"Those three stars there, they're called Orion's Belt. And their individual names are Alnitak, Alnilam and Mintaka. Nicknamed the hunter." "By you?" He laughed whilst slowly shaking his head from side to side, drawing a curved line from his chin onto his chest. "I'm good, but I ain't that good." He paused and I took that moment to look up at him. "If I do say so myself, they're the most beautiful stars I have ever known. Whenever I look up to the sky full of constellations and see those three stars, boy, I feel like I'm right back at home." I'll never forget that moment. I will forever remember the sparkle in his eyes where the starry night reflected off of his pupils. The smile on his face was real. That's the only way I can describe it, real. To this day it was the realist smile I have ever seen. He spoke with passion and love, and it was about something that he could never hold or touch, but it was his happiness. Maybe that was why he slept with both eyes open, to watch as the stars glistened in the sky. I'm not scared to die Kurt. If anything I'm upset. Not because in a few days I will be bleeding from the inside out, but because of the one thing I have always wanted that I will now never experience: love.
