cuz you're a sky , cuz you're a sky , full of stars ...
Alex's POV :
As I sit across the table , my milkshake in my hand, under a million suns that illuminate the night sky , I cannot help but notice him. He is a treat to my eyes.
Adonis .
The Greek God sitting in front of me is robbing my attention off of everything . Only my eyesight is working for now, my brain rattling with thoughts about him , my ears inattentive to what he is telling me , his eyes boring into mine . But I let mine wander , wander to his perfectly sculpted face, his perfect and sharp jawline , his perfectly shaped lips, that move beautifully as he talks .
I sneak a glance towards his freshly cut hair , for a thousandth time. The extended locks are missing, yet he didn't get them cut too short. As much as I thought I'd never like him the same if his hair ever got cut short, I cannot help but think just how perfect and more heavenly he looks right now. (a/n: guys I picture him as TMH Harry now)
My glance wanders towards his white v-neck t-shirt that adorns his torso tonight, his inked skin prominent beneath it . His defined muscles available for my eyes to gawk at , adorned with several tattoos ,the sight of which enriches my soul.
How eyetonic!
I am snapped out of my trance when I hear him clear his throat lightly. I look away.
"Did you hear me Alex?"
My cheeks redden with embarrassment .
"Uh..no, sorry...what were you saying again?"
He shakes his head and chuckles .
" I was telling you about something strange that I noticed in the file that Maria gave me today...but your mind seems to be preoccupied with other thoughts."
I sigh ," Yeah, I was thinking how good you look in your new haircut ...anyways what strange thing did you notice ?".
His lips turned up in a beautiful shy smile, " Really? Well ,thank you Alex. I'm glad you liked it...I kind of needed it I think . "
I shrugged my shoulders , letting a smile creep into my face ," No, not really Harry...you look good either way ..How did you even get time to get a haircut ?"
"Well, I guess TWO hours are more than enough to get a haircut Alex ...!", he laughed ," It barely took half an hour ...my hair weren't even THAT long !! "
I joined him and we laughed at my preposterous question.
My laughter came to an abrupt halt, when I saw two palms covering Harry's eyes suddenly . When I looked up, I knew better to expect who it was .
I open my mouth , when I can't keep myself from laughing out loud , but he widens his eyes and shakes his head furiously, trying to hold in his own laugh, indicating me to not let out a sound . I quickly cover my mouth with my hand and succumb to my silent laughs .
"Oh come on ! I know it's you George ! ", Harry whines ,keeping himself from laughing.
" I bet that was hard to guess !! ", George shouts excitedly and uncovers Harry's eyes .
His eyes find mine and we share a funny look before we both burst out laughing .Whilst laughing, we are joined by George , his laugh too contagious ! We get up and take our turns to hug him.
"I knew it....I knew my Hazz boy will bring you around !! ", he exclaims triumphantly , wiggling his eyebrows .
"Well I insisted to come here this time ! I wanted to see 20 meteors !" , I tease George lightly .
He laughs, "HAHA ! Well , I'll make it 30 now sweetheart !! "
We joined him in his laugh .
"Well I have to get going , there's a small party going on downstairs and I have to make sure everything is being taken care of ! I'm sorry Harry , I won't join you today ! " he stops and diverts his attention towards me with a playful smirk, " Not that I would want to interrupt you and your mistress anyway ! " And before any one of us could speak another word , he laughs his way off downstairs.
When George is gone , Harry picks up his glass and gulps its content before lying down on his mattress across the table.
He speaks up, "Don't mind what he says , he likes to tease ", he laughs lightly .
"Oh believe me I never do..!", I chuckle as I seat myself . He directs his gaze towards me , "Aren't you going to complete your target ? 30 meteors , isn't easy and we haven't even started yet !" Then he laughs like a child and I laugh at his cuteness .
"I think we should get started ! " , I chuckle as I lay on by back ,on my mattress facing the sky . I adjust my t-shirt, glad at my choice of wardrobe –jeans and t-shirt . I bring my hands up, to rest under my head .
I'm so glad ,I'm not home, unsuccessfully trying to sleep . Even more glad , I'm with Harry , he makes me forget my sorrows . Sorrows. Just reminiscing the name makes me sorrowful . I absent mindedly gaze at the stars above ,yet I don't fail to realize how beautiful they look ! As if a large hand tossed diamonds into the sky . They are flashing and flickering , sparkling and shimmering , gleaming and glittering, twinkling and dazzling . It lightens me up . As I stare at them in awe , I wonder why I haven't done this before . I wouldn't have ever taken time to admire them if it wasn't for Harry..
As if on cue , Harry speaks up ," Did you happen to locate any constellation ? ", he asks me.
" No...did you? ", I ask ,wondering if he did .
"Yes ...From here I can clearly see Aquila ! Can you see it ?" he points in a certain direction ,but when I look up I can't quite make out .
"No..I can't see it ! ", I scrunch up my nose , trying to make something out , but I can't.
"Okay...do you see that star right there ...?" he points up and asks me.
I look in the direction his finger points , "Oh that one ??" , I point towards it and ask him .
"Uh yeah I guess you got it right .. That is the tip of the shallow inverted-v which is the top of Aquila ", he informs me .
"Oh..WOW ! " , I try to make out the whole of it , but I can't .
"Now look at both the sides and try to connect the dots of the inverted-v "
I try hard , but no success .
I sigh , "Harry I can't find it !! ", I say whiningly .
He chuckles and gets up from his mattress . I fix my eyes on him as he starts walking towards my mattress . My heart starts pumping fast as he couches down next to me and then lays down on his back . He is close yet there is some distance between us and I am thankful for that , otherwise I would have been a nervous wreck . I watch him as he carefully places his hands under his head and turns his head towards me with a beautiful smile etched to it . I smile back . I briefly close my eyes and inhale all of his scent , his smiling face imprints itself in my mind and I can't help but feel blissful. I open my eyes , only to find his on my face, scanning it ,before he turns his attention towards the stars , embarrassed .
He points his finger towards the stars and after considerable efforts , I do locate Aquila . It suddenly starts making sense to me and Aquila stands out now .
"WOW !! I can finally see it now ! Thanks !" , I smile as I keep looking at my discovery triumphantly .
"It was my pleasure ! Wanna see Aries ? " , he raises his brows .
"Yes please ! ", I murmur excitedly .
And soon I get engrossed , engrossed in him , engrossed in the way he shows me every constellation he knows, many of whom I haven't even heard of .
As much as I love seeing the night sky myself, it looks even more beautiful when I see it in his eyes .
