Based on a conversation I had with my Roommate.

I let out a heavy sigh as I grab the last half eaten plate of food off the table and set it in the tub. Today had been a horrible day. The girl that was supposed to work today decided not to show up so I had to work my shift plus hers and it seemed like every customer was out for blood. Like, I understand they were probably fighting their own battles but did they really need to take it out on me? Thankfully, it was time to go home. I lift the tub and quickly carry it back to the kitchen and set it on the counter next to the sink.

"Thanks (Name)," I hear my manager Keith, say and I turn to see him walking out of the office towards me. "Mandy called and said she'll take your shift tomorrow, so enjoy your three-day weekend."

"She didn't have to do that, but tell her I said thank you." I say as I walk back toward the lockers. Reaching my locker, I place my head on the outside and let out a heavy sigh. I was extremely tired. Taking a deep breath, I open my locker and reach for my normal clothes and my cell phone. Closing the locker, I quickly change out of my restaurant uniform and hang it up in my locker before sliding my jeans and t-shirt on. Grabbing my cell phone, I open it to see that I had a missed call and I sigh.

I slide it in my back pocket as I grab my purse and coat. Sliding my arms through the arms of my coat I clock out and head out the door before anyone can keep me from leaving. Looking around I spot a taxi and decide to splurge on the ride home. Looking both ways I make sure no other cars are coming before I let out a loud whistle causing him to pause giving me enough time to climb inside. I quickly tell him my address and lean back in the seat letting out a sigh of relief. It was over. The day could only get better. Couldn't it?

I feel my cell phone vibrate and I groan as I pull it out to see my boyfriend's name pop up and I take a deep breath as I try to calm my nerves and put on a fake smile. "Hey handsome, sorry I didn't answer earlier. I had to work a double."

"Don't worry about it babe, I was just calling to say I love you, and ask you how your day was." Sebastian says and I try not to cry.

"It was fine, I'm just happy to be going home." I reply trying to hold my emotions back.

"You don't sound fine. You want me to come home?" He replies worry filling his voice.

"I can't ask you to do that, you've got a busy schedule with your movies and all that; I'll be fine once I get home and cuddle Frank."

"You're making me jealous of my own dog here babe." He says a chuckle escaping his lips.

"I can't help it he's cuter, fluffier, and cuddlier than you." I joke making him chuckle.

"Lucky ass dog." Sebastian replies with a gruff causing a smile to fill my lips.

"I swear, one day I may run away with him."

"You'd miss me, and that's my dog babe, you won't get far."

"He loves me more."

"I have no doubt about that." Sebastian replies a chuckle filling his voice. Oh god I really loved this man. "Well as much as I don't want to go, I have to get back to work."

"I understand," I reply the happy moments from just now disappearing completely. "Be careful, I'll call you tomorrow."

"Ok, love you babe; give Frank hugs for me."

"I will, Goodnight."

"Sweet dreams beautiful." As he hangs up I feel tears slowly fall form my eyes and I quickly try to wipe them away. I wasn't one for showing my emotions or letting anyone know how I really felt; not gonna lie it had been a problem in my past relationships but with Sebastian it was different. Not gonna lie I wish he could be here with me now. It'd be nice to cuddle up with him, but I knew what I was getting into when I started dating him.

"We're here." The cabby calls out bringing me from my thoughts and I look around to notice the familiar surroundings and handing him some money say, "Thank you. Have a good night."

"You too miss." He replies as I climb out of the cab and onto the sidewalk. I reach into my purse and pulling out my keys head for the front door and unlocking it step into the foyer. I step inside to see a pair of men's shoes and cock an eyebrow. Sebastian's lab Frank runs up to me and I reach out to pet him calling out, "Hello?"

"Oh, you're home." Sebastian says coming around the corner causing me to stare at him in confusion.

"Wha-"

"Before you say anything, put your stuff down and come with me upstairs."

"Sebastian, I'm-"

"Ah, ah, ah; just come on." He says holding his hand out to me. Letting out a heavy sigh I set my things down in the walkway and follow him upstairs where I suddenly smell something citrusy. Cocking an eyebrow in confusion until he leads me to the bathroom where I look around to see tons of candles covering the room. The bath was full of hot water and I could tell he had tossed my favorite bath bomb into the water. Tears threaten to pour as I turn to him about to say something when he says, "You get naked, hop in the bath and enjoy yourself. I've already cleaned the house and took Frank out for the night. All I want from you is to relax."

"Babe,"

"I know I'm amazing. Go on, I'll have dinner ready when you're finished." He says kissing me gently on the cheek.

