Celestia
"Hey, wake up."
As I flutter my eyes open, I wake up and feel very wet and icky. Ramon has a calm yet concerned look on his face as he has his hand on my shoulder.
"Mm, good morning. What's wrong?"322Please respect copyright.PENANAW89qXYWdt2
"Nothing, let's just get you out of these dirty sheets first," he replies.322Please respect copyright.PENANAtmobardNKw
I furrow my brows together and look down at the sheets. I see the dried-up blood underneath me, and I scramble off the bed, nearly falling off.322Please respect copyright.PENANAYFu8NlXkf1
"Shit!"322Please respect copyright.PENANAJYQXk7NDD9
"Hey, hey! It's okay, you're fine. It's fine."322Please respect copyright.PENANAq6wlD8qTXy
"It's not fine I just bled all over your bed," I complain as I look down at myself. My period must've started in the middle of the night. I curse at myself for not even thinking of it before I came here.322Please respect copyright.PENANAs5reaU6SWM
"It's just blood, Celestia."322Please respect copyright.PENANAc2RecEdsTo
"God, that's so embarrassing."322Please respect copyright.PENANAiYmHad4zpq
"It happens, it shouldn't be. Sit and stay put, I'm gonna run you a bath and you can stay in there until I get back from the store alright?" he says as he places me back on the bed and wraps the blankets around my body.
He goes into the bathroom and turns on the water. After a few minutes, he comes out swoops me into his hands, carrying me to the tub. He places me in it and then crouches in front of me.
"Do you wear pads or tampons?"322Please respect copyright.PENANANRtfZQmUmc
"Both," I mumble.322Please respect copyright.PENANAGLmItpR7aF
"I'll bring you your phone, I want you to text me the ones you buy so I can get them. If you need anything else just call me. I'll be back." he says and he gets up, brings me my phone, and walks into his closet to put clothes on.
As I sat there in the warm water, I look at Ramon with a feeling of appreciation. Mike would've never gone out of his way to do such a thing. He always avoided this kinda thing. But Ramon, powerful but gentle Ramon, is taking care of me. I feel like he's slowly peeling away his defensive layers and showing me his true self. Before he leaves, he kisses me on the forehead and splashes a few droplets of water onto my face. I grin and splash him back playfully, grateful for the distraction. I watch him leave and I put myself deeper into the water. After a few relaxing minutes, I clean myself off and step out, wrapping a towel around myself. I take my phone and text, Ramon, what I need then sat on the toilet, afraid of getting my blood on anything else.

"How long have you been sitting there?"322Please respect copyright.PENANAlblVWaNgGw
"Awhile, I didn't want to get anything else" I replied, looking up from my phone as he walks in the bathroom with bags. Way too many for just a box of pads and a box of tampons I might add.322Please respect copyright.PENANAPYpJIgCgAc
"Which of these do you want?" he laughs as he pulls out two boxes.322Please respect copyright.PENANAPG6eAHRf4z
"Give me the pad, my first days are heavy, God I hate being a woman sometimes," I whine.
He opens up the box himself and hands me one. He then goes into another box and pulls out a matching set of sweats and a sweater in the color red.322Please respect copyright.PENANAUa0A8VmwJr
"You probably don't have anything comfortable to wear so I got you this. I also got you some Advil, snacks, and other junk food as well,"322Please respect copyright.PENANA6GkXMXXPTm
"You didn't have to do all that Ramon, I-"322Please respect copyright.PENANAXPT3ffMaK8
"I know I didn't. I just wanted to."322Please respect copyright.PENANADw1Tyc3KU0
"Thank you," I say. What I really wanted to say was that he was amazing and so caring and that I really didn't want to leave after the next two days were over. But I wasn't going to tell him that. At least not now I won't.

My stomach pain was unbearable. Nothing I ate would stay down. I heave once more and Ramon continues to hold my hair back. 322Please respect copyright.PENANAg1ERg7lYMv
"Are you sure you're fine princess? I can take you to the emergency room."322Please respect copyright.PENANAPqfKbHyF5x
"No, no. I'm fine, this always happens on the first day. I'll be fine by tonight." I mumble as I get up to wash my mouth in the sink.322Please respect copyright.PENANAz37JrpWmD0
"Pregnancy's gonna be a breeze for you." he laughs as he follows me back onto the bed.322Please respect copyright.PENANAjSDOQmsY2j
"Shut up Ramon," I reply as I bury myself under the covers. He follows suit and pulls me closer to him. His warm hand rests against my lower stomach which calms my pain.322Please respect copyright.PENANA4GMaXKmYXA
"Ramon, will you hold me till I fall asleep?"322Please respect copyright.PENANA6OqvklkyJK
"Yes, princess. I can do that."322Please respect copyright.PENANA7Sb6jY4WhW
"You know what I just thought of?"322Please respect copyright.PENANAgkGTqTHuIm
"What?"322Please respect copyright.PENANAbSrp1yOwKI
"You won't be able to fuck me the rest of this week."322Please respect copyright.PENANAC4DQRVdvaI
"You're in pain and you're worried about sex?" he laughs.322Please respect copyright.PENANApb1WuJ3XXc
"Don't laugh, you're the one losing here." I smile.322Please respect copyright.PENANAs5yCi3SMJt
"I could care less, you wanna know something?"322Please respect copyright.PENANA13eQOwaB8P
"Yeah?"322Please respect copyright.PENANAMO184fdQ9J
"The reason I kiss you on your forehead all the time? It's because I don't see you as just a good lay or a sex object Celestia. I like your spunk and your personality."322Please respect copyright.PENANAuf02RH4siL
I say nothing but I place my hands over his and squeeze. He wraps the rest of his hands around me and twists me over to face him. He takes my chin in his hands and stares at me. We stare at each other, unmoving, just listening to the beating of our hearts, and our breath going in and out. I move closer to him until our lips are millimeters away.322Please respect copyright.PENANApYphPzvQqJ
"Ramon."322Please respect copyright.PENANA1eRkYFR9Pt
"Yes, princess?"322Please respect copyright.PENANAxFVjalKxtR
"I-I don't want to leave."322Please respect copyright.PENANAg9TpED4IbJ
"You're here,"322Please respect copyright.PENANAb1C6bUtBMw
"I mean you, I don't want to leave you."322Please respect copyright.PENANAf2GBuxhrAu
"Then don't."322Please respect copyright.PENANAXad6Nyq3NJ
"But you don't do the dating thing."322Please respect copyright.PENANAEPYq94oDJy
"I will, for you," he replies and his lips finally move over mine.
To think that'd he'd do such a thing for me. All I know is that I've changed, he's changed, we've changed. And we did it together.322Please respect copyright.PENANA3C1CoZpbo8
