The air was cooling as TJ was walking home with Amber, their house really wasn't that far from the Mack's house. Amber was watching him with a smirk as TJ walked with a wide, sappy, smile.

"So, are you gonna tell me what happened? Or are we just ignoring this until you break and tell me anyways?" Amber asked, her bag swinging by her side. TJ chuckled slightly.

"It was just.. a really good night, I don't know. I had a really good time.."

"There's something more, you've been pretty destroyed since Costume Day.. and suddenly you look high on life again, what happened?" Amber questioned, looking over at him. TJ sighed, looking up at the sky.

"Do you think the stars really affect your life?" Amber blinked, face full of confusion.

"Maybe? Why are you asking?"

"Because, I mean, I think.. when I.. I told Cyrus my actual name, only you, mom, dad, grammy and pappy know it.. but I trust Cyrus, and he said he loved it, he loved something about me. I held his hand, and he let me.. I'm just, I don't know, I'm giddy, cause I think he likes me too.. I asked him out on a date, out to the park, and he agreed.." TJ explained, looking down at the sidewalk, not letting his smile fall.

"TJ!" Amber yelled, stopping them both as she turned to put her hands on TJ's shoulder, "I'm so happy for you, kid!" she added with a hug. TJ chuckled, hugging back.

"I'm only two years younger.."

"Still a kid," Amber said as she pulled away, "I'm proud of you, Teej.."

"Thanks, Ambs.." TJ smiled, starting to walk again, their house was about a block away now. TJ saw the house's lights through the windows.

Their parents have been better, but Amber still went to therapy. TJ never started it, though he figures he should, but he doesn't wanna go to his best friend's/maybe boyfriend's(?) parents for therapy. So he didn't, but Cyrus helped, he always did..

That night TJ sat up late in bed, texting Cyrus with a wide smile on his face. His cat, Cheeto, was pawing at him for attention and getting annoyed, TJ looked over and smiled as he started to pet him.

The moonlight was shining through the window as the stars sparkling. The smile on his face never leaving his face as he typed a goodnight message around 1am.
