Harry's pov

Peter fell asleep in my office when I was calling-- the police and stuff.

I sigh.

We fight. A lot, a lot. Lately. But I really don't want to leave him. And I won't.

I'll marry him.

I blush.

That's the first thing that came up in my mind now...

I'll marry him, so he can't run away from me again.

He opens his eye. “Uh..”

I sit down to him and stroke his hair.

He catches my hand and pulls it up to his cheek and I smile.

“No one is gonna hurt you anymore.” I whisper.

He kisses my hand and my fingers, soothingly.

I blush.

“Take me home.” He whispers.

“Alright.. Alright.” I nod and rub his cheek quickly.

Timeskip; at home

Pete fell asleep again in a car. He must've been so tired? He was surely crying, as I know him. And I do know him.

So, I carry him to our apartment, placing him to the bed. It's almost dark.

I sigh.

“Pete...” I whisper.

He hums. “What?”

“I have something important to tell you. Get clothed up and meet me downstairs.” I whisper and kiss his ear.

What was going on in my mind? A lot of confusion.. Whether it's a good idea to ask him tonight. I want to make him happy, somehow. I want to make sure he's mine and save.. But is this a right choice?

We'll see.

“Alright..” He sighs.

I'm nervous.

I leave downstairs, Take a deep breathe. And another one.

Oh my god am I really going to ask him??

I'm even more nervous.

What if he's gonna reject?! What if it's too soon--?

“Where are we going?”

I look behind myself. Pete is so cute and sleepy. He's my baby. He's going to be my future husband... I blush, trying to take this situation as positive as I can.

“...Outside. You'll like it. You have to think about something else, too.”

He walks closer to me and takes my cheek. “Why are you nervous?”

How... The fuck does he know?!

He always knows!

I shake my head and giggle. “I'm not.”

“...Well okay then.”

Peter's pov

I was confused about Harry's nervousness.

He was never nervous. Not even when we were little-- it was hard to see him like that. I sigh. Why can't we make our relationship deeper? It feels not right.

Harry's so weird lately. But now that I get to know he never cheated-- like, this was Elliotʼs fault, that he wanted to split us apart.....

Like Norman did.

I stopped thinking. What if Norman told Elliot to split us apart?

“Pete” Harry grabs my hand and smiles at me. “Let's go.”

I nod.

“Harry, did you ever like.. Think about What your dad did before his death?”

He frowns. It Caught him off guard. “Why are you thinking about something like that?”

We continued walking.

“Well.. You know.. That whole thing with Elliot...”

“..Is over.” he says.

We stop.

I look at him.

“And you don't have to worry about that anymore. Because I'll make sure that you're safe.”

My heart beat is louder. I feel my cheeks heat up.

“... I'll make sure you won't run away.”

My facial expression changes.

What does that mean?

I watch his every move.

He takes my hand. Leads it to his chest and puts it to it, so i felt the heartbeat.

It makes me have butterflies. I stare into his eyes.

He chuckles and gets closer to me, kissing my lips, slowly, putting his forehead to mine.

How much I missed this feeling.

I smile into it, but he still held his hand on his chest.

He pulls out.

I keep smiling. When I open my eyes...

He's down on one knee?

Why?

He bites his lip and flips my hand over, kissing it.

“Pete,”

I immediately cover my mouth. Is this happening?? Is it?? Really?!

My eyes fill with tears.

“Uh.. I'm not gonna lie. Life won't be rosy all the time. It possibly can't be perfect. I know there will be moments when you'll feel like quitting. But thought it all I promise there's one thing that'll never happen. Doubting who you take this journey with.”

I jump up and down, squeezing my hand tighter to my mouth. He's perfect. He's always been the one.

He giggles. “I want to be the only constant through life's crazy ride.
Baby, will you marry me?”

And I am crying. From happiness. This is happening. It's not a dream. It's reality.

I take a few deep breathes. And sniff.

“Yes. Yes, I will marry you.” I whisper and kiss him a lot of times in a row. He holds me. I love being in his arms.

He's right. This is a crazy ride.

And there it is.

We are engaged. I can't wait to tell everyone.

I am finally happier.
