Emily 's POV

"We're here, my love." I whisper and playfully tap Y/N on the tip of her nose, whose head is resting tiredly on my shoulder.

She slept the whole way in the car and leaned against me when we checked in at reception, as if she wasn't really awake.
I slung our bags over my other shoulder and put my arm protectively around her while I got our key.
She made her way to the elevator with my help and immediately snuggled up to my side in the elevator and closed her eyes.

The elevator doors open with a ping,
but Y/N just snuggles closer to me.

"Can I help you?" I ask quietly and kiss her on the forehead.
After her weak agreement, I put one hand in the crook of her knee and one on the small of her back and lift her up effortlessly.
I carry her bridal style to our room, while she giggles and wraps her hands around my neck.
"Don't you only do that at weddings?"
she asks, suddenly looking more awake again.
"We'll just practice." I answer with a wink and gently set her down in front of the bedroom door to unlock it.
"That sounds good." she whispers more to herself and a smile lights up her face.

Seeing that beautiful smile makes me so happy.

I open the door and let Y/N go first.

I let our bags slide off my shoulder and put them aside, then turn to my girlfriend.
I wrap my hands around her waist and lean my head against her forehead.
"What do you want to do, my love? Take a shower or go straight to bed?
Should I order us something to eat?"
I ask, looking her straight in the eyes.
"A shower sounds good."
She sighs and wraps her hands around my neck.
"I want to wash this day away from me."
"Then I'll order something to eat in the meantime."
I suggest and lean back as her eyes widen in shock.
"Just in case you're hungry."
I say soothingly and smile at her.
She nods, gives me a kiss, and then heads over to our bags.
She rummages through her go bag for a few clothes, then she smiles tiredly at me and walks into the bathroom, a little unsteady on her feet.
She closes the door behind her and you hear the shower curtain being pulled aside.

There is a brief silence, then she opens the door again and sticks her head in.

"Thank you for the shower chair, darling." She says gratefully and looks at me lovingly, but also slightly embarrassed.

"Of course, angel." I coo and blow her a kiss.

When I reserved our room over the phone, I asked for a shower chair to be provided so that she doesn't have to shower standing up after the long day.
I'm glad that it makes her feel comfortable.
I was a little worried that she would take it the wrong way or get sad.

I just want her to be okay.

She closes the door with a smile and then I hear the shower.
Meanwhile, I order us pizza and pick out a film.

I know that it is easier for her to eat when a movie is playing.
Then she feels safer and unobserved.
