“Wake up Nicholas!”
Crap it's my mother. I should have went down by now but the constellation last night was amazing, I had to draw it out this morning.
“I'm coming down in a moment ma!”
She should know by know when I say moment I mean a little more time, I'm sure.
Yes I have already gotten ready for school so I have a bit more time to map the constellation I saw last last, man it was beautiful.
“Hurry up or you'll be late!”
Dammit, guess I'll finish at school.
Just need to make sure to finish this last part, done. Just have to put it in my bag and I'm away.
As I run/jump down the stairs heading for the door I make sure to say my goodbye, mom always gets upset when I don't, I see it in her eyes as I leave.
“Bye mom, have a good day. Love you!”
When I shut the door and I get closer towards the gate I hear her usual goodbye as well.
“You to honey, have a wonderful day!”
Hmmm I wonder what the name of that constellation was last night, couldn't be Aries too many stars, oh well I'll check it out again tonight.
As I arrive at school I see my other classmates just getting here as well.
When walking towards the entrance of my first class I hear tom, my best friend call out to me.
“How's it going four eyes, see anything ‘magical’ last night, hahaa.”
We always bash it out, but it's all in good fun.
“Nah not last night fat ass, but tonight is a rare one we might be getting the clearest and most bright stars!”
Oh man am I excited I haven't experienced something this big my entire life, not even a meteor showers are as amazing.

“Well if it is as great as you say make sure to get pictures I would like to see my sign out there.”
He knows he can join me, he's only come with me a few times but he should know he's welcome anytime.
“Just a reminder you know you can come too, right?”
Tom doesn't forget things easily but I want him to know he is welcome to join me.
“Nah I have something to do after school then heading home, will be asleep soon after, I'll come tomorrow though!”
Ah I forgot, his date, with Emily. He got her first easy as that.
“Well alright man see you after class.”
“Yah see you bro.”
“RRRRRIIIIIINNNNNGGGGG”
Ah there's the bell finally I can go to the secret spot.
I rush home, I have to prepare for tonight, I'll be out very late.
“Bye mom I'll see you tomorrow or later tonight!”
“Love you baby, don't stay up too late I know you packed a sleeping bag, but I still want you to try to get home.”
She's always worrying about me, at least she lets me do this or I might freak out.
“I know mom, love you.”
I almost run to my spot, the spot by the lake.
I found it a few years back with Emily, it was our spot but I guess she felt differently.
I should stop lingering on it but she really did hurt me that day.
As I finally reach the crystal clear water I set up my spot.
Setting my telescope down and putting my bag on it. Checking the time, 8:40 pm, perfect it should start in 3 minutes.
That's when it happened, the most amazing thing I will ever be apart of my entire life.

It will later be known as the Nicholas Light.
The sky light up in a pink hue adding to the stars and the water, it was so attention grabbing I didn't take my eyes off, not for a second.
That's it it's over.
Crap I need to check what time it is!
Good only 5:00 am. I can go to sleep and still be home in time.
I also got those pics for tom, I hope he will be as amazed as me.
Should I show Emily? What if she is uninterested, just like the time she stopped coming.
Stop it nick, it's not time, you witnessed greatness, it's your life. Not hers.
