Birthday twins - Marc-André Fleury

Y/N's POV

I woke up feeling soft kisses being planted on my cheek and neck, the sun hitting my face from the curtains being open.
I opened my eyes and looked up, seeing Marc-André smile warmly at me.

"Good morning, sleepy head" he said.

"Hey" I answered, laughing at the nickname he gave me.

"Happy birthday!" he said excitedly.

"Thanks. Happy birthday, Flower"

Marc-André and I have been dating for 6 years now, but it doesn't stop us from still laughing about our shared birthday.
I mean, what are the chances? Plus, our birthday is not common. Actually pretty rare.

"Breakfast is ready. Hurry up, I'm starving!"

"Alright, just give me a minute" I smiled watching him almost running down the stairs to the kitchen.

I put on my favorite pair of jeans and a plain white t-shirt, covering it with a black hoodie. I then brushed my teeth and made sure my hair didn't look too crazy.

"Oh my God, it's so long! What are you doing? I'm hungry" I heard Flower shout from downstairs.

I laughed loudly at his behavior before screaming back. "You're so impatient!"

"I'm here" I said when I finally reached the kitchen. "Wow! When did you have the time to do all of that?" I asked seeing the big amount of food on the table.

"I guess I was too excited for our birthday cause when I woke up at like 6, I couldn't sleep anymore. So I thought I could make a little breakfast."

"Little? God, Flower you're crazy. We could have leftovers from this for at least a week!"

"A simple thank you would've been enough" he said playfully, a smile glued on his face. "Let's just eat, ok?"

"Of course" I replied.

We spent a good hour chatting and eating pancakes, bacon, eggs, sausages, toasts... Pratically every existant breakfast food.
Breakfast that was delicious, by the way.

"You're not eating anymore?"

"Oh come on, Flower, I'm gonna explode." I rolled my eyes jokingly.

"I know, babe, I'm just kidding. I'm not hungry anymore either." He laughed.

"Thanks for the breakfast. It was absolutely delicious." I thanked him.

"It's no problem, babe."

He pressed a kiss on my lips and picked up our empty plates.
We cleaned up everything and put the leftovers in the fridge.
I then put on some nice music to make the room less silent.

I started singing and dancing to Sexy and I Know it by LMFAO, wich made both Flower and I laugh.
He happily joined me and we just danced and sang to random songs in the kitchen until we were out of breath from laughing so much, completely exhausted.

He sat on the couch, and patted his thigh for me to come and sit in his lap.
I did so and kissed him on the lips, still laughing at the goofs we were being.

"I have something for you" he said calmly.

He picked up a wrapped gift from under the end table and placed it in my hand.

"Here's your first present"

"Oh.. thanks, Flower. You didn't have to"

He smiled softly and kissed my temple, waiting for me to open the present.

I untied the ribban and unwrapped the small black box that fit perfectly in the palm of my hand.
I opened it and saw a small but beautiful diamond ring.
I looked up at him in disbelief.

"It's a promise ring"

I smiled and looked back at the ring.

"I really, really appreciate being around you and I for sure want it to be this way forever. And before asking you to marry me, I wanted to promise my love to you for the rest of my life by giving you that ring." he confessed.

"Oh, Marc..." I said, not knowing how to react.

"I know it's only jewelry, and it will never be able to fully describe how much I love you, but-"

"It's perfect, Marc" I interrupted him.

"Do you like it?" he asked, hesitant.

"I love it!" I immediatly answered, putting it on my finger.

"Glad to hear that" he said, relieved.

"Thank you so much, Flower! It's beautiful" I kissed him.
"And I love you too!" I added quickly, a few tears of joy slipping from my eyes.

"Don't cry, baby!" he pulled me closer to him, wrapping his arms around me.

"Happy birthday" he wished me after a few moments.

"Happy birthday, birthday twin!" I said, admiring the promise ring he had just given me.
