happy birthday. for @holypatronus​

        ‘ happy birthday ! ‘ percy exclaims, walking into his favorite local flower shop to wish his favorite local flower boy a very happy birthday. he’s carrying a gigantic bouquet of balloons, more than a few personalized with alfie’s name for good measure. what kind of man would percy be if he didn’t go above and beyond at all times, even when it was sometimes unnecessary? in the other hand, however, he’s of COURSE carrying a little bouquet of alfie’s favorite flowers—peonies. ‘ i had no idea whether or not your lack of a sweet tooth made an exception for birthdays, so instead you’ll have to settle for a homemade dinner, i’ll be making the one thing i know how to cook; truffle macaroni and cheese. ‘

❖ ——   "there isn’t anyone forcing you to stay,” he says, arms crossed over his chest. they’ve had this argument a million times, but percy has never been this upset. “if it’s too much for you to handle, you don’t have to be here. you don’t have to be with me.” the thing is, if percy was in the same situation, he can’t be certain that he wouldn’t feel the same way as his significant other, irritated and trapped, someone photographing and reporting on their every move. “you knew what you were signing up for when you got involved with me, i told you. i warned you.”
