Work Text:

It wasn't often that you got to see your boyfriend looking so relaxed and carefree. His normal scowl was turned into a small smile as he sat next to the fountain, looking up at the stars. As you approached him, he motioned for you to sit on the bench next to him.
“Look,” March lifted his hand and pointed out a constellation, “see that arc of stars?” You tried to look at where he's pointing, following his hand to the sky.
“Here. Lean your head on my shoulder and follow my arm up,” He wrapped his arm around your shoulder, pointing at the sky once more, “See those five stars, brighter than the rest? That's a constellation called the Dragonsworn… It was my favorite growing up.” You traced the constellation with your eyes, listening to March as he rambled.
“I got to thinking about how you moved from elsewhere, and sometimes constellations have different names in other places…” He trailed off, looking at the sky with childlike wonder. After a moment, he looked over at you, a faint blush appearing on his cheeks.
“Anyway, sorry if I told you something you already know…” he looked away, his blush growing stronger, “I like stargazing and I guess I wanted to share it with you.”
You giggled at your blushing boyfriend, giving his red cheeks a playful poke.
“You're cute, you know.”
He looked back over at you.
“Nah, but you are.” You rolled your eyes and rested your head back against his shoulder, watching the stars once more. As he held you there under the night sky, you knew that you were exactly where you were meant to be.
