"So... Are you liking the film?" I asked Logan, looking up at him. We where both sitting on the couch of Logan's country house, and he had agreed to watch an anime film, You Name. It was a bit cheesy and all that, but it's also a clasic, so if my goal is to get Logan into the world of anime, I had to show him this one.

"Yes, it's nice. The plot of the story is interesting, and the animation is very well done" Logan answered, looking back at me.

"Alrigh then, how are the characters called?" I asked back, as I crossed my arms.

"Uh... They are- the girl and the boy?" Logan replied, and I laughed at his tone, "I'm sorry! I find it hard to remember these japanese names. They talk too fast for me to remember the way the names sound, I'm too bussy trying to read the subtitles and watch the film at the same time."

"Don't worry, don't worry, it's ok. The first time I watched anime I aslo found it hard to remember the names and follow the episode, but you get used to it."

"Alright... I still feel bad, I don't want to dissapoint you. I know how much you like anime, and me not being able to keep up is-"

"Shh," I kissed Logan, and he stopped talking, "I said it's alrigh Lo. It's very sweet you agreed on watching it with me anyways, considering the lack of logic that is present on this film,"

"ok..." Logan sighed, with a cute, small, adorable little smile on his lips, "I wanna see how it ends though, I've gotten curious,"

"Great then, let's put it back on-" I started, but my sight momentarely shifted to the window, "Hey look! The sky is starting to turn orange! Let's go out to see the sunset!" I exclaimed, jumping from the couch."

"Let's go," Logan also stood up, "Wait Virge,"

"What's wrong?" I asked, turning to look at my boyfriend

"Would you rather to go the roof of the house of the roof of the car?" He asked.

"Um... Car. If either of us falls asleep on the roof of the house, we could fall, and if we fall we die. In the roof of the car there's a smaller chance of damage," I said.

"Ok then. You go outside, I'll go get the snacks and the blanket."

"Nope. I'll bring the blanket. It's mine, therefore my responsability," I grabbed my cat blanket and walked towards the door.

"In that case I'll just get the snaks," Logan went towards the kitchen, while I got to the front door and opened it.

I wasn't expecting the view that awaited me outside the house. The open fields extended as far as the eye could see, covering everything with the green, brown and yellow grass. Logan's blue car was a few metters away, and the sun reflected on it, giving it a golden shine. But the best part was the sky.

A symphony of colours painted the sky, starting off bright orange in the horizon, slowly blending and changing into yellow, then blue, and finally, if you looked in the oposite direction, you could see the dark night sky with a few emerging stars. The clouds made it all even more magical. With the reflection of the light, they looked bright pink, and gave it all a dream atmosphere. I gasped, unused to the beauty of this place, specially considering that I had varely gotten out of the city before.

"It's beautiful, isn't it?" I heard logan say behind me.

"Yes, yes it is. I'm so, so glad that you asked me to come here with you. It's the best decision we've ever made," I added, holding his hand.

"Well, we've both made loads of decisions in our lives, and I think there are ones that have had a much bigger and beneficial impact in our lives," Logan said, staring into the horizon.

"Oh, really? And which decision are you talking about? What's been better than coming here to admire the sky?" I asked, not being able to stop the slight bitterness in my voice.

"In my opinion," Logan started, looking straight at me in the eye, "The best decision I've ever made was bringing you to that starbucks cafe and asking you to be my boyfriend" 

"Awww Logan," I smiled. He bent down and gave me a soft kiss on the forehead, "Come on," I added, "I race you to the top of the car!"

I ran towards the car and jumped to the roof.

"Virgil, be careful!" Logan jogged behind me, "I don't want you to break the windows!"

"Don't sweat it, I know what I'm doing," I replied, already in the roof, "You owe me a marshmallow now."

"First of all," Logan started, as he carefully climbed to the trunk of the car, "We didn't make any bet, therefore, I don't owe you anything. Second of all, how did you learn to climb and jump like that?"

"As a kid I just loved climbing stuff. Trees, benches, walls, furniture... I've always loved seeing things from above. It gives me a strange feeling of power," I explained

"Like a cat," Logan added.

"Hey!" I bumped Logan on the shoulder, "Are you gonna start with this again?"

"You have to admit I'm right. Your behaviour is feline like most of the time. You sleep curled up, you like cuddles but hate being touced, you climb stuff, you sleep on the floor... you even hiss at people. You act just like a cat, the sooner you accept it the better."

"You seriously need to stop spending so much time with Patton, he's stransmiting his wholesomeness into you," I jocked.

"And is that a bad thing?" Logan asked.

"No, no it isn't. You are so adorable that I can't even get mad at you."

"Hmmm, I'm glad. Here ya go," Logan put his hand on a plastic bad and got a marshmallow out, "I owed it to you, didn't I?"

"Thanks," I grabbed the marshmallow and shallowed it, barely chewing.


Logan and I watched the sunset go down, until the only light source left was the dim shine of the moon up on the sky. We where so lucky that there wasn't any cloud on the sky tonight, meaning that we wouldn't have any issue seeing the meteor shower. I was resting my head on Logan's shoulder, both of us covered by my blanket, the bags with the snaks laying in front of us. Logan was pointing up at the sky, showing me all the constelations he recongiced, as told me their name, and the history behind it. Meanwhile, I stayed there, looking more at him than to the sky, feeling forever gratefull for being here with him. 

I loved the way Logan's eyes shone with the reflection of the thousand of stars, I loved the way he smiled when talking about astrology, and I loved how his whole face changed when we where together. I felt so happy, so calm, so amazing when I was with him. I definetevely was in love.




Let's leave it here, shall we? This is enough analogical in compensation of the lack of it in the first book, isn't it? Or do we want more of it? (I'll give you more i promise)
