I had gone home for a couple of weeks now but I've been starting to worry. Marth has stopped texting not only me but pretty much anyone. I assume she's been having some bad days but I didn't think at firsts that it would go to the extent that she would get distant from everyone. And even though I was suppose to stay in my home town for another month or two I decided that I would fly back over to her today. I tried texting and calling but she never responded. So I decided I had to go to her, she can't exactly ignore me if I was there in person. I was a little hurt that she would ignore me but at the same time I understood when people have bad days and they would just not look at their phone for days. I got out of the cab that I took from the airport and walked to her doorstep, I was glad she was still at her parent's house so I knew she was ok to a certain extent. I knocked on the front door, backpack in hand, not too long later her mother opened the door shocked to see me because I was suppose to be on the other side of the world at home. "Hello Mrs Woertman, sorry I came without calling but Marth hasn't been answering my calls or texts and I've gotten quite worried." I say now realising I probably should have called beforehand but was too busy thinking if Marth was ok. "Actually I'm really glad your here." Her mum responded with a slight worrying look. "How is she?" I ask worried. "She's been having her bad days, she hasn't come out of her room in a while." Her mum said with a frown but looked at me with hope in her eyes. "I'll do everything that I can, I promise." I say determination in my voice. "Thank you." Her mum says grateful and looking a lot less worried than seconds before. I then make my way into the kitchen first to make Marth and I a cup of tea. When I was done I went straight to Marth's door and knocked. The music cut off and her tired voice rang through "Go away please." My breath hinched in my throat thinking of how tired she sounded. It hurt me to know that she's not ok and that she's hurting. "But I brought tea." I say shrugging my shoulders even though I knew she couldn't see me. At first I heard nothing, but then I heard her get off her bed and walk to the door. She then opens the door to reveal how wrecked she looked probably howled up in her room with no motivation whatsoever to leave her bed. My heart ached to see her in this state. I quickly put the two cups of tea onto the floor to the side. As soon as I stand up again and face her she pulls me into a hug. I hug her back tight and breathe in her familiar scent instantly calming me down. It smelt like home, sure I had to go home at some point to visit family and friends but the whole time I was missing being in Marth's arms. I was soon snapped out of my daydream when I felt droplets falling into my head followed by a few sniffles. I tighten my hug into Marth my heart clenching at how much Marth had been hurting. Tears threatened to fall from my eyes but I knew she needed me and I needed to stay strong for her at least for now. "I've missed you so much." Marth mutters softly into the crook of my neck. "I've missed you so much too baby." I say softly into her chest. "When do you have to go back again?" It hurt to think she was scared of me having to leave again even if it would just be for maybe a week or two but I knew she would have to ask eventually. "I haven't actually bought a return flight yet." I confess, I totally didn't think of going back home yet because all I could think of was getting to her and making sure she's ok. "Then don't go back." Marth says simply still hugging me. I let out a chuckle and say "I have to go back eventually baby. But you could always come with me." I suggest. At this suggestion it seemed she had lightened up a a bit and pulled away from the hug just enough so that she could look me in the eyes. I then continued "We could always alternate it and I could come back with you and you could come back with me. Well make it work." I suggest even though to most it would sound crazy. "Then let's do that." Marth answered both of us always hated having to leave the other even if it was for a week. Sure it sounded like a crazy idea but we both knew ever since we got together that we were inseparable.
