"Are we there yet??~" you whined, your legs already tired. You have been following Marshall Lee for about an hour right now, in the MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT....and he STILL hasn't stopped walking.... Er..... Flying to where ever it was you were going.

Marshall just chuckled. "Just keep your head on for a while longer." He said with a smile as he flew down to your height. "It's just up that hill." You looked up at where he was pointing.

The highest hill in Aaa

"What's so special up there?" You asked, tiredness visible in your voice. 

Marshall groaned. "Dude, just wait . You'll see for yourself." And with that he dragged you up the hill. As you reached the top he floated on his back and closed his eyes. "Lie down." He said waving a hand. 

You looked down at the ground and raised an eyebrow. "You can't expect me to lie on the ground!"

"It's not gonna kill ya (y/n). Just... Trust me on this one for a sec...."

"This isn't another prank is it?" You said looking at him curiously. "And you're not mad about the whole pink haired shampoo prank I pulled on you last week right?"

Marshall opened an eye and raised an eyebrow. "So that was you eh?" You just stood there and chuckled nervously. Marshall gave a small smile before saying once more, "Lie down."

You sighed with a small smile and lay down on the grass, which wasn't so bad. 

"Close your eyes." Marshall said.

And you did.

"Clear your head."

You did.

"Listen to the sounds around you."

You heard all the peaceful noises of the world around you. The sound of the wind, birds flying and the soft chirping of crickets.

"Look up."

When you opened your eyes and looked up you gave a gasp. Thousands and millions of stars were up there, stuck in the sky shinning their very best as if they were on display.

You had to sit up straight to take it all in. "Marshall this is AMAZING!!" You yelled, shaking him and jumping up and down on your but. "I've never seen so many before!!" Of course all you got was a chuckle.

"Why haven't I seen this many stars before!?" You yelled once more, smiling like a weirdo.

"People these days don't stop to see the world around them, they always walk by...." Marshall said as he landed down next to you and looked up. "And your one of 'em."

You had to give a pout. "Hey~" you complained poking him on the cheek. "It's not my fault! I don't have the time these days ya know!"

You kept poking him teasingly, until Marshall turned his head and you ended up poking his lips. His eyes met yours and you stopped. Finger still on his lip. Eyes locked.

You both stared at each other for a good while, and you lowered your hand and gave a smile.

"Thank you....." You said, blushing a red you hoped he wouldn't see. "Thank you for the stars...."

Marshall smiled a smile that would kill the cutest animal on earth. "Eh, no biggie." He said shrugging as if it was something he did everyday. "I do this all the time, but I wanted to share this moment with you...." 

"Well.... Still though, thank you. And I couldn't have enjoyed this moment with anyone but you."  You said gratefully.

Marshall held your hand. "No problem." He said with a smile. "But I guess now you owe me one."
