Emergency

A/N: When Marjoreece first got together
——————————

"Reece?" She tugs his sleeve, getting his attention.
"You okay?"
"I need to go home."
"Gorgeous, I told you, we have to stay. You're the manager, and I'm the co-owner. We have to stay for the staff party," he explains. She knows that, but she had an emergency to deal with.
"I need to go. Now," she says, her voice dead serious, her face desperate for him to notice and realise it was an emergency.
"Marjorie. I can't leave. I told you this."
"Fine. I'm going then. I have to get home now," she says, turning around and walking out the bar.

"Marjorie! What are you doing?" He calls after her, rubbing to catch up.
"I told you I have to go Reece," she says through gritted teeth. Reece hadn't seen this side of her before. Yes they hadn't been dating long, but still, this was new.
"I said we can't, we have to be here. It'll cause questions and problems with the staff."
"I don't care Reece Knight. I need to go home now, and if you would use your dumbass brain you would realise why and come with me. But clearly it's not clicked yet, so when it does, come and find me, otherwise stay and have fun," she says, her voice cold and angry, completely opposite to its usual tone.
She pauses, but when she gets no response, she shakes her head, sighs, kisses his cheek and then gets into her car, pulling out the car park. She couldn't leave without saying goodbye of course.

Reece stood there, completely shocked as he watched his girlfriend leave.
"Reecey? Party's not here dickhead," Mia's teasing voice came from behind him, making him roll his eyes.
"I know that smart ass."
"And you're out here because....?" She asks confused.
"Marjorie. Somethings not right with her. She was cold, but kept saying she had an emergency, and she needed to go home."
"Awh bless. As much as I don't like the women, getting your period at a staff party is very unfortunate," Mia says, almost showing some emotion and feeling for Marjorie.
"Period? What? She told you?"
"No dickhead. But an emergency? One requiring her to go home immediately? And she isn't like herself? Oh come on Reecey. How dumb are you?" Mia explains, and Reece feels his heart sink. He was so rude to her, trying to make her stay.
"Fuck."
"Indeed. You better go and apologise and be good to her."
"Mia we came here together. I don't have my car here," Reece panics.
"Calm down. God. I'll drive you, keep your hair on."
"Thank you, okay let's go."

Mia drives Reece back to his, but every time she glances over to him, he is sat there panic fiddling with his hands, picking at his nails.
"Reecey, stop it. Marj will be okay, she's a big girl."
"I know. I can't believe I tried to make her stay, I'm such a shit boyfriend."
"No you're not. You're human, and a man. Don't beat yourself up about this, learn from it and move on. Now go and find Marj," Mia says, and by the time she finishes talking, they are already at his house.
"Thanks Mi. I'll talk to you later."

Reece climbs out the car, heading to the front door. He unlocks it, and makes his way inside, his heart breaking at the sound he hears. Muffled sobbing, coming from upstairs.
"Marjorie?" He calls out, slowly making his way up there. He gets no response, worrying him.
He pushes open the bedroom door, seeing Marjorie curled up in a ball, crying, holding her stomach. "Marj?"
"No. Go away," she sobs, only crying more as she gets the words out.
"Baby talk to me."
"Why are you here?" She cries.
"Because I love you and I care for you. I realised what happened, and I'm so sorry for not realising sooner. How can I help you now?"
"It hurts. It's cramping so bad," she cries, which makes Reece realise why she's holding her stomach tightly.
"Oh my sweet girl, I'm so sorry. How about I go and get some pain relief, a hot water bottle and then we can cuddle in bed? Would that help?" He questions, and gets a nod in response. "Okay, I'll be back very quickly, I promise."

Reece runs down towards the kitchen, stopping off at their cupboard in the hall to grab the hot water bottle, continuing to the kitchen.
He flicks the kettle on, and whilst wishing for that to boil he grabs the pain relief and a bottle of water.
Once the water boils, he pours it into the hot water bottle, letting it fill up before he screws the lid on, and carries it all upstairs.

He returns to Marjorie, who is still curled up in the foetal position, but she isn't crying as much.
"I'm back gorgeous, and I come bearing gifts," he says, showing her what he has, making her giggle slightly.
He watches as she uncurls herself, but one hand still stays around her stomach. Marjorie grabs the pain relief and water from him, swallowing the pills. He hands her the hot water bottle, which she places over her stomach, closing her yes and taking in the heat from it.
"Better?" She nods.

"Reece?" She looks up at him.
"You okay?"
"Can I have those cuddles you promised me?" She asks.
"Of course you can my sweet girl, come on then," he smiles at her, climbing into the bed next to her.
She snuggles up close to him, letting her head rest on his chest, her eyes fluttering closed. She attempts to keep them open, but they feel so heavy.

"It's okay baby, close them. Get some much needed sleep," he whispers.
"You sure?"
"Yes I am, I'll still be here when you wake up."
"Promise?"
"I promise." He kisses her lips quickly, and she slowly drifts off to sleep, knowing Reece will stick to his promise, that she's safe with him by her side.

Two so very close to each other. You guys are lucky. This idea actually came to me in an exam and I knew I had to write it up.
This one was a bit shorter, but that's because of two reasons. One, my recovering hand injury. And two, I have had a not so great day and spent a lot of it crying over the fact I leave my school in two days after my last two exams, which is a bittersweet feeling and I'm trying to figure out how to actually feel about it, other than having just a lot of feelings all at once. So whilst I have the motivation to write, I am also wary I am in quite a bit of pain and quite emotion, hence the shorter chapter.
Anyways, after that absolutely useless and random waffle, I shall see you in the next one. I love you all, look after yourselves.
