Alfred hurled a rock at Arthur's balcony window. He was beaming with happiness, as tonight was the night he would proclaim his love. The rock bounced on the window and onto the balcony, before falling back to the ground. Alfred could hear a faint sound of footsteps and a click as the balcony door unlocked. Alfred gripped his bouquet of flowers as Arthur emerged onto the balcony, dressed in nothing but a fluffy white robe and rapidly rubbing his arms trying to get some warmth back in them.
"Oh, Romeo!" he mocked. "You almost broke my window."
"Aww c'mon Arthur!" Alfred pouted, "I brought you flowers?" he asked cautiously. Arthur laughed then turned around to go inside, leaving Alfred alone again in the cold night air. He turned around quickly and walked briskly back down to the path he had taken to Arthur's, promising to find an item that was softer than a rock, so he could try again tomorrow night.
"And where do you think you're going?"
Alfred spun on the spot and turned to see Arthur standing out of breath with his arms crossed still wearing only his bathrobe but with a pair of sandals. A huge goofy grin crossed Alfred's face as he ran to the man, giving him in a bone-crushing hug of joy.
"Ouch. Git. Put me down." Arthur muttered blushing, as he was swung around. Alfred let him go, only to drop down on one knee holding the bouquet out as if presenting a sword. Arthur raised an eyebrow.
"Mr. Beautiful. Will you please accept these flowers and my love so we can go back inside and be happy and maybe cuddle by a fire or something? Because it is freezing out here and you are in a bathrobe and flip-flops."
Arthur stood silently for a moment, considering his options, before smiling and bowing as he took the roses.
"I accept. Now lets head inside."
