That Wasn't So Bad

STAR'S POV:

As soon as I finished giving report to the charge nurse, I flew out of work. It's 7am and I can't wait to see Conri. I'm hoping he is up when I get home! I know he was up most of the night since it was my first night of work and I know he was worried about me. I can't wait to let him know that it wasn't so bad and I could get used to this. The shift was easier to work, the other emploees were nice to work with, the nurses were nice, and it was just all easier than working in the daytime. Now, I hope when I mention this to Conri, I hope doesn't think I am just saying this. Sometimes he feels like I don't want to be around him, but that is not true! I love being around him all the time!

I'm hoping he is okay when I inform him that this shift is way better than dayturn.

I arrived at home and when I got inside, Conri is sitting at the kitchen table with a cup of coffee and his mapped out plan incase of an attack. I snuck up behind him, put my arms around his waist and kissed the back of his neck. He jumped slightly, turned around facing me and kissed me on my lips.

"Ohhh, how I missed his lips on mine last night," I thought ot myself as we kissed. I can see it on his face that he did not get much sleep last night, so I'm not going to mention how easy my shift was just yet. I may even wait until he asks how my night went. Maybe I won't even tell him how easy it was, I just may keep that to myself. I just don't want him to think anything of it, or make a big deal about it.

No sooner than minutes of getting home, Conri and I started making out, passionately! Even thought we are both tired, we still make out! That's how much we missed each other. We are both tired, so we stopped making out and sat at the kitchen table and talked for a bit.

"Did you sleep at all last night?" I asked.
"Ahhh, not really. I slept on and off throughout the night," He replied.
"Awe, I wish you would have gotten more sleep. I was fine last night. There were other people there so no need to worry about me anymore," I said as I winked at him.
"I'm glad to hear this! I'm pretty tired and I have much to accomplish today. I think I will go upstairs and take a nap," He replied softly.
"I'm gonna head to bed too. I'm tired from working," I said.

Conri finished his cup of coffee and went up to our bedroom, and I'm still sitting at the table. I'm shocked he did not give me a kiss or a hug, that's not like him. Now I'm worried.

For now, all I can do is sit at the table and ponder about what is wrong with him. Is it because he is tired? Isit because he really does not want me working at night and he just plays it off that he does not mind? I don't know what could be wrong with him. I'm not sure how to approach him about this, he's so wrapped up in the pack life that sometimes I just let things go. I know how important his pack life is to him so that's why I sometimes don't feel it's neccessary to tell him small details. But then I feel, if I don't tell him then It will backfire on me, so I don't know what to do right now!

The only thing that I know right now is that I am tired and I must get some sleep since I work tonight. After finishing my coffee, I went up to bed. I changed into something more comfortable and laid next to Conri. He looks so damn sexy sleeping! I love my man and I hope he does not push away from me because of working nights. I'm going to keep an eye on his reactions and if I feel it is because of working night turn, then I will either quit or ask to be put back on dayturn. I will do anything for him and to keep our relationship at it's best.

While laying next to him, I turn towards him and wrap my arm around his stomach. He didn't flinch a bit, so that's when I realized he needed to get sleep. I wanted to give him a kiss on his cheek, but I did not want to wake him. I rolled onto my back, all I could do is stare up at the ceiling, I cannot fall asleep. I don't know if this is how it is going to be all the time working nights or if I just gotta get used to this new routine. I just hope it's not gonna be this way, then for sure I will never get to see my love.

The more I think about all of this, the more i become frustrated. This is ridiculous that I cannot fall asleep, even though I am dead tired. I decided to hop out of bed and head downstairs since I can't fall asleep yet.

I started reading up the downstairs. I grabbed the vacum from the closet and started to vacum the dining room floor. When I finished, I put the vacum away and grabbed the broom to sweet the kitchen floor. As I was sweeping the floor, I heard footsteps, I looked up and Conri is standing in the kitchen. I jumped a bit, I did not think he would get up yet. I asked him why he got up so soon since he had just fallen asleep, and he said, the vacum woke him up. I'm standing here with a shocked look on my face, I'm hoping he's not mad at me for waking him up.
