Coming home after a long, tiring day is definitely the best feeling ever, seeing the eyes and smile of the guy who you love.
Turning the knob of your front door open, you pushed your heels off and plopped on the couch. Suddenly, you hear a familiar voice coming from the kitchen.
"I don't know man, she's always stubborn when she's on her period. I'm trying my best to cope with it but sometimes it's really annoying." Justin spoke.
Hearing those words, your eyes started to tear up. You are so hurt hearing those words come from him. You are already planning to leave when you accidentally hit a flower vase standing beside you. "Shit." Luckily, you had stopped it from falling.
"Babe?"
"Oh, uhm, hi." You wiped your tears and turned to face him.
"How long have you been there?" He asked, looking quite nervous. "I just got here. I was actually looking for you."
"How's my girl's day?" He smiled, wrapping his arms around your waist. "It's all right. I-uh, I'll just go upstairs and rest. I don't feel so well." You moved away from his touch and went upstairs, not even bothering to look back.
You felt pain inside your stomach as you laid down under the covers. "God, this cramps hurt. How long should I bear with this?" You held tight onto the sheets, hoping for the pain to disappear.
You stare at the figure laying beside you who's sleeping peacefully. Usually, you will wake him up in the middle of the night whenever it really hurts and he'll sing you to sleep, while his fingers tracing shapes onto your stomach, but this time you can't just do that, thinking maybe he'll be annoyed.
The next morning, you managed to do the dishes while Justin is watching the television. You guys haven't talked since last night's incident. You see how his face breaks whenever you are avoiding his hugs and kisses.
Suddenly, you feel a pair of arms wrapped around your waist from behind. "Babe, what's wrong? You haven't talked to me since last night and I already miss your voice." He rested his chin on your shoulder, leaving one kiss. "I bought you your chips and chocolates, since I know how much your cramps hurt."
You wiped your hands, facing him. "I can take care of myself, you don't need to do that for me." You smile weakly, removing his hands from your waist and proceeding to the living room. "You know I'd do anything to make you feel better." He said, sitting beside you on the couch. "Justin, you don't have to buy me anything or cope with how stubborn I am whenever I am on my period. If you're annoyed, you can just leave me."
His words replayed inside your mind. "Shit, you heard that?"
You just stayed silent.
He held your hand, rubbing his thumb against it. "(Y/N) look, I will never leave you okay? I know how stupid I am to say those words, but you don't know how happy I get when I can do the things that make you feel better. I love it when you ask me to sing to you in the middle of the night because it hurts. I love it when you won't stop from bugging me to buy you chocolates because you're craving them. I love it when you will let me hold you in my arms and caress your stomach to ease the pain. Of course, what I love the most is being the reason why the pain lessens and you can still smile again. I love you so much (Y/N), I'm sorry." He kissed your hand.
You wiped the tears on his cheeks. "Hey, it's okay now. It just really hurt me to hear those words coming from the guy I love the most. Stop crying, okay? Come here." You smiled.
He hugged you so tight as if you haven't been with each other for a very long time.
"You don't know how much I've missed you. I love you, baby girl." He mumbled, leaving a kiss on your neck.
