[A/N: I got inspired by Kirinyan's period comfort asmr. You guys should give it a listen when you're on your period or even when you're not on it. Also, just a heads up, I don't get period pains so I don't know how period pain feel like oop-]
You hear the bedroom door softly open and you peek up from the fetal position you're in to meet your boyfriend's gaze who softly smiles at you.
"Hold on a minute," Mingyu softly says as he slowly makes his way over to the bed, balancing a steaming cup of tea in one hand and ibuprofen in his other hand. Once he reaches the bed, he carefully places the cup of tea and ibuprofen on the bedside table.
"I'm so glad I have chamomile tea at home," Mingyu says, sounding terribly glad to have tea at his house that can help you with your cramps.
Mingyu gazes at your lying form and his heart tugs at the sight of you in pain. He feels a frown tug on his lips, "This must be really hard on you, right?" :(
You hum in agreement, unable to describe the pain of the first day of your menstruation cycle. You continue clutching tightly at your stomach as you feel more cramps.
"Women are very powerful," Mingyu says almost to himself but very much audible.
He bends down to your ear before speaking in his mellow voice, "Babe, the tea is on the bedside table, okay? It's nice and warm for you. And I bought medicine for you. You should take the medicine to help with the pain."
He gently runs his hands down your arms to try and and get you to move out from your fetal position, "How does that sound, hmm? Take the medicine so that you can ease your pain and ease me from my worry a little, hmm?"
You gently get up from your position with help from Mingyu.
"Here," Mingyu hands you the tea with the medicine. You drink the tea and take the medicine gratefully. "Thank you, Gyu," you say.
Mingyu smiles cutely.
"You don't have to thank me, babe. Here give it to me," Mingyu says, referring to the cup you have finished taking sips from. You hand over the cup to Mingyu and he places it on the bedside table.
"Does it hurt here?" Mingyu asks pointing at your stomach. You want to sarcastically reply to your goofy boyfriend but you get cut off by a dull ache.
"Hey, hey take it easy. Lie down, okay? The medicine will kick in soon."
"Will you lie down with me, please?" you ask him.
"Are you sure?" Mingyu asks and at your nod he beams at you before settling down behind you in bed, throwing his arms around you and effectively spooning you and giving you a backhug.
His huge, warm body and hug feels very pleasant and comforting, making you feel safe and warm. Mingyu covers both of you in a big quilt laying on the bed. "Are you okay with this position?"
"Yes, I'm very much okay with it."
"That's good," Mingyu hugs you tighter, "Do you want me to give you belly rubs? To help with the cramps? Can I?"
You nod. Mingyu places his big hands on your tummy and begins rubbing and caressing your abdomen. You sigh at the little relief.
"I will always be by your side today," Mingyu says near your ear before placing a gentle kiss on your temple.
"Only for today?" You jokingly ask and Mingyu chuckles right into your neck,"Oh my god, you know what I mean. I mean for your whole menstruation cycle."
After the playful and joking atmosphere, both of you guys lapse into a peaceful silence with Mingyu continuously patting your abdomen with his big, warm palms and humming peacefully next to your ear.
Suddenly Mingyu's mellow rich voice begins singing gently in your ear. "pain pain go away/fly away~"
"Mingyu..."
"I hope it'll be gone soon. Get well soon~ get well soon~ get better soon~ get better soon" Mingyu says near your ear and continues rubbing your belly, "It would be really great if I could take the pain away." :(
You don't reply to his words but gently place your palm on his hands and squeeze his hands as a thankful gesture.
He smiles before continuing to rub your belly and continue saying meaningful sentiments in your ear.
"Is this troublesome for you?" You softly mumble when there's a lull in the atmosphere.
"Hm? What did you say, babe?" Mingyu asks, cuddling into your warm neck.
"Is this troublesome for you?" You repeat your question because you're suddenly feeling bad.
You have reason to feel bad because today was the day that you guys were going to spend time with Mingyu's friends when suddenly you got your period in the morning and you know how first day period cramps are a bitch so naturally the plans for the day got cancelled. Yet you still feel bad...
"What?? No, of course not!" Mingyu says, almost taken aback by your question.
"Not at all, babe. Just staying together like this with you makes me very happy," Mingyu says in your ear, hugging you tighter.
"Hey, hey don't be cheesy now," you say, embarrassed and not believing him.
"It's true though," he kisses your temple, "It's very much true. Just being together with you like this and offering you comfort like this, I'm very happy."
"Thank you, baby. I don't deserve you," you say and you squeeze his hands with yours.
"No ways, babe. I don't deserve you."
He kisses your temple
"How are you feeling now, babe? Can I get you anything?" Mingyu asks, "Are you okay? Do you want more tea?"
You shake your head, "I'm fine. The medicine is finally beginning to kick in so I'm doing better now. I just want to be in your arms."
"Okay, I can do that. I'm glad you're feeling a little better now. You're so strong. You're so powerful."
He kisses your temple again.
"You can be in my arms for however long you like, okay? If you're feeling tired you can just close your eyes and rest, okay? I'm right here. You should have a good rest. And when you wake up, I'll make you your most favourite food!"
"I love you, Gyu."
"I love you too. Now go rest!"
