I sat there on our couch with both of my hands on my face. I could feel my hands getting wet from the tears that were coming from my eyes. As they got full of tears, I pulled them away from my face and wiped them on my sweatpants, making them get stained of water. Then I proceeded to wipe my face with my hands.
Victoria was in the kitchen making me some tea. She knew it was my favorite and with the situation right now, she knew it would make me somewhat better.
A few minutes earlier we were watching our show, "The Bachelor", when I received a call. A call that I expected but never wanted. My grandmother had passed. I knew her time was coming, but it was something I never wanted to happen. So I wasn't ready.
As I heard my mother speak those words through the phone, I could myself starting to have a panic attack. Victoria knew when I would have those. So she sat up, started rubbing my back, and calmly told me to breath.
I dropped the phone and did as she instructed me. I could hear my mother on the other end. "Hello?"
After I had calmed down, feeling the attack passing through, I threw myself into Victoria's arms. I let it all out. After awhile, I heard the sound of the phone call ending. I had forgotten my mother was still on the phone, so I looked up from Victoria's arms and saw my phone on the floor. I quickly picked it up and started swiping on the screen, but Victoria took the phone out of my hands and placed it on the coffee table in front of us. She then opened her arms for entrance. I softly scooted to her and placed myself in her arms. She rubbed my back and kissed my forehead as I laid there crying.
"Hey, you want some tea?"
After awhile of just laying there, I looked up at her and nodded, smiling. She gave me a sad smile and got up. She made her way to the kitchen and started brewing the pot on the stove. I started thinking about my grandmother and started bawling my eyes out. It was happy memories but it still made me sad. I couldn't believe she was gone. Not now. Victoria ran from the kitchen, not even caring the stove was on. She sat back down next to me and side hugged me, putting her head on my shoulder. She rubbed my neck as I had my head in my hands.
I looked up from my hands.
"It's ok, I'll be ok."
"I know you will be babe. I got you, you know that right?"
I gave her a half smile, fully knowing that she did.
"I'm so glad I have you in my life."
She smiled. "Yeah I know."
I sadly giggled.
"I miss her already."
"She knows. She's watching over you now. She's in peace. You don't have to worry about her ever suffering again."
I could feel the tears coming again. I quickly tried to swallow them back.
"I'm gonna go keep making your tea. You can go ahead and unpause them show to get yourself distracted."
I nodded. Quickly picking up the remote from in front of me, I unpaused our show.
I became so into the show, I didn't notice Victoria standing in front of me holding the cup of tea. When I realized, I laughed.
"Oh my god, I didn't even see you there."
"Yeah I can tell." She giggled.
I took the cup from her hands and set on my lap. It was hot so I blew on it. By this time, I had forgotten about the news. I knew this wasn't going to last long so I took advantage and tried not to think about it. I had my girlfriend next to me, my favorite show, and a hot cup of tea.
I looked beside me to see Victoria sitting with a pillow on her lap.
"I love you."
She turned to look at me from the TV screen.
"Well, I love you."
She moved the pillow a few and leaned in to kiss me. I smiled throughout the kiss. I knew she would be there for me for anything. Even for loss.
And I loved her for it.
