Chapter 7: One Big Promise

*5 months later*
"So how do you feel moving forward?" My therapist asked. "I feel better with my life, Spencer and I are very happy, he's been understanding throughout it, my physical therapy is no longer needed. I'm ready to move on from this dark period." I smiled. "I'm very proud of you, you've come so far." She complimented. "Well that wraps up today, I think soon we won't be need these sessions." My therapist spoke. "Excellent." I said while shaking her hand.
"Spencer would be proud." I thought to myself. After Mark's funeral I had become reckless, I wasn't sure how to react with Spencer. I became to dependent upon him and it created issues when he left. After a week, he told me about his ex girlfriend Maeve. After the story he told, about how she was killed in front of him; it just made me feel so guilty about the way I've been. That's why I chose to start having therapy sessions again. I still have a limp when I walk and my stomach will cramp up but it's fine. I'm fine. My live is amazing right now.
"Hello." I said while picking up my phone. "How was therapy?" Spencer asked. "Good, if it keeps up, I have the chance at a better life without having sessions." I spoke. "That's amazing!" I'm so proud." I could almost hear his smile from the phone. "I got to go, I'll call you later tonight." Spencer said. "Love you, bye." He said before hanging up. I looked at my phone confused. "Weird." I said whispering.
I opened my car door and got it. My hands pressed against the steering wheel. I took a sigh and slammed my back against the seat. I rubbed my forehead this cool off, I felt like my whole progress just went away in that moment of time.
The worst part of it is Spencer being away, him going up into a jet almost every day, being in that constant rush with criminals. At this point, the part of him flying is what scares me the most.
The thing that does make me feel better is when he flys, it's not on a low budget plane that our chief didn't want to spend money on. I pulled into Meredith's house, I opened the door. "Spencer." I gasped while dropping my bags. "Surprise." He smiled. I walked over and hugged him. He kissed my forehead. "Is this why you hung up like that?" I asked. "Um yes, once I got here Meredith opened the door for me and I didn't want you to know." He replied. I shook my head and chuckled. "Do you have a case here?" I asked while sitting on the couch. "Not necessarily, it's been slow surprisingly. Hotch said it would be fine if I left for a few days." Spencer explained. "Oh."
"I'm only here for two days though, I want to ask you something." Spencer sighed.
"Okay, what is it?" I questioned. I couldn't tell his intentions with this. "I want, I want you to come back with me. I know it's a lot to ask, but I want you to live in Virginia, with me." Spencer uttered. "I- I don't understand? Why now?" I asked in denial.
"I feel like it would be better for us, it's amazing we're even still together. Statically couples who are long distance don't make it 3 months." He said. "Spencer. I'm not flying." I said stern. "If I drive you, will you?" He asked again. I opened my mouth to speak, I looked around the room a few times. As if there would be someone to interrupt.
"Okay." I whispered. "Really?" He smiled. I smiled back. "Really."
