It was your time of the month and you're not feeling it at all. You're cramping. You feel bloated. You can't eat without feeling nauseous. You called in sick to work today. Your boss understood and immediately let you use one of your sick days. Your boyfriend of about 3 months, Steve, hasn't seen you during your period due to amazingly timed missions. That is, until now.
You woke up this morning to the smell of breakfast. This usually immediately gets your attention and you go charging into the kitchen, but today, it made your nausea worse. You rushed to the bathroom and kept gagging, nothing coming up. You could hear Steve calling you from the kitchen, but you couldn't respond due to your current state.
"Y/N! Breakfast is ready!" He yelled. He repeated it about two more times, knowing you were an extremely heavy sleeper. He eventually got the message something was wrong and walked up to your room.
"Y/N, I stay the night and you're skipping breakfast on me? That's just rude." He said as he laughed. That was until he heard you attempting to throw up in the bathroom. He ran to the door and knocked immediately.
"Y/N?! Are you okay?" He asked, still knocking.
You managed to let out a defeated "mhmm" letting Him know that you'd be okay in time.
"Can I come in?" He asked, softer than before.
You didn't answer but he took it as a yes. He wanted to make sure you were okay. He walked in and immediately held your hair back, out of your face. You finally decided that you weren't going to throw up so you got up away from the toilet.
"Sorry, Steve. I don't think I can eat breakfast this morning.." you said shyly.
"It's okay. More for me. Do you know what's wrong with you? Is there anything I can do to help you feel better?" He asked, helping you lay down on your bed. He sat at your feet waiting for a response. You felt embarrassed to tell him what was actually going on, but you couldn't lie to him . Plus, you knew it was a natural thing and something you shouldn't hide.
"Well, I'm on my period.." you said, shunning your body away from his.
"Oh." He said.
You expected him to flake on you but he didn't. He just sat there.
"Is there anything I can do for you?" He asked, laying down next to you.
"No, but if you wanna snuggle I would surely appreciate it.." you said, turning to him, giving him your puppy dog eyes and a smile.
He wrapped his arm around your stomach and you winced.
"Sorry, cramps." You explained.
"Hold on, I have something for that." He said.
Steve walked over to your closet and grabbed the heating pad from the top shelf.
"How the hell did you know I had that?" You asked, smiling even more now.
"Well.. that's a long story for another day." Steve said.
He got everything situated with you and the heating pad. In fact, throughout that day, he made sure you had everything you need. It was now around 8 PM and you had work tomorrow. You haven't gotten out of bed all day, thanks to Steve. He walked back into your room with the glass of water you didn't ask for, but he told you that you needed, which you probably did.
"So, I looked up what drink helps with cramps and it says water when you're dehydrated. That's when I got to thinking that you haven't had much to drink and you might be dehydrated. So drink up." Steve said, a cheesy smile following.
You took the glass from his hand and smiled. You chugged the water down and handed him the glass back.
"Thanks for taking care of me Steve.." you said, burrowing back into your bed.
"My pleasure. I'm always willing to take care of you, Y/N. I love you. I'm always going to take care of you. No matter what your need is." He said, placing the glass on the table next to him.
You perked up immediately after he finished what he said.
"What?" He asked.
"You said you loved me."
"No I didn't."
"Yes you did."
"Y/N no."
"Y/N yes." You said, smiling.
"So what if I did?" He asked.
"I'd say I love you too."
He just smiled and ran over to you and hugged you.
"I'll be right back, Y/N. I'm gonna go get you some more water." Steve said, pointing to the door.
"Oh my god. Hurry. I wanna snuggle." You said, laughing.
That's when Steve bolted out of the door.
"Steve! You forgot something!" You said, laughing even more now.
He bolted back in the room, grabbed the glass he forgot, and raised his eyebrows. He bolted back out the door and went to go get the water.
"Oh how I love him.." you mumbled to yourself, laying back down and covering yourself up with your covers.
