Day off

Tw: mentions of child abuse

(Marjorie's pov)

Today is the day me and Reece both have off. I can't wait to spend today with him, just cuddling on the sofa or in bed, maybe go for a walk, just see where the day takes us. It's currently 5am. I don't know why I'm awake this early, I'm happy I get today off I guess. Now I have to wait for Reece to wake up, knowing him it probably won't be long, but who knows.

I decide to get up, make my way downstairs and make myself and him a coffee, may as well utilise the time. I start making the coffee when I start to hear noises. It's probably Reece half waking up and going to the bathroom. I can expect him to call for me when he properly wakes up in a few minutes. What I am not expecting is someone to come up behind me and put their hands on my shoulders. Without thinking I turn around and slap whoever it is, making them let go of me and hold their face. That's when I realise who it is. Reece.

I instantly place my hands on his face, rubbing his check where I hit him. "I'm so sorry my love, oh gosh I really didn't mean to, I am really.." he cuts me off by putting a hand on my cheek and smiling at me. I'm confused, I just hurt him why is he smiling?

"It's ok gorgeous. You weren't expecting me to be there, I scared you. At least now we know that anyone who tries that is going to get what for." he laughs slightly at the end, to which I playfully slap him on the arm, turning around to finish the drinks.

I hand him his mug and we go sit down on the sofa, my head resting on his shoulder. "I am sorry though, my slap, it had some power behind, it must've hurt, even just a little." I say, looking up at him. He takes my coffee from my hands, places it down with his on the table in front of us and then pulls me onto his lap.

"Look here you," he says, gently poking my chest, "You did not do anything wrong, yes it may have hurt, but it was only self defence, I scared you, and who knew my gorgeous girlfriend was so strong? It's extremely sexy and hot." he says, finishing with a brushing, passionate kiss on my lips.

"Hey mister," I say, breaking the kiss, "none of that today, or at least for now. Let's do something fun today, it's our only day off together for a while." He looks at me, pretending to be shocked. "Who said I'm not fun?" he asks, a grin creeping across his face, as I give him a look.

"You know what I mean", I respond, climbing off his lap and making my way upstairs, "I'm going to get changed now." I say, looking to see he is still sat down, I shrug it off and go upstairs.

I come downstairs about 15 minutes later, all dressed and ready for the day. I've chosen not to put makeup on, Reece always says he prefers me without it. I walk downstairs to still find him sitting in the same place, however now muttering under his breath and holding his cheek, the one I hit. I knew it must of hurt more than he said. I slowly creep closer, trying not to startle him, I'm now in the doorway and I'm close enough to hear what he is muttering. "No dad.... not Aut... leave her alone.... hit me instead... Dad stop..." I move carefully round to the front of the room, and now I can see tears streaming down his face. What have I done?

I move slowly to be in front of him, crouching down. "Hey baby, it's me Marjorie. You're okay, you're safe, it's only me Marjorie." I gently talk to him, I don't want to startle him. He looks down at me and I gently reach for his hands, taking them in mine and gently rubbing them. "Hey my love, can you hear me?" I ask, and he nods, "Ok good, you know where you are, who you're with?" I ask, trying to get him to come out of the flashback. "I'm at my home, the one I share with you, my girlfriend." he responds.

"Okay well done Reece," I say, I let go of his hands and stand up. "Come sit with me, please?" he asks, patting his lap, to which I gently smile and sit on his lap, wrapping my arms around him as he wraps his around me. We just sit there cuddling, taking each other in, grounding each other. I gently relax the hug, leaning back slightly to place my hand on his cheek. "Do you want to talk about what happened?" I ask, not putting any pressure on him. "It can't hurt." he responds, gently pecking my lips.

"So you know how my dad used to hit me?" I nod. "Well I still remember the first time he tried to go after Autumn, he was extra violent that night and I stepped in to protect her, as I always did. I still remember the sting of the first slap. I guess when you hit me earlier it brought that memory right up from where I buried it." he finishes, tears rolling down his cheeks. I bring my hands up and wipe away the tears, gently holding and stroking his cheeks.

"I'm sorry Reece. I never knew that he was that bad. I love you, and I would never do anything to hurt you. I won't ever let anyone hurt you for as long as I live, I promise you." I say, gently placing a kiss on his lips.

"Thank you Marjorie. I really don't know what I would do without you, you complete me. I love you so much." he responds, pulling me back in for a kiss.

I break from the kiss, "You said you wanted to go somewhere today?" I ask, not forgetting this is our one day off together. She looks at me, debating on what to say.

"Hmmm.. I mean it would be nice but maybe we stay in? Cuddle up together and stick on some movies?" she suggests, raising an eyebrow, waiting for my response. "I would love nothing more than that, but.." a huge smile creeps across her face, then dims when she hears the last part, "I need to go to the shops, grab some things." I tell her, picking her up off my lap, placing her on the sofa then standing up. I look down to see a pout come across her face, so to fix it I lean close to her and give her a quick kiss on the lips, moving my face to her ear, "I'll be back as quickly as I can, don't miss me too much" I say as I shoot out the door.

I do manage to get everything quicker than I expected, it was only a few bits and people to do a bit of baking, then I rush home, eager to be with my loving girlfriend.

I close the front door and make my way in to the living room, I'm about to announce my presence, as to not repeat earlier this morning, when I look to see Marjorie has fallen asleep on the sofa. I quietly creep back out of the room and get a start on making the cookies. I manage to finish baking them and then clean everything up and Marjorie still hasn't awoken.

I make my way into the living room, to find her in a position that doesn't look comfy, so I gently pick her up, as to not disturb her and I carry her upstairs. I lay her down in bed and get in next to her. She immediately cuddles into me and I kiss the top of her head.

"Thank you gorgeous, I can't believe I got so lucky with you. I love you endlessly." I whisper, kissing her head again. "I love you too Reecey." she whispers half asleep, lazily lifting her head up and kissing my cheek, before dozing back off to sleep. This is where our day off will be spent, cuddling in bed.
