The past week had been fairly brutal, both for Nate and Felicia, although in completely different ways. Felicia's was more based on physical strain, because she'd been doing so much practicing non stop, on top of all her regular classes that were drawing closer and closer to finals. In his case, it was mostly based on pure exhaustion. He'd been getting up around five every morning for school, spending the greater part of his day in class, and then heading straight off to work every single evening as opposed to his usual couple of week day shifts because one of his coworkers had broken a leg and apparently he was the only one in the store that could be depended on to take over his hours. Probably because, although he'd been working there for several months now, he was still the new kid, but it'd been made pretty clear to him that refusing the extra hours wasn't an option. At the end of the day, he figured it'd help with bills and rent, but it definitely wasn't doing his sleeping pattern much good. By the time he'd been getting home, Felicia was often in bed, and honestly, he could do without not being able to spend some proper time with his fiancee every day, especially since he knew her own days weren't all that easy either.
Thankfully enough, his boss had told him the day before he'd have someone else take over the extra shift the following week, and then go on a rotation from that point on until their coworker came back. And luckily for him, he had had Sunday off this week, and wasn't needed to cover someone else's shift, and as such, he planned on doing his best to make up for the crappy week he and Felicia had just been through. He had every intention of turning his attention to his fiancee and making sure today would be a good day for her, but he'd admittedly decided on starting the day off a bit selfishly, by putting a bit more focus on catching up on the sleep he'd been missing all through the week and sleeping in until a time that was only just slightly reasonable. Hopefully, Felicia wouldn't mind his staying in bed a bit later than usual, and once that was taken care of, he'd make sure to spend some quality time with her, and also catch up on everything he hadn't been doing around the apartment for the past week. Knowing he hadn't exactly been the best fiance around, although it'd been out of his control, and wanting to make up for that.
