#i have transcended this mortal plane after meditating deeply upon auston's embarrassed smile when he says he couldn't let mitch go

Wow smiley Auston on his and Mitch's wedding day, tying Mitch's bow-tie, carrying mitch over the threshold

MITCH POUTING FOR KISSES WOW

LISTEN YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT but how dare you 

“what the fuck,” mitch says, arms around auston’s neck. “put me down, dude.”

“can’t.” auston doesn’t know if he’ll ever stop smiling. they’re married. it’s real. there’s a ring on his finger right now that matches the ring on mitch’s, and there’s champagne in his veins, and mitch is so fucking light in his arms. 

“don’t do it,” mitch says, but his laughter echoes off the hotel hallway walls. “let me go.”

three more steps and they’re at their door. a fucking newlywed suite, and all the guys had whooped and wolf-whistled as they left the reception. they’re still young, maybe too young if you listen to the wrong people, but auston’s known since day one. mitch is the only one for him. 

auston leans against the door frame and mitch clings tighter, despite his bubbling protests snatched between laughing fits. little tears collect in the corner of mitch’s eyes from laughing so hard as auston slots the key card into place. he grips mitch’s thighs and waist tighter, hitching him closer.

this is it. this is some true love shit. 

auston shakes his head and grins. he’s probably gazing into mitch’s blue eyes like a fucking fool, but he doesn’t give any fucks. mitch grins back, scratches his nails over the back of auston’s neck, and auston steps over the threshold. they’re gonna be forever.

“i can’t let you go, man.”
