Kasey hummed, giggling more. “Yeah. You’re my goofball.”

Liam kissed her cheek again before he pulled away, "Popcorn nearly done?"

Kasey glanced back at the microwave to see that only a few seconds were left on the time. “Almost. Just a bit longer left.”

"Great. I haven't had popcorn in so long, I miss the damn thing." Liam chuckled, taking their drinks over to the coffee table.

“I know. Neither have I. It’ll be nice to have it again,” Kasey agreed. The microwave finished right after she spoke, and she quickly opened it. Carefully, she grabbed the bag and pulled it out, then grabbed a bowl to put it in.

Liam sat down on the couch, both of the cats jumping up onto the couch and curling up next to him, "You might have to kick the cats off the couch if you want to cuddle, Kasey."

“They can join us,” Kasey declared with a soft laugh as she carried the bowl of popcorn over.

"Yeah but I want to cuddle you, not my bastard of a cat." Liam grumbled.

Kasey chuckled as she set the bowl down on the coffee table. “Aw, but they love us, too,” she joked as she picked Quake up to sit down beside Liam.

Liam wrapped his arms around Kasey, "I don't care. I love you the most and I want to sit next to you, not Quake."

Kasey scooted closer to Liam, leaning against him. She set Quake down on her lap, then twisted around to smile up at her boyfriend.

“Well, it’s a good thing they’re easy to move, hm?”

Liam chuckled lightly, bumping his nose against Kasey’s, “Very good thing indeed.”

Kasey nudged her nose against Liam’s after he did it to her. She turned back around a picked up the remote, turning the tv on and finding the movie they had agreed on. Once it was on, she leaned further into her boyfriend’s embrace and started eating the popcorn.

Liam sighed contently, resting his cheek on Kasey's head with a smile. He liked this. Just being able to spend time with her and the cats without having to worry about anything.

Halfway through the movie, Kasey’s eyes began to drift shut. She blinked them open, wanting to stay awake to finish the movie. Eventually, though, her eyes just closed, and she fell into a light sleep against her boyfriend, smiling contentedly.

Liam noticed about five minutes after she fell asleep. He kissed the top of her head, slowly reaching over to pause the movie and turn it off. Carefully, he scooped her up and carried her to the bedroom.

Kasey didn’t wake as Liam carried her to the bed. When she was set down, she made a small noise in her sleep and curled up a bit on her side, but that was all. It seemed the exciting day had finally caught up to her.

Liam chuckled softly, shaking his head as he pulled the covers up around her. He sighed, walking back to the kitchen to quickly take his medication before he, too, headed to bed.

[Time skip: three weeks]

Kasey watched Liam from her place at the dining room table. She’d taken out the homework she needed to do for her classes, thinking she might be able to get some done, but instead had started to realize that her boyfriend was acting strangely.

“Liam…” she started softly, standing and beginning to make her way toward him. “Is something wrong?”
