Saturday nights were Keefe's favorite. Sophie and Linh would come over to Keefe and Tam's apartment in Atlantis, and they would all watch an old human movie. Sophie provided the movie and Tam provided the snacks. Keefe always felt peaceful, curled up on the couch with his head on Tam's shoulder, while Linh begged Sophie not to spoil the movie.

"Love, Simon." Sophie said, popping in the DVD.

"Sounds... interesting?" Tam said.

"Oh, you guys are going to love it." Sophie said, smiling.

"What's it about?" Linh asked.

"You'll have to see." Sophie said.

Keefe groaned. "Just tell me it's not boring."

"It's not boring."

"That was so sweet." Linh sighed. "Good movie, Sophie."

"It's a good story." Sophie said. "Did you like it, Keefe?"

"What? Oh, yeah." Keefe said sleepily. He sat up.

"Tam can never stay awake through a movie, can he?" Linh said, pointing to her sleeping brother.

"Nope." Keefe laughed. He shoved Tam, not hard enough to hurt, but just enough to wake him. "Wake up Tammy."

Tam sleepily tried to push Keefe's hand away, but Keefe grabbed Tam's hand and twined their fingers together.

"Wake up, Tam."

"I don't wanna." Tam said.

"Fine, I'll just leave you here on the couch and have the bed all to myself." Keefe said.

"No!" Tam protested. "Half of that bed is mine."

"Then you'll have to get off the couch."

"Fine." Tam sat up, yawning.

Linh and Sophie were watching them, trying not to laugh. The two boys argued all the time, but it was clear that they loved each other.

"We'd better go now." Linh said. "Sleep well."

She and Sophie got up off the couch, hugged Tam and Keefe, and left.

"What did you think of the movie?" Keefe asked Tam.

"I only saw half of it. It seemed kinda weird."

"You monster." Keefe said, pretending to be offended.

Tam laughed. He kissed Keefe briefly.

"Do you want to take a walk with me?" He asked.

"Sure."
