since I was 12 without my consent. He also physically abused me, slapping me, punching me, and choked me." You stopped and Spencer nods for you to continue.
"He yelled at me and called me names, I'd rather not repeat them." You finished, your breath slightly shaking reliving those memories.
"That's okay, is there anything else that he has done in general?" Spencer asks, turning away from you.
"He drowned himself in alcohol and drugs. My mom was never the victim of his actions. I was the only one." You spoke softly, your breathing hitched as you finished.
"That's good, you're okay." He reassures you, placing the files on the table in front of him.
"I know, it's just hard." You sighed, crossing your arms around your stomach.
"That's why we're doing this now, so you'll be prepared for tomorrow." Spencer says, nodding towards the couch for you to sit down.
"Yes, but I'm doing this in front of my parents and anyone else who takes their side." You said as you sat down next to Spencer.
"Hey, I'll be there for support. The entire team will be there for you in that room. We're gonna get that son of a bitch to serve time in prison for what he did to you." He wraps his arm around you as you leaned into him.
"Let's hope he serves time. This is what I wanted for years and now it's finally happening." you thought about the past and one thing came to mind. You'd completely forgotten until now..
