We all need a shinin' star on which we can depend

Voltage outright pouted when he didn't get a jump or a jolt. Instead, he got an ear to his nose and he pulled back with a huff. At the comment of a scent he slowly moved to her side and eyed her slowly. "I guess I'm just used to you being up in the sky so much that you wouldn't notice my scent." He said with a smirk then, sitting beside her before he looked up at the stars. He slowly traced pictures he invented out of the faded lights, trying to find the stories hidden within the language of the stars. He wasn't as well versed as Caeli, infact most of his was pretty much made up. He didn't know the stories of the crab or the warrior's belt. He didn't know much about the stars, but his eyes could trace images of his imagination out of the speckled heavens, and he felt happy with that. He didn't need to know the stories of others, he lived in his own. When she spoke again, he tilted his head to her and slowly looked back at her, a warm smile on his face. "I always wish on the first star I see." He said with a small smile. He always wished for the same thing, ever since the very first day. The stars were Caeli's, and so, too, were his wishes. And they slowly came true, one by one. "I'm proud of you, sister." He said softly, the words sudden but warm, as he lifted his gaze back to the heavens. A soft sigh was on his tongue as he stared up at the stars, feeling at peace in the night for once. He barely slept, it was common knowledge, and when he did sleep it was restless. But he would give up all the hours of restful sleep just to sit beneath the stars with his sister and enjoy her warmth and her presence and know he hadn't lost her. "Tell me a story?" He said softly, looking at her then with the stars in his eyes and a warm smile on his lips. He had missed her, so dearly. |
