As the day went on, it quickly became more apparent that today would not be your best. From the moment you woke up, you’d been completely overstimulated.

The label on your skirt scratched across your skin with each movement, the low hum of electricity around the room was becoming more than just white noise, and Andrew was being especially clingy.

Usually you didn’t tend to mind when your lover was affectionate. But being smothered whilst you were already going through a sensory overload? That was just adding more fuel to the fire.

Though, Andrew hadn’t recognized that until you’d completely fell through into a meltdown, refusing to suppress your emotions any longer.

“Woah, hey, it’s okay.” Andrew started, carefully removing his hands from your skin, leaving them hovering as he tried to determine if physical touch was the best thing for you right now.

“I’m sorry, baby. I didn’t know you were having a hard day. What do you need, my love? Give yourself a second to breathe.”
