Bad day

(Marjorie's pov)

I've woken up earlier than usual today, not looking forward to work, I've been anxious about it for a while now. I'm just lying here starting at the ceiling, not sure what to do. I can't go back to sleep because once I'm awake, I'm awake. But I don't want to disturb Reece, he needs whatever sleep he can get, seeing as he has been have rough nights lately. I slowly crawl out of bed, careful not to make too much noise, and make my way downstairs. I sit on the sofa, it's too early to start doing anything in the kitchen as that will certainly wake up Reece, so I guess I'll just sit on the sofa until I'm able to do something without the risk of it being too early.

I'm just scrolling on my phone when I hear noise upstairs, an alarm to be more specific. I go to get up when I realise I may as well wait for Reece to come down, so then we can both be in the kitchen together. I resume my scrolling when I hear Reece yelling, "Marjorie?!", the panic in his voice is very apparent. I just smile, knowing that I have a very protective, loving boyfriend, "Down here!" I yell back and in an instant he is running down the stairs and darts for the kitchen, not realising I'm in the living room. I hear him panic check the kitchen before running back out and into the living room, making eye contact with me and instant relief washes over him. "Oh thank goodness gorgeous, you scared me for a second" he says, making his way over to me and leaning down, giving me a kiss. "Sorry darling." I say giving him another kiss before standing up and connecting us into a tight embrace.

"You okay gorgeous? How long have you been awake?" he says, releasing the embrace just enough to make eye contact with me. "Maybe an hour or so, I don't really remember." I say, and let go of him, making my way to the kitchen. "Why have you been up that long? You should have come back to bed? What happened?" he questions, each one coming out quicker, and more panicked. "Darling don't worry yourself, I just woke up and couldn't do back to bed, so I came downstairs as to not awake you, you need your sleep." I say, starting to make our coffees, as Reece stands in the doorframe, slightly leaning against it. He just nods, knowing there is something more to it but not wanting to push for now, thankfully for me.

I hand him his coffee and take mine over to the dining table, sitting down and slowly drinking it. Reece places his down then leans down to kiss my head, "You want any breakfast?" he asks, and the thought of food makes me feel sick, I'm barely managing this coffee, I really hate feeling anxious. "Uhm not really, I'm not hungry right now." I say, looking up at him, giving him a half forced smile. "You sure? Do you want me to make you a lunch?" he asks, and the thought of that makes me feel sick as well. "Oh I already made one, thanks though darling." I lie and he gives me another kiss on the head, walking back upstairs to go get ready. I only finish about 1/4 of my coffee and can't bring myself to drink any more, so I take it to the side by the sink, leave it there and head upstairs to also get ready. I decide to put something simple on today, a pair of black linen trousers and a simple white shirt, grabbing one of Reece's hoodies before I head downstairs, I think I might need the comfort of it today.

"Darling, I'm all ready for work, I'm going to just go sit in the car!" I yell to Reece, wherever he is, then head out and go sit in the car, my leg instantly bouncing up and down as soon as I sit. Reece eventually emerges from the house, heading into the car, before reversing out of the driveway and starting the drive to work, noticing my leg and placing a hand on my thigh to calm me down, which works.

We pull into the car park and Reece turns to me, "Enjoy your day gorgeous, I hope it isn't too bad." he says, giving me a kiss before I get out the car, and walk to the nursery, watching as he drives off. I get into the office, and sit down, putting my head in my hands and rubbing my temples. This is going to be a long day, especially with no Agatha and Autumn here. The days off they booked off just happen to overlap once, and today was that dreaded day. It's fine, I just need to get through it.
