Another shot to hell.

a house

Two years later, on Valentines Day, Niall was at a small house party. He was out on the porch when the door to the house opened and three people stepped out. He didn't look up, just kept his eyes on the floor. His eyes ran over their feet, one of the men were wearing combat boots, while the other one, whom was behind the two in front, wore sparkling pink ones. They were rather small and Niall smiled to himself because the color was pretty.

The woman was wearing black flats and Niall looked away as she walked past him with Combat Boots, leaving Sparkling Pink Boots behind.

He picked at his nails until the last guy walked over to him and sat in the space on the other side of his hip. The man's knee brushed his and as Niall looked up, he felt a small smile form on his lips.

Harry, whose wings looked small, sat beside him with his eyes on the floor. "I think they know I like you."

Niall licked his lips and pointed to the sky. "They up there?"

He nodded. "Yeah. They've been very quiet around me."

"Maybe it's not you they have a problem with."

Harry smiled. "No. They're watching me as we speak."

Niall quickly stood, eyes widening. "Are you suicidal?"

"Not allowed to be."

The clouds darkened and Harry looked up at them with a sigh. "Zeus," he whispered. He looked at Niall. "He's such a snitch. I got you something."

"I'm not going to be part of this. I don't know why you-"

Harry took whatever was sitting beside him and dropped it in Niall's hands, standing to his feet. Niall looked at the box of chocolates and looked at Harry slowly. "Happy Valentines Day. I know you don't celebrate it because you don't believe in love and stuff, but this is the only human holiday I think is actually quite nice. Mainly because my favorite color is everywhere in shapes of hearts. The color-"

"Pink," He interrupted him. "Yeah, yeah I know. Why are you so nervous? Is it because they're watching you? Why don't-"

"Don't care about them right now. I care about us."

He couldn't help the blush in his cheeks as he smiled. "There's an us?"

"My heart is beating really fast, but so is yours, so yeah. That's how it goes, I think."

He smiled and looked at Harry with a small smile. Harry took the box of chocolates from his hand and Niall, confused, watched as he set them down on the bench and then stood to his full height, the feathers of his wings blowing in the wind. "What are you doing?"

Harry smiled and brought both hands to Niall's chest, fixing his tie before smiling and taking a breath.

"Harry?"

He answered the question by pressing his lips against his.
