Jasmine's POV:
I was sat up in bed, scrolling through the comments on my latest Instagram post, smiling at all of the sweet ones. I suddenly stopped, my heart sinking. All over the comments section, there were heart-breaking comments.
Username1: Her snort is so ugly.
Username2: Ikr I would hate to have a snort like that.
Username3: Anthony only dates her because he feels sorry for her and only fakes liking her snort.
I felt tears sliding down my face, but I was unable to stop them. I had always loved my snort, but now I felt insecure and ashamed of it. I heard Ant come back from the bathroom and quickly wiped my tears away, plastering a fake smile on my face in the process. Anthony slid into the bed next to me, putting his arm around me and kissing my cheek. I kissed him back, hoping to hid my emotional state from him, but he saw right through me.

Anthony's POV:
As I stumbled back to bed, wishing I was warm under the covers, I saw Jasmine hastily wipe tears from her face. I became concerned, climbing into bed and wrapping my arms around her delicate frame. I gently kissed her cheek, hoping to relieve some of the tension. I felt her relax slightly and she kissed me back lovingly. Up close, I could see the tear stains and hunched shoulders, forcing me to ask if anything was wrong.
"Hey Jas baby, what's wrong?" I asked quietly not wanting to scare her in any way.
"Nothing, I'm fine Ant. Don't worry about it." Jasmine replied unconvincingly. I gently cupped her chin and tilted it so she was facing me.
"I can tell you are upset about something and you know you can tell me anything"

Jasmine's POV
Shit.
He could tell something was wrong. I hadn't covered myself up enough.
"Nothing, I'm fine Ant. Don't worry about it." I replied uncertainly, hoping to keep it a secret. Anthony, however was not fooled. He looked concerned, saying
"I can tell you're upset about something and you know you can tell me anything." I sighed, giving in. I unlocked my phone before handing it to Anthony, turning away so he couldn't see the fresh wave of tears rolling down my cheeks. I heard him gasp softly before feeling his arms pull me gently towards him.

Anthony's POV
Jas unlocked her phone and handed it to me, turning away and hanging her head. I looked down and saw comments. Many of them telling Jasmine how ugly her snort was and how she should get rid of it. I gasped softly and pulled her into a cuddle. I loved her little snort. When I heard them, it always meant she was having fun and it was one of the many things I loved about her. I felt the tears soak my shirt and held her closer, humming Dear Theodosia under my breath to help her relax. I spoke softly
"Don't listen to them Jazzy, I love your snort and you know that. It means that your happy and having great time, and I love it when that happens" I reassured her, rubbing my thumbs over her knuckles.
"Really?" Jasmine asked disbelievingly before whispering "I love you"
I responded quietly "I love you to"
I held her tight to my chest humming softly as I heard her drift off to sleep. I made sure she was definitely asleep before settling down beside her and closing my eyes.
