Chapter 1
Harry opened the apartment door and, seeing no lights on, began to look for his partner.
-George?-
- I'm in the library-
Harry entered the room and couldn't help but be surprised when he saw what George had done.
He had changed the room completely, placing floating candles and fary lights wherever possible, and near the window he had built a huge fort with all the pillows that were in the house, there was also a picnic basket and at a very low volume Queen's music was heard.
George was standing in the middle of the bedroom watching my reaction, and seeing my confusion, greet me by giving me a kiss on the cheek and a hug.
-Harrynkins, surprise-
-George? What is all this?-
-It's your pre-birthday surprise-
Seeing my confused face, he continued with his explanation.
- I remember you told me love, that you always waited until midnight to celebrate your birthday.-
I tensed up when I began to understand what all this was about.
-You remembered?
George looked at me tenderly.
-Harry, love, I remember everything we've talked about since I met you.-
I felt my face start to turn red.
-That's why darling, I thought about starting a new tradition now that we live together- he hugged me again and rested his cheek on my head - So I thought that we could both wait until it was your birthday and then I would be the first to congratulate you-
My eyes began to fill with tears that I didn't want to let escape. I had never told anyone that I always wished my uncles and cousin loved me enough that someone would stay up with me waiting for my birthday so we could celebrate.
-I love you George-
George just smiled at me and before kissing and telling me that he loved me too.
We spent the entire time eating, talking or just cuddling up, watching the stars through the window.
Before 12, George made us stand up and start dancing slowly, tangled in each other's arms. And as soon as the clock rang at midnight George get on one knee, takes my hand in his and takes a box out of his pocket.
-George-
- Harry I promise to love you for all my life and give you the best I can, make you laugh, support you in your difficulties and always be by your side. Will you marry me?-
I couldn't help but cry with happiness, I nodded and George placed the ring on my finger, I threw myself into his arms and started kissing him.
-And you said that you are not romantic -
George shrugged.
-I may not be, but I know that you secretly love these things, so for you I am willing to learn.-
I couldn't stop a laugh from escaping and continued kissing him.
-Don't worry George, we have a whole life ahead of us to learn these kinds of things-
George smiled at me and kissed me again
