++ GEORGE RUSSELL

George and Alex have been in a secret relationship for almost 7 years, and in a couple of days, it will be a memorable date. They have done almost everything together, from flying in an airplane to supporting each other when they didn't have a satisfactory result on the track. Cooking has been a source of fun and comfort.
This evening on summer break was special, like all the others — Alex could finally breathe and relax after all the fuss with the races and other things that took a backseat, and George, no less exhausted, could devote all his time to himself and his beloved. They decided to make Thai chicken rice noodles, a simple dish, but Alex loved it dearly, and for dessert, George suggested scone from British cuisine.
Of course, they would tell each other stories from their childhood about these dishes for the hundredth time, as if they were hearing them for the first time, but it still brought comfort to both of them. During their meal of rice noodles, George looked away for a moment, then back at Alex, who squinted at him and asked, "Is something wrong?" to which George replied, "I was just thinking... Maybe we should tell people about us on our seventh anniversary?"
