An unwanted, yet all so familiar scent filled the room as I tossed and turned in bed, waking up, but not being able to go back to sleep. I turned to my side, not really expecting, but rather hoping that I would see my boyfriend, Rafe, but he wasn't there. I looked around the room until I saw a bare back sitting in the corner, hunched over a desk. Yesterday he talked about some paperwork he needed to do, so I'm assuming he's finishing that up.
He had a cigarette; or, as I liked to call it, a cancer in between his lips. As he inhales, moving it away for a moment, exhaling, as the smoke leaves his mouth in numerous, perfectly formed rings.
The room quickly starts to feel stuffy, as if the walls were caving in on me. I walked over to the window that was to the side of our bedroom, feeling as if I could suffocate at any given moment. I quickly opened the window, taking a long, deep breath as I bathed in the fresh air. Thinking to myself about how I will never take nature for granted anymore. I let the cold air slowly consume the room, sighing with relief as the cigarette smell already started to fade.
The winter breeze hits my exposed legs, as I just now realized I was only in my underwear and one of Rafe's old white button ups. "Morning," he mumbles, not glancing up from his paper, taking another breath of his fake air.
I start heading towards our bathroom, a cough escaping my mouth as I splash cold water in my face, hoping to help relive the throbbing pain in my upper head. But to my dismay, it only made it worse. My head starting to pound from the smoke. The throbbing sensation, now taking a hold of my entire face, as I let out a whimper, wondering to myself why he puts me through this kind of pain every morning.
I exited the bathroom, dizzily walking over to Rafe's desk, "Could you either take that elsewhere or put it out already? It's fucking hard to breathe in here!" I said rather harshly. I never meant to sound rude, but using that tone was the only efficient way to make him listen.
He takes a glance over at me for a second, shock written all over his face. But none the less he listened. He held up one hand in defense while the other put the cigarette out. "Sorry, baby," he said with a sigh, running his hands through his brown-colored hair.
I rolled my eyes at him before walking over to the window once again. I heard him getting up from his seat, feeling his toned arms wrapping around my waist not even a second later, bringing instant warmth to my body. He bent down slightly so he could nuzzle his head into my neck, causing me to cringe at the coldness of his nose. He began planting small kisses from my shoulder, all the way to the top of my neck, causing me to shrug him off. "Are you ever gonna quit?" I asked slightly hesitantly, needing to confront him about his issue but at the same time not wanting him to be mad at me.
I could see his shocked face from the reflection of the window. "Stop what?" he asked, now putting on a confused face.
I let out a tired sigh, turning around to face him, "Oh, come on, Rafe, don't be an idiot right now." I snapped at him, crossing my arms.
"babe, I have no idea what you're talking about," he calmly said, only making me more upset with him.
"Like you don't know. You always smell like cigarettes, and I'm tired of my health being ruined because of you're habits." I said, not looking him in the eyes.
"Come on, it's not that bad," he said, obviously irritated that I brought the subject up.
"It is 6 in the damn morning, Rafe, and you've already smoked enough today to make this whole fucking room suffocate me!" I scoffed, tearing up slightly.
"How many have you had today? Three, five, six, nine!" I yelled.
"I've had three, it's not that bad," he snapped, starting to walk away from me.
"Oh, it's not that bad? Well, my mistake for thinking having three cigarettes at six in the damn morning is concerning. I don't know why you're acting as if I'm some kind of idiot. I know that you always have at least two full packs on you at all times. But yeah, my fucking bad for worrying about my boyfriend." I said, following close behind him as tears started to form in my eyes, clouding up my vision.
"Okay, I fucking get it!" He yelled, slamming his hands down on a table, causing me to gasp.
"But you don't! We have had this conversation countless other times and you give me the same answer every single fucking time! You say you'll try to quit and that you would do anything for me, but it doesn't mean shit right now, and quit frankly I'm fucking terrified that it won't ever! Why can't you see how much this is affecting me?" I screamed back, my heart breaking at the sight of him tensing up as all signs of anger clears from his face.
"Listen, I get it. It's fun for now, but I can't sit back in silence anymore as I watch you slowly kill yourself. I love you way too much for that." I said, my voice breaking as tears were now fully rolling down my cheeks.
He reached his hand up, lightly wiping the tears away, "I love you too, but it's not that easy to quit, you know," he said, placing numerous kisses to the side of my head.
"I know baby, but have you even tried?"
"Yes." He mumbled, now looking down.
I rolled my eyes, "whatever then. I'm leaving until you get your problem sorted out." I said, pushing him off of me as I started to walk away, but before I could even take two steps, I feel him grabbing my wrist and pulling me towards him, into a hug.
"Please don't go, baby, I'm so sorry. I promise I'll stop. Just please don't go." He said, pressing kisses to the top of my head.
"Don't make promises you can't keep."
"I will, y/n please, just don't go. I love you so much." He said, holding onto me as if he were about to fall to his death.
I brought my hand up to his hair, slightly tugging on the roots of it, placing a small peck on his forehead. After a while, I loosened out of his grip, walking over to the jacket hook, where his cigarettes lied. "So you wouldn't care if I threw these away?" I questioned, holding up three packs of cigarettes, one almost empty but two of them not even opened yet.
He stared at me for a while, taking a deep breath, before taking the packs from my hand, quickly walking over to the restroom before emptying them into the toilet, flushing them quickly, and disregarding the packaging in the trash. Causing the biggest smile to form on my face.
"Give me one second, there's more," he said, walking over to his desk, opening the drawer up and pulling out one more pack, doing the same to that pack as he did to the last three.
He turned to face me, pulling me into another hug. "I love you so much," he said, kissing all over my face, causing me to laugh.
"I know baby." I said, jokingly, laughing at his scrunched up face.
"I can always buy more cigarettes." He said with a straight face, trying his best to hold in a laugh.
"I love you too, Rafey." I said, pushing his head down a little by his hair, forcing him to kiss me.
