Aaron and Philip

Aaron and Philip have been together for almost a decade.
They have a loving, easy relationship, until Aaron is promoted at work; after his partner misses anniversaries and birthdays, Philip decides he can't live with Aaron's indifference towards him any more.

Extract:-
Aaron came in, still wearing his knee-length coat, and looked around the room.
“What’s going on?” He asked, looking bewildered.
Phil smirked, rolling his eyes.
“You forgot, didn’t you?”
“Forgot what? Our anniversary?” Aaron asked tentatively, looking bashful.
“No, your birthday.” Philip smiled and embraced his partner.
“It’s not my birthday. My birthday is June the seventh.”
“And what day is it today?”
Aaron thought for a moment, before he blushed.
“Alright, so I’m an idiot,” he said with a laugh.
