My Sunset

Steve Buscemi x Danny Devito

Danny's POV

Steve's got a job as firefighter. It's got good pay I guess but a firefighter? Who's he kidding? He's 61 years old. Of course I give him my support on this but I think the guy his absolutely nuts. Some asshat named "Mr. Cena" let my Steve join the fire department? He's going to get himself killed, I just know it.

"Bye baby. I'll see you at 4 when I get home. Love you." I hear Steve whisper to me while I'm still half asleep. I try to tell him I love him too but I can't muster the energy to even whisper to him. I mumble a little and doze back off.

When I wake up it's about 10:45 which is normally about the time I get up. I'm disappointed when Steve isn't there by my side to greet me when I wake up. I sadly trot downstairs and pour some coffee. Takes me a while to find the mugs since we only moved in about three days ago and Steve usually pours me coffee in the mornings anyways. I grab myself a couple of protein bars and head to the couch. I find the remote and see a sticky note.

'Your favorite channels are highlighted in blue. The volume button is highlighted in yellow. The power button is highlighted in green and the mute button is highlighted in red. Love you bunches. -Steve'

"God I love that man." I exclaimed to myself with a smile as I sat down and began to find my channels. I decided to watch Wheel of Fortune since that's what was on. Steve loves Wheel of Fortune. I ate my protein bars and occasionally took little sips of coffee. I'd watched tv for about two hours when I started to nod off. I was bored here all alone without Steve and I didn't have anything better to do. I napped for about two hours. When I woke the clock read 3:23. Just half an hour until Steve came home. I got up and ate half a sleeve of crackers to pass the time. I played Solitaire until the cottage door opened up and Steve walked through it. I ran over to greet him.

"Jesus Christ I missed you," I hugged him tightly. "I missed you so freaking much Steve. So much." I started crying into his chest.

"I miss you too Danny, it's ok." Steve assured me and squeezed me. I wiped the tears away from my eyes and gathered myself.

"C'mon, lets sit on the couch and you can tell me all about your first day." I suggested. Steve got joyous at the idea and we made our way to the couch. He immediately began telling me everything. He was the most excited I had seen him in years. I couldn't help myself but to smile at his happiness.

"Danny, it was incredible. I was just observing most of the time and I loved every second of it." Steve said as he laid his head in my lap. He yawned a little and I stroked his hair.

"Wanna watch tv babe?" I asked. Steve didn't say anything. I asked again and realized he has fallen asleep. Must've been an exhausting day for him. I turned on the tv for myself and let my boyfriend rest. I covered him up as best as I could with a blanket and kissed the top of his head.

"Thank you Danny." Steve muttered sleepily.

"No problem honey." I whispered.
