Button not going underneath header

I have been trying to make a game where the user has to press a button that redirects to the game page.

I am new to HTML/CSS and I want the button to go underneath a header, but the button goes to the side of the header instead.

I've tried using the <br> tag after the header, tried using position:fixed and specifying top and bottom heights (this worked, but for different screen sizes, the button shifted out of place), and I have tried changing display:block but nothing worked.

Here is my code:

h {
  color: rgb(0, 0, 0);
  text-shadow: 1px 2px 5px black;
  text-align: center;
  font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;
  font-size: 30pt;
}

div {
  text-align: center;
  height: 100%;
  width: 100%;
  display: flex;
  position: fixed;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

.button {
  float: left;
  box-shadow: 0 2px 5px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2), 0 2px 5px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.19);
  -webkit-transition-duration: 0.4s;
  /* Safari */
  transition-duration: 0.4s;
  background-color: #97d9f3;
  border-color: rgb(0, 131, 192);
  border-style: solid;
  color: black;
  padding: 15px 32px;
  display: block;
  font-size: 16px;
}

.button:hover {
  background-color: rgb(90, 190, 236);
}

body {
  text-align: center;
  height: 100%;
  width: 100%;
  display: flex;
  position: fixed;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  background-color: #84ceeb;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

Have a great day, thanks for all your help!

When you use flex-direction: column; on a flex-based parent element, the children each become rendered along the y-axis.

h {
  color: rgb(0, 0, 0);
  text-shadow: 1px 2px 5px black;
  text-align: center;
  font-family: 'Times New Roman', Times, serif;
  font-size: 30pt;
}

div {
  text-align: center;
  height: 100%;
  width: 100%;
  display: flex;
  position: fixed;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

.button {
  float: left;
  box-shadow: 0 2px 5px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2), 0 2px 5px 0 rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.19);
  -webkit-transition-duration: 0.4s;
  /* Safari */
  transition-duration: 0.4s;
  background-color: #97d9f3;
  border-color: rgb(0, 131, 192);
  border-style: solid;
  color: black;
  padding: 15px 32px;
  display: block;
  font-size: 16px;
}

.button:hover {
  background-color: rgb(90, 190, 236);
}

body {
  text-align: center;
  height: 100%;
  width: 100%;
  display: flex;
  position: fixed;
  align-items: center;
  justify-content: center;
  background-color: #84ceeb;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  flex-direction: column; /* added */ 
}
