from the secret married teachers au (more than one sentence but this is cute)
They’d started buying each other cards for big events five months into their relationship, when Harry directed a collegiate play for his junior English seminar. Louis had been swamped with grad school work and Harry didn’t think he’d attend, but then he’d looked into the audience at the close of the show and seen Louis standing front and center, clapping louder than everyone. He’d presented him with a congratulations card, one that was the ugliest card Harry had ever seen.
“It’s all they had left,” Louis said sheepishly, looking about ten years younger than his actual twenty three.
“I love it,” Harry grinned. “I love you.”
“Yeah,” Harry said, suddenly giddy. “I love you and this dumb card.”
“Forget the dumb card, I’m in love with you.”
Six years later, they’re still in a competition to see who can buy each other the ugliest congratulations card. Harry’s pretty sure he’s got it in the bag this year.
