a/n: Happy Birthday to our shining ace!!! Truly you are brighter than any star in this world and I hope you continue on your dreams and inspire so many people

( ˘ ³˘)♥ we love you, Bokuto san!!!

Stars are captivating during the might sky. Many are mesmerized by the glimmering, sparkles they occur and would get lost into them, just staring in awe with no words to describe the kind of euphoria they were in.

Luckily tonight happened to be thr most beautiful night for the stars to form their utmost of shine and dancing across the dark sky.

With a bottle of wine half empty placed on the gray blanket above the grassy ground and snacks that had been already consumed not too long ago, the only sound that can be heard was the singing of crickets and the soft, cooling gust of wind tickling your naked shoulders, everything felt so calming.

Head empty, just cherishing the aura the night possessed.

And the small, circular cake that lit up candles with cute designs illuminating your front view, biting back the smile and erupting a giggle from the excitement bubbling in you as you stared at the grown man infront of you.

"Kou."

He hums at the same level of bliss you had. He had his eyes closed after chowing down into the food you had prepared for him, now he was feeling a bit drowsy after satisfying his stomach. He was always like this after every meal you shared with him, it usually ends up to a lont day of cuddling session and soon a night's peaceful sleep.

Except now was a special night for him. The skin intimacy can wait later.

"Can you turn around for me?"

He did as he was told nonetheless, the sight made your breath hitch and your eyes now strained onto the scenario right infront of you.

He looked so adorable with a smile adorning his feature with the candle lights making his face glow. The background behind him was the city lights of Tokyo and last the unmatched glimmer of the night sky twinkling that made his owl like hair highlight into the palette of colors.

The grin on his face growing even more than his usual smirk during the games at the sight of you obviously in daze because of him. From his view, he was looking at you with the same drey eyes you had in you. He looked at you in a different kind of gleem; one that was far from how he looks at a volleyball or his passion.

This look was for the love of his life— You.

"Baby, you look like you've something so unreal."

He lets out an airy laugh at the peak of your lips that have parted seconds ago from being lost in the scene.

"Sometimes I really think you're ethereal, Kou."

Every detail of his small movements you can see, he was biting his lips from squealing on how cute you were being in a love dazed trance, and part of him was biting back the blush from the sweet casts of worded spells that escaped your lips.

Every praise and compliment you would offer him with full sincerity and love has decorated his thoughts from the day you became his, brighter things became impossibly blinding for him as your love grew for him.

From highschool sweethearts, his university baby, his number one fan and to his now proposed fiancee. Everything was getting brighter yet he chooses not to look away from the glow you in this world of his exists.

And who are you to hide that you think the same to your soon to be husband?

"I tried making today perfect for your birthday. I'm sorry I could only think of this, you must've been tired from practice, I didn't want you to have to dress up formally if we were going to celebrate in a restaurant."

He had always made everyday seem like a life anyone would kill for. Everyday was like a fairytale coming true with him, and yet the guilt and thoughts of you doing less in a relationship to give him what he truly deserves is always there.

"How can you say this isn't already perfect when you're the only one topping all of these?"

So slick and sly, and so heart warming of him to assure your ocean of anxieties. There isn't a day Bokuto would leave you in that mind of yours and a day where he never speaks what his heart wanted you to hear.

"Then," crawling closer to him with your knees on the blanket, holding the cake steadily in front of him with your back shielding the candles from the calmed wind, you raised it up a little to his lips level and smiled lovingly,

"Will you make a wish?"

Life seemed to always have been on his side since the day he had graduated. He had mastered being the "Only Ace" that didn't need to be coddled anymore, he had become the official starting member of a world famous volleyball team which was the Black Jackals as his passionate job and dream, became Japan's strongest team, he had the loving supporting friends, family and fans from all around the world, and now he had the girl who has always been there for him soon to become his wife.

What more can he ask if all his wishes came true in a blink of an eye?

He thought about it carefully. It seemed childish to believe that wishes do come true, but when his eyes were settled on your dreamy ones, everything that has happened in his life came by in a flash as he grows another age older, another opportunity to make more beautiful memories.

And so, with his eyes closed and a soft smile on his face, he blows out the candles from the cake, the oddly satisfying smell of the fire coming off filling your nostrils as the delicious scent of the pastry follows.

Grinning with your eyes crinkling as well, you began to cut a small slice for the both of you to enjoy as the night was closing in to its end. It had been a fun evening, just you, him, piled in food and the beautiful atmosphere other's wouldn't be able to witness. It was all too good.

"So, what did you wish for?"

Both of you were chewing on the soft sponge cake as your head was on his shoulder, his arm around yours to keep you warm after noticing how you were shivering a lot a whole ago.

He swallows his dessert down, licking the left over frosting in his lips with his hand instinctively rubbing your shoulders as a small sign of affection and soothing touch for him. He just loved how his hands were bigger and able to hold your soft, warm body against him.

"I wished for you to be as happy as I am now."

You loved how he would smile with his teeth showing. Only even more with the stars and moon highlighting his prominent features, and only you were able to witness this because he was all yours.

"You didn't have to give me your wish. You're lucky I made a wish for you as well."

"And what would that be, baby?"

The next line he hears coming from you made his heart race and his face heated. But he didn't over react to it, instead, he had pulled you even closer, placing both your emptied plates down as he muzzles his face on the side of your exposed neck, not before pulling your face for his own birthday kiss and muttering in your ear how he was anticipating his extra birthday gift later at your shared home when he noticed how short and revealing your dress was for the occasion.

"I wish you would continue to shine in your own way. Because for the longest time, you have always been the brightest star in the world."
