At that moment, the landscape was filled with vibrant colors. What was once a clear blue sky, is now decorated in golden tangerine with a tint of blossom pink. You smiled in content at how you got to finish off your date with Norman, your boyfriend, with such a beautiful sunset. Norman however had something else in mind, and though it was similar to appreciating the view, he was more focused on admiring you. The same colors that were radiated from the sky, reflected from your eyes, even enhancing most of your features, or at least that is how it is in Norman's mind. "Beautiful..." he commented, which caused you to turn your attention towards him.

You took a moment to observe the way he looked, and undoubtedly, his eyes were full of admiration and satisfaction. You then hummed in response, agreeing to his statement. "The sunset is very pretty indeed." you added and looked back at the scenery. You hear him chuckle before he continues, "I meant you." he said in a sweet tone, leaving a kiss on your cheek, making your eyes widen in the process. You then took a quick gaze back at him, only to realize that you would erupt more butterflies in your stomach since he is very charming, even more so when smiling.

He snickers, "Are you blushing?" he raised a brow teasingly, causing you to scoff. "I don't know what you're talking about." You avoided eye contact and he chortled at your cuteness, only responding with a "tch". With that, Norman gave a playful eye roll before he mumbled, "Sweetheart, come here..." he pulled you closer to him, wrapping an arm around your shoulder, and making your head lean on him and his to yours. In return, you held his other hand and intertwined it with yours.

A comfortable silence washed over the two of you. It was so serene that you couldn't help but want to doze off in this position. "I love you..." you uttered before falling into slumber to which of course Norman responded with an "I love you too..." he expressed and kissed your forehead. A minute or so, he hears soft snores from you, making him smile at your figure, "Ahh, looks like sleeping beauty fell asleep." He muttered and positioned the both of you to lay down on the picnic mat that the two of you were currently sitting at. Eventually, he too fell asleep.

If the sunset wasn't beautiful enough, well the glimmering sky full of stars surely is. Although the sky wasn't the first thing you saw the moment your eyes fluttered open, the shimmering brightness of it is brusquely seen in the reflection of the features of the man holding you. You were surprised to have such a lucid view of Norman. You expected it to be quite dim since dusk had ended, but the environment was actually scintillating. You tried to observe more of your surroundings but couldn't move much due to Norman's embrace. This caused you to focus your eyes towards only him.

Oh how peaceful did he look before you. Such a captivating sight to find him hushed and untroubled. His fair skin, so smooth and delicate. His fluffy locks of snow were unimaginably soft. His very own scent was so pleasant to you, it was addicting. From his rosy lips to his stunning eyelashes, everything, even his breathing was just hard not to appreciate. You then brushed away some of his hair and realized how shiny his forehead was, causing you to slightly chuckle before planting a kiss on it.

Your sudden actions resulted in Norman waking up slightly. "Hmm?" he asked sleepily, making you smile brighter. You then decided to pepper his cheeks with soft kisses. From his left cheek, to his right, then his nose. Norman slyly smiled, pulling you closer to him, and pursing his lips into a pout. You giggled at his actions to which he raised a brow. "Do you perhaps want a kiss on the lips?" you questioned even though it was crystal clear that he longed for one. "Is it obvious?" he answered and decided to face you with open eyes.

His crystal blue orbs stared into your own, making you pause for a moment. "But I don't want to give you one on the lips." you teased and he rolled his eyes, "Fine..." he sulked and was about to pull away from the embrace, that's when you wrapped your arm around him, "No, I'm just kidding!" you claimed and he again turned towards you. He still had a serious facade avoiding eye contact whatsoever. And so you tenderly cupped his cheeks, grinning softly, which caught his attention.

It started off as a soft and sweet short peck on the lips. An ephemeral moment that would have lasted longer if chosen to. Norman was so enchanted that he couldn't help but feel thrilled for another. You were already blushing because of your initiative, but you were definitely redder when he leaned in for another. You were stiff at first but in the end, you gave in.

The second one wasn't as brief as the former, and it was certainly more passionate. When the two of you pulled away for a breather, both of your cheeks were flared with a rosy color, just gazing upon each other's features. You couldn't keep up with the staring contest so you snuggled up to his chest to hide your blushing face. He chuckled and returned your hug as he slowly petted your head.

You cuddled for a while, simply enjoying each other's embrace, looking up at the heavens above. You noticed how beautiful the moon was. "The moon looks beautiful tonight, doesn't it?" you said, unaware of what it meant at the time being. Norman smiled, "I love you too..." he replied and you raised a brow, "Too?" you repeated, "Why did you say I love you too?" you asked and Norman laughed. "What do you mean? Wait, you do know that saying the moon looks beautiful tonight is confessing your love to someone, right?" he continued and you thought about it for a second.

"Is that how it goes?" you raised a brow and he chuckled, "I'm sure that's how it is. It's a poetic way to say I love you." he stated and you responded, "I'll take note of that, at least I've heard of I love you to the moon and back." you cheered and he hummed in agreement, "There's even a movie for that, right?" he pointed out and you nodded yes. "But then..." you trailed off to which he repeated your phrase, "But then?" he asked and you replied, "I'm pretty sure you can still calculate the distance from here to the moon and back? So in dealing with specific technicalities, saying that phrase has a love that can be amounted to a certain extent."

Norman just looked at you and you scrunch your eyebrows, "What?" you exclaimed and he laughed. "Jeez, I thought I was the better overthinker between us." he spoke and you looked at him unconvinced, "But in contrast to what you've said, metaphors exist to expound more than the literal, besides not everyone knows the distance of the moon from here and back." he remarked and you commented, "Except you." you giggled in knowing how much of a genius he was.

"Maybe..." he mumbles, "Maybe me and many others." he continued and you added, "You mean Ray, right?" you asked and he cheekily smiled in agreement, "But let me say this..." you implied, "I love you to the galaxies far far away and back." With that, Norman answered, "I'm getting Star Wars vibes..." he chuckled and so did you. "Tun, tun, tun, tun, tu-tun-tun-tutun!" you hummed to the beat and the two of you laughed.

"Hmm..." the two of you sighed in relief, enjoying each other's presence in a sweet embrace. "I love you..." Norman addresses, "Just like that?" you snickered and he chortled, "Uhm..." he thought about it, "I love you more than the stars in the universe." he expressed so sincerely while waving his hand, pointing towards the stars. "That will do..." you responded and nuzzled closer to him, "I love you too. Let's cuddle under the stars often." You suggested and he nodded in agreement, "Yes, and we shall also watch the galaxy far far away..." he continued.
