You had been taught that periods were disgusting and that you should never even mention them to a man.

But Jason was different; the first time he noticed that you were suffering from cramps, he just bought you a hot pack, some ibuprofen and spoiled you like it was simply a matter of course.

He never once seemed even slightly disgusted by periods, and you were having a hard time acknowledging the fact that maybe what you had been taught wasn't so true after all.
