Hidekaz Himaruya and APH equals OTP. Any errors would love to be corrected. Sorry it's so short, but I just found out and I had to write something for this wonderful day!
For Real
Somewhere, someone suggested that things needed to change. August 2006, someone said that things were outdated.
And no one tells Sweden they're outdated.
Sveriges riksdag, which translates literally to The National Diet of Sweden. Is the national legislative assembly of Sweden voted on April, to change things for the better.
And now Tino doesn't know what to say. Berwald had said it so many times before, "I love you." in that grunt speak before. Cuddles, calls him his wife, and clings to him as if they were north and south magnets. Tino knew he meant it every time. The same words would echo from his mouth with a smile. But now, as those words came out...
"'ill ya be m' 'ife?"
This time, he'll say it.
Because this time, he knows Berwald means it.
No one will call him a hypocrite.
But he's scared, because he knows what his country would do if he says yes.
So he's the hypocrite now.
Berwald was looking down at him now, his expression the softest he's ever seen. Eyes ever strong and intimidating, but the message held clear.
He wants him.
"Care to take a rain check?" He wanted to smile, but found it hard to when he was trying to keep the tears back.
"I'll w'it f'r y'." He saw Berwald grit his teeth, holding back the hurt and hugged him.
"As will I." Tino rubbed his face into his chest. "Forever and ever and ever."
On April first, the votes went in like this: Absent, 50. Abstain, 16. No, 22. And yes, 261. So May 1st, 2009, Sweden will be the seventh country to allow same sex marriage nationwide! I'm so proud of you guys!
Unfortunately, Finland only has Civil unions and registered partnerships right now. But hopefully not for too much longer!
When that day comes, I'll be sure to write a true fic of awesomeness.
