Kaito loved starry nights. Matte charcoal black uncontrollably covered in thousands and millions of bright specks. Kaito loved the way he could see star, after star, after star, a never ending void of light that projects no means of guidance in his eyes. The complicated configurations and patterns of light which had taken years to be seen by the average naked eye. Below, the blacked out hillside could just be seen, its roughness and texture now one clean flat shape, dissolving down into the dewy grass. Now he was over joyed to share this scene with someone important to him.

The shorter green haired male, seated upon the grass next to the lavender purple haired astronaut, gazed out in awe at the twinkling spectacle that his emeralds were beholding. Under that sky of perfect midnight velvet, under stars so brilliant that caused them both to draw their eyes heaven bound.

A short warm breeze swept by the two announcing the coming of summer's hottest days. The aroma of the tall grasses was an intoxicating perfume and the starry night above was a painting more sublime than any man could ever hope to create.

To Kaito, Rantaro appeared so perfect in the soft gentle illumination of the blue hued moonlight.

Whenever Kaito had seen Rantaro, it was as if space and time became the finest point imaginable, as if time had collapsed into one tiny speck and exploded at light speed. It was as if his universe begun and ended with Rantaro. Kaito could run forever, search forever, but in the end, every path would lead right back to Rantaro's heart and soul. That was why Kaito loved Rantaro with all his being.

Rushes of light sped across the clear sky in mass, like shooting stars. The cosmic phenomenon of the meteor shower had taken the two's breath away as they watched with wonderment twinkling in their eyes.

Kaito's gentle yet manly hand softly fell upon Rantaro's more feminine one. Their fingers intertwined in a warm grasp.

Then a raindrop fell against their skin, followed by several others, but they didn't have the heart to go seek cover indoors. Luckily the well prepared astronaut had brought an umbrella which he propped up to shield them from the falling droplets. The moon hung full and hazy beneath an eclipse of blazing stars, allowing the two to see the swaying grass in the distance.

Rantaro huddled up to Kaito as he rested his head against the broad shoulder of his purple haired companion.

The emeralds of Rantaro's orbs met with the amethyst sparkle of Kaito's as they held each other close under the protection of the umbrella. It was if the moment had taken them as their lips soon met in a moment of pure bliss that felt as if fireworks were exploding into vivid colours of life.

Kaito parted the kiss then positioned myself on one knee as he gazed at Rantaro with loving eyes.

"Rantaro, you are the sky and the clouds; you are the gentle river and the birds that sing. I feel you in the air, long for your touch, recall you in a way that sends electricity to spark my mind, body and soul. You are medicine; you are light; you are laughter and hope. I slipped my heart into your pocket some time ago and there it will stay, safe and sound." The astronaut then revealed a small navy velvet box from his pocket and presented it to Rantaro. "You have made me the happiest man in the world so will you marry me?" A glistening amethyst stone with equally beautiful emeralds upon a silver ring sat cushioned with the box.

Pink tinted blush spread across Rantaro's cheeks as the man he loved asked the all important question.

There were no second guesses or doubts about Rantaro's answer. "Of course I'll marry you!"

Kaito was over the moon and felt as though nothing bad could ever happen as long as he was with the one he had set his heart upon. He gladly and carefully slipped the engagement ring onto Rantaro's finger then Rantaro wrapped his arms around Kaito in a loving embrace.

The two lovers continued to gaze at those bright friends of the moon and their pattern that seemed so fixed and yet ever-changing, distant lights to call their hearts, to inspire dreams of other worlds. The world had never seemed so peaceful.

A chill late night breeze nipped at their faces which in turn caused Rantaro shiver. The astronaut took notice and cuddled up to Rantaro then bringing the loose hanging half of his galactic coat over Rantaro to keep him warm. The two hugged under the warmth of the astronaut's coat and the shielding of the umbrella, their breathing creating mist in the cold as they kept each other warm.

The raindrops fell rhythmically against the leaves of nearby trees and the umbrella top, making everything feel all the more idyllic. The rain was comforting and was a lovely addition to the current scenery. With all the warm, stuffy weather that Kaito and Rantaro had experienced as of late the rain was definitely more of a comfort than an annoyance to their senses.

Just then a shooting star raced across of black velvet sky. "Ah quick make a wish." Kaito had spotted the phenomenon first and was soon to point it out with a child like excitement. "So what did you wish for?" He gazed at the avocado green haired boy seated beside him.

"I wished for every moment with you to be like this one." A genuine soft smile spread across Rantaro's lips.

"You're just so adorable," Kaito laughed then cuddled Rantaro and ruffled his silky hair. "And that's why I love you."

"I love you too Kaito." Rantaro declared as he snuggled against Kaito's neck.

The two kept hugging, enjoying each other's company until the warmth emitting from their bodies caused Rantaro to fall asleep first.

As the green haired male slept soundly Kaito brushed the stray hair strands from his face and placed a soft kiss upon his forehead. "Sleep well Rantaro." The astronaut smiled to himself as he lay back with the adventurer's head resting against his crest.

It didn't take long for sleep to creep up on Kaito too as he felt his eyelids grow heavy then close.
