"Star one, two, three....heh...I can never count them all!" Dream giggled, looking at the night sky with a certain glimmer or shimmer in his eyes.

Cross could only look at them, admiring how...shiny and ethereal they looked in the night, almost like a lighthouse in the middle of a dark sea.

The couple smiled, holding each other's hands while laying on the soft and fuzzy grass.

"I like this..." Cross muttered, leaning his head onto Dream's shoulder as he closed his eyes and Dream hummed in response, taking the breath-taking view that laid upon them.

Fireflies flew about, the sound of the crickets chirping ensued, and the wind blew softly. Dream still had his eyes glued up to the sky, admiring the little sparkles that littered it.

"Stars do look so beautiful...even if they're just balls of gas." Dream muttered and Cross hummed. "Yeah, they sure are but..." Cross paused, opening an eye to look at Dream.

"But what?" The guardian of positivity asked, looking at Cross with curiosity. "I think how people interpret stars is more beautiful...it just shows how imagination can make something simple into something more bizarre." Cross replied, wrapping an arm around Dream.

"Woah... I never...really thought of that before—come to think of it... People wish on stars, people say it's their loved ones looking at them from the heavens, it's also the human's save point... Cross..." Dream looked up at the sky again.

"What is it, sunshine?" Cross asked, happily looking up at where Dream was looking.

"What do you think of stars? What do they mean to you?" The smaller one asked, twiddling their thumbs. Cross smiled at this and replied "Well... They're sparkles that shine, lighting up the pitch black sky... A symbol of hope...".

Dream hummed, nodding at Cross' answer while also wrapping his arms around Cross's arm and leaning onto him.

Cross chuckled at that and pulled Dream onto his lap, eliciting a gasp from him. He buried his face into the crook of Dream's neck and the guardian of positivity smiled, leaning onto Cross and letting himself be hugged against his chest.

"I love you like the stars..." Cross whispered and Dream shivered at Cross' breath on his skin. He blushed strong gold and began to smile, replying "Me too...".
