8. angel flight ☆

The angel could feel everything. Every ounce of pain, every mental hardship, and every sexual fantasy he never thought about. A part of him felt unclean, shameful for his acts and thoughts, but whenever Liam showed up all of his doubts vanished into thin air.

Theo wouldn't pretend that all of this wasn't so wrong, but how come it felt so right? The angel began an inner turmoil with himself. He could leave any moment, the time never told. He wanted to stay longer if possible, just enough time to get to know Liam more, but the demon was scarily stoic in all possible ways it was almost impossible to break through to him. Theo didn't quit though, he continued to push.

Now, he sat still. His wings covered him safely knowing very well what is about to go down between Brett and Liam. He hadn't forgot what the other demon had done, and Liam had been rightfully pissed. The injury Theo had suffered put most of them in danger, but mostly Liam himself.

Liam told him before he left that it was best that Theo wasn't aware of what was about to happen to Brett. He didn't want Brett to be injured like he was because the cut on his thigh was healing and he visibly remembered the pain he went through. He shuddered at the though of Brett going through even worse pain. How did people in Hell endure such things? That's a part of Heaven he missed, but not necessarily if Theo was being completely honest.

Pain was a reminder that made Theo feel more than alive, more than an angel.

The tiny prick on his finger completely healed in no time whatsoever. He missed the bit of sting he felt, but he knew it wouldn't last forever. Theo began to get bored, trapped in Liam's house.

All he wanted was for the demon to return and give him attention, teach him more about the Hell and it's secrets. If anyone knew the Hell's secrets, it would be Liam.

Theo unwrapped himself from his wings, fluttering them a little, wishing he could know how to use them, then dropping them down in boredom.

That's when a click at the door was heard. Immediately he perked up, straightening his back and a smile appearing on his face. But the one who entered wasn't Liam but the other ginger demon he met some time ago.

"Hey," he frowned as the girl smiled at him, stalking forward. She was wearing a short black dress, her green eyes looking at him with curiosity.

Theo didn't say anything, he didn't know her as good as he knew other demons, and this girl was... intimidating. She seemed to be powerful, also pretty smart.

"Liam asked me to check on you and take you away for a little bit." she smiled encouragingly, trying to make the angel more comfortable with her presence.

He remained down on the bed, legs crossed and only merely staring up at the demon. The mention of Liam caught his attention.

"When is he coming back?" the angel asked eagerly, green eyes brightening slightly.

"Not for a while. He's busy." she replied, clearly not giving any more reasons why he's not back. Theo knew he must be still busy with Brett.

The brunette huffed impatiently, arms crossing over his chest. A chuckle came from Lydia, amused by Theo's reaction.

"You miss him or something?" she teased, not really prepared for an answer. Although, that's exactly what Theo gave. With an affirmation nod of Theo's head, Lydia released a small 'oh'.

Lydia had a feeling since she saw how Theo and Liam reacted around each other, but she tried to deny it. As if an angel would love someone like Liam. Apparently, she had been more than wrong. Precariously, she had to fix this.
