"Come on, I wanna show you something."
Blaine took Kurt by the hand and led him out into their back yard; the skies were clear like they had been for the last week, meaning they would have a perfect view of the meteor shower that was due at midnight.
"Kurt, we're not gonna be able to see a meteor shower like this for another thirty years."
Kurt had never been into all of that space stuff, but Blaine was-ever since he was a child.
It wasn't that he didn't care about it-he thought that the idea that there were other things-other life forms out there was absolutely fascinating-he just wasn't that interested in it.
Blaine, on the other hand, he had been curious about space since he was a boy; when other kids were getting into baseball, or football, he was researching the different planets.
It was a hobby of his that had turned into a passion, and one that he had carried with him through to adulthood.
Blaine had brought out the deckchairs from the garden shed and set them out in the middle of the garden, with a blanket underneath them.
"Here, why don't you sit down?"
Kurt did just that and Blaine soon joined him, linking hands with him in the empty space between the chairs.
They leaned back in their chairs and looked up at the sky.
"Isn't this amazing?"
He nodded, "You know-it is. I can see why you like it so much."
"I think it's because you can get lost in the stars, you know? Like, there is so much out there that we don't know about-but we're finding new stuff every day, and the bits that we can see are just so beautiful."
"I know-what's the time?"
Blaine checked the time and smiled.
"Five more minutes. Drink?"
He ran into their kitchen and came back three minutes later with two steaming mugs of hot chocolate in his hands.
"Cream and marshmallows, just how you like it."
"Thanks babe."
Blaine returned to his seat and his hand found Kurt's again. This was how he wanted to spend the rest of his life.
As he tilted his head back and looked up, he saw a small flash of light shoot across the sky.
Kurt turned towards him and squeezed his hand gently.
"Hey Blaine, make a wish."
