The air at night always felt cleaner than the air during the day. All the people were inside, fewer cars were passing, less gas flowing throughout the air. The stars were prettier at night as well. The darkness that some people took as a sign to go to sleep, some people took as a sign to explore. Everything was just better at night, the cool breeze that wasn't cold enough to require a jacket but wasn't warm enough to not shiver a little and yet it was still enjoyable.
Though, the nights felt the best with him. Currently, you both were sitting on a blanket, spread across the wet grass of a park. You both held a small mesh bag filled with randomly colored and sized rocks. Some were smooth and large and some were ridged, cracked, and small. Jean wasn't quite as passionate about rocks as you are but he still enjoyed the way your face lit up at the small discoveries. Everytime you grabbed a rock you would grab the plastic water bottle beside you and pour a small amount of the liquid over the rocks. Rinsing the dirt off in attempts to keep the bags clean.
You finally grabbed a purple ish rock, it was broken in half but you couldn't seem to find the other half in the darkness so you quickly rinsed the rock but a few droplets of water dripped onto your shoe. You silently groaned as the water made your sock slightly wet.
"Not it feels weird." you say as you tried rubbing the water away.
Jean just laughed slightly at you. He pulled his backpack onto his lap digging through it, searching as if he could see clearly.
"Here." he says handing you a new pair of socks.
Jean was always prepared, as you guys hung out more and more, he slowly started collecting things of your interest. All of your favorite snacks could be found in the front pocket of his backpack, he knew you easily got sick so he always packed a small pack of tissues, he knew that you hated wet fabric so he always packed an extra pair of socks.
You quickly switched your socks and pulled your shoes back on. Then you flopped back on your back as you were finally tired of collecting rocks. Though, the darkness wasn't quite as interesting without someone talking to you so you lifted your eyes, fixating them on the small sparkles in the sky, reminding you of glitter. Jean pulled himself back onto the blanket and layer next to you, staring at the same sky as you.
"It's pretty." you mumbled out as you held the bag of rocks tightly in your hand.
"Just like you." he whispered out but it came out as a muffle, but you still heard it enough to be grossed out by the cheesy affection.
"Yuck.." you laugh in response to his compliment.
But the only response you received was a squeeze to your hand and a small chuckle.
"You're my favorite star." he whispers. "You shine brighter than all of them, I'm proud of you. Thank you for always being there for me."
