RYANS POV
"huh..?" i said confused

the demon sobbed on the floor

is this a act? no no why does it seem so real....

"are-are you alright?" i said ignoring that this was a demon and it could be a act

he looked up at me and i could tell the tears were at least real, he looked like a mess

"w-why do you care?!..i'm just a demon." he said and i felt guilty for some reason

"i-i'm sorry." i say pitying the man

"no.. it's fine. i don't blame you for fearing me"

i reached out my hand and he took it reluctantly

once he was standing again i did the unimaginable

i hugged him

SHANES POV

i hugged the man back in shock

it felt nice to be comforted even if it was in these circumstances

he let go of me and i felt a strange feeling

a feeling that told i could trust him even though he had every reason to hurt me

"i'm sorry for the way i acted..." he said in shame

"it's okay i understand " i reply back with a smile

i remembered randomly that i never got his name

"i forgot, i don't think i ever got your name did i?" i said with a laugh

"ah nope i don't think i ever told you" he said back with a chuckle

"i'm ryan" he said to me with a smile

"i'm shane!" i replied returning the smile

"it's nice to meet you then, shane"

"nice to meet you too" i say happily

"also why exactly can you be hurt...?" ryan questioned him

oh right..wait how does he know?!

"uh how do you know that"

"you're kinda bleeding on my floor.."

"OH-" i stare down and notice the blood

"i never even noticed i was injured-" i said with a laugh

"sorry about your floor haha" i ignored the wounds
i was enjoying having a friendly chat, that can wait

"it's fine"

"ah right you asked why right?"

he nodded

"i was cursed as a child"
"apparently my mom pissed off a witch once and she took it out by punishing one of her children" i smiled and shook my head thinking to myself how stupid it really is

he laughed
"i-i'm sorry for laughing- it's just the way you said it-" he said in between giggles

"it's fine, it really is something isn't it?" i chuckle thinking about it

"yeah- you know my mom once said we come from witches" he said smiling innocently

"really?" i asked raising a eyebrow

"yeah, i never listened though- i couldn't tell if she was messing with me so i never took it seriously"

"you don't seem to take much seriously, besides demons" i say jokingly

"i really don't do i?" he kidded

i chuckled in response

"wait let me treat those wounds real quick" he said

he walked into another room and came out with what looked like a makeshift first aid kit

i walked over to his couch and sat down expecting that would be the easiest for him

he walked over to me and i took off my coat

he began treating my wounds seemly knowing exactly what to do

"you're pretty good at this" i remarked impressed by his skills

"ah i've always been good at this kind of stuff" he replied cleaning and bandaging the last cut that was on my arm

"so you've never like- had training?" i asked intrigued

"oh no, i suppose i'm just good at like..being a doctor?" he laughs

"there you go" he said

"thank you" i replied to him with a smile

he smiled in response

"it's getting late" he said

"ah you're right.." i say and yawned

"can i just sleep on your couch..?" i ask awkwardly

"yeah sure.." he said but i could tell he was uneasy by the idea but i ignored it since i had no where else to go..

"thank you."

he nodded and walked away, i noticed the holy water on the coffee table

how strange... he left his weapon behind

he walks back in with a blanket

he walked over to me with it

"i almost forgot, here's a blanket" he said and handed me the blanket

"thank you"

"you're welcome, goodnight" he said and picked back up the holy water walking away

oh of course- he just forgot the holy water

i laid down on the couch and covered up

and before i knew it i had already fell asleep
