Never thought you’d see the day where you’d have a partner who’s a period tracker.
It’s been about eight months since your blonde and stoic boyfriend, Nanami Kento had asked you to be his girlfriend. With your relationship growing, you’ve both learned great many things about one and other. Sleeping habits, each other’s schedule, hobbies, mood changes, etc. But one thing you did learn about the blonde is how observant he is.
So much so that he had managed to learn your period schedule in less than four months. He had claimed that he got the jist of it around the third month in of your relationship. Reason being he learned so fast is because he hated to see how much you were going through before and during your period.
“Well, what did you learn about my period?” you asked with a appreciative smile as you watched him cut some vegetables for dinner.
“It’s basically you on your period for nearly two weeks,” he says in a factual tone.
You scrunched your eyebrows together i’m confusion. “But I only bleed for three days?” you question with a small laugh.
Nanami smiles softly as he turns his direction towards you to see that you a have a small pout on your face. He knew right away that you wanted him to explain further. “I say two weeks because of your symptoms that you get before you get your period,” he says, “You start cravings sweets like they’re going to run away from you,” he laughs.
You laugh along with him because it was true. About a week from the day you’re supposed to get it, you start craving sweets. Not like candy sweets; cake and ice cream sweets. If there are ingredients for the cake your craving you’d make it in a heartbeat. It you don’t? You either buy the ingredients or just buy the the actual cake itself. If you want ice cream and don’t have any, you go get whatever flavor you’re craving.
“Okay but knowing cravings is something that everyone learns fast. Do you know my actual period cycle?” you tease.
“28 days, if I counted right,” he said immediately without batting a damn eye.
You almost choked out of shock because you didn’t know how to check your cycle till your mom told you to download a period tracker app. “How the fuck did you learn that?!” you said in disbelief.
Kento laughs again at you being dramatic before answering, “To be honest I just counted back to when you told me you were going to miss dinner with me because your cramps were killing you,” he said.
“Then you showed up to my apartment with dinner and took care of me,” you smile as you lean up to kiss him, “Thank you for that by the way.”
“No need to thank me when I’ll always take care of you,” he smiles before kissing you again.
You pull away with a happy hum and kiss his shoulder. “What else did you learn, my love?” you asked.
“If you get cramps you have to take Tylenol right away or else they’ll get worse,” he sighs as he kisses your forehead before going back to making dinner, “You also have migraines two days before you get your period. I really hate seeing you like that, baby.”
You shrug it off because as much as the pain hurts, you’re used to it by now. “You worry to much, Ken,” you smile, “There are days when it’s even worse than that.”
“That doesn’t make me feel any less worrisome.” he sighs with a shake of his head.
“Okay, wait,” you say with a small cheer, “Do you know how my flow is?”
“Your flow?” he questions.
“Yeah! Like am is my period heavy or light?” you ask.
“Ah,” he muses, “You’re heavy the first day then gradually get lighter the next two.”
“It’s scary that you know that much,” you say to him.
“I’d rather know more than not know at all, love.”

underrated blessings while on your period
it’s like yeah, being on your period sucks. and for me, the 1-2 weeks beforehand can be even worse. but it’s like, I still have the blessing of being able to curl up in a blanket on my bed with some tea when I have cramps. I always have access to pads whenever I need them. and it’s like yeah, bc it’s a basic female necessity. it is an essential. but the thing is, I know that there are parts of the world where girls don’t even have access to pads when they have their period. something that is as necessary as food and water. imagine how bad it must feel. you’re already struggling with pms, cramps, feeling sick. you aren’t able to go to your cabinet under your bathroom sink and grab a pad. bc unfortunately, in some parts of the world, having access to pads when you have your period is a luxury.
So that is why I say, having access to pads whenever I need them, is, in fact, an underrated blessing.
I get my period. I’m able to go take a warm shower with whatever bath and body works shower gel I feel like using. I get to wear my comfiest loosest pjs. fuzzy socks if I want. I have the blessing of making hot tea in my kitchen and bringing it up to my room to sit in bed and sip on it, wrapped up in a cozy blanket. I can take Tylenol or advil if I need to. if I feel like crying, I can. these, are underrated blessings.

Due to Reasons I pretty much exclusively use period underwear/washable pads during Shark Week. I have a cute little laundry bag that I keep them in separate from our normal hamper, and I wash them separately from our clothes. I put them in the washer this morning and then left to run errands.
I got home to find all my underwear/pads that I've tried very hard to keep out of sight/out of mind since moving in with my partner carefully laid out on our drying rack in the sun on the porch.
Me: you...took care of my laundry?
B: yes? they finished while you were gone and I didn't want them to sit there wet.
Me: thank you?? you really didn't have to do that. like I do not expect that of you at all.
B: (baffled by my bafflement) but why wouldn't I?? I do the rest of our laundry, I can do that too.
So I guess I should just stop making assumptions based on prior experiences.

Now that my period is over, the thing I hate the most abt my period experience is that I am in constant nausea for the first 4 days and can not eat much. Yet, somehow, my body ends up being bloated af

I love when my period comes banging in, bleeds me dry, makes me wish to hole up in my room for 3-5 days while listening to sad music and sleeping for 7 years.
I’m on day 2? Yeah full day 2 and I have bled so much I have no blood to give. (It’s the standard amount of blood to lose during a period I’m not actively bleeding to death)
I want nothing more then to curl up against Carmy berzatto or lip Gallagher and just not move for hours.
Someone get me a sad white man played by Jeremy Allen white to cuddle.
