Code Red

Veronica walked into her apartment and sighed as she closed the door. The elevator was broken so she had been forced to walk all the way up the 20 flights of stairs. And it was only made worse when her 67 year old neighbor Mrs. Rudolph had passed her muttering something about 'kids these days.'

Veronica had half a mind to push her down the stairs with as much force as possible, but she settled for giving her the middle finger behind her back.

"That you babe?" She heard JD call from their room. Veronica grunted in reply as she laid down on the couch face first, not bothering to kick her shoes off.

Soon JD emerged from their room wearing his pajamas. Knowing him he had probably been on his laptop all morning playing some first person shooting game.

JD walked over to her and sat by her head. "Babe?" He asked. Veronica grunted again. "You okay?"

Veronica lifted her head up. "Code red." She said simply, before she put her head back in the pillow. She felt his weight disappear from the couch as he got up to put on his shoes and jacket.

"Okay so I'll be back with all the things you need but you just stay there and keep looking beautiful as always." He said to her placing a kiss on her forehead and leaving the room.

Veronica sat up and walked into the kitchen for something to eat. Periods made her extra hungry. And also angry. Hangry.

Veronica giggled at her new word and took out a cup with a butterfly design.

"What the fuck? I have to take the stairs?" She heard JD shout from the hallway. This made her giggle again. Pouring water in the cup, she leaned on the counter and sipped the drink.

Veronica thought of how lucky she was to have such a great boyfriend like JD. I mean he was a few steps from being insane but he was sweet. He cared for her and gave her everything she wanted in life.

She pulled out her phone from her back pocket as she got a phone call. The caller ID read JD. She answered it.

Phone conversation:

V: Hello?
J: Okay I'm here at the store and there are tons of fucking tampons and pads and cups- cups? They act like you're going to be drinking this fucking shit the fuck?
V: JD.
J: Okay anyways I need to know if you need pads, tampons, or *laughter* or cups because on this list the only thing you wrote down that could be related to any of this is "bloodsuckers."
V: Just get tampons.
J: What the fuck are those?
V: They go inside you.
J: Like a dick? I mean that would explain why these things look like tiny white baby penises. Oka- hey you lady! Keep walking nothing to see here! My girlfriend needs me!
V: Babe don't harass the poor lady.
J: Don't worry it was a six year old.
V: *laughter* Okay so get the tampons and everything else on the list.
J: Hey babe do you plan on doing any backflips any time soon?
V: No why?
J: Because there are tampons here for sports and they have a picture of a girl doing a backflip.
V: *hangs up*

Veronica set her phone down and took another sip of her water shaking her head with a smile on her face.

She walked over to the couch and took a seat to wait for JD. She turned on the television and started to watch Rugrats.

--------------------

Veronica looked up from the television as JD opened the door and walked inside with bags on his arms.

She got up and helped him place the bags on the couch. "What's all this? The only things on the list were tampons, chocolate, and the first four seasons of Family Guy." JD smiled at her as he sat on the couch.

"Well... I was going to stick to the list, but then I saw all this stuff that made me think of you and so one thing led to another and now..." JD gestured to the bags in front of him. "This."

Veronica sat down, the bags in between her and JD. "Well thank you."

"You haven't even seen what's in the bags yet."

"I know. I just want to thank you for being the best boyfriend a girl a could ask for." She kissed him with a smile on her face.

"Okay so first, I did get you chocolate." He pulled the chocolate out of the bag and handed it to her. She dug into it immediately. "Fuck this is good. Hershey knows what he's doing!"

Then JD pulled out a teddy bear with a heart in it's hand. The heart said 'I Love You Beary Much! xo'

Veronica smiled as she pressed it to her chest. "This is heaven. Chocolate in one hand, teddy bear in the other!"

By the time JD had pulled everything out, Veronica had every season of Family Guy, red velvet cupcakes, some perfume, and the very important tampons.

And the best boyfriend ever.
