They settle on the sofa, under a quilt. With Niall wrapped in his arms, Harry whispers, "I love you so much, Niall. Will you marry me?"

----- 

Niall turned around to face Harry, the bigger mans arms holding him tight. "W-w-what?"

Harry grinned. Without releasing the love of his life from his arms, Harry reaches into his pocket, pulling out a black velvet box. 

"Niall James Horan. I love you so much. I don't know what I  would've done if you hadn't come running to me all those years ago, looking for shelter. If I hadn't found you that night when...." Harry's eyes begin to fill with tears. He doesn't finish the sentence. He doesn't have too. Niall knows what he means.

"I love you so, so much. I know we've had a rocky past, but I want to spend the rest of my life holding you in my arms. Will you marry me?"

Niall looked up at him, ocean eyes filled with so many emotions. "Harry, I-" He paused, taking a shuddering breath, before looking back up at him. "Yes. Yes, yes, yes. Of course."

Harry grinned, enveloping Niall in a tight hug. 

"I love you." He whispered.

"I love you too."

*SEVERAL MONTHS LATER*

Harry yawned, flicking on the lights as he wandered into the kitchen early in the morning. He smiled when he saw his husband curled up in the arm chair, fast asleep. Niall had been working night after night, helping his company prepare for some big case. 

Harry smiled as he brushed the blonde hair away from his forehead. He'd missed moments like this, the sweet and simple times. They'd both been incredibly busy, and it had been making both of them cranky. There had been lots of arguments. Harry hoped that once this business deal was out of the way, he'd have more time to take care of his husband. 

Pressing a gentle kiss to Niall's temple, Harry wandered over to the counter, grabbing a mug for his morning tea. He smiled as Niall slowly groaned, pushing himself up from the chair.

"Morning baby." Harry said, hurrying over to Niall. The smaller man grinned sleepily, holding his arms out to Harry.

"Hazza." He slurred sleepily. Harry chuckled, wrapping his arms around his husbands thin frame.

"Hey Ni. Sleep very good?"

Niall shook his head slowly. "Got so much work. Makes me tired."

Harry laughed. "I can tell. Why don't you go take a shower, and you can go lay in our bed. Get some real sleep before you've got work tonight."

Niall nodded, rubbing his eyes as he wrapped himself up in the throw blanket, shuffling towards the stairs. Harry shook his head fondly at his too-cute companion. 

Niall glanced back at him from the stairs. "Join me in the shower?" He asked, a tired smirk resting on his face. Harry frowned. 

"I've got work in 15. Need to head over to the office."
