Biting his lip he was going through the last few seconds of their conversation in his head, trying to figure out what it could have possible been that had upset her. He was so lost in thought that he was completely taken by surprise when all of sudden he felt Kurumi's hand on his shoulder. Tilting his head to the side a little, he glanced down at her hand before looking back up at her. "I-" What was he supposed to say to that? That hearing her say that made him incredibly happy?
"You're a really good friend too, Kurumi." And then because he genuinely felt the need to add that, he said, "Thank you." For what he wasn't entirely sure. For being his friend, he supposed. Watching her return her attention to the telescope, Lewis waited a moment before doing the same after having set down his now-empty mug onto the blanket. He tried very hard to keep his gaze on what he could see of the sky through the telescope, even though it somehow turned out to be quite hard.
And he still hadn't spotted Neptune.
"
Did I....say something weird?" she asked innocently, cocking her head to the side like a confused kitten - minus the ears. Those didn't appear on top of her head unless she was really embarrassed about something. In fact, the last time that had happened had been in front of Jonathan when he had managed to make her blush about something or another for the umteenth time. She sure hoped that he was alright, back home under his father's scrutinizing eye. Thankfully, her sort of pondering expression was masked by the darkness, so she didn't appear as though she were zoning out.
Eyes back to looking through the telescope and finding that elusive Neptune. She found Sirius again...as well as Regulus and a whole bunch of other stars that had long and complicated names that included a series of numbers and letters of the alphabet. When her telescope landed on the moon, she knew she had gone too far. Now WHERE was the planet? It couldn't have just vanished, could it? Planets just didn't do that.
Referring to her star chart one more time, Kurumi sort of began bouncing in place. "
Lewis, I think I've finally found it," she exclaimed as she looked at Lewis, leaning over a bit so that she could try and adjust his telescope as well. "
Just over there. It looks really really small, but that's it." Okay, so it wasn't as exciting as her eyes made it out to be, but mission was accomplished and Neptune had been spotted!
