Karlies POV

I still sit there, frozen by the fire. The warmth of the fire has left my body, and all I feel is cold. Frozen. My body is stiff, and I can't move.

I stay like that for awhile, unsure of why. Thoughts race through my mind, but at the same time, nothing at all. How can you think everything but nothing at the same time? I definitely was.

I wasn't in doubt of how I felt for Taylor. The words took me by surprise, as Taylor wasn't the one to come off very strong. It always felt like I was the one to make a bold move in our relationship, like when I asked her to be my girlfriend just a few months ago.

But still, I just sat there. It felt entirely too long, but also like no time had passed at the same time. I only broke out of my trance from the sound of a large pop from the fire.

Taylor. Taylor. Oh my gosh, Taylor!

I had to go after her. My body suddenly unfroze and I came back to reality, and the curly haired girl was missing from my side. I knew I had to go find her.

My trek to find Taylor didn't last long, as I found her just along the tree line on the side of the house. There's a trail there that lead out to a lookout, and she looked like she was on her way there.

By the time I caught up, Taylor was down the trail and at the lookout. I jogged halfway down the trail, then started walking as to catch my breath before I get to her, and not to scare her. I find Taylor hunched up into a little ball, wrapped in a blanket looking over the mountains.

The stars were out on full display, and the ground was illuminated by the light of a crescent moon. Taylor's golden hair shined in the moonlight, loose curls sticking out from her head in the wind.

I walk up slowly behind her, and notice that the girl is still silently crying. I hear her sniffles and my heart immediately breaks knowing I'm the one who's causing it. I pause once in within arms reach of her and decide to whisper, "Taylor?"

She doesn't move. I whisper again, but slightly louder, while playing a hand on her shoulder. "Taylor?"

My attempts to not scare the girl were poor, as she jumps anyway and darts her head around to lock eyes with me. They were the eyes of pain. All swollen and puffy. She took her hand up to wipe her eyes then turned around again, ignoring my presence.

To that, I sat down next to her. I was hesitant to touch her at first because I didn't want to overstep, but the language of her hurting body made me have to hold her. I wrapped my arms around her and pulled her down, until she was laying on my chest. She didn't fight back, she just let it happen.

I felt her stiff body in my arms and it broke my heart. Her sniffles had slowed down after a couple minutes of me holding her, but she was still stiff. This was a position that wasn't knew to us. I had held her in this exact way hundreds of times before, but she was so anxious.

We laid like this for a long time, what seemed like hours, honestly. Staring at the stars I finally found the courage to speak.

"You see the stars Taylor?" The girl in my arms gave me no response, but her body loosened, so I knew she was listening.

"They're so beautiful out here..... almost as beautiful as you."

That got the blondes attention. I could now tell she was fully listening to me.

"I've always been so interested in stars. Ever since I was young. It's interesting how in some places you can't see them at all, but in other places you can see the whole universe. And I know this has practical explanations like pollution, but I've always liked to romanticize it a little more. The spaces where stars are out on full display are the places where beautiful things are happening. It's like the universes way of lighting up the sky and creating a beautiful background to beautiful moments. You hardly ever see a sad scene with such beautiful backgrounds in movies."

I reach to grab Taylor's hand, and intertwine our fingers. She doesn't fight back, and even nuzzles into my chest a little more.

"You've always reminded me of the stars you know. How they are so vast and beautiful, and make an impression on everyone who sees them. At the same time they are such a mystery and ever changing."

Taylor releases her hand from mine, and wraps her arm around my body instead. I stay silent for awhile not knowing what to do or say next. But then words start flowing.

"You're really pretty Taylor"

Those simple words make the blonde blush, I can feel it.

"I've never seen someone as beautiful as you. And you're so so gorgeous, I mean it."

At this point I was just rambling, because now I was the one feeling anxious.

I sit up, releasing Taylor from my chest. She sits up too, just looking out at the mountains, avoiding my eye contact.

"Taylor....."

The blonde doesn't move, so I reach out and grab her face, forcing her piecing blue eyes to look deeply into mine.

"I'm sorry I froze up earlier. And I'm sorry I've been rambling. I just get so nervous around you and I'm so flustered right now Taylor, I really don't know what to say I-"

I stop talking for a moment to think about what words to say, and slow down my speaking. I'm still holding Taylor's face in my hands, staring into her deep ocean eyes. Before I start speaking again, I lay a soft kiss on her still lips. She doesn't move into the kiss much, but I didn't expect her to.

"Taylor.... I have never felt the same way about another person on this earth as I feel for you. I've never felt such happiness and contentless with another person by my side. I know I am unsure about a lot of things in life, but there is one thing that I am absolutely sure of. And I'm not sure how this effects the future but that doesn't matter, it only matters about right now. I don't care what people think, I don't care what the media thinks. These feelings are real and you're the only one I really care about. Taylor I-"

Tears start forming in the corners of my eyes, and Taylor's deep blue eyes also seem to be starting to water.

We are surrounded by trees, but the sky is exposed in the small clear we sit in. There is mossy ground, and mountains for miles. They're hard to see with just the moonlight, but  I know they're there. The stars are so vibrant and plenty. The scenery is so surreal.

"Taylor.... I love you too."
