Shiro's Pov

I sat on top of a table waiting for Casey. She hadn't come to the guild yet and it was already 9:30 a.m.

Kagura-san and Rogue-san opened the guild doors, I got up to approach them... but no sign of Casey.

"Where is she?" I ask.

Kagura-san laughed, "Oh... she was still asleep. We didn't want to wake her up."

"Wait, she overslept..? How many weeks has it been..?" I thought out loud.

"What..?" My dad asked.

My communication lacrima rang.

INCOMING CALL

Casey 🐉🖤
—————————

I picked up, "Is it-"

"PICK ME UPPPP," she interrupted.

"Casey honey... are you okay..?" Kagura-san asked.

"Being a girl is so hardddd," she whined.

"I'll be there in a bit Cas-" I reassured her.

"HURRY UP," she said in a voice that could easily be confused with Satan's.

She hung up and I instantly ran to the Cheney's house. It only took a few moments since I could travel at the speed of light. I neared the porch and rang the doorbell, she instantly opened the door and pounced on me. Like the expert I was, I was ready and carried her like a toddler all the way back to the guild.

I opened the guild doors and everyone gave me a confused look. Oh wait... even though we've been here for a few months, this is the first time I actually carried her inside.

"Did you eat yet?" I ask.

"No," she bluntly said. I sat her down on the bar stool and waited for Minerva-san.

"Oh ho ho? What can I get for my favorite ship?" She asked.

"Hi Minerva-san! Three chocolate chip pancakes with a bowl of strawberries and a cup of shadows please," I say. She nodded and left, I was about to talk to Casey again... but I got pulled aside by mine and her parents.

"Okay, what's going on? Did you get her pregnant? OH MY GOD I SWEAR TO-" My dad demanded.

"WHAT THE HELL- NO. She's on her period!" I say in a hushed tone.

A silence fell for a few seconds. "So you were carrying her because of a cramp?" My mom asked.

I smiled and nodded. "How long have you been doing that?" Rogue-san asked.

I think for a moment and smile, "The past five years."

Kagura-san smiled and hugged me. "Oh my god you're an angel. Marry my daughter. Now," she praised.

Everyone sweat dropped. "SHIROOOOO," I heard an all too familiar voice whine.

"Oh gosh, that's my cue."

I walked over to the bar and saw Casey happily smiling as she ate, I took the stool next to her and smiled.

"Do you need more pads?" I whispered.

She looked up at me and reluctantly nodded. "Also some candy too... Can we stop by the store? Maybe? I'm really sorry I just-" she rambled.

I interrupted her with a laugh, "Hey, let's take the day off. Your call on what to do."

Her smile widened and she nodded. "Let's go to the store. We can go to the park afterwards and get some ice cream," she suggested.

"Sure, why not?"

—A week later—

Jolie's Pov

F—K. OH MY ZEREF SCREWING MAVISSSSS.

I hate periods, screw this. Thank god for my broom because this cramp would have me limping if I had to walk. I got to the guild and made my way over to Celeste.

"You too?" I ask.

"We have it on the same week Jojo," she reluctantly said.

She stood up— only to sit back down. "GOD F—KING DAMNIT," she yelled. The guild went silent and looked our way. "Oh... oops," she said as she sweat dropped.

Kōri made his way over and helped Celeste get up. "Are you okay? I mean, not like I care or anything," He asked, worried about his soon to be girlfriend.

Celeste laughed, "Yeah, just some girl problems."

I pulled out a spell book so I could memorize some enchantments, Celeste and Kōri were talking about something. Though, I couldn't tell... all I heard was the word 'Darren' and 'Crush'.

I won't lie, it did hurt a little. Then again, I kicked his a*s during the grand magic games. And trust me. I'd f—king do it again.

...But then again, It would screw up his adorable face and ridiculously hot bod— NO. PERIOD HORMONES. I COULD KILL HIM IF I WANTED TO.

.

Yeah.... f—k Darren... one way or ano- PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER.

I take a deep breath before returning to my book.

"꧁If the user casts the spell whilst wearing an item a loved one gave them; it gives the loved one a boost in power. Once-"

WHO THE F—K SLAMMED THEIR MOTHER F—KING FISTS ON THE MOTHER F—KING TABLE.

Since I was off guard, the slam startled me and I shrieked and jumped, causing me to fall out of my chair.

I quickly got up- bad idea. That s—t came crashing down like a waterfall, I managed to sit back down before I leaked.

I look up to see who it was; Darren.

"You scared the living s—t out of me," I said.

"Is that a good thing?" He asked, a smirk tugging at his lips.

I rolled my eyes, "I'm on my period right now and I don't feel like dealing with your s—t."

His eyes widened and he sighed in relief. "Oh thank Mavis you're not pregnant," he said in a hushed tone.

"B—H WHAT?" Celeste yelled.

Crap... she's a dragon slayer.

I CANNOT SAY THIS ENOUGH. NORMALIZE PERIODS. AND SCREW TOXIC MASCULINITY.

Boys shouldn't have to hide their emotions because they're "men". We're all human and we all have emotions, deal with it.

Telling someone to not cry because of their gender is absolute bull. You're allowed to be sad, mad, happy, or scared. You're allowed to be yourself, why? Because you're human.

And PLEASE don't tell a girl "Is it that time of month?" when they get pissed at something they don't like. ALSO, if you see a girl leaked, don't go; "HAHA YOU'RE ON YOUR PERIOD."

Yes. They are. And it's natural. Please just quietly let them know that they did and don't make a whole scene about it. If you do decide to be a dumbass and draw some attention towards you two, don't be surprised if they slap you. They have every right to feel embarrassed and angry. Because they're human.

We're all human and we all have emotions.
