Beyond the Fault of the Stars?

“The Fault in our Stars”, he whispered, closing the book they just finished reading. “The Fault in our Stars”, she repeated after him, having a smile so painful. She rested her face on his shoulder, and let out a sigh. “What’s the matter”, he asked, noticing a tear in her eye. “It’s so beautiful”, she let out a cry. He took her in his arms and held her so tight, “Isn’t it?”. They held each other for more than a few minutes, embracing their feeling of love, remembering how it all started.
“They don’t know we lived, Augustus. We lived beyond death, our love was our heartbeat”, she held his face like she was holding a pearl in her hands. “Yes. We lived past death, inside a star. Inside this star, we’re happy, we’re in love”, Augustus replied, kissing her forehead. “This world, it’s crying for our pain. It’s crying for us. They’ve created words of our love, of our pain. They shall know that we lived. They shall know that we’re in that star that shines the brightest every night. We should let them know we’re alive, Augustus.” He looked into her eyes like he was falling in love all over again. “I love you, Hazel” he spoke, “but how are we going to tell them?”
“Maybe, maybe when the world will witness a falling star, it’ll be our star falling down on earth. The world would wish for a love greater than death, a love that will prove that death cannot do it apart. That love shall be us, again. The world will see us, believe us, cherish our love, and admire our beauty. They will no more cry out in pain for us, watching how death did us apart. They will witness our story being greater than death. They’ll give our love a name, that love that lived together even after death. They’ll call it, LOVE BEYOND THE STARS, the love of Augustus Waters and Hazel Grace.”
They looked down to the world from the star they’re living in. Augustus let a scream, hoping the world would hear him, “ we’re alive, world. It’s us. The love you’ve been crying upon, it’s right here.”
And that’s how they lived, hoping for a day they fall upon the earth, letting the world know that there are two souls stuck on love. It’s love beyond the stars, of Augustus Waters and Hazel Grace.
