Sitting at my desk waiting for a call was the worst part about this job. I want to help people and do good to help right my wrongs. Ziggy walked into the common room looking around till she found me.

"Ah Asbo you have a call in the office." I furrowed my brows not knowing who it could be. She shot a look back at me, realising it was most likely my wife on the phone. "Thanks" I remarked as I hopped out of my chair, on my way to the office.

The swivel chair span as I plopped into it. Putting the phone to my ear I began, "As-Dennis speaking." I shook my head at the dumb nickname slipping up. "Oh hey babe so I figured you could stop by for lunch, I made some food for you and Danielle misses you."

"Hi Daddy!" My daughter shouted in the background causing a smile to take over my features. "Hi sweetheart I'll be home in a little bit to say hello but I can't stay for long." The sad "ok" could barely be heard over my wife's laughs. "Dennis, I got a babysitter tonight so we could watch movies and 'stuff'."

I understood what she meant by the word "stuff". We only ever used that word when Dani was around. A night alone with y/n is just what I needed, taking care of a 6 year old is hard work. "Alright babe my shift will be over at 6 so I'll be home around 6:30. I love you."

"I love you too. Oh and make sure to wear your uniform home. " The awful beep erupted from the phone telling me she had hung up. I sighed and shook my head knowing she loved seeing me in uniform.
It's another one of the reasons I love my job.

I unglued my ass from the comfortable leather chair on a mission to the common room. I grabbed my coat ready to take my lunch break. "I'm going to lunch anybody need anything while I'm out?" People shook their heads as I threw on my coat, heading for the double doors. "Asbo! Give this to Danielle for me I remembered her birthday was last week." The stuffed animal she handed me filled me with glee. I thanked ziggy and began my journey home.

I stood by the door of our house waiting for y/n to answer my knocks. The door lock began to fumble as I heard my daughter struggling on the other side. With silent laughter on my part the door opened. The little girl ran towards me with enough speed to beat a race horse. Her arms wrapped snugly around my legs.

Picking up Dani I left little kisses all over her face leaving her in a fit of giggles. "Look what aunt ziggy got you!" I held up the bear which Danielle gladly snatched from me. I looked up and saw my beautiful wife leaning on the door frame, smiling at me and the little girl. "I fixed you a sack lunch, knowing you wouldn't be able to stay long."

I looked at her in admiration, slightly shaking my head at the thought of being so lucky to have someone in my life as great as her. "I can come in and sit down for a bit then I'll leave." With Danielle still in my arms I followed y/n in the house. Shutting and locking the front door behind me.

I told my daughter to run and play as I met y/n on the couch. She was laying down looking at me with a tired smile. I gently laid on top of her feeling the air getting pushed out of her lungs. With a rough laugh she spoke "Honey you are fucking heavy."

Pushing my head in the crook of her neck I mumbled an I love you. She repeated the same words when she kissed my head. The only sound was the slight laughter from our daughter in her bedroom. It was moments like these I was glad to be alive. I had a two beautiful reasons to come home everyday.

The serene moment was ruined by the harsh static of my work radio. Jumping up off the couch earning a wince from y/n, I listened intently to the direction of the fire. Once the chatter stopped I leant down a left a kiss on her cheek and said a quick goodbye. My jacket went back on soon after. "Bye sweetheart you'll be gone by the time I'm home but I love you!"

"Love you too Daddy!" Was the last thing I heard when I grabbed the sack lunch and I shut the door. I got into my car, starting the engine, and quickly pulling out of the driveway. The samwhich and chips went everywhere, eating in the car on the way was not the best idea. I drove by the station noticing the truck was still there.

I left the car as quick as possible. Running into the station, throwing on my helmet, and jumping into the truck as it pulled out of the station. Kev lightly scolded me for my timing but he dropped it.

"Okay so do we remember when our little boy Asbo popped a stiffy on his first run? It's been 10 years since then." I rolled my eyes at the horrid memory. "I remember it like it was yesterday. My boy has all grown up now. Speaking of which how's Dani?" Kev spoke up so I could hear him over the sirens.

