"I can't believe you talked me into this." You said as you quickly glanced away from the ground that was three stories below you. Somehow, Kai had talked you into climbing onto the roof with him at 1 a.m. so you're parents wouldn't hear you.

"Don't act like you haven't ever wanted to." He replied.

"I've thought about it, but my roof isn't necessarily flat and I have a slight fear of heights." You countered, scooting a bit closer to Kai and away from the edge.

"Don't worry," Kai joked as he put his arm around your shoulder, "I shall protect you."

You scoffed. "My hero." You rolled your eyes playfully and shoved his side slightly as he removed his arm. You weren't gonna lie, you like Kai having his arm around you. As cliche as it sounded, you actually felt safe in his arms.

"I prefer Knight in Shining Armor." He smirked at you. "But hero works, too."

You rolled you eyes again and looked out at the empty street that was lit by the occasional street light. You two sat in silence for a few moments, but it wasn't awkward. Instead, it was peaceful.

Kai was your best friend. You weren't going to lie, you wanted to be more, but just like every other love-struck best friend, you were afraid of ruining what you already had. You and Kai had been friends since you moved into town over a year ago. Yes, Kai was older than you but not by much. Although with you being 17 and him being 22, your parents did find it a little strange that you spent a majority of your time with him.

"Can I confess something?" Kai blurted out.

You turned your head towards him but he was focused on the street you were just staring at. "Sure." You nodded towards him.

"I feel like you're the only person I can actually trust." He said. You didn't know what to say, so you just sat in silence and waited for him to continue. "You're the only one that doesn't judge me for being a Siphoner. I mean, my own family is ashamed of me." He turned to look at you. "Why?"

"Why what?" You asked, confused. You couldn't help but feel slightly guilty in this moment. You had started to form a friendship with Jo that you knew Kai wasn't happy about. He never said anything about it, but you could just tell by the look in his eyes whenever you talked to her.

"Why is it that you are the only person that seems to care about me?" You honestly didn't know how to answer that.

"I don't know." You sighed and looked away. "I mean, I don't see why you being a Siphoner is such a big deal. It's not like you can control it." You looked back up at him and into his mesmerizing eyes.

Kai had told you about the supernatural not long after you became friends. You knew about vampires, werewolves, witches, all of them. He had expected you to be afraid of him afterwards, but it only made you fall harder for him. You didn't tell him that though.

He sighed before looking down at his hands that were in his lap. "The thought of my family angers me. I just wish there were something I could do that would bring them as much pain as they've caused me." You saw his fists clench.

"Hey," you reached into his lap and grabbed his hand, giving it a small squeeze, "it's alright, ok? They're not worth it. If they can't see how great a person you are, they aren't even worth your time."

He kept his glance on your hands and started to stroke your hand with his thumb. "Do you think you could ever hate me?" He asked softly.

You were taken back by his question. "What? Of course not." You said as you shook your head slightly.

"Are you sure?" He looked up at you. "No matter what I did? Is there anything you can think of that would cause you to hate me?"

You eyed him strangely. You weren't sure how to react to his questions. You didn't know if you should be scared or angry. "I can think of things that would make me not want to talk to you anymore, but I honestly can't see myself ever hating you." You replied truthfully.

You sat in silence for a little bit. Kai had avoided eye contact with you and instead kept his eyes on your hands. "(Y/N)," he looked up at you, "I'm probably gonna do something soon, I can't tell you what, but..." He paused for a moment and sighed. "I know for a fact the only thing that would make me regret it is if you hated me afterwards."

"Kai-"

"Wait. I-I just..." He paused again. This was definitely out of character for Kai. He was usually very care free and snarky. Now he seemed vulnerable and truly afraid. "I need to do this at least once before I possibly ruin everything."

You were more confused now than ever. "Kai, what are y-" You were interrupted by his lips being pressed to yours. At first you didn't know how to react, but when you felt him starting to pull away, you put your free hand on the side of his face and pulled him back to you.

You had pictured kissing Kai before, but none of your dreams could compare to the real thing. HIs lips were soft and warm. His touch made you completely melt. Not to mention this was your first kiss. You slowly pulled away and Kai rested his forehead against yours.

"What was that about?" You asked as you glanced from his eyes to his lips. All you wanted to do was pull his face back to yours.

"It's been so long since I've felt any emotion towards anyone. Even when we first met, I didn't like you. But now I can't see my life without you in it." He brought one of his hands to the side of your face and lifted his head to give you a quick peck on the forehead before returning to his previous position. "Just promise me that no matter what, you won't be afraid of me. I will never hurt you. I just need you to remember that."

"I will." You nodded. "But you have to promise me something, too. Promise me you aren't leaving."

A small smile spread across his lips. "Never."
