"I have to be good to someone if I won't take care of myself," Melissa commented in a joking tone, glancing over to him. "But seriously, I love you too. I want you to be okay…"
"I have to be good to someone if I won't take care of myself," Melissa commented in a joking tone, glancing over to him. "But seriously, I love you too. I want you to be okay…"
"Mmm… and I want you to be okay too, Mel." Lucas sighed again. "You gotta take care of yourself too."
"But I'm fine right now. You're the one who needs taken care of right now." Melissa hummed softly, kissing his forehead. "I'm fine."
"Don't lie, Mel… to me or to yourself…" Lucas held Melissa a bit tighter. "I wanna be able to help you too."
Melissa looked up at him with a weak sigh. "But I am okay, right now at least." She insisted, voice soft as she spoke to him.
"Mel, please…" Lucas pulled Melissa closer, obviously not convinced. "You can't neglect yourself for my sake."
"But I'm not neglecting myself right now. I'm perfectly happy right now, and just want to take care of you. I don't really want to think about all the problems I have to deal with anyway." Melissa insisted, resting her head on his shoulder.
"Are you sure?" Lucas asked softly. "I thought you still needed help with stuff, Mel… I don't wanna just ignore your problems."
"I'm sure for now. I know that I'm not going to be okay later, but right now I'm fine." Melissa was confident in what she was saying, starting to gently run her fingers through his hair. "I promise you."
"Mel…" Lucas sighed shakily and kept his face hidden. "You shouldn't repress stuff so you'll feel it later instead. That must make it worse…"
"I'm fine, Lu." Melissa insisted, sighing softly. "You don't need to worry about me, I'm fine. Right now, I'm fine."
"But you aren't going to be fine if you don't take care of yourself, Mel." Lucas looked away.
Melissa let out a weak sigh, burying her face in his shoulder. “I’ll deal with me later. I told you, I’m fine right now. There’s no point in worrying about it right now.”
"Mel, please…" Lucas sighed shakily. "This kinda thing isn't good for you. I know firsthand."
(Sorry I was out like all day-)
“But I’m trying to take care of you right now. I’ll be fine, I can deal with my problems later. You’re stressed out and need attention right now.” Melissa finally snapped a bit, glancing up at him. “I promise, I will be fine.”
(Np ^^)
Lucas flinched a bit at Melissa's tone and cowered. "B-But I… Mel, I…" He stammered nervously. "I wanna help you too so you don't end up like me…"
“Lu,” Melissa stated in a more tender tone, trying to stay relaxed. “I can take care of myself right now, when you’re in a more… stable state, we can deal with me. I’m okay right now. And I’m going to be just fine.”
"I'm sorry, Mel…" Lucas buried his face in Melissa's shoulder again, mentally kicking himself for being so stupid and annoying. "I'm just being more of a problem by getting myself more worked up, huh?"
"Please, don't be sorry. I know you're worried about me, I just… I don't want you to be. You've already got enough on your mind." Melissa mumbled, still trying to keep her tone relaxed. "You're not a problem for caring, I just- again, don't want you to worry."
Lucas sighed softly, quivering a bit in Melissa's arms. "I'm still sorry, though… you know I love you, right?"
Melissa rested her chin on top of his head, nodding just a little. "I do… and I love you too. I know you just want to take care of me."
Lucas nodded a bit as well and sighed. "I really do, Mel… I just want you to be happy and healthy and… and safe…"
Melissa smiled weakly, rubbing his shoulders some. "I know honey… and I want the same for you. I want to be able to help you,"
"Mm…" Lucas yawned, relaxing a bit in Melissa's arms. "Sorry for getting so worked up, though…"
"It's okay… I love you bunches." Melissa whispered, kissing his forehead gently. "You're wonderful… and I'm sorry I snapped at you. I- I know you're just trying to help."
"I love you too, Mel… and it's okay. I'm sure you were getting frustrated with me pushing it further…"
"But I shouldn't be getting frustrated when all you want to do is help me." Melissa insisted, resting her head on his shoulder.
Lucas shrugged a bit. "I-I dunno… I was probably being unreasonable. I do that sometimes."
"I mean- yeah, sometimes. But like… it's not a big deal." Melissa whispered, kissing his forehead.
Lucas sighed softly. "I feel like I'm really annoying and clingy sometimes…" He mumbled. "Don't you get sick of me?"
