You woke to a familiar pain in your lower abdomen and back. Letting out a groan knowing exactly what it was that would have you bed ridden for a few days, you pushed yourself off the bed. Trudging to the bathroom you cleaned yourself up temporarily, while you let the girls know you wouldn’t be going shopping like you planned today, let alone leaving your house. Once you let them know you wouldn’t make it today you went back to the shower and prepared to let the burning hot water relax your aches.
You didn’t know how long you’d been in the shower, but you had been sitting on the shower floor for so long the water grew cold. You pulled yourself out of the shower and got yourself ready to lay in bed the rest of the day. You pulled on a pair of loose sweatpants and one of Bryce’s shirts (it somehow still smelling like him). You left your bathroom and laid in bed with a groan. You weren’t sure why the cramps were so bad this time, but they were getting the best of you. You pulled the heating pad from the drawer beside your bed and plugged it in, laying it across your stomach. Letting the warmth relax your stomach you somehow found a way to fall back asleep.
The bed dipping woke you up and caused you to look around with wide eyes. Your eyes settled on Bryce and you calmed down.
"Bryce, please don’t do that.”
“Sorry baby, didn’t mean to scare you.” He said with a smirk. You relaxed back into your pillows and closed your eyes again.
“You feeling any better?” Bryce asked sliding under your comforter and pulling you to his body. You shook your head no and nuzzled close to him.
“Not even close.” He let out a sigh and planted a kiss to your head.
“What’s wrong? Headache? Stomachache? Oh gosh...are you pregnant?” You let out a slight laugh.
“Baby,” you said placing your hands on his cheeks,” absolutely not I’m on my period. Just a few cramps, body aches, and a headache.”
You heard him sigh with relief and then chuckle.
“Sorry for overreacting. We aren’t the most careful sometimes ya know.” You laughed and nodded, but quickly changed your laughter into a groan when your body began to cramp up again. Bryce let his hands fall to your back as he massaged the sore muscles.
“Do you want anything? Heating pad, tea, medicine, anything?” He asked worriedly.
“I have a heating pad, but I don’t want to make you too hot.” you mumbled. He shook his head lifting you slightly to reposition the heating pad onto your stomach. Once he was sure the heating pad was on and correctly placed he got up.
“I’m gonna get you some pain relievers real fast.”
“Babe, you don’t hav-have to.” you finished as he raced down your stairs. You laughed to yourself as you heard an “ow fuck, shit.” Bryce hurriedly came back with some medicine and water, which you gladly took.
“Let’s just watch some movies and sleep today. How’s that sound?”
“Sounds great.” That’s exactly what the two of you did. You watched movie after movie and Bryce’s cuddles seemed to chase the cramps away.
