"Hey. Remember me?"

I woke up to my alarm blaring and got going with my day. V was still asleep so I tried to be as quiet as I possibly could when getting changed. When I woke up V wasn't on bed and I found her out in the hallway sitting on the recliner and reading the same book she was reading last night. On the kitchen counter I noticed that she had made me breakfast and coffee and laid it out neatly. I grabbed a pancake and noticed that I had about half an hour to spare.

"Good morning" I say to her smiling from ear to ear as I walk over to her. She looks up and smiles and says "morning." I lean over and kiss her before getting on the recliner with her. She closes her book and wraps an arm around my waist. "Thank you for making me breakfast my sweet" I say as I place another kiss on her cheek. "You're welcome" she says with an expression on her face that questioned why I'm even thanking her.

I lay my head on her shoulder and check my email on my phone while eating the pancakes she's made me as she continues reading her book again and a few minutes later I left to work.

Work went at snail pace today and I just wanted to go back home. I ended up working on three different fashion reports, I felt so exhausted and it wasn't even 3:30 yet! I realized halfway through the day that V hadn't texted me or checked in on me in anyway and maybe it's cause I'm exhausted or maybe it's cause I'm  irritated at the fact that it's a Monday and I've had so much work to do so far but I pull out my phone and send V a text saying -

Hey. Remember me?

And she responded a few minutes later saying:
Hi baby, sorry I was out shopping

This adds to my irritation. The fact that she's out shopping, preoccupied to the point where she couldn't even check on me  once, all while I'm slaving away at work on Monday. I choose to not respond, just cause I feel petty and I also couldn't tell if I needed attention or to be left alone.

A few minutes pass by and my phone vibrates

Babe? Where did you go??

Where did I go? I scoff and respond with

I'm here. See you at home

A part of me felt terrible after sending that and the other part of me felt expectant. I wasn't sure if I was irritated, angry, jealous or just missing V but whatever this is, it was all fueled by my exhaustion at work today.

Okay..see you at home...

I can tell she's confused and unsettled by my response and I immediately remember how she woke up early to make me breakfast and coffee this morning and I felt absolutely terrible. I respond once again

Sorry V..crazy day at work today and I'm just cranky cause I'm tired. And I felt irrationally upset that you hadn't texted or anything but that's stupid. I think I just wanted attention lol. Anyway...see you at home. Love you X

She responds in a few seconds with -

1 hour and 18 minutes more for you to be done with work. Come home soon and you'll get all the attention you need and more! I have a surprise for you, see you soon. Love you more

I smile to myself and feel instantly fueled to get through the last stretch of the work day.

I noticed a while later that Emily's been pretty quiet so I asked her if everything's alright and she admits that she and Louis have been fighting recently and it's seriously taken a toll on her.

"I don't know if this is the end of the road in our relationship..it feels like it is and my body hurts physically just imagining it." I shudder internally as I'm taken back to two nights ago when I actually thought V was ending things with me as well, the thought of losing her is unbearable and I can't imagine what Em's going through right now.

"Hey maybe we can do something tomorrow just to get your mind off it?" I offer. She looks up at me, a tear stain trailing the sides of her face and says "thanks babe, but I don't think I have the  energy right now" she says, looking the most forlorn I've ever seen her.

"Please Em, it'll be good for you and it's on me" I say. A few moments later she agrees hesitantly and about a half an hour after that I leave work and head home.

I felt way too exhausted to walk as I do usually, so I take a cab home. I walk into our flat and notice soft Parisian jazz music playing and at least 7 shopping bags neatly lined on the floor of our bedroom.

Too tired to even look through them, I lay my bags on the floor and look for V. She walks out of our bedroom, glowing, wearing her white silk pajamas, her hair loose.

She sees me and smiles excitedly and walks over to me, takes off my coat and lays it on the coffee table and then gives me a quick kiss and wraps her arms around my waist, pulling me into a hug. I collapse into her embrace, burying my face in her shoulders and wrapping my arms around her.

"Hi baby" she coos, holding me tighter and running her hand up and down my back. "Hi baby" I echo, whining into her shoulders. I slide my hands into the back pockets of her PJs only cause I barely even had the energy to hold them up.

"How was your day?" I ask her. "Pretty good, I got you some stuff I hope you like them" she says and my heart explodes with love and regret at how I snapped at her all while she was shopping for me.

I kiss her on her shoulders and then move back and kiss her softly on her lips. "Thank you" I whisper before she gently moves my head back into the position it was in. One hand on my lower back and the other on my head. She slowly starts to sway to the soft music playing in the background and I laugh and allow her to move my body to the music, secretly loving the attention as well as the good mood she's in.

A few moments later I make myself a cup of tea and join V in the living room where I make a show of sitting on the recliner before she says "what are you doing?" And then I pretend to gesture at the recliner as though it's obvious and she rolls her eyes and says "come here" and I say "I thought you'll never ask" so I lay my tea on the floor next to the couch V's sprawled across and once again collapse into her open arms, virtually laying on top of her.

She turns and kisses me on my head multiple times. "Tell me about work" she says as she rubs my back up and down. I begin to explain to her what my day was like, my voice muffled as I talk into her shoulders. I feel her listening attentively and I try to not focus on the intense comfort I'm feeling with her rubbing my back up and down. A few minutes later I stop mid sentence and say "tell me if you want me to get off you okay?" And she responds with "I want you to stay like this forever" giving me butterflies and just like that a few moments later I fall asleep on her as she turns to me and breathes me in.

Man if I could quit my job to do this all day, I would.
