I look up at the sky, the cold breeze, the silent night.

1 more min. I stand on my roof top waiting for it to happen.

Every once a 1000 years, 3 of the biggest star in the Milky Way lines up and create a beautiful scene.

Their was a myth that my parents would tell me every night about a girl who wanted a friend, when she saw the three stars aligned she closed her eyes and wish for just one friend and when she opened them, a little boy appeared in front of her with big beautiful eyes like stars...

I know it was just a myth but after what happened...What happened to Elliot, I don't know, maybe I could wish. He really loved stars, he would held my hand and we would gaze at the twinkling stars everyday in our spot. He would tell me that we will watch the stars align together.

I stare at the sky, feeling drops coming down my face

5 seconds
What would happened if I just told him about her?

4 seconds
Would he still be here?

3 seconds
Then what would I do?

2 seconds
Will he feel the same way?

I close my eyes

1 seconds
I wish to see him again!

I slowly opened my eyes

I sighed as I look around.

Everything still the same.

"He's gone, Margaret" I said to myself. My tears dried up from the cold air, but more came.

I pushed myself to go back inside.
I got in my room head to my bed.
I look at my ceiling.... stars, it's filled with stars!

I couldn't bother crying and just closed my eyes, all I could see was him, his smile, his eyes, my Elliot.
