Joes POV
It's fourth period and Dianne, Caspar, Ambar and I are sat in English. I can't deal with this boring shit anymore! I watch Dianne fiddle in her bag until she pulls out some random looking blue thing, I watch her raise her hand and as she does so she winces. Miss Atkin went over to see her and after a little whisper Dianne left the room, a few minutes later she comes back without the blue thing, I look to her and mouth
"You okay pet?"
"Yeah, I'll tell you at lunch" she replies before sitting down and we both got on with our work. I really hope she's okay.Dianne's POV
"Right class dismissed, Joe, Dianne can I just have a quick word?" Miss Atkin stooped us as we left with Caspar and Ambar.
"Sure Miss" we replied
"We'll wait out here mate" Caspar called closing the classroom door.
"Everything okay miss?" Dianne asked
"Yes I just would like to ask you if you would please not talk during my lesson, I know you must've been concerned for her Joe but please do not talk, it disturbs me and the rest of the class"
"Yes Miss" I replied
"Sorry miss, won't happen again" Dianne reassured.
We left the classroom in high spirits and caught up with Ambar and Caspar who had waited for us.
"What was all that about?" Ambar asked
"Oh talking that's all" I said
"Ah pointless then really" Caspar commented
"A bit yeah but I get where she's coming from" Dianne told us
"Yeah" we all agreed
"Dianne were you okay earlier what was that blue thing you left with?" I asked curiously
"Oh I'm fine just period shit, that was a tampon by the way" she told me
"Ah I get it, really hurts huh?" I said sympathetically
"God joe you two have no clue, it kills" Ambar saidWe got to our common room and collapsed down onto the sofas, it's not exactly a hot day but most people were in the canteen it's only us four in the common room. Caspar sprawled himself over one of the couches and Ambar sat on his legs, Joe sat on the right of the other sofa so I took the left, I felt him edge closer to me.
"So who you going to the dance with mate" Caspar asked Joe
"Well Dianne and I have actually decided to go together, just on a friends basis but" Joe stopped and looked at me, I gave him the "go on" look.
"But we've said we'll see how it goes and maybe, maybe go on from there" he said, emphasizing the maybe.Joes POV
I notice Dianne suddenly getting uncomfortable, she stood up and left without saying anything. I guess she's just having a hard time with her period. She comes back in moments later in tears
"It's just so bloody heavy" she sobs
I stand straight up and take her into my arms, i tuck a few strands of red hair behind her ear and hold her close. I sat her down with me and carried on cuddling her. Caspar and Ambar can assume all they want I just want to be there for my "girlfriend" she does look pretty stressed about it.
"You okay?" I whispered softly in her ear.
"Mhm" she hummed sweetly
"Good" I said holding her tighter she tucked her head into my neck.
Caspar and Ambar made "awh" faces at me and I scowled back at them.
The bell rang signaling the end of lunch and Dianne went with Ambar to their Textiles lesson and Caspar and I went to Food Tech. The classrooms were right next to each other and they have a door with a glass panel between them so I could check on Dianne. I knew she was struggling today, she has her odd days she told me and she said that she would be quiet tonight which is understandable. I got in the classroom and put my apron on, washed my hands and got my fruit out to make our fruit salads and looked over at the glass in the door. I spotted Dianne sat in the corner of the room her teacher Miss Jerrett was sat with her as was Ambar she looked up and spotted me looking at her through the glass, she gave a small weak smile before turning back to Ambar.
"Joe, get on with your work" Miss Causley shouted from the front of the room. I got out a knife and rolled my eyes, she's such a bitch, I'm just checking on my girlfriend! But of course she doesn't know that but she's still a bitch.
We finished class and Caspar and I waited for the girls' class to be finished. Dianne walked out her eyes red-stained and puffy like she had been crying. She ran straight into my arms.
"Your okay" I reassured her, she just sobbed into my neck and shoulder. She then pulled away slightly and I took her left hand, her right clutched over her stomach I took her handbag from her shoulder and slung it over mine, I didn't care whether people laughed I just wanted to help Dianne.Dianne's POV
Joes being so so sweet he's being so supportive and helpful I don't know what I'd do without him. We got to his house and all collapsed on the sofa while Joe got us drinks
"Di what would you like?" He called from the kitchen
"A cuppa tea if you've got one please" I called back
"Okay" he replied
I heard the flick of the kettle being turned on and he came into the lounge with Caspar and Ambars drinks and left again and then a few minutes later he came back in with half a pack of chocolate digestives, my tea, a hot water bottle and one of his hoodies.
"Awh you didn't have to go to that much trouble Joe!" I said as he handed me my tea.
"Oh it's no problem" he replied winking at me
"Thank you" I smiled back taking his hoodie and putting it on.
Caspar and Ambar left at about 4:30 and I was staying cuddled up to Joe for an hour longer. We lay on the sofa watching Brooklyn nine-nine and he looked down at me, I moved my head up to face him and he kissed my nose.
"How you feeling sweetheart" he asked
"I'm alright now thanks" I replied holding his hand while laying infront of him on the sofa my head back against his chest. Just then the front door clicked and Joes mum Tracey walked in.
"Evening you two" she said assuming I was there but unable to see me as she was in the hallway.
"Hi mum" joe replied
"Hi Trace" I said after him
She came into the lounge and looked down at us sprawled out over the sofa, me looking a bit worse for wear not gonna lie.
"awh Dianne sweetie you okay?" She asked kneeling down beside our heads.
"Yeah I'm fine, bloody period" I said rolling my eyes
"Awh hun 'sit getting to ya?" She said rubbing the back of my hand that was clutching my stomach.
"Yeah, it's really starting to bother me" I replied
"I know it's horrible sweetie, If you don't feel like leaving Joe I can call your mum and explain everything and you can stay here tonight if you like" Tracey suggested
"I'd like that very much, thank you" I replied
"No problem hun, I remember when I was your age I never wanted to leave my boyfriends arms" she told me causing me to giggle and joe to gently hit her playfully
"Mummmmm!" He whined
"What! I'm just saying!" She laughed walking out the room.
"Sorry about that Di, she's so embarrassing!" Joe said in my ear
"Oh it's fine, at least she understands!" I replied
"What do you mean?" He questioned
"Well my mum has Amenorrhea which means she never gets or has had a period in her life, she's so lucky!" I told him
"Oh so when you talk to her she can't help you or understand?" He replied
"Yeh she doesn't understand" I said openly
"Awh baba" Joe said hugging me tighter
My mum dropped some pajamas, sanitary stuff and some clean uniform off for me on her way to drop Andy at his friends house and Tracey gave joe and I dinner and we went to bed, I slept in Joes bed and Joe slept on the floor.A/n
I based this chapter off of my experiences with my period I think all girls will agree it's hell....
