I find myself lost in my own thoughts once more, gazing out at the night sky. My head rests on your shoulder, our hands intertwined. This moment holds a comfortable kind of silence as we stargaze, softly swaying to and fro on the swinging bench resting on our porch.

Despite it being the middle of summer, the night air still holds a sharp coolness to it. Subconsciously, I wrap my cardigan around myself a bit tighter. The cold air isn't unbearable, it's somewhat refreshing compared to the heat bearing down when the sun is out.

I can't help but wonder what time it is; definitely late enough to head to bed. I quietly whisper your name, barely making any noise at all, only to get the sound of soft breathing in return. A fond smile makes its way onto my face - I can't blame you for falling asleep, the night felt very tranquil.

Gently, as to not wake you, I take off my over-sized cardigan and place it around your shoulders before resting my head on you once more, allowing my own eyes to close. Perhaps our necks will ache in the morning, but for now, all I could focus on was the sound of nearby crickets chirping putting me to rest.
