31 Days of AoKasa

Day Fourteen: Stars

Kasamatsu takes Aomine to gaze at the stars.

Aomine smacked his arm, stopping yet another mosquito from sucking his blood. He bit back a growl of annoyance and instead glanced down at the shorter male who was walking next to him. "Care to tell me why we're out here and not back in the cabin where its nice and warm? And mosquito-free?" The dark blue haired male asked Kasamatsu as he narrowly avoided tripping over a branch.

Kasamatsu rolled his eyes as he manoeuvred past a tree, his hand finding Aomine's. "I just want to show you something." The older teenager stated, giving Aomine's hand a faint squeeze. His other hand held the flashlight up, shining it on their path. Kasamatsu pulled Aomine along, guiding them through the dark forest.

Aomine mentally shrugged and allowed himself to be dragged along, mostly because he still had no idea what Kasamatsu wanted to show him. He swatted another bug away from his face, nearly tripping over a tree root which was sticking up out of the ground. He held back a sigh of annoyance, not wanting it to seem like this whole thing was a bother to him when it really was not. In fact, Aomine was glad to have some alone time with his boyfriend, not surrounded by the other campers in their shared cabin.

Aomine smirked to himself and he wondered about whether or not he would be able to put the moves on Kasamatsu at some point during their little midnight excursion. His thoughts were interrupted when they entered a clearing in the forest. Aomine squinted his eyes as he peered around. From what he could make out in the moonlight area, the clearing had some picnic tables and a couple outdoor barbecues set up. "Why are we here?" Aomine finally asked once they came to a stop.

Kasamatsu looked up at him, a smile on his face. "Just look up, you idiot." He whispered to Aomine.

The royal blue eyed male narrowed his eyes at being called an idiot but did as he was instructed. He craned his neck and peered up at the night sky.

Aomine's eyes widened and his lips parted in slight surprise. Bright stars littered the dark sky, clear and beautiful. There were numerous stars that painted the sky which he did not ever notice before.

"It's pretty, isn't it?" Kasamatsu asked softly, also staring up at the glittering midnight sky. "You could never see anything like this in the city. There are too many bright lights blocking the stars from our view." The raven haired teen commented.

"That's true..." Aomine agreed once he wet his dry lips. The tanned skinned male turned to the smaller male next to him and squeezed his hand. "I guess this was worth walking into all those trees." Aomine murmured, leaning closer to his boyfriend.

He was about to kiss the older teenager but was suddenly stopped when Kasamatsu shined the flashlight in his eyes. "Gah!" Aomine stumbled back, shielding his eyes from the burning light.

"All right, you vampire, let's head back." Kasamatsu said, motioning for Aomine to turn around so they could take the same path back.

Aomine faltered. "We aren't going to stay longer?" Aomine asked, giving the night sky another look, suddenly not wanting to part with it.

Kasamatsu arched his eyebrow. He shrugged, "If you don't mind getting attacked by bugs." He teased since he knew Aomine had been swatting them away ever since they stepped foot out of the cabin.

"... I don't mind."
