Stress

(Reece's pov)

Marjorie is stressed. I don't know what about or why but she is. She hasn't told me outright but the little things have built up. She couldn't find two matching socks the other day and got super frustrated and mad. She couldn't get the keys in the door last night and huffed loudly before putting them in my hand. And right now, she is rushing about the kitchen, huffing and puffing angrily, only making a sandwich.

"Gorgeous?" I ask, leaning against the door frame, hoping if I could just talk to her she might be able to lift some stress off. "Reece I'm busy, what's wrong?" she says not looking up at me but going back and forth from the fridge to the counter. "Are you ok? You seem stressed?" I ask, as she stops in the middle of the kitchen. "Reece, can't you see I'm busy, I don't have time for you right now, I have important things to do, not talk" she replies, moving back to the counter. Ouch, that kinda hurts, I hope she is just stress talking because that is not Marjorie, I am important to her, I think at least.

I decide to take this into my own hands. As she is on her way back to the fridge, I walk over to her, standing in front blocking her path. "Reece What...!" she starts to yell, but I interrupt with a firm kiss on her lips. I feel her tense up but then instantly relax into it, kissing back. She breaks away, "Reece, what was that for?" she asks, her arms snaking around my neck, as mine meet her waist. "To calm you down, help take some stress away. Now did it work?" I ask, smiling at her. "I mean I could use another one?" she says, placing a kiss on my lips, breaking away and letting go of me, walking back to her food, picking it up and eating a bite, "I mean I guess this will do, it's the best thing I can make anyway." she says, laughing at the end. I walk over to her, turning her around to face me, with her standing against the counter with a sandwich in her hand and innocent look across her face. I lean in and take a bite of the sandwich, which actually was really nice. "That's really nice, why were you stressing over it?" I ask her.

"Well I mean I guess it wasn't the sandwich, because it is only something little. I think I'm just over working myself and I'm getting to the end of my tether with work and the parents, so any little thing not going my way is really frustrating me, sorry." she says placing the sandwich down on the counter. I just smile even more and kiss the top of her head. "Oh gorgeous, you don't need to be sorry for that, it happens and it was a matter of time, because you really dedicate yourself to your work, and that's what everyone loves about you at work, but you do need to switch off sometimes. I know you hate it but it's necessary so you don't work yourself to the point of burnout." I tell her, pulling her into a tight hug.

I pick her up as she wraps her body around me. "Reece! What are you doing?!?!" she yells, panic shoots across her face. "Just taking you somewhere comfortable." I respond, carrying her over to the sofa and placing her down gently, sitting next to her.

Reece places me down on the sofa, sitting next to me, where I crawl over to him and snuggle close into his side, resting my head against his shoulder and my hand on his chest, over his heart, feeling his heartbeat. "You know that only beats for you?" he says, kissing the side of my head. A huge smile creeps across my face, "Aww, Reece I love you, I almost can't believe it, hearing it beat for me is the reason I keep going." I say, my voice breaking towards the end, and a few tears falling.

"Oh baby, I didn't mean to make you cry." he says, wiping away the tears, even though more keep falling, no matter how hard I try to stop them. "No it's not you, I just think everything has finally caught up, and I can't stop now." I reply, as he pulls me onto his lap, my head burying into the corner of his neck, more tears falling and my body wracking with sobs. Reece just rubs up and down my back to calm me, whispering sweet words into my ear.

Eventually the tears stop falling and I calm down. Now I start feeling tired, the crying really made me sleepy. "Reece??" I whisper, barely able to lift my head up to meet his eyes. "Yes gorgeous?" he asks, his voice laced with concern. "Can I go to sleep? I'm really tired." I sniffle, to which his eyes relax, now realising how much it's taken its toll on me. "Oh of course, do you want to go up to bed or stay here?" he asks. "If you are ok with it can we stay here, you are very comfy and I feel very close to you" I reply, to which he smiles, "Of course we can, anything for you gorgeous, you look super tired." he says, gently placing a kiss on my lips before I place my head back down onto his shoulder.

"I love you Reecey." I mumble into his shoulder, hoping he hears me. "I love you too Marjorie, endlessly." he responds, kissing the side of my head, before I drift off to sleep.
