Chapter Text
Today has been awful. Nothing has been going right, no one has been listening to you, everything you try to do has been going wrong. You leave work early. It's too much to handle, it's overwhelming and loud and warm. You need to go home. You're on the train back home right now. It's so loud you feel like your head is gonna split open. There's a baby crying , someone on their phone talking loudly , the train car is moving so bumpily.
It hurts.
Everything hurts so much you just want to get home.
You get home and go straight to bed and sleep for a couple of hours.
You wake for a minute and hear someone calling you but you're too tired to pick up and just let it ring then go back to sleep.
You wake up with your boyfriend lightly shaking you awake.
“Why are you home so early...you said you had work until 9 pm, it's only 5.” he sounds concerned. You sit up and see that he's sitting next to you in bed.
“Why aren't you at work either...you usually work until the night...” you sound very annoyed because you had just woken up
“A food critic is gonna be reviewing ryoshu’s bistro so the shops closed up right now to get prepped for ‘em and i already prepped everything i needed to so there's no need for me to be there”
He starts to take off his prosthetic and he gets up to put it away.
“Are you feeling alright? You look a bit pale and sick...do you want me to make you some food or do you wanna sleep some more?” he stands next to the bed and pets you on the head a bit
“Can we cuddle for a bit and can you stay with me till I fall asleep please..” he rub your head against his hand petting you
“Yeah sure” he kisses the top of your head “do you wanna get changed? You're still wearing your work uniform”
“Yeah I would...” you roll out of bed on the other side where he isn't standing and go over to your dresser. You get changed into a big t-shirt and different underwear and you get back into bed. Gregor takes off his shirt and pants and is just in his boxers now.
He sits down in bed with his back against the wall.
“Do you wanna talk about what happened today?” he scratches your head a bit. You rub your face against his thigh a bit. His leg hair rubbing against your face feels nice
“No, not really...” you put your hand under him so your hand is on his ass. “Can I lay on top of you?”
He pulls you up so you're laying on his stomach.
You rub your face against it and sniff it. You sink into it a bit but it's very hard underneath. It's very comfortable.
He smells like sweat and blood and cigarettes. It's nice.
While you do that he pets your head. He's breathing kind of heavily. His stomach going up and down feels nice.
“Is it alright with you if I smoke?” he scratches your head a bit.
You mumble “mhm” with your face still buried in his stomach.
He reaches over the the bed side table and grabs his cigarettes and lighter. He puts them on top of your head for a second because he only has one arm at the moment.
He grabs a cigarette, puts it in his mouth , grabs his lighter then lights it. He grabs the stuff from your head and puts it back on the nightstand. He keeps the cigarette in his mouth for a second, puts you down and starts smoking.
It's nice and comfy. His breathing a lot more heavily now that he's smoking but it feels nice.
He ashes the cigarette off on an ashtray that's next to the bed.
You rub your face against his stomach more. His stomach starts growling a bit. He chuckles a bit and pets you and starts talking with his cigarette in his mouth. “I'll eat after you fall asleep” he laughs a little bit more. it's kinda hard to understand him because of his cigarette being in his mouth and you are slowly starting to fall asleep. It's nice to hear him talk.
You start to breath more heavily and you close your eyes. You start drooling a bit on to his stomach and he laughs a bit at that and scratchehs your head.
“Ill wake you up ina couple of hours”
You fall asleep
