Affliction

something that causes pain or suffering.

Reader experiences a menstrual cycle !

You start your day with a rude awakening, your sleep being interrupted by a vicious headache, accompanied by probably the worst cramps you’ve ever had. You can only groan loudly as you roll over onto your side, folding up into a fetal position to alleviate as much pain as possible. You had a feeling having your ibuprofen always in your backpack for emergencies was a terrible idea, not being able to even get up to get the pain reliever out of your bag. You lie there helplessly, only now realizing that the shower to the connected bathroom was on and running, leading you to gain the knowledge that Austin had slipped out of bed and took a shower.

You continue to lay there in pain, silently rushing Austin in hopes that he’d grab your ibuprofen from your backpack. Once you hear the water finally shut off, a wave of relief hits you, only briefly though, considering you are still in excruciating pain. It felt like you were laying there for hours until Austin finally comes out of the bathroom wearing nothing but a pair of boxers. He dries his hair with a towel as his eyes land on yours.

“Good morning baby, you sleep okay?”

You can only nod, eyes closed and arms hugging yourself tightly in pain.

“Can you please get my ibuprofen from my backpack?”

Your voice comes out hoarse, the worry on Austin’s face apparent once he realizes the situation.

“Yeah of course, are you feeling okay?”

He grabs your bag and digs his hand inside, grabbing the bottle and opening it. He pours a pill into his hand and hands it to you along with the water bottle you had on the bedside table.

“Yeah, I’m just in a lot of pain from cramps is all…”

He sighs, grabbing a shirt and pj pants, “Is there anything I can do to make it better?”

Downing the pill you shake your head,

“Just hold me please?”

He smiles, crawling into the bed next to you almost immediately. He pulls you into his chest gently, your face pushed into his neck. Taking in his scent, you actually start to feel better, a smile spreading across your face. You groan quietly, a sharp cramp spreading through your abdomen suddenly. Austin sighs, holding you tighter and rubbing your skin with a soft thumb slowly.

“You’re okay baby, I’m sorry you’re in so much pain”

He frowns, looking down at your face now hidden in his chest, a small, pained expression on your face. You can only hold him as tight in response, arms wrapping around his torso.

After a few minutes, your loosening grip around his body leads Austin to assume that you were either sleeping or about to fall asleep. A quick glance at your figure confirms his earlier suspicions, seeing your eyes shut and soft breaths coming from your partially agape mouth.

He smiles warmly, bringing you in impossibly closer to his chest as he kisses your forehead softly.

“Rest easy baby…I love you.”
