He was a fallen angel. The most beautiful thing to walk down this earth, and you could see it in his eyes, every time he looked at you. Your breath hitched when you caught him looking at you; you had always been shy but you knew that the moment his eyes landed on yours he would be yours.

"what is your name?" he asked in his deep voice, making sure not to break eye contact with you. Your heart stopped for a few seconds, before going back to beating like crazy.
"My name is Evie." your cheeks flushed red as you whispered out your answer, feeling shy all over again and your heart rate quickening. You were so distracted by your thoughts that you didn' even hear his response until he said,
"Evie". The way he uttered your name made you shiver, sending goosebumps across your skin. You weren't one to get flustered easily but this was different because this boy in front of you made everything feel so much more real. You could feel his stare burning holes into your skin, and he never broke his gaze once while you were talking. He seemed mesmerised by you.

"I'm sorry what?" you snapped back into reality as soon as you heard him speak, trying your best to ignore how hot you felt.
"My name is Lucifer. I believe you have some questions?" he leaned against the window sill, still staring right at you. His face was so close to yours it was almost scary, but if you tried hard enough you could tell that underneath his icy exterior was something warm, something genuine. You wanted to know everything about him so badly that it hurt. You couldn't help but notice his lips quirked up slightly, as if he was trying to hold back from saying something else, but you didn't care.
"yes!" you exclaimed, a blush spreading across your cheeks as he chuckled softly. "i've just never met someone like you, and i want to know everything about you!" you admitted, taking a small step closer, as if to get closer to the devil himself. He raised an eyebrow and tilted his head slightly, as if he was intrigued by what you said, or rather, what you hadn't yet said.
"Well, I'm curious about you too." he smiled, looking at you with those golden eyes again, making your insides flip upside down. You took another step towards him, and the second you got closer you could feel yourself blushing even harder. You had no idea what had come over you, but something was telling you that there was something very dangerous about Lucifer. Your curiosity was starting to eat you alive though, so you pressed forwards despite your nervousness. Your hands reached out tentatively and brushed your fingers through his hair, causing Lucifer to gasp. His eyes widened ever so slightly and his mouth fell agape. You couldn't explain why you did it, but you wanted to touch Lucifer, to feel the heat radiating off of him, the way it made you feel safe and secure; the way he felt. 

Lucifer let out a soft sound as you slowly ran your hand through his hair, making the hairs on the back of his neck rise up. You moved your hand from his hair downwards, resting them gently against his cheek, which made his eyes flutter shut. He leaned into your hand slightly and closed his eyes, letting out a long sigh as if he were content.
He turned his head, and your eyes met with each other again, locking gazes like magnets. The way his eyes gazed upon you made your knees weak, and you found yourself leaning forward as well. There was a faint smile on his face as you inched closer, his breath tickling your nose as he continued staring directly into your eyes, making your heart race. It felt like nothing could go wrong when you were around him.

His hand moved from where it rested on the windowsill and placed itself on your waist, pulling you even closer. Your body tingled in excitement and you couldn't stop your breathing from getting heavier. You wanted to kiss him so bad, but you decided to take things slow. You didn't want to scare him off.
"Can i kiss you?" you asked quietly, unable to meet his eyes. His hand slid up and cupped the side of your face, running his thumb along your cheek bone. He nodded slowly, causing butterflies to erupt in your stomach and make you giddy with joy. You closed the distance between the two of you, pressing your lips gently against his.
