23. Telescope


He was nineteen tomorrow and his parents were throwing him a huge party. It would be his first year back to working full time, and seeing his friends in over a year. But he couldn’t be happy. Which was why Reid was using his telescope to stare up into the heavens instead of celebrating.

A star began to fall from the sky and Reid yearned to catch it, even though he knew it to be impossible to catch a falling star, despite what that song said. For Reid falling stars were a reminder of the brother he missed so much.
