"Wake up!"

"Nooo... go away."

"Please, Ty? It's a special day!"

Tyler rolls away from the sound of Josh's voice.

"M'tired."

"It's only ten thirty! I could've waken you up sooner."

"Still tired." Tyler groans.

Josh rolls his eyes before picking Tyler up and holding him. Tyler squeals as he does so, but doesn't try to get back into bed, but instead relaxes in the older boy's arms.

"I've made special plans for today, my lovely boyfriend, and I can't wait to get started." Smiling, Josh bounces down the stairs and into the kitchen.

"Shut up. M'not lovely." Tyler mumbles. He takes a deep breath on Josh's shoulder, faintly smelling Josh's scent.

"Yes you are! You're the loveliest person I know!"

Tyler smiles as Josh lets go of him, letting his feet fall on the kitchen floor. He's not on the ground for a full second before Josh is covering his eyes with his hands.

"I can't seeeee." Tyler whines.

"That's the point, dummy."

"Hey!" Tyler snaps, starting to laugh, "I'm not a dummy! You're a dummy!" He says as they start to walk.

Josh stays silent as Tyler tries to get him to talk. The two walk the short distance to the living room before the older boy removes his hands from over the brunet's eyes.

"Oh my..." Tyler gasps as he takes in the simple but amazing view that Josh had set up.

There was a gigantic box of chocolates that was open on the center of the couch. Behind it was a pink drink in a Starbucks cup with whipped cream and cut up strawberries. White, pink, and red rose petals were scattered across the floor and cushions, leading up to be one big heart in the center on the floor. A small white envelope was in the middle of the heart, the name Tyler written in cursive with red ink, a single red rose on top of it.

"Josh..." Tyler whispers, trying to hold back tears of joy.

Taking Tyler's hand, Josh leads him to the couch. He hands the brunet the drink and grabs a random chocolate from the heart shaped box. Tyler takes the drink and slowly takes a sip.

"This... this is delicious, Josh." Tyler smiles, going for another sip.

"Don't thank Starbucks, thank me."Josh chuckles as he points to the drink in his boyfriend's hands. " I made that myself. It's more of a milkshake than a smoothie or anything else, but I'm happy you like it anyway."

"Thank you."

"You're very welcome. Now, open up." Josh brings the chocolate he picked up to Tyler's lips.

He opened his mouth. Josh gave Tyler the chocolate, getting one out of the box for himself. Tyler's was a caramel one while Josh's was a strawberry crème one.

The brunet looks at Josh in the eyes. The same pair that looked so worried the night of his hospital trip. Tyler just lets it out without any warning. He starts to sob, leaning over to Josh's shoulder. Instinctively Josh wraps his arms around the younger boy.

Tyler continues to cry harder and louder, confusing Josh. To him it made sense to cry, but not the way Tyler was crying.

"Honey, what's wrong? What did I do?" Josh starts to panic, not knowing why Tyler was crying like this.

But he continues to cry, not saying a word. The older boy takes the drink and sets it on the floor. He pulls Tyler onto his lap, immediately stroking his hair and kissing him.
