We defeated more Deviants again. It was just a everyday thing, everyone looked up to us as if we were gods, Thena was already one, but you get the point. The humans of Babylon are throwing a party for our honor of saving them. I decided to go, because why not, every now and then, I deserve to have some fun.

"Phastos!" I yelled as I swayed into the room he was in. He making more of his inventions. "Lets go! Ajak said we have to go." I grabbed his arm, trying to drag him out.

"Not right now Celeste. I got to finish this. Plus, Ajak doesn't need to know that I stayed here, because you are going to cover for me."

"Hes been working all night." Druig said as he smiled as he hid himself in the corner. Phastos looks at him.

"Who was talking to you?"

"Nice try, but she will make you. See you down there, where the fun is!" I looked at Druig, walking up to him. "Aren't you going?"

"In a bit. I want to be here when Ajak catches him."

"Again, who invited you here?" Phastos sighs. I teleported down to the ground. Everyone was dancing, drinking, laughing. This is what I want to experience. The fun! It had me so happy and filled with joy.

I danced around with the humans, laughing and smiling. Druig came down and watched as I smiled. I snuck out of the dance and saw Makarri running with antiques, gold and jewelry. I picked up a necklace that caught my eye.

"The beautiful Celeste." Druig comes behind me and grabs the necklace from my hands. He looks at it and then at me. "My, dont you have sticky fingers." His accent made me feel like I was under a spell- wait, no, stop. What I meant was it made me feel, ugh, fine, as if I was under a spell. I mean, it's attractive, but when he does that thing, the low whisper, thats it, im undone.

"What? Cant resist." I smiled as I looked at it as it dangled from his hand.

"For a necklace?" He leans forward to me.

"A beautiful necklace." I corrected him.

"Hm." All he did was hummed.

"Dont hm me." I sassed back. I tried to get the necklace back but all he did was extended his arm higher.

"Markkri." He calls. She runs in and he gives her the necklace back. She looks at me. "Saw someone digging through your treasure." Makkari shakes her head at me.

"Yeah yeah, im sorry." I signed back. She ran back and I crossed my arms to look at Druig. "You are something else."

"Im just Druig." He said proudly.

"Exactly." I strutted away. Druig watched as I walked away.

All he thought about was how beautiful she is. The suit, the short dress, looked so good on her, showing off her legs, the black with green details just looked so good. Druig stops and sees a little boy giving her a flower and Celeste kissing his cheek. Druig smiles and snaps at the chaos of drunken men, yelling and shoving, pointing knives at each other. He walked up to the fight that was going on besides Celeste and the little boy, controlling their minds and making them stop. Celeste walks up to him, facing him.

"You know you are supposed to let them have conflict, not to intervene, right? Ajak's words." I said to him as I slapped his chest.

"And she also said that stealing is also very, very bad." He turns to me, having that damn smirk. Everytime he does that, a little part of me melts or my stomach hurts, but in a good way.

"I wasn't stealing, i was borrowing." I shrugged it off by tilting my head and he lifted up his chin, still having that same hot- i mean NOT hot smirk... yeah... Druig followed me, just to annoy me, but I liked it.

"Sure it is." We headed up to a ledge and watched the humans and the team celebrate.

"Wanna dance?" I put my hand out, waiting for him to take it. The music was loud, nobody around, might as well. "Lets put away the children in us, for now. Come on!"

"Fine." He slaps his hand on mine and pulled me closer to him. "You better not tell anyone." He looks up at the sky.

"Fine by me." I shrugged it off. We swayed from the beat and then he spins me around, slowly. This is great, no calling us out, no getting into our faces, nothing. "Can I ask you something?"

"What?" We still continued to dance.

"When you use your powers, do you hear everything in their heads?" He takes a minute to think.

"Yes." He lets go and walks over the ledge and looks down at the humans. "A lot of people want a lot of things." Druig brings me closer to him, his blue eyes turned a golden yellow, controlling their minds. He lifted his arm and started pointing. "He wants money, shes wondering if should marry that man and that boy wonders if he should tell his mother about the new ball he just lost." For some reason, I felt comfortable with him, he felt safe. I can just tell him anything.

"I know we're not supposed to get attached but, the way they dance, laugh, love, just makes me want to try it out. They all look so happy." I confessed, my head in my hands, admiring the people below us.

"I see you doing that." Druig gently elbows me.

"Really?" I chuckled and took a glance at him. He kept looking down.

"Even though you are a pain in the ass, I feel like you have so much happiness, you can change the world with that."

"Wow, did you just complement me?" He shakes his head. "You did, didn't you!?"

"Not a word." I put my hands up and Gil comes up.

"We have to go, we found more." Druig lets me go first and we followed Gil back to the Domo.

"Where have you two been?" Sprite asked. Druig and I stood there. We didn't do anything bad. Why didn't we say anything to them.

"Probably making out under a bridge." Kingo plays around, tossing himself onto the couch.

"Caught them on the ledge."

"Oooh a ledge, what you guys do? Druig reading your dirty-"

"Okay!" I yelled to stop them from something that will keep me up all night. "Can we not? We just needed some air."

"From all that kissing." Kingo signs to Makkari, who laughs.

"We didn't do anything. Just drop it." Druig said and walked away. The room stayed quiet, awkward.

"If he has under his control, we can set you free Celeste. We know that you would never kiss him." Phastos comes up to me. I shrugged off his arm off of me.

"You guys are idiots." I sassed and headed back to my room, but on my way there, I went to Druig's room. The door was slightly open and I knocked before I came in. He was sitting on his bed, his room was dark and woodsy. It suited him. "Hi." He looks up and sighs.

"Celeste." He clears his throat. "What?"

"They're just idiots, they wouldn't understand our relationship." I got closer to him, sitting next to him. "Yeah?" He nods.

"What I said was true." I placed my hand on his cheek. He was so warm.

"Thank you Dru." I placed a kiss on his cheek and headed to my room and then realized what I did. The feeling in my stomach twisted and turned and my hands got cold. What was I feeling?
