Two ear's and a Tail

23

we come around the corner and i see an old looking school, it has gates around it, "it looks creepy!" i mutter and Devlin laughs.

"not as creepy as they used to look i can tell you that!" he says and i park the car and look at him, "yes, i'm old, too old to be called old, i'm acent more then anything!" he says like it's normal, "but it's also a good school, it's private and we have uniforms to wear but there's not a lot of people who go to this school so we thought it would be best for you, regardless of this fact, almost all the students who come out, come out with impressive grades in all subjects-" the carpark is pretty big, but the building is massive, there are loads of windows and it's made of brick, it looks dark and creepy...but it's a new start... and this time i have Devlin, so i'll be okay.

we return home after two hours of driving around. i park the car between the two houses i call home. we both get out and i go streight to Devlin and give him a big kiss, i hold him tightly and then pull back, "thank you so much!" i say and he smiles.

"it's my pleasure!" he says and pulls me back to a kiss.

i decide to stay in my tall form as we walk back in, i lean my head on his shoulder as we walk, still feeling so hyper about the car he bought me, i feel kind of guilty, i'm not able to buy him anything in return because of...well, not having an educationg or able to get a job-, "i don't care, Ashley!" i look up to him, "i really don't care, i've got enough money to buy out anything, i could buy out this whole land!" he says and i look down.

"that still doesn't mean you should spend it all on me!" i say to him softly and he smiles.

"like i said, i've lived a very long time, i own objects that belong in museums of acient history!" he says and i raise a brow.

"how old are you?" i ask curiously and he breaths a laugh.

"old!" he simply says, looking away.

"you don't know?" i ask, and he shakes his head.

"i know when i was born of course, but-" he shrugs, "i lost track of time!" he shrugs, "in fact, since you stormed into my life i didn't care about time either!" he says simply and i look up at him.

"why?" i ask and he looks down.

"everyone dies, that's why!" he says simply, "i don't want you to die!" he says and i let out a long breath.

"do you have any idea how many times i've tried?" i ask and he growls, snapping his head up to look at me.

"what?!" he asks and i laugh nervously.

"i-i've tried before, you know, to-to-" i take a breath, "commit suicide!" i say slowly, carefully and quietly and he just looks at me, "my life was shit, Devlin, i stopped trying around fifteen years old and just walked through life like it was just.....boring but deffinatly scary!" i explain and he pulls me into a hug, i wrap my arms around his shoulders and let out a breath.

"never again!" he says and i nod.

"even if i did try again, which i'm not, it wouldn't work!" i say and he holds me tighter, "the magic coursing through me stops a hella lot of things!" i say into his shoulder, breathing in his gloreous scent, "i stop aging and growing at sixteen so, wether it's something to do with a power i got at the time or just...happened, i don't know if i can die!" i mumble and he lets out a long breath.

"well just so you know, if you try to die...i'm not going to let you!" he says and i feel something poke my heart, i shudder at the tingles, he smirks, "plus, you said you stole Oliver's wings right? so may be him giving you his power stopped death for you, he's an angel after all, he can't die from age or illness or anything like that, however he can die from lets say, being shot in the chest by a gun, however you could have a power that shields you from that!" he explains and i nod, understanding.
