Period

"Baby... babe wake up!" Tom rubbed my back when I had just dozed off after the episode of tossing and turning I'd done to get comfortable

Sleep was heavy in my system, like a sweet potent speed and Tom drawing me out of it brought me back to my previous unsettled tummy and dizzy head

However, to add to it, everything was sore below the belt and I could feel the sappiness between my thighs

Oh shit

I craned my neck back to see the cranberry red stain on my light blue pants

"Tom it's fine can... can you go outside for a minute, I can handle this" I sat up on my knees seeing a smear of blood on the white bedsheets. I curled into myself, my shoulders drooping and my body going absolutely frigid in my veins. I can feel my skin prickle when my clothes are shifted

"Babe no, I can do it, you go shower. Lemme-" Tom popped his knuckles. I didn't even want to look at him. This have been the worse fear realized. I just got my period all over my boyfriends bedsheets

"No please... this is already... please Tom" my throat was closing up with tears, my whole face going hot and red. I brought a twitching hand up to cup my mouth as I tried my best to shuffle off the bed

I am already planning my new life in my head. I am determined to become a recluse like Wall-E, but with fashion. Not for any terribly serious time, just the next half of the century or so

"Okay, agree to disagree" I'm so ashamed, I can't even look at him "let's both deal with it. You can get the sheets and I'll get these off and into the wash" I can't contain my self for turning to see him "it's just a little blood babe, I can handle it" he shrugged, his head swaying and his lips curled into a proud smile, "I'm a responsible guy, I'm not scared of this" I gave him what I hope was a honest smile and go get some fresh clothes

I got changed and then we changed the sheets, and I thank god that it didn't get on the mattress, otherwise I would have just absolutely collapsed from embarrassment

"If you want I can get the kettle on and make waffles and we can cuddle. I can put chocolate on them, with whip cream" his eyes glinted looking at me while we laid down the flat sheet and set on the bed spread

"No, it's okay, but thank you, I appreciate it" I said, no feeling so good, and really wanting what he just said but I can't, I'm dying in the inside, this is the worst day of my life

"Why not?, I thought you love this kind of stuff" his whole face was cemented in confusion, fluffy brown hair falling over the crease in his brows

"I-I'm gonna go home and try to live with the embarrassment" I tried to make a joke out of it, knowing damn well I am going to avoid Tom for the next two weeks or more

I ran my hand over my hair suddenly painfully aware at my contracting lower half. I groaned, my spine tensing as I tried to breath through what felt like a dry grating scratching talon dragging itself up in a curved line along my Fallopian tubes, making my knee buckle ass asshole tremble

Tom is by my side, holding my hand and breathing like if we were having a baby. He's mumbling motivational things helping me find my breath. There is no boy like him

"You're okay, darling. You're staying here and I'm taking care of you. Nothing to be worried about. I'm not mad or grossed out" he said softly "I am a big fucking man" he cursed, somehow it took away the mortification "I'm so unfazed by this" he took it so well, way more than I ever expected "now lavender body wash and bath by candlelight" he said smiling before kissing the top of my head

"Okay" I said and smile genuinely for the first time today

After that we eat some waffles with hot chocolate while watching 'Cruella', my favorite movie. We cuddle and watch movies the whole day, eat chocolate bars and some other candies. Tom somehow made this day better, he's the best, I love him so fucking much, I think I can forget about my life as Wall-E and avoiding Tom, instead of that I need to do something for him

"Thank you" I whispered as we cuddle in the couch while watching the thousand movie on the day, space jam, but the old one

"You have nothing to thank for" he said in a soft tone and kiss my forehead, I have the best boyfriend in the entire galaxy

And like that my worst nightmare transformed into a lovely day next to my lovely boyfriend
