I stretch lazily. Groaning when my tense muscles protest.
Last night was a work out. I managed to remember food. Only really getting Tae to take a few bites before he seemed to suddenly become exhausted.
After the shower, where he was sighing with a small smile on his face, he just crawled in our bed naked and made some more soft noises. He even said how soft our sheets felt.
So heres the thing. I want to think that his levels evened out and he was just good. He could handle this. But im a not that optimistic.
So i stare at him. My fingers brushing through his hair and he must wake up because his body goes stiff.
"You awake?" I lean in to kiss his shoulder and he sucks in a quick breath. "I bit you too hard didnt i?"
"N-no." He shakes his head quickly before springing out of bed.
"Babe?"
"I need a shower. I just.. I just need a shower." He doesnt even look at me ad he covers himself with my shirt from last night.
I nod slowly as i sit up. Hes standing there like hes waiting for permission.
"Of course Tae. If you want to shower its your shower too."
"I-I know." He bites at his lips that are still kind of swollen from last night.
"Did you want me to come with you?" I go to stand and almost jump when he all but yells no. "I can just cook you breakfast then? How does that sound?"
"Yes please." He rushes toward the door.
"Hey. Is everything alright?" His body is so tense as he looks at the floor.
"Need medicine." He mumbles. "Hurts." His lip trembles.
"Go shower babe. I will bring you meds in to you. Alright?" He nods and it seems like he deflates a little when he makes it out of our room.
My mind is reeling as i get some boxers on and put on sweatpants before getting his meds together and put them in a small cup. I leave them on the sink and as im slipping out of the bathroom i hear him cursing at himself.
"Stupid idea. Stupid stupid idea. Youre an idiot!" His fist hits the tiles over and over.
"Baby?"
"Im fine. Im.. Im fine." He turns away from me and starts pouring shampoo into his palm.
I nod even though he cant see me and leave him alone. He seems to want that.
Its confusing really. Last night he couldnt seem to stop touching me. Begging me to touch him. He seemed to be wound so tight when he finally came it was like everything just went lacks in an instant. The relief on his face made me happy. He looked happy. So what happened!?
His phone dings on the coffee table and i sigh going to inform whoever it is hes in the shower. But rage fills my body so fast i have to remember its not my phone to smash to pieces.
