Why Me?

Summary:

ford takes care of reader who is down in the dumps.

Notes:

hey, I’ve sorta crawled out of my depression hole and managed to write this. I don’t know how long it will be, but I’m trying, because I feel bad for not writing for a couple of months.

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Work Text:

Ford knows that you haven’t been yourself recently. You had been staying in your bed more than usual, not caring for your personal hygiene, or your health. He knows that you want to get up and make it through the day, but you just can’t seem to.. and that’s alright. He’d promise that he would be by your side no matter what. No matter what you were going through, if something happened, etc.

And right now, he needed to be by your side, for you.

It was currently 2 pm. Ford lightly knocked at your guys shared bedroom door with his knuckles, only getting a slight grunt as a reply. He turned the doorknob, pushing the door open while walking into the room, then gently shutting it behind him so it wouldn’t make a big ruckus.

”How are you feeling, dear?..” He murmured the question, sitting himself near you on the bed. He heard your whispered response of ‘feel like shit’ and he shuffled his back to rest against the headboard, tapping at your shoulder a few times.

You brought your head out of the pillow it was stuffed in, wondering what he wanted. He knew that you could be aggravated at points so he was especially more careful of what he said and did. Ford motioned to his chest, which you offered him a small smile for the first time in awhile and shuffled your head to rest there.

After a few minutes of him holding you close, rubbing your back, placing kisses to your head, he heard you quietly say something. “Why me?”

Ford took a minute to respond. “What do you mean dear? …Oh..I get what you mean. There might not be an exact reason, dear. It’s normal to have down moments in your lifetime. I’ll be here for you through all of them..like how you’ll be there for me.”

You let out a small exhale before replying. “…Thank you..and of course I’ll be there for you if you need it.”

“That’s very good to know, darling. I love you very much, remember, you’re not a burden if you ever think that. Don’t ever think that. I love you, for being you.”

“I love you too.”

Notes:

I didn’t know how to end it. I also just kinda free-for-all this. Not proof read.

is it silly for me to ask for some reassuring comments? yeah. would I appreciate them? yes, a lot.
