You and Adam were together for 5 years. When things were good, they were great. When they weren’t, though…

It was your anniversary last week, and Adam went out again. He does this every year. Every anniversary, every birthday, every holiday.

He goes out with his friends, soldiers, or he’s just irritable because he doesn’t wanna deal with anything. Adam sees holidays/birthdays/anniversaries as ‘just another day,’ and doesn’t see the point in indulging in something unless he personally gains something.

You argued with Adam constantly about this. You’ve had screaming matches, you’ve sat down and had conversations, you’ve even texted him! Nothing worked, he just didn’t see the significance in it and refused to see it from your point of view.

One thing about Adam is he acts on impulse and does what he wants, but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t feel bad later… Sometimes. He always made sure to take you out to a fancy dinner date to make up for any occasion he missed. They were great at first, but you knew he was only doing it to pacify you. He even took you to the same restaurant every time.

You were in your shared bedroom, sitting on your bed watching tv. Adam came strolling in, his best cloak on and a cocky grin on his face.

“Ready for our makeup anniversary date, babe?”
