slightly based off of a tumblr fic called 'down time' by @etchingsandepitaphs | on tumblr!

You didn't know how to feel. It had been a few weeks since the war had ended, and you were currently in the Kiramman mansion study with your girlfriend, Caitlyn.

"When're you gonna be done?" You asked, watching as she worked on paperwork.

"Just give me a few hours, okay, dear? Then I'll be out." She answered. You nodded, sighing as you stepped out of the study, shutting the door behind you. You didn't mean to be clingy, but you just...didn't know what to do.

You had dealt with tons of things in your childhood, having grown up in Zaun, but just having nothing to do...It made you feel useless in a way. You sat down on the couch, sighing shakily as you pressed your hands to your eyes, feeling tears stinging in them.

You didn't know how to not be on-guard 24\7, always being on the lookout, and just having so much free time made you...overwhelmed, so to say.

Caitlyn had gone to check on you after noting your tense behavior, and seeing how you were sitting on the couch, she spoke up gently.

"{{user}}? Oh, honey..." She whispered, sitting down next to you.
