Catie and Kai were in the movie theater together, waiting for the trailers to end.
"So Kai, you never told me what happened to your anniversary plan?"
Catie poked Kai on the side, making him laugh.
"Oh yeah. I hit that."
Catie gasped and punched him in the arm.
"Ow damn Catie! I was kidding! It went just the way I planned it would. It was a fun night. She fell asleep in my arms during the first movie at my place. "
Catie smiled, and took a sip of the soda.
"Awh, that's so cute!"
Kai smiled, and snatched the soda from her hands, taking a sip.
"Yeah, real cute."
Tao was standing behind Catie, without her knowing.
"Hey Kai, I'm gonna go use the bathroom."
Kai nodded and waved.

Catie walked out the bathroom and started heading back to the movie room. Tao quickly pushed her back against the wall, covering her mouth.
"Don't scream. Also, let me talk...please."
He slowly removed his hand away from Caties mouth. She crossed her arms and gave him a stern look.
"What do you want? Do you want to hurt Kai? Or do you want me to leave him?"
Tao shook his head and pinned Catie against the wall once again.
"Nothing like that! I'm sorry for being jealous and trying to hurt your close friend....it's just...."
Tao started crying, but proceeded to talk.
"It's because it's forbidden in the guardian world to be in love with a human. And when I see you and Kai having fun and acting close, it reminds me that you would be better off with a human being! You wouldn't have to deal with the guardian fight, or having to message me when you're around people, or even hide me from your friends! If you were with a human...you wouldn't have to deal with all that bullshit!"
Tao kicked the water fountain next to them, breaking it.
Catie put her hand on his shoulder, pulling him down.
"Tao, you're right. If I was with a human, I wouldn't have to deal with the fight, the hiding, or the messaging....but don't you ever think?! I told you that I was in love with YOU! I wouldn't have told you that if I wanted to be with a human, dumbass."
Tao gave a frown.
"Dumbass?"
"And, I don't care about hiding you from others. It just means that I'm the only one that knows you out here. Also, having a guardian as a boyfriend is a special thing. How many humans can say that? Only me. So I don't care if you're a guardian or even a devil. I'm in love with you, not with what you are, remember that."
Catie smiled and kissed Tao on the tip of his nose.
"I have to get back to a movie with a close FRIEND. You're more than welcomed to come."
Tao smiled and wrapped his hand around Caties.
"I would like that."
