Autumn

Summary:

Rivers Cuomo finds out you age regress and cuddles you

Notes:

Dam i treat these notes like my damn diary.. but it is what is it. Im sorrh if my writing is not perfect, im half asleep, and stressed out.. Ive been age regressing a lot lately because of the stress being isolated from my family/and my friends just not fucking talking to me for some reason?? Its scary and i cant control it. And nobody is there to comfort me. I could be overreacting, brain damage heightens my emotion. I am already sensitive so this just makes me more insufferable. Side note, I had just met one of the most prettiest boys ive ever seen in my life.. Hes young, probably 1-3 years older than me. So basically, the local restaurant (the soul of my small town) my mom works at threw a big event.. and i was there.. it is prettyy late at might, but im dancing to the music. Suddenly, someone joins in. Its him. I didnt catch his name. He has a heavy spanish accent and it is hard to hear him over the music. But we danced together. And i genuinely felt like i was in a cheesy romance movie.. and he kissed my cheek…. Im sure he meant it as a friendly gesture.. but holy shit.. I dont remember much but he just.. left? Im so fucking sad. And hate my life, but lowkey not that suicidal anymore. I just feel, numb. And a little sad sometimes.

Fall of 1995~
(Yes i know this isnt entirely accurate shh. Also sorry it is so short. Im half asleep.)

You are Rivers’ roommate, in a small house in Cambridge. It is currently autumn, and the weather has been affecting your mood lately.

“Fuck..” You woke up, feeling groggy. Rivers had probably already left for classes. But you didnt think about that right now, getting up and going into the kitchen.

You put a glass of milk in the microwave, heating it up for 45 seconds. This is a habit you’ve had since childhood, simply because you dont like cold milk in the morning.

As you took a sip, you began to feel a little emotional, and like a small child again. You remember being so little, that you had to push a stool to get to the microwave, and would crawl up onto the counters for a glass from the cupboards.

You walked back to your room, taking small sips of the milk and feeling small again. As you opened your drawer, you pulled out your pacifier.

You felt yourself regressing again.. putting it in your mouth. You’ve been doing this for a while now, as a comfort thing. But you kept it a secret expect from those you trust.

 

Not even Rivers knew. But its okay, because he was in classes right now, right?

Until you heard a shuffle, and your slightly ajar door, being fully opened by Rivers. “Hey, good morning. I dont have classes today-“

 

Rivers froze, and you froze. Oh god. He found out, and you look so.. weird like this. After a few moments of awkward silence.. “Its okay.” Rivers muttered.

You stayed silent, watching him step in. He sits on the edge of the bed, looking at you patiently. “Do you need anything?” He adds on.

You stayed silent for a while. “Uhm.. cuddles..” You spoke in a child-like, soft voice. Your voice slightly muffled by the paci in your mouth.

Rivers sighs, hesitant. But he lies down next to you, holding you close. “Its gonna be okay, baby.” He gently strokes your hair.

You yawned, savoring his warmth. You didnt expect him to give in easily. But he did. He smiles as you close your eyes and nestle closely to him. Eventually falling asleep.
