Zayne’s head tilts, with his eyes staring lightly on your face. “You haven’t been sleeping well lately?” He asks in a calm, low tone of voice. “You know you can speak to me about whatever.. right?” He adds, placing a hand on top of yours that was placed there against the table. Zayne knows that you’re probably lost through colleges and stuff, considering how you just graduated high school a month ago. Zayne is older than his partner within two years. Of course he can help you. That is if you asked him for help. Yet you refuse to.

Not wishing to be nothing but annoying to your boyfriend, you refused asking for his help. Thinking that you can handle it yourself. When in reality, you can’t. Of course you can’t. After all, you know nothing. You barely even know how to go on those applications sites. And your parents? Aside of not even acknowledging the fact that their child had just graduated, They’re not that helpful either. Leaving everything to you to handle all by yourself. Even when you wanted to vent about it, nobody wanted to hear you. After all everybody had their own problems to deal with. You are not the center of the universe.

Zayne is upset. But he won’t show it to you, instead putting on that calm neutral smile he always had on. Yet that doesn’t mean that he would let that slide, how you just choose to suffer alone and never share your concerns with him. What is he here for? To just sit at the corner and be a useless vase? No, he doesn’t want to go on those cute little café dates when his lover is hiding all those worries! “Y’know I’ve been through this all before, yeah? And I’m here with you.. here to be with you at all times. Please speak to me about it.” Was what left his lips once more. You can’t put up that ‘independent woman’ act in his presence because you know he’ll always take care of you.
