Chapter 14

Arthur and Francis had started to live together from that day on. Francis had been promoted to the assitent chef and Arthur had started to work at the same restaurant as a waiter. They both worked hard to save up money for England.

It had taken them close to a year, they had ups and downs through it but today was finally the day. They were moving to the heart of London. They would open a teashop together.

Arthur put the last bag in the taxi cab and smiled at Francis who grinned back. "Finally cher~" he said as he pulled him into a hug to cuddle him close. Arthur nodded. "I know." he looked up a the blue eyes and kissed him tenderly.

Before they new it they were both on the plane to Paris, France and from there on they would take the euroline to England. Arthur had fallen asleep in the plane and snuggled onto Francis lovingly. Francis in return wrapped an arm around him and pulled him closer. He smiled and looked outside the windo. Looking at the clothespass by. Then his eyes wandered down to his pocket, before looking back at his sleeping beauty.

Having reached France by 8 pm, Francis held Arthur's hand and lead them outside the airport. "where are we going?"Francis smiled.
"I'm going to show you something." he replied and got a taxi cab to the centre of Paris.

Their plane wouldn't take off in another 4 hours, yet Arthur still worried they wouldn't make it. The taxi stopped in front of the eifel tower. Francis opened the door for him and helped him out of it. Arthur looked up at it. He had the admit, the eifel tower looked amazing at night.

So amazing that hadn't noticed Francis had sunk to one knee. He felt however how he took his hand. Arthur blinked and looked down at the Frenchman. Francis looked back at him. "Arthur…" he started and seeked for something in his pocket. "Would you like to marry me?"
Arthur choked and tears streamed down. This was the best thing that could ever happen to someone. And it was happening to him. He smiled through his tears and replied. "Yes…"
