Spencer had one shot to get this right. He's been planning this for months and he's loved you years. He needs to get this right.
One night, he suggested a walk on the beach. He knew that would raise suspicions, considering the fact that he doesn't like going places like the beach. But you accepted anyway, much to his surprise.
The two of you were walking for a long time before Spencer spoke up. He pulled you closer, his hand resting on your hip. "Can I ask you something?" Spencer inquired, his voice soft. There was a hint of shyness to his tone.
He stopped walking and turned to you. "I, uhh.." His mouth felt dry and he felt like passing out from nerves. Oh, JJ would be so mad at him right now. She'd just given him a pep talk and tried to mentally prepare him.
"Just hear me out, okay?"
