PERIODS [KAZ HC'S]

Request: Kaz taking care of his S/O who's on their periods

Warnings: obviously mentions of blood because reader is on their periods, but there are no pronouns used so I tagged this as gn reader! (Sorry to those who don't have periods but in the modern world it's not a women only thing) Also I slightly based this on my periods because it was the easiest and the most natural way for me, and that way these won't be too unrealistic. Also mentions of vomiting and all kinds of pains, and OOC Kaz (the boi is #soft)

- The first time it happens after you two started dating and he saw it, he doesn't really know what to do.

- One evening you were fine and the next morning you barely got out of bed because you were in so much pain.

- He of course knew what periods are and didn't freak out when he saw the blood on your bedsheets (even though he was a bit startled at first because of course you're important to him and his first thought was that you're injured somehow).

- He also learns that Inej and Nina have been helping you when it's particularly bad.

- But then Kaz wanted to treat you himself, which was a surprise to everyone as he's not really a... nursing type.

- He claimed that he wants you to be on your best state when that time of the month is over because you being exhausted means that your heists would be successful less likely, but the girls could see that he's worried about you.

- They give him a little tutorial how to ease your pains, but massages and such things requiring touching skin were left for Inej.

- (It was also an excuse to spend more time with you because you didn't really feel like going on walks or hanging out in his office while your womb was beating your insides up on your every waking hour and occassionally at night too for a week)

- He's completely different when it comes to you being in so much pain. He can't bear seeing you like that, so he does everything to help you.

- He tries to hide his soft side from everyone else, of course.

- Nina makes a teasing remark about him being almost motherly to you and he should make a pie with ice cream, but Kaz sent her his famous death glare and she shut up.

- (Or Matthias made her shut up because he was scared for his girlfriend)

- Kaz secretly takes a note on that and though he doesn't bake it himself, he fetches you a cake or a pie and ice cream as sugar is the best painkiller during periods.

- If you have nausea, he's quick to hand a bucket to you when he sees the signs, and also if you have longer hair, he holds it back while you vomit (when you've been dating for a while and he's comfortable enough with touching a part of you which isn't skin)

- If Kaz is lost at the morning, he has most likely fallen to sleep on your armchair while sitting by your bed and reading you a book to make you concentrate on his voice rather than your pains while falling asleep.

- And you're not gonna lie, you like seeing him slouched over and snore slightly at the morning, his cane lying between his legs.

- The bad side is that his back hurts when he finally wakes up = he is grumpier at the morning.

- Not to you though as he knows that your emotions are acting up and he doesn't want to trigger anything.

- He does his best, and sometimes you even wait for your periods as that means that you get to see Kaz's softer side once again - the side which makes your heart flutter in a whole new way.

- Kaz Rietveld was down there, and he tried to come up whenever you needed him. And often Kaz allowed him to come up, even when Kaz Brekker pushed him back down on the second he left your room.

- Kaz had lost someone he cared for once, and even though that was the biggest reason why he became a ruthless criminal he was - with you he allowed himself to love again, to care again and even show it.

- When your periods are over, Kaz Brekker takes control again with you too, even when he lets his past self peek around the corner when it's just you two there. He doesn't show you affection the same way than he shows it when you're on your periods and need it (yet), but it goes without saying. Kaz Brekker wasn't ready to be sentimental.

- But even he cares and is willing to help you through your painful days of the month, every time.
