stars were beautiful until i met you

Stargazing, that was what you two were doing as of the moment.

You told the lilac haired male that you wanted to have a peaceful night after the events that had just occurred a moment ago.

Now there you were, sitting on a chair in the garden as you watched the night sky with tranquility.

"Hey," the moment of silence broke when you suddenly spoke, "your name.."

He looked at you with a raised brow, "Hm?"

"Your name's Takashi, right?" you looked at him with a smile, he was confused by the sudden question but nodded.

"It is, why do you ask?" now you were making eye contact, and he noticed that you were smiling more than usual, though he didn't know he was the cause of that.

"Then.." you closed your eyes, turning to the stars once more, "can I call you that from now on?"

If he wasn't as surprised a minute ago, then he surely was surprised now. "I mean, I don't mind, but why so suddenly?"

"Because the one month contract or whatever is over."

Takashi stared at you, bewildered by your unexpected words while you only looked at him with confusion written all over your face.

"Why are you so surprised? Didn't his and her majesty tell you?" you tilted your head.

He blinked at your question, "No..?"

"Wait what does the contract have to do with the first name thing? Are you firing me? Did you usually ask your past servants their first names before you fire them?" Takashi rambled in panic.

As he rambled, you stared at him with adoration rather than answering any of his questions.

If someone told yourself many days ago that you would fall for a commoner in the future, then you'd immediately order the guards to execute the person because it was too stupid and ridiculous to be true.

But little did you know, you'd be watching the stars beside the commoner you fell for panics beside you.

Stars were beautiful, they shined bright in the night sky, making the darkness beautiful with just mere hints of light.

Stars were beautiful, but it dulled in comparison to your magnificent servant.

Mitsuya Takashi was gorgeous, even if you viewed him as trash just a couple days ago. When you looked at him closely, you could see loveliest features even in the night.

If Takashi was anything else but himself, he'd be a meteor shower.

A star, but more beautiful and rare. A show, but more interesting, like your favorite movie.

There wasn't anyone you met who was like him. But now you realized, if you were to meet someone like him, you wouldn't feel any sort of love or romance towards the person.

It just had to be exactly him.

Since he was a meteor shower, you had to make a wish of course.

You made a wish to him, you wished for him. Just him, to last forever. You wanted the meteor shower to last forever.

But you wanted the meteor shower to be yours, just a show made for you.

"Calm down, Takashi." his ramble stopped when he looked at you, who was giving him a soft smile.

"You're gonna be my official servant now."

His eyes widened, he couldn't believe his ears, were you serious?

"Wha-" he was cut off when he suddenly felt your head lay on his shoulder, your eyes were closed as another smile formed on your lips.

"Let's save your shock for tomorrow, I wanna have silence with you right now."

Takashi complied, letting you rest on his shoulder.

As you fell to your slumber, he watched you, thinking the same thing you thought about just moments ago.

- ღ -

"Takashi! You make clothes right?" you asked excitedly.

You were walking in the halls of the palace, apparently there was a meeting you had to attend to with your parents.

The palace was huge, larger than a city. And the meeting took place in an office that was quite far from your room, which was the location you and Takashi were at.

"How did-" he paused, "oh, Luna and Mana."

"I'll take that as a yes, anyways! There will be a birthday ball that will happen in a few days, and I'll need a designer to make a dress for me, can you do it?"

Takashi looked at you in disbelief, "You want a commoner to design your ballgown?"

"I want you to design my ballgown! And oh, we're here." you stared at the large door as Takashi was just astonished by how tall it was.

You carefully opened it, revealing everyone who was invited already there.

A woman chuckled when she saw your face, "I see that everyone's here, your highness surely took her sweet time."

Then she noticed another figure behind you, "Ah, is that your lover?"

Misa quickly told Akito to calm down as he glared at Takashi in anger. The lilac haired male was purely flustered on the other hand, "He's my butler, but enough of that, kindly tell us why you gathered us here."

She chuckled as you sat down, offering Takashi a seat to which he immediately decline and stood behind you.

"As you know, in a few days, Flora Lola, also known as me, will be having a party to honor my thirty seventh birthday." she said, everyone in the room clapped except for the royalties.

Flora was a very important noble, she was a friend of Misa and had helped her a lot throughout her life as a queen.

"Everything has been planned, except for one thing."

Then she turned to you and you gave her a raised brow, "Princess, you don't have a dress."

"We'll be needing a fashionable designer, does anyone have any recommendations for this lovely princess?" she stared at everyone with a smile.

You immediately raised your hand as the servant behind you sweat dropped, hoping that you wouldn't recommend him.

"Yes, your highness?" smiling sweetly at you, you coughed before saying what you were about to say.

"I have a recommendation," everyone's head turned to you, "Takashi, my servant, is an aspiring fashion designer, and I'd like to have him to design my dress."

Everyone went to a room of silence for a moment.

"WHAT?!"
