Stars ☪︎ Junmyeon

☪︎

"Hi" the brown haired boy laying next to me said, his eyes reflecting the stars as he turns his head to face me.

It was 3:30 O'clock in the morning, in the park. The park far away from my home, from my world and my reality.

I laid in the grass on the hill, under the stars. He layed next to me.

" Hi" I said back , staring into his eyes, our faces close enough to kiss.

" So... what is it you wanted to say?" He says, turning his head back to stare at the sky.

" What? I never said anything. " I said back, my forehead wrinkled in confusion with my eyes still fixed on him.

" You look like you want to say something" he says , smirking.

" Pfft. " I say grinning , looking up at the sky,

" You think you know me?" I say, sounding annoyed.

" No, I'm saying I want to know you.. " he stopped and giggled to himself,

" I guess I need to work on my flirting skills" he says, still grinning.

I was annoyed at what he was saying. It annoyed me that he had to lay beside me and that he had to talk to me. This strange boy had just ruined my summer. My escape.

" Well I have a lot of problems." I said, hoping he would get the hint and leave.

" Well I have a lot of time" he answered, smiling at me.

I couldn't help but smile back, his smile made me feel happy, for once.

" Summer is just my time to escape.. be someone else. Live like someone else." I said , sitting up and sitting criss- cross.

" Hhm. I get it. You have a shitty life and this is your time to live a better one?" He said , sitting up as well.

" Exactly" .

" Look up at the sky." He said,
" you see all those stars? They're pretty right?" He says, looking up.

" I guess.." I say.

" well you know, these stars couldn't shine like that without a little darkness." He said , looking at me.

" What's that suppose to mean."

" It means you have to have bad things in life in order to have good things." He said back, still looking at me.

"What's your name?" I ask him, looking back at him.

" My names Junmyeon." He says back.

" well Junmyeon, I've spent my whole life with darkness, waiting for something good to happen, and all these stars do is shine down on me , like a spot light. Displaying all the bad in my life for everyone to see." I say to him as I lay back down on the cold grass.

Junmyeon looks taken aback and thinks for a moment before speaking.

" Well ... at least you'll be the centre of attention" he says and we both giggle.

I look at him the stars light shining down on his face , emphasizing his eyes , making them sparkle. I was jealous that the stars displayed this image for him, making him beautiful. Why couldn't they do that for me?

" You know," I said , turning my face to him,

" Tomorrow , when we both go or separate ways and never see each other again... I'm not going to remember this conversation. I'm going to remember the stars . And I'm going to remember your eyes . And just maybe I'll remember how the stars made your eyes look." I say smiling.

He turns to me, our noses almost touch.
" so your admitting that I have pretty eyes? Maybe I should take some flirting lessons from you" he laughs.

" pfft , you wish." I say , turning away, trying not to make it obvious that he was good looking.

I  laid my arms over my head and closed my eyes. They were only closed for a minute, and when I opened them.. the once black sky was now orange indicating morning sunrise.

And the by named Junmyeon who laid beside me all night, was now gone.
