VALERIES POV

The minute they got home, Corpse sunk into his bed. She knew he was exhausted, but he never slept and she was sure he wouldn't this time either. She walked up to him, and held her arms out for him to embrace her in a hug. He took it, and she could tell he was in pain. 

"Hey my love," she said, taking a finger under his chin and making him look at her, "I'm gonna make you some food, if you want to join me downstairs you can, but please get some rest if that's what you need." She kissed his forehead, as he muttered a small thank you. There weren't enough words in the world that would describe how much she meant to him. 


Heading downstairs, she decided that his place was a mess, and also cleaned up for him. Wifey material, ain't I right? She then began to make homemade pizza, with some home made garlic bread on the side. She was very proud of herself for doing it as well. She could tell, even though he was at a low point, he was helping her mentality a lot. 

She continued to cook, while large thumps made its way downstairs.


"Something smells amazing," was the first thing he had said once he came home. He looked around at how clean the place was, he admired her everyday. 

"Thank you!" she smiled at him, "I made pizza and garlic bread. I wasn't sure what you'd like, but I hope you enjoy." She handed him a plate, and the food was gone by the time she went to sit down with hers. He continued to eat; he hadn't eaten in three days. He took in every part about her, like he was going to lose her too. 

After a bit of silence, Valerie stared at the man, she had this reoccurring feeling and she wanted to express it but wasn't sure how. Lust? She couldn't put her finger on it.

"I was thinking we could build a fort and just watch movies?" Valerie looked at Corpse with a hopeful look in her eyes. He nodded yes while shoving more food in his mouth. "Jesus don't choke." 

"Choke me like you hate me but you love me," They both chuckled and started building. 



After the fort was done, the two sat and picked a movie. They decided on Pixels, the movie with Adam Sandler. They sat together, cuddled up and enjoyed their time together. 

"There's something I want to tell you but I'm not sure what," Valerie looked at Corpse. 

"Oh?" he looked worried, "I'm sorry if I did something."

"You didn't do anything," she began, "you just make me extremely happy. Every part of you. I'm here for you always. Your darkest and brightest of days. You make me happier just sitting next to you." 

"I think the word you're looking for is love," he said, avoiding eye contact. It was silent for a minute, before she started to speak again. 

"I'm not exactly sure what love feels like anymore," she shook, "but I love you Corpse."

"I love you too,"
