In the morning, Arnav felt some movement and didn't want to wake up just yet. He tried snuggling more into his pillow, noting that it was softer than usual. But the movement was really disturbing him and he opened his eyes lazily. He realised the position he was in, his head on one of his wife's bosoms while his hand was on the other. He must have opened her shirt during the night because he was in direct contact with her skin, that explains the softness he felt earlier, he thought. He also realised that he was really aroused by their position, adding to his morning wood, this beautiful woman was really dangerous for his self control.

He felt the movement under him once again, and realised that Khushi was wriggling uneasily, her face was wincing in pain. Arnav didn't understand the reason, he quickly glanced at the clock and it was only 5am and Khushi was still scrunching her nose in pain. He decided to wake her up to know what was happening to her, he was totally worried by now.

Arnav tried to gently wake her up, and she wriggled a little more, squeezing her eyes tightly, but then opened them lightly, looking quizzically at her husband who just woke her up before the alarm rang.

"Is it already time to get up ? I'm still sleepy, could we go later please?"

She said in the cutest sleepy voice ever. Arnav smiled, slightly relieved as she didn't seem in pain anymore. But right after, she put her hand on her tummy, and winced in pain again.

"What's happening baby? you were wriggling and wincing in pain in your sleep too, can I do anything to help? Should I call a doctor?"

Khushi blushed a little, there was so much going on that she forgot that it was that time of the month, she wondered how to make him understand, she was always told it was something she shouldn't share about with anyone. But he was her husband, he'd find out anyway, so she tried to hint him to it.

"It's nothing, don't worry, it's just... you know, not the right time..."

Arnav tried to understand what she was actually talking about and then, something clicked in his mind, was she having her period? and if so, why couldn't she just say it clearly? Then he remembered how Anjali also would act a little weird some years ago when on her period, failing miserably to not make it obvious that she was having cramps and all. Why did girls have to act as if it was some governmental secret or something? He chuckled lightly at his own thought and glanced back at Khushi who was looking down, playing with her hands and hair in shyness. She is too cute for his poor heart to handle.

"You know, you can say "period" it's not a bad word, it's just something natural. And I'd have to keep track of it as well, I have to take care of you if you're not feeling well. Now, lay down properly, I'll be back in a minute."

He kissed her lightly on her temple before going to the bathroom while tapping something on his phone.

Khushi was still blushing at his words, could he be that much caring? And could she be that lucky to have him all for herself? Argh, trust her hormones to make her feel all emotional about anything and everything!

Soon after, Arnav came back with a hot bottle and placed it on her lower abdomen.

"That helps me when I have muscle cramps after working out, that should help you too. I also googled a little more about period cramps, and there's something that could help relieve you and that we could both enjoy."

He was smirking at the end, and Khushi knew he was up to something. And what was that miracle way that could relieve her from the cramps and would be enjoyable to him? She couldn't understand anything.
