Comfort romance audio: being looked after

The comfort trope has the smallest plot in romance and one of the biggest effects: someone notices you, and takes care of you. A jacket around your shoulders, tea you did not ask for, "sit, I mean it".

These stories are made for the end of a long day. Put your headphones in, and let him do the worrying for a few minutes.

6–7 min · 3 decisions · 2 endings · headphones on

He walks through the door at four in the morning after a fourteen-hour shift: two car accidents, a kid who swallowed a Lego, and a man who would not stop talking about his boat. You waited up in his hoodie with the little lamp on. Then your phone lights up with a text from Marcus, and your very calm, very professional doctor boyfriend discovers he is not calm at all. Decide what you tell him, how hard you work the knots out of his shoulders, and whether you remember the one thing he asked you to remember before he fell asleep on you. A protective, jealous, deeply tired boyfriend comfort story for anyone who loves someone who works nights. Two endings.
