"Melanie?"

Bea’s POV

It’s Christmas Day and Josh has finally gotten out of the shower.

Yes. We slept together last night, but it was nice and it felt normal.

My boyfriend, Josh, had left his wet towel on the floor. I was getting ready for the morning, and as I brushed my teeth, I heard him call out "Hey sexy"

I knew he meant it in the best way, but I chose to ignore him because I was embarrassed about my morning breath.

"Josh, where’s my toothbrush,"

I also shouted out for him to come in and take his towel off the floor. He responded with a "Jeez" and then tried to come in for a hug. I quickly pushed him away, and said "Sorry, I suck at being a girlfriend". His response was the one that made my heart swell. He said "No, you just suck at understanding how much I love you".

In that moment, he picked me up bridal style and said "This is how you should always be treated". I felt so incredibly loved and appreciated.
