this is soooooo cute okay omg
"did you know ikea sells more than 150 million meatballs each year." spencer smiles as he settles your tray of food on the table in the busy food hall.
"it's not that hard to believe" you hum, "i'm probably personally responsible for at least 20 million". spencer chuckles, and reaches across the table to hold your hand, looking at you with absolute admiration.
this was the happiest spence had been in a while. since he’d asked you to move into his apartment, and you’d excitedly said yes, he’d been planning where your favourite artwork would go on the walls and what chores you’d each do. he’d been particularly insistent in buying you a new bookcase. you loved the gesture, but knew it was mostly because he didn’t want your books, which were often kept in messy piles on the floor, to get mixed up in his meticulously organised collection.
“spence are you sure we need all this? I can just bring the stuff I had from my place, it’s no problem” you look at your trolley, it was almost overflowing with new things. photo frames, a new frying pan, saucepan, laundry basket, lamp and cutlery set, all of which you already had, but spencer was adamant.
“we’re moving in together; I want us to have our own stuff and some of this is needed. the lamp is for your bedside table so you don’t get eye strain, the laundry basket will be big enough for both our stuff which I know you don’t even have, and i don’t like the handles on your forks.” he squeezed your hand, he didn’t want you to doubt any part of moving in with him.
“my desk chair is my laundry basket, and my forks are offended by that” you smiled and lightly kicked his leg under the table. “I actually saw something I thought we could do together” you rummaged through your bag and pulled out a crumpled poster for the français film club at a movie theatre by the apartment. spencer gasped and pulled the same poster out of his satchel, his had a lot less wrinkles.
“i’ve actually already signed us up, their next screening is belle de jour”
this was it. this was the most content you and spencer had ever felt. everything was falling into place for you. as you finished your food and cleaned up your table, spencer put an arm round your shoulders and pulled you in to kiss the top of your head. your arm snaked around his waist and held him close.
"come on, i need to get an artificial alocasia from the plant department"
"say that five times fast" you laughed.
there was a pause "plant department?"
"no, artificial alocasia" you giggled "i love you" reached up to kiss his cheek.
anon this was such an adorable prompt and soooo boyfriend!spencer coded. i love him sm 😭😭
