Chappell Roan Imagines (gxg)

she won't let go when you hug her

"Hey, baby," Chappell happily greeted you as you stepped into your shared room. "You're just in time, I was going to order some food for us."

You could tell that she was in a very good and cheerful mood today.

For a moment, you thought about swallowing the lump in your throat and trying to pretend as though your entire day hadn't been terrible from the moment you arrived at work early this morning.

But you just couldn't.

The day had been so long and so overwhelming and you know that Chappell would never expect you to force a smile just because she'd had a good day.

When you didn't reply to her, your girlfriend looked over at you and saw that your head was hung.

"Baby, what's the matter?" She asked before she walked over to you.

She placed her hand on your shoulder and her touch was so comforting that you almost broke down.

"I had a rough day, that's all."

"Do you want to talk about it? You know I'll listen." She spoke as she rubbed your shoulder.

But you looked at her and shook your head, deciding to ask instead,

"Can you please hug me?"

She cracked a little smile before you threw your arms around her.

"Darling, you know you don't even need to ask. Just throw your arms right around me whenever you want or need to, it's okay. I've got you."

You held onto her tightly and took in a deep breath before letting it out shakily.

"Don't ever let me go."

"Okay." She whispered and peppered kisses across your skin as her fingers brushed along your back and you hugged each other tight.

A couple of minutes passed by when your feet started to ache and you realized that you hadn't even taken your shoes off.

You had just walked through the door and tried to find relief in being home, though you had only felt it when Chappell hugged you.

You went to pull away only for her to tighten her grip on you slightly.

A chuckle left your lips before you shook your head.

"Baby, I need to take my shoes off."

"Do it then. I'm not stopping you. I'm only doing what you asked of me - to never let you go."

"Yeah, but I need to take my shoes off!" You laughed.

Chappell just dragged you over to the couch and gently pushed you on top of it before your laughter filled the room and brought a flutter to her heart.

"There's that smile and laugh that I adore." She whispered and brushed her fingers along your cheek. "Stay still."

She took your shoes off for you before tossing them across the room and then moving back up to wrap her arms around you again.

She kissed your face for a moment before her lips brushed against yours and your heart began to swell in your chest as you felt just how much she loved you.

"I hope you know how much you mean to me and how much I love you." You said.

"I do, baby. I know you know that I feel the same."

You nodded, a smile tugging at your lips as you looked into her eyes.

"Do you want me to let you go? Just say the word."

You shook your head before holding her a little tighter against you.

"No. Never let go."

"Okay." She replied before kissing you. "Things are going to get better, my love,"

"They already are, all because of you, Chappell,"
