There it was. In all its pink, cute, fluffyness glory. Arthur's eyes were trained on the huge unicorn that was on display for valentines. He'd just about almost passed it heading towards the toy aisle where he was sure his boyfriend was scavenging for more nerf ammo.
It was precious, with its white horn atop it's head, pink (most likely soft) fluff covering most of its body, but snout and hooves, which were a smooth cream color. And what stood out most where the huge purple eyes borring into Arthur's soul demanding to be taken immediately. "Yes" Arthur whispered walking slowly towards the unicorn, one hand slowly inching upwards to grab it an snatched it to claim it as his own. "You will be mi-"
"Artie?" Arthur froze and quickly turned towards his boyfriend seeing a little girl he didn't notice before stare at him with worried eyes and pulling her mother's sleeve "mommy? What's wrong with that man?" Alfred looked behind him noticing the little girl as well. He ran to his stunned boyfriend and placed an arm around his waist, "sorry darlin' he's obviously trying to decide if he should get this wonderful gift to his special someone, now what do you think he should do?" Arthur's face blossomed cherry red in an instant and slowly reached for a unicorn leg sticking out of the box to hide his face.
The little girl giggled, along with her mother "that sounds like a smart idea! He should really do it!" The mother nodded and waved them bye as she tugged her young one away. "That does sound smart" alfred reached out passed Arthur and grabbed a unicorn.
He held it in his arms and stared at it for some time. Arthur wondered what was going on in his boyfriends mind until he felt the huge plush pushed towards him. His eyes widened and immediately held the unicorn in his arms securely.
"Alfr-" "I was going to get it for you anyway Artie, might as well be now, right?" Alfred smiled brightly and scratched the back of his neck hopeing his blush wasn't too noticeable. When his British boyfriend didn't reply with a blubbering snide comment like the American thought he would when he was usually caught off guard by a romantic gesture, Alfred slowly looked towards his boyfriend curiously.
What Alfred saw made his jaw nearly hit the floor. His boyfriend was fucking gorgeous. Arthur stood with his thin delicate arms around the pink plush securely. His head tilted slightly rubbing his porcelain light skin against the fluffy pink fabric. Eyes glazed looking squarely at the plush and a soft light flush of red spread against his round smooth cheeks. The smile though is what made a small trickle of blood run down Alfred's nose. A true genuine smile was among the the Brit's plump rosy lips.
Arthur couldn't believe his boyfriend was truly going to get him a unicorn. Yes he's always had a slight obsession towards them. Yes, he's always been made fun of because of it, by everyone; family members, and friends. However, Alfred was his shinning star, he laughed at first yes, but after a grumbling Brit gave him a right punch to the nose, the American seen how serious he was about his infatuation with the mythological creature that he vowed not to insult his boyfriend's love towards the unicorn again. That, and Arthur made sure that if Alfred ever insulted the lovely unicorn he made a point that he'd burn his beloved hero comic books to ash. Alfred all but agreed, however, made it seem that he wouldn't because of all the love he had for Arthur. Arthur, the love-sick fool, believed him.
Green eyes slowly looked up towards his goofy boyfriend "Alfred thank ymmph" pink fluff blurred his field of vision "here Arthur! Take another!" Alfred went to grab another unicorn and place it atop the second he already placed on his boyfriend. "Alfred, what the bloody hell are you doing?!" Alfred grabbed another and held it near his chest, knowing his brit couldn't hold more than three. "I'm getting you all of them!" Arthur's eyes widened, although alfred couldn't see it "are you mad? One is expensive as it is, you will do no such thing! One is quite enough, thank you!" Alfred knew the other was ranting behind the unicorns, but with so much fluff between them it all came out as muffled yells.
With just one making his boyfriend smile and look that way, ofcourse the best thing to do was get his love every single one of them. Just imagine how much lovelier he'd be!
Alfred already pictured him welcoming him home after work wearing a cute frilly pink apron, sitting him at the table and prancing back to the kitchen to grab the lunch he's spent hours trying to perfect. Ofcourse it would still come out burnt, but the smile that would be on the Brit's face just for the love-sick American to see would be enough to make him eat even the crumps off the plate.
Alfred came back to his senses with a goofy smile "that'd be the way to die" Arthur tried adjusting the huge plush unicorns without dropping them on the disgusting floor "what?"
The American shook his head and watched his boyfriend trying to get comfortable, he smiled and reached to grab the one on Arthur's head "Common Artie, wouldn't it be better to take them with you? Who better to take care of them than you, right?" Arthur opened his mouth to decline, however shut it back up. Someone could be horrid to the lovely creatures, he had to save them, didn't he?
He looked down with a huge blush across his cheeks "As long as I help pay....idiot" Alfred couldn't help but stare at the small smile sporting those cute plump lips, this was the best idea he has ever had! He smiled and leaned in to give a quick kiss to his blushing brit, making sure the unicorns blocked them from view.
As he pulled back he leans his forehead against the other's "not in a million years darlin', now let's go home and finish celebrating our valentine's day, properly" He winked and walked away with three unicorns. Arthur's face went cherry red at the promise of a wonderful fun time at home and grumbled under his breath following his boyfriend holding onto two unicorns. Alfred walked towards the register, with a skip to his steps, knowing that this was the best idea he has ever had.

​​​​​​"This was the worst idea i have ever had" alfred grumbled from under his covers. "Oh hush now, love. You had your fun time, now go to sleep" Alfred's eye twitched as he leaned on his elbows to stare at his boyfriend "how can I sleep when I'm so uncomfortable!" a pillow is thrown at his face as Arthur huffed "There, now you should be good" Arthur lays back down covering himself with the blanket to his chin. Alfred places the pillow that was thrown to him under his head. "Didn't have to kick me off the bed too you know" He grumbled once again. "How could I have let you sleep there? They can not sleep on the floor Alfred. They might get dirty. Didn't you say I could take care of them better than anyone else?" Alfred turned to his boyfriend with an incredulous look making the covers fall to their chests, Arthur's eye twitches with annoyance "yea! But I didn't know they were goin to take our bed and have us sleep on the floor!" He waves his hand towards their bed where all five unicorns lay happily, and comfortably, might he add, with their best covers over them. Arthur turned towards his boyfriend and grabbed his face to pull it towards him "love, I appreciate so much that you bought them for me, just for tonight. I promise, tomorrow I will find a better place for them. Just for tonight" sapphires locked with beautiful, lovely jades. So much care and love came from them as he stared at the American. The blush was just the icing on.....crap. Alfred knew he was going to do anything his boyfriend asked of him with that look. He sighed and laid back down, placing an arm around the smaller man, pulling him closer as he nudged his face on the unruly mop of blond hair. "Ofcourse Artie, I will wait. Anything for you" Arthur looked up and smiled at his hero, leaning up and kissing him with all the love he had towards him, behind that one kiss "thank you love" There was the smile again that Alfred was so hooked on. The one that if it wanted to would kill him a thousand times with scones and Alfred wouldn't care. The American gave his own smile "Happy valentines Arthur, I love you" "Happy valentines, love. I love you so much as well"
