Constellations Pt. 2 || C.B.
hello! this was requested by @ciariamarie27
Summary: After months of preparation Corbyn finally tells you how he feels.
Months past since that fateful night under the stars, and ever since then you and Corbyn had only grown more and more close. From that day on Corbyn always asked you questions about the night sky, and every time you always had an answer. Everyone knew Corbyn loved the science aspect of space, but you brought Corbyn a whole different type of knowledge when it came to the stars and the planets. With every fact you told him it came with a story.
You had never shared your knowledge about the stars with anyone except for Corbyn. Mostly because he was the only one who was actually interested in hearing about it. Soon your favorite part of any day was when Corbyn would be barging in wanting to hang out with you. And that you did.
What started out as just conversations about the stars, quickly turned into something more. You would find yourself opening up to Corbyn in a way you didn’t think you would, telling him everything about you. And for everything you told about yourself, Corbyn would share something about himself too. The both of you had become so comfortable with each other that you weren't afraid to be completely vulnerable with one another. You both knew that at this point your relationship was definitely more than just friends. But there was still this unspoken ‘thing’ between the two of you.
So when Corbyn randomly shows up at your window telling you that he’s taking you out instead of asking questions you went along with it. You knew Corbyn wouldn’t do anything to hurt you.
Corbyn waited outside by the car and when you finally walked through your front door, Corbyn couldn’t help but whisper to himself. Wow. He’s seen you many times; he’s seen you with no makeup, with makeup, he’s seen you when you just wake up and have crazy bed head, he’s seen you at your highs and your lows, and every time he’s seen you he’s left awestruck because you truly are the most beautiful girl he’s ever laid his eyes on.
“Well are you just gonna keep staring or are you gonna tell me why I had to get out of my comfy clothes this late at night?” you joked with him.
He smirked at you and opened your door, “Just get in the car, I have something to show you.” As you stepped into the car Corbyn shut your door lightly behind you and taking a deep breath as his plan was now getting started. Corbyn stepped into the driver’s seat and before he started the car he handed you a blindfold. “Put this on.” Corbyn said simply.
You laughed at the boy, “First you tell me you have something to show me and now you’re telling me to blindfold myself so I can’t see? What do you want from me?” you teased putting the blindfold on.
“You’ll see” was all he said as the both of you drove off.
“Okay you can take it off” was the first thing Corbyn said to you the entire drive. You quickly ripped off the blindfold to see a Planetarium.
“You know Corbyn if you wanted to look at the stars we could’ve used my telescope.” you said quietly confused about the events that were taking place.
Corbyn turned the car off and quickly ran out to open your door and let you out. “This isn’t the end of it, just wait.”
You looked up to him as you got out of the car, “You better not go all La La Land on me, as cool as it would be to dance among the stars, I hate to admit that right now that’s currently impossible and would take some movie magic” you continued to tease him before walking in front of him towards the entrance. Corbyn laughed walking behind you as you both entered the planetarium. Corbyn grabbed your hand and quickly brought you to the theater.
And the more Corbyn showed you the more confused you became, “Okay seriously Corbyn what are we doing here?” you asked him turning to face him. The second you made eye contact with him he simply smiled at you and the lights were quickly turned off. “Seriously Corbyn what the hell.” you said trying to find him in the pitch black room. You were quickly stopped by hands grabbing you and a voice whispering. “Look up”
In any normal case, you would’ve screamed but you knew that voice from all the nights you spent together whispering under the stars. And as you looked up a night sky was shown and you smiled, because you’ve never felt this close to the stars. You looked back to Corbyn, the light of the stars making his sparkle like never before. But you didn’t know that his eyes had that little glint because he was looking at you. “You see that star there?” Corbyn said pointing to the brightest star. You nodded looking up at the star.
“That’s the star, Vega. It’s-”
“One of the brightest stars in the night sky.” you said finishing his sentence for him.
“Why are you telling me this?” you asked confused turning your body to face him completely.
Corbyn avoided your question with another question, “What do you see Y/N?” he asked you looking up at the night sky shown before them in the theater.
“Obviously the star Vega which means there’s the constellation Lyra.” You said pointing to the constellation. The more you looked at the sky the more familiar it looked. The only difference was that you didn’t need your telescope this time to see all the stars and constellations. You couldn’t believe what you were seeing so you looked to Corbyn and before you could ask your question he spoke.
“This is what the night sky looked like above our campground the day we went camping.” Corbyn stated. He grabbed your hand and started walking around pointing to the constellations you looked at that night.
You were amazed that Corbyn was able to remember even a fraction of what you told him many months ago. Corbyn chuckled at your facial expression already able to know what you’re thinking. “I may or may not have spent all last night making sure I knew some of them.”
“Why are you doing all of this? Showing me all of this?” you asked quietly.
“Because” Corbyn took a deep breath before continuing. “It was that night, under this sky when I realized I was in love with you.” He said looking at you caressing your face with his hands. You looked up at the night sky that was being shown to you by some projector in the room and then to Corbyn. It was his eyes where you would always find your favorite little constellations and shining stars. Before you could say anything Corbyn continued speaking. “I’ve wanted to tell you every single day for the past couple of months. Hell, I even wanted to scream it out loud that night. But I wanted it to be special. I wanted to show you how special that night was for me. And no I can’t recite every single constellation and story behind them by memory. But I can tell you from that night on you were able to paint the night sky in different colors and show me something incredibly different. That night it felt like you put the stars in the sky just for me and I love you Y/N. I love you more than Orpheus loved Eurydice.” he whispered softly.
You giggled at his little reference from the first story you ever told him. “You’re absolutely incredible Corbyn.” you said as you put your hand on his cheek. You could tell his heart was racing fast, just like yours. And as you slowly stood on your tippy toes to reach his lips the projector began to show a meteor shower. And like the stars that were falling from the sky the both of you were falling too.
You pulled away and smiled at the blue-eyed boy, “You planned all of this for me?”
“I’d do anything for you Y/N. I’d travel to the underworld and rescue you from Hades if you needed me to.” Corbyn stated softly.
You smiled at him as he continued to reference the story of Orpheus, looking into his eyes. “You know Corbyn my favorite set of stars are the ones I find in your eyes.” you said your hand still on his cheek. Corbyn’s heart was filled with joy as you spoke about him. You both just stood there in comfortable silence looking at each other, not wanting this sweet moment to end. You brought Corbyn closer to you and whispered softly in his ear. “There’s a quote by Emery Allen that always made me think of you. I never thought I’d actually tell you it but it feels right to tell you now.”
“What is it?” He whispered back
“I feel like a part of my soul has loved you since the beginning of everything” you said softly, looking him in the eyes. “Maybe we’re from the same star.”
Corbyn grinned widely as he listened to you speak. His heart pounding out of his chest, and joy spilling from every inch of his body because the girl he loved, loved him too.
