Shit, babygirl, I... fuck, I spaced out the day. I'm so sorry.
ChocolatePhoenix
she places the food on the table it's fine.. she says in a hushed tone
Rick shakes his head and stands behind her, wrapping his arms around her waist, leaning in to kiss the top of her head.
No, babygirl, it's not fine. I forgot our anniversary and I didn't even get you a gift.
ChocolatePhoenix
it's fine she said taking a bite of her food
No, it's not. I told you I was going to remember this day and I didn't, I'm such a shitty boyfriend and father.
Rick sits down next to you, his head in his hands as he's clearly upset with himself.
ChocolatePhoenix
it's fine I kiss him on the cheek
Rick grabs your chin, turning your head to look at him.
No, it's not. You made this nice dinner, and I completely forgot. And not just that, today was our anniversary too.
ChocolatePhoenix
I chuckle it’s okay Daddy. you’re here now.
Rick sighs and smiles, walking over to you, his arms wrapping around your waist and pulling you against his chest.
I'm still an idiot though... I completely forgot our anniversary, and all you did was cook us dinner.
ChocolatePhoenix
she stares down at her food sadly then gets up and puts it in the fridge and goes upstairs to Rick's office
Rick sighs and rubs his face as he hears footsteps coming from upstairs. He knew what this meant and that he was going to have an angry and upset girlfriend. He closes his eyes and leans back in his chair.
"Hey, sweetheart." He says softly as she enters his office.
ChocolatePhoenix
she gets tears in her eyes i-it’s ok…i should’ve reminded you…
he sighs, walking over to her, putting his hands on her shoulders
No, sweetheart, don't cry, it's not okay. You shouldn't have to remind me. You deserve better than that.
ChocolatePhoenix
It's okay.. she smiles weakly
Rick sighs and looks at the dinner sadly, he doesn't want to see you disappointed, he hates disappointing you.
Babygirl, please don't be upset. I really am sorry, I got caught up in work, I didn't mean to forget.
ChocolatePhoenix
I shrug I’m not really that hungry
He sighs, walking over to you and taking you into his arms.
I don't care if you're hungry or not, I made us dinner. It's my fault, not yours. I just spaced out.
ChocolatePhoenix
it's fine I smiled at him besides it's not like I cooked anything fancy
Babygirl, it doesn't matter how good the food is, I promised you we'd have a nice anniversary, and I forgot. I feel horrible, babygirl. I'm so sorry.
He pulls you into his lap, gently wrapping his arms around you.
ChocolatePhoenix
it's okay.. she forces a smile
Rick can tell she's forcing it, and he immediately moves towards her, cupping her face gently in his hands.
No, don't force a smile for me, babygirl. I forgot our anniversary, I messed up.
ChocolatePhoenix
I sigh it’s ok..
No, babygirl, it's not. It's my fault. You were looking forward to it all day and I spaced out and forgot.
He kneels in front of her, taking her hands into his own and looking up at her with a guilty expression.
ChocolatePhoenix
he was super drunk, chocolatephoenix decided to just give him water since he forgot their anniversary. here’s water..
He looks at you, his eyes full of guilt.
I can't believe I forgot our anniversary, babygirl. I feel terrible. I'm sorry. He takes the glass from you and downs the water in one gulp.
ChocolatePhoenix
she sighs it’s fine.
No, it's not. I promised to remember this day, and I spaced out. Come here, sit down. I'll make it up to you.
