"John, look," Alex whispered, his head leaning on John's shoulder as he pointed at a constellation. "There's Orion, and there's Ursa Major, and there's Aries..."
"-and there's you." John laughed as he waited for Alex to get his meaning (or ask for it).
"Whaddoyoumean?" Alexander muttered, eyes starting to close. He was getting used to falling asleep on John. Possibly too used to it, but who cared? Not him, that was for sure.
"You're the brightest star there is, love," John said, pulling his boyfriend close. He petted Alex's hair as the taller boy fell asleep with his head in John's lap. "And I'll make sure you never go out."
