Y/N's POV:

"Ugh, I had the worst day today." I fall onto the couch, my head throbbing.

"What happened, sweetie?" Shawn asks, coming into the living room. I watch as he sits in the recliner across from the couch.

"First of all, my boss came in and told me I was moving offices. Grace supposedly quit, so I was moving into her office. The new employee would take mine. Then, after I had spent my entire lunch break packing and not eating, the boss came back in and said I wasn't moving anymore.

Secondly, on the way home, I stopped off at the grocery to get some wine and I just so happened to run into Abby. Who's pregnant. So for a good fifteen minutes, all I heard about was how they're now pregnant. And she even asked about us. She was like, have you guys stopped trying or something?

Then, oh it gets better, I get back in the car with my Starbucks that I had gotten inside, and I dropped it, so now the car has strawberries and crème frappuccino everywhere. Now my head is killing me and I'm starved." I complain. After a couple of seconds of silence, I open my eyes to look over at Shawn, seeing the recliner completely empty. My mouth drops open and I laugh at the irony of the situation. I come home expecting my husband to sit and listen to me and my bad day, but instead he just leaves me.

Suddenly, the laugh-it-off mood goes away and a knot forms in the back of my throat. Tears begin to brim in my eyes. The sound of the master bath turning on reaches my ears.

"Oh, fantastic. He's taking a bath." I gasp for air, trying my absolute hardest to hold back the tears. I squeeze my eyes shut, placing my palms over them, and fall back on the couch, sheer disappointment taking over.

A couple minutes pass before I feel a familiar pair of hands slide onto my shoulders. I open my eyes and move my hands, twisting my body to see Shawn bending down. His warm lips meet my neck.

"I have a bath going for you, so why don't you go ahead and go get in the water while it's still warm. I'll be in there with an advil and some chocolate covered strawberries in a couple of minutes. Then after a little while, I'll make your favorite dinner and I'll clean your car, okay?" He whispers, his minty breath fanning my neck.

Tears well up in my eyes again, but this time for a different reason. He listened to the whole thing and now he's taking the time to fix everything that happened today.

"Okay. Thank you, Shawn. I love you so much." I choke out. He places one last gentle kiss on my neck before reaching over and taking my hands, leading me into the master bathroom.

"I'll be right back." He says, leaving the bathroom. I strip down to nothing and slide into the bubbly water, letting the bubble bath wash everything away.
