Stars
(Emil's P.O.V)
So, the next town over, had a really nice stargazing observatory.
The moment we got there, Leon didn't realize how long the line would take.
It took forever, but at least we had time to chat.
"Wow..." I mumbled out, letting my eyes feast on the sight.
I paid for our tickets, even though Leon insisted that he'd pay. But, its not fair that he always pays for my stuff, so... I have to make it up to him.
There were lots of images about stars on the first level.
"Wow indeed... Emil, let's like, hold hands." Leon said, reaching for my hand.
"Well... Alright"
Our hands clasped together, and we exchanged warmth.
It's a nice feeling.
"Hold on, let's like, take a selfie." He pulls out his phone, and takes out a selfie stick.
It's to be expected...
"Smile~"
He puts put the peace sign, and I smile as well.
"This is like, a nice pic. What do you think?"
He shows me the photo.
It was alright. Not too blurry or dark.
But the angle makes it look like we're really in space.
"Alright, let's like, actually walk around."
We held onto each other's hands, and walked around the observatory.
There were really neat facts about stars...
And they were beautiful.
I really liked the visual displays too, and the cool artifacts with each probe.
By the time we knew it, it was really late, and we took a lot of selfies.
We had reached the third floor, and there lays a gigantic telescope.
The circular roof opened up, just enough for us to see the stars.
"Mommy, mommy!! I see a shooting star!!!" A little girl beside me said, and once everyone saw it they made a wish.
I made one too of course.
... I want to be with Leon forever.
No matter what. I'll be with him.
"Emil..." He leaned in towards me, lips slightly parted.
I got the signal, and tilted my head to the right, leaning towards him back.
He just keeps getting better and better at kissing...
"Leon, what did you wish for?"
"Hmm... Not telling you~ Besides, if I did, it wouldn't like, come true!"
I giggled.
"Emil, count the stars. That's how I like, much I love you."
I couldn't help but have my cheeks heat up. Luckily it was dark, so he couldn't have seen it.
Plus, his attention was focused on the sky.
... Leon has a way with words.
"Hey, Leon..."
"Yeah?"
"Let's make a promise... To never leave each other."
"... Well, that's going to be like, a hard promise. But, I'll try."
I'm not sure what he meant by 'hard promise'.
Is he... Not satisfied with me?
Ugh, I'm thinking too much. It'll lead to depressing thoughts. I swear I saw Kiku, Mei and... Elizabeta for a bit, but that's probably my imagination.
We arrived home at 11:00.
That's passed my curfew... By an hour.
I had my phone on silent, and when I checked my phone... 53 missed calls. All from Lukas.
Honestly... We're grown up now.
He doesn't have to worry about me so much. Even then... He's still family.
I anxiously opened the door, hoping that I could sneak up to my room without being caught.
That didn't happen though.
The moment I opened the door, Lukas ran up to me, and hugged me.
He was tear-stained.
"EMIL WHERE WERE YOU!? Why didn't you pick up? I was worried, I thought you were gone, I was about to call the police! Who were you with? Are you okay?" He was asking a lot of questions like a flood just poured out.
"... My phone was on silent. Sorry, Lukas..." I mumbled.
"Emil, you gave me a heart attack."
"You really did, Emil. He wouldn't stop crying for a while." Chimed in Mathias.
"Sorry... I thought I left a note." I said, pointing to the fridge.
Hah... My beloved fridge.
"Emil. You are so grounded." Said Lukas, looking away.
"I really did leave a note!!"
"You have no idea how worried I was."
"Lukas, you don't have to be so overprotective of me. I'm fine.
I can protect myself. We're not little kids anymore."
"Emil. You'll never understand."
"But-"
"We're done for now. Let's continue this tomorrow."
... I'm in big trouble.
