Deena's POV

"Deena there's one more thing"

I looked at him with confusion and I felt my nerves begin to kick in harder than they were, if that's even possible.

"What is it?" I asked, shifting my body towards him a little bit. He took his hand and scratched the back of his neck before slowly getting up. I moved so I could follow his actions but I was stopped by his hands on my shoulders, gently pushing me back down. "Hey!"

"Stay here I'll be right back, and put this on" he laughed at me and handed me a blindfold. What the fuck is he doing. "It'll be two seconds I promise"

He kissed the top of my head, making me go a deep shade of red as his footsteps faded away. Luckily he's colorblind so even if he looked, he wouldn't have seen anything. It was nice and cool as I sat on the blankets, and we were in an area where bugs weren't common so he was smart on that part. Right before my patience was getting thin I heard shuffling and a pause, the sound of metal, the more footsteps coming towards me.

"Okay give me your hand" George softly took my hand in his and helped me up, slowly walking me to where I'm assuming is at the edge of the pallet area. He put his other arm around my waist and slowly sat me down onto a tiny chair, which I guess he also grabbed. He let go of my waist but never my hand as we sat down. Take that back. He let go of my hand so he could hold it with his left hand. I heard something move before he slowly took off my blindfold with his now free hand. I kept my eyes closed after it was off. I'm just super nervous. I mean what could it be?

"Love" he chuckled softly. Still not used to that name. "open your eyes"

"O-okay" I blinked a few times and opened them to see a solid black telescope in front of me. It was huge. My left hand flew to my mouth in shock. "Wha? Wha what?"

"I got it for you" he laughed at my stuttering and I looked at him with my eyes slowly watering, with happy tears of course. "Hey hey hey you don't have to cry"

"But you bought me this, and It's not even my birthday anymore that passed" I took a deep breath in and still was switching my gaze to the telescope and George.

"I know but you deserve it, Deena" I smiled genuinely at me, wiping my tears off my cheeks. "You really think I'd only let you see stars from this far away?"

"Stop" I felt more tears come because of his words and laughed at myself and him. "Why am I crying over your cheesy quotes oh my fucking god"

"Hey what can I say" he laughed with me and I finally stopped crying. I hugged him tightly and we stayed like that for a few minutes. "Are you gonna.. ya know?"

"Oh shit! Yeah" I laughed and turns it so I could look down into it. "Now it makes sense why you picked the only spot with an opening"

"Duh" I let go of his hand to adjust the settings and look into it finally. He placed his hand on my lower back, contently watching me.

"Holy shiii" I dragged out the word with how beautiful it looked "I can see so many more stars now woah!" He laughed at me and I swatted my hand at him to shut him up.

"What?!" He acted confused but continued to laugh.

"You're ruining the moment!" I looked away to look at him and laughed at him, shoving him playfully. "Just shush"

"Fine" he held in a laugh and I went back to look through the telescope.

"The moon looks crazy! Look" I smiled and looked away, catching George with a soft smile staring at me. He nodded, turning a shade of red. I let him lean over and look at it, his mouth opening in shock. "Right?"
