you threw your phone aside as you plopped face-down on your bed. you sighed as soon as your body hit the mattress. on any normal day, you would fall asleep right away after a hectic day like this, but you had plans with your boyfriend, yuma. you wanted to refuse, but you couldn't because you knew that he would find a way to cheer you up. he always did.
you got out of bed, grabbed your keys and walked out of your house. the night air felt cold against your skin and you hugged your coat closer to yourself, but it was of no help. just when you were about to reach yuma's place, your phone started ringing.
"yn where are you? I'm already here", you heard yuma's voice through your phone speaker.
"damn, have some patience yuma. i'm almost there"
"hurry up, i'm waiting". you hung up and opened the camera app on your phone to fix your hair.
"yn!", yuma exclaimed after seeing you," what took you so long?"
"why do you even want to play basketball in this weather?" you asked.
"It's fun", yuma smiled at you and took your hand, "let's go."
yuma and you played for a while on the basketball court that was near his house, you missed every single shot, causing yuma to laugh at you. that was the best part, hearing his laugh. it was so therapeutic. no matter how exhausted you were, his laugh never failed to make you smile.
"you're so bad at this", he laughed after you missed another shot.
"no, i'm not. I just feel very tired right now", you protested.
"stop making excuses and admit that you suck", he said as he passed you the ball.
you aimed for another shot and missed yet again.
at this point, all the energy from your body was drained, and you dropped to the ground, "gosh I can't do this anymore".
yuma dropped beside you and lay on the ground, "the stars are pretty tonight", he said as he sighed.
"why are you lying on the ground, it's not even clean?"
yuma ignored your complaints and pulled you down beside him.
"look at the sky. it's beautiful, isn't it?", he said.
"yeah, it is"
after laying beside yuma in comfortable silence, you already felt most of your exhaustion leaving your body. he suddenly lifted one of his hands in the air and started counting the stars.
"one…two…three…four…", he then pointed at you, "and five. all of the stars look so pretty tonight."
you smiled, "there are six actually."
you pointed at each of the stars in the sky, yourself and then at yuma.
"you're right, they all look so pretty tonight", you admitted.
yuma blushed on hearing that and moved closer to you. he held your hand and asked, "you had a bad day?"
"yeah. school is beating my ass and I have three pending essays and I'm having trouble with them even though it's my best subject."
you sighed, "but I feel better now that I'm with you."
he placed a soft kiss on your temple, "I thought you hated basketball."
"yeah, I do. but it's fun when I'm playing with you."
"aww, you love me?", he said with a cheeky grin.
"yes", you replied with a smile on your face.
"I love you more", he said as he traced your features with his fingers. your eyes fluttered close when his fingers touched your face. he kissed the corner of your mouth and held you close.
"it's cold, isn't it?", he said after a while.
"it was your idea to come outside", you stated.
"come on I'll walk you home", he said.
"okay", you replied, but you didn't move, and neither did he. you two just lay on the ground in each other's embrace, admiring the stars.
