Work Ethics

Running out of time

James POV:

Time was passing by way too quick for comfort and it really didn't help that every time I laid my head down to sleep for the night I had a vivid dream about terrible things happening to Y/n.

It was Sunday. Freshly starting the new week, and my anxiety skyrocketed. The act of truly telling Y/n everything scared me.

Not many things in this world frighten me but disappointing and hurting her did.

I shake off the thoughts and pull Y/n closer to me in bed. "Doll, I really hope you find somewhere in your heart to forgive me. Cause If you don't, I don't know what I'll do with myself" I mumble

"What did you say, sweets?" She groaned, groggy from the sudden awakening.

"Nothing darling, go back to sleep" I smile

She rests her face in the crook of my neck and falls back asleep.

I wait to hear her lightly snoring and a little drool to continue talking. "I hope you know I'm absolutely and completely in love with you, even if I don't have the guts to tell you myself"

I land a soft kiss on her ear and close my eyes. "You mean the world to me"

I woke up, ready to officially start the day, until I felt her presence missing. "Y/n?" I call

I look to her side of the bed then mine. The panic haults. A smile crosses my face as I examine what she had left me. A stack of pancakes with eggs and bacon on the plate and plum juice to finish off the meal.

Under the vase of flowers was a note that read:

Good morning Handsome,

I'm sorry I wasn't there when you woke up! I wanted to go get some things to make you dinner tonight. I hope you enjoy the breakfast I made for you, although  it's probably cold now. You can warm it up if you'd like. Also! I got you the vase of flowers this note was under. I'll be back as soon as I can, and I'll give you lots of kisses xoxo

-Your doll

Something as simple as breakfast and a note made me feel like my heart would explode. No one had ever given me flowers , or did a nice gesture like this in general.

I happily ate the meal she made me. Not having a care in the world that it was cold.

I hear the door rattling and of course, Y/n walks the door. I take the bags from her hand and pick her up. "I'm ready for your promise" I smile

"Alright, let me put away the groceries first" She laughs

She ushered me off to the couch where I sat and waited for her.

After putting away what she needed to put away, she came over and straddled my lap.

"So, what was this promise again?"

"Maybe I can help you figure it out" I smile, bringing her lips to mine and pushing my tongue in her mouth.

We make out for a bit until Y/n pulls away. "I said lots of kisses" She teased

She kisses my forehead then the bridge of my nose, my lips, cheek, temple and continues to peck me all over my face. I looked at her with so much love in my eyes, I felt that if she showed any more affection the words would fall right out of my mouth. "I was thinking..." I start

"Yes?"

"I wanna get a few tattoos while I'm here"

"Oh!? Where?" She smiled
