It was a typical day off around our house. We both were doing our own things. I had been cleaning up the kitchen, I assumed she was in our room watching TV shows as she usually did. After I filled the dishwasher I began to walk towards the bathroom. As soon as I opened the door to the bathroom, I found her curled up on the tile floor of the bathroom.

"Hi." She said awkwardly, looking up at me from the floor.

"Are you okay?" I asked.

"My insides have turned against me." She said, gripping her stomach.

"Ahh." I nodded, knowing that was her code for that it was her time of the month.

I sat down beside her, rubbing her stomach. "You'll be okay."

"I'm dying," She moaned.

I stifled a giggle feeling sympathetic for her. "If you get up, I'll get you a hot water bottle, and we can snuggle in bed."

"That requires getting up."

"I can bring chocolate."

"Okay, you won me over."

I kissed her on the check getting up. "Take your time moving," I told her.

I filled up the kettle and turned the stove on, finding the hot water bottle as I waited for the water to heat up. When I found the hot water bottle and filled it finding some chocolate. I carried all of the stuff to our room, she was curled up on the bed, opening her eyes as I entered the room.

"Hey." I smiled.

"Chocolate." She made grabby hands at the bag of chocolate chips in my hand. I handed them over to her. "Thanks." She said, already taking handfuls of chocolate chips out of the bag.

I jumped on the bed beside her, kissing her shoulder.

"You feeling okay."

"Either then feeling like there's a monster tarring my insides out. Yeah, I'm fine." I must have given her a sad look for she said. "Hey, it's always the worst the first day for me, we both know that."

"Yeah." I nodded.

I rubbed her stomach slowly, placing gentle kisses on the exposed skin.

"I just want snuggles." She said.

"Okay." I wrapped her up in my arms as she held the hot water bottle against her stomach.

"You can keep rubbing my stomach."

I smiled at her "Of course." I said, going right back to rubbing her stomach with giving her a kiss on the cheek.

She just relaxed into my arms, groaning a bit against the pain inside of her. She closed her eyes slowly between my gentle massages and light kisses.
