"That's not how you beg love"
"Shut up" she chuckled while shaking her head.
"Listen" he said as he walked toward her, sitting beside her and wrapping his arm around her. "Don't feel uncertain about this on my end" he rubbed her shoulder. "Sure we'll have our ups and downs but at the end of the day-"
"You don't want to break up with me" she finished for him.
"Yeah" he nodded.
"Me either" she whispered. "So... what do we do-"
He kissed her head, "future us will figure it out" he nodded.
"Future us" she nodded into his chest, pushing him backward and wrapping her arm around him.
"You want to keep sleeping?" he asked.
"No" she sighed. "Someone made an appointment for me with my grandfather" she added.
"I'm not making you go love" he rubbed her shoulder.
"No... you're right" she murmured. "I'll feel guilty if I don't-"
"I'm right?" he repeated.
"Shut up" she chuckled.
"Yes darling" he kissed her head.
Spencer sat up and stared at her phone on the counter.
She looked back at Remus who gave her an encouraging smile.
She got up and picked up her phone, pressing his name.
"Espinoza. Talk to me"
"It's uh- Spencer" she said confused.
"Ah! Sorry mija- I've been taking calls all day" he apologized.
(Daughter)
"It's alright," she nodded, "I just wanted to... let you know that I leave later today"
"Where?" he asked, Spencer could hear movement from his end.
"What?"
"Where are you going?" he added.
"School- where else?"
"Right"
"Um- yeah" she turned to look at Remus, not knowing what to say anymore.
"What time do you leave?" he asked.
"I'm catching a late train, I leave at 9"
"Dinner?"
"You don't-"
"Come on- a last one" he encouraged.
"Ok, sure" she nodded. "Just us though- we should... talk"
"Sure, listen Marte I got to go. I'll call you when im outside ok? Love you. Bye"
(Mars)
"It's ok- by-"
Spencer heard the line cut. She stared at her phone for a few moments before hanging up herself.
"Here I was thinking I could snag another steak" Remus spoke.
Spencer smiled at him, "sorry" she placed her phone down. "You're going to have to buy your own steak" she joked as she laid back down.
"We should go on a date" he wrapped his arm around her.
"We have" she replied confused.
"I mean a real date"
Spencer raised her head from his chest and faced him. "Have our dates been fake?"
