You bounced on the balls of your feet in excitement. The planetarium was so big, 2 floors, the bottom had a cafe and waiting room as well as a small space exhibit, the walls had stars and galaxies and some planet shaped lights on the ceiling you looked around happily, this is a first for you. You're eyes shined in joy of being out of the house and doing something different.

G watched as you took it all in, though honestly he was in the same state when he came here to get the tickets. He couldn't help but chuckle at you. You seemed so overjoyed with everything... maybe you found space as interesting as he did.

He'd love to find out.

"We still got 12 minutes befer the show, wanna grab a quick bite ta eat?" He walked up to you, you looked at him then shrugged.

"If you want."

He hums in thought "Actually, I gotta place in mind, we can go afta the show, for now, how 'bout we look around." He gently took your hand and led you around.

You looked at all the exhibits, the milky way, various constellations, even some planets a few light years away that humans may be able to go to, even some that had the same atmosphere as earth and may be able to be populated in the future. The moment his grip loosened on your hand, like a child you ran over to the Neptune display, your favorite planet in the solar system.

You loved the shade of blue. So many people in school loved Saturn, or Jupiter, hell some loved Pluto because it was the odd one out, but you loved Neptune, plus it was your favorite Roman god of the sea.

The display had facts about the planet and so many pictures.

G walked up behind you with a smirk "Your inner nerd is showin doll." He whispered into your ear with a husky tone.

Your body stiffened and you flushed, he has to know what his voice does to you, or he is just being mean.

You nod and step away from the display case and look at him, his sockets held an emotion you couldn't place, he nods the the second floor "Shows 'bout to start, should head up and grab our seats." He turns and heads to the stairs, you quickly follow behind him.

The theater was a circle, there were 8 levels for seating around the projector you two were placed in the 5th row, slowly people filed in, the place would fit about 200-400 people. You talked about normal things as people took their seats.

"So you really are a nerd." He smirks at you and you flush.

"Not my fault, I kept to myself a lot during school, I liked being alone for the most part, I only made a few friends in high school and kept very few after graduating. I focused on studies."

"Guess we got that in common then... loners. To an extent." He shrugged.

"You're a loner too?"

"Yep, though my reasons vary from yours... I'll tell ya some day."

Just as you were about to reply the lights dimmed, the show started.

❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

The show was amazing, so many stars and stories, you and G left with nothing but positivity around you two. He nerded out over the whole thing as you walked off to go grab some dinner.

"I still can't believe she tripped over the fucking wires! Ha the poor thing." he snickered as you shook your head.

"At least try to feel some remorse for her, I am sure she was embarrassed."