"She's good, y/n's got a babysitter for tonight so you know what that means." Wiggling my eye brows making everyone laugh. "Don't tell me you're adding to the family?" My eyes widened at kev's question.

"No! I want another but not right now, I'm barley earning my money back from all the diapers. I don't see how ziggy handled twins." Before she could answer the truck stopped as my coworkers began to file out.

I looked down at my watch after finishing the third fire of the day. I blinked several times while staring at the watch. It was 8:45.

Fuck.

I'm late.

As soon as the truck pulled into the station I flew out of the red vehicle onto the sterdy concrete. Not listening to the conversation my co workers were having. I had to put up my helmet and do some other tasks before I could leave. Once all that was sorted I was out of the station and in my car.

As I was driving I tried to call y/n but was only met with voicemail. I didn't dare read her texts from hours ago. Once at home I noticed her car was missing. I got to the front door and walked into the cold, dark house.

A few lights was all that was needed to see the note stuck onto the refrigerator.

"Hey babe, you're late.
again.
I'm not mad, just disappointed.
Food is in the microwave.
I'm out to get a couple drinks I'll be home later.
Love you,
Y/n"

The note reread it's self, playing out loud in my head. She's not mad but disappointed. That's way worse than mad. I might as well make up the couch for sleeping tonight. The guilt I felt over whelmed me.

So I came up with a plan.

I opened up the cupboards looking for the tea candles. Once I found them I ran upstairs setting each candle in a specific spot on the bathtub. I made sure to sit one of her bath ball thingies on the tub next to her favorite bottle of lotion.

I laid out towels and her silk robe she loved so much. Standing there, smiling at what I had accomplished I decided to head downstairs and clean up the place. The clock neared 9:30 as I started to worry. She hasn't called or texted and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't filled with guilt and fear.

I sat on the couch watching as the image of her favorite movie burnt into the tv screen. With the jiggle of a lock and y/n's not so quiet curse words I knew she was home. I closed my eyes glad she's okay and took a moment just to breathe.

My eyes soon opened and met her cold gaze. I sent a soft smile her way watching the way her eyes shut as she smelt the house. I'm sure she noticed how i lit her favorite candles upstairs. Her eyes opened the color residing in them shining brighter than normal.

"I missed you Dennis." The sorrow evident in her tone. "I'm sorry love, I truly am. You know how the job is. I was stuck at a fire and didn't get home till earlier." Her chest heaved, the sigh being loud enough to pierce my ears. "Den, the hours don't bother me. It's the way I feel when you don't get home on time. The moment the clock struck seven o'clock I started thinking about how I was going to tell our daughter her dad passed away in a fire."

A tear fell down her face as she stood there by the door not even dropping her purse yet. My heart broke listening to her words and watching her cry. I stood up meeting her in front of the door. "Stop. Don't even think that. I'm not dying anytime soon. There's so much we still have to do. Danielle is getting bigger as we speak, i want to have more kids with you, and we still need to pay off this house. I want to be here with you and this family for the good and the bad. I'm not going to give up that easy. I fucking love you."

She stood straight her hands slightly shaking. The silence began to freak me out. "Y/n please say something." She blinked a few times finally speaking up.

"You want to have more kids?" I replayed my previous words in my head racking my brain for when I said those words. "I mean of course I do. I love being a dad and Dani always talks about being a big sister." Y/n dropped her purse, quickly undoing her coat and hanging it on the the wrack.

Her arms snacked around my shoulders as she looked up into my eyes and said, "Let's make a baby." My eyes grew wide as my pants grew tighter at the thought of what was to come. "Right now?" I questioned confused at her quick change of emotion. She removed her shirt, showing off the red lacy bra I had brought her.

"Whenever you're ready." She said as teasingly as possible. "Well now is as good of time as any." I replied while picking her up bridal style. She giggled at my antics watching me as I focused on getting up the steps. I kicked the already cracked bedroom door open. Once inside the room I walked her into the bathroom and sat her down. She was in awe at the work I had done earlier.

"You did all this?" She turned to look at me. "Actually no I called some other guy and he came and did it all for me." I sarcastically replied making her shake her head. "You're so annoying but I love you. Now smart ass how about you run some hot water while I turn all the lights off down stairs." She smacked my ass as she walked through the door leaving me frozen in the bathroom.

Finding the right temperature, I left the faucet on the tub running. I grabbed another
towel for myself accidentally glacing up at the mirror. Looking in the mirror I decided my face could use a shave. Standing there debating on changing my clothes, the smell of smoke and sweat hanging on my skin.

The shaving cream felt cold against my hand as it slowly grew bigger by the second. "Dennis, don't shave. I like the scruff." I happily scoffed until I saw her reflection in the mirror. She was wearing a light pink nightgown made of silk. The black lace trim wrapped snugly around her breasts. The faint outline of her nipples shown through the thin fabric.

My breath was caught in my throat as I watched the sly smirk appear on her beautiful face. "So are you going to help me in the bath or are you going to stand there staring." She laughed when she saw me quickly wash the white foam off my hands.

I was about to run towards her and pick her up when I stopped myself. The look of confusion washed over her face. "Let me change first cause my work clothes stink." Her bottom lip went between her teeth as she thought for a moment. "No I have an idea baby..." The words filling me with sexual fear.

She left me standing by the sink, instructing me to stay still. She walked over to the tub ridding herself of the pink nightie. Once her naked body entered the tub she turned off the water. Staring up at me with big eyes she finally gave me instructions. "Take your shirt off slowly and then your pants."

I was always pretty shy. Even with my wife at times. This was one of those times. I didn't have to see my face to know I was blushing hard. I fumbled with the white fabric until I took a deep breath and slowly, teasingly pulled it above my head. I heard her breath hitch as I ran my hand down my chest to get a grip on the button of my work pants.

Her hand ran down her body, playing with herself right in front of me. It was very erotic and I loved every second of it. My pants were soon unbuttoned and slid off my legs. Leaving me in my underwear. Her eyes locked onto my obvious erection. My fingers played with the waist band of my boxers, my nerves beginning to get the best of me.

"Honey I want to see all of you." The soft sparkle in her eyes was more than enough encouragement. The elastic slid down my legs similar to the way my pants did. Once I was fully naked I walked over to the tub and sank myself down into the water. I closed my eyes, letting the hot water relax my muscles. The guilt I had felt earlier seemed to evaporate off my body.

I opened my eyes noticing y/n with her eyes closed relaxing just as I did a moment ago. I grabbed the soap off the lip of the tub. I was about to pour the lavender liquid into the tub before y/n stopped me. "Uh I wouldn't put that in here if we plan on doing 'things' "

I knew exactly what she meant but whats the fun in that. "What do you mean? I plan on washing off and then hopping into bed." All my muscles contracted when her hand gripped my erection. "Oh well that's not what your body is telling me right now." Her hand began to pump my length causing a few moans to leave my mouth. "I guess I could stop. Let you wash off and go to bed."

"No! Please.. keep going." The desperation in my voice made me wince. She loved it however. Her hand quit its game leaving me frustrated. "I want you to beg for it Dennis." Her lips went straight to my throat as her body hung over me. Her cunt brushed over my dick over and over again. "Please y/n.." the words were quiet but I knew she could hear them. "Please what?"

I grabbed her hips and pulled her down onto my length. Her gasp mixed with my grunt to make a beautiful sound. She never protested like I would have expected. She moved her hips in a steady rythem making me whimper for her to go quicker. She didn't listen to me though. The agonizingly slow speed continued. The only thing I could do was once again grab her hips and make her go faster.

Her hands found my shoulders leaving red scratch marks here and there. The water splashed around us as I pumped in and out of her. My lips found her nipple as I bit down harshly on the swollen nub. She screamed at my action, if I didn't know her better I would've thought I hurt her. She picked up speed making my thighs quiver.

She sat all the way down as I released inside of her. I leaned up to kiss her as we rode out our highs. Her head went in the crook of my neck as she tried to catch her breath. My arms wrapped around her. We just laid there loving each other. After a few minutes she finally let go and carefully removed me from her.

"Baby can I wash your hair?" I asked hopeful for a positive answer. She turned her back towards me and slid between my legs laying her back on my chest. "Dennis I love you."

"I love you too y/n."
