"Why are we here again?" Peter asked as he looked around slightly bored.
"We're here to get presents for everyone, come on we're almost done," Harry replied as he kissed Peter on the forehead.
The two of them were shopping for presents for their friends birthdays, they'd already picked up the Skulduggery books set for Mj, and a D.I.Y bouncy ball set for Miles.
Even though the birthdays we're still a few weeks away, Harry thought it would be best to get the presents now, then they wouldn't have to rush and panic later on.
Peter however, just wanted to go home.
"Tell you what, how about we speed this up?" Harry asked, smiling when he saw Peter's interest was piqued.
"You get Gwen's present, I'll get Ned's and we'll meet back here in about fifteen minutes, yeah?" He asked with a smile.
"Then can we go?" Peter asked, eyes lighting up.
"Promise," Harry smiled, holding out his pinkie. Peter grinned and linked his with Harry's before darting off.
Harry smiled, shaking his head at his goofball of a boyfriend.

Peter headed to the art shop, knowing Gwen was always buying new sketchbooks and art supplies. Upon walking into the shop he was met with an array of sketchbooks, paints, pens, pencils, paper, card, glitter, stamps, ink...
Peter was always fascinated by the art shop, the supplies just seemed to go on forever and there was always loads to choose from.
The teen smiled and picked up the sketchbook Gwen always brought, and looked for a pencil that had blue or red lead.
Peter had once asked Gwen why she drew with red or blue lead,
"It's easier to blend when you colour," she had replied with a smile.
Peter didn't see how but nodded anyway.
He picked up some ink colours he knew she was running low on, and a pack of Prisma colour pencils.
Peter carefully placed them on the counter so the cashier could ring them up.
"Are you replenishing your art supplies?" The cashier asked making small talk.
"Oh they're for a friend," Peter replied with a small smile, "her birthday's coming up and she goes through supplies really quick."
"Sounds like the best way to spend your time is you ask me, that'll be twenty-five dollars please."
Peter paid, bid goodbye to the cashier and headed back to meet Harry.

Harry entered the Lego shop and was met with shelves upon shelves of Lego sets. There was Star-wars, Harry Potter, Lego city, Indiana Jones, Jurassic world, Nexo Knights, Ninjago, Minecraft and a million more. He let out a breath and thought 'let's do this'.
The teen looked over all the sets and decided on a BB8, and Raptor pen set from Jurassic world. Remembering how Ned said he'd love his own,
"But think about it, your own Raptor pen with real Raptors," Ned had said excitedly, before Peter joined in.
Harry smiled at the memory and picked up an extra raptor.
He took the items to the counter, paid and bid the cashier goodbye. After grabbing his bags Harry headed to one more shop.

Peter had been waiting for Harry for ten minutes and was about to call him when he saw the other teen walking over.
"Hey, you ready to go?" Harry asked smiling as Peter nodded and linked their hands.
"So what you get for Ned?" Peter asked, nodding approvingly when Harry told him.
"What about Gwen, what you get?" Harry asked, and Peter explained.
"Think she'll like them?" Peter asked.
"She'll love them gorgeous," Harry smiled again kissing Peter's cheek, as the smaller teen flushed slightly at the pet name.

As they walked to the car, Harry watched Peter's eyes light up as he talked.
It was in that moment that Harry knew he'd be sliding the ring, that was snugly in his pocket, onto Peter's finger very soon.
