Starry Night Skies
Once every couple of months or so – it tended to vary, much like the weather – Tsugaru would make his way to the roof of their apartment building, sit down, and look up at the stars.
Psyche found the entire ritual both fascinating and a little confusing. He'd follow Tsugaru up on occasion or go up hours after the fact with hot chocolate or something else. What he wanted was to spend time with him and, to him, it didn't matter whether or not he understood why Tsugaru did the things he did, so long as they were together.
He didn't really understand why Tsugaru went to the roof. You couldn't really see the sky because of the smog from all of the cars and other pollutants. Plus, the light pollution meant that only a small handful of stars and constellations could be seen.
Still, whenever he came up to the roof and curled up next to Tsugaru, he'd get a brilliant, winning smile from him and an arm pulling him close.
It took a few more minutes before Tsugaru would point out what stars he could see, outline the constellations that he knew were there. All of that he did for Psyche.
Those quiet moments, Psyche thought he saw something in Tsugaru that he never thought he'd see. He could put a name to it, but it made his heart ache painfully and he didn't know what to do.
He wanted to make Tsugaru smile, really smile, to stop him looking at the sky with that wistful and sad smile of his.
Psyche wanted to make him happy. That would make him happy too.
FIN.
