Haruto's POV (lol Haruto's never ending pov)

I saw someone sitting on the floor but I wasn't sure if it was him. So I walked closer and my eyes started to adjust with the darkness and I can now recognise the person here. Thankfully it was him.

"Will you try to jump again?" He said while I was sitting beside him.

"Hell no," I laughed in response. "I'm actually hoping to find you here."

"Why? Do you need something? Is there still bothering you?" He looked at me and I can see that he is worried while he said those words.

"No," I said in response while shaking my head. I heard him sigh in relief, was he that worried? I wondered. I gave give him smile to assure him that I'm fine or at least I'm trying to be. And he smiled back.

"I just want to ask your name because I didn't have a chance last night, you run too fast and maybe ask you if I can treat you out as a thank you" why am I a little bit nervous, I'm just asking his name. Lol Haruto get a grip of yourself.

With a smile on his face and a hand reaching out for a handshake he introduced himself, "My name is Yedam." That is a beautiful and interesting name... And maybe it is also quite familiar, I just can't seem to remember when and where I heard that name.

"My name is Haruto," I stretched out my hand and shake hands with him. His hands are cold, he probably stayed at the rooftop for a while now and it really is quite breezy up here.

"Uhmmmm, can I ask you out for lunch or maybe dinner when your free?" I asked quite nervously. I really just want to thank him for stopping my idiocy.

"I'm sorry, I'm actually pretty busy during the day and around this hours are my only free time. It would be pretty late for dinner. Sorry." He said apologetically and I can see that he is somewhat sad saying no. But I understand I'll just think of something else.

"That's fine, no worries." I said while giving him a smile, trying to lighten up the mood.

And after silence finds its way around us. The kind of silence that isn't deafening, but rather comforting. It isn't awkward or anything. We just enjoyed the stars and the moon that accompanied the both of us. Like last night the skies are clear and we can see the stars shine.

I looked at him and he seems to love the skies so much. Even though it is dark, but our proximity allows me to see the way he looks at the stars.

"Do you love looking at the stars?" I broke the silence, why did I asked an obvious question. I'm internally face palming myself.

He just nodded in response. Now, I have to think of a better conversation starter. But before my brain could even start thinking he started to speak.

"They comfort me and make me feel that I'm not alone." He broke his gaze at the stars to look at me and give me a smile.

"How about you?" He asked while staring at me, waiting for a response.

"To be honest I never paid attention to them. I only gazed at them last night since like forever." It's true I really never paid attention to them. And I am somehow regretful of that because looking at them right now gives me a sense of peace.

"I always wonder why we only pay attention to the beauty around us when we start falling apart?" He said while returning his eyes to the stars.
