You had been too overworked and stressed from everything lately, even the smallest things got you feeling frazzled and overwhelmed
Everything and everyone around just seemed to add more fuel to your constant state of tension and anxiety, your head felt like it burst at the seams, though you always kept your smile for your servants as you didn’t want to worry them
You couldn’t even tell Arthur how miserable you really felt.
Especially not him. It would’ve taken forever to explain your feelings and he was the last person you felt like bothering with your problems.
But even though you didn’t tell him, he’d notice it.
The lackluster way you picked your food, even though he had cooked you your favourite meal, the absent-minded smile that never reached your eyes, the way your lower lip quivered when he pulled you in his arms that evening - he notices it.
He knew you were putting up a brave front for everyone, but you couldn’t fool him, so the moment he notices you’re not being yourself, visibly crumbling in front of his eyes, he starts worrying for you
So when you’re finally alone in your room he’s going to make you a warm cup of tea, sit right next to you on your bed and pull you against his chest, safe and warm
He won’t push you to tell him immediately, but he will wait for you to tell him what’s been troubling you so he can try and solve it for you.
He’ll stay close to you, even if you tell him that it’s nothing, he’s not going to believe you, softly coaxing you to tell him what’s been bothering you, after all you never left his side as well when he was struggling to move on.
‘You don’t have to pretend to be strong my love. Even though i love your smiling face more it’s ok for you to be frustrated at times’
He’ll let you cry against his shoulder, gently rubbing your back in small circles until you’re calm again
and even if you’re still a little upset, you’ll feel much better in his strong arms, feeling his love and adoration for you, before he runs you a warm steamy bath
leaning you against his bare chest as he locks you in his arms, safe and protected, he nuzzles his face into the crook of your neck, breathing in your scent and warmth as he hummingly whispers against your skin,
‘You feel so tense, let me help you relax’
a content sigh escapes your lips, when he presses a soft kiss to your ears, your stiffened shoulders finally relaxing and you slowly turn your head, his lips enveloping yours in a sweet, coaxing kiss that melts away all your worries.
