A drabble request for Druig <3 if that´s still possible!
Angst: “Do you realize how hard it actually is to love you? Do you? Because you make it nearly impossible and I’m done fighting for us when all you do is pull away.”
Thank you!
this one was a little hard because i didn't want to make it too angsty. so there is a little bit of a twist at the end
“You can’t even call?” You shouted at Druig. He stared at you from across the kitchen, lips twisting to the side of his face. He shrugged his shoulders, shooting you an irritated look. This was the fourth night this week he stayed late at work. He had been staying later and later everyday, more late nights every week.
“I had work.” Druig rolled his eyes, turning to walk away.
“Don’t fucking leave. You always fucking do this!” Druig paused, his face turning into one of frustration as he looked at you. The more nights he stayed at work, the more your mood changed. Whenever you brought it up Druig would brush it off, going about the rest of his day.
A rift had started to form between the two of you. The more time you spent alone the more time you questioned your relationship with him. If you were going to be alone most of the time, why not be alone all of the time. You balled your fists, nails digging into your palms as you stared at him.
“Do you realize how hard it actually is to love you? Do you?” Druig’s face changed, shock settling over his features. He hadn’t expected that, he never thought you would say anything so harsh. “Because you make it nearly impossible and I’m done fighting for us when all you do is pull away.”
Tears pricked at your eyes as you confessed to him. It had been weeks of built up emotions, tonight being the last straw. Druig moved towards you, pulling you into his chest as your sobs started. You wanted to push him away, but he felt so comfortable. You gathered his shirt in your fists, pulling him slightly closer to you.
Druig petted at your hair, wondering why he ever let this happen. He had been staying late at work, having picked up new clients after the company merger. He was offered the option for overtime and he took it in a heartbeat, wanting to save up some money.
“Hey, hey, it’s okay babe.”
“No, it’s not!” You let out in a sob.
“I’ve been working overtime to save some money.” Druig pulled you back, whipping your tears away from your face. “Here, let’s go sit down, love.” Druig lead you over to the couch, sitting down with you. Druig rubbed your back while your breathing evened out.
“Why? We haven’t been having any financial issues.” Druig got up, walking over to his jacket and pulling something out of his pocket. He made his way back, sitting next to you again. He placed a small black box onto the coffee table.
“That. That’s why.” Druig said in a defeated tone, gesturing towards the small box.
“Yeah.” He gestured towards the box again, wanting you to grab it. The small black box was cool in your hands, anxiety setting in while you opened it. A small band with a tiny diamond was placed inside. Tears pricked at your eyes again, this time for a different emotion causing them. “I didn’t want to tell you, for obvious reasons I hope.”
“Dru, I’m sorry. I jumped to conclusions and I.. I’m sorry.” His blue eyes were gentle while you apologized.
