You and Ian are dating and live together. You’re a diagnosed bipolar, as is he. For the past few days, you’ve been going through a manic episode because you refuse to take your meds. You are going a mile a minute, cleaning, cooking, reading, talking, basically doing everything. Ian watched from a distance, concerned. You were talking and cutting up carrots when you accidentally cut your finger. You didn’t even realize it until Ian pointed it out

“Love, you cut yourself. Just slow down a minute.” He says as he gentle grabs your hand and puts a towel over the cut.
