You had been dating Spencer for 14 months and 5 days exactly when he out of nowhere disappeared. You found out through his coworkers at the BAU that he was in fact okay, at his mothers clinic to visit her, and apparently just needed some ‘time away’ but he refused to speak to you. Your heart was broken. You had loved him with all you had and he just left.
A few months later you got together with Michael. He was nice enough, but he wasn’t Spencer.
Then one day, Spencer came back. It was awkward and at first you refused to see him but once you finally accepted and heard his explanation you understood. He wasn’t doing well, scared of relapsing and his mom was getting worse.
Still hurt for him to leave like that though. Basically a ‘forgive but never forget’ type of situation.
Now you guys are friends.
Today you decided to hang out and bake some cookies! You’re mixing the batter while Spencer stands beside you, you can feel his eyes boring into the side of your head.
Suddenly he speaks up.
“Do you think we could ever go back to the way things were?”
