After that night there came a string of 'firsts'. There was there first actual date, on a warm July night, about a week after Harry returned to England for the summer.

There was the first time they had sex, which was in August, after their seventh official date. And then, of course, there was the first time they told somebody about their relationship.

Dougie went to school in England, but they Skyped a lot.

The first time Dougie went to Disneyland in California, was the summer following his first year of college. They weren't that hungry, so Harry bought them one ice cream cone to share.

They were almost down to the cone when Dougie suddenly kissed Harry.

He raised his eyebrows and Dougie grinned. "You had a bit of ice cream right there." He explained, pointing to the corner of his mouth. He leaned over and kissed his boyfriend a second time. This time, it lasted much longer.

The first time Dougie went to Walt Disneyworld in Orlando, Florida, he was twenty-six years old, and Harry was twenty-eight. It was a few months past their eighth anniversary.

Dougie was almost skipping as he, Harry, Danny, Tom and his fiancé Giovanni approached the bag check. Well, Tom was almost skipping, too.

This had been a highly anticipated trip, and although Gio had already been to Disneyworld, no one else had.

Once past the ticket check, Tom whipped out his camera and being taking a million shots of the small garden in front of the entrance, where the flowers were clumped into a formation that read DISNEYWORLD.

Dougie took Harry's hand as they walked into the Magic Kingdom.

It wasn't until the evening that they encountered any problems. Magic Kingdom had its usual scheduled fire display at ten o'clock. The Kingdom was absolutely packed, and finding a proper place to view show wasn't easy. Scratch that. Finding a good place to view it wasn't easy; you could see the fireworks from anyone in the one mile radius.

Harry followed Dougie as the younger man skipped happily on the dark path. They were making their way back to Main Street, where the group planned on standing in front of one of the shops to see the castle and the fireworks.

It started just as they located a good spot.

Giovanni smiled happily (a little exhausted) as they watched, and rested her head on Tom's shoulder.

There was a sudden commotion behind them, but they did not pay attention to it. Harry suddenly turned around, dropping his arm from where he had had it around Dougie's waist. His blue eyes were icy as he stared at a middle-aged man passing by and caught his eyes.

The man shot him a dark look and a sneer and kept walking, pulling a woman and a young boy with him.

Dougie frowned slightly as Harry turned back to watch the fireworks.

Harry simply shrugged and didn't say anything. In truth, the American man had said something extremely rude about them as he passed by. Harry was used to the occasional rude jibe here and there –he and Dougie had been together for nearly eight years, after all –but that didn't mean he was going to tolerate them.

"Hey, Harry," Dougie whispered later, when they were sitting in a ferry on their way back to their resort. "What's wrong?"

"Huh?" He shook his head, "Oh, nothing…"

Dougie didn' look convinced, but he didn't say anything more. It was late and everyone was exhausted.

DOUGIE:

You are twenty-six years old when you go to Disney World for the first time. You are there for seven days. Tom, Gio, and Danny head back to England on the fourth day.

You and Harry go to the Magic Kingdom again and spend most of the day there.

Harry's been looking a bit jumpy since this morning, and you aren't quite sure if it's in a good way or a bad way.

Your name is Dougie Lee Poynter, ad you are a twenty-six year old man with a citizenship in both Britain and the United States. You are sitting on the balcony of a fancy restaurant (that you kinda forgot the name of) and your boyfriend –who also happens to be your best mate –is kneeling down in front of you with a silver ring.

You've lost your voice and you can't seem to find it anywhere. Harry's beginning to look just a little concerned.

"Dougie…?"

SPEAK.

"Hell yeah, mate!" You manage to croak.

A grin spreads across his features and then you're both giggling excitedly and smiling and kissing

–whoops.

Good thing you're outside. You must remain PG; you are in public after all.

Harry slides the ring onto your finger and rests his forehead against yours. His blue eyes twinkle happily in the dark and he whispers, "I love you," and you say it back.

And Harry Judd is nothing if not precise in his planning because just then the fireworks starts in the Magic Kingdom, and you and your fiancée have got a perfect view of it.

"Cause I still believe in Destiny,

That you and I were meant to be

I still wish on the stars as they fall from above

Cause I still believe, believe in love…"
