2:34 AM
You had barely gotten an ounce of sleep tonight. Your mind was running wild, with all the thoughts going through it.
You and Chris have just made it past 8 months of your relationship. You both couldn't be happier with the other. So, when Chris asked you to move in with him, it wasn't much of a surprise. You spent so much time at his house anyway, it was already as if you lived there.
This was your first night, officially moved into his house. After you and Chris went to bed, you found it hard to sleep. No matter how much you twisted and turned, you couldn't drift off.
So, that's what led you to be sitting in his - your- living room. A cup of coffee in one and your white robe wrapped around you. You sat in silence.
You didn't know what was causing you to overthink so much. Even with you not being so much as in the spotlight as Chris, he always reassured you, that you were it for him. But, you couldn't help but think. Why would he want someone as plain and normal as you, when he could have any extravagant model or actress. You had your everyday 9-5 job, regular friends, a regular family. There wasn't much to you.
Would he leave you for someone more exciting? Someone that would not even think twice, about doing something reckless and fun for a change? You liked the quiet, simple life. You didn't like being out in the open, where everyone can see you. You tried to change, you tried going out more with him. You tried doing some of the things he likes. But, you feel as if it wasn't enough. That you ignored him and his interests for so long, that he just wouldn't care how hard you tried.
You were so deep in thought, that you didn't hear the floorboards creak. Indicating, someone was coming.
"Are you still awake?"
You snapped your head in the direction of the voice. Instantly, recognizing it as Chris. He came to check on you a few hours ago and said he would wait for you in bed. He must have fallen asleep.
"Yeah, I couldn't sleep." You admitted. You turned your head away from him and continued to stare at the same blank wall you've been staring at for the past 2 hours. You noticed Chris come up and sit beside you on the couch. He wrapped his arm around your shoulders and brought you closer to him. You rested your head on his chest, bringing your legs up into his lap. You let out a deep sigh.
"What's bothering you, babe? You've been so moody lately. Tell me what's up."
You took a second to think to yourself before answering. "Why are you with me?"
Chris was a bit taken aback by your question. But, before be could answer, you continued. "We're different in so many ways and I feel as if, I am holding you back from doing things you like."
"You're not holding me back from anything, y/n. I love being with you, even if we don't do much." Chris insisted, but you still were not satisfied with his answer.
"But, Chris, I want to do more with you. When we go to parties, I'm just sitting back watching you have fun with other people, even with the girls. And, it always looks like you would rather be with them, then me. I just want you to know, that I'm trying. I don't want you to be stuck inside all day because of me." You started to tear up at the end of your rant.
Chris wrapped his other arm around you, hugging you closer to him. "Baby, I promise I don't mind sitting at home with you. I mean, somedays I like to go out and have fun, but it's not the same if you're not there. I'm yours, okay? I don't care about what other girls have to offer. I only want you. No one else."
You wiped the tears from your eyes and looked up at him. "You mean it?"
"I'll always mean it." He planted a small kiss on your forehead. "Now, come on let's go to bed. We have a big day tomorrow." Chris said, standing up from the couch, with you in his arms.
"We don't have anything planned tomorrow." You pointed out.
