    Spencer is not a fan of big crowds but for Kenzie he'd do anything even if it meant getting up at 4am for a weekend after driving all the way to upstate New York for the ADK Ballon Festival. She has family that lives up there plus her ex is up there who hadn't spoken to her daughter in almost a year the 4 year old had started calling Spencer dad. The little girl Cecilia wanted to go up after hearing her cousins talk about seeing the hot air balloons. Kenzie had grown up going to it so she figured she'd bring her daughter and her boyfriend there. They were staying in her aunt and uncles camper in their yard as it was really close to the airport where they were having the balloon festival. Saturday morning at 4am they got up and got ready to go over they were bundled up for the cool September air. They parked what felt like 10 miles away she in true ex New Yorker fashion led the way weaving through the crowd good thing Spencer was tall so he could see her. They met up with her aunt and cousins who also had their kid with em and her cousins wife's family was there too. Spencer felt out of place he didn't really know her family cause she didn't talk to her family a lot. People kept brushing against him and bumping into him, the music was blaring so loud he could hardly think. He felt overstimulated. She was holding Cecilia both their cheeks were rosy from the crisp autumn air. Spencer had his arm around her waist as they stood in the air field waiting. Cecilia squealed with joy the second she saw one of the hot air balloons blow up. Spencer chuckled. He yawned a couple of times feeling the cold and tiredness sink into his bones. The balloons had gone up and flew (floated?) away. Cecilia was bouncing off the walls pretty much she was so excited about it all. She wanted to go look at all the booths they had set up with people selling stuff Spencer wanted to go home for a little while and come back later in the afternoon as he was overstimulated and just needed to breath. He grabbed her elbow gently Spencer: Can we go back to your aunt and uncles or can we just go sit in the car maybe go get some breakfast please he whispered to her. Her cousin Tyler kept looking at him sizing him up she knew her family was rough and tough rednecks so saying and admitting he's overstimulated wasn't an option
