Soft sugg warning

"Jospeh, my love, I'm going to bed now"
Dianne crept into Joe's office, wondering up to his chair and wrapping her arms around him from behind. He spinner round in his chair to face her and reached his arm up to her waist, pulling her in.

"You tired then little one? It's only half past eight"
Joe asked her

"I know. I'm not feeling the best though, I'm absolutely knackered"
She told him

"Oh....do you feel ok?"
A worried look appeared on his face as he grabbed her hands in his, rubbing his thumb over her knuckles.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just really tired. Drained. Exhausted"
She said yawning

"You are arent you baby, you go up ok. I'll come up in a few hours, if you need something come and tell me, wont you."
He told her

"I will, dont worry. Night little one"

"Good night dot, love you"
Joe smiled

"I love you too"
Dianne learned down pressing a soft kiss to Joe's lips before turning around and wondering our of his office.

"See you soon dot"
Joe called out as she gently closed the door behind her and began to make her way upstairs. Dianne turned into her and Joe's room and over to the wardrobe, pulling out the first pair of pyjamas she could find and slowly pulling them over her body with every last little bit of energy she had before pulling the duvet back and climbing into the cold bed. She snuggled down, her face pressed againts Joe's pillow so she felt like he was there next to her. She closed her eyes gently but it hurt her head. She was seeing stars even with her eyes closed so tight. It was like she was being pressed againts something. There was so much pressure againts every part of her body. Her legs were resting but they felt so heavy, bringing her down even though she was laying in bed. She felt some kind of heavy pressure againts her thighs and a stabbing pain to her stomach. A sick feeling arose into her chest and through her throat and her neck felt like it was carrying so much weight.

She turned to her bedside table, picking up her phone and checking the time realising how long she had really been laying there for.
10:03pm
Time had flown by, but yet gone so slow. The pain hadn't gone and joe wasn't here yet. She stood up out of bed, steadying herself from a wave of dizziness that hit her and made her way into the bathroom.

"Jospeh"
Joe heard that familiar voice of his girlfriend, it didn't sound full of life like it normally did though. He turned around his office chair to see her stood againts the door frame of his office, tears running down her face and clutching her stomach.

"What's wrong?.....you ok?"
He asked her

"It hurts"
She stuttered her lip trembling as tears rolled down her cheek.

"What hurts dot? What's happened?"
He asked stretching his arms out for her. She walked up to him, and he scooped her up in his arms as she sat down on his lap.

"My tummy. I've just come on my period"
She told him crying into his shoulder.

"Aww dot, you dont normally get pain like this do you."
He stroked her hair, pressing a kiss to her jawline.

"No, it really hurts joe."
She stuttered biting her lip in attempt to stop the pain.

"You poor thing, you'll get through it. You're the strongest woman I know. Do you want any painkillers or anything else? I can get them for you"
He told her

"Yeah, if you dont mind."

"Of course I don't mind. You're in pain and I love you. You'll have to get up though"
He told her

"I dont think I can stand up, it hurts."
Dianne wimpered

"I can carry you up to bed if you'd like, it's more comfortable up there. And then I'll bring everything up to you. How does that sound?"
He asked his girlfriend

"Amazing. Thank you joseph, you're the best"
She smiled to herself, she knew she had found the one in him.
With that, he stood up with her I'm his arms and started to walk up the stairs. He got to their bedroom and layed her in their bed, bringing the duvet up to her chest.

"Everything ok? Feel more comfortable?"
He asked

"Yep, thank you."
Dianne smiled

"Try and get some rest. I'll just go and get everything to make you feel better, shout if you need me"
He went out the room after tucking her in making sure she was ok for the hundredth time. He went into the kitchen and boiled the kettle with enough water for a herbal tea and her hot water bottle which he found and filled up as well as a mug of mint tea. He grabbed some ibuprofen aswell before taking it back up to her a few minutes later.

"Here we are dot"
He placed the cup of tea on her bedside table along with the painkillers.

"I got you a hot water bottle too. Do you want it on your tummy?"
He asked her and she nodded. Joe sat on the bed next to her, pulling the duvet back. He lifted up her shirt so the hot water bottle was directly on her skin and put the top back over it and then covering her back up with the duvet. Dianne then sat up a little reaching for the tablets, quickly swallowing them with the mint tea joe had made for her.

"Thank you"
She smiled as he took the tea once she had some putting it down for her.

"Feeling any better?"
He asked and she nodded

"You make everyhting so much better Joseph."
She told him making him smile

"I'm glad. Hopefully the painkillers kick in soon though so you can sleep because its keeping you awake. It's the worst when your tired but cant sleep"
He said

"Its awful.....are you coming to bed now too?"
She asked

"Yeah, I'm not tired but we can stay up, talk and....."

"Cuddle"
Dianne finshed his sentence for him knowing exactly what he was going to say.

"Yep, cuddle"
Joe smiled climbing into bed next to her

"Can you spoon me?"
She asked him

"Of course, only if I get to be little spoon tomorrow night though if you're feeling better obviously"
He said wrapping his arms around her

"Ok....I know how much you love being little spoon"
Dianne giggled, finding his hand, intertwining her fingers with his, and falling into a gentle uncompetitive game of thumb wars.

"Love you.....try and get some sleep"
Joe whispred into her ear, kissing her soft red hair.

"I will, I love you more"
Dianne said as she closed her eyes falling into a deep sleep she very much needed a few minutes later and joe following not long after, with their hands held in eachothers.
