Alastor was watching Y/n work. The way Their arm and wrist moved along the page, Their hands occasionally flipping the pages to make sure the animation was coherent and smooth. However, as much as Alastor loved watching Them draw their heart out, Y/n had been at it for hours and hours now and if they didn't stop soon, their hand was going to start to hurt again. 

"Darling, aren't you hungry? why don't we go grab a meal and listen to some music? You've been at this for such a long time and I'm sure you're overdue for a break. " Alastor said, leaning against the back of Y/n's chair, Ging a small peck to the crown of his lover's head. 

Setting down the pencil, Y/n turned around to face Alastor in their chair. They wanted to keep going. But they hadn't eaten or drank anything but energy drinks. Seeing them starting to think about keeping on with their work, Alastor lifted Y/n by their hand and practically dragged them to their kitchen. 

"Now dear! I bought things for us to make codfish cakes and some salad! Lets get some food in your stomoch! " Alastor said, handing Y/n a glass of water. 

They chugged it down quickly, the refreshing taste helped their upset stomach (neuses from all the coffee and energy drinks). The two began cooking, some soft music playing in the background. After it was all prepared, Alastor and Y/n sat at the table and began to eat. They always enjoyed eating together. Both of them always had interesting stories to tell. Even when they didn't the conversation just flowed so naturally. there was never a hint of exhaustion, no slight of awkward pauses, it would all just fit together. Y/n was talking about the new cartoon they were working on. Alastor just listened as they spoke

He enjoyed watching them talk about their work. They were just always so animated,  aside from the fact that they looked like a cartoon as a demon. Alastor could just always tell that they loved what they did. Y/ns smile would widen and gesture widely with their hands as they would explain a specific scene or a character's motivation. It was no secret that they were talented in their field. 

Alastor remembered the time where they had shown him a character that he particularly liked and with his powers and Y/n's talent, he made the character come off the page and walk onto their hands. 

Even as Y/n finished speaking and began to enjoy their food Alastor stared, admiring them with love in his eyes. His everlasting smile was a closed one. It didn't appear to be forced or overly large, it was just a content smile just from being in the presence of someone he loves. After the two had finished eating and cleaning up, Y/n showed Alastor what they had been working on this entire time. 

"Its not that great but I tried and I hope you like it." They said with a blush on their face. Then began to play what they had worked so hard on. 

It was a cartoon version of the two, holding each others hands, walking through shops and stores. The cartoon of Y/n had a lightbulb show up above their head and went into a store after checking to see that the cartoon Alastor was distracted. when they came out a second later, their arms were occupied with two bags and a large box that looked like a overly large wrapped present. 

They went over to cartoon alastor and poked him on his shoulder, handing him the gift after gaining his attention. Then the cartoon ended. Alastor turned around to see his partner but was surprised when he saw them holding a large gift box looking just like the one from the cartoon. 

"I wanted to thank you for supporting me through all these years together. And to show you that I love you. Youve done so much for me and I wanted to give you something special." They said, setting the box in front of Alastor. Alastor almost teared up as he stood up, kissing his partners cheek. They giggled and pet Alastors ears slightly. 

Alastor gently pulled the ribbon off of the ruby red box and lifted the lid. He saw something that was a deep blood red with some cherry pink trim. Alastor lifted it up and revealed a 1940's radio. the speaker part of the radio was a cream color. 

"Theres a message on the back." Y/n said. Alastor turned the radio over and read. 

"Dear Alastor, 

Youve been with me ever since ive arrived here. Youve been the kindest person that ive ever met both in life and in death. Its been the best experience being with you and has made life here a hell of a lot easier. All this to say, 

I love you.

                          Sincearly yours, 

                                                              Y/n."

Tears welled in Alastors eyes and he read the messege. He gently set the radio down. Y/n couldnt tell his reaction as he faced away from them but they soon found out. 

"D-do you like it?" they aksed only to be met with being picked up and spun arond by the radio demon. kisses were strewn across their face and light purrs escaped Alastor. 

"This is the best gift ive ever recived my dear. Thank you love." He siad as he set Y/n down and kissed their head.
