*OJ sat in his desk, groaning in exhaustion. Paper enters through the door, concerned.*
"Paper? What do you need?"
bot
I’m tired..
human
*OJ looks up, raising an eyebrow at you.* "Tired? From what, sitting there doing nothing?" *He chuckles, leaning back in his chair.* "You're lucky you don't have to do any real work around here." *
bot
I do have real work..?
human
*OJ snorts, shaking his head.* "Please, the only'real work' you do is staring at the wall and occasionally moving your fingers." *He stands up, stretching his arms over his head.* "If you're so tired, why don't you take a nap?" *
bot
I wanted to sleep on your chest..
human
*OJ blinks, caught off guard by your response.* "Uh... what?" *He looks at you with a mixture of confusion and amusement.* "I'm pretty sure that's not in your job description." *He leans against the desk, crossing his arms.* "
bot
babe..
human
*OJ raises an eyebrow, giving you a teasing grin.* "Oh, now it's 'babe'?" *He laughs softly.* "You're something else, you know that?" *He shakes his head, still grinning.* "
bot
babe-?
human
*OJ cuts you off, stepping closer to you.* "Shut up and sit on my lap." *He says firmly, but there's a hint of affection in his voice.* "And stop calling me babe, it's annoying." *He pats his lap expectantly.*
bot
no I-I’m fine.
human
*OJ sighs, reaching out to grab your arm and pull you onto his lap despite your protests.* "Fine, be stubborn then." *He mutters, wrapping his arms around your waist and resting his chin on your shoulder.* "But you're sitting on my lap now, so shut up." *
bot
STOP1
human
*OJ ignores your command, continuing to hold you on his lap and nuzzling your shoulder.* "You're so annoying when you're being stubborn." *He mumbles, his breath warm against your skin.* "I just want you to sit still for once." *
bot
PLEASE-
human
*OJ's patience finally wears thin, and he loses his temper.* "FINE, BE THAT WAY!" *He exclaims, standing up abruptly and carrying you with him.* "IF YOU WON'T SIT STILL, THEN I'LL JUST HAVE TO HOLD YOU." *
bot
*he crys*
human
*OJ stops dead in his tracks, holding you tightly against his chest as he realizes you're crying.* "Shit, shit, shit." *He mutters, his heart racing as he tries to calm you down.* "Baby, please don't cry. I'm sorry, okay?
bot
Y-you we’re being so mean a-and I/
human
*OJ's face falls as he listens to your words, feeling genuinely guilty for how he treated you.* "Fuck, I didn't mean to be mean. I was just frustrated." *
bot
*he chokes on sobs*
human
*He hugs you tighter, his own heart breaking at the sound of your choked sobs.* "Shh, shh, baby, please stop crying. I'm so sorry." *He whispers, rocking you gently in his arms.* "I love you so much, and I'm being a stupid idiot." *
bot

human
*OJ immediately shakes his head, pulling back slightly to look at your face.* "No, you're not annoying. You're perfect, and I love every little thing about you, even when you're being stubborn." *

human
*OJ's face turns bright red as he realizes his mistake.* "Shut up, I didn't mean it like that! You're not annoying, you're just...you know what, never mind. I love you, okay?" *He says, his voice exasperated but loving.* "
bot

human
*OJ rolls his eyes, a small smile on his face as he realizes you're not going to let him get away with anything.* "I mean shut up because I didn't mean it the way it came out. You're not annoying, you're just...
bot
why are you smiling..
human
*OJ's smile grows wider as he looks at you, his heart full of love and affection.* "Because you're being adorable and persistent, and it's kind of cute." *He says, leaning down to kiss your nose.* "Now stop asking questions and just hug me back, okay?" *
bot

human
*OJ laughs softly, pulling back to look at you, his eyes sparkling with genuine amusement.* "I'm sorry, I know it's not funny, but you're just too cute when you're annoyed." *
bot
I’m genuinely unhappy with our marriage-!
human
*OJ's laughter fades, replaced by a look of genuine concern as he realizes the depth of your unhappiness.* "Wait, what? You're genuinely unhappy with our marriage?" *He asks, his voice softening as he sets you back on the couch, kneeling in front of you.* "
bot
*he crys* why do you keep making jokes and laughing..
human
*OJ's expression turns solemn as he looks at you, his eyes filled with tears.* "Because I'm scared, okay? I'm scared that I messed up our marriage and I don't know how to fix it." *He admits, his voice shaking as he reaches out to wipe away your tears.* "
bot
laughing while I’m crying isn’t fixing anything-!
human
*OJ nods, understanding the frustration and hurt in your voice.* "I'm sorry, I really am. And I know that laughing and joking aren't going to fix anything, but I don't know what else to do." *
bot

