"Marry you?" Percy's voice was a high pitched squeak and he found himself blushing slightly as he pulled away to look at the brunette.

Oliver's face was a mixture of hope and fear, he was scared of rejection but he needed Percy to accept him. Oliver watched Percy blink at him for a moment, they'd been together for 13 and a half years, sworn all that time that they didn't need two pieces of metal to prove their love and yet now Oliver was asking.

"What brought this on, Ol?" Without giving him chance to reply, Percy added "We won't ever be like a heterosexual couple".

Oliver was on his knees in front of Percy in seconds and he wondered how the 30 year old could stand to kneel like that. His hands were drawn into Oliver's larger ones and he found himself staring into warm brown eyes, emotions moving through them.

"But there's a new law, Perce. It's going to be passed soon, and then we can get married, any time after the 21st of December"

"But would we really be like a man and woman couple?"

"In some respects. We wouldn't be seen as the same sort of married couple but you'd be down as my partner so if anything ever happened to me, you'd get everything, it wouldn't go to my parents"

"Oliver, is that why you're doing this?"

"What? no! I'm asking you because I love you. If it means I can ensure you'll be well looked after in the future if I'm gone then that's a bonus" Oliver smiled and Percy looked somewhat defeated for a moment as he replied.

"But I don't want a future if you're not in it" His tone was whiney and pleading, gaining a chuckle from the brunette.

"Then say yes, say you'll marry me, you sod" Oliver looked a little unsure despite the smile and Percy found that even if he wanted to say no, he couldn't turn down the handsome man before him. His arms flew out, wrapping around the man's neck and pulling him closer, lips moving over tanned skin for at least a minute before he pulled away grinning.

"Yes, I'll marry you, Sod" Oliver picked the red head up, arms tightly around the man's waist whilst freckled arms were around his own neck. The pair laughed and Oliver swung them round, loosing his footing after a moment and falling backwards, onto the couch. They laughed together, a pile of limbs, freckles and heaving chests before they managed to calm themselves.

"I love you, Mister Weasley" Oliver grinned, pressing his lips to Percy's, whom, after the kiss looked a little affronted.

"It's Mister Wood to you.. if that's alright" He added the last part hurriedly, blushing slightly as Oliver look at him.

"Wood? Don't you want to keep your name? I was all ready to take it"

"I thought you'd want to keep yours.. have someone in the Wood Family to be all over you"

Oliver smiled sadly at Percy's words. His father only talked to him because he was the quidditch star and his mother was heartbroken that she wouldn't get grandchildren.

"I'd rather not take Wood, not with the way my family have been.. Unless you want to take it"

Percy curled himself up against Oliver, the two shifting into a comfortable position that existed of Oliver's head propped on a pillow against one arm of the sofa, his feet hanging over the other side and Percy sprawled across him.

"how about we compromise and take both?"

Oliver's brow quirked "Both? as in Weasley-Wood?"

"Or Wood-Weasley" Percy chuckled as Oliver shook his head.

"No, Weasley-Wood sounds better, Perce. I'll take whatever, as long as I'm yours"

"Anyone ever told you that you're corny?"

"Not recently, Perce"

"Then may I be the first. You're corny"

"But you love me that way" Oliver winked and with surprising speed had Percy in his arms, trotting off towards the bedroom for a nice long celebration, leaving the ever playing radio forgotten
