"I don't wanna let this go.
I don't wanna lose control.
I just wanna see the stars with you.
And I don't wanna say goodbye.
Someone tell me why.
I just wanna see the stars with you."

Song: The Fault in Our Stars — Troye Sivan

When they got back to the beach, Louis slowly parked the boat by the dock and started talking to Asher about him going back to the marina with Eric to bring their boats to dock. Harry and Andie were the last ones off the boat, besides Asher who was ready to take off.

Instead of walking down to the beach like all his friends, Harry sat down on the end of the dock and sent her a smile before patting the dock to tell her to sit down with him. She couldn't help but smile before she nodded and sat down with him, her towel draped over her shoulders like a cape.

The two of them watched Asher take off with the boat and when he was gone, they were left in silence.

"I can't believe how fast the sun set," Harry spoke first, looking up at the darkened sky.

"Yeah," Andie agreed, looking up at the stars.

She couldn't believe how many of them were out already, and how clear and bright the sky was. Where she lived in Nevada, the night sky was usually drowned out by the lights of Vegas and it was hard to get a good view of the stars. But here, in New Jersey, even with Manhattan less than an hour away, she could see so many.

When she looked back over at Harry, he was already looking at her and she couldn't help but smile.

"What?" She asked, interested in knowing what he was thinking.

"What?" He asked, smirking back at her and she couldn't help but breath out a laugh and roll her eyes.

She bit her lip as the two of them looked out across the water.

"You know, that was pretty cool earlier," Andie started to say.

"What was?"

"Calling out your friend for littering in the lake. Most people wouldn't," she said, smiling over at him.

"Well, then most people are idiots," he chuckled.

"Seriously though. That was cool," she said, knocking her shoulder against his.

"Uh. Thanks, I guess," he chuckled and she couldn't help but chuckle too.

There was literally a split second of silence between the two of them before Harry started talking again, almost like getting complimented made him uncomfortable and it was so endearing.
