He told you to get nothing and to do nothing for his birthday, but he knew it was like talking to a brick wall. You wouldn't listen and you weren't going to take no for an answer. So when he got home from another exhausting day of work, he could not help the deep blush of gratitude, as he started to lightly scold you.

"Babe. I thought I told you not to?"

Arrays of gifts, a dinner that looks like it costs far too much, and a gentle embrace waiting for him. He couldn't lie about how lucky he was to have someone like you. How grateful you opened his cold heart and showed him that there are plenty of things worth fighting for, but that wouldn't stop his complaining however.
