Azazel POV
Walking up the steps of her house I can't help the butterflies that are forming in my stomach. I pause when I make it to the door, terrified of the possibilities the next five minutes will bring.
I raise my fist, hesitating once more before knocking on her front door. I hear her footsteps and then shes there. Its almost as if I'm seeing her for the first time all over again, her strawberry blonde hair is thrown up in a bun, her eyes are sleep fogged, and shes wrapped in a blanket. She's beautiful.
"oh uh, Azazel I didn't know you'd be coming." A slight blush creeps its way onto her cheeks and I can't help but to smile.
"I had something on my mind. Do you mind if I come in?" She shuffles back letting me through the front door, and I can hear NCIS LA in the background. Its her favorite show. "Do you have time to talk?" she looks nervous but nods, motioning towards the couch. I take a seat and she pauses her show.
"Kaida, I well..." I trail off, not sure if I'm ready to put it out there. She raises a brow, looking nervous as I struggle to speak. "I really like you, like A LOT a lot and I know a lot of shit just went down in the past couple months but even before all that I knew I liked you. But if you don't feel the same I comp-" Her smile is wider than I have ever seen, she's put her hand on top of mine pulling it to her.
"Azazel, stop panicking. I have feelings for you too." I never thought I'd hear those words out of her mouth, I thought I could never love, and never be loved but here we are defying the odds.
"Really?! You truly do?" She nods with a huge grin plastered to her face. I pull her in for a hug and as we start to pull away she grabs my face and we hold eye contact. God I love her eyes. I start to lean in and to my surprise so does she. She's going to kiss me?! Oh lord I almost start to panic, but she doesn't give me enough time because her lips are already on mine and it seems as if fireworks are going off like a huge celebration.
As we pull apart thought her smile begins to fade. "What? Whats wrong?" I hope it wasn't too sudden, or that I upset her.
"Azazel I need to be honest with you, well I need to be honest with everyone but I'll start with you. My family is cursed." I'm very confused, what kind of curse? You would think you'd know about a family line curse in this tiny group.
"What do you mean?" She sighs, her frown getting bigger.
"Look I'm not telling you for pity, more so you know what you're walking into and maybe for some help on breaking it." I nod, still confused about the entire thing. "The curse is because way back my family dabbled in black magic." Oh shit..." Well, now every ten generations of kids, well dies at nineteen..."
"No that's a joke right?" I finally find someone I love and they're cursed? My heart aches as the news sets in. Kaida fidgets in front of me and I can't help but to feel guilty for my response. She didn't ask for this, she's probably terrified and I acted like this only effected me.
"I'll help you try and break the curse, okay? I promise." She gives me a small, sad smile.
"Thank you Azazel, It really does mean a lot to me." I pull her in for a hug, wanting to just appreciate the moment.
"But, lets not worry about it just yet, lets just watch your show enjoy having finally admitted to having feelings for each other." She laughs in my arms before turning around so her backs to my chest. Letting us spend the rest of our night watching TV and being together, because you never know how long you have with a person.
But, I hope to have forever with her.
