The stars were a million twinkling instances of intimacy between the luminous moon and the seamless sky. Each glowing light signified a tender caress by the moon that left a permanent mark on the sky's heart. Hoseok's mother called it the greatest tango before dawn. The moment where fantasy dissolves into reality and coy glances burn under the sun's embrace.

Hoseok was seven years old, when his mother exposed the truth behind the stars. And, at twenty, Hoseok was the moon and Min Yoongi became the sky he hung from.

They fell in love where a cape of lavender twilight collided with a wavering horizon. It was dawn, the realm of truth, and Hoseok sat in the sand with the white tides tickling at the cuffs of his jeans. When Yoongi kissed him on the mouth for the first time like he meant it. Like their stars wouldn't vanish like the rest. 

And foolishly, Hoseok believed him.
