The Devil On My Shoulder

chapter 7: the plan

* James's POV*

I needed to find Alex and fast. This wasn't good. It was like

everything was falling apart at once. But where would he be? Its

not like I could just march my way down to Hell and demand to

see him. I would have to be crazy. I decided to check back at my

favorite shop. Maybe he would be there.

* Alex's POV*

I paniked. I had just met an amazing person, but I had to betray

him? I barely knew him yet I love him completely. I had to find

him. But what would we do? I had an idea but I needed to get to

James first. I get out of bed and head to the little shop where we

first met as fast as I can.

* James's POV*

I had just reached the shop and caught my breath. I heard the

door open to see the person that I wanted to see the most. There,

standing in the doorway, was Alex.

* Alex's POV*

I opened the door to find James staring at me, probably in shock.

I ran over to him and grabbed his arm. ''We need to leave now.'' I
hissed. ''I'll explain on the way.'' I pulled him out of the store and

brought him to the place where we first kissed. ''What's going

on?'' James asked, slightly confused by Alex's deranged look. ''We
have to leave. Today. Tonight. My master has ordered me to

betray you, but I can't because I love you.''

* James's POV*

I never heard someone talk so fast in my life. ''What are you

talking about?'' I asked. He explained. ''Satan found out what

happened between us. He beat me and then ordered me to

betray you by gathering information, so that we can attack when

the time is right. I won't do that, so we have to leave tonight. We

can disguise ourselfs and live in the human realm.'' I was

shocked and trying to sort all of this out in my mind. We had to

leave? And become rouges? ''I'll come with you.'' I said. I couldnt

let him suffer alone. Suddenly, I came up with an idea. ''What if

we collected the stones and destryed them so that Satan can

never complete his mission?'' I could see Alex's mind whirring

and thinking this through. ''Ok. We will meet back here at

midnight. Alright?'' ''Alright.'' I said. ''We should go now so our

people dont get suspicious.'' He nodded. ''James?'' Alex said.

''Yes?'' I said. As soon as my head turned, Alex leaned over and

kissed me. It was a sweet and passionate kiss. We broke apart for

lack of oxygen. Slightly panting, I asked, ''What was that for?'' ''A

good luck kiss.'' He said, before standing up and leaving. We

would see each other soon. I hope.
