Walking through the halls at school someone catches my eye, I look over and see Ace. I walk over to him and his friends turn around and greet me with my deadname and Ace turns around.
"Hey Gaia, how are you?" he asks grabbing my hand. All his friends walk off with a disgusted look on their face. Ace starts walking into the boys restroom dragging me with him. I become hesitant.
"I..I don't think I can g..go in there." I stutter. He tugs on my hand once more as i scan the halls and I give in and walk in the restroom. He pulls me into a tight hug and we just stood there.
"I'm sorry my friends are such assholes, I wish they'd see you for who you are and just support us. I love you Gaia." He hugs me tighter. I could feel tears forming in my eyes.
"I love you too Ace." I managed to spit out. I try to fight back the tears. I feel a tear run down my cheek, I try to wipe it off before it lands on Ace's shoulder. I was too late and it landed on his shoulder and he looks at me.
"Gaia? Are you okay? What's wrong?" He wipes the tears off my face as I break down crying more. I walk over and slide down the wall pulling my knees to my chest hiding my face.
"If I was born male we wouldn't have this problem. I wouldn't have to worry about you getting made fun of for dating someone who's trans. I'm sorry I make it harder for you Ace." I cover my face and cry more. Ace walks over and sits next to me and holds me.
"Gaia, you don't have to worry about me getting made fun of. I don't care about what they have to say. I love you for you and they should too. And if they don't, then oh well they're missing out on a great guy." He kisses my cheek and stands up.
I smile and look at him. He holds his hands out and I grab them. He pulls me into another hug. As we head out of the bathroom one of his friends walk in and pull him aside and I walk out. I stand outside and listen to them talking
"Ace, you shouldn't be dating a girl like that. They're many other girls out there that are dying to date you and you're blind to it. You play their feelings man and that's not okay." His friends says getting uncomfortable.
"Listen Gaia isn't a girl, he is an amazing guy who deserves so much more than he gets. Plus you know I don't care about those girls, they mean nothing compared to him. And if you don't accept it then leave." Ace storms out of the bathroom and grabs my hand and drags me to his locker.
"W..what was that a..about?" I manage to say without hesitation. I look at him tearing up again. He grabs my face and looks into my eyes and kisses me.
"He's kissing me? He's really kissing me, in school, for the first time. Why would he do it here? To prove a point?" I think to myself. He pulls away and smiles. I look at the ground blushing and look down the hall to see his friend looking at us in discomfort and storms off angrily.
