Starry Night

"The sky is so beautiful."
"Just like you."
We'd been dating for a few months now. He was amazing. He always said and did the right things at the right time. My mom loved him and my dad told me that he didn't hate him. Which means something coming from my dad. 
Anyways, we were sitting in the back of his pick-up truck, surrounded by blankets and pillows. 
I looked over at him and smiled. 
"What?"
"Nothing."
I leaned up and kissed him. Now it was his turn to smile. 
I looked back up at the sky and thought about how perfect this was. This was the first time I'd ever done something like this. It was amazing. The weather was perfect, kind of chilly so we had to be close but not too cold that we were freezing. 
"I'm going to start a fire so we can roast marshmallows."
He surprised me almost scared me. I'd zoned so far out that I forgot he was there. 
"Okay. I'll help you."
We gathered some wood and started the fire. He reached into the truck and grabbed two roasters, graham crackers, chocolate, and a bag of marshmallows. He handed me a roaster with a marshmallow and I put it over the fire. He grabbed one for himself and walked over behind me. 
One arm was on my stomach. The other was reached around me and towards the fire. I leaned back on him. My head resting softly on his chest. I could feel his breathing, hear his heartbeat. He leaned his head down and whispered in my ear, "I love you."
My breath caught in my throat. He'd never said it before. We'd never said it before. I heard him sigh. I dropped the marshmallow roaster and turned towards him. I grabbed his face, leaned up and kissed him. A long hard kiss. I was out of breath after. But when I finally got it back, 
I smiled and said, "I love you too."
For the rest of the night, his face shone brighter than all of the stars and the moon combined.
