"Thank you for the new cufflinks Crowley, and the cookbook."
"Knew you'd like it." Crowley chuckled. "And thank you for the wine…1895..how'd you manage to get this?"
"I have my ways." Aziraphale grinned as Crowley was already pouring them each a glass. "Crowley, our dinner reservation…"
"Bah, just one drink." Crowley shrugged. "And my real present is me expressing my love to you."
"Oh you wily thing…" Aziraphale chuckled as he glanced at his glass of wine.
Suddenly, Aziraphale felt strange. A strange, yet wonderful burst of warmth erupted from the center of his stomach and spread throughout his body, making him feel a bit flushed.
"Angel, are you alright?" Crowley asked. "You haven't drank your wine…"
"I-I need to sit down…" Aziraphale rasped as he set down the wine glass on the nearby coffee table.
Crowley gulped down the last of the wine and dashed to Aziraphale's side as the angel sat in his chair.
"I…." Aziraphale suddenly realized that tears were streaming down his cheeks. He was crying.
"Oh my God, angel what's wrong?" Crowley demanded. "Are you sick? Hurt? Did I overdue it today?"
Crowley clasped Aziraphale’s hand as the angel replied, "It's strange my love, but I've suddenly found myself overwhelmed with joy."
"Really?" Crowley asked, instinctively reaching up and wiping away his husband's tears.
"Yes. These past six years have been….ineffable…."
"Yeah." Crowley replied as his own eyes stung with tears… "Ineffable."