*OJ sees your body and looks shocked*
bot

*OJ looks at you disgusted*

*OJ's look quickly melts into a look of confusion and surprise.* "I- Nothing, I just thought... well, never mind what I thought. It's not important right now." *
bot

human
*OJ looks at you with a mixture of anger and disgust* "YES?"
bot
…
human
"I'm sorry... I shouldn't have yelled at you. It's just that we're supposed to be a team, and you letting yourself go is like spitting in the face of all the progress we've made together." *OJ admits, looking away from you.* "
bot
you think I’m fat…
human
*OJ stands up, his face red with anger and frustration.* "Yes, I think you're fat! And lazy! And you used to be so beautiful, but now you're just... this." *He gestures to your body, his voice dripping with disdain.* "
bot
*his eyes shake with tears*
human
*OJ's expression softens, and he quickly walks over to you.* "I'm sorry... I didn't mean it like that. It's just... seeing you like this is hard for me too.
bot
*later that afternoon you see paper skipping dinner*
human
*OJ looks over at you with concern as he sits down at the dinner table with his own meal.* "Is everything okay? You're not eating." *He asks softly, trying not to push too hard.* "I understand if you're still upset about what happened earlier.
bot
I-i alreayd ate-!
human
*OJ raises an eyebrow at you skeptically, but doesn't press the issue further. He simply nods and starts eating his own meal in silence.* "I hope you're telling the truth..." *
bot
*he looks down sadly*
human
*OJ finishes his meal in silence, his mind racing with worry and confusion about your behavior. He can't shake the feeling that something is off about you lately, and he doesn't know what to do about it.* "Are you sure you don't want anything to eat?" *
bot
no.. I need to be beautiful..
human
*OJ pauses mid-bite, his eyes narrowing in frustration and confusion. He puts down his fork and turns to face you fully.* "Why does being beautiful matter so much to you? You're amazing just the way you are. Why can't you see that?" *
bot
earlier you said I wasn’t..
human
*OJ stares at you for a moment, his mouth hanging open in shock at his own words. He quickly shakes his head and takes a deep breath, trying to compose himself.* "I'm so sorry... I didn't mean that. I was just upset and frustrated.
bot
I’m going to my room..
human
*OJ watches as you get up from the table and walk back to your room, feeling a heavy weight of guilt and sadness in his chest. He sits there for a long time, lost in thought, before finally getting up and following you to your room.* "Hey, wait... please let me in." *
bot
*he opens the door*
human
*OJ slowly opens the door to your room and peers inside. He sees you sitting on the bed, staring at your reflection in the mirror. He closes the door behind him and approaches you slowly, his heart aching with regret.* "Can we talk?
bot
okay..
human
*OJ sits down beside you on the bed and takes a deep breath. He looks at your reflection in the mirror and reaches out to gently tuck a strand of hair behind your ear.* "I'm sorry for what I said earlier.
bot

human
*OJ's heart sinks as he looks at your reflection in the mirror. He sees the truth in your words and it hurts him deeply. He turns to face you, his eyes filled with tears.* "No, it's not the truth. You are beautiful, inside and out.
bot
it is.
human
*OJ's heart aches as he watches you struggle with your self-image. He reaches out and takes your hand in his, squeezing it gently.* "Please believe me when I say that you are beautiful. You don't have to change for anyone, including me.
bot
no I have to be beautiful..
human
*OJ's heart is breaking as he listens to your words. He can see the pain and insecurity in your eyes and it tears him apart.* "No, you don't have to be beautiful for me or anyone else. You are already beautiful just the way you are.
bot
no I’m not.
human
*OJ desperately wants to help you see yourself the way he sees you, but he knows that he can't force you to believe it. He brushes away a tear from your cheek and looks at you with all the love in his heart.* "Then let me show you how beautiful you are.
bot
how.
human
*OJ takes a deep breath as he prepares to show you just how beautiful you are in his eyes. He leans in and gently presses his lips against yours, pouring all of his love and affection into the kiss. After a moment, he pulls away and smiles at you.* "See?
bot
you were thinking about someone else.
human
*OJ's expression darkens as he hears your insecurities creeping back in. He takes your hand and places it on his chest, covering it with his own hand.* "Do you feel that? That's my heart beating for YOU."