"Thank you," I reply as he starts to walk out of the bathroom causing him to turn around and smile brightly at me before he heads back downstairs, Frank following closely behind him. Shaking my head, i slip out of my clothes and smile as I slowly descend into the nice hot water. Letting out a sigh of contentment I lean my head back against the back of the tub and let all the worries from earlier drift away.

~~~~~~

I didn't know exactly how long I had been in the tub; but from the look of my now wrinkly fingertips it had been a while. Taking a deep breath, I stand up and reaching for the towel pull it to wrap around my body. Since I had a slight fear of my house one day burning down, I walked around to all the candles and blew them out one by one. After I was sure they were all out, I walk into our bedroom and reaching into the dresser grab some clean underwear and then smile. I cock an eyebrow playfully as I walk over to the closet and walking in search for my favorite button up shirt of his.

When I find the one I want I pull it off the hanger and slip it over my shoulders. I button some of the buttons before I pull the ponytail out of my hair sighing as it falls comfortably down my shoulders. As if he sensed I had gotten out of the bath, Frank, runs into the room his tail wagging happily behind him. I lean down and smile softly as I reach up to pet his ears. "Hey Frank, how's momma's boy?" As if to answer me, he licks my face excitedly. "Love you too buddy."

Scratching his head one more time, I stand up and he follows me as I walk back downstairs to see Sebastian in the kitchen carrying take out containers to the kitchen table where he had made it look like a romantic scene. I smile softly as I watch him light the candle in the middle and then do a double take to make sure he had gotten everything before he finally notices me and Frank in the doorway. "Hey babe," He says his eyes looking me up and down as a hunger fills them.

"What's all this?" I ask as I near him.

"Ahem, this is a romantic dinner for two." He says clearing his throat and putting on a playful smile.

"Not three?" I ask as I slowly look down to Frank who was now sitting next to my feet a sad look on his face as he met eyes with Sebastian.

"Un uh, young man, I already fed you." Sebastian says getting on to him. He then turns to look up at me with sad eyes and I turn back to Sebastian.

"He's calling you a liar babe." I joke as I walk over to the cabinet to grab some dog treats causing Frank to wag his tail uncontrollably.

"You know babe, sometimes I think you only love me for my dog." Sebastian says and I pause for a moment and pretend he caught me and he chuckles.

"I can't help it," I retort as I turn back to Frank and say, "Sit." Frank sits and stares at the treat as if it's the last meal he will ever have and I smirk. I toss the treat to him and he gulps it down in one bite. "I can't say no to that face."

"But you can say no to mine?"

"Nope," I add quickly closing he distance between us to gently kiss his lips. "I could never tell either of you no." He smiles as he leans back in and kisses my lips tenderly.

"Are you hungry?" He asks into my lips and I nod.

"How could I not be after you did all this, babe," I look from the table to him and smile brightly. "I love you."

"Love you too, now let's eat." He says pulling my chair out for me to sit in.

"Did you get the Kung Pao?" I ask and he chuckles.

"I'd be a pretty shitty boyfriend if I didn't." He answers pointing to one of the containers as he moves to sit next to me.

"And the Sweet Fire Chicken?"

"Here."

"You know me so well." I reply my throat suddenly becoming tight the emotions I had pushed away earlier resurfacing. "Thank you so much for this," I say my voice cracking causing him to look over at me with knowing eyes. "You didn't have to rush home, draw me a bath, get take-out, and take care of Frank."

"I also cleaned the house, but keep going." He adds a loving smile filling his face making the tears cascade down my cheeks.

"See," I look away from him as I lean back in my chair and start to wipe the tears away. "What did I do to deserve you?" He leans over and wrapping an arm around my shoulders pulls me into a hug and gently kisses my forehead.

"Hun, I love you. If you have a bad day at work, I wanna be here to help you out. Just like you do for me."

"But you're busy with work, I don't want to become a burden." I say making him pull away slightly and look me straight in the eyes with a serious expression.

"(Name), you could never be a burden to me. I love you," He says his hand moving down to gently rubs circles on my back. "Do I hate how you like to keep everything bottled deep down until you break, yes I do; but that's not gonna change how much I love you. I want to take care of you. That's one of the reasons we moved into this house together." He says reaching up with his free hand to wipe the tears off my cheeks. "That and you only love me for my dog." He adds making me laugh causing a smile to fill his lips as Frank barks in agreement and lays his head in my lap.

"That's not fair," I say looking down at Frank. I reach down gently scratching his head before pulling my hand back and turning back to Sebastian reach up to cup his cheek. "Making me laugh is cheating."

"No, it's not." He replies his smile growing. "I'll make you laugh as many times as it takes to brighten your day; because I love you."

"I love you so much it hurts. You can never leave now, I hope you know that."

"I don't plan on it." He says pulling my hand from his face to place a kiss on my palm. "Now let's eat, because there's an 80's movie marathon tonight with our names on it."

"I take it, it's a sleep over on the couch kind of night?" I ask reaching out to grab my chopsticks.

"Damn straight." He says pulling from me to slide the Sweet Fire Chicken my way.

"Good thing I have a three-day weekend." I add and he smiles seductively his eyes looking back to me.

"Then it's a good thing I do too." He adds before grabbing the container full of eggrolls. "Now let's eat."
