   "I hope in the future I can see your smile more often" you said to yourself. You've been in a relationship with Asahi for almost 6 months now and both of you are still new to this whole dating thing. You knew he wasn't the type to show a lot of affection and you didn't mind it that much at first. You still craved his attention and love, of course, you just didn't want to force him into doing something he isn't comfortable with. So you just went with it, at the end of the day, being by his side was enough for your heart to melt like butter and beat faster than your body can handle.

   "Are you alright, Y/n?" said your boyfriend,  Asahi, while tapping your shoulder. You shook your head and left your thoughts flying aimlessly in your mind."Wha- Oh yeah,  I'm good. Sorry." you smiled and nodded your head, in a way to assure him everything's fine. He was composing a song and usually he'd let you hear it first, but this time it was different. Whenever you'd try to listen to a little bit of it he'd get mad at you and not talk to you for the next hour. That was fine, you thought, that's just how he's like... Or was it fine? Why was he acting so cold to you these past few weeks? What could've you possibly done to him to make him act like that? Does he not love you anymore?

   How can you even think about stuff like that? Of course he loves you, he is your boyfriend, your beam of light, your safe place, your hope, and the only good thing in your miserable life. Oh, yeah, your life...It wasn't so great. Let's be honest actually, it was horrible. Your father passed away a year ago and your mother wasn't exactly the mum of the century.  She'd always make you feel like you are nothing and if she had a chance to bring you to tears she'd take it without hesitation. That's why you often snuck out of your house late at night and go to the beach with your boyfriend. Especially after a big fight with your mum, it kinda felt therapeutic to bury your feet in the sand and hold Asahi's soft hands in yours.


   Intimate moments like these brought you a little peace. Just you and him. The both of you sitting on the sand, looking at the stars in silence. It wasn't an awkward kind of silence though,  it was comfortable. You felt safe with him. You felt like you belong. You felt loved for real. Asahi could just look at you and make you feel some type of way. And in those rare moments when he smiled, you could feel your cheeks burn and your heart melt slowly just because of him curving the ends of his lips in this beautiful and graceful way. He may not be perfect,  but he was perfect in your full of worries eyes. Even in moments like these, you couldn't help yourself but think how you may not be able to see this smile one day...

   You had messaged Asahi the next morning, hoping he'd answer this time, but you were left on seen again. "He's probably just really busy today, too". You left your house with this on your mind. You didn't want to think anything else about it, that was better for your already fragile heart. You weren't in a position to handle another heartbreak.
   Your day went by without even talking to your "boyfriend" at school. Whenever you'd get close to him he'd run in the other position, not even looking back at you. At the end of the day you just felt even more miserable than before because you knew you had to go back to your house and back to your mum.

  You hadn't even taken off your shoes when your mother started yelling at you for no apparent reason. You didn't have the strength to talk back so you just ran into your room with your eyes fludded with tears. Your thoughts were all over the place and your heart was breaking in a million pieces with each passing second. You locked the door behind you and broke down on the cold wooden floor. You couldn't take in anymore pain. Your chest felt like it could explode any minute as you struggle to gasp for air. Suddenly,  in the darkness of your loneliness, your phone light up and a notification popped up."From Asahi?" You immediately unlocked your phone and saw a few short but somehow soothing messages - "Our place" "10 minutes" "I have something for you" "I'm sorry"

  
   Without hesitation you jumped out of your window and ran straight to the place where you two would have your most meaningful and heartwarming moments - the beach. You were already out of breath, but you didn't stop running.  You couldn't wait to see his beautiful face, even if it's gonna be for the last time. You didn't know what the messages meant, you just knew that he thought of you and that was enough.
    After a while, you saw a dark figure sitting on the sand. You instantly knew that it was him."Asahi!" you screamed and ran into his arms, burying your face in the crook of his neck. Tears started falling down your face again but you didn't care. All that matters was that he hugged you back tightly, indicating he'll keep you safe forever.

   Asahi cupped your face, wiping away your tears."Why are you crying now? How can I-" "Smile" You looked up at him "I just need to see you smile, that's all I need". It took him a few seconds to get out of the magic of your soft, yet tired voice. He looked straight into your eyes and smiled. His smile was even brighter than all of the stars in the dark night sky. He was shining. He was your star. The only star you needed in your life.
   "I love you." That was the first time you ever said this to him and you didn't expect him to say it back to you now. Quite honestly, you didn't care about it - his smile was enough.
   "I love you, too."  He said, smiling even bigger than before. Before he leaned to kiss your plump lips he gave you a USB "Happy anniversary princess,  I'm sorry it took me this long to kiss you."⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀
