{Erwin's PoV}

I tiredly strolled up to the front door of my house. It had to be at least 10 p.m. on this chilly Friday night in October. I had been working late all week, much to my exhaustion, but at least I had (Y/N) to come home to. I inserted my key into the lock and turned it. The lock clicked open, so I pushed the door open and walked into the dark house. I sighed and flipped the light switch, the mudroom flooded with light.

"(Y/N)? Are you still awake?" I called up the staircase. No response. Again, a heavy sigh escaped my lips and I entered the kitchen. The stove light was still on, so the countertop was still visible. On the stovetop was a plate with aluminum foil wrapped over it and a sticky note on the silver foil. I walked over to it and read the note:

Erwin,
I made dinner for you. Just put it in the microwave for a minute or two.
-Love, Y/N

I smiled at the note and placed it on the counter. I wasn't very hungry, so I put it in the fridge as quietly as I could. Then, I creeped up the stairs, trying my best not to trip over anything. Suddenly, a soft sob came from the bedroom. I raised an eyebrow and opened the door softly. Since it was recently WD-40'd, it didn't make a sound. My heart was saddened at the sight of (Y/N) curled up on the bed, covered with a gray blanket. He was sobbing into his hands, he probably didn't sense my presence yet.

"(Y-Y/N)?" I whispered with visible pain in my voice. (Y/N) quickly looked up at me with puffy red eyes and tear-stained cheeks. He whimpered and turned away again. I offered a sympathetic smile and walked a bit closer to the bed.

"What's wrong baby boy?" I softly asked him. Again, he only let out a short whine and pulled the blanket farther up over his face. I sighed and sat down next to him. When I tried to reach out and rub his back, he just scooted away from me. I furrowed my brows sadly and retracted my hand back. If he didn't want to be bothered, I couldn't really do anything about it. 

Instead of provoking him further, I just stripped my shirt off and tossed it to the ground. Just as I was about to step in the bathroom to take a shower, I heard (Y/N) turn to face me. I spun around on my heels to see his pained eyes staring at me.

"You're never here anymore." He finally said after a minute of silence. I raised a confused eyebrow. What?

"What do you mean?" I inquired. He sighed and sat up with an annoyed look on his face.

"You know what I mean. You get up super early and you're gone by the time I wake up for work. Then you come home by the time I'm in bed. Our schedules don't correspond with each other, and it's annoying. I barely get to see you!"

"You're seeing me now aren't you?" I was instantly filled with regret while saying that sentence. What kind of response was that? 

"Are you joking Erwin? We haven't been on a date in a month, and that's all you have to say?"

"Look I'm sorry, okay? It's just that work is stressful, the nurses keep overbooking surgeries. It's overwhelming, but I'm trying to keep my sanity."

"I get it being a neurosurgeon isn't easy, but at least pick up my calls! I worry about you constantly!" I sighed and rolled my eyes as I stepped into the bathroom. "W-Wait Erwin. I don't want to fight, but please," (Y/N) paused to sniffle, "Just be here more. That's all I ask." My face softened. I knew I wasn't always there, but I tried my hardest. Well why can't I be here now?

"Angel..." I muttered before sitting on the bed. (Y/N) sobbed and buried his face into my chest. A small tear rolled down my cheek as well as I held him close to me. He sobbed into me, his tears dripping down my chest since there was nothing to soak them. I ran my fingers through his thick (H/C) hair and kissed his forehead. He looked up and pulled my face close to his, our foreheads were pressed against each other.

"C-Can we go o-out on Sunday?" He choked out through sobs. I chuckled and gazed into his beautiful (E/C) irises. It was so easy to get lost in his eyes, not even a map could get you out of them. I just couldn't stop staring sometimes.

"Why not tomorrow?" I questioned with a smile. 

"You need rest. We can...sleep all day tomorrow and spend some alone time together. You know, just to catch up?" He replied with as he wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me closer. I sighed happily and cupped his face in my hand. 

"That sounds relaxing. What would you like to do on Sunday?"  

"Maybe...we could just drive to the beach and stay there for the sunset." 

"I'd love to do that." I chuckled and planted a light kiss on his soft little lips. He smiled and buried his face into my neck. I don't even know why I grew distant from him in the first place. After a few minutes like this, he pulled me down next to him and took hold of my arms. He then wrapped them around his waist and laid his own arms around my neck.

And before I knew it, he was softly snoring beside me.
