"This is why you made me drive three hours out into the middle of nowhere?" The clicking of his tongue proves he was slightly annoyed at her idea. Out of every plan Misaki came up with. This one made the less sense.

"Come on, Saruhiko. It's not like you can get this view in the city!" The sun was setting, giving away to the night sky as each star started to peep out through the dark blanket. "You said anything I wanted." Quoting word by word. " 'If you want anything on this day, just tell me.' That is what you told me."

As his wordless reply, Saruhiko only got out of the driver side. "I knew you would give in to this." He couldn't look at the chestnut-haired girl smiling at him. Being afraid that the words, 'No. I always give in to you.' would slip out.

Laying on a blanket on the ground, eyes glued toward the million lights that twinkle above them. Naming off what they could, making up random stories for each star sign.

"Cancer was jealous of Scorpio since his pincers were longer."

"No, you have it wrong Saru. Cancer fell in love with Scorpio. Because of his larger pincers." Her hazel eyes glance over at the boy lying beside her. Slightly blushing once his blue eyes locked onto her. Misaki let a snicker slip through her lips. Causing a short-lived laughing fit.

"Only you would think like that, Misaki." He blamed who she spent most of the time with anymore. Homra has never been a good thing in Saruhiko eyes. They were leading her down a path he couldn't follow. Maybe that is why he planned this day for just the two of them. No one else was allowed to be told or join.

"Alright, Mr. Smarty-pants, what's the truth behind them?" Neither of them paid much attention to star signs nor did they really know the true story behind them.

Keeping his eyes on the stars, trying to figure out what to say. "When Scorpio was born, he never had claws or pincers. Because he believes in a life where you never need such things. Even if most of his life there was only ever two feelings he ever felt. Loneliness and pain. He knew he could grow claws to fight back against those who hurt him. But he believes it was useless. The pain would stop. However, the loneliness would always be there."

A tear fell from Misaki hazel eyes only to be quickly wiped away. "So why did he decide to get his pincers?" Sniffing back more of the sadness that Saruhiko eyes gave her.

"Because he met Cancer...Cancer taught him to fight for his friends. Like he seen Cancer do daily. One night when he thought the darkness was going to swallow him. He wise on the brightness star he could think of. Not the brightness star in the sky, no he wishes on the one brightness to him. The star that belongs to Cancer. Because knowing no matter what. Those stars will never fall, so loneliness could never haunt him after he fought back against the ones who taught him pain."

Misaki knew the story behind those words. The heartbreaking truth behind why Saruhiko has many hidden weapons on him at all times. She has never been good at expressing the right things to say. Acting more was her style by just giving him a hug. "I'm glad I met you to Saruhiko. No matter what I'll always have your back."

Even if she meant those words wholehearted. Saruhiko could never fully believe them. "Alright, no more downer talk." Trying to leave the sad topic behind them Misaki tried to bring back the cheerful spirit. "Wouldn't it be awesome to name the stars after yourself?"

"You mean wouldn't it be cool if you got to name a star after a curse word, Misaki?" He knew how she wanted that to happen as karma for the school teacher who always had it out for them. Mostly because she had an issue with Misaki's potty mouth.

"That would be my second choice for the name. My first pick if someone asks me to name a star. I would pick-" Saruhiko knew what name she was going say. Naming a star after her hero in the world would be Misaki greatness dream come true. "..ko"

He wasn't sure he heard his friend correct. 'Ko' wasn't much of a name. No one in Homra was calling that. "I didn't catch that, could you repeat that?" It was odd seeing Misaki squirm some at being questioning to repeating herself.

"I said I would name it 'Saruhiko' or 'Hiko'. So you better not crash into the earth when your star falls." Misaki glance over at him once before watching the star once more. "If you did fall I know where you would land anyways." There her cocky side coming out to challenge him for fun.

"Doubt it." Honestly, he didn't know the answer to that idea. He was a person, not a star. People could go to jail for a crash landing in a place or into people.

"Three places come to mind. Could you picture the look on Kisa face if you took out her huge house." Saruhiko couldn't help but smirk at that idea as Misaki took it a step further, by acting it out jumping off the hood of the car doing the most girlish scream. "No all my nice things."

"What's the other two places?" He loves Misaki idea at times. Always in your face, taking no shit. Saruhiko needs to know more.

"The graveyard." Just leave it at that. No other words need to say, only squeezing Saruhiko's hand. Letting him know she right there beside him. Only her no boogeyman. "Third one. I'm even shocked this is coming from my mouth. But after the shit, Chitose and Eric told me. I'm willing to look the other way if you were to take out Homra."

Saruhiko sat up after hearing she talk crazy. Leaning over to check her forehead. " What are you doing, Saruhiko?"

"Checking for a fever. As you said I could destroy Homra." Ever since they found that growing up. They have been everything to her. Taking his place in her life or so he thought. Unwilling to realize how big her heart was.

"Don't get me wrong but if you were there and heard what they said to me. You would understand my pain." She made it sound like this was the worst things she ever heard from her family. Made it out like it could be life or death for them. Yet, she dramatic it by a bit. The pretty boy of Homra, Chitose, made it like combining their bodies under the star was the best idea. Misaki could have for her birthday. The stray dog of Homra, Eric, made it sound like she had to glow-in-dark for Saruhiko to even notice she was here with him. "My dumbass friends."

"That's it. That is why you want me to turn into a falling star and crash land on them." Clicking his tongue out of habit again. Much like the fuming women beside him. Saruhiko can't believe what's he about to say. "What did Tatara have to add?"

"Something about just saying 'yes' if there was a blanket of rose petals and wine. Whatever that means." Misaki arms were across as she continues to watch the sky. Thankfully missing Saruhiko cursing out Tatara under his breath. Sadly he chickens out at that idea. Afraid she would pick them over him once again when it matters to him. "I could sleep underneath this view right now."

If Saruhiko didn't have to work tomorrow he would of let her have any wish she wanted today. "Ready to go home?" Hopping on her feet, reaching her hand out to help him onto his feet. "Don't be dork over me calling our place home. There no need to get bent out of shape over it. My birthday, my rules."

"Your birthday ended four seconds ago, Misaki. Yet there's no way to take back words now." Getting off the ground as he spoke those with no emotion in his voice, only smirking to himself. 'Home is wherever you are, Misaki.' Thinking that single thought to himself as the pair drove another three hours back to the city again.
