Another week comes and goes, I'm exiting the bathroom when I feel a stab of pain in my stomach, it attacks my body in quick jabs, I crawl quickly back into bed as I groan,

Another week comes and goes, I'm exiting the bathroom when I feel a stab of pain in my stomach, it attacks my body in quick jabs, I crawl quickly back into bed as I groan,

"What's wrong?" Aaron asks tugging me close, my back to his warm chest,

"My stupid period that's what" I whine in pain

"Did you bring anything from your place to help with the pain?" He asks sliding his hand on my stomach, the immediate warm from his hand fills me with slight relief,

I shake my head "keep your hand here it's warm" I mumble

He pulls me flush against his body and puts both of his hands on my stomach "does that help a little?" he asks

I nod and lean into his touch,

I think periods are the stupidest thing out there...why the hell is my body being punished for not having a child?

Like yeah, I want one but like not right this second...

I put my hands on top of Aaron's to apply pressure so its warmer,

"How are your hands always so warm?" I whisper

He chuckles "how are your hands always so cold?"

"Smart ass" I mutter

My periods are very irregular sometimes I won't get a period for a couple of months and then boom she's back, it's quite annoying and can be unpredictable,

"Is there anything else I can do to help?" he asks

"Yes you can keep your hands where they are and shush please" I frown

I feel the vibrations of his laugh which usually would make me happy, but right now while I'm in pain it's annoying me that he's not staying still,

"Okay, get rest I love you," he says gently kissing my ear

I hum in response because I'm in too much pain to talk,

A couple of hours later I wake up and see Aaron typing away on his computer but one of his hands is still on my stomach, I smile as I look at him,

He notices my shuffling and looks over at me "how do you feel?" he asks rubbing his hand over my stomach in circles which helps

"Better when you do that" I point to his Hand

He smiles and continues rubbing circles on my stomach, "I put a bunch of different chocolate on your nightstand if you want it and there's water and an Advil" he says nodding to the nightstand on my side
