Silently, I step aside, letting her into my home. The moment the door closes behind us, I can’t help myself any longer. I pull her into my arms and press my lips on hers, kissing her fiercely with pent-up passion. She responds just as ardently, her hands gripping my shirtless torso.

As our mouths explore each other, I slowly undress Spencer, peeling off her hoodie, leggings, and t-shirt underneath. Her soft skin feels like a dream under my fingertips, and I savor every inch I uncover. Our breathing grows heavier, and I can see the wild spark in her eyes, mirroring my own desire.

Guiding her back until the cool wall meets her warm flesh. She nods breathlessly, and we fuck like animals, our bodies moving together in perfect harmony, just the way we both like.

The intensity of our passion leaves us spent, and we collapse onto the floor, panting and sweaty. As we catch our breath, I wrap an arm around her, pulling her close. Our laughter fills the room, echoing off the walls.

“From now on,” I say, grinning, “this is how we’re going to end all our arguments.”

“Are you crazy?” Spencer laughs, shaking her head. “We can’t just… do that every time we disagree.”

“Maybe not,” I concede, pressing a tender kiss to her forehead. “But it was a hell of a way to make up, don’t you think?”

She smiles, tucking herself into my side. “Yeah, it was.”

As I hold her close, I feel a swell of gratitude for this woman who saved my life and changed it in ways I never could have imagined. The walls I’ve built around myself over the years have crumbled, leaving me exposed and vulnerable… and finally, I feel whole.

“Spencer,” I say, my voice suddenly serious. “About what happened earlier… I want you to know that I’m here for you, no matter what. And not just because I owe you. I care about you. More than I ever thought possible.”

She looks up at me, her eyes searching mine.

“Will you accept my help?” I ask before she can say a word about any doubts or fears. “Whatever you need, whatever you’re going through, I want to be there for you. Let me do this. For you, and for us.”

There’s a moment of silence as she considers my words, weighing the decision in her heart. Then, slowly, she nods.

“Alright,” she says slowly. “I’ll accept your help.”

I smile, feeling a surge of happiness and relief. We’ve still got a long road ahead of us, but this is the beginning.

“Good,” I say, pulling her even closer. “Now, let’s make the most of this moment, ok?”

The next morning, I race to my office, the warmth of my home and Spencer behind. My mission is clear: I must find the greatest medical minds on the West Coast to take care of her. My heart races as I sit at my desk, determined to find the best of the best.

“Alright, let’s do this,” I mutter, determination surging through me as I pull out my laptop and dive into researching hearing loss specialists. My fingers fly across the keyboard, clicking on every result that seems promising. Hours slip by as I read articles, reviews, and testimonials, seeking the perfect doctor for Spencer.

“Let’s see… Dr. Landon Whitmore, a top-rated audiologist in Southern California… Advanced cochlear implant procedures…” I murmur to myself, noting every detail that could make a difference in Spencer’s life. The room fills with the sound of my typing, the hum of the music my assistant is always playing, and the steady beat of my heart.

“Ah! This one looks perfect!” I exclaim, finding another expert who has helped countless patients regain their ability to hear. A glimmer of hope sparks within me, and I imagine the moment when Spencer hears my voice for the first time. That’ll be a day worth celebrating.

“Okay, Percival, focus,” I tell myself, shaking off the daydreams and returning to my research. I jot down the contact information for the specialist, Dr. Elizabeth Palmer, before closing my laptop and grabbing my phone.

“Time to make this happen,” I say with a grin, dialing the doctor’s office. As I wait for someone to pick up, my heart races with excitement and anticipation. This could be the breakthrough Spencer needs – the chance to finally experience the world of sound.

“Palmer Audiology Clinic, how may I help you?” the receptionist answers in a friendly tone.

“Hi, I’m calling on behalf of Spencer O’Hagan. I’d like to schedule an appointment with Dr. Palmer regarding her hearing loss,” I explain, trying to keep my voice steady as adrenaline pumps through me.

“Of course! Let me check Dr. Palmer’s availability,” the receptionist replies, tapping away at her computer. “We have an opening next week. Would that work for you and Ms. O’Hagan?”

“Absolutely!” I exclaim, barely able to contain my enthusiasm. “Please, book it!”

“Great, you’re all set for next week. We look forward to seeing you both,” the receptionist says before hanging up.

I let out a triumphant whoop, clutching my phone tightly as if it were a precious gem. “Spencer, we’re going to do this. You’ll hear again, I promise.”

My mind races with images of our future together—sharing whispered secrets, listening to our favorite songs, and simply enjoying the symphony of life. As much as I yearn to tell Spencer I love her, I know I must wait until she can truly hear the depth of emotion behind those words.
