I had been rushed off my feet all week at work. I work at an advertising company. I have to sell the company to different accounts, and tell them why we are the best. Once we have the client, it's the follow-through.
It's finally Friday night. I arrive home to an empty house. I enjoy the quiet after the busyness of work for the past 5 days. I decided to have a bubble bath followed by hot chocolate and my fall comfort show, Gilmore Girls.
The bath feels phenomenal, and I forget where I am for a little while. I left the fragrances of honey and almond waft over me as I closed my eyes and relaxed. I eventually get out and wrap a towel around myself. I pad into our bedroom and dry myself off, followed by putting my favourite moisturising cream on. I put my cosy pyjamas on and some fluffy socks.
Going downstairs, I make myself a snack and the hot chocolate. I walk into the living room, and my cat Hudson is asleep on the couch. I approach, and he greets me.
"Hello, big lad." I say, and he meows back, and I stroke him. I turn on the TV and then put Netflix on. I select Gilmore Girls and put my Taylor Swift blanket over myself. I snuggle down with Hudson and start watching. Every now and again, Hudson will rub himself against my hand to remind me he's still here and wants a stroke.
As I am on episode 4 of the first season, the front door opens. My boyfriend is home. I hear him throw his keys onto the hallway table. I am still cuddling Hudson. I lean forward to have a sip of hot chocolate, and he walks into the living room.
"Ohhh, you are home, baby." He says and comes over to kiss me. Hudson meows his disapproval of not having my full attention anymore.
"Give me 10, and I will join you." He says, going to shower and also change into cosy pyjamas.
Coming into the living room with his own hot chocolate, he places it on the coffee table and pulls the blanket back, and snuggles up with me. I had been missing him all week. We were both so busy with work at the moment that we had barely seen each other. When I was asleep in bed, he would arrive home, and by the time he woke on a morning, I was on my way to work. So I was appreciating this. I inhaled his smell. I ran my fingers through his hair.
"I have missed you this week, Becs." He murmured, enjoying what I was doing.
" I have missed you too, babe." I answered back. Hudson came and sat on my lap. He looked at my boyfriend as if to say stroke me. So he did.
"Gilmore Girls, perfect comfort show." He said and kissed me on my neck. I smiled and continued watching it with him.A couple of hours later, we were getting hungry, so I offered to cook us some food. I stretched out and stood up, walking towards the kitchen. I made us a stir fry. We sat back on the sofa eating our noodles.
We both finished, and he got up, taking our dishes into the kitchen. He came back through with 2 more hot chocolates.
Hudson went to eat his food. My boyfriend put his arm around me and kissed me.
"I love you." He said.
"I love you too."
We snuggled under Taylor again to watch some more Gilmore Girls. I don't know how I got so lucky to have a boyfriend like the one I have. Romantic, funny, clever talented, and very sexy. Yes, there were times when he was away touring for long periods of time, but it was all worth it when he was home. We met at one of his bands' meets and greets. I have been a Fall Out Boy fan for such a long time. He spoke to me, longer than the time allocated. We exchanged numbers, and the rest is history. Patrick will always do things like this with me. I couldn't ask for a better man.
