You lift your head from cutting up some vegetables and see Jenna walking in. She removes her jacket and puts it up, giving you a weak smile.

You put the knife down, walking towards her. As soon as her tired eyes meet your concerned ones, she starts tearing up.

"Aw, baby... come here" You open your arms, and she hugs you, putting her face in the crook of your neck. You hold her tightly, rubbing her back soothingly as you feel your neck become wet from her tears.

You gently lead her to the couch, sitting with her as she sniffles. She lifts her head from your neck, closes her eyes and takes a deep breath to calm down.

You reach over to the coffee table, grab some tissues, and hand them to her. She mumbles a thank you and wipes her face, blowing her nose while you gently rub her back.

You don't try to rush her as she starts to calm down. You're ready to sit with her silently or listen as she rants about anything that bothers her. Your heart shatters at seeing her this upset.

You rest a hand on her thigh, squeezing gently. She takes your hand, caressing it softly as she starts to speak.

"I'm sorry, baby. I just had an awful day at work, and I've been bottling it up all day," she explains, sniffling again.

You shake your head softly, kissing her temple. "Don't ever say sorry about that, my love. How about I run you a hot bath and we go to your favourite place for dinner?"

You automatically feel relieved as you see her beautiful smile again. She looks back to the kitchen before responding, "But you're in the middle of making dinner, and I don't want to be a burd-"

You cut her off with a quick kiss, cupping her face. "Don't you dare finish that sentence. Now give me a few minutes to prepare your bath, and I'll finish making dinner. We can have it tomorrow, but let me take you out tonight."

She nods, and you peck her lips before you head into the bathroom. You hum to yourself as you get the water running, putting in her favourite bath bomb. You walk to your bedroom and pick out some comfortable clothes for Jenna.

You set everything up and turn the water off. Jenna goes to the bathroom and closes the door as you return to the kitchen.

You decide to surprise her with a candlelit dinner instead of taking her out, not wanting to drag her into town after the long day she's had.

You grab a clean tablecloth from the cupboard and put it over the table. You place down the plates and cutlery and put some candles in the middle of the table.

Your turn the stove to a lower setting, keeping the food hot for when Jenna finishes her bath.

You grab a bottle of her favourite wine and pour it into two wine glasses as you return to the bathroom.

You carry the two glasses in your hand and knock on the door. You hear her hum in response.

You ask her if you can come in, and she agrees. You open the bathroom door, flashing her a smile.

"Hey baby, everything alright?" she asks. You hand her one of the glasses and close the door, sitting on the floor beside the bathtub.

"Yeah, my love, everything is fine. Thought I'd keep you company in here," you respond, sipping your wine.

You both talk and laugh for a bit before the bathwater gets cold. You hand Jenna her clothes while she dries off. You notice some bruises on her arms, with more prominent ones starting to appear on her legs.

She finishes getting dressed as she sees your worried look. "I had a hard time with the stunts today. I couldn't get them done right, and I refused to have the stunt doubles do it. I was being stupid and trying to prove myself."

You shake your head, wrapping your arms around her and kissing her shoulder softly. "Come on, my love, let's go and eat."

She heads out of the bathroom first, gasping softly at the candlelit dinner you had prepared.

"I thought you'd prefer to stay in and just relax, but we can still go out if you want," you tell her.

She smiles at you, kissing you softly. "No, baby, it's perfect. Thank you"

She sits at the table as you put the meal on your plates. You light the candles and sit opposite her.

You enjoy your meal, continuing your earlier conversation. You can tell she's now completely relaxed, and you're so glad.

You take out your phone, connecting to the bluetooth speaker as you play I Guess I'm in Love by Clinton Kane.

You get up and hold your hand to her; she chuckles at your grin and takes your hand. You hold her waist gently as she wraps her arms around your neck.

You slowly dance to the song as you look at her lovingly. You start kissing across her face, and she giggles, making your heart swell.

As the song ends, she caresses your cheek, looking up at you. "Thank you for tonight, darling; I mean it. You're incredible, and I'm so lucky to be able to call you mine. Whether I'm having an awful or amazing day, I know you'll have me smiling by the end of it."

You kiss her neck softly, hugging her close to you. You know she makes any day of yours a thousand times better, and you're happy to do the same for her.
