We are infinite [part three]

We are infinite.

Harry and Louis were grateful for their tattoos. They had brought the two of them together. A few weeks ago, both their tattoos had changed from just the name of the other to both their names and forever and always. Harry had his on his left wrist and Louis’ was on his right wrist.

Lately, they had been talking about getting married and maybe starting a family. The problem was that they couldn’t get married in England because same-sex marriages still weren’t legalized. Which meant they had to fly somewhere it was legal, and maybe go on holiday there as well.

So they were thinking of Canada, which was a long flight, or maybe the Netherlands, which was only a one-hour flight. They had found out that the Netherlands had been the first country in the world to legalize same-sex marriages [this is actually a true fact and the one thing of my country I am proud of] though it wasn’t such a nice country to go on holiday.

Another option was to fly to the Netherlands, get married, then fly to Greece for their honeymoon. However, there was a small problem. They couldn’t invite a lot of people, because they all needed to book a flight and a hotel room.

“Do you really think we should get married?” Louis murmured to the younger boy, whose head was on Louis’ chest.

Harry hummed and traced invisible patterns on his boyfriend’s chest. “Yes. I know we’re still young but I can see myself with you in fifty years, married and-” His sentence was cut short by a hiss and he shot up, rubbing his arm. “Shit, that hurt.”

Seconds later, Louis hissed and rubbed his arm as well. “What happened?”

They both looked at the painful places on their arms and saw black letters. Tattoos.

“What’s this?”

“It looks like a new tattoo. What does yours say?”

“Oops”, Louis breathed, very confused by the new tattoos.

“Mine says hi. They’re the first words we ever said to each other, remember? When you ran into me in the parking lot and I dropped my ice cream”, Harry said and Louis nodded.

“Yeah, of course I remember. I said oops because I made you drop your ice cream and you just said hi and you seemed a little awestruck by me.” They both laughed and Harry kissed his boyfriend lovingly.

“I was already completely smitten with you back then.”

“You were”, Louis agreed, “but I was also pretty swept off my feet by you and your ridiculously gorgeous face.”

Harry blushed. “At least you didn’t show it.”

Louis shrugged. “I did have some trouble speaking.”

Harry laughed. “Aw, that’s cute.”

“You are cute”, Louis giggled, poking Harry’s cheek. Harry smiled and kissed the older boy’s nose.

“Come on, let’s get up. It’s already ten and we have some things to plan, such as tickets, hotel rooms and wedding rings.” Louis groaned and buried his face underneath his pillow. “Come on, Boo. Still a lot to do. I’ll make us pancakes for breakfast and then we have to go do stuff.”

Even though the two boys were going to get married in a few weeks, neither of them had proposed to the other yet. The idea of a marriage just came to them and they both agreed. That’s why Harry was going to pick up the wedding rings; so he could also buy an engagement ring and propose to Louis today.

Louis was going to the travel agency to book their hotel in Greece. The discussion on where to go for their honeymoon had been short; Greece seemed nice enough and the weather was really good.
