Baby steps

"Hey hunny," You hear your boyfriend chime in as he peaks his head in the room, "How are you feeling today?"

You shrug, still feeling off and discomforted with your body and emotions.

Your boyfriend approaches the side of the bed that you're laying on as he kneels down to face you.

"I know it's rough, baby. But l'm here if you need to talk." He smiles softly and gazes deeply into your eyes.

You shrug and roll over.

"Aw...I want to see your handsome face~" He chimes, climbing over you and laying besides you. He cuddles you gently.

"Listen pumpkin...I know how overwhelmed you've been with everything...school...work....idiots...heh.." Your boyfriend lists, gently playing with your hair, "And I know the dysphoria has been bad lately...and that's okay to feel that way. I just need you to know that I love you no matter what."

Your boyfriend scoots closer, cuddling into you more, "And I think it'd be good for you to get up...have a nice shower...have a good lunch...brush your teeth...put on your favorite outfit...comb your hair.." He sighs, kissing your cheek softly, "Or..you don't have to. And that's okay too. Baby steps are important."

You sigh, looking at him. He smiles and kisses your lips softly, "How about just a shower for now? I know it's tough..but I bet you'd feel refreshed. And while you're in there I'll make your favorite ---think of your favorite food here---"

You think about his offer before nodding softly. He smiles and kisses you a few more times before scooting away and sitting up.

He walks over to your side of the bed, helping you up.

As he does so, you get self conscious as you realize just how long you haven't gotten up to do anything..

You express this to your boyfriend but he cuts you off, "Baby...its okay. I don't know exactly what you're going through...and I don't know what..dysphoria...or being trans is like..but I can still try my best to be here for you and be understanding."

You nod softly, still feeling a bit upset.

He helps you get up, walking you to the bathroom, "Okay..are you alright to do everything else from here?" He asks softly.

You nod and he smile, pecking you on the cheek, "Okay. Just yell if you need me, handsome."

And with that you're left alone in the bathroom. You manage to take a nice calming shower, trying not to pay much mind to your body. Maybe you sat down in the shower or maybe you didn't..either way it's still some very good progress.

You finish your shower, getting out and drying off. You get on some comfy pajama pants and your boyfriends sweatshirt that was just the right amount of oversized to not only give you just the right amount of gender euphoria but also be so comfy for no reason.

Just as you had finished changing your boyfriend comes in, holding a plate of your favorite food and a bottle of water.

"Ah, you're already out of the shower!" He exclaims, setting the two items on the dresser, "How was it?" He hums, walking over and holding you in an embrace.

You explain in a short fashion how you enjoyed the shower.

He smiles softly and sweetly, "That's great!" He kisses your cheek, "Are you hungry?" He asks.

You nod softly. He picks up the plate, handing it to you as you sit on the bed. He then also hands you the water.

You take a small bite, realizing just how much you've missed your boyfriends cooking over a few bags of greasey chips and some still half frozen dinners all because you didn't want to get up...no no...you couldn't get up. Or you didn't want to bother your boyfriend so you just half heated a microwaveable meal and said good enough.

"How is it?" He hums.

You tell him how good it is and he smiles, "Im glad you like it! I can make it for you anytime." He hums.

You continue eating, finishing it as you take a few sips of your water.

Your boyfriend takes the bowl, "Alright, my beautiful boy." He hums, picking you up, "How about some cuddles and a movie?" He asks.

You nod softly, smiling and he carries you to a side of the bed and lays you down, he then grabs the TV remote, "What movie do you want to watch?"

You think before telling him your favorite. He smiles and nods, "I like that one a lot too."

He lays next to you, cuddling you as the movie loads up.

"I'm so proud of you...I hope you know that. The fact that you got up and showered today.. and also ate a good meal...thats such a big step for you and I'm very very proud." He hums, kissing your neck softly and you now lay a little bit on top of him as he leans against the headboard of the bed.

"And I know you feel like you've let me...everyone down...but you haven't. And I'm just so proud and happy to have you as my boyfriend." He smiles, kissing your cheek.

"And you're so handsome, beautiful, gorgeous, absolutely stunning, amazing, adorable, lovable-"

You start blushing and giggling a bit.

"Theres that giggle I love..." Your boyfriend smiles, kissing you on the lips a few times, "I love you so much.." He says as the movie finally loads...
