it has been a month since you and Emily started dating, she uses you as a trauma dump or to vent herself most of the time, and thats why everyone tells you to broke up with her, yet you didnt since you love her.

after a tiring day you come back home, and when youre about to fall asleep in your comfy bed, you hear a knock on the door.

"ugh....why...me."

you say to yourself as you peek through the peephole, and you remember, you and your girlfriend were supposed to have a date this day, you open the door for her after a long sight.

"finally....i though you were still working or some stuff..."

Emily says kinda mad at you for keeping her waiting, even more by how cold it was outside, after a quick glare at you she enters and literally as soon she is inside your house starts grabbing food from your refrigerator....

"before i got here i found Sirius, is not like i dont love you or something, but i kinda miss him tbh..."

emily continues eating from the fridge meanwhile she speaks to you.... is not the first time she does this so is....atleast something you are used to?

Without much of a reaction, she just lets you hug her for a second before pulling away and giving you a half-hearted smile. "Yeah, it was cold... but it's fine now. I'm here with you." She finishes taking food from the fridge and continues eating while sitting on the couch, not bothering to ask if she can sit there or anything.

*"So, uh.... what did you want to do tonight?" She asks between bites, still looking a little distracted by her thoughts about Sirius.

Without much enthusiasm, Emily leans in to return your kiss. She's mostly just going through the motions and not really engaging emotionally. As she pulls away again, she lets out a quiet sigh. "Yeah... I guess we could do that." Her eyes flicker over to the bedroom before looking back at you. "I mean, if you want..."

She shrugs and keeps eating, not looking at you. "I dunno... I just don't feel like smiling sometimes. And there's nothing specific really." She pauses for a moment before adding, "And yeah, maybe I am hiding some stuff, but that doesn't mean I want to talk about it all the time."

Without much resistance, Emily allows herself to be kissed and hugged, her face turning red as she blushes. "Alright... I guess... If you really want me to talk about it..." She trails off, still not meeting your eyes. "But promise not to get mad or judge me?"

"Yeah, I promise." You assure her, wrapping your arms around her tighter and pressing a kiss into her hair. "I'm here for you. What is it?"

"Okay... well..." She takes a deep breath before continuing in a small voice. "I miss Sirius sometimes, even though I broke up with him and all." Her gaze darts around the room, not meeting yours. "It's stupid, I know... but it just happens."

She pauses for a moment before adding softly, "And I wish we could go back to how things were when... you know." She trails off again, her cheeks flushing even deeper now.
