I Do My Research...On Periods

Jack's POV:
I'm running around the house like a mad man trying to get pillows and blankets, snacks, the hot water bottle and the heating pad as I don't know which she prefers because Kirsty was on her period. I wasn't going to be like the others who purposely avoid their girlfriends in times like this, I was going to stand by her and do everything to make her feel comfortable. She was curled up on the sofa with cramps, she was in a lot of pain.

"Jack, I'm fine. I just need some ibuprofen then I can get on with the day." She told me, I didn't believe her.

"Baby, let me take care of you. You need a duvet day to just do nothing, I've done my research and your hormones are making you a lot more tired than usual." I said, recalling my knowledge that I found out.

"You did research?" Kirsty giggled at me.

"Yeah, I wanted to make sure I got my facts right in case I do something wrong." I explained kinda shyly, was I not meant to research periods?

"Aww Babe, that's so sweet of you." She cooed, sitting up and kissing me on the cheek. She was making me blush.

"However, it was a bit unnecessary. You don't need to know all the science behind it to take care of me properly, I just want love, cuddles and food." She told me, I did wonder why I took it upon myself to learn how FSH, LH, Oestrogen and Progesterone affected the menstrual cycle.

"Oh, okay. What do you want to eat?" I asked her.

"I want chocolate!" She whined, but cutely as she pushed her lips out into the most adorable pout.

"Alright, do you want anything else?" I asked her.

"A cup of tea would be nice and some sort of painkiller, I don't mind either ibuprofen or paracetamol. Oh, and I want my Baby. Where's Voguey?" She requested, looking around for the puppy.

"She was on our bed the last time I checked, I'll go get her for you." I said before kissing Kirsty's forehead, I went to our bedroom and saw Vogue just sat on Kirsty's desk chair looking out the window.

"Little Sausage, do you want cuddles?" I cooed, Vogue instantly turned her attention towards me and jumped off the chair. She ran around my legs until I picked her up.

"Mummy wants to snuggle with you, come on." I said taking her to the living room, I put her on the floor and as soon as she saw Kirsty she jumped up on the sofa and licked her face. Showering her with love and kisses.

"Hi Puppy, aww thank you." Kirsty cooed from her puppy's kisses. I smiled at our little family before turning back towards the bathroom, I looked around the inside of the medicine cabinet and found a box of ibuprofen and paracetamol. Which would work best, this is probably the thing I should have done research on instead of the hormones. I decided just to take them both, she could take paracetamol between doses of ibuprofen should she need to. I went to the kitchen and started to boil the kettle to make tea for Kirsty, I squatted down towards the bottom cupboards to hunt for chocolate. I know I had a huge bar of Galaxy chocolate hiding somewhere, maybe Kirsty would let me share with her, even on her period no single human being could eat this huge chocolate bar on their own in one sitting without being dreadfully sick, right? I should look that up...or maybe just let Kirsty eat it on her own. I'm pretty sure we had a dairy milk hanging about somewhere that I could nibble on. I poured the water into a mug with a tea bag, added a small splash of milk before a quick stir. Isn't it satisfying to watch the liquid spin for a minute like a whirlpool after you take the spoon out? I think it is anyway. I took the pills and the tea over to the living room, Kirsty had Vogue sat on her stomach.

"It hurts!" Kirsty whimpered, I didn't know what cramps feel like but it seems to tire you out.

"Is Voguey actually helping?" I asked her.

"She's warming up my tummy, but that's about it. She isn't exactly a heater." She said.

"Well, after you take some medicine I can get you a hot water bottle or a heating pad. I don't know which one you'd prefer." I offered.

"I'll have a hot water bottle please." She replied politely, I put the cup of tea on the coffee table and passed her both boxes containing painkillers.

"I didn't know which one was your go to, so I just got them both." I said, I felt like a tit to be honest. I should know these things about Kirsty, I felt like such a terrible boyfriend.

"Aww thanks...Jack, are you alright?" Kirsty asked, sitting up and rubbing my arms.

"Am I letting you down?" I asked, Kirsty pulled me down onto the sofa hugged me tightly. I buried my face into her neck, breathing in the smell of her perfume.

"Why would you ever think that, Jackie? You're not letting me down at all, you're trying your best and making the effort and actually making me feel less crap. You may not know the exact details of what I like but they will all come with time, trust me I won't let you hear the end of it." Kirsty said as she rubbed my back. I managed to giggle for a minute, I took in all she had to say.

"Please, just tell me what you want to make my life a lot more easier!" I pleaded.

"Life doesn't get easier." Kirsty replied, I laughed and leaned back against the cushions. Kirsty took out two ibuprofen tablets and swallowed them down with her tea.

"Do you want to share this chocolate with me?" Kirsty offered.

"Really Squish?" I asked, like an excited puppy when food is mentioned in any sentence.

"Sure, but don't expect this every month." She laughed breaking off a tiny piece, it was more than enough for me and she needed it the most.

I actually managed to learn about Kirsty's period essentials, every month I bought her favourite pads and chocolate. I made her hot water bottles when she had bad cramps and gave her all the cuddles she deserved in the world for being the strongest, caring women in my life. Periods are dicks.
