Reader's POV

I looked around the library.
Leslie was at my side, helping me pick out some books.

I sat down, then felt a hand on mine.
Ray? It had to be him, that was his touch. I would know it blind... I would know Ray no matter what.

 I heard some humming and looked around.

Ray peeked over from his book.
"Hey, Y/n,"
He said.

My heart fluttered and I smiled.
"Hey, Ray!"
I smiled.

It had been 2 years since I reunited with everyone.
So far, everyone was nice. 
School was fairly easy.
Leslie stuck by my side.
So everything was okay. 

I went ahead and sat next to him.

I was closer to Ray than anyone else at this point.
I mean, Norman and Emma were my greatest friends, but Ray... he was different.

How? I didn't know just yet.

I think it had to do with the meaning of 'I love you' but I wasn't sure.

Ray was always protective of me.
Even at school, he would make sure no one tried to touch or do anything to me.
So he did that by sticking to my side, keeping his hand in mine.

It was strange to other people though. They asked if we were dating and said Ray had a crush on me.
Both which Ray didn't completely deny, he just ignored them, while I shook my head.

About a year ago, I asked him about it at school...

--

I sat next to Ray at a tree as we always did together during lunch.

"Ray, why do people ask that?"
I asked him.

He shrugged.
"They're weirdos, bu- Y/n,"
He said.

That happened a lot with him.
He always said something like 'butter' before correcting himself and saying my name.

"But why?"
I asked him.
"Ray, I know there's more to it."

He sighed softly and looked over to me.
"They're not like us... holding hands takes a lot for those wusses. They think we're doing it to show we're more than friends,"
He tried to explain.

I nodded slightly.
"But aren't we more than friends, Ray?"
I asked.

His face practically lit up, but it seemed like he tried to stay calm. His face was pink.
"Um-"

"Since we're family... best friends," I said.

His smile faltered but he nodded.
"Yeah..."
He muttered.

I was confused but I nodded back as I continued to eat.

Ray must've spotted someone, someone mean, because he wrapped his arm around me.

I smiled at him, then continued to eat.

--

Ray glanced at me but he didn't say anything.

Leslie turned to face him and meowed, seeming to want to start a conversation.

Ray gave him attention, petting him.

.

Hours passed and we were still there.

Ray and I had started to read the same book, competing against each other on who could read it faster.

Ray was winning, obviously.

Ray then stood up, closing the book.
"I win!"
He told me.

I would've been bummed, but his smile made up for it.

I chuckled, smiling brightly.
"We should go, it's getting late,"
Ray then said.

I nodded and stood up, putting all the books back before leaving with him.

My eyes widened as I looked at the sky.
"Ray... the stars.."
I said softly.

His eyes widened as well.
There was so much...

"I've always dreamed to see this much stars..."
I said softly.

(Eyyyy dreamed to see stars
The title is dreaming for stars
Haha.. so funny haha)

Ray smiled slightly.
"I'm glad this is a dream come through for you then,"
He said.

Leslie looked excited as he watched us, his tail swishing happily.

Ray hesitantly took his hand in mine.
I smiled and tightly held his.

"Y/n..."
He started.

"I... I... I want to tell you something,"
He said.

"What is it?"
I asked with a smile.

"I love I'm the one watching this with you,"
He told me, his voice soft.

I smiled slightly, my heart fluttered again.
"Me too..."
I said softly.

He turned to me and stared a while.

"What?"
I asked with a chuckle.

"I..."
He bit his lip then looked at me with determination.

"I love you. I love you so much..."
He said.

My eyes widened slightly, my face felt hot.
I didn't know why... I didn't even know what he meant...

"Wh... what do you mean?"
I asked softly.

"Gosh, butterfly,"
He chuckled.

"It means I want to be with you, together. I want to date you and love you... but not like a family or friend way."
He said.

"I want to... I want to kiss you and tell you everyday how much I love you. I love you, I always have.."
He says softly.

My eyes were wide.
"I want to... I want all of that too, Ray. I love you too,"
I told him.

He beamed and cupped my face in his hands.
My heart started to beat slightly faster as I leaned up, wrapping my arms around his neck and kissing him gently.
He kissed back, holding me closer to him.

My hands weave into his hair and his hands left my face, wrapping around my waist.

Once we pulled away, we both chuckled softly.

I looked up at the stars once more. My eyes went wide as everything rushed back to me.

...

"I just want you to be happy, butterfly. No matter what,"
He told me.

I chuckle softly.
"I'm happy with you, Ray. Nothing will change that. I love you for forever,"
I said softly.

He smiled and hugged me tightly.

--

Tears brimmed in my eyes and I turned to him, wrapping my arms around him once more.

"I love you, I love you so much, Ray,"
I said softly.

He smiled and ran his hand through my hair.
"I love you too, butterfly..."
He said.

We walked home silently.
..

..

..

..

I lay beside Ray, looking at the ceiling.

We normally shared a bed. There was no reason... it's just what we did.

I was snuggled up to Ray, enjoying his warmth.

"I can't sleep..."
I muttered slighty.

Ray nodded slightly.
"I understand..."
He said, then he smiled.

Then, he started to hum/sing something softly under his breath.
What he was humming early.

"What's that song?"
I asked softly.

"Mama sang it from time to time.."
He told me, stopping for a second, then he continued.

"I miss her..."
I said softly.

Ray smiled, he seemed to know I remembered now.
"Me too..."

"I miss Pa- Yuugo and Lucas too..."
I added.

"They're happier now... we've got to remember that,"
He said.

"I love you, Ray.."
I said softly, kissing his cheek.

"I love you too,"
He said, kissing my forehead, snuggling close to me.

I nodded and leaned close to him.
He continued to sing it and it put me to sleep immediately.

I was glad... to have Ray.

...

....

The End.
