" You see those stars right there? that's Eridanus."

She smiled at him their hands intertwined underneath the blanket. 

He continued talking about different stars his free hand pointing at the star spotted sky. 

She grinned from ear to ear occasionally nodding her head as if to agree with his words. 

She didn't care about the stars, 

but she loved that moment, 

that story book moment with him. 

The world seemed to fall away with them under the stars.

The burning fire felt warmer and her heart felt a little bit lighter.

The chatter and murmurs of everyone else around the fire seemed to die down and in that moment she felt complete.

She felt whole again.
