There’s a little place where the curtains don’t quite meet and the sun is streaming through it, making its way to the bedspread and tickling Oliver’s side. He’s laying in bed with his boyfriend, their legs entangled and Connor’s head tucked safely under Oliver’s chin. The room is quiet except for the little murmurs Connor makes in his sleep. He shifts a bit, his arm tightening around Oliver’s middle, as he mutters something that sounds like “S’cold, Ollie. Warmth.” and Oliver takes that as an invitation to snuggle closer. He holds Connor a little tighter, and feels his heart grow five sizes too big with how much he loves this man. 

“Marry me,” Oliver whispers into Connor’s hair and knows that he means it. Connor may not be awake to hear it now, but Oliver will say it again later. He’ll say it loud and clear and a thousand times if he has to. He knows that Connor will say yes -is sure of it, even- but the decision sends a flutter down his stomach still. 

He smiles into Connor’s skin, kisses his temple, and then drifts back to sleep.
