Harry's pov :
I woke up that morning to y/n's lips pressing against my jaw.
"Happy birthday" she said happily when she realised I was awake.
"Thanks babe" I smiled, pulling her onto my chest. We cuddled for a while before y/n began to get up.
"Hey hey don't go" I said, I wanted to stay with her longer, I always did.
"Just wait" She said grinning and getting out of bed to put on her dressing gown and tying back her hair.
I waited in bed for a while, replying to the happy birthday messages from my friends and family. As I began to get impatient waiting for y/n, I heard footsteps slowly coming up the stairs and to the bedroom door. Sitting up slightly, I pretended I didn't know she was there as she peered round the door to see if I was looking.
"Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Harry... happy birthday to you!" y/n sang in a sort of chatty way. She walked over to me, carrying a tray with a mug of tea, a card, pancakes with a candle lit on top of them and a tiny box wrapped in sparkly paper.
"Thank you babe" I said kissing her gently on the lips as she placed the tray on my lap and got back into bed beside me.
I blew out the candle and picked up the card, watching the giddy look on her face as I opened the envelope to reveal the sweetest card with a little bear on the front. I read the message inside, which was printed in her beautiful handwriting in an inky gel pen.
"Aw thank you, I love you" I said, turning to see y/n's sparkling eyes.
"You're welcome baby, here now open your present" She pecked my cheek before quickly pointing to the tiny present on the tray. I picked it up and carefully undid the wrapping paper, feeling bad because it was so nicely wrapped.
"Just rip it open!" y/n squealed, she always got excited around giving presents and it was honestly one of the sweetest things about her.
I opened the paper to see a little black box, inside the box was a ring. A big silver ring with small details and engravings to make it look like it was notting around my finger, but in a way that was so beautifully elegant it looked flawless.
"Look here" y/n pointed at a small date in roman numerals engraved into the side. It was the date of when my first album came out, which also happened to be the same date y/n and I had started dating the year before.
"Y/n it's so perfect, thank you so much baby" I said, giving her a long kiss. She placed the ring on my middle finger, completely matching all my other rings I had on.
"You're welcome, I love you" she beamed, taking a bit of my pancake from my plate.
"Hey! That's mine it's my birthday!" I laughed.
"Better hurry up and eat it then" She dabbed a tiny bit of syrup on my nose as I began to eat my breakfast.
Your pov :
That evening, Harry wore a floral patterned suit, complete with sparkles and such a range of bright colours. He looked incredible as he talked to all the guests, moving the curl which kept flopping down from his head out of his eyes every so often.
I watched as he showed each one of his friends and family the ring I had brought him, making sure he told them it was from me. Usually, he wasn't the type of person to show off or brag, but it wasn't so much bragging, he just wanted everyone to know how much he loved what I had got for him. Which was why I preferred to stay back and watch, being the shy person I am.
"Amazing party y/n!" said a voice from behind me. I turned, there were the rest of the band smiling in my direction. It was always so lovely to see them all, supporting each other and having fun together.
"I'm so glad you could make it!" I said, hugging each one of them.
"I heard you organised it all yourself" Niall said over the loud music.
"Yes, I did most of it, not much really just a bit of planning here and there"
"Well you did a bloody good job" He cheered, pouring himself another drink.
I laughed, before seeing a slightly drunk Harry wobble his way over.
"Baby this is incredible!" He said, his hand on my shoulder. "Why don't you come and talk to some more people with me?"
"It's your day Harry you talk to them, besides it's not really my thing" I replied, as he wrapped his arm around my waist.
"Come onnnn" He said tipsily guiding me towards another group of people.
I watched as he began to introduce me to them, telling them all about the party and the ring, of course. The entire time he kept his arm behind me, playing with my hair which I'd left down, twirling it between his fingers and kissing me on the top of my head every so often. It was small things such as this which made me remember how I loved him so much, the way he knew how I'd get slightly uncomfortable so he'd keep his arm around me to keep me close. And how when I looked at him he was always smiling, keeping conversations flowing and looking over to check on me every once in a while.
The night continued like this, I joined in as Harry danced and sung, but I preferred to watch most of the time. Seeing him at his happiest, as well as slightly drunk, always made me happy too. The way he lit up a room with his laughter never failed to make me smile.
Harry's pov:
"Thank you for coming! Goodnight!" y/n and I waved to the final guest as they left.
"Baby, I can't express enough how amazing the party was tonight, thank you so much for putting me together for me" I said, embracing her and tasting the slight taint of alcohol on her lips.
"Anything for you Haz" She said, smiling up at me. "Now come here I've got one last thing for you." She grabbed my hand and led me to the sofa.
"It's nearly 3am babe my birthdays over" I giggled.
"It's not over until I say it is" She said sitting me down. "Now no peeking" y/n put my hands against my eyes. I saw her pause for a moment as I parted my fingers slightly to tease her.
"Hey! I said no peeking!" She laughed, closing my fingers.
"Okay okay I won't peek" I chuckled, hearing her scurry off to the other end of the room, listening to her opening boxes and moving furniture to find whatever she was looking for.
"Are you rearranging the house or something?" I jokingly asked. I heard her giddily walk back over, and felt something be placed on my lap.
"Here, you can look now" y/n said sitting down next to me.
Slowly, I removed my hands from covering my face and saw a book, a photo book. It was decorated with hearts and bows, titled:
happy birthday harry, i love you, y/n x
I opened the book to reveal photographs of the two of us, and the places we had been, There were days from tour, when we had fallen asleep in the dressing room together. There were days from when we'd been cuddling watching films together. As well as adventures and hikes we'd been on. It was filled with the little notes we'd leave each other on the bedside table when we didn't want to wake them before going to work. There were pressed flowers from picnics and the napkin from our first date together. There was the little ribbon I'd found laying about and wrapped into her ponytail, and a piece of the jigsaw we'd attempted to do but never finished as we'd always somehow end up in fits of laughter.
It was amazing how something as simple as a scrapbook could mean so much to me.
"y/n this is so beautiful, I love you the most thank you gorgeous" I said hugging her and passionately kissing her on the lips.
She placed her hand against my cheek and moved my head closer towards her, kissing me more. Slowly, she felt her hands run down the front of my chest as she climbed to sit on top facing me. I kissed her more as she undid my top button. I pulled her neck closer in towards me as she began to grind her hips into me.
"How about that was your second to last present, and this is the final one?" She asked, briefly breaking the kiss.
"I'm fine with that"
