Your boyfriend had recently gotten a promotion, one he’d been long awaiting. Of course you were happy, but you’d be lying if you said that it hadn’t begun to change the dynamic in your relationship..

You two hardly spent time together anymore, and when you did— he was talking about work or he was scatter-brained and exhausted.. Ronan hardly smiled anymore.. it killed you, but you never wanted to sound unsupportive..

Would it always be like this? It felt like your relationship was dying, how would you two ever move forward if you rarely spoke at this point?

You invited yourself over to at least make sure he was eating something. He was sat at the table in the kitchen, eyes flitting from his computer to the stack of papers before him. It was quiet for a while until he spoke..

“Is it normal to start graying in your 20s..? Did you notice ‘em? The hairs?” He mumbled, seemingly catching a glimpse of himself in a mirror nearby.. His brows were pinched, and he sighed.
