The Starry Night and the Lonely Two (星降りの夜とさみしいふたり, Hoshifuri no Yoru to Samishii Futari?) is a newly written short story included in Violet Evergarden ~Last Letter~, a compilation of previously written short stories.
Summary[]
Gilbert and Violet look over the letters Violet receives from the people she met during her travels. Gilbert feels a little jealous of her letters but doesn't ask her too many questions about the people she receives them from.
One day, Violet receives a letter from Leon. She tells Gilbert about him and how he taught her about the stars. Gilbert asks her why she reports to him every time she receives a letter. She replies that she wants to share her memories of her experiences with him. Gilbert advises her to use stationery with stars drawn on them to send her reply, and she happily agrees. Seeing that, Gilbert realizes he feels envious of Leon.
Gilbert finds Violet rereading Leon's letter many times. She tells him that she wants to memorize it. Some time later, she asks to go out to observe a comet Leon told her about. Leon had told her in detail how and when to observe it. Violet asks Gilbert to come with her, and he agrees.
The couple buy a telescope and head to a nearby hill to observe the comet. As they look up at the sky, they talk about the people that they know looking up at the same sky as them. Gilbert confesses that he feels lonely even when they are together, because he's in love with her, but it diminishes slightly the more they nestle close to each other. The two reaffirm their desire to be together for the rest of their lives and kiss.
